Song Yu has only four words for him: "Clothes and hats are birds and beasts."

  His legs were on top of hers, wrapping her two legs together, his arms also wrapped around her two arms, and the whole person was wrapped in his arms.

  Although he was wearing pajamas, he could still feel the scorching temperature emanating from his skin.

  Her cheeks were pressed against his smooth skin, scalding hot.

  His arm was locked by him, with nowhere to put it, and could only be stiffly placed on his own side, as if tied up by invisible strings.

  Zi Chengzhi raised an eyebrow at her, grabbed her hand and placed it on his waist, the firm and elastic muscles of his waist feeling the warmth of her palm, and he couldn't help but pull her into a tighter hug.

  ……

  ……

  Song Yu was sleeping in a daze in the early morning, feeling a hand on her body moving from her lower abdomen upwards, and her skin gradually becoming cooler.

  Her chest felt warm and slightly painful, as if someone was holding her. Her lips were blocked, and a scorching tongue slipped in, making it hard to breathe, and she couldn't sleep anymore.

  Song Yu's hand unconsciously reached out and landed on a warm, smooth chest. She suddenly opened her eyes to find Qi Chengzhi pressing his lips against hers, the scene was so familiar. But last time, her clothes were still intact, this time, her nightgown had already been lifted to her neck. Her body felt hot from his touch, and she breathed rapidly without realizing it.

  "Qí chéng zhī..." She opened her mouth, her face red with fright.

  Chi Cheng's lips slid down along her jawline, kissing her neck, and then swept across the collar of her nightgown downwards. His body also squeezed into her thighs, making her clearly feel his reaction.

  "No way, this is too fast!" Song Yu was shocked and pushed his shoulders hard with both hands. If it continued like this, she feared that she wouldn't have the strength or determination to refuse anymore.

  "I'm not ready yet, Qi Chengzhi, didn't you say you wouldn't——"

  Zi Cheng suddenly raised his head, and the fierce flames in his eyes were so intense that they scared her, scorching her eyes and skin, making her cheeks feel a little painful, causing her to tremble suddenly, not daring to look again.

  "Let me go first." Song Yu said in a low voice, pushing his shoulder, somewhat afraid.

  If he insisted on continuing, she felt that she couldn't really make up her mind to refuse either.

  At least now she has feelings too.

  She hastily dropped her nightgown and suddenly stood naked in front of him, unable to express her embarrassment, her whole body burning.

  "I've done this for you, now you have to help me." His voice was hoarse with unendurable longing.

  He slightly moved, immediately triggering a fierce gasp from Song Yu, knowing she felt it.

  Song Yu's neck shrunk, his eyes involuntarily moved down from his face, and his tent was pitched bigger than last night under the building.

  She thought last night was already an eye-opener, and she hadn't fully digested the shocking size he had revealed, but this morning her perception was refreshed once again.

  "Help me." He leaned into her ear, his thin lips brushing against her ear.

  Song Yu's face was already numb with little thinking ability left, his lips trembling, "H...how can I help?"

  Zi Chengzhi suddenly kissed her, his hand sliding down her arm to grasp hers, pulling her into his inner chamber. A trembling gasp echoed in Song Yu's ear.

  ……

  ……

  Song Yu was preparing breakfast sandwiches in the kitchen, but his right hand was shaking violently, and his palm was still scalding hot.

  Lift up the trembling hands and take a sniff, still smelling his strong male pheromone.

  Thinking of what he had just made her do, and then his satisfied and refreshed expression afterwards, Song Yu felt extremely ashamed and angry, holding the knife from the cutting board in her hand, but her angry expression looked like she was about to use the knife to kill someone.

  Finally, with a burst of anger, he chopped off the crust of the toast with a loud thud.

  As the mastermind behind the crime, Qi Chengzhi was quite calm, having changed into a new set of clothes. The suit he wore last night had been left at Song Yu's place for her to wash.

  Turning on the TV and casually switching channels, feeling as comfortable as if I were in my own home.

  Song Yu brought over the cooked coffee and sandwich, Qi Chengzhi's gaze immediately shifted from the TV to her, that blatant possessive gaze made Song Yu's hair stand on end.

  He looked great in his tailored suit, which fit him like a high-end fashion model.

  Song Yu couldn't help but admit that Qi Chengzhi was absolutely the most impressive man she had ever seen wearing a suit.

  But at this time, Song Yu had only four words for him: "Even birds and beasts wear clothes!"

  Under his gaze that showed no intention of hiding the fact that he wanted to devour her, Song Yu's hand went limp and the coffee cup in her hand almost fell.

  The next second, her hand holding the coffee was firmly grasped by Qi Chengzhi, and the coffee was steadily held in her hand without spilling a single drop.

