I wanted to see what was going on, but I couldn't open my eyes because the light from the incandescent lamp was too strong. I could only force myself to squint and look at people.

Subconsciously, Pei Zhiyu felt that the man squatting in front of the bed must be Qin Hezhou.

So she said to him without thinking: "Qin Hezhou...well, please turn off the light. I can't open my eyes."

The lazy and soft voice was like a feather gently caressing his heart, and his whole body went numb in an instant. Even Mr. Hong's talkative voice on the other end of the phone stopped.

After a while, the person on the other end hung up the phone with an awkward smile.

No one turned off the lights, and Pei Zhiyu, who was still in a half-asleep state, urged him again.

Qin Hezhou stiffened his body and went to turn off the lights. His expression could not be seen in the darkness. It was hard to tell whether he looked more helpless or excited.

The atmosphere was so quiet for a long time.

Pei Zhiyu buried his head in the quilt, probably still trying to calm down. It took a while before a sound came from inside.

"that……"

"Hmm?" He waited with bated breath.

But she asked, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"

Qin Hezhou laughed dumbly, walked to the bed in the dark and sat down. His slightly cold big hands reached into the quilt and pinched the soft flesh on her face without any deviation.

"I'm helping you negotiate a cooperation with Mr. Hong."

The quilt moved suddenly, "dong"——

"Ah, tsk!" She moved in such a hurry that she forgot she was very close to the headboard and bumped into it without noticing.

Because it was too dark, Qin Hezhou was unable to protect her in time. As soon as he raised his hand, she was hit. He looked at her through the dim light with a look of heartache and doting, and reached out to rub her forehead.

She didn't resist either, as she has basically become desensitized to this level of intimacy.

After listening to Qin Hezhou's explanation of the whole matter, Pei Zhiyu was shocked. "Did it work out? What method did you use to threaten him?!"

Unexpectedly, she would react so strongly. He was stunned and asked, "Is it unbelievable?"

"It's very difficult." As she said this, she sighed and told Qin Hezhou about the hardships she had experienced in the past few days.

She talked about how difficult Mr. Hong was to deal with, how many problems he had given her, etc., and finally she looked at him with bright eyes and was grateful to him from the bottom of her heart.

I couldn't help but speak out my heart: "You know, now in my heart you are like a god with holy light."

This sentence seemed to be slowed down and echoed repeatedly in Qin Hezhou's ears.

Every word struck his heart. He was like a farmer who had been longing for rain in a dry land for a long time. He finally waited for her rain and then watched with joy as green seedlings broke through the soil in his heart.

His ears were buzzing and he couldn't help laughing.

Pei Zhiyu was stunned by his laughter.

In the dim moonlight, she seemed to see a pair of hands coming towards her, and a slightly cool and rough touch appeared on her neck and earlobes.
