The servant just happened to push open the door and walk in, followed by a few other servants.

When she thought of her body wrapped in the quilt, which was still vacuum, she couldn't help but wrap the quilt more tightly around her.

"Miss Pei, I'm sorry, I was careless. These are all new and clean clothes. Please take a look and see if there is anything you like."

The servant standing in front of them said, while gesturing for a few servants behind him to bring in a coat hanger.

Clothes?

Pei Luoyi pondered for a moment. Did that man just ask a servant to bring her some clothes?

Thinking about it, this was the only possibility. Otherwise, how could a servant just happen to deliver clothes here?

She couldn't tell what it was like for a moment.

After all, ten minutes ago she had been secretly cursing him for his bad behavior.

Pei Luoyi had a complicated expression on her face as she looked at the row of servants standing in front of her. Then, she recalled that she was only wearing a towel. Although they were all women, it was still awkward for her to show her arms and legs in front of strangers.

Except for the accident that had caught her by surprise.

"Thank you. I'll change clothes later. Can I invite you guys to …" With an embarrassed smile, she gestured to the servants in the direction of the door.

The servant nodded, naturally understanding.

The door closed up.

Pei Luoyi heaved a sigh of relief, lifted the blanket from her body, and got off the bed. She casually picked out a long skirt from the clothes rack.

He frowned.

Supreme Celestial wasn't her style.

She had always liked a simple style. Compared to this kind of dress, which had a fairy quality to it, she preferred crisp shirts and a pair of ladies' trousers. If she wanted to relax, she would change into a pair of nine-cent jeans.

However, with a single glance, she was pretty much certain that pants wouldn't appear.

As he was picking and choosing, his gaze landed on a box at the side.

Opening it, her expressionless face was instantly flushed red.

Pei Luoyi was stunned for three seconds before regaining her senses.

A set of champagne coloured underwear was lying quietly in the box...

It took only a glance to know it was her size.

How much experience did a man need to have in order to see through a woman?

Pei Luoyi could not help but shudder.

After shaking off the goosebumps all over her body, she quickly changed her clothes.

She chose a light blue dress with two buttons on her neck, revealing a delicate collarbone and a white swan neck. She wore a belt of the same color with a slit on her knee, revealing her two slender and straight legs, adding a hint of flirtatiousness and freshness.

After changing clothes, she casually picked up a pair of bare high heels and put them on. Unsurprisingly, it fit her very well.

She had just put down her comb when there was a knock on the door.

She furrowed her brows. She suspected that there were surveillance cameras in the room. Otherwise, why would the servants be so adept at monitoring the situation?

"Come in."

It was still the same servant who came in, and he had the same polite smile on his face.

"Miss Pei, Mister Gong wants you to leave."

"He called me?" Pei Luoyi furrowed her brows. She thought back to how he had entered with an evil and fiendish expression on his face and refused to let her leave. It seemed like he still had something he wanted to do to her.

She pursed her lips and followed the servant down to the living room. The man was leaning lazily against the sofa, his bony fingers curled against his forehead.

Hearing the sound of her coming down the stairs, Gong Yan's eyelids slightly twitched, just like the faint chill in the air.

Glancing at her new outfit, his eyes couldn't help but freeze for a moment. His slightly open collar revealed a large area of pure white, flawless skin. The two long, slender legs on the lower half of her body, along with the color of her shoes, accentuated her clean and beautiful temperament.

Pei Luoyi did not notice his momentary absent-mindedness as she leisurely walked in front of him. Her small face revealed a trace of impatience, "Mister Gong, thank you for the clothes. I will transfer the money to your account. If there's nothing else …"

"Sign the agreement."

The man withdrew his gaze from her body and shifted it onto her elegant and beautiful face. He raised his chin slightly, indicating that she should take a look at the documents on the tea table.

Pei Luoyi looked at the sheet of black and white paper and could not help but feel a twinge of pain on her forehead. This old fox of the mall sure had an extraordinary way of doing things … To think that she wanted to get away with it first.

Despite her headache, Pei Luoyi still managed to neatly sign her name at the end of the document, despite having a headache. She stared into the man's increasingly dark and dangerous eyes.

Before she could take another look at the frames, a large palm reached in front of her and grabbed a corner, pulling it out of her hand.

Gong Yan looked at the name she signed at the end of the page, then handed it to one of his subordinates.

"Let's go."

He took the staff from the servant and walked towards the direction of the gate with his back straight.

"Wait, where are we going? I've already signed the contract, so you should let me leave now, right? "

Pei Luoyi kept up with his pace, and her face revealed a rare look of anxiety.

She had already done what he asked, so what was she supposed to do?

He had called Xin Yi from the security booth earlier, but before he could explain the situation, he was dragged away. Now that he couldn't find her, he would definitely worry about her.

The wide figure in front of her suddenly stopped. Pei Luoyi stumbled in her haste and ran into him.

"Hiss …"

She rubbed the tip of her nose, which was hurting from the collision, and took a big step back.

However, before she could open her mouth, the man in front of her turned around, his cold gaze fixed onto her face. "You also know that the contract has been signed. Right now, you have no right to disobey my orders."

"Heh." Pei Luoyi let out a cold laugh and flung down her hand that was rubbing her nose. She looked back fearlessly, her tone light and clear, but her voice powerful, "Mister Gong, I'm not your dog."

The atmosphere was ignited almost instantly, like two streaks of lightning interweaving in the air, creating the most intense sparks.

After a long while, the servant who was standing aside was so nervous that his forehead started sweating.

The man's clear and indifferent voice slowly sounded, "Before the agreement was signed, you may not have been. But now."

He let out a cold laugh. "It doesn't make any difference."

It was as if she were really just a dog he was raising.

Pei Luoyi's chest swelled up as if something was trying to tear open her chest. Her fingers that were hanging at her side were clenched so tightly that her nails were about to dig into the tender flesh of her palm.

In contrast to her furious appearance, the man's face was filled with indifference. His handsome features were as calm as water, and even his eyes were indifferent.

He turned around and walked away. It was only when he was far away that Pei Luoyi heard his voice, which was neither hurried nor slow.

"If you don't want to sleep in the basement tonight, then get the hell over here."

She stared at the figure that had walked away, her face showing a hint of patience. Finally, she loosened her grip on her fingers and walked out.