  "What's wrong?" His low voice was tinged with a faint smile.

  Song Yu, who had been teased by him to the point of being furious and embarrassed, glared at him fiercely without saying a word.

  In the morning, Qi Chengzhi, who was half-fed, was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with her. He casually took the coffee cup from her hand and sat at the dining table, eating his sandwich in twos and threes.

  After finishing breakfast, Qi Chengzhi walked to the door, dragging his luggage, and saw that Song Yu still had a bit of a temper and hadn't followed him. He stretched out his hand towards her, "Come on, I'm going to the airport, I'll drop you off at the company first."

  Song Yu was so surprised that he forgot to be angry and asked: "Are you really going on a business trip?"

  "You think I'm cheating you?" He asked with a smile that was almost mocking, as if he had seen through her and his expression was somewhat sarcastic.

  Song Yu's face turned slightly red with embarrassment, and she lowered her head to brush back her hair behind her ear to cover up the awkwardness.

  She really thought that Qi Chengzhi had found an excuse to come over and spend the night with her.

  Song Yu quickly gathered his things and followed Qi Chengzhi out the door with his bag.

  Chang Zhi stood in front of the carriage, watching Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu walking out of the building one after another.

  He had never seen Qi Cheng's emotions so radiant and unrestrained before. That refreshing look was truly delightful.

  Take another look at Song Yu, whose face is still flushed, occasionally stealing a glance at Qi Cheng, and Chang Ye immediately understood.

  "Miss Song." He always called out respectfully.

  Song Yu Chong smiled and followed Qi Cheng Zhi into the back seat.

  This time, Qi Chengzhi didn't insist and agreed to park the car a little further away from the city.

  Song Yu didn't get off in a hurry, sitting on the seat and hesitating about something, Qi Cheng had little time left, but he didn't rush her either.

  After a while, Song Yu looked over and said softly: "That... you're on a business trip away from home, take care of your body."

  Song Yu hastily finished speaking and was about to get off the bus with a numb scalp, too embarrassed to look at Qi Cheng's smug expression.

  Just as her hand touched the door handle, she was pulled back by him, holding her hand and squeezing her against the door, kissing her fiercely.

  After releasing her, Qi Chengzhi's lips were also stained with her lip gloss, and his originally clear eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

  Song Yu's face turned red as he glanced at Chang Ye sitting in front of him, and through the rearview mirror, he found that he had already closed his eyes consciously.

  Qī Chéngzhī noticed her slight movement, smiled slightly, and sat back down, his eyes not leaving hers, his face full of the majesty of being the CEO of Qílín.

  Song Yu pouted and thought to herself, "How can this man be so good at pretending?" She got out of the car after opening the door.

  Finally daring to open his eyes, Chang Ye realized that from today on, his career would be filled with danger, because at any time, the president would give him such a test, really testing his reaction!

  Through the rearview mirror, he saw the lip print on Chi Cheng's lips and his dignified expression at this time were really mismatched.

  ……

  ……

  Because of the approaching Chinese New Year, all companies are preparing for the holiday, and some have already started their break. Construction workers have also returned home early with their wages to celebrate the new year. Therefore, the construction of the Qi Lin resort hotel will not officially begin until after the holiday.

  Due to the Spring Festival travel season, more than half of the company's employees are not locals. The company is holding a New Year's party at Shengyue tonight and tomorrow will be officially off work.

  The annual meeting of Chengshi was nothing special, after Zhao's speech, everyone ate and drank freely, followed by a lottery draw.

  Song Yu had nothing to do with the prize, and the host's lively words above were not heard by her below, who was slowly eating dessert.

  The phone on the table vibrated for a long time. Song Yu opened it and was surprised to find that it was a text message from Luo Yushu.

  "Miss Song, the client insisted on dragging our CEO to a nightclub tonight. Our CEO didn't want to go, but couldn't refuse. But don't worry, there isn't a single woman by our CEO's side right now. I've never seen a man as upright as our CEO."

  Song Yu stared at the message for a while, wondering why Luo Yushu suddenly sent her such a message.

  On the other end of the phone, Luo Yushu looked at Qi Chengzhi in confusion as he held his mobile phone and tapped on the screen with his fingers.

  Just now, Qi Chengzhi just said to him: "Give me your phone for a while."

  Then it was never returned to him again.

  Zi Chengzhi sent a message and continued writing: "Jian Yihuai is still hugging a woman in his arms!"

  After reading it twice, Qi Chengzhi felt that this was a bit too deliberate, so he deleted the sentence and didn't send it out.

  He had a cigarette in his mouth, looked around and found that the client had also called a girl for him, who was one of the most popular ones in the store, named Manfi or something, but he refused.

  Manfi originally wanted to stick with him, after all, a customer who looks so good and has a strong presence is rare. Manfi also had her eyes on the prize, knowing that even if she only slept with him once, the benefits would be substantial.

