Why Are You So Adorable

Under the moonlight.

Tao Yaoyao stood there motionless.

The faint moonlight fell on her face, making her look deathly pale.

Lin Yu slowly walked out from a patch of shadow behind her. Looking at Tao Yaoyao's drastically changed outfit tonight, a hint of pleasantly surprised novelty appeared in his eyes.

The current Tao Yaoyao was no longer dressed like the rich college girl she used to be.

It was clear that to save time and avoid unnecessary trouble, her current attire was very simple and professional.

She wore solid black wide-leg trousers for the workplace on the bottom, and a simple white long-sleeved shirt on top.

Her long black hair was simply tied behind her head, making her look sharp and capable.

But Tao Yaoyao seemed to have overlooked an important fact.

That is, whether a person is beautiful or not largely does not depend on their clothes.

A beautiful person wearing a complicated and expensive Lolita dress is like a sweet, soft little cake; wearing a simple and cheap long skirt makes her an ethereal, unattainable beauty.

Even if she wears dirty clothes, people would cheesily call her a princess wandering among the commoners.

As for an unattractive person, no matter how much they dress up, they only hover between being ugly and slightly less ugly.

Tao Yaoyao belonged to the category of very beautiful people, even undeniably gorgeous.

No matter what clothes she wore, they would always look fitting and stunning on her, just like a top-tier fashion model.

Moreover, perhaps because he had stayed in school for too long and seen too many youthful and cute girls.

Seeing Tao Yaoyao in workplace attire this time truly gave Lin Yu a refreshing feeling.

His gaze shifted, and Lin Yu's experienced eyes immediately locked onto a fullness that boasted a golden curve.

Tao Yaoyao had a great figure, something Lin Yu only discovered last week.

After all, she had always dressed in loose long skirts, and most of the time, the truth was hidden beneath the mist.

Her actual measurements might not be exaggerated, but her body proportions were excellent.

Her slender waist accentuated the curves above and below, creating a rather dramatic visual impact.

Right now, she was wearing wide-leg trousers that didn't expose an inch of skin, but beneath this strict conservatism, those plump and alluring curves actually made one's blood pump even faster.

Looking at it made Lin Yu's hands itch for a moment.

However, before making a move, Lin Yu had a question to ask.

"Why didn't you reply to my messages?"

"..."

"...I was too busy today."

"I didn't see them."

After a moment of silence, Tao Yaoyao gave this extremely lame excuse.

Hearing this answer full of holes, Lin Yu felt like laughing.

What a clumsy lie.

But Lin Yu didn't care about Tao Yaoyao's deception.

Just like a little kitten newly brought home, there would always be some mischievous rebellion.

He just needed to train her slowly.

"Alright."

"Since you're off work and not busy now, come with me."

Lin Yu didn't bother to argue with Tao Yaoyao over those trivial matters, intending to get straight to business.

After his words fell, Lin Yu walked towards Tao Yaoyao and quickly passed her.

Tao Yaoyao did not follow Lin Yu.

She stood where she was, looking at Lin Yu's tall and thin back, as if looking at an endless road of no return. The fear buried at the bottom of her heart made a comeback.

The morality in Tao Yaoyao's heart was disgusted by Lin Yu.

But compared to disgust, the fear in her heart was even stronger.

She feared her body's unauthorized fondness for Lin Yu.

She feared that her soul did not reject Lin Yu's despicable actions.

She was truly, truly terrified.

She was afraid that her body and soul would go further and further down this road of no return.

Until one day, they completely defeated her reason.

What kind of person would she become then?

Tao Yaoyao didn't dare to think about it.

She only knew that in order not to turn into a state that even she would despise, all of this had to stop.

Just at the moment Tao Yaoyao made up her mind, Lin Yu up ahead finally realized he was walking forward alone.

He frowned, turned back, and cast a puzzled gaze her way.

"Let's go."

Lin Yu urged.

"I won't go with you."

Tao Yaoyao looked straight at Lin Yu. Hiding her timidity, she spoke softly but firmly.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Yu looked baffled, not understanding what Tao Yaoyao was trying to do.

"Let's just end it here."

Tao Yaoyao continued:

"Whether it's about the job, or whether you want to continue targeting us."

"I won't go with you anymore."

"Let everything end just like this."

After saying these words, Tao Yaoyao looked at Lin Yu somewhat nervously, observing his reaction.

To Tao Yaoyao's surprise.

Lin Yu wasn't furious, nor was he angry.

He laughed.

As if he had heard some funny joke, he let out a pfft and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lin Yu smiled gently.

Tao Yaoyao looked at him, but always felt that there was something hidden in his smile.

It seemed to be...

...

Pity for a fool?

