Chapter 1 - A Beautiful Misunderstanding
Chapter 1: A Beautiful Misunderstanding
August 31st, 2020
In the presidential suite of a five-star hotel in Nan’an City, a pile of women’s clothes scattered around the large bedroom.
On the bed, a couple in a state of blissful sleep, though considering the time, they should be waking up soon.
“Ah!!”
A deafening scream pierced through the sky! Liu Le also woke up from his deep slumber, looking at the clock in confusion; it was already ten in the morning.
Well, he still had two hours left.
But he was still a bit confused about the situation, as the woman beside him let out a pig-like scream.
“You, you, you! How dare you be in my bed!”
Tang Anqi, the only daughter of the Tang family, the first conglomerate in Nan’an City.
Liu Le didn’t ask her name, but he could see through her completely.
As Liu Le, who had been awakened by the commotion, lit a cigarette, his solid eight-pack abs were visible against the headboard.
“What’s with all the noise? Acting like you’ve been wronged so much, weren’t you the one enjoying yourself last night?”
Comfortably taking a drag of his cigarette, he looked towards the girl wrapped tightly in the blanket next to him.
She was extremely beautiful, a sight Liu Le rarely encountered, with exceptionally tender skin as if a breeze could create ripples, and a pair of lively eyes filled with anger.
This is interesting, in my thousand years, I’ve been with over ten thousand women, experienced so much, and waking up to someone looking so angry as if they’ve suffered a great loss is a first.
“You! What… What did we do last night?!”
Tang Anqi was immensely aggrieved, asking a foolish question.
Liu Le answered her with actions, lifting the blanket off her, revealing her body; what they did didn’t need words.
“Ah!!”
Another scream that seemed to break through the heavens, but this time Liu Le was prepared, covering his ears in advance.
Out for a night of clubbing, isn’t this beyond the script?
Am I not good enough for you?
Though he did take a slight advantage last night, he saw someone trying to drug Tang Anqi, intervened, and brought her to the hotel.
Unexpectedly, Tang Anqi still looked unwilling. Do you think I’m willing?
After finishing his cigarette, Liu Le heard sobbing from the girl beside him, making him panic, “Don’t cry, I can’t stand seeing women cry.”
Tang Anqi cried out while yelling at him, “Mind your own business! Get out! Don’t stay here!”
As the only daughter of the chairman of Nan’an City’s first conglomerate, she was highly cherished.
She often fantasized about being a princess, awaiting the arrival of a prince one day.
Even if there were no prince, she’d settle for a handsome knight riding a horse to rescue her from suffering, and she’d give herself to him happily.
Never did she expect that her first time sneaking off to a club would end up like this?
“Sigh, it’s the first time I’ve seen a girl like you. We’ve done it, but don’t expect me to take responsibility for you.”
His words shocked Tang Anqi into forgetting her tears; what kind of shameless person could say such things?
What do you mean by ‘we’ve done it, but don’t expect me to take responsibility?
Liu Le felt he was too much of a scumbag, so he added, “Actually, I do want to take responsibility for you, but I can’t because after noon tomorrow, my day will reset, and if I don’t sleep with you, you’re done for.”
“Let me explain, I’m trapped by a curse on August 31st. After noon, you won’t know me anymore, and I’ll keep repeating today.”
Tang Anqi’s lively eyes stared at him, her skin so good, he almost couldn’t resist kissing her again.
Well, obviously, she didn’t buy into such a ridiculous reason.
But it’s all true! I’m the biggest victim in this world!
“What a refreshing excuse, you scumbag! Get out! Do you know who I am? You think you can take responsibility for me? Get out!”
The girl kicked hard at Liu Le with her long legs, not caring if she exposed herself. Liu Le, who was kicked off the bed, smirked and started dressing himself.
“Whether you believe it or not, what I said is true. I don’t care if you believe it or not, anyway, everything will reset after noon.”
Saying that, Liu Le walked back to the bed, startling Tang Anqi.
Is this guy going to do something to me again?
Last night, she didn’t feel much due to the effects of the drugs, but she didn’t want to be violated again today! Holding the blanket tightly, she kicked at Liu Le with her legs! “Get out! If you dare touch me again, I’ll have you thrown in jail!”
Unfortunately, Liu Le wasn’t buying it; he was already close enough to her, even though he was kneeling on the bed, she could clearly see his long eyelashes.
Tang Anqi was scared, really scared.
There were only the two of them in the room, and she wasn’t even dressed. She was like a piece of meat on a chopping board; would he do whatever he wanted with her?
“Please, I beg you! Don’t touch me! I’m still sore; if you leave me alone, I promise not to blame you!”
“Little girl, what are you saying?”
Liu Le wrapped her in the blanket, pushing her aside to reveal the shirt he was wearing, which belonged to him.
Seeing that she was just fussing over a piece of clothing, Tang Anqi blushed a little, feeling embarrassed.
She was about to put on her clothes and leave, why overthink it? Pulling out the clothes, she noticed something under the clothes, making him pause.
He thought clubbing girls wouldn’t be virgins, even if she was acting like this, Liu Le didn’t feel any guilt.
But seeing this, he truly felt guilty; he drank some last night and didn’t even notice.
“Um… I’m really sorry, I didn’t know who you were… but it’s okay, after noon, everything will reset.”
“Get out! You scumbag!”
Liu Le shuddered and quickly fled the presidential suite.
It was quite embarrassing; trapped for a thousand years, he had always refrained from touching young girls because he genuinely couldn’t take responsibility for them.
A full thousand years, and he was a man without a tomorrow.
After paying the room fee, leaving only three yuan and fifty cents in his pocket, Liu Le resolutely walked into the bar.
“Give me the best drinks you have here! Money’s no issue for me!”
Hearing this, the bartender’s eyes lit up. Business was already bad today, but now he had a rich client! He quickly brought out the best drinks from the bar.
Without waiting for the bartender to ask, Liu Le said nonchalantly, “All of them! Bring all of them!”
Anyway, as long as he drank enough for an hour, the time would reset, so who cares about the bill? Sipping his drink and checking the time, enjoying every second, he watched as the clock on the bar cabinet approached 12 o’clock. For Liu Le, everything would reset after one hour, so he would be refreshed by then.
But before that, there was something he needed to do.
He quickly finished his drink, knowing it was expensive! Ding! Liu Le disappeared, or rather, the whole world disappeared.
In the pitch-black space, a voice, as if from heaven, sounded in Liu Le’s ears.
“Have you considered it carefully?”
