Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ruan Danchen felt like her heart was trembling. She took a deep breath and stared at Qi Chenglin. She suddenly realized that she had fallen in love with this man.

She realized that she did not merely like him anymore. She loved all his qualities—his gentleness, his rascal-like behavior, his responsibility, and the way he tried to protect her.

“Not getting out of the car?” said Qi Chenglin stared at her with the corner of his mouth curling upward while she was lost in thought.

Ruan Danchen collected her thoughts and pinched his hand yearningly. Suddenly, she did not feel like going to work, she just wished she could stay by his side now.

This was the first time she experienced the feeling of loving someone, and she truly wished she could look at him all the time.

“Drive safely,” said Ruan Danchen softly.

Suddenly, Qi Chenglin unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned toward her. He placed his blazing hot palms on her waist, and his sexy and tender lips almost touched her lips.

She heard him saying with his husky and attractive voice, “I’ll come and fetch you at noon, then we can have lunch together.”

“Mhm,” replied Ruan Danchen softly.

He rubbed his lips against hers, and asked her gently, “I haven’t asked you about it, are you still aching this morning?”

“I’m feeling slightly better,” said Ruan Danchen quietly. Her lips were trembling.

“So can we do it again tonight?” Qi Chenglin’s ebony eyes glowed immediately, he was looking forward to it.

“Qi Chenglin.” Ruan Danchen was annoyed, why did he keep on thinking about that?

Qi Chenglin smiled at her gently with his ebony eyes and pinched her waist. “You should leave now.”

He let go of his hand, but Run Danchen was not in a hurry to get out of the car. She gazed at Qi Chenglin’s handsome face. She could feel that her feelings for him were getting more powerful ever since she realized she had fallen in love with him.

She put her hand on the car door. She did not know how she was able to summon the courage to tell him about her feelings, but she felt a strong urge to say it, and she said it from the bottom of her heart involuntarily, “Qi Chenglin, I think thatI have fallen in love with you.”

After saying that, she dared not look at his reaction. She did not even wait for his reply. She blushed furiously and opened the car door and got out of the car at the speed of light.

Qi Chenglin was stunned, she confessed her love to him so boldly without any hints before that. He did not stop her from running away immediately after confessing because he was astonished.

After he collected his thoughts, Ruan Danchen was already out of his sight after she dashed into another street.

Qi Chenglin could not help but smile, the happiness he felt now was indescribable. He was feeling euphoric.

His heart was beating happily, and he could feel his heartbeat in the throat. He was thrilled and touched, it felt like he was a youngster who had just listened to a confession of a girl who he liked, and the happiness that he felt was beyond words.

Qi Chenglin started his car, then he found out that his hands were trembling because he was too excited. He lowered his head and laughed softly, his voice was extremely attractive and husky. If Ruan Danchen was by his side now, she would probably have a chance to experience orgasm just by hearing his voice.

Not long after Qi Chenglin made a turn, he saw Ruan Danchen was running like a madwoman. The way she ran actually looked quite foolish, but in Qi Chenglin’s eyes it was extremely adorable. The only thing he was thinking now was to get out of his car and dragged her into his car, then brought her home and threw her onto his bed.

Qi Chenglin found a space to park his car in front of the entrance of Chengshi, then he took out his cell phone and called Ruan Danchen. At that time, Ruan Danchen happened to reach the doorway of her company’s building. She slowed down her footsteps as she was gasping for breath, then she took out her phone from her bag.

Her face looked extremely gorgeous now because she was blushing, but she was unsure whether the blush was due to the intense running just now or due to her confession.

Qi Chenglin saw Ruan Danchen used the back of her hand to wipe away the sweat on her forehead and lowered her head to look at her phone. She paused for a while, then she hung up.

“…” Qi Chenglin.

How could she refuse to answer his call after confessing to him! How could she be so irresponsible!

After that, he saw Ruan Danchen put her phone back into her bag and walked into the office building.

…

…

Ruan Danchen’s face was still burning due to the blush. She did not know how she summoned the courage to confess her love to him, she just blurted out the words. She dared not even answer Qi Chenglin’s call just now. She was still at a loss when he called her, so she straight away hung up without thinking it through.

She was quite afraid to hear his overly proud voice.

After Ruan Danchen entered the elevator, she touched her face and sighed.

Qi Chenglin did not call her anymore after she walked out of the elevator. Ruan Danchen could not tell whether she was relieved or very disappointed.

After she entered her office, she noticed Yang Yunshu was sitting in her old seat before she was transferred to another department. There was a lot of stuff on her desk and the computer was on.

