C14 Beat Dong Xuehai Up!

"Damn it!" After a brief silence, Lee Wen clenched his fists and delivered a punch to Dong Xuehai's face. Dong Xuehai let out a yelp and was sent crashing into the wall before sliding to the floor.

Lee Wen charged at him, lifted him by the collar, and with a fierce swing, slammed him down onto the unforgiving floor.

Thud!

Crack!

The solid thump of flesh hitting the floor and the chilling sound of breaking bones echoed simultaneously. Dong Xuehai, still conscious despite his bloodied mouth, desperately clutched at Lee Wen's feet, pleading, "Brother, spare my life. I'll give you anything you want... Please, I'm begging you..."

"Spare you? No way!" Lee Wen interrupted, hammering his fist down on Dong Xuehai's head as if it cost him nothing. "You dare to make a move on the woman I, Lee Wen, am interested in? You're asking for it. If you dare to pull any stunts again, I'll end you!"

"Wuwu... I was wrong, it hurts so much... Please, I'm begging you..." Dong Xuehai's pleas were garbled and desperate. "Please stop hitting me, I realize my mistake. I'll give you anything you want. Another hit could be fatal..."

Bang! Lee Wen looked down at his disfigured head and kicked him under the sofa with disdain. "Why did you drug her?"

Just three minutes earlier, Lee Wen had been idly watching TV and sipping tea in the downstairs office, his mind elsewhere, wondering about the discussions happening upstairs. Deciding to investigate, he switched off the TV and left the office. His enhanced senses picked up the muffled conversation from the upstairs office, and with a sense of foreboding, he made his way to the second floor.

The closer he got, the clearer the voices became. So, when the moment of crisis arrived, he didn't hesitate to use his brute strength to burst through the sturdy security door and confront the situation.

"It's my fault... I shouldn't have... Right, I deserve to die, I shouldn't have listened to Gao Zheng's advice!" Dong Xuehai, barely able to open his eyes, gasped weakly. "It was all Gao Zheng's idea, the appraiser from Tingyu House. I was momentarily deluded... I apologize to Ms. Ye. I know I was wrong. Please, I'm begging you, let me go..."

Clang.

Ye Tingyu snapped out of her shock to the sound of something crisp. Her gaze was unfocused as she, overwhelmed with emotion, marched up to Dong Xuehai and delivered a swift kick to his groin.

"Ah..." Dong Xuehai let out a squeal akin to a pig being slaughtered, yet, by some incredible willpower, he managed not to pass out.

"Spill it! What's the deal between you and Gao Zheng, or I swear I'll kick you to death!" Ye Tingyu perched on the sofa, gripping her palms tightly to maintain her lucidity, the struggle evident on her face. "Come clean, and I'll spare you!"

"Gao Zheng... that animal knew I fancied you. He concocted a scheme a month ago... I deserve to die. Please, I'm begging you to let me go!" Dong Xuehai slumped, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, eyes shut as he spoke. "A month back, he smashed a vase in the store, knowing you'd bring it to me for repair, and then I... I'm a dead man!"

Overcome with emotion, Dong Xuehai began to sob, seemingly consumed with remorse for his actions.

"Lee Wen... water... I need water," Ye Tingyu, her nerves stretched to breaking point, finally let down her guard and slumped onto the sofa, deflated.

"Got it!" Lee Wen quickly handed her a glass of cold water.

"Take me home..."

"Right away!" Lee Wen scooped her up without a second thought and made for the door.

"Wait..." Ye Tingyu's arms snaked around Lee Wen's neck as she whispered laboriously into his ear, "Break... break a few of his fingers for me..."

Lee Wen let out a light laugh. "His... arms are already broken!"

"Quick... take me home, to Xiangjiang Villa District, number 30..." Ye Tingyu's eyes were glazed, her voice wavered, and her hands began to caress Lee Wen's sturdy chest uncontrollably.

"Ye, you've been poisoned!" Lee Wen, ignoring the delicate touch of her hands, dashed toward the road, urgently saying, "We need to get you to a hospital!"

"No, not the hospital... It's too shameful!" Ye Tingyu's cheeks flushed a deeper shade, as red as a perfectly ripe apple. "I have the Thousand Medicine Detoxification Pill at home."

Night had fallen, and Lee Wen successfully hailed a taxi. With the driver casting curious glances their way, they headed to the Xiangjiang Villa District, just a short drive away.

Amidst the security guard's bewildered questioning, Lee Wen carried the disheveled Ye Tingyu to Villa No. 30. He retrieved the key from her bag and unlocked the door.

"Where's your room?" Lee Wen asked, having secured the door behind them. He proceeded to carry Ye Tingyu from room to room in search of hers.

"The second floor..." Back in the comfort of her own home, Ye Tingyu unleashed her unrestrained desire. Memories of Lee Wen's repeated rescues flashed through her mind, and driven by the drug's effects, she impulsively kissed his cheek twice.

Her cheeks, already flushed, now blazed a trail of red to her neck, making her irresistibly attractive.

"Sister Ye... please, don't..." Lee Wen hurried upstairs, found Ye Tingyu's room, and gently placed her on the plush bed. "You're not thinking clearly right now. If you still feel the same when you're sober... I, I... Release me, I need to find an antidote for you!"

"Lee Wen... I feel so hot, itchy... it's unbearable!" Ye Tingyu was beyond listening. She wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, trying to press her body against his. Her large, dewy eyes gazed at him as she whispered breathlessly, "Please, hold me... hold me tight..."

Confronted with such exquisite beauty, Lee Wen's heart quaked, and he was overcome with desire. Unable to contain himself any longer, he let out a growl and tore open Ye Tingyu's professional suit jacket, followed by her crisp white shirt. Her full, pale breasts sprang free.

With eyes aflame, Lee Wen was overwhelmed by the subtle scent emanating from Ye Tingyu's skin, obliterating any last shred of his resolve. He drew in a sharp breath and indulged in her allure.

"Ah..." Ye Tingyu's soft exclamation filled the room as she felt a wave of relief from the intense heat and itchiness within her. She felt utterly soothed, her hands pressing firmly against Lee Wen's head as she gasped for air. "Don't stop!"
