What are you doing here?
Ling Moyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she gestured to Qin Beiming with her eyes to let go of her arm first.
Seeing her slightly flushed face, Qin Beiming suddenly frowned and asked in a deep voice:
"Drinking again?"
Ling Mo felt that his tone was like that of someone disciplining a child, so she didn't intend to pay him any attention. She pulled her arm away from his tight grip and said in a cold voice:
"Don't make a sound."
Qin Beiming seemed a little angry, his voice rising slightly at the end, "Did you ignore what Lao Shi said? He said you can't drink alcohol during this special period, or it will hurt even more next time."
"Is such a small thing worth getting so angry about?"
Seeing that Qin Beiming's tone was becoming increasingly stern, Ling Mo asked him in bewilderment.
This morning, he inexplicably lost his temper with her once.
Is he going to start giving me attitude again?
Qin Beiming realized that he had become too emotional, so he turned slightly to the side to calm down before asking:
"Did Ling Yunlong make you drink it? What exactly is he trying to do? Is he using his own daughter to secure funding?"
"Keep your voice down, or someone will hear you." Ling Mo was clearly fed up with Qin Beiming's nagging, so he made a shushing gesture, indicating that there was still someone standing outside the door.
Qin Beiming lost his patience and took a step closer, forcing her back to the sink.
Ling Mo, intimidated by his imposing aura, suddenly had the urge to storm out the door.
However, Qin Beiming did not intend to give her a chance to escape.
He leaned over the mirror in front of the sink, looking intently at Ling Mo's aloof expression. "Have you run into some trouble? Do you need my help?"
Ling Mo glanced at Qin Beiming, who was so close to him, his eyes filled with desire. He swallowed nervously, clearly unable to resist the overwhelming scent of hormones emanating from him.
She subtly shifted her gaze and replied softly, "I haven't been drinking. Besides, I can handle the person outside myself."
Seeing how certain she was, Qin Beiming knew he had been worrying unnecessarily.
However, even though she didn't need his protection, he still couldn't help but care about her.
After a pause, he asked again:
"Does your stomach still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
Ling Mo's lips twitched violently; he had never expected Qin Beiming to be so long-winded.
I asked it again and again!
How many times must he make her answer before he'll give up?
In fact, just by looking at her current appearance, Qin Beiming knew that her body was fine.
The reason I keep asking is not only because I'm worried, but also because I want her to know that she's not fighting alone.
It doesn't matter that her family has never cared about her; he will make up for it little by little with all the care and warmth.
Meanwhile, Mr. Li, who was waiting outside the door, grew impatient and knocked louder and louder. "Miss Ling, why haven't you come out yet?"
"Soon."
Ling Mo estimated the time it would take for Su Yu to arrive. Seeing that the time was ripe, he began to clench his fists, ready to knock out the lecherous CEO Li with a single punch.
However, before her hand could touch the doorknob, Qin Beiming called out to her again:
"Wait, here, take this."
As he spoke, he pulled out an exquisite diamond-encrusted headband from his pocket.
Ling Mo glanced suspiciously at the hairband in his palm and asked softly:
"do what?"
Qin Beiming was unwilling to tell her that he actually wanted the hair tie in her hair. He remained silent for a long time, unable to come up with a reasonable reason.
In desperation, he could only offer evasive explanations:
"The hair tie in your hair is pilling, I don't like it."
"What's the big deal? As long as it can be tied up."
Ling Mo had never noticed such details before.
For someone like her who rarely takes photos or looks in the mirror, it's already an incredible feat to put effort into tying her hair in a ponytail.
Furthermore, the hairband in Qin Beiming's hand appears to be very expensive.
The rhinestones on the headband don't look fake; they actually look more real than real ones.
As the saying goes, one should not accept rewards without merit.
She had no intention of accepting something so valuable.
Qin Beiming seemed to have guessed Ling Mo's thoughts, and added a special note:
"The rhinestones on the headband are all water-based rhinestones, they're worthless."
"Why do you Qin family members like giving gifts so much?"
Ling Mo looked at Qin Beiming with some trouble, but seeing his insistence, she finally took the hair ribbon from his hand.
Just as she was about to stuff the hairband into her pocket, Qin Beiming grabbed her arm at the opportune moment and said in a serious tone:
"An exchange of one thing for another. Is it fair to trade a hairband for a hair tie in your hair?"
"This is pure coercion..."
Ling Mo was utterly speechless at his bizarre actions.
If it weren't for the fact that it was in the bathroom and she couldn't really fight back, she would have loved to give him a good beating.
Does being sick give you the right to act like a cheater?
"The first gift my grandfather gave to my grandmother was a hair tie. Unfortunately, that hair tie has been lost for many years. I noticed that the lost hair tie looks a bit like the one on your head, so I took the liberty of asking. If you feel it's inappropriate, you are free to refuse."
Qin Beiming went to great lengths to get the hair tie from Ling Mo's head, even bringing up his deceased grandfather, who had been gone for many years.
"You're not lying to me?"
Ling Mo remained skeptical about this.
"How could I possibly lie to you?" Qin Beiming didn't look at her directly, because this girl's eyes were extremely sharp, and if he was even slightly uneasy, she might see through his disguise.
"I just can't do anything with you."
Ling Mo shook his head helplessly. Seeing that Su Yu was about to arrive, and not wanting to cause any further trouble, he had no choice but to take off the hair tie from his head and hand it to him.