Yang Yunshu was arranging his personal belongings on the desk when she saw Ruan Danchen walked in. She stared at her proudly and snorted.

Ruan Danchen curiously glanced at her. Then, she sat down and switched on her computer. After a while, she received an email from the human resources department which stated that Yang Yunshu was transferred back to the design department because they were understaffed.

Ruan Danchen shook her head, she finally found out the reason she was so pleased with herself.

However, she hoped that Yang Yunshu would not find fault with her after she achieved her goal. She was stressed every day during work because she had to face clients from all walks of life. Therefore, she did not want to be further annoyed by Yang Yunshu.

She started to work after she had settled down. Suddenly, she heard Yang Yunshu’s voice when she was lowering her head to study something. “Director Zhao, Mr Mu.”

Ruan Danchen raised her head in astonishment, then she saw Director Zhao was walking into the office with Mu Huaisheng.

Director Zhao’s wife had told Director Zhao about the transfer of Yang Yunshu. Director Zhao was not against it because Song Yu was on vacation leave and they need more manpower, but the most important reason may be that he was always intimidated by his wife.

Director Zhao smiled and said, “The thing is, Mr. Mu wants to renovate two of his residences, one of them is a condominium and the other one is a villa. If anyone of you are interested, you all can propose your idea to Mr. Mu and we’ll see Mr. Mu likes whose idea the most.”

Although Director Zhao told the staff that, Mu Huaisheng fixed his stare at Ruan Danchen.

Director Zhao turned his head and stared at her too, Ruan Danchen could only say, “I still have some work that needs to be completed as soon as possible. Yang Yunshu was just transferred here, she should have time for it.”

Yang Yunshu did not understand why Ruan Danchen did not seize such a good opportunity.

Opportunities like this were hard to come by, it would be beneficial for the career prospect and private relationships of the person who accepted the assignment because that person would have an extra assignment to work on and have the chance to get close to Mu Huaisheng.

Mu Huaisheng looked away from Ruan Danchen and nodded, then he said in an indifferent tone, “Then I shall offer the assignment to Miss Yang, please contact my assistant if you have any questions.”

Director Zhao knew that Mu Huaisheng had set his mind to offering Ruan Danchen his assignment. He did not understand why Ruan Danchen was messing around now, she did not have any important projects now, yet she refused to grab such a great chance. What if Mu Huaisheng thought that she was behaving insolently and unhappily left the office straight away?

The profit from this assignment was not very high, but it was a good chance to build rapport with him, and it would matter more than earning profit from the project.

Humph! If it were not for her close relationship with Song Yu and he was afraid to make Song Yu unhappy, he would have asked Ruan Danchen to leave the company in the beginning.

Director Zhao glanced at Ruan Dachen unhappily again, then he saw Mu Huaisheng off.

“Humph, stop acting so smugly, you even rejected an assignment offered to you in person.” Yang Yunshu rolled her eyes at Ruan Danchen.

Ruan Danchen took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. She said coldly, “Yang Yunshu, just accept the assignment that was offered to you, why are you blabbering so much? How about I call Mu Huaisheng now and say that I want to accept that assignment now? If so, would you still keep on blabbering?”

“Don’t talk like you’re doing something charitable by letting me do it!” Yang Yunshu blushed angrily because she felt like she was living off Ruan Danchen. “Who do you think you are to make Mu Huaisheng do what is told by you? Do you really think he’ll do everything that you ask him to do?”

Ruan Danchen did not want to argue with her, her cell phone rang just in time, but unexpectedly, it was Mu Huaisheng who called her.

She sighed heavily and walked out of the office without looking at Yang Yunshu.

Yang Yunshu was fuming, she snorted angrily as she stared at Ruan Danchen’s back.

Ruan Danchen walked to the stairwell and closed the two doors of the emergency exits, then only she answered the call. She said with a polite tone, and tried to sound slightly unfriendly, “Mr. Mu.”

“Miss Ruan, I call you not because I have any other intentions. I just wanted to tell you that I would not force you if you don’t have feelings for me. However, I hope that would not affect your work and causes you to purposely refuse to accept my assignments just because of me.” She could hear Mu Huaisheng talking with his elegant voice on the phone.

His voice was very attractive like those famous commentators on the internet. His pronunciation was very clear, and he was able to articulate his idea well. When she heard his voice, she would involuntarily think of his graceful demeanor.

Ruan Danchen remained silent so Mu Huaisheng continued to say, “I know that you don’t like me, but I hope at least you see me as your friend. I’m such a man, even if you don’t reciprocate my feelings for you, I still hope that I can be your friend because you’re the woman I like. I hope that I can help you if I’m able to. To be honest, I’m quite hurt when you reject my good intentions.”

