Qiu Mang closed the door, lay on the bed, and unconsciously looked at the surveillance camera on the wall again, her feelings somewhat complicated.

Tonight, it was the man on the other end of the surveillance system who saved her, even though she knew he was also a pervert, otherwise, why would he be watching her room all the time?

But regardless, for now, he may be the only person who can protect him.

Thinking about this, Qiu Mang found it somewhat amusing that she was now pinning her hopes on another voyeur. She felt she must be crazy.

After an unknown amount of time, Qiu Mang felt her eyelids getting heavy. In her drowsy state, she heard the doorknob being pressed down again.

Qiu Mang immediately woke up and saw Lu Yanting standing at the door. The man spoke in a low, husky voice, "Let's go! Come back with me!"

Suddenly, Qiu Mang felt a lump in her throat and tears streamed down her face. She immediately stood up, buried her face in the man's arms, and cried like a child, feeling wronged.

"Why did it take you so long to come? I thought I would never see you again!" Qiu Mang cried as she reached for the man's shirt.

But the next second, her hand passed through the man's body.

Qiu Mang suddenly woke up, only to find that there was no one beside her.

Was it all just a dream? Why did the scenes in the dream feel so real?

She suddenly realized another problem: why, in such a dangerous situation, was the first person she thought of Lu Yanting?

Has she really fallen in love with him?

Sitting in front of the computer, Lu Yanting looked at the tears hanging in the corners of Qiu Mang's eyes, and his heart clenched painfully.

At that moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Sister Lian strode in, her face extremely grim.

With a "slap", a hand landed on Qiu Mang's face.

"You fool! You dare to offend the very first customer? Do you have a death wish?"

Qiu Mang raised her head slightly and met Lian Jie's gaze. Lian Jie recoiled as if she had been electrocuted, trembling and screaming, "You... what's wrong with you? Didn't you have a physical examination? How come you suddenly have so many red spots on your body? Do you have some kind of recessive genetic disease?"

Qiu Mang then remembered the man's fleeing figure. She reached for the mirror next to her and looked at herself. When she saw her face covered with red spots in the mirror, Qiu Mang was stunned.

However, she quickly remembered the bowl of soup that Sun Qiang had specifically mentioned, and instantly understood.

"Someone! Someone! Quickly take her to Dr. Tao for a checkup! She might have caught some infectious disease!"

Several bodyguards rushed in from outside. They were slightly startled when they saw Qiu Mang's red face, but they quickly composed themselves.

Sun Qiang stepped forward. "Miss Mermaid, let's go! We'll take you to see a doctor!"

Qiu Mang, wrapped in a thin blanket, stood up and followed three bodyguards out of the room.

After entering the elevator, it slowly descended, and when it reached the sixth basement level, the group stepped out.

As they passed a corner, one of the bodyguards rubbed his hands together, his eyes constantly scanning Qiu Mang. Qiu Mang was covered with a thin blanket, but her two legs were exposed, shining white.

One of the men licked his lips. "Brother Qiang, this chick's got some hot looks. Her legs are so white and straight, they must feel amazing to touch. Anyway, there aren't any security cameras around here, so how about we brothers go for it..."

Sun Qiang slapped him across the head: "You're asking for it! Have you forgotten the rules for Category A girls? Dazhu, you can have your eye on other girls, but for Category A girls, absolutely not! And aren't you afraid of her illness?"

Upon hearing this, Dazhu reluctantly shut his mouth.

The group quickly arrived at the doctor's office. Before they even opened the door, Qiu Mang heard Dr. Tao's voice.

It sounds like he's on the phone with someone.

Dazhu was about to push the door open when Sun Qiang quickly raised his hand to stop him.

The group stepped back slightly, but the door wasn't closed completely, and sounds could still be heard coming from inside.

Dr. Tao looked at her loving mother on her phone and smiled gently. "Mom, don't worry, I'm doing very well abroad. Look, this is my office, isn't it big? This is an office that my boss specially reserved for me, it's full of advanced equipment."

My boss paid me the highest salary, and I'll go back home once I've earned enough money!

The middle-aged woman sighed, "Ah Hui, Mom isn't worried about you, she just misses you. When are you coming back? We haven't seen each other in so long. Ah Hui, your grandma misses you too. She sits downstairs every day, looking towards the entrance of the community, hoping for you every day..."

Dr. Tao forced back the tears that were about to fall. "Mom, don't worry! I signed a five-year contract with the company. After five years, once I've earned enough money and terminated the contract, I'll come back to see you!"

An elderly voice came through the phone, "Okay, we'll wait for you! I'll cook your favorite dishes for you then!"

"Okay, Mom, I have something to do, I'll leave now!" Dr. Tao quickly hung up the phone, and the next second, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Beside her, a tall man stared at her expressionlessly.

After a long pause, Dr. Tao looked up, grabbed the man's arm, and said in a reproachful tone, "Zhao Lei, I can't go home. Are you satisfied now?"

The man took the phone from Dr. Tao's hand, giving her a dismissive glance. "Am I not good to you? Staying here with me, what's wrong with that?"

Dr. Tao wiped away her tears and said sternly, "Zhao Lei, we've broken up! I want to go home! I just want to go home! Let me go right now!"

The man reached out his rough hand and gently stroked the woman's smooth face. The woman's crystal-clear tears fell right onto the scar on his hand.

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Xiao Hui, be with me, and we'll never have to live those hard days again. We'll have endless riches and glory! Be good, wait until I finish what I'm doing, and then we'll get married! Just wait a bit..."

After Zhao Lei finished speaking, he slowly stood up and walked towards the door.

Outside the door, Qiu Mang's pupils contracted as she saw Zhao Lei walk out; she immediately noticed the scar on the man's tiger's mouth.

Sun Qiang greeted him respectfully, "President Zhao!"

Zhao Lei glanced at the group, his gaze lingering briefly on Qiu Mang's face before quickly moving on.

"Looking for Dr. Tao?" Zhao Lei asked, frowning as he looked at Sun Qiang.

"Yes, Miss Mermaid isn't feeling well. Sister Lian instructed us to bring her over to see Dr. Tao," Sun Qiang replied.

Zhao Lei nodded. "Go ahead! Go back early after the examination; Dr. Tao must be tired today."

After Zhao Lei left, Sun Qiang led Qiu Mang into Dr. Tao's office. As soon as the door opened, they saw Dr. Tao sitting in front of the computer, lost in thought.

"Dr. Tao, Miss Mermaid was fine this afternoon, but now she suddenly has a lot of red spots on her face. Sister Lian asked us to bring her over for a check-up."
