A man trying to seduce the police captain: Captain Lu, you're doomed!

Lu Chenyuan did not give her a chance to hesitate.

Before she could think it through, Lu Chenyuan reached out his right hand again, grabbed her waist, and before she could struggle, he lifted her up steadily with one hand, while his left hand still held her high heels.

His tone carried a certain undeniable authority, yet also a hint of tender affection.

"Don't hesitate, it's just for a little while."

Su Wan gasped and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck again.

Her cheek pressed against his chest, feeling his steady heartbeat, the resistance in her heart gradually faded, leaving only a deep tension and panic, even her fingertips were trembling slightly.

Lu Chenyuan carried her and stepped into the apartment building, pressing the elevator button.

The elevator arrived quickly.

The door opened, and a young couple was standing inside.

They were embracing tightly, kissing passionately.

They didn't even realize the elevator had reached the first floor.

Their lips intertwined, and the faint sound of water droplets could be heard, completely unaware of the two people at the elevator door.

A barely perceptible look of surprise flashed across Lu Chenyuan's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

In the past, he would have found such intimate scenes jarring and vulgar, and felt impatient with them.

But now, as he looked down at Su Wan in his arms, a gentle smile instantly appeared in his eyes.

She used to be bolder and more passionate than this girl.

Su Wan also saw the couple in the elevator and heard the embarrassing kissing sounds, and her cheeks instantly became even hotter.

She instinctively shrank into Lu Chenyuan's arms, burying her face in his hands, revealing only her bloodshot eyes.

She bit her lip and muttered something under her breath.

"This is truly an eyesore..."

Her tone carried a hint of shyness and a touch of awkwardness, but a hint of envy quietly flickered in her eyes.

I envy their unbridled nature, I envy their complete lack of scruples.

But when she thought about the entanglement between herself and Lu Chenyuan, a bitter feeling welled up in her heart.

Hearing her muttering, Lu Chenyuan's smile deepened. He gently patted her back with his fingertips, his movements incredibly tender, and teased her in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

"What? Are you envious?"

Su Wan suddenly looked up, glared at him, her cheeks flushed, her eyes filled with shyness and anger, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, and could only retort in a low voice.

"Who's envious! I'm not!"

Just then, the couple finally let go of each other, their cheeks flushed. When they saw Lu Chenyuan and Su Wan in front of the elevator, a hint of embarrassment flashed across their faces. They hurriedly said "sorry" and quickly walked out of the elevator.

The elevator doors slowly closed, leaving only Lu Chenyuan and Su Wan inside once again.

The air instantly became ambiguous, with only the two people's slightly rapid breathing and the soft sound of the elevator running.

They soon arrived at the floor where Lu Chenyuan lived.

Lu Chenyuan carried Su Wan to the door, his slender fingertips resting on the cold fingerprint lock. With a gentle press, the door opened with a soft beep.

The lights inside were off, with only a sliver of light from the corridor filtering in, vaguely revealing the overall decorating style.

Like him, he was cold, hard, and icy, without any unnecessary embellishment.

The color scheme of black, white, and gray runs throughout the house, creating a minimalist aesthetic that borders on aloofness.

The sofa is made of dark genuine leather with clean lines.

The coffee table is a single piece of black stone slab, so clean that it reflects one's image.

Even the paintings hanging on the wall are abstract in cool colors, exuding a sense of coldness.

He bent down and gently placed Su Wan on the leather sofa, his fingertips inadvertently brushing against the hem of her skirt, leaving a warm touch.

As soon as Su Wan sat down, she heard him speak, his tone carrying a hint of teasing, half-smile.

"You're bolder than her, kissing in public."

"What?"

Su Wan was stunned for a moment, her eyes blank, and it took her a while to realize that he was referring to the couple in the elevator.

She was instantly furious, her cheeks flushed red, and she glared at him with shame and anger.

"Lu Chenyuan! What nonsense are you spouting! When did this happen? I don't remember!"

Looking at her flustered appearance, Lu Chenyuan's eyes flashed with a sly smile. He spoke slowly and deliberately, drawing out his words.

"I'm talking about that time I was on a mission at the bar, and you pounced on me, hugged my waist, and..."

"Stop talking!"

Before he could finish speaking, Su Wan felt her whole body burning with embarrassment.

She reached out and grabbed the only black cushion in the corner of the sofa, throwing it at him fiercely, her tone full of shame and indignation.

"Who wants to hear that from you!"

Lu Chenyuan smiled.

With quick reflexes, he reached out and caught the pillow steadily.

Her fingertips caressed the soft fabric, and the smile in her eyes deepened.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

"I'm going to take a shower first. Wait for me here for a while. I'm not used to wearing this outfit."

"If it weren't for the occasion, and accompanying you to a bar, I don't think I would ever have worn this in my life."

As he spoke, he tugged at his collar, a hint of impatience flashing across his brow.

The deliberately dressed-up clothes, along with the styling done at the hair salon downstairs, and the hair gel sticking to his hair, made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"I'll go change first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind him.

Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.

The sound of rushing water broke the silence inside the room and added a touch of ambiguity to the air.

Su Wan sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the closed bathroom door, her heart filled with surprise and helplessness.

How can he be so nonchalant?

She was so nonchalant, as if she would definitely stay here obediently, listen to him, and wait for him to come out.

It's ridiculous. When did Su Wan become so obedient?

She stood up abruptly, a resolute glint in her eyes. Taking advantage of Lu Chenyuan taking a shower and not being able to hear him, she quickly pulled out her phone, opened a ride-hailing app, and frantically swiped her fingers, wanting to quickly hail a taxi, go downstairs, and escape this place that made her feel uncomfortable and filled with his scent.

But the moment she reached the door and gently opened it, the bloody scene of the taxi rape and murder case that Lu Chenyuan had described earlier instantly and clearly appeared in her mind.

The girl's gruesome death, the blood everywhere, and the chilling despair made her freeze, her fingertips turning icy cold.

"You bastard."

Su Wan cursed viciously, her tone filled with resentment and fear. She suddenly raised her hand and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

The force was so great that the walls felt slightly numb.

She was genuinely afraid—afraid of the unknown dangers, afraid that she might actually suffer such misfortune.

No matter how stubborn or defiant she was, all her pride crumbled in the face of this deep-seated fear.

Just as the door slammed shut, she seemed to vaguely hear a faint scream from a girl, as if it came from a great distance, yet also as if it were right next to her ear.

Her body suddenly trembled, her face turned slightly pale, and she dared not take another step near the door. She scrambled back to the sofa, hugged her knees tightly, curled up into a ball, her eyes filled with panic, and even her breathing became cautious.

He cursed Lu Chenyuan thoroughly in his heart.

Damn it, I was really scared by him.
