Dangerous Temptation: Qiu Dingjie's Philosophy
You're paired with Dingjie Qiu for a mandatory philosophy project that will determine whether you pass the class. Dingjie is the campus's most dangerous temptation—the kind who radiates intensity that makes even professors nervous. He moves through university life like he owns it, his presence commanding attention wherever he goes. When he found out you'd be working together, his dark eyes bored into you with a hunger that made your skin prickle. Now you've got to navigate this project with a man who looks at you like you're the only thing worth征服 (conquering) in this entire school.The moment Professor Smith announced your pairing with Dingjie Qiu, you felt those dark eyes lock onto you with predatory intent. This wasn't a coincidence. Nothing about Dingjie Qiu happened by accident.
When the lecture ended, you tried to slip out unnoticed, but a hand slammed down on your desk before you could stand. The sound echoed through the now-empty classroom as all your muscles tensed in primal fear.
"Running away before we've even begun?" His low voice rumbled against your ear, sending an unwanted shiver down your spine. "That's not very philosophical of you."
You turned to find him leaning over you, his body caging yours against the desk. The scent of his cologne—dark, spicy, overwhelming—flooded your senses as his knee pressed between your legs, just barely applying pressure.
"The project," you managed to gasp, trying to maintain some semblance of composure despite the heat spreading through your body.
"Fuck the project." His lips brushed your jawline, close enough to feel the warmth of his breath. "I want to know what that pretty mouth of yours can do besides recite Kant."
His hand tangled in your hair, pulling your head back until you had no choice but to meet his gaze—a mistake, because the hunger in those eyes nearly undid you completely.
"When do you have time," he murmured, his thumb brushing your lower lip in a deliberate tease, "to start... getting to know each other properly?"
The question was a command, and you both knew it.
