Before Zhou Yancheng fell from grace, he was the object of everyone's admiration.

With a family background like the Zhou family, even a small amount of money from Zhou Yancheng would be enough for them to live on for years or even decades.

To others, he was a man of many friends, and wherever he went, people would vie to fawn over him.

Only he himself knows how much he needs to master and how much deceit and treachery he needs to face as an heir.

Staying up all night is commonplace, and being alone at home is even more so.

When loneliness becomes a habit, when vigilance becomes an instinct.

Jiang Tian's sudden intrusion brought a different kind of brightness to his life.

If it weren't for her stubborn desire to take care of him and gradually intrude into his life, Zhou Yancheng might never have taken a single step out of his life.

He erected a high wall around himself.

Now, holding his phone, he rushed out of the elevator as fast as he could and ran to Jiang Tian.

She smiled at him, her eyes crinkling into crescents.

Zhou Yancheng strode forward and embraced her, his eyes precisely capturing her delicate lips.

Go deeper, and deeper still.

Only when Jiang Tian could barely stand, her lips flushed red, did he put his arm around her waist and ask in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Tian was still panting, but she didn't struggle as he held her: "Didn't we already say that we're in the honeymoon phase? I don't want to be alone in an empty room."

Zhou Yancheng smiled, a slight curl at the corner of his lips.

"Young Master, you should let go of me, because I brought you food. Could you please carry the thermos for me?"

Zhou Yancheng was only thinking about kissing her hard when he realized that she was carrying a lunchbox.

He quickly helped bring it over, saying, "Isn't this the kind of food you eat at home? I'll cook it."

"In special circumstances, I'm needed."

A warm feeling welled up in his heart, and Zhou Yancheng couldn't help but kiss her again, then took her hand and went upstairs.

"This is your company, is it alright for me to go in?"

Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Yancheng explained to her, "It's okay. This company is just an empty shell. There's not much of importance in it. No one will care if you come in. The surveillance cameras have been broken for a long time."

"That's good."

Jiang Tian was comfortably led to her workstation by Zhou Yancheng.

"Let's eat, I'll watch you eat."

Jiang Tian propped her head up with her hand and looked at him with a smile.

Zhou Yancheng asked her, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Of course I've eaten. I take good care of my health, unlike you, a workaholic. I could tell you wouldn't eat properly, just like you don't eat breakfast."

Zhou Yancheng smiled and did not deny it. Sometimes when he was busy with work, he even forgot that he was a person who needed to eat.

Zhou Yancheng ate every last bite of the meal Jiang Tian brought him; he would never forget it.

He went to the restroom to wash up a bit and cleaned the thermos. Jiang Tian was waiting for him outside.

The two walked back hand in hand, with Jiang Tian sitting on his lap while Zhou Yancheng played with her hand.

"How much longer do we need to work overtime?" Jiang Tian asked him.

"It should take several more hours."

Jiang Tian's eyes widened: "Does your boss treat you like a donkey? It'll take several more hours, so are you not going to get any sleep?"

Zhou Yancheng patted her head: "Get ready, I'll take you home first, then I'll come back to work overtime."

It was so late, and he was worried about her walking alone.

Jiang Tian shook her head and put her hand on his neck: "Then I'll stay here with you. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I go back."

Zhou Yancheng's eyes showed rejection: "I can't even sleep well here, let's go back quickly."

Jiang Tian leaned in and kissed his eyes: "How could you not sleep well? It's just the two of us here, a man and a woman alone, it's easy for something to happen..."

Zhou Yancheng's breathing became erratic.

Jiang Tian leaned against him, a triumphant smile in her eyes: "See? You just don't want me to leave."

Seeing that she really didn't want to leave, Zhou Yancheng took a deep breath and made Jiang Tian face him.

Then……

His head was lowered...

Jiang Tian wore a very figure-hugging shirt, and Zhou Yancheng managed to restrain himself from looking at her inappropriately.

He knew her figure very well; wearing more colorful clothes would accentuate it even more…

It was her fault...

Several buttons were undone.

Just a few seconds.

Jiang Tian forgot to breathe for a moment!

She jumped down in a hurry.

"You...you..."

Her hair was a little messy, and her collar was disheveled.

Zhou Yancheng looked up and wiped his mouth: "I just wanted to do this because you're here."

Jiang Tian was momentarily speechless. Her eyes were watery, her face flushed, and Zhou Yancheng's breath hitched again.

Seeing his gaze, Jiang Tian quickly turned around: "I don't care, I'm not leaving. What kind of couple's boyfriend disappears the next day? You go to work, I'll stay here with you. And... there's nothing you can't do!"

Zhou Yancheng had long seen through Jiang Tian's faction; she seemed to know everything on the surface, but was actually clueless about everything.

He didn't intend to do anything in this situation...

Since she was determined not to leave, Zhou Yancheng could only find her a small bed, clean it up himself, and let her sleep there for a while.

"I work right over there, you can see me at a glance. Now you can go to sleep, right?"

Jiang Tian was finally satisfied.

But she quickly jumped out of bed: "It's only ten o'clock, who's sleeping? I want to watch you work, so hurry up and get to work!"

Zhou Yancheng had no choice but to let her have her way.

He was very focused on his work, and Jiang Tian didn't disturb him.

He stood aside and observed him closely.

Her delicate fragrance enveloped him, and Zhou Yancheng found himself in a rare state of peace.

After he finished a phase of his work, he found that Jiang Tian had fallen asleep on the table next to him.

His coat was still covering her.

It's as if they're saying this person belongs to them.

Zhou Yancheng stared at her for several seconds, a smile in his eyes that he himself didn't even realize was there.

Then, with the slightest movement, he placed her on the small bed, covered her with his coat again, and kissed her lips.

Rather than saying that Jiang Tian's presence here would make him feel at ease, it would be more accurate to say that looking at Jiang Tian would make his heart feel less empty.

By five or six in the morning, all the work was finished.

Zhou Yancheng was thinking about what time to wake her up; he didn't want her to see his disgusting colleagues.

However, not long after, Jiang Tian's phone alarm went off, and she immediately opened her eyes.

Zhou Yancheng was sitting by her bedside; she saw him immediately.

"Why are you up so early?" Zhou Yancheng asked, somewhat puzzled.

Jiang Tian hurriedly turned to look out the window. It was summer, and the sun rose early.

"Because I wanted to watch the sunrise with you, phew... thankfully we didn't miss it."

Zhou Yancheng's heart skipped a beat.

Jiang Tian wrapped her arms around his neck, forcing him to look out the window with her.

Outside, the sun is slowly rising, bright and warm.

A new day is beginning.

Inside the office, after watching the sunrise together, Zhou Yancheng pulled Jiang Tian into his arms. The two looked at each other, and Zhou Yancheng's hot breath brushed against her face.

At that moment, he desperately wanted to kiss her.

He did just that.

The next second, a whirlwind of kisses rained down upon him.
