Ji Qingying stretched her hands to hook herself on his neck, “I know.”

Fu Yanzhi then patted her head, “If there’s any more incidents like this in the future, tell me right away.”

“Okay.”

“Do you need my help?”

Ji Qingying got surprised as she knew what he was offering. She shook her head and gently replied, “There’s no need for now.”

Fu Yanzhi nodded, “Then if you ever need my help, just call me any time.”

“Okay.”

Ji Qingying hugged him tightly before whispering in his ear, “Dr Fu, how are you so good?”

Fu Yanzhi didn’t reply, only continuing to stroke her back to comfort her.

The room was quiet for a while, and after a long time, Ji Qingying still didn't feel sleepy.

The room was quiet for a long while, but Ji Qingying found herself not feeling sleepy at all.

She kept on thinking about that incident in the past.

Fu Yanzhi had failed to coax her to sleep, which was his original intent in the first place.

He lowered his head to look at the squirming person in his arms and slightly tightened his grip, “Still not sleepy?”

“Yeah.”

Ji Qingying opened her eyes to look at him, “I’m wide awake.”

Fu Yanzhi: “…”

He smiled lightly before looking at her lips and kissing them, saying in a husky voice, “Then let’s do something that will make you tired.”

Before Ji Qingying could even respond, he had already leaned over and pressed her down, blocking her lips from saying anything further.

Fu Yanzhi looked a little impatient.

Ji Qingying could only whimper, while being assaulted by his kisses.

He overwhelmed her with a barrage of kisses, his warm breath wrapping around her, making her feel safe.

Ji Qingying drew in the warmth she needed from him.

Their positions reversed at some point.

They were oblivious to how much time had passed as the sweat on their bodies had already mixed, and so did their grunts and moans reverberated gently across the room.

The crescent moon shyly hid itself in the clouds and didn’t appear again that night.

……

Ji Qingying went into the bathroom again.

When she came out, she could hardly keep her eyes open anymore. She had given Fu Yanzhi full control of her body, which resulted in her falling deep asleep as soon as she got on the bed again.

Fu Yanzhi looked at the person in his arms and sighed.

He kissed her cheek and continued to comfort her softly, “Just sleep. I’m right here.”

Ji Qingying heard it, and cuddled into his chest some more in response.

The next day.

When Ji Qingying finally opened her eyes, the sun was shining brightly outside, able to pass through their curtains.

The space beside her was already cold and empty. She stretched out her hand to touch it, trying to estimate how long it's been since Fu Yanzhi had left.

Ji Qingying felt her body was sore. She had to rub her eyes before checking her phone by the bedside.

There was a message from Fu Yanzhi.

He asked her to remember to eat breakfast after she wakes up, and that he left it warm in the kitchen.

Ji Qingying suddenly burst into laughter as she lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

It was already 10 o’clock in the morning.

After eating her breakfast, Ji Qingying went to her studio because she had asked Rongxue to help her do some cutting.

“Morning, Sis Qingying.”

Ji Qingying touched the tip of her nose in embarrassment as she looked at her, “It’s not morning anymore.”

Rongxue giggled, “I don’t care. No matter what time the boss comes in for work, it’s always early.”

Ji Qingying was amused by her antics.

She smiled, feeling a lot better. “How much have you done?”

Rongxue pointed, “Those are yours.”

“Okay.”

Ji Qingying took it with a smile, “You can just finish your stuff and leave the rest to me.”

“Okay.”

Ji Qingying threw herself into work, no longer distracted into thinking of those messy things anymore.

At 11:30, she received a call from Fu Yanzhi’s mother.

After hearing her voice, Ji Qingying was surprised, “Auntie?!”

“It’s me.” Ye Qing laughed. “Do you have time this afternoon? I’m currently not far from where you live, so won’t you have lunch with me?”

Ji Qingying glanced at the time and immediately answered, “Okay.”

She paused for a bit before asking, “So what would you like to eat, Auntie?”

Ye Qing smiled, “There’s no need to be so nervous. I’m the one asking you out for lunch, so you don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll pick you up at the gate of residence.”

Ji Qingying subconsciously wanted to refuse her, “I can go to where you are.”

Ye Qing laughed, “It’s okay, I have my driver with me.”

Ji Qingying paused a bit, but didn’t refuse her anymore, “Okay then.”

After hanging up, she said a few words to Rongxue and changed into a new set of clothing before going out.

Afraid of making Ye Qing wait too long, Ji Qingying deliberately didn’t dress up lavishly, but simply opted for a simple dress.

