After Xiao Ying entered the room, she leaned against the door and did not move.

  She stared blankly at the ceiling, her heart still beating irregularly.

  After some time, the doorbell rang.

  Xiao Ying’s long eyelashes fluttered and she turned around, glancing outside through the peephole.

  Seeing the service staff in the hotel uniform standing at the door, Xiao Ying opened the door.

  “Madam, is this your phone?”


  When Xiao Ying saw the phone the service staff handed her, she remembered that her phone had been snatched away by Long Ming and thrown to the ground. She had forgotten to pick it up before she went in.

  “It’s mine. Thank you.” Xiao Ying smiled.

  The service staff returned the phone to Xiao Ying and then passed a diamond cufflink to her. “This cufflink was beside your phone. Is it your boyfriend’s?”


  Xiao Ying took the cufflinks and glanced at it.

  If she remembered correctly, this was Long Ming’s exclusive cufflink.

  “It’s from a gentleman I know.”


  “Then, please pass it to him!”


  After the service staff left, Xiao Ying entered the room.

  Sitting on the sofa, she stared at the exquisite and luxurious cufflink in her hand for a long time.

  It was only when the night darkened that Xiao Ying finally put down the cufflink.

  Xiao Ying wanted to sleep, but she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

  She was returning to R Country tomorrow, so she had to return Long Ming’s exclusive cufflinks to him.

  …


  After Long Ming left Xiao Ying’s hotel, he went to the bar alone.

  It had been a long time since he had been so indulgent.

  After drinking a lot, the bartender used his phone to call Lou Lan to ask her to pick him up.

  After Lou Lan helped the drunk Long Ming into the car, they drove to the hotel.

  Opening the back door, Lou Lan looked at Long Ming, who had woken up unknowingly and was staring at the roof of the car with cold eyes. Lou Lan leaned in. “Ming, if you’re unhappy, you can tell me. Don’t hold it in.”


  Hearing Lou Lan’s voice, Long Ming glanced at her.

  After Lou Lan had taken a bath, her long hair was let down and she was wearing a long white dress. She had no makeup on and looked clean and fresh. Long Ming’s gaze on her was slightly dazed. “When you women are ruthless, you’re harder than a rock.”


  Lou Lan’s eyelashes fluttered.

  What did he mean?

  Them women?

  Had he met that woman at the mall tonight?

  Lou Lan’s heart immediately felt like a bottle of mixed emotions had been knocked over and she felt extremely upset.

  She had always thought that he was emotionless and it was hard for a woman to enter his heart.

  She had not expected him to have a woman he cared about!

  Lou Lan looked down, burying the bitterness and jealousy in her heart.

  “Ming, I’m not that kind of woman.” Lou Lan looked at Long Ming, her teary eyes reflecting Long Ming’s figure. They were affectionate and focused.

  Long Ming looked at Lou Lan’s hawk-like eyes and slowly narrowed his eyes.

  Since that woman was already married and had a new life, why should he be immersed in his memories?

  Long Ming reached out and grabbed Lou Lan’s wrist.

  The next second, Lou Lan fell into his arms.

  Smelling the fresh and charming scent of red wine on him, Lou Lan’s heart almost stopped beating.

  She looked at the man who had pulled her into his arms in disbelief. The dim yellow light in the car landed on his handsome and cold face, as if it was covered with a layer of faint light. Every inch of his lines and contours looked like they had been carefully carved by a master craftsman.

  It was extremely moving.

  This was the first time Lou Lan was so close to him.

  She could not help but put her hands on his firm shoulders and said with a trembling voice, “Ming, you’re my fiancé. In the future, we will grow old together. I will never betray you, nor will I make you sad.”


  She leaned her face against his chest, her face flushed red. “I’ll support you no matter what you do. If you’re unhappy, I’ll accompany you.”


  Long Ming’s slender fingers pinched Lou Lan’s chin and lifted her face.

  Seeing her teary eyes, he narrowed his eyes.

  His well-defined handsome face approached Lou Lan’s small face.

  Their breaths intertwined.

  …


  Xiao Ying arrived at Long Ming’s hotel and handed the cufflink to the front desk.

  She walked out of the hotel, preparing to take a taxi back to the hotel.

  From the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a black sedan parked outside the hotel.

  She immediately recognized that it was Long Ming’s car.

  Recalling how he had said, “If you see me in the future, you’d better hide far away. If not, don’t blame me for being rude to you!” Xiao Ying hid behind a marble pillar instinctively.

  After a while, she saw Lou Lan getting out of the car.

  Lou Lan opened the back door as Long Ming sat in the back.

  Lou Lan leaned in as if she wanted to help him out of the car.

  They were a little far away and Xiao Ying could not hear what they were saying.

  Just as Xiao Ying was about to leave quietly when they could not see her, she saw the man in the car pull Lou Lan into the car.

  Lou Lan fell onto his lap and wrapped his arms around his neck.

  Before the car door closed, she saw his face approach Lou Lan’s.

  It was obvious what they were going to do next.

  The car door was closed and the dark car screen blocked Xiao Ying’s sight.

  Xiao Ying walked out from behind the pillar and did not look at the car again.

  Her exquisite face was expressionless.

  …


  In the car.

  Lou Lan closed her eyes and felt the man’s breath approaching. Her heart beat faster and faster.

  Just when she thought he would kiss her, he suddenly leaned against her shoulder.

  Lou Lan hurriedly opened his eyes and looked at him.

  He lay on her shoulder, unmoving.

  He seemed to have fallen asleep.

  Lou Lan pushed him lightly. “Ming?”


  He did not respond.

  Seeing that he had really fallen asleep, Lou Lan immediately became like a deflated balloon, completely powerless.

  She had finally gotten a chance to be his woman, but he had been so drunk!

  Lou Lan could only call Mo Tian and ask him to come down to help her bring Long Ming back to the suite.

  The next day.

  Lou Lan pressed the doorbell of Long Ming’s room.

  After the doorbell rang for a while, the door opened. Long Ming was wearing an exquisite black shirt and perfectly ironed suit pants. He was no longer as dispirited as he had been last night and had returned to being that cold and aloof King.

  “Ming, I helped you back last night and I think I dropped my bracelet in your room.”


  Long Ming narrowed his cold eyes and said coldly, “How did your bracelet land up in my room?”


  His words made Lou Lan’s heart sink.

  He actually had no recollection of him hugging her and almost kissing her last night!

  “You drank too much. I helped you back to your room.”


  Long Ming’s expression was dark. “I’m sorry, I don’t have any impression of that.”


  Lou Lan looked down, hiding his disappointment.

  …


  After breakfast, Xiao Ying went to the Qiao mansion . After saying goodbye to Cen Xi, she went to the airport.

  …
