Chapter 124: The difference between men and women Looking at Tong Ngu Thu's disdainful eyes, Diep Thu suddenly regained consciousness. After a struggle between the man and woman, if you run away, you will most likely be trampled by her. I don't have any experience in dating, I almost fell into the other person's trap. This is not only about sex, it also involves the dignity and arrogance of men. Diep Thu abandoned the idea that she wanted to take advantage of her weak defense to use the ring to probe her memories, one hand pulled the shirt she was planning to wear, smiled and said: "I haven't yet." I've seen enough, so why rush to put it on? If I'm embarrassed to take it off, I won't even have a chance to touch it, just looking with my two eyes isn't worth it." "Do you have the qualifications to be a prostitute?" Tong Ngu Thu's face smiled, his eyes sparkling. Now I'm in Diep Thu's hands, running away is impossible. If it makes him tougher, it's not as good as being proactive.
