Chapter 297: Sharing Some of Your Worries
Xia Shiyi ran back to her room, shut the door, and immediately began wiping her tears.She just felt so wronged.
She took out her phone and called Yang Shurong.
"Mommy, I just tried to test Ou Jue at the restaurant. He’s still as cold to me as before. Why was Xia Xiyan able to do it before, but I can’t? How am I any worse than Xia Xiyan? I really can’t accept this!"
"Who said you’re worse than Xia Xiyan? Xia Xiyan’s mother was a filthy wench, and a filthy wench’s little brat dares to compare herself to my daughter? Hah!"
"But what should I do now?"
"Don’t worry. Right now, we’re in the better position. Luckily, Young Master Ou has lost his memory and doesn’t remember Xia Xiyan or anything we did before. For now, don’t rush back home. You must win over Young Master Ou and take everything Xia Xiyan once had!"
Xia Shiyi clenched her fists.
Yes, this was truly a heaven-sent opportunity.
No matter what it took, she had to win Ou Jue over and completely humiliate Xia Xiyan!

When Ou Jue returned to the hotel after finishing his work at the company, it was already late at night.
His team had already found a location for an apartment, so he could leave the hotel tomorrow.
Back in his suite, Ou Jue casually tugged at his tie and let himself collapse onto the sofa.
He ordered room service.
A short while later, a server wheeled in a cart with food and wine, carefully arranged the plates, and then respectfully left.
Ou Jue had unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt collar, exposing his alluring collarbone. Sitting there with a wine glass, he gently swirled the red wine.
In the dim lighting, his sharply defined facial features appeared even more captivating.
The air of aloof elegance and restraint came naturally to him.
His pitch-black eyes were fixed on his phone.
He was waiting for a call.
Waiting for that fool’s call.
Because that fool had said she’d call him before noon.
It was already noon back home—12 p.m. precisely.
So, what exactly did "before noon" mean?
He had waited all day! And that fool still hadn’t called.
Was she doing this on purpose?!
Ou Jue cursed softly under his breath.
How had he fallen to the point of sitting around like this, just waiting for a little girl’s call?
He tilted his head back and took a sip of wine, his Adam’s apple shifting sensuously as he swallowed.
Then, placing the wine glass down, he reached for his phone.
The next second, the doorbell rang again.
Ou Jue frowned, walked over, and opened the door.
Xia Shiyi stood outside in a seductive dress. "Young Master Ou, I’ve been waiting for you all night. You finally came back..."
"Why is it you again?" Ou Jue’s voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.
"I know you’ve been busy with work at the company, so I wanted to keep you company and help ease some of your worries," Xia Shiyi said with a gentle smile, leaning closer as she spoke meaningfully. "I mean... a man’s worries."
The fragrance on her body was overwhelming.
Ou Jue’s expression grew darker. "Are you seeking death?"
"Young Master Ou, don’t be so cold to me... I really like you."
Ou Jue had no interest in wasting words with her and planned to shut the door right away.
But in the next moment, dizziness overwhelmed him.
He quickly supported himself against the wall and shook his head forcefully.
Damn it, what had this woman done?!
Xia Shiyi’s heart leapt with glee.
Moments earlier, when the server delivered Ou Jue’s meal, she had tampered with it.
She had spiked the wine with something that would make Young Master Ou fall for her.
She leaned closer, feigning concern. "Young Master Ou, are you okay?"
As she spoke, she intentionally brushed against Ou Jue’s arm...
-
Tonight, Xia Shiyi was wearing a red mini-dress.
A deep V-neckline.
Even in the dead of night, her makeup was impeccably done.
She looked like a seductive temptress stealing souls in the dark.
Ou Jue had never experienced such a sensation before; his mind was in chaos.
It felt as though the strength in his body was slowly slipping away.
Heat—an indescribable, burning heat—coursed through his entire body.
And it only grew stronger by the second.
One hand braced against the wall, he pushed Xia Shiyi away with the other, his chest rising and falling as he panted, "Get out!"
But unfortunately, he barely had the strength to stand, let alone push her away.
Instead of being pushed back, Xia Shiyi took the opportunity to throw her arms around him.
In that simple embrace, Xia Shiyi’s heart raced uncontrollably.
This was the closest she had ever been to Ou Jue.
The scent on his body—it smelled so good.
"Let me help you inside..." Xia Shiyi said, stepping forward to guide him, her long legs carrying him as she held him up.
She used her foot to gently kick the door shut behind them.
With a soft click, the room was completely sealed.
Stumbling and staggering, she guided Ou Jue to the leather sofa in the living room. The plush cushion sank beneath the weight of their bodies, and Xia Shiyi fell conveniently into Ou Jue’s arms.
The overpowering scent of male pheromones surrounded her, making Xia Shiyi giddy with excitement.
At that moment, Ou Jue suddenly turned over, trapping her beneath him.
Xia Shiyi was ecstatic. "Young Master Ou, are you finally willing to hold me? I’m so happy."
But the next second, he clamped his hand tightly around her neck. "You dare drug me?"
Xia Shiyi’s inner smugness flared.
Yes, she had drugged him.
Double the dose.
Even if Young Master Ou had extraordinary self-control, it wouldn’t matter. He’d need to let it out, no matter what.
At this point, even if an unattractive woman were in front of him, he wouldn’t be able to resist!
Let alone her—someone blessed with such extraordinary beauty...
Though Ou Jue was trying to hold himself together, she could clearly feel his composure slipping away.
This young man was a proud lion; he was merely putting on a brave face.
She shook her head, wrapping her arms around Ou Jue’s neck with an incredibly innocent expression and a sultry voice. "I didn’t..."
Damn it!
Ou Jue collapsed back onto the sofa, using his arm to shield half of his handsome face.
She knew this was a do-or-die move on her part.
But she just couldn’t let this chance slip away.
Fame and fortune? She didn’t care for any of it.
The only reason she wanted to be a star was to capture Ou Jue’s attention and thoroughly trample Xia Xiyan underfoot!
Now, she had succeeded.
Xia Xiyan, starting today, Ou Jue is mine!
You’re destined to be defeated by me!
Xia Shiyi edged closer once again. "Young Master Ou, let me help you..."
