Ruan Qian'an found Zhang Yushu's words amusing.

Now that their roles have been reversed, that's why she said those things.

If I really fall for their scheme, what kind of face will Zhang Yushu have?

Ruan Qian'an put the gun away and lazily pointed out to Zhang Yushu, "You went to find Zheng Qing, didn't you?"

Zhang Yushu was surprised for a moment, then asked Ruan Qian'an, "How did you know? I haven't said anything yet! And why are you asking me if you already know?"

Ruan Qian'an smiled and selectively replied, "Is that so hard to guess?"

"And I also know who instructed you to go find Zheng Qing."

Zhang Yushu chuckled and said in an unfriendly tone, "What do you know? I don't even know, how could you possibly know?"

Then, his expression changed, and he said, "Wait."

"You say you knew? Were you the one who sent me the message?!"

Ruan Qian'an smiled at Zhang Yushu's guess and said, "You have quite the imagination."

Ruan Qian'an smiled slightly and asked Zhang Yushu, "Do you want to know who it is?"

Zhang Yushu naturally wanted to know who had sent her this message, that they would do such a thing to harm her.

Ruan Qian'an revealed a smug smile and said, "I won't tell you."

Zhang Yushu gritted her teeth and said angrily, "If you're not going to tell me, why are you asking me anything!"

Ruan Qian'an chuckled, picked up a book from the side, and said to Zhang Yushu, "Alright, tell me what your plan is."

Zhang Yushu swallowed hard and looked at Ruan Qian'an, her body full of resistance.

Can't you just leave it unsaid?

Ruan Qian'an raised an eyebrow and reached for her lower back.

Zhang Yushu was startled.

……

Zhang Yushu lay on the bed with a bruised and swollen face, inwardly screaming, "What a terrible thing to do! Why did I have to meet someone like Ruan Qian'an? I can't fight him, I'm completely outmatched!"

Ruan Qian'an came out of Zhang Yushu's place with a particularly gloomy expression.

Zheng Qing, Zheng Qing, your methods are truly ruthless. I wonder if that person was involved in this plan.

I hope not, that's something she doesn't want to see.

Ruan Qian'an sighed. Huo Jingmo, you troublemaker, you've caused me so much trouble.

With a swift and graceful step, Ruan Qian'an mounted the bicycle with remarkable ease and style.

Then I changed stations, took a bus, and walked for a while before finally getting home.

She crept into the gate, secretly observing the security guards at the entrance and those watching her from the shadows.

From a less heavily guarded area, climb over the wall to get inside, and then climb through the storage room window to enter the room.

They sneak around, avoiding this surveillance camera and that person.

Finally, she saw the door to her room and crept over in the darkness.

Ruan Qian'an placed her hand on the doorknob and used a clever technique to minimize the sound.

The door opened, and she gently pushed it open a crack, just enough for one person to pass through. She quickly slipped inside, and upon returning to the room, she became even more nervous.

She didn't dare to breathe loudly. After standing there for a while without any movement, Ruan Qian'an thought to herself, "No one has noticed anything unusual."

Although she had helped Huo Jingmo fall into a deeper sleep, she still unconsciously made much quieter movements as she rustled as she changed out of her clothes.

As soon as she returned to the bed, the bedroom light came on, and she met a pair of eyes gleaming with cold light. Ruan Qian'an thought to herself, "It's over, it's over, it's all over."

Huo Jingmo stared coldly at the sneaky, furtive person.

Ruan Qian'an swallowed hard, feeling a little guilty, and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Huo Jingmo sneered and patted the seat next to him, saying, "Can't sleep."

Huo Jingmo then asked, "Where did you go?"

Ruan Qian'an did not answer Huo Jingmo's question; she didn't know what to say.

She simply darted back to the empty seat, lay down, blinked her eyes innocently, and stared at Huo Jingmo hoping he would soften and not press her for details.

Huo Jingmo looked at the obedient Ruan Qian'an with a cold smile. He first picked up his phone and sent a message to Long Ting: "Dereliction of duty, bonus deducted, punishment."

Ruan Qian'an naturally knew that Huo Jingmo had someone watching her, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to go to Zhang Yushu's place at night.

Looking at his expression now, you can tell what Huo Jingmo is doing.

Ruan Qian'an secretly gloated, thinking to herself, "Ah, I'm really sorry, I can't even protect myself."

When Huo Jingmo put down his phone, he saw that Ruan Qian'an had her eyes closed and was fast asleep.

Huo Jingmo crossed his arms, then reached out and poked Ruan Qian'an's cheek hard, saying, "Keep pretending."

Ruan Qian'an closed her eyes and ignored him, determined to continue pretending to be asleep.

Huo Jingmo snorted coldly and pinched Ruan Qian'an's cheeks with both hands. He rubbed them hard, as if he was certain she wouldn't wake up.

Ruan Qian'an had no words to express her suffering. Alas, it was all her fault for being soft-hearted. She thought she would be back soon and that she would definitely punish him severely next time.

Who knew that Huo Jingmo's actions would become increasingly excessive, and his manipulation of Ruan Qian'an would become increasingly strange.

First, he took her two hands and placed them peacefully across his chest.

She thought she even heard Huo Jingmo chuckle to himself; in short, it was extremely awful.

Then Huo Jingmo arranged Ruan Qian'an to look like she was soaring into the sky.

He then positioned himself in a cross-legged sitting position. As Huo Jingmo went further and further, Ruan Qian'an finally couldn't take it anymore and suddenly opened her eyes.

She saw Huo Jingmo smiling, taking pictures of her with his phone in one hand, while fiddling with her with the other.

Seeing that she was awake, the smile on his face didn't lessen; he just said playfully, "You're awake?"

Ruan Qian'an was now suffering in silence, unable to express her bitterness. She could only pull the person into her arms, lie down, and mutter, "Sleep."

Huo Jingmo was caught off guard and fell down when Ruan Qian'an pulled him. He rested his head on Ruan Qian'an's arm, but he felt awkward no matter how he lay down, so he pulled Ruan Qian'an away.

He switched places with himself, letting Ruan Qian'an rest her head on his arm.

Ruan Qian'an chuckled and said lazily, "Why take this kind of thing so seriously?"

Then, she deliberately bit Huo Jingmo's collarbone, not too hard and not too soft.

Huo Jingmo pushed Ruan Qian'an's head away and said, "I won't ask you about what happened tonight. You just need to behave yourself."

Ruan Qian'an pursed her lips, then found a comfortable spot, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.

Huo Jingmo looked at Ruan Qian'an for a while and saw that she had really fallen into a deep sleep.

He sat up and stood up with his feet on the ground. Although he was not very skilled at walking, he could still walk with some support.

He walked straight to the dressing room.

Little did Huo Jingmo know that Ruan Qian'an had already opened her eyes when Huo Jingmo sat up.

She sat up, took the pistol tucked inside her nightgown, and hid it in the closet.

Huo Jingmo searched through the clothes Ruan Qian'an had just changed out of, but after searching for a while, he couldn't find what he wanted.
