I Just Happened To Fall For You

The presidential suite in the hotel was engulfed in silent darkness.

The air was filled with the afterglow of passion, suggestive and enchanting.

Xu Qiaoqiao hastily got off the bed, her shocked gaze fixed on the man lying there.

Even though she couldn't make out his features in the darkness, she could still feel the powerful aura he emitted, even as he slept.

Xu Qiaoqiao widened her eyes in shock, pressing her hand against her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.

Who was he?

Why were they here?

She remembered being invited to a masquerade ball, had a drink and then found her consciousness blurry.

In her half-awake, half-dream state, she could faintly recall the smell of his masculine hormones, his domineering advances, his forceful conquest...

Those inappropriate images made Xu Qiaoqiao's face turn pale.

Instinctively, she began to fumble in the darkness, putting on her clothes and stumbling towards the door.

The hotel lobby was alive with the masquerade ball in full swing.

With her elegant dress, she swiftly donned the feathered mask in her hand and quickly made her way through the crowd towards the exit.

All she wanted now was to leave this place!

As she left the ball, two figures slowly emerged from the shadows outside the door.

One of them was wearing an identical feathered mask, donning similar formal attire, even the diamond hairpin on her head was identical to that of Xu Qiaoqiao!

Standing behind her was the butler who said: "Miss, she has left. It's your turn now."

The girl heard this, looked in the direction where Xu Qiaoqiao had disappeared with a smile curving her lips, then stepped into the ball...

Xu Qiaoqiao was in a panic, sprinting down the streets until she was far enough from the hotel, then slowed her pace.

With agitation, she ruffled her hair.

Everything that happened tonight was like a dream.

Yes, it was just a dream.

After waking from the dream, it was like nothing had happened.

As for the marks on her body, she could just consider it a dog bite!

That man was obviously rich and noble, while she had just wandered into the ball due to work, a working-class girl.

Their worlds were entirely different, there was no chance for them to meet again.

This was the mantra she repeated to herself, as Xu Qiaoqiao managed to regain her peace.

Distracted, she lifted her head and saw a news flash on the huge TV screen outside the tall building facing her:

"... Xu Mushen, the heir to Emperor Group, has always been mysterious. Upon taking over the reins, he landed the biggest merger deal in S City, stunning the entire business circle!

His queen of fate has also finally appeared tonight! A reporter managed to capture him at a masquerade ball, deeply in love with a wealthy lady. We should very soon hear news about their engagement..."

Accompanying this report was a side-view photo, highlighted on the screen.

The well-defined contours, the cold, thin lips, those gaze that were profound enough to make one's heart race, this still picture emitted a prestigious aura right from the screen.

Xu Qiaoqiao slowly averted her gaze.

Some people are born destined for greatness.

And her, she was nothing more than a common ant among the multitude.