Ruan Danchen was quite astonished because Mu Huaisheng did not question her about what happened between Qi Chenglin and her.

Mu Huaisheng’s way of thinking was simple, he did not want to lose his poise. Ruan Danchen told her in the beginning that she was reluctant to start a new relationship, but not long after that, she started dating Qi Chenglin. Therefore, it was apparent that she was just finding an excuse to reject him at that time so he should not ask questions that would make her feel that he was graceless and annoying.

“I merely wanted to avoid making Qi Chenglin angry because he is not so tolerant of this kind of matter,” explained Ruan Danchen indifferently.

Qi Chenglin could still remember that Mu Huaisheng held her arm before. If she accepted Mu Huaisheng’s assignment and contacted him frequently or went to his house, she could not imagine how furious that man would be.

Mu Huaisheng did not know whether Ruan Danchen realized that she would unconsciously spoke very gently and sweetly when she spoke of Qi Chenglin or not.

“Are you planning to exclude yourself from all future assignments that are related to me?” asked Mu Huaisheng involuntarily.

Ruan Danchen had to admit that she did not think about the long-term consequences when she rejected his offer today because the first thing that she thought of was to avoid making Qi Chenglin angry. She did not realize that if she rejected his offer, it may affect her career prospects at Chengshi.

When Mu Huaisheng asked her about it now, Ruan Danchen considered it seriously for a while, then she said, “I’ll avoid involving myself in your assignments as much as possible.”

Mu Huaisheng was startled for a while. After a moment, he laughed softly as he shook his head. He said helplessly, “That being the case, I shall not force you.”

After she hung up, Ruan Danchen returned to her office and ignored Yang Yunshu.

…

…

When it was almost lunchtime just before noon, Ruan Danchen received Qi Chenglin’s call. He told her that he was waiting on the roadside opposite her company’s building.

Since she was in the office, Ruan Danchen only dared to reply to him by saying “Mhm”.

“Such a simple way to reply to me by just saying ‘Mhm’ and nothing else?” said Qi Chenglin unhappily as he pouted.

Ruan Danchen looked around and hurriedly walked out of the office while holding her phone.

After she reached the stairwell, she finally dared to reply, “What do you want me to say some more?”

Qi Chenglin could feel that she had changed her tone as she was talking in a gentler tone. His lips curled into an attractive grin.

He was sitting in the car and looking at the office building opposite the road. He raised his hand and looked at his watch, “It’s about time, you can come out now.”

After she hung up, Ruan Danchen checked the time and found out it was already noon. She returned to her office to take her bag and leave, but she saw Director Zhao’s wife was standing in front of her desk.

“Xiao Ruan, why aren’t you always sitting at your desk?” asked Director Zhao’s wife unhappily.

“I was answering a call from a client just now.” Ruan Danchen simply found an excuse.

“Why couldn’t you talk to the client at your desk? Please take note of this. What if your clients come to meet with you when you’re not around?” When she heard her excuse, Director Zhao’s wife immediately thought of what Yang Yunshu told her when she snitched on Ruan Danchen.

Could it be that Ruan Danchen was flirting with the client? Maybe that was the reason she deemed it inappropriate to talk in the office?

“I’ll take note of that.” Ruan Danchen could only reply to her like that.

Director Zhao’s wife stared at her sternly, then she left.

Ruan Danchen heaved a sigh of relief, then she heard someone snorted when she was tidying up her desk. She did not raise her head, but she saw Yang Yunshu passed by her from the corner of her eyes and she was the person who snorted just now.

Ruan Danchen shook her head and kept her things, but she waited until almost everybody had left before she walked out of the office.

…

…

After she walked out of her office building, she saw Qi Chenglin’s car on the opposite roadside. She remembered that she confessed to him in the morning, but he did not mention it at all on the phone just now.

She regretted confessing to him impulsively in the morning. Although she was embarrassed now, she could only bite the bullet and walked toward his car.

After she got into the car, she saw Qi Chenglin’s suit was thrown on the passenger and he had removed his necktie as well. The air conditioner was on because of the hot weather. He rolled up the sleeves of his shirt till below elbows and revealed his muscular arms.

His black hair covered his arms, the layer of was neither too dense nor too sparse. Ruan Danchen felt that the density of his hair was just fine, and it made him looked extremely sexy.

The way he dressed did not make people feel that he was unkempt, but it gave him a carefree appearance. His muscular physique also fitted well with his shirt, he truly looked good in anything he wore.

