"Director Jiang, Bai Minglang has been taken away."
After seeing off Zhou Dong and the others, Wan Yunting gently opened the door to Jiang Tongxin's bedroom. He saw her leaning against the headboard, lost in thought. Hearing his words, she snapped back to reality. Her gaze flickered towards Wan Yunting, then immediately shifted away. She nodded slightly.
Knowing that her boyfriend had drugged her last night, the blow was too great. Wan Yunting stood at the doorway without entering and asked, "Director Jiang, are you feeling unwell anywhere else? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"No, I just need to rest for a day. You go be with Ke'er."
Jiang Tongxin, with her head lowered, maintained her usual cool and distant attitude as she spoke.
Wan Yunting nodded, then hesitated before saying, "Director Jiang, about last night, I..."
Jiang Tongxin immediately looked up, her reddened eyes meeting Wan Yunting's gaze with resilience. Biting her lower lip, she said, "I've already said it, you were treating me. I hope you can forget about this matter from now on, and I don't need you to take responsibility for me, understand?"
Wan Yunting's expression was slightly dazed. He finally nodded with a sheepish smile, "I understand. You get some rest. I'll go check on Ke'er..."
With that, he closed the door for her. Wan Yunting turned and entered Su Ke'er's room, leaving Jiang Tongxin sitting on the bed, her expression instantly becoming incredibly dejected and lonely. The experience of last night had completely crushed her spirit. Perhaps from today onwards, Jiang Tongxin would never be able to find a boyfriend again...
"Brother Yunting, you're here..."
Su Ke'er, who was lying on the bed, was in a completely different mood. Although she had lost consciousness last night, she didn't know what it felt like to be intimate with a man. So, she had been thinking about it continuously, her face already flushed with embarrassment. Seeing Wan Yunting enter, she excitedly sat up and pouted, saying in a sweet voice, "My head hurts. Brother Yunting, can you massage it for me?"
"Still hurting? Let me take a look..."
Wan Yunting went over and sat by the bed, taking her wrist to feel her pulse. Su Ke'er gazed at him with her large, watery eyes full of affection. Wan Yunting glanced at her and said, "You're fine. It's just a side effect of the medication causing the headache. Rest well today, and it won't hurt tonight."
"Mmm-hmm..."
Su Ke'er nodded her head. Suddenly, she lunged forward and hugged Wan Yunting tightly, acting spoiled. "Brother Yunting, you did that to me last night. Do you have to take responsibility for me?"
These words left Wan Yunting stunned, and his heart felt bitter.
Originally, when he came over last night, he had intended to explain things clearly to Su Ke'er, telling her that they couldn't be together in the future.
But now, because of Bai Minglang, he had completely become intimate with Ke'er. Wan Yunting felt that it wouldn't be manly to just wipe his hands and leave.
"Ke'er, the situation last night was too critical, I..."
Su Ke'er immediately sat up and gently touched Wan Yunting's face, interrupting him. She pouted and said, "Brother Yunting, I know you can't break up with Fang Yanxi because of me, but I don't care. I just want to be with you, even if it's secretly. I want to be with you forever, as long as you have me in your heart."
This time, Wan Yunting's expression froze. Facing Su Ke'er's deep, affectionate gaze, it was evident how deep her feelings for him were for her to say such a thing. This made Wan Yunting's heart soften completely. He hugged Su Ke'er and said gently, "Ke'er, no matter what the future holds, I will love you well now."
"Mmm-hmm..."
Hearing the man's words, Su Ke'er hugged Wan Yunting's neck, tears of joy streaming down her face because she loved this man so, so much.
Wan Yunting gently caressed her back to comfort her. Then, Su Ke'er raised her head, her watery eyes looking at him, her cheeks flushed with shyness. Before Wan Yunting could react, her alluring cherry-red lips met his...
This passionate kiss made it difficult for Wan Yunting to refuse. He hugged Su Ke'er and lay down on the bed, kissing her...
"Alright Ke'er, you're not feeling well. Rest properly first. I'll order breakfast for you." After kissing for a few minutes, Wan Yunting quickly got up. If they continued kissing, he wouldn't be able to control himself.
"No..."
But how could Su Ke'er let him go so easily? Her delicate hands wrapped around Wan Yunting's neck, her tender pink cheeks and affectionate, watery eyes looking at the man passionately. She shyly said, "Brother Yunting, I didn't feel anything last night. Why don't you try it with me now..."
Wan Yunting's expression froze. Facing Ke'er's irresistibly charming coquetry, any man would lose control. However, he maintained his rationality, considering Ke'er's health. He removed her hands that were hooked around his neck and said, "Ke'er, your body is not well right now, you can't do that. Let's wait a couple of days until you're better, okay?"
Because last night had been too intense, and it was Su Ke'er's first time, it was naturally not suitable.
"Then, okay, how about tomorrow, tomorrow?"
Su Ke'er, like a puddle of water, lay softly in his arms, smiling cutely.
"Alright, whatever you say..."
Unable to resist the girl's cooing, Wan Yunting could only agree to her requests...
After playfully interacting with Su Ke'er in bed for a while, the ordered breakfast delivery arrived.
Wan Yunting took one portion to Jiang Tongxin. He stayed with Su Ke'er until noon. Seeing that both girls were feeling better, he then left Jiang Tongxin's home...