As soon as she got out, Ji Qingying saw Ye Qing was waiting for her not too far away.

She scampered over, still looking a bit nervous.

Hearing her footsteps, Ye Qing turned towards her. She inspected her from top to bottom before asking something with a smile, “Why didn’t you dress up?”

“Huh?”

Ye Qing laughed, “But since you look so beautiful anyways, dressing like this is fine too.”

She pointed, “Get in.”

“Yes, thank you, Auntie.”

Ye Qing took her to a private restaurant located in a garden that looked positively ancient.

However, the surroundings were exquisite, with flowers in full bloom in the garden, and the walls were filled with vines. Fresh flowers were used to welcome customers.

The more Ji Qingying looked around, the more she felt she liked this kind of place.

Ye Qing sneaked a peek at her before whispering, “Fu Yanzhi said that you like to eat spareribs. This restaurant’s spareribs are particularly delicious.”

Ji Qingying was taken aback.

Ye Qing snickered, “Are you surprised that Fu Yanzhi would tell me something like this?”

“Yes.”

Ye Qing smiled, “Well, he becomes talkative when it comes to you.”

Ye Qing didn’t know what to say.

Just by the look of it, Ye Qing was definitely a regular in this restaurant, because as soon as they sat down, the owner came over.

After placing their orders, Ye Qing looked at the nervous wreck in front of her and couldn’t help but laugh, “Guessing why I asked you to lunch?”

Ji Qingying nodded honestly, “Yes.”

She was a little nervous.

Ye Qing looked at her, “First of all, I have to apologize to you.”

Ji Qingying looked at her in surprise.

Ye Qing explained, “When I first heard about you from Zhenzhen, I asked to see your information sheet.”

Ji Qingying's eyelashes trembled, “It's okay.”

She added, “It’s a normal thing to do.”

Ye Qing shook her head, “That was because you had participated in a Sanqing competition, and I have all the contestants’ data.”#pleasereadthischapteratfoxaholic.com

She didn’t purposefully do it.

Although Ye Qing was curious about the person Fu Yanzhi liked, she didn’t want to have the person’s private life investigated. As for Ji Qingying’s case, her information was placed on her table together with the other contestants even before the competition.

Because during the preliminary selection, they needed to screen the would-be participants.

Ji Qingying’s university wasn’t particularly famous, but as a titan in the industry, as well as a company owner, it’s easy to get insider information.

Ji Qingying simply nodded, “Well, even if Auntie had me investigated, I wouldn’t have minded.”

She understood a mother’s concerns.

Ye Qing smiled while shaking her head. She looked at her and said, “Really? You really don’t mind me doing so?”

Ji Qingying answered honestly, “Really.”

She then looked at Ye Qing directly, “I understand Auntie’s concerns.”

Ye Qing smiled, “You might understand it, but a particular brat didn’t.”

She took a deep breath and continued, “He called me early this morning and asked me to apologize to you.”

“What?” Ji Qingying was stunned.

Ye Qing smiled helplessly, “Fu Yanzhi called me this morning.”

She paused before continuing, “And he briefly told me about your college days.”

She carefully observed Ji Qingying’s expression and reassured her, “Not a lot of people know about that incident.” She took out a file from her bag and handed it to Ji Qingying, “I also wasn’t aware of what exactly happened back then, and if you youngsters didn’t bring it up, I wouldn’t have asked further.”

With a smile, she tapped the file, “Consider this my introductory gift to you.”

Ye Qing’s smile grew gentler, “I hope this helps you out.”

Ji Qingying was surprised.

She simply stared at Ye Qing for a long time. Prompted by her encouraging eyes, she opened the file.

And as soon as she opened it, Lin Xiaoshuang’s personal information was before her.

Not only did it include the period of when she studied abroad, it also had a list of her released works and information about her chaotic private life.

Every page of this file could destroy Lin Xiaoshuang’s career as a designer, as long as she exposed it.

It would be complete destruction, with no possibility of recovery.

There was even a section about He Yuan and his personal information at the back.

Compared to Lin Xiaoshuang, He Yuan wasn’t so bad. But it was still enough to make him fall hard.

Ji Qingying's hands trembled as she looked at Ye Qing in disbelief.

Ye Qing continued to smile as she looked at her and gently asked, “Do you like my gift?

”

Ji Qingying didn’t say a word, only her eyes gradually turning red.

Seeing her like this, Ye Qing hurriedly said, “Please don’t cry. If Fu Yanzhi hears that I made you cry, he’d cut off our mother-son relationship.

“……”