Under the dim moonlight, Lin Yu walked over step by step with a smile on his lips.

He walked right up to Tao Yaoyao, reached out under her gaze that hid tension and fear, gently pinched her cheek, and asked with a smile:

"Tao Yaoyao."

"Why are you so cute?"

Tao Yaoyao didn't know what Lin Yu meant by this, so she made no further moves, allowing him to gently pinch her face.

"Seeing how you look now reminds me of that night."

Lin Yu said, his hand movements turning into a caress. He lowered his head a bit, his nose only a few centimeters away from Tao Yaoyao's.

At this close distance where they could feel each other's breath, Lin Yu ignored the rejection and wariness in Tao Yaoyao's eyes and continued smiling as he spoke:

"You were just as cute that night as you are now."

"I couldn't resist taking a few photos of you."

Even though it was a very gentle voice, falling into Tao Yaoyao's ears, it made her blood run cold.

She widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at the gently smiling devil in front of her, and questioned with a trembling voice:

"How, how could you do that?"

"Why couldn't I do that?"

Lin Yu said with a nonchalant look:

"Just recording the good times."

"Besides, you didn't refuse to let me take them back then, did you?"

"I!"

"..."

Tao Yaoyao stiffened her neck, just about to retort that she knew nothing about it at all, and that the photos were secretly taken when she was unconscious!

But before the words could leave her mouth, the anger in Tao Yaoyao's heart was completely swallowed by an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.

There was no need.

There was no longer any need to argue.

He now held leverage over her. No matter what, it was impossible for her to escape his control anymore.

It was only then that Tao Yaoyao realized with horror that she had already been standing on that road of no return for a long time.

Seeing the light fade from Tao Yaoyao's eyes as she looked completely devastated.

Lin Yu knew that she had accepted reality.

At this moment, Lin Yu couldn't be bothered to pretend to be gentle anymore.

He leaned in a bit closer, lowered his head, and whispered into Tao Yaoyao's ear:

"Tao Yaoyao."

"Since you're already playing the whore, stop pretending to be a saint."

As he spoke, Lin Yu reached his hand around to Tao Yaoyao's backside and gave it a hard squeeze, satisfying the itching urge he had felt earlier.

Mmh.

The feel was even better than he had imagined.

It was on the softer side, yet still retained a nice bounce.

Combined with the silky fabric of her pants, kneading it was quite a stress-reliever.

After getting his fill of groping, Lin Yu straightened up, withdrew his hand, and looked at Tao Yaoyao, whose eyes had grown slightly red at some point. He said:

"Alright."

"If there are no problems, come with me."

Saying that, Lin Yu turned around and prepared to walk away.

"Wait."

Tao Yaoyao's voice came from behind. Lin Yu turned his head to look at her, wondering what she wanted now.

"Can... can we do it tomorrow?"

"It's already too late today."

"If... if I don't go back soon."

"She'll get suspic..."

"..."

"She'll be worried."

Tao Yaoyao had completely given up resisting. She was merely begging pitifully, hoping Lin Yu might show a little understanding for her difficult situation.

And not make things too hard for her.

"No."

Lin Yu rejected Tao Yaoyao's plea without a moment's hesitation, saying coldly:

"I sent you the message this afternoon."

"If you had chosen to be obedient then, none of this would be happening."

"You are the one who made a mistake."

"So I won't bear any responsibility for you."

"All you can do right now is pray that Xu Mingyao is already asleep."

"Otherwise."

"You'd better start thinking up a good excuse to deal with her."

Tao Yaoyao's face turned even paler.

Lin Yu, on the other hand, stretched his back, rolled his slightly stiff neck, and complained:

"I've waited for you for so long that I don't have much energy left."

"So, I'll leave the initiative to you later."

"I'm going to take a rest."

Hearing this, Tao Yaoyao instantly threw her previous concerns to the back of her mind and said anxiously:

"I've been working all day."

"I'm really tired right now too."

"I... I can't do it."

In truth, let alone working all day, even if she had rested all day, Tao Yaoyao still wouldn't be able to handle him.

She was so exhausted right now she could barely stand, yet he still wanted her to take the lead.

How could she possibly do that?

"You can't do it?"

Lin Yu looked at Tao Yaoyao, blinking his eyes innocently as he said:

"Then if something accidentally slips into Xu Mingyao's hands, don't blame me."

"After all, when a man can't fully release his tension, his temper flares up."

"And when his temper flares up, it's easy for him to do irrational things."

Listening to Lin Yu's naked, unvarnished threat.

Tao Yaoyao's heart turned to ashes. How could she dare to bargain anymore? She could only submit to Lin Yu in resignation, muttering in a low voice:

"I... I understand."
