Shanshan is Coming Fiction
Shanshan is Coming

Nashan suddenly felt her waist being held against the wall, and a familiar scent hit her face. It was Baili Rui. Before she could react, her mouth was covered, and he kissed her forcefully, almost like a punishment, causing her lips to ache. Why did this man forcefully kiss her again? The pain in her lips made Nashan gasp. Baili Rui's lips left hers, and he looked at her slightly bloodied lips, lightly brushing them with his fingers. Nashan's large eyes were a bit scared, confused, and angry. Baili Rui stared into Nashan's eyes with heat in his breath as he said, 'Bailey Xiao, Shen Wei, who else is there? Was I underestimating you a little?' Nashan blinked, her long eyelashes seeming to hit Baili Rui's face, and asked in confusion, 'What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying.' 'You better not play games with emotions,' Baili Rui threatened. A one-on-one encounter, no abuse throughout. A high-quality piece of literature.
