Lan Jingyan was speechless.

"Forget it, it was so late last night, and they even helped me take Xue'er home. It's okay if I didn't go, right?"

Seeing Lan Jingyan's expression turn cold, Yan Xiluo quickly tried to comfort him.

"Xie Xun, call me again if there's anything else at the company."

Lan Jingyan relented, her expression softening somewhat.

He wasn't angry that he didn't go to the company. If he hadn't gone, he should have at least told Xie Xun. Why did they have to come all the way here looking for him?

"Yes, Mr. President."

Xie Xun was prepared to be yelled at, but thankfully his wife was there to save his life.

Otherwise his heart would break.

"With such a wonderful sister-in-law, he'd be laughing in his sleep!"

Lan Jingyan was displeased; his woman was speaking up for her brother, and he was unhappy.

Jealous?

"It was really late last night, and you're only waking up now, aren't you?"

Yan Xiluo pinched his cheeks, her voice soft.

"Wow! Who made this delicious breakfast? I want to try it!"

"Any family that marries such a virtuous woman will surely be happy!"

Yan Xiluo deliberately praised herself while eating the breakfast she had made.

This made Lan Jingyan laugh.

"It must be my family's, and happiness is a must."

"Fine, fine, it's yours."

Yan Xiluo grabbed a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth. This man talks too much and is too smug.

"Hmm..."

Lan Jingyan resigned herself to her fate, shut her mouth, and happily ate her lovingly prepared breakfast.

Yan Xiluo quickly packed the medical tools she might need, then left with her first-aid kit.

Lan Jingchen Apartment

Around 5 p.m., the two people in bed started to stir, showing signs of waking up.

Ai Xue lazily rolled over, only to bump into a fleshy wall, instantly waking up.

It was actually... Lan Jingchen.

She was clearly wearing a men's shirt. What was she doing last night?

Ai Xue held her head in her hands, painfully recalling what had happened last night.

It seems she...forced herself on Lan Jingchen...

No way, that's a bit too outrageous.

She had to slip away before he woke up!

Ai Xue didn't care about anything else. She carefully tried to get out of bed, but as soon as she grabbed her phone, someone carried her back to her.

Aisha wanted to be angry, but she didn't seem to have the right, so she recorded a disclaimer video.

How foolish! How truly foolish!

"You little vixen, you think you can just run away after sleeping with me?"

Lan Jingchen half-opened his eyes and held Ai Xue in his arms.

He knew Ai Xue's strength; he couldn't match it. But that didn't matter; he would start training hard from now on.

"Everyone here is...an adult..."

"Don't take it so seriously..."

Ai Xue looked embarrassed, her face flushed.

"Scumbag woman".

Lan Jingchen uttered two words calmly.

"You're the scumbag woman! You're the scumbag man, taking advantage of someone in distress!"

Ai Xue was indignant; this man had absolutely no gentlemanly manners!

"Who's the scumbag here? I tried to dissuade you again and again, but you wouldn't listen. You insisted on forcing yourself on me. I have video evidence, do you want to see it?"

Lan Jingchen immediately picked up his phone from the bedside table, ready to unlock it.

"What do you want to do? Don't do anything reckless!"

Ai Xue was about to snatch the phone from Lan Jingchen's hand.

Lan Jingchen dodged and lay down, hiding his phone.

Aisha lost her balance and fell into his arms.

Their eyes met, and when Ai Xue touched his hot skin, she thought of their intimate moments that morning.

His face turned even redder, and Lan Jingchen's body reacted as well.

"Why didn't you say anything when you were messing around, you scumbag!"

"What do you want? Did you warn me when you forced yourself on me? You're the one who provoked me. From now on, you can only be my woman."

Lan Jingchen hugged her even tighter, his grip around her waist tightening.

"I don't know what you're talking about, let go of me!"

Aisha's eyes kept darting away, so guilty that she couldn't look him in the eye.

"Weren't you very strong when you forced me this morning? Now resist!"

"Do you remember what I said? Shout all you want, no one will come to save you!"

"She's a female hooligan! She must have done this kind of thing a lot before. She does it so easily."

Lan Jingchen spoke with a roguish air, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

He was looking forward to seeing what shocking words this woman would use to shut him up this time.

"I...so what do you want? A check?"

Ai Xue couldn't think of a better solution, so she asked, forcing herself to be brave.

"You little slut, what do you mean? You want to sleep with me? Is the check for my services?"

"Does the dignified second young master of the Lan family look like he's short of money?"

Lan Jingchen laughed in exasperation, really wanting to teach this woman another lesson so she would remember it.

"So what do you want? Don't go too far..."

Lan Jingchen was right, and she couldn't refute him.

"Be my girlfriend, or I'll have to sue you for rape. Don't forget I have evidence on my phone and in the room's security camera footage."

Lan Jingchen gave a wicked smile. If he hadn't accidentally glanced at the camera above the corner, he probably wouldn't have remembered that there was surveillance.

He installed the security camera in the room to help his friend test it, but he never expected it to come in handy.

"You, you pervert! Who installed a security camera in the bedroom?! You scoundrel!"

Ai Xue followed his gaze and saw that there really was a camera there...

She was going to die! She was frantic.

"Whether you're a pervert or a hooligan, just say it, choose one."

Lan Jingchen had no intention of letting her go; he wanted Ai Xue to take responsibility for him.

"I don't want to! We have no feelings for each other, why should we be together!"

"Besides, you're an adult, you're being too serious!"

Ai Xue tried to struggle, but her legs were weak and her body was tired.

So I had no choice but to lie there like an idiot.

"Really? You don't need to take it so seriously? Then let's do it a few more times."

Lan Jingchen was a little angry. She had forced him, and he had tried to persuade her with kind words, but now she was not taking responsibility for him!

"Until you're satisfied and agree to be my girlfriend."

He could only think of one way to deal with her despicable behavior: follow the path she took and leave her with nowhere to go!

"There's nothing I can do, I'm just that stubborn. Once I've made up my mind, I've made up my mind. Whether it's a person or a thing, I might be a little tired for a while, as long as you're satisfied."

Then Lan Jingchen turned over and put Ai Xue down.

"No, no, no, I promise you. But there are conditions..."

Ai Xue almost burst into tears. She hadn't recovered yet and didn't want to be bullied anymore.

Tell me about it.

"Are you just playing around with my girlfriend, or are you planning to marry me?"

Ai Xue asked seriously, explaining that she only dated with the intention of getting married, otherwise she wouldn't take any responsibility.

Call her a scumbag, a female hooligan, go ahead and say it!

"You think I'm joking with you? Hmm? I wasn't serious enough?"

Lan Jingchen was almost brought to tears by this woman; he was the one who was clearly at a disadvantage!

"Okay, then I have one condition. After we get married, you'll manage my family's company; I won't be involved in its operation. If you can accept that, I'll agree to be your girlfriend!"

Regardless of whether she loves him or not, this is a condition that Ai Xue must make.

She can marry someone she loves or someone she doesn't.

But managing the company is something that must be done.