  But Qi Chengzhi's calm and stern expression was really intimidating, Manfi hadn't even touched him yet, but she had already been scared away.

  "That person over there is our company's engineering department manager, very promising."

  Then Manfei sat down beside Jianyi.

  Zi Chengzhi didn't know what Jian Yip was like normally, but since there was the relationship with Zi Chengyue, Jian Yip definitely wouldn't dare to act rashly in front of him.

  Qī Chéngzhī narrowed his eyes and kept observing, while Luó Yùshù trembled inexplicably, thinking that the president's expression was terrifying.

  Just as he was thinking this way, Qi Chengzhi suddenly looked over and scared Luo Yushu, who almost jumped up from the sofa.

  Is he caught peeking again?

  Qī Chéngzhī puffed on his cigarette and beckoned him over with a wave of his hand.

  Luoyushu's whole body trembled with fear as he cautiously approached and asked: "Chairman?"

  Zi Chengzhi returned the phone to him and said: "Later when you hear me say sorry, take a photo of this side for me."

  Zi Cheng nodded slightly and narrowed his eyes, "Take a wider shot."

  A larger scope? How large a scope?

  Luoyushu lowered his head to glance at the phone that had been stuffed back into his hand, then raised it again. He saw Qizheng get up and walk over to Jianyi's side with an air of righteousness, sitting down without feeling any awkwardness about his actions.

  Even if Jian Yi looked at him with a hint of surprise, he pretended not to see it, maintaining his usual demeanor without making anyone feel strange, which was probably the style of Cheng Shao.

  Qī Chéng's right hand lifted up to take the cigarette that was pinched between his lips, but halfway through, he suddenly gave Jiǎn Yì a shove, directly knocking him into Màn Fēi and pressing her onto the sofa.

  Zi Chengzhi took the cigarette out of his mouth and said lightly: "Sorry."

  Luoyushu suddenly had an epiphany and immediately took a photo of Qi Chengzhi, naturally including Jianyi in the frame.

  Then, Qi Chengzhi got up with a cigarette in his mouth and walked over to sit down beside Luo Yushu.

  Luo Yushu looked at Jian Yi with sympathy, how did this young man offend the president? Was it because his relationship with Miss Qi didn't get the president's approval?

  Jian Yi quickly got up from Man Feng's body and looked at Qi Cheng Zhi with a tight face and narrowed eyes.

  Ke Qi took over Luo Yushu's mobile phone and didn't even glance at Jian Yi.

  "Haha, looks quite elegant, but turns out to be so domineering." Manfi giggled and leaned into Jianyi's arms.

  Jian Yi furrowed his brow, roughly pushing Man Fei away, and changed to a separate seat far from everyone else, with a gloomy expression staring at Qi Chengzhi in front of him.

  Manfi was pushed away and fell backwards onto the sofa, her expression awkward and displeased as she sat up. First, she was rejected by Qi Chengzhi, then she was rejected by Jian Yi in such an unfeeling manner. Manfi's face turned pale and ugly, but she didn't go find Jian Yi again, instead she just sat there, ignoring everyone.

  As for other girls, seeing Manfei being dumped made them all quite happy, but no one dared to go find Qi Chengzhi and Jian Yi again, afraid of following in Manfei's footsteps.

  ……

  ……

  Song Yu had just put down his phone when he received another message from Luo Yushu, which was a photo.

  In the photo, Qi Chengzhi is sitting alone there smoking, with an impatient expression, looking really uncomfortable in this setting. Next to him, however, someone else is pinning a woman down on the sofa.

  Song Yu took a closer look and found that the man who was pressing down on the woman was actually Jian Yi!

  Song Yu shook her head and smiled wryly, why didn't she feel surprised at all?

  Jian Yi Neng used women for his own benefit and future, so in this kind of night club, flirting with a hostess was nothing.

  Her gaze returned to Qi Chengzhi's body, that man with a clear and cold expression, in this dirty environment, suddenly looked particularly clean, his long fingers holding a cigarette, as if isolating himself in another world, completely out of place with the messy room.

  She suddenly wanted him to come back quickly and stop being touched by those women over there, a single touch would sully his body.

  Song Yu couldn't suppress the longing in her heart, dialed out Qi Chengzhi's number and opened a message.

  Although it has always been Qi Chengzhi who took the initiative, she had never really made anything clear with him, and was only passively enduring under his relentless pursuit.

  Although he says he hasn't thought it through yet, isn't he always half-for and half-against him?

  In fact, she actually likes him in her heart!

  Since Qi Cheng sent her away, she had no contact with him and he didn't look for her either.

  It's almost New Year's Eve, she thought, at least she should send him a message!

