Murong Qian lowered her gaze, diffusing the strange glint in her eyes, and quickly changed the subject, “I’m leaving tomorrow, as a thanks for lending me your house this past while, I’ll treat you to dinner. How about it?”
“Okay.”
Lu Cong did not refuse.
Murong Qian cheerfully said, “You can order anything you want. If you want to drink, I can accompany you, too.”
She must find an opportunity to get him drunk tonight, and thoroughly search his bedroom.
She had no idea when she would next come here, every day she couldn’t find the family heirloom would be a day without peace.
Lost in her thoughts, she heard his teasing voice, “Anything I want to eat?”
“Yeah. I’m not stingy.”
Murong Qian answered without hesitation.
“Oh.”
Lu Cong nodded lightly, a clever twinkle flashed in his deep eyes.
As Murong Qian was considering how to carry out her grand plan, a tall shadow suddenly overwhelmed her.
Without anticipating it, he suddenly pinned her against the wall. Their bodies close, his distinctive scent enveloped her instantly, causing her heartbeat to skip.
Murong Qian swallowed nervously, her pretty face turning faintly red, perhaps out of shyness.
She tried to push him away, but he held her tight, unmoving.
“Hey, what are you trying to do?”
Angry, Murong Qian’s voice trembled.
Lu Cong squinted his charming phoenix eyes, “You said I could eat anything, right? What I want to eat now… is you.”
What?
Has he gone crazy?
She widened her eyes, instinctively trying to break free, but he was quicker. He leaned down and captured her lips…
Fragrant, soft, sweet…
A wonderful feeling that was absolutely unforgettable for him.
During this time, although the two lived under the same roof, they had never had any intimate contact. Today, he finally got his chance.
He had just wanted to kiss her, but in the end, he didn’t know who took the initiative first, and they gradually lost control…
Compared to the fiery night between Murong Qian and Lu Cong, Gu Li’s night was much simpler.
She ordered takeout in the hotel. After dinner, she continued studying for her exam the next day.
Since childhood, people praised her for being smart and talented. But only she knew that no one can succeed easily in this world, and she was no exception.
“Knock knock knock —”
While she was half done with her exercises, Yi Bing knocked on the door and came in, “Young Madam, how about a glass of milk?”
She subtly waved the glass of milk, “Drinking it can help you sleep better.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Gu Li looked up and smiled at her, “You can put it aside for now.”
“Remember to drink it.”
Yi Bing put the glass on the desk as a reminder.
Gu Li nodded, “I will, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
After saying that, Yi Bing stood by her side, curiously watching her solve problems and check the answers.
Seeing that the answers on a full page of test questions were almost all correct, she was secretly taken aback.
Is she really that talented?
Did she cheat?
She refused to accept that Gu Li was talented, after all, Gu Li was too beautiful.
Gu Li was engrossed in studying and didn’t notice whether Yi Bing had left or not. It wasn’t until past midnight, when she started to feel drowsy, that she noticed someone was still standing next to her.
“Huh? You’ve been here all this time? Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Yi Bing said, “I can sleep once the Young Madam sleeps.”
“Oh. I’m sorry, I lost track of time when I got busy.”
While speaking, Gu Li stretched lazily, standing up.
Just as she was about to go freshen up, she heard Yi Bing reminding her, “Young Madam, remember to drink your milk..”
