As soon as the door opened, the woman outside instinctively stepped back, as if startled.

Seeing her like this, Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh a little inside.

She came to his door, so why was she scared when he opened it?

"Mr. Chen, sorry to bother you this late..." the woman said nervously, looking at Chen Yang inside.

Chen Yang looked at her expressionlessly: "What brings you to see me so late at night?"

The woman at the door looked tense and rather embarrassed.

After a pause of a second or two, she weakly replied to Chen Yang.

"Mr. Chen... can I come in and talk?" the woman asked.

Chen Yang paused upon hearing this.

What kind of matter need be discussed in the room this late at night?

Chen Yang felt something was off, but he thought it's just an ordinary woman—no big deal could come of it—so he nodded and agreed.

"Alright, you may."

Saying this, Chen Yang stepped aside to let her in.

With her head lowered, she uttered a quiet thank you and carried her bag inside Chen Yang's room.

Once inside the room, as they both sat down on the sofa, their initial communication was normal.

After a brief exchange.

Chen Yang learned her name.

Jiang Miaoyan.

It was a lovely name, giving the impression that she is a real beauty.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to bother you so late, it was actually Mr. Jin's idea..." After the brief exchange, Jiang Miaoyan inexplicably blushed, lowering her head as she said this.

Seeing her reaction, and hearing Jin Qiwei's name, Chen Yang immediately understood her intention.

They were all adults; such matters shouldn't be spelled out too clearly—a mutual understanding was enough.

"Oh, then what?"

Chen Yang instinctively asked.

But just as he opened his mouth, he immediately regretted it.

He already understood her meaning, yet he said something that could be misconstrued? He realized he might have given the wrong impression.

Thinking this, he immediately planned to explain.

But upon hearing Chen Yang's previous words, Jiang Miaoyan quickly stood up and leaned toward Chen Yang.

Her face was flushed with embarrassment, her teeth tightly clenched.

Though her actions were quite decisive, Chen Yang could tell there was a reason behind her behavior that forced her to act this way.

After getting close to Chen Yang, Jiang Miaoyan first made no contact with him.

Instead, she reached out and turned off all the lights in the room.

The room quickly plunged into darkness.

Then Chen Yang clearly felt Jiang Miaoyan coming closer, even sitting on his lap, her soft, smooth arms slowly wrapping around his neck.

The atmosphere instantly became intimate.

The warm breath of Jiang Miaoyan sounded near Chen Yang's ears, full of allure.

However, for Chen Yang, this temptation had little effect.

At that moment, Chen Yang was more curious.

He could sense Jiang Miaoyan was not as she appeared on the surface; she was not a woman of leisure.

Her eyes were so clear, and even in conversation, she seemed rather unpracticed.

Chen Yang silently lifted his hand and pressed the switch behind the room.

The lights came on instantly, and the room was brightly lit.

A second ago, Jiang Miaoyan was still sitting on his lap, and in an instant, she leaped off like a startled rabbit.

At the same time, Chen Yang noticed her face was now flushed to the extreme.

This kind of reaction was not typical for a wanton woman.

"Mr. Chen... why did you suddenly turn on the lights..." Jiang Miaoyan, like a startled rabbit, sat nearby, looking somewhat panicked and lost.

Chen Yang looked at her silently and said, "You may have misunderstood my intentions; I don't have that kind of thought, so I'd appreciate it if you could leave early and not disturb my rest."

Chen Yang's words were cold-hearted but without a tone of blame.

But upon hearing this, Jiang Miaoyan's expression inexplicably became panicked.

"Mr. Chen... have I offended you in any way?" Jiang Miaoyan asked, flustered.

Chen Yang knew she misunderstood again, so he shook his head and explained, "No, I just simply don't like this sort of thing, so there's no need for you to put in any effort. Please leave early."

Chen Yang's words left Jiang Miaoyan stunned on the spot.

It wasn't because of any other reason but simply shock that Chen Yang would not like such a thing.

He even wanted her gone.

This reshaped her understanding of men.

After a few seconds of shock, once she came to, she suddenly felt overwhelmed with sorrow, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

Chen Yang, seeing this situation, was also taken aback.

Why is she crying?

"Why are you crying?" Chen Yang couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Miaoyan continued to cry, "Mr. Chen... If you don't like it, I can do nothing; but could you please not kick me out? Let me sleep on the sofa tonight."

Hearing this, Chen Yang was even more surprised, not understanding her intention.

"Why?"

Chen Yang asked again.

Jiang Miaoyan cried bitterly.

She didn't seem to be faking it, her tears were genuine, and Chen Yang could see that clearly.

"Because Mr. Jin promised me that if I spent the night here, he would give me a significant sum of money."

"I really need that money, so please don't kick me out."

Jiang Miaoyan sincerely said, looking at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang normally felt no sympathy for women of the night.

So, under normal circumstances, he would never agree to such a request.

But that night, for some reason, Jiang Miaoyan gave him a feeling different from anyone else.

This made Chen Yang surprisingly want to agree to her request.

"You're so young, are you really in such need of money?" Chen Yang asked.

Jiang Miaoyan nodded vigorously: "I really need it. Without this money, my sister's illness can't be treated, so I must get it. Please, Mr. Chen, don't make me leave."

By now, Jiang Miaoyan had stopped crying, looking at Chen Yang with sincere, red eyes.

"Your sister is sick? So you're doing this job to earn money for your sister's treatment?" Chen Yang suddenly seemed to understand something.

"Yes." Jiang Miaoyan nodded without hesitation, indicating it was true.

Seeing this, Chen Yang had nothing more to say.

He turned and left the sofa, returning to his bed, as if he had implicitly agreed to her staying.

Seeing that Chen Yang didn't ask her to leave, Jiang Miaoyan discreetly tidied up the sofa and quietly turned off the room's lights.

The room fell into silence.

Chen Yang lying in bed didn't think much, closed his eyes, and slowly fell asleep.

Indeed, nothing happened that night.

Jiang Miaoyan made no extra moves.

She quietly slept on the sofa all night.

So when Chen Yang woke up, she was still clutching a pillow, sleeping soundly.

It seemed she was murmuring softly, looking somewhat adorable.

Looking at Jiang Miaoyan's innocent face, Chen Yang started to believe in what she said last night.
