A faint, wicked smile slowly curved the man's lips, his voice low and seductive: "Alright, since you've taken the initiative to invite me, I'll naturally oblige!"
After saying that, he picked Qiu Mang up in his arms and carried her towards the bathroom amidst her gasps of surprise. The air seemed to be filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Two hours later, the room was quiet, with only the sound of their slightly rapid breathing echoing between them.
They lay languidly on the enormous bed. Lu Yanting's long, slender fingers gently twirled Qiu Mang's soft hair, his eyes gleaming with interest as he stared intently at the panting woman beside him.
"Your stamina seems a bit lacking..." Lu Yanting said softly with a slight upturn of his lips, a hint of teasing in his voice.
Qiu Mang frowned, her cheeks still flushed, "You..."
Before the girl could finish speaking, Lu Yanting flipped her over and pinned her down again. His eyes burned with a fierce fire, and he said in a low, husky voice, "One more time!"
"I'm tired..." Qiu Mang was truly exhausted at this moment, her voice carrying a hint of pleading.
"Sweetie, just this once. The little girl is being discharged tomorrow, so let's hurry!" Lu Yanting didn't give her a chance to refuse and kissed Qiu Mang's soft lips without saying a word.
Another hour passed, and Qiu Mang was so exhausted that she collapsed on the bed, feeling as if all her strength had been drained.
Strangely, she wasn't sleepy at all. Bored, she reached for her phone and started scrolling through videos.
Suddenly, a video of chaos at the hospital entrance one afternoon caught my eye.
In the video, a large crowd is seen shouting and yelling excitedly at the hospital entrance. The security guards at the entrance are trying their best to stop them, but they are unable to stop the crowd's advance. It looks like the crowd is about to break through the defenses and rush into the hospital lobby.
At this critical moment, a large, well-defined hand suddenly appeared in front of the camera. The next second, the phone screen went black, and the phone was taken away.
"Hey, Lu Yanting, what are you doing?" Qiu Mang shouted in surprise and anxiety.
"Still have the energy to watch videos? Looks like you're not tired?" Lu Yanting narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at her with a dangerous yet somewhat ambiguous gaze.
Qiu Mang quickly shrank under the covers like a frightened rabbit, looking at him warily, "Lu Yanting, can't you think of anything else besides these things?"
Lu Yanting's sharply defined face suddenly loomed closer, and then he placed a feather-light kiss on her lips again, his voice slightly hoarse, "No!"
Qiu Mang gently pushed him away helplessly, her tone unusually serious, "Lu Yanting, stop messing around. I've always been curious about your relationship with Dean Fang. You two are so close, what exactly is your relationship?"
Lu Yanting slowly lay down on his side, casually draped his arm behind his head, and said unhurriedly, "The Sixth Hospital is actually a private hospital, founded by several doctors with superb medical skills. Although Dean Fang's medical skills are average, his management ability is quite good, so he was elected as the dean."
Qiu Mang turned her head, staring intently at him, and pressed for an answer: "So what role did you play in all of this?"
Lu Yanting took a deep breath, as if lost in memories, "Initially, they only had a lot of skills, and even if the doctors sold everything they owned, they couldn't raise much money. So they came to me, and I saw that our Lu family was lacking in this kind of project, so I invested in them."
Qiu Mang's eyes widened in surprise as she asked, "So, you have a lot of influence in the hospital?"
Lu Yanting turned to look at her and nodded. "Yes, you could say that, but I don't really get involved. I leave the technical aspects to them. I only show up when I need money, so the outside world is basically unaware of my relationship with the hospital."
Qiu Mang thought for a moment and asked the question that had been bothering her, "So, was it also you who secretly arranged for Director Guan to have surgery on Ali?"
Lu Yanting glanced at her, then reached out and gently rubbed her head. "You think I'm a living saint just because I saved that one-year-old boy?"
Qiu Mang lowered her head. "It seems I was overthinking it."
Lu Yanting chuckled twice, then said, "Dean Fang is quite capable. His only flaw is that he has a daughter who loves to cause trouble. For the sake of the hospital's interests, I naturally can't let it go. Coincidentally, you two are involved, so I had no choice but to take care of this matter."
Qiu Mang nodded. It turned out to be just a casual thing. Sure enough, she had been overthinking it.
Lu Yanting suddenly turned to look at Qiu Mang, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
"Your thinking is a bit dangerous. Just because of this small matter, your attitude towards me has changed so drastically. If this continues, you might fall in love with me in the future, right?"
Qiu Mang subconsciously bit her lower lip and retorted, "Mr. Lu, you don't need to worry about that. We'll stick to what we agreed on before. You're after my body, and I want your money. It's just a mutually beneficial arrangement, and we won't interfere with each other. When you're ready to marry someone else and walk down the aisle, I'll naturally be sensible and disappear from your side quietly."
She paused, as if to bolster her resolve, and continued, "I'm not stupid. If I develop real feelings during this time, I'll be the one who gets hurt the most in the end. So, to avoid making myself look so pathetic, how could I possibly let myself fall in love with you?"
Lu Yanting's smile remained unchanged, but a complex emotion, barely perceptible, flashed in his eyes: "Very good, this will save a lot of unnecessary trouble. When that time comes, just name your price, and as long as I think it's reasonable, I will try my best to satisfy you. In my opinion, anything that can be settled with money is nothing."
A slightly self-deprecating smile appeared on Qiu Mang's lips as she jokingly said softly, "I didn't expect President Lu to be so generous. If I had known this would happen, I should have agreed to your proposal sooner. Maybe I would be a rich woman by now!"
Lu Yanting didn't reply, but just stared at the ceiling in silence, his eyes deep and unfathomable, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Qiu Mang seemed to have thought of something else and asked, "By the way, regarding that video from earlier, a lot of people have gone to the hospital to cause trouble. Aren't you worried that the hospital will be affected?"
Lu Yanting remained calm. "Don't worry, Dean Fang is a smart man. He'll know what to do."