Meanwhile, at Chaoting Group, Fang Yanxi, in the CEO's office, was processing documents. She then called Lin Xiaoqi, who was outside, and said, "Xiaoqi, ask Manager Bai to bring me the investigation materials for Taihe Group."
Lin Xiaoqi replied, "President Fang, Manager Bai didn't come to work today."
Fang Yanxi looked up at her and asked, "Did he take leave?"
"No."
Lin Xiaoqi shook her head and said, "I heard from people in his department that Manager Bai didn't apply for leave, but he hasn't shown up this morning."
Just then, there was a knock on the office door. A middle-aged man in a suit appeared. Fang Yanxi asked Lin Xiaoqi to open the door. This was Vice President Hu Zhixue, who said, "President Fang, I have something to report to you. Captain Zhou from the police station just called me and said Bai Minglang has been arrested by them!"
"Ah, Manager Bai was arrested by the police?" Lin Xiaoqi was immediately shocked by the news.
Fang Yanxi's expression also became slightly surprised, and she asked, "What was he arrested for?"
Hu Zhixue replied, "I've already sent someone to the police station to find out, but that Captain Zhou said that Manager Bai was arrested for suspected drugging and rape!"
"My goodness, drugging and rape..."
Lin Xiaoqi's eyes widened in disbelief.
Fang Yanxi's brows also furrowed. She hadn't expected Bai Minglang to do something like this.
After all, she and the man detested such behavior. Bai Minglang was truly a wolf in sheep's clothing.
"President Fang, Bai Minglang is, after all, the marketing department manager of our company, and holds a high position. If this matter gets out, it will only be detrimental to our company. Therefore, this matter must be kept confidential and absolutely cannot be leaked to the outside world," Hu Zhixue suggested.
Fang Yanxi nodded and said, "Mr. Hu, find a reason and handle Bai Minglang's dismissal."
"Okay, I understand. President Fang, you carry on with your work." Hu Zhixue nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Lin Xiaoqi immediately exclaimed excitedly, "President Fang, I never imagined Manager Bai would be..."
"Stop!"
Fang Yanxi pointed at the girl and sternly said, "Do not say a word about this matter, do you understand?"
Lin Xiaoqi immediately covered her mouth with her hand, nodding cutely in understanding.
"Go back to work."
Fang Yanxi waved her hand. She didn't care about Bai Minglang's matter. Someone like him, a wolf in sheep's clothing, deserved to be arrested by the police...
However, Fang Yanxi didn't expect that Bai Minglang's incident would be related to the man, and even facilitated Wan Yunting and Su Ke'er's relationship...
At this moment, Wan Yunting had driven back home. He hadn't returned last night, and he needed to check on Duan Yingying.
"Mr. Wan is back."
Huang Guilan, who was tidying up the front yard, saw him return and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten lunch yet? There are still some dishes in the kitchen, I'll warm them up for you."
"Okay, Aunt Lan."
Wan Yunting indeed hadn't had lunch yet. He then asked, "By the way, how is Yingying? Did she make a fuss last night?"
Huang Guilan shook her head and smiled, "No, that girl practiced swordsmanship in the backyard all day yesterday, and went to sleep downstairs after dinner."
"That's good."
Hearing that Duan Yingying hadn't caused any trouble because he hadn't returned last night, Wan Yunting was relieved. He asked, "Where is she now?"
"She's probably watching a movie downstairs."
"Alright, I'll go down and see her."
With that, Wan Yunting headed down to the basement. Huang Guilan went to the kitchen to warm up the dishes for him...
The sound of a movie playing could indeed be heard from the movie room. Wan Yunting pushed the door open and entered. He saw Duan Yingying wearing a casual and comfortable long dress, munching on snacks while watching a movie, completely unaware of Wan Yunting entering.
Seeing the girl engrossed in the movie, Wan Yunting picked up the remote and turned off the movie, plunging the room into darkness. Duan Yingying let out a yell, "Ah, why did it stop..."
Wan Yunting, standing beside her, was startled by her scream. He hadn't expected Duan Yingying to react so strongly. He scolded her, "What are you yelling about?"
"Ah..."
The sudden sound also startled Duan Yingying. She turned her head and saw Wan Yunting. She immediately patted her chest with her small hand, and then her large eyes widened in anger. "Wan Yunting, are you a cat? You walk without making a sound, you scared me."
Wan Yunting turned on the lights in the movie room and glared at her. "What time is it? You're still in the mood to watch movies here. Did you finish practicing the Hundred Forms of the Limitless Sword Technique you were supposed to practice yesterday?"
The angry Duan Yingying glared at him fiercely, her eyes wide with indignation. She huffed furiously, "I finished practicing long ago. I'm watching a movie now, is that bothering you? Give me the remote quickly..."
"You still want to watch?"
Wan Yunting naturally wouldn't give her the remote. He pointed at her nose and scolded her, "Do you think practicing the Hundred Forms of the Limitless Sword Technique a hundred times will make you the number one in the world? Will it allow you to get revenge?"
"You..."
Her words struck a nerve, leaving Duan Yingying speechless. She could only grit her teeth and glare fiercely at this scoundrel of a man...
