Chapter 132: Heartbroken
Just as he took a step forward, his wrist was grabbed.
Yun Ran was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned his head: "You..."
"Stay with me tonight." Li Ting held her hand and made an irresistible request, but he didn't dare to look Yun Ran in the eye at all.
This is a rare case of him taking advantage of his identity as a "partner".
Similar requests had been made only a few times before, and almost every time it was due to Gu He's provocation.
But it was not until this moment that Yun Ran seemed to see clearly the helplessness that Li Ting had caused by his previous actions.
Perhaps because she paused for too long, Li Ting seemed afraid that she would refuse, so he pulled her into his arms without any resistance.
Yun Ran was caught off guard and fell on Li Ting's legs. She was startled and worried that his legs were injured, so she turned her head to check.
But before she could move, Li Ting grabbed her chin and then covered her with his whole body.
The expected kiss did not come.
Yun Ran looked up in surprise, and saw Li Ting restrainedly turning his head away, and finally chose to rub her cheek lightly.
The smell of smoke was unpleasant, and he didn't want to make Yun Ran uncomfortable.
Jingjing held her for a while, then Li Ting carried her to the elevator, and then took her back to his room as if he was familiar with the place.
Ever since Yun Ran stayed overnight here, there was a small water dispenser in Li Ting's room.
There were cups ready, so after he settled Yun Ran down, he turned around and poured her a glass of water.
Yun Ran rarely left her room at night. He still remembered that the last time she went downstairs in the middle of the night was to get some water in the kitchen.
"Go to sleep after you finish drinking. I'm going to take a shower. Don't wait for me." Li Ting touched her face, his voice gentle, no longer showing any of the decadence he had just shown.
Yun Ran held the warm cup of water, and soon, the sound of water in the bathroom could be heard faintly.
She stared at the water cup for a long time, her thoughts in a mess, and she couldn't even explain what she was feeling at the moment.
It wasn't until the sound of water stopped that she came back to her senses. She drank the water in one gulp, put the cup back, and hurriedly lifted the quilt and got into bed.
Turn over and lie on your inside with your back facing outside.
Not long after, the bathroom door opened, Li Ting approached, and the seat next to it collapsed slightly.
Yun Ran was embraced in an embrace with a little moisture. Li Ting had blown her hair dry, and now she was nestled in his arms, without feeling a trace of moisture.
Gentle kisses fell on her cheeks and lips one by one. Li Ting held her tightly in his arms. After a long time, he gently touched her ear and said, "Go to sleep. Good night."
The lights were turned off, and the room was pitch black, with only the sound of the suddenly accelerated heartbeat, which gradually exceeded a certain safety limit.
Yun Ran moved his fingertips, and his heart felt even more confused.
She didn't have insomnia originally, but at this moment she was completely sleepless. She was held in Li Ting's arms like this, and she couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
The person behind him showed no signs of falling asleep, so the two of them just snuggled up to each other, both awake and silent, until light appeared in the sky.

Yun Ran finally went back to work.
She couldn't stay in Yujingyuan forever and ignore what was happening in the outside world, and Qin Ruo also had to provide her with sufficient and lasting stimulation.
Therefore, after Gu He came to "disturb" him again and again, Yun Ran felt that the time was right, so he went with the flow and returned to the project team of Gu Group.
Her return did not cause much discussion at first.
After all, it is such a large project, with many companies involved, and personnel changes are normal.
