In the suite of the box, only a warm yellow floor lamp was on.

The person lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes and looked sideways at the sofa beside the bed.

She was leaning against the back of the sofa, holding a pillow between her hands, with her head slightly lowered. Her thick and curly eyelashes hung down like a small fan. When she fell asleep, her pink little mouth was slightly pouting, and her lips were like jelly, making people want to taste it.

The man on the bed slowly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled softly. After she took great pains to lie down on the bed, she fell asleep leaning on the sofa.

The phone screen on the table next to him lit up, and the man answered the call before it rang.

Ling Che's eyes were fixed on Qiao Ruyi. He answered the phone in a low voice, "Speak."

A young man's voice came from the other end of the line, "Mr. Ling, Lin Hao said he would pay double the price for us to release him."

Ling Che chuckled, "Then treat him to delicious food and drinks."

The man asked, "Do you think the mastermind behind the kidnapping of the young lady is related to Chairman Ling's case?"

Ling Che's eyes remained fixed on Qiao Ruyi. After a moment's thought, he said, "Spread the news that Wan Hang has woken up."

"Yes." The man on the other end of the phone responded and hung up.

Ling Che got up from the bed, walked to the sofa, supported himself on the sofa beside Qiao Ruyi with his hands, lowered his head and lightly pecked her on the lips.

Just once, very gently, as if afraid of waking her up.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly for a moment, and then returned to calm.

He looked at her for a moment, his fingers gently brushing away the scattered hair on her cheeks, his eyes particularly gentle.

......

It was already the next morning when Qiao Ruyi woke up.

Golden light streamed in from outside the dark red gauze curtain and fell on her fair face.

She opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling. Suddenly she remembered something and sat up abruptly in bed.

She was the only one on the large bed.

Her thoughts went back to last night—

Ling Che fell asleep after getting drunk. She couldn't take him home, so she took him to the suite in the box. After cleaning him up, she sat on the sofa. Later, she was so sleepy that she fell asleep without knowing when.

Why am I the one in bed right now?

Where is Ling Che?

Did he run away as soon as he woke up? Leaving her here alone???

Just as I was about to pick up my phone to call him, I heard the sound of the door opening.

Then there was the sound of footsteps.

The man was wearing a neat suit and his chestnut brown hair was meticulously groomed.

He walked closer, placed his hands on either side of Qiao Ruyi, tilted his head and smiled, "Are you awake?"

He smelled of a light woody perfume, and a hint of the fresh scent of a bath.

Qiao Ruyi was a little stunned and blinked, "When did you get up?"

Not only did he get up, he also took a shower and changed his clothes.

"When I got up, you were sleeping soundly." There was a faint smile in Ling Che's narrow eyes.

Seeing his clear eyes, Qiao Ruyi suddenly remembered how he looked last night when he was drunk, hugging her like a big, spoiled puppy.

She smiled and asked, "Are you sober now?"

"Wine?" Ling Che pretended to think, "Was I drunk yesterday?"

Qiao Ruyi nodded repeatedly, "Yes, you said you were drunk."

"Really?" Ling Che smiled and stood up, "Then I don't remember."

Can not remember?

Qiao Ruyi took his hand, looked up and asked, "So you don't remember what you said yesterday?"

Ling Che raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, "What did I say yesterday?"

"You said, Qiao Ruyi, I like you, you must never leave me!"

Qiao Ruyi spoke bluntly, and she polished up Ling Che's vague words last night.

After she finished speaking, she tilted her head back and smiled with her eyes curved.

Ling Che looked at her smiling face. Two seconds later, he tapped her forehead lightly with his finger, "Qiao Ruyi, are you dreaming?"

"Hurry up and get up for breakfast."

He urged and walked out.

Qiao Ruyi felt secretly delighted, he was definitely embarrassed.

At the dining table, Qiao Ruyi suddenly remembered something and extended a hand to Ling Che, who was sitting opposite her. "Give me a card."

Ling Che raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"

"Song Yanzhi called me yesterday and asked me to pick you up. I left in a hurry and didn't bring any money." Qiao Ruyi raised her chin slightly and moved her outstretched fingers. "Hurry up and give me a card."

Ling Che placed his wallet in her palm without saying a word.

Qiao Ruyi opened her wallet, took out a card from a pile of black and gold cards, then closed the wallet and returned it to Ling Che.

Ling Che elegantly used his knife and fork to cut the bacon on the plate, seemingly having no doubts about her asking him for money.

"Don't you ask me what I want the money for?" Qiao Ruyi asked.

Ling Che smiled softly, "Whatever."

After that, he looked up at her and said, "As long as it's not a male model."

Qiao Ruyi chuckled when he heard this. It turned out that he still remembered this incident.

But having said that, the male models in Yan Yu are really good, with all the pectoral and abdominal muscles you could want.

You need both good looks and a good figure, and you need both good looks and a good figure.

As if he could tell what was going on in her mind, Ling Che suddenly approached her with a hint of threat in his eyes, "If you dare to use my money to find a male model..."

He didn't say the next words, but just raised his eyebrows, meaning, why don't you try it?

Qiao Ruyi stared at his enlarged handsome face. Isn’t he better looking than those male models?

Actions are always faster than thoughts, and she subconsciously leaned over and kissed Ling Che on the corner of his lips.

"If I'm not looking for someone, I'll look for you." She smiled.

Ling Che was very pleased with her initiative to kiss him, so he lifted her chin and kissed her hard on the lips.

......

After breakfast, Ling Che went to the company, and Qiao Ruyi went to the bar downstairs to find Fang Ran.

In the morning, there were few people in the bar, so Fang Ran had some free time.

When Qiao Ruyi went there, she was wiping the glass cabinet at the bar.

Fang Ran is an introverted person. Even if he has a lot of things hidden in his heart, he will not show it on his face.

In fact, she should be very sad in her heart, but she still goes to work every day without showing any emotion.

She didn't even look for Qiao Ruyi and Song Xilan to have a drink and chat to talk about her troubles.

She was surprised when she saw Qiao Ruyi, "Ruyi? Why are you here so early in the morning?"

Qiao Ruyi smiled, "I came to see you."

She placed a bank card in Fang Ran's hand and said, "This is for you."

Fang Ran was slightly startled, "This is..."

"Don't get me wrong, this isn't from me," Qiao Ruyi said. "This is He Yifei's compensation to you."

"Have you gone to see her?" Fang Ran asked.

"Yeah." Qiao Ruyi nodded. "The financial sponsor she hooked up with is Ling Zishi, Ling Che's cousin. He's not a good person."

Fang Ran smiled calmly, "Who she's with or what kind of person she's looking for is none of my business anymore."

"Ruyi, thank you for what you did for me." She put the bank card in Qiao Ruyi's hand, "But I know her. She can't do this to compensate me. This money is yours, right?"
