The Devil who devoured Snow White

Yong Liwei didn't waste time while he was waiting for his partner. He had a blank look on his face while he was busy reading a file on his phone. The room was quiet. No one dared to make a noise, even his assistant or the other staff in the room while Lu Mengjie was being tended in the makeup room after she changed into the dress chosen for her earlier.

It took a while but by the time Fan Derui was done, he brought her out to showcase her beauty to everyone present, but most importantly, to the man who was waiting for her.

"Mr. Yong, I'm done," he announced as he looked at the man as if he was showing off his masterpiece to him.

"How do I look?" Lu Mengjie asked with a grin. She was wearing a fairy blue off-the-shoulder evening dress with tulle cuffs. The skirt splayed out from the hips and fell to the ground like a waterfall. The neckline didn't plunge but rather showed off a tease of her beautiful cleavage. Her hair fell in soft waves around her face, curving down to her shoulders. She had a minimum, natural makeup on just to elevate her beauty further. It so happened that she was wearing the necklace her papa gave her that day. She forgot to remove it earlier but now that she was wearing a magical-looking dress, it perfectly fitted her appearance. The snowflake pendant shimmered strikingly on her bare chest.

Yong Liwei was in a daze as he stared at her ethereal loveliness in awe. She was breathtakingly gorgeous. He stood up, pocketing his phone before he approached her. He stopped with a foot away from her. He held her hand and brought it to his lips. "I should be feeling guilty for making you fall from heaven but I'm not. I don't regret praying hard for an angel like you."

Heat spread across her cheeks as she stared back into his dark midnight eyes that seemed to see through her soul. Her heart was restless. The warm sensation growing in her chest was something she was unfamiliar with but she was clear that whatever she was feeling was different than how she was with the man she loved for the past years.

"Shouldn't that make me a demoness instead since I fell from heaven?"

He blinked a few times at her remark before he chuckled in amusement and retorted, "then if you're a demon, you must be a sleep paralysis demon. I could get used to seeing you every night on my bed," he paused and leaned to whisper sexily in her ear, "preferably, naked."

In an instant, Lu Mengjie's blush deepened, in its deepest shade of red. She could feel her heart thump hard as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

They weren't the only ones in the room so when the others heard his words, their jaws dropped on the ground. Why the hell were they suddenly feeding them dog food?

Yong Liwei was satisfied upon seeing Lu Mengjie's blushing face. She was truly adorable whenever he saw the sudden shyness in her. He turned to Fan Derui and gave him a nod in acknowledgment before he returned his gaze at the woman beside him. "Shall we get going?"

…

A line of different kinds of deluxe cars was seen heading up to a certain grand mansion. Upon pulling up by the driveway, Yong Liwei went out first, then assisted his lover in exiting the car. Lights flashed repeatedly at them, coming from the cameras of the media's present. Such a stunning, surreal-looking pair was bound to attract a lot of attention. With his hand on her waist, after posing for a few poses, they walked down the noticeable red carpet that ran along towards the entrance.

As they entered, the couple was able to catch the attention of most of the guests. Men were dressed in dinner jackets with black ties, and some even wore frock coats while women wore luxurious evening gowns and precious jewels on, flaunting their beauty but with Lu Mengjie's arrival, they all paled in comparison because of her unearthly beauty. She was the fairest of them all.
