Lei Ting placed the ring on the table, cupped An Ning's face in his hands, and An Ning didn't say anything, her head swaying slightly. Lei Ting touched her forehead; it was slightly warm.
Thunder: "Anning, are you sleepy?"
An Ning: "Yeah, a little."
Thunder: "Let's go to sleep."
Lei Ting knelt, wanting to stand up and carry An Ning to bed, but An Ning pressed him down. Lei Ting released his grip on An Ning's waist, but An Ning still wouldn't let go. Lei Ting didn't know what An Ning wanted to do. An Ning's throat was slightly dry, and she squeezed out two words from her heart.
Thunder: "An Ning, what's wrong?"
Anning: "The ring..."
When Lei Ting heard An Ning mention the ring, he was overjoyed. He was kneeling in front of An Ning, but he immediately picked up the ring, knelt on one knee, and solemnly proposed to her again.
An Ning: "No, don't say anything, don't say anything at all, I..."
Anning hurriedly covered Leiting's mouth, her eyes glazed and panicked as she looked at him. Leiting could see the anticipation, fear, excitement, apprehension, and evasiveness in Anning's eyes. Leiting said nothing, only gazing at her affectionately. Anning slowly lowered her hand from Leiting's mouth, pausing in mid-air, her ring finger gently curling upwards. Leiting didn't dare delay for a moment, afraid Anning would change her mind, and immediately returned the ring to Anning's ring finger. Anning took his ring and placed it on his ring finger. Leiting looked at the two rings returned to their rightful owners, his heart pounding like the rain outside. His breathing became rapid. Anning was somewhat frightened and immediately pulled him up.
Anning: "You...you go take a shower...I'm going to sleep...you should go to sleep early too. Goodnight."
Anning darted upstairs to her room, scattering countless flower petals in her wake. Lei Ting was overjoyed, casually tossing a handful of petals into the air. He unbuttoned his clothes and rushed to the bathroom, scrubbing his face vigorously, his lips curling into an uncontrollable smile. His manhood, too, was already curling in the same way. Lei Ting washed himself very carefully, constantly telling himself to calm down. The icy water evaporated instantly upon hitting his body. After a moment, Lei Ting calmed down, his body radiating warmth after the shower. He dried himself off without needing a towel.
After taking a shower, Lei Ting put on a black silk bathrobe with a bow tied at the waist. The smooth bathrobe, the romantic and cozy room, and the peacefulness of the sleeping person inside greatly increased Lei Ting's sense of happiness. In the living room, just as Lei Ting was about to go upstairs to sleep, Liao Qian called.
Liao Qian: "I knew you weren't asleep..."
Thunder: "What's wrong? What's going on in the middle of the night...?"
Liao Qian: "An Yang called me because he was worried and told me to keep an eye on you. You didn't go to An's house to sleep, did you?"
Thunder: "No, don't worry, I'm at your house. I'm hanging up now! I'm going to sleep..."
Liao Qian: "Okay, let's go to sleep!"
Lei Ting hung up the phone with Liao Qian. He hadn't gone to the An family's house, but An Ning was here with him! She was sleeping in her room upstairs. Lei Ting smiled, poured himself a glass of cold water, and swallowed it to cool down. The living room was filled with An Ning's body fragrance. It was wonderful; this feeling was amazing.
Leiting needed to distract himself, so he closed his eyes and thought, "I should deal with my work first!"
Lei Ting: "Guo Fan, how many files have accumulated? Send them over so I can take a look..."
Guo Fan: "President Lei, Chairman Lei is stationed at the company, and he's handled quite a few documents..."
Lei Ting: "That's good. Tell my dad not to overwork himself. I'll try to go back as soon as possible."
Guo Fan: "President Lei, wait a moment. Chairman Lei said that you called him so he can speak with you. He has something to tell you."
Thunder: "Okay. I'll call him right away."
After hanging up with Guo Fan, Lei Ting called Lei Zhenyu.
Thunder: "Dad..."
Lei Zhenyu: "Aren't you busy? What are you doing now...?"
Thunder: "It's the middle of the night abroad, I'm fine, what's wrong...?"
Lei Zhenyu: "Nothing's wrong at home or at the company. I heard from Niujin's bodyguard that Anning gave Jasmine a good beating by the Tam River, is that right?"
Lei Ting: "Yes, An Ning seems to have become a different person. She is decisive and efficient, and she can make Jasmine break down with just a few words."
Lei Zhenyu: "What are you doing by Anning's side? How could you let Jasmine get close to Anning?"
Lei Ting: "Jasmine's escape from the hospital and her encounter with us was purely accidental. Besides, Jasmine didn't gain anything from it..."
Lei Zhenyu: "Fine, as long as you don't show any mercy to women. An Ning did a very good job, she has the demeanor of a young mistress of the Lei family. Lei Ting, there are some things you should tell An Ning about family matters slowly. If you don't tell her, it would be unfair to An Ning if she remarries you."
Lei Ting: "Dad, those people should have been dealt with a long time ago. Tell Anning that I don't want her to get involved. It's such a headache! What if Anning gets hurt?"
Lei Zhenyu: "Let's not talk about dealing with them for now. Dealing with them will have to get past your grandfather first. Lei Ting, since An Ning has accepted you, you must be open and honest. Only in this way can you weather the storms together. A marriage without deception and concealment can last."
Lei Ting: "I understand. I'll consider telling An Ning about it gradually. In the meantime, I'd like to spend a few days having a proper romance with her."
Lei Zhenyu: "I agree to you dating, but you are both children that your families have placed high hopes on and have raised. I hope you can take on the responsibilities you should take on. Through this incident, I have found that you have grown up a lot. At least you have perseverance in doing things. Let Jasmine fend for herself! You are not allowed to interfere or be soft-hearted. You cannot hurt Anning again."
Thunder: "I understand. I won't let anyone hurt Anning."
