Qiu Hu looks at the man in front of her and asks, "Actually, I want to ask, are you a love-struck fool?"
"Not anymore. After all, it's my first time dating, so I didn't ha...
He lingered outside the room, looking around aimlessly. Qiu Hu finally got up, grabbed a bathrobe and pajamas for him, and stuffed them into his shirtless arms. "That's enough," he said, meaning he could leave now.
He took a couple of steps and then came back. "Oh right, I forgot, I forgot." He walked back to the bedside and said, "The pillow, I'm used to sleeping on this pillow."
After taking it, he looked up at her with a smile in his eyes, "What if you can't sleep without me beside you?"
"Why don't you sleep here tonight? I'll sleep somewhere else."
"...No need, you can sleep here, I'll go out." Ning Yizhan had no more excuses and walked out with a sigh.
Ning Yizhan went to the next guest room to take a shower. Feeling a bit irritable, he received a phone call. It was Zhou Jue's assistant; he only needed to talk to him about work.
Unfortunately, I ran into him tonight!
"What is it?" His tone was nowhere near as gentle as it had been in the master bedroom; now it was sharp and piercing. "Don't you know what time it is? You can't rest, but I can't?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ning." Zhou Jue, the worker, could tell that his boss was in a bad mood.
"What is it? Can't you just say it all at once?"
"President Ning, Chairman Ning declined a business trip, so he's asking if you could go?" Zhou Jue's tone grew weaker and weaker.
"Didn't I just get back? Push it out, and if you can't push it back, go get it yourself." He's always away on business trips, does he even want to date? How can his dad be so inconsiderate!
"Okay, Mr. Ning." Zhou Jue seriously suspected that he had disturbed his boss's good work. Why was he so angry? He couldn't help but shiver; it was a little scary.
After hanging up the phone, he was still a little irritated. He went into the bathroom, looked at himself in the mirror with a resentful expression, and wondered what Qiu Hu was doing now. Was he also getting ready to take a shower?
He was right; Qiu Hu was indeed taking a bath.
The morning sun shone on Qiu Hu, but did not wake her. She was blessed by the sun. She was indifferent but loved the sun, which always gave her a powerful and warm feeling.
Now, she finds that Ning Yizhan seems to radiate sunshine; every time she sees him, she feels no worries and he even nourishes her.
She woke up naturally, opening her sleepy eyes. Before her was a man's lean, sexy waistline and firm abs. She was momentarily dazed, then looked around. It was the same body. When she looked up, the man was looking at her with a smile in his eyes. Finally, he raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully, "Is it good-looking?"
It's not a dream!
Qiu Hu glanced down again, then began to contradict himself, saying, "It's ugly, it's hideous."
"Then why are you looking at it so many times? If you keep looking, you'll have to pay!"
Qiu Hu ignored him, got out of bed, walked past him, and tried to go into the bathroom, but as she passed by, the man pulled her into his arms and whispered sweet nothings in her ear, "Good morning, did you sleep well?"
"Of course," Qiu Hu actually went to bed very late. In the somewhat unfamiliar room, she tossed and turned for a long time before finally falling asleep, but she didn't plan to tell Ning Yizhan, otherwise he would have many excuses.
"How did you get in?" Even through her pajamas, she could feel the man's warm body, which always gave her a feeling of insecurity, even in the morning.
The shirtless man held out his clothes, saying, "I came in to change. My clothes are here."
"Then put it on," the man said, releasing her and putting on the shirt in front of her, but without buttoning it up. He pulled her into the bathroom, but she was one step ahead, closing the bathroom door and locking it from the inside. No matter what the man outside said, she wouldn't open the door.
"..." The man could only button up his shirt on his own.
Qiu Hucai came out of the bathroom and walked into the living room. Looking out the window at the towering buildings, he saw the "Qiu Family" building standing out prominently among them.
Qiu Hu was in a hurry today and didn't plan to eat before leaving, but Ning Yizhan forced some breakfast into his mouth before he went out.
Ning Yizhan drove her back to the company, saying he would pick her up after get off work, and then they went about their own business.
In the afternoon, Qiu Hu called Ning Yizhan, saying she was going to accompany Xiang Gexuan. In short, he had been thwarted again. "What's wrong with her now? I'm really not that important."
"What are you saying? She's drinking at the bar! I'll go keep her company."
"Which bar?" He knew Qiu Hu would protect him, but he was still worried.
"Dream on!"
"Okay, I'll come pick you up later."
Evening, dream.
Qiu Hu found Xiang Gexuan drinking alone, quite drunk. After looking at her for a few seconds, he recognized her. "Fox, you've finally come!"
"Why did you drink so much?" She hadn't seen Xiang Gexuan recently. Every time she tried to talk to her, she would only chat for a few minutes before disappearing. She had been planning to go see her in the next few days, but today she was the one who invited her out.
Xiang Gexuan, however, only knew how to drink. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he was on the verge of crying. After finishing a whole glass of wine, he finally said, "You can never wake up a man who is pretending to be asleep."
"Shang Ji did something wrong again? That woman is still here?" Qiu Hu seized on the key point and said it without any mercy.
"Yes, how could I have fallen for him in the first place? Why, why?" Finally, she burst into tears. "There's no way to salvage things between us, there's really no way to salvage them."
Qiu Hu didn't know how to comfort her, as she had never experienced anything like this before. All she could do was step forward and hug her, saying, "If you can't save her, then don't. We don't care."
"But I'm so sad! So sad!" Xiang Gexuan sobbed uncontrollably, hugging Qiu Hu for a long time before letting go and telling her what had happened during this time.
Qiu Hu was more angry than surprised by what had happened. She slowly began to understand Xiang Gexuan's emotional changes. If it were her, she would probably be even angrier and would do even more ruthless things.
Ning Yizhan, who had just arrived, witnessed everything that happened at the bar. He took several photos and sent them to Shang Ji, especially the ones of his woman being held for a long time. He confronted Shang Ji, demanding, "When are you going to appease your wife?"
After looking at the photo, the person on the other end replied instantly: She doesn't believe me.
...Useless! How could someone like him ever win a wife?
Ning Yizhan sat in a seat not far from them for a long time. The longer they chatted, the more irritated he became. He picked up the wine he had just ordered and took a few sips. He would occasionally pick up his phone to check it. He had texted Qiu Hu as soon as he arrived to say that he had arrived, but he hadn't received a reply for so long.
Finally, the two finished their conversation, and then he received a message that Qiu Hu was going to send Xiang Gexuan back. What should he do? Of course, he should follow!
So, in the end, Qiu Hu first sent Ge Xuan back, and then went back to Guyue Garden with Ning Yizhan.
As soon as they entered the house, Ning Yizhan tried to kiss her, but before he could get close, she covered his mouth with her hand and told him, "You've been drinking!"