“Are you gaping at me again?” Qi Chenglin was staring at her with a teasing smile.

Ruan Danchen was indeed staring at him in awe, she could not believe that this was her man the longer she looked at him.

She could not stop herself from feeling a little proud.

Suddenly, he leaned toward her and pushed her back toward him so that she would lean tightly against his body. Then, he started to kiss her aggressively.

Ruan Danchen was blushing furiously. They were still in the car and there were so many people passing by. She was sure someone would have seen them making out.

Her body was pushed backward by him until her back touched the car door, then he leaned forward and sucked her lips recklessly.

After quite some time, Ruan Danchen’s lips became numb and swollen. She was almost unable to talk anymore. Finally, he let go of her, but he was still gently rubbing his lips against hers and said with a deep and husky voice, “Do you miss me now?”

Ruan Danchen’s heart was beating extremely fast. She felt like she had exhausted her courage when she confessed to him this morning. She could not even tell him that she missed him now.

However, she held his face with her hands and stared at his graceful face. She was fascinated and aroused by his face, and she suddenly leaned forward and pecked his lips.

It was a very quick peck, she retreated right after she pecked his lips. She was blushing furiously.

Qi Chenglin could not help but laugh softly. His ebony eyes were filled with his affection for her. His lips curled into a sexy and attractive curve, and he kissed her again.

He stuck his lips on hers and breathed into her mouth. “I missed you the whole morning. You said that you love me in the morning, but I didn’t react to you in time. So, I wish to tell you now—I love you too.”

Ruan Danchen took a deep breath in astonishment, she was truly not mentally prepared to hear that. She felt a little disappointed since morning, but she felt like there was a blasting sound in her heart after hearing his words.

Qi Chenglin smiled after he saw her reaction, then he kissed her again. After that, he retreated quietly and started the car.

Ruan Danchen was still stunned like she was just struck by lightning. She was dumbfounded until he stopped his car in front of Dynasty.

Qi Chenglin got out of the car and dragged her out. He let the worker of Dynasty drove his car away and he dragged Ruan Danchen into Dynasty by clutching her hands.

Ruan Danchen was still bewildered. When she was in the elevator, she noticed that Qi Chenglin was not bringing her to have lunch in a private dining room. She saw the elevator’s button showing the number “12” was lighted.

Qi Chenglin kept quiet and held her hand as they walked out of the elevator and entered a room. Ruan Danchen felt uncomfortable abruptly.

“We’re not having lunch?” It was a suite, and Ruan Danchen followed Qi Chenglin to the living room. Her heart was beating wildly as she was very nervous.

“It’s more peaceful to have our lunch here, no one will disturb us,” answered Qi Chenglin calmly.

“…” Ruan Danchen was speechless, nobody would disturb them even if they had lunch in his private room. Did they need to come here?

There was only one reason he brought her here straight away, and Ruan Danchen knew surely what the reason was.

However, that guy had just fooled around with her for the whole night yesterday, couldn’t he just rest now!

Ruan Danchen did not ask him about it because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed. He would surely tease her by saying that she got carried away.

After a while, a waiter came in and he was holding a menu. Ruan Danchen was a little embarrassed by herself as it seemed like Qi Chenglin truly came here to have lunch. Could it be that she really got carried away?

Since when her mind became so abnormal and kept on thinking about sex?

Ruan Danchen was quite embarrassed by herself at that time, she felt that her thoughts were too dirty.

Qi Chenglin looked away from the menu and stared at Ruan Danchen. “Why are your face so red?”

“Is it? Maybe the weather is too hot.” Ruan Danchen felt embarrassed to look at him. She averted his gaze and looked around while using her hand to fan her cheeks.

“I turned on the air conditioner of the car all the way here, and we just walked for a short distance before we entered the hotel, and the hotel is air-conditioned as well. Why would you feel hot?” Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows.

Ruan Danchen glared at him. He should not embarrass her in front of others. Why must he make her say her thoughts out loud?

Qi Chenglin’s lips curled upward slightly, and he stared at her mockingly. “If you’re feeling hot, please bear with it.”

Ruan Danchen was unsure whether she misunderstood his words, but she felt like his words had hidden meaning.

She glimpsed the waiter and found out that he was blushing slightly. Ruan Danchen immediately blushed furiously, and she felt so embarrassed to talk even after quite some time.

Qi Chenglin looked away from her and started to order food. Ruan Danchen heard him ordered spicy dishes only, and she remembered Aunt Zheng’s words, so she said, “Why are you ordering spicy dishes only?”
