Fang Erlan immediately turned red upon hearing his words and vehemently denied, "I'm not bothered at all!"
"What are you waiting for, then? Come and massage me now. Are you thinking of making me sleep on the same bed as you tonight?"
Fang Erlan removed her coat and kicked her shoes off before straddling his back."You want a massage, right? I'll give you a good one today!" she exclaimed.
Yan Ge felt a heavy weight on his back as she began massaging him with all her might.
"Just give me a massage properly. What are you sitting on top of me for?"
"It's uncomfortable to stand. I prefer sitting down. Are you not willing to continue? If that's the case, you may leave."
"..."
During the massage, Fang Erlan's body was moving about continuously and rubbing against his lower back.
Yan Ge's breath quickened as he felt a growing bulge in his pants.
He turned his head to look at Fang Erlan and asked, "Don't tell me, did you lose your first kiss to me during that kiss scene we filmed today?"
"Who... who said so? I'm an experienced kisser. What do you mean first kiss? What a joke, " she denied zealously.
"Oh? You're experienced? Why didn't you know how to French kiss then?" he questioned, not believing her at all.
"Are you very proud of yourself just because you know how to?"
She sneered and clenched her fists tightly before slamming them down onto his back, causing Yan Ge to feel as if his bones were coming apart.
He finally understood what "asking for trouble" meant.
Yan Ge turned around, causing Fang Erlan, who was straddling him, to be thrown off balance. She almost fell to the side but soon sat back onto him, thanks to her reasonable sense of balance. However... things began to get awkward.
She felt a stiff bulge sticking up against her.
Fang Erlan immediately blushed red upon realizing what it was and hurriedly got off his body.
Yan Ge looked at her with a smirk and asked, "Why aren't you sitting on me anymore?"
"Go back to your room and get some rest, " she said, tucking herself beneath the sheets and avoiding eye contact with him while resting her head against the headboard.
"Will you still give me massages in the future?"
It seemed he wouldn't leave until she said yes.
"Yes."
"What if you go back on your word again?"
"I won't."
He finally stood up and left. Fang Erlan heaved a long sigh of relief the moment he closed the door. The more she thought about it, the harder her heart pounded.
Fang Erlan suffered from insomnia for the rest of the night.

"Your Majesty, here's the call record, " said the secretary, who handed Tuoba Gucheng a piece of paper.
A sullen expression formed on Tuoba Gucheng's face after scrutinizing the content.
He crushed the piece of paper into a ball and said coldly, "You may go out."
"Yes."
Tuoba Gucheng stood up with a grave expression and walked toward the window with his hands behind his back. Staring out of the window, he pondered over his thoughts for a while and soon got an idea.
During lunch, he asked Lin Shishi about her relatives, "Do you have any female relatives between the age of 20 to 30 who are single and unmarried?"
Rather taken aback and puzzled, Lin Shishi answered, "My aunt's only daughter, who is also my cousin, fits that category. She's 27 years old this year, unmarried, and hasn't had a boyfriend before. I heard from my aunt that she holds her expectations high, is pretty, and has an established career. Naturally, she would want to pick an outstanding man to be her spouse."
"What qualifications does she have and what kind of job does she do?"
"She just graduated a year ago with a Master's Degree in finance. She now works for a multinational corporation. Hubby, what are you asking about these for?" Lin Shishi asked out of curiosity.
"I'm planning to arrange a marriage for someone, " he said calmly.
"Who?"
"Jin Qingyan."
"What!?!" Lin Shishi exclaimed in bewilderment. Why does he want to arrange a marriage for Jin Qingyan? Do they even know each other well? They're barely even friends. Why does he want to do that?
"You're making me confused. Why are you arranging a marriage for Jin Qingyan out of the blue?" she asked in puzzlement.
"As the leader of the Jin Corporation, Jin Qingyan is a valuable asset to the nation. Do I need another reason to arrange a good marriage for him? Where's your cousin now?" he asked.
"In A City."
"I'll be making a trip down to A City to discuss something with Jin Qingyan. Come along with me."
Lin Shishi was pleased to hear his offer. Beaming with joy at the thought of being able to go home, she agreed gleefully, "Sure!"
It may be a promising marriage between Jin Qingyan and Cousin, but Jin Qingyan is An Xiaoning's ex-husband. Wouldn't that be a little inappropriate, then?
However, she did not voice her question and instead called home after having her meal.
Tuoba Guchenga and Lin Shishi had always traveled back to A City by car. However, they decided to opt for the private jet this time in order to save time.
Lin Shishi's aunt, uncle, and cousin were already present by the time they arrived at the Lin family home.
Needless to say, no one would dare to be late when meeting the president.
Tuoba Gucheng scanned Lin Shishi's cousin, who was dressed in business-casual attire, from head to toe to discover that she was rather tall and had exquisite features, as well as long, curly locks that cascaded down her shoulders. She was rather pleasant-looking and easy on the eyes.
"Shishi, what's your cousin's name?" he asked with a face of gentleness.
"Her name is Feng Qiubai."
Feng Qiubai nodded in accordance.
"I heard from Shishi that you're single at the moment and that you've never had a boyfriend before. Is that true?"
"Your Majesty, it's true, " Feng Qiubai answered with a smirk.
"Would you be willing to marry Jin Qingyan if I set you up with him? I'll respect your decision and I definitely wouldn't force you if you're not, " he said calmly.
"I'd be willing, " Feng Qiubai answered.
The whole world was aware of Jin Qingyan's past marital status. However, she did not mind it at all.
"Well, that's great, then. I'll head over to Jin Qingyan's place now. Wait for my news, " said Tuoba Gucheng, who left soon after he just arrived.
Noticing how eager and anxious he was, such that it seemed like he came to A City personally just for this matter, Lin Shishi could not help but think to herself, Just what has their marriage have to do you?
Lin Shishi's aunt asked softly, "Shishi... Did His Majesty come here to do this because you told him that your cousin was not married yet?"
Lin Shishi had no choice but to admit, "When we were chatting idly, my husband asked me if I had any unmarried female relatives and so I mentioned Cousin to him. He said that he could arrange a marriage for her and decided to do it today since he happened to be coming here for some work matters."
"Oh, I see. His Majesty really treats Shishi so well, he's even extended his kind gestures to us. I was just feeling troubled because this wretched lass refuses to settle for anyone she deems unworthy of her. Yet she actually agreed to marry a man like Jin Qingyan who's divorced with a child, " said Lin Shishi's aunt, who was over the moon.
"Mother, don't be so prejudiced against divorcees. Just because his marriage had failed and he has a child, it doesn't mean he can't have the right to pursue his true happiness. I value the man's character and personality over these superficial attributes, " Feng Qiubai said straightforwardly.
"I know you've always been an objective person with your own set of principles."
While they were having a chat, Madam Lin pulled Lin Shishi upstairs and said, "Jin Qingyan is Xiaoning's ex-husband, you silly child. Can't you tell your husband to set Qiubai up with someone else? Jin Qingyan is not the only capable and promising man around."
