As soon as the words left his mouth, Ling Qingyue's brain went blank.
He wondered if there was something wrong with him that he had revealed even his private matters!
After a brief silence, Jiang Tian looked at him and slowly said, "It's okay, there are security cameras in my room. We can check the footage and find out."
Ling Qingyue's expression went blank.
Twenty minutes later.
Ling Qingyue and Jiang Tian arrived in the living room.
Jiang Tian's expression was somewhat subtle at this moment: "So, when you saw me sleeping on the table, you carried me to the bed, took off my socks, and then kissed me on the lips because you missed a step?"
Ling Qingyue couldn't imagine such an embarrassing thing happening, yet Jiang Tian's tone remained so calm.
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "It was because you told me not to leave that I turned around and... that's why."
"I'm sorry, I dreamt about my father," Jiang Tian said quite frankly.
Ling Qingyue's eye twitched for a moment, which meant she mistook him for her father...
Rubbing her temples, Jiang Tian looked at Ling Qingyue again: "Young Master, have you noticed that your behavior today has gone a bit too far? As far as I know, we should be colleagues."
She spoke in a very veiled way, but Ling Qingyue understood.
He was already so embarrassed that he wanted to disappear. Who would have thought that Jiang Tian would install a camera in her own room? After reviewing his behavior with her, Ling Qingyue could only conclude that his brain had been eaten by some mysterious creature at that time.
"Don't overthink it. Even if we're not that far apart in age, and even if I were desperate, I know that a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow. Today was an accident, and I only helped you out of compassion."
Ling Qingyue's expression was cold and serious.
"That's good, then I can rest assured."
Jiang Tian looked much more relaxed.
Ling Qingyue felt a pang in her heart. This person was really ridiculous. Was he really that despicable?
Luckily, he didn't like her!
"You don't need to do anything for me in the future. I actually set an alarm clock that will remind me to go to sleep at one o'clock in the morning."
Jiang Tian didn't say much, but she was implying that Ling Qingyue's efforts were in vain.
Ling Qingyue was in a bad mood.
Jiang Tian's cold and businesslike attitude completely dispelled any ambiguous feelings that had arisen from their unexpected kiss.
"Okay, don't worry, I won't do it again."
Ling Qingyue stood up first, and without turning her head, went back to her room.
After returning to his room, he leaned against the door and remained silent for a long time.
He had no experience with relationships, but reason reminded him that he was indeed paying too much attention to Jiang Tian.
He's right; at most, the two are just colleagues.
Even though they lived together, Jiang Tian never overstepped her boundaries.
It was actually his own wishful thinking.
The next day, Ling Qingyue changed her attitude.
He became much more distant from Jiang Tian, and when they ate, they each ate separately without any communication.
Back at the company, without Jiang Tian's prompting, Ling Qingyue automatically started looking at the documents.
He finished reading the documents that would normally take a week in just three days.
"Young Master, tomorrow is your birthday banquet. The chairman will definitely praise you then."
Jiang Tian was very satisfied with his performance.
Seeing her meticulous expression, Ling Qingyue slightly curled her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes.
On the day of the birthday party, the two set off together.
Ling Qingyue closed his eyes to rest after getting into the car. Jiang Tian wore a formal dress this time. As Ling Qingyue's female companion, she naturally had to pay attention to her attire.
She was wearing a black fishtail gown that revealed her beautiful shoulders and neck.
The extreme black accentuated her dazzling white.
Ling Qingyue glanced at it once and then turned her head away, but her heart was pounding.
But he had already mentally told himself that he shouldn't get too involved with Jiang Tian.
Even with this barrier in place, Ling Qingyue maintained a cold expression all the way to the banquet.
Even with a cold expression, he was still very handsome.
Everyone knows he was once the brightest star in the e-sports world. Even after retiring, his account still has millions of followers.
He led his team to international success and achieved great things. Even after retiring, his image in many people's hearts has not faded.
As soon as he entered the hall, everyone looked at him, and many young men showed excitement.
They also watch esports and are familiar with Ling Qingyue.
Ling Qingyue was wearing a black suit, and his neat hair framed his face, revealing his handsome features.
His physique is perfect, and coupled with his past fame, he exudes an indescribable aura.
Standing next to him was Jiang Tian, whose face was equally familiar.
A top-notch secretary, a capable assistant to the patriarch of the Ling family, and many people have done business with her.
When Jiang Tian and Ling Qingyue stood together, neither of them had an overwhelming presence.
Soon, under everyone's watchful eyes, they walked towards Old Master Ling, who was dressed in a Tang suit.
Ling Qingyue was born late in life, and Old Master Ling was nearly seventy years old.
But he was in high spirits, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light, and no one dared to underestimate him.
Ling Qingyue walked over and said with a stiff face, "Happy birthday."
The old man was all smiles at first, but when he saw Ling Qingyue's face, he became furious.
"It's your father's birthday today, can't you even put on a smile?!"
Ling Qingyue's lips twitched slightly, and she said again, "Happy birthday."
The old man glared at him, then turned to look at Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian smiled gently at him and handed him the gift in her hand: "Happy birthday, Chairman. This is a gift from me and the young master."