  "Are you busy? Smoke a little less."

  Zi Chengzhi held Luo Yushu's mobile phone to look at the photos, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. The angle of this photo was particularly good, making him appear especially otherworldly and independent.

  Of course, Qi Chengzhi felt that it was still because his image was upright and dignified.

  He patted Luo Yushu's shoulder and encouraged: "You're doing great, you have a good chance of winning the best employee award this year."

  Luoyushu was flattered and surprised.

  Just as I was enjoying myself, my phone vibrated in my pants pocket.

  He took a look and found it was a message from Song Yu, so he happily returned the phone to Luo Yushu and let him retire.

  She took her phone out of the room and leaned against the wall in the corridor outside, opening Song Yu's message.

  As soon as he saw these words, he immediately threw the cigarette on the ground and trampled it out.

  Exhaling a lingering puff of smoke, Qi Cheng quickly typed: "Accompanying clients is so boring, have you eaten? Have you thought about me these past few days?"

  Her thumb hovered over the send button for half a day, then deleted all those words and typed out a cool "hm" before sending it off.

  Song Yu mustered up the courage to send a message, and as a result, she received only one word in return, which left her feeling somewhat disappointed and also a bit apprehensive.

  Is he going out on a business trip again and changed his mind?

  For his coldness, Song Yu felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, couldn't figure out what he meant at this time, so she didn't reply to the message again and put the phone back on the table.

  She's inherently introverted and passive, otherwise she wouldn't have hidden her feelings for Jian Yi for so many years before finally gathering the courage to confess.

  At this time, Qi Chengzhi's cold "uh-huh" extinguished the spark of courage that Song Yu had just raised.

  Zi Chengzhi leaned against the wall for half a day, but didn't get a response from Song Yu. He furrowed his brow so tightly it could pinch a fly, staring at the text message for half a day. The screen automatically turned off several times, and he reopened it, only to have the screen turn off again. Still, there was no new reply.

  After some thought, I made a phone call over there.

  Song Yu ate a mouthful of cake, but it tasted like chewing wax. Suddenly, he felt that the cake was a bit too sweet and nauseating.

  When the phone rang, Song Yu was about to take a sip of water and saw the three words "Qi Cheng Zhi" on the screen. He felt a bit suffocated in his heart, so he didn't decide whether to answer or not, and looked at the ringing phone with hesitation.

  "Not answering the phone?" Ruan Dan Chen looked at the three words "Qi Cheng" on the screen and raised an eyebrow at Song Yu.

  Song Yu furrowed his brow, refused to answer the phone, and turned around to ask Ruan Dan Chen in a low voice, "You say, I sent him a text message, I sent two sentences, but he only replied with an 'en', what's going on?"

  If it were another man, Ruan Dan Chen would say that this is a man who doesn't care about you, is impatient, and wants to naturally drift apart and break up with you.

  But the other party was Qi Chengzhi, and Ruan Danchen did not dare to use such a general tone.

  "I think you shouldn't overthink it, he looks like a quiet person, right? Do you usually send him texts often?"

  "That's not true." Song Yu shook his head.

  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

  "Ah, today I have a few things to say. Firstly, from now on, when sending monthly tickets or other items, please try to avoid doing so in the morning, especially on the first day of the month. The system is prone to glitches during this time and yesterday morning's attempts to send monthly tickets were all unsuccessful. The tickets were swallowed by the system and didn't reach me. It was really heartbreaking to see dozens of monthly tickets being swallowed up in just one morning. To be safe, let's all try sending items in the afternoon or evening from now on, avoiding the morning.

  To those who had their monthly tickets swallowed by the system, you can contact customer service after the long holiday and explain the situation to get your tickets back. Leaving a message doesn't seem to work very well, so it's better to call them directly. A sister in our group also had her ticket swallowed and was able to get it back from customer service."

  Here is the translation:

  Secondly, client-end votes 1 become 3. On September 30th, everyone was very supportive and gave me a lot of monthly tickets, but when I looked, I was shocked to find that they were all single votes, resulting in a disappointing 11th place, just 20 votes short of the top 10. So please try to use the client-end next time, maybe there are new friends who don't know how to vote. Apple users can go to App Store, Android users can download any mobile assistant on their phone and search for "Le Wen" (the name of the platform). Of course, there's an even more convenient way: most of you who voted with single tickets were using computers, right? Those of you who are used to computers can directly go to the book page with a cover, where you'll find a QR code on the left side at the bottom. Scan and install it, and you're good to go! Normally, you might use your phone or computer to read, but when voting for monthly tickets, just use the client-end once - it's not a hassle. For example, if you originally had only 1 vote, using the client-end would automatically turn it into 3 votes. Today I've said a bit too much, all of which doesn't count towards my paid word count, haha!
