The phone rang, and Jing Yue put down the documents in his hand to answer it. "Hello, Officer Lu."

"Hello, Assistant Jing." A steady and powerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

Jing Yue asked, "Is there a result in the case?"

"Yes, the case has been solved." Lu Jiaheng said succinctly, "Through our investigation, interviews, and technical identification, we have finally identified the deceased and determined the cause of death. We have also apprehended the perpetrator."

"This is really great."

"According to regulations, you can resume work in three days."

"Okay, Officer Lu, now that the case is closed, could you please provide us with a formal written notification? As you know, we need to communicate with various departments, partners, and workers. A written notification will put everyone at ease."

“Of course,” Lu Jiaheng readily agreed. “We will send you the case closure notice and related documents as soon as possible. Please check your mail then.”

Jing Yue thanked him, "Thank you, Officer Lu."

Lu Jiaheng responded, "This is what we should do."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and then hung up the phone.

Jing Yue sent a message to Jun Yan, who hadn't started work yet, to let him know, and then got up to attend a meeting.

If you're not the boss, you have to work hard for the boss.

depressed.

Which boss likes to abandon their responsibilities when they fall in love?

His home!

No, that's not right. They didn't talk about it at all; if they had, things would have been even worse!

Shi Fei slowly woke up, feeling dizzy and her throat so dry it felt like it was about to split open.

She instinctively wanted to get up and get some water, but as soon as she moved, a wave of soreness washed over her.

The scenes of our passionate lovemaking from last night keep flashing through my mind.

Bathroom sink, sofa, bed.

Shi Fei's face flushed instantly. She lifted the blanket and looked at herself, her body covered in intimate marks.

My heartbeat suddenly quickened.

She turned to look at the man sleeping soundly beside her. His hand was casually resting on her waist, and he was sleeping peacefully.

Enraged and embarrassed, she kicked the man, accompanied by a low groan.

Lu Zhiyan was caught off guard and rolled off the bed, landing awkwardly on the floor.

"Ouch!" Lu Zhiyan winced in pain, groggily lifting his head and looking innocently at the unhappy Shi Fei on the bed. He subconsciously called out, "Feifei."

He rubbed his sore bottom, a dazed look on his face, as if he hadn't fully woken up from his sleep.

"I want some water." Shi Fei felt a little guilty, but ignored his grievances and ordered, "Warm water."

Lu Zhiyan was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, turned around and walked quickly to the small tea table in the room, picked up the kettle and poured the steaming water into the water glass.

Steam was rising, indicating that the temperature was too high.

His gaze fell on another cup, which he picked up, and then poured the hot water from the cup into the empty one.

The boiling water flowed back and forth between the two cups, and the heat gradually dissipated.

Take a small sip.

The temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, with a comfortable warmth.

He breathed a sigh of relief, a smile of satisfaction spreading across his face, and quickly walked to the bedside with his water glass in hand.

"Feifei, come here." Lu Zhiyan sat on the edge of the bed, handed the water glass to Shi Fei, his eyes full of expectation.

Looking at the man in front of her who was willing to go to great lengths for a glass of warm water, Shi Fei's nameless anger subsided somewhat.

She took the water glass, took a small sip, and found the water temperature to be just right. She then drank a few more mouthfuls, and the warm liquid flowed down her throat, relieving some of her discomfort.

"what time is it?"

“10:08.” Lu Zhiyan glanced at his phone and quickly replied.

"What! It's all your fault! We're going to be late!"

Shi Fei hurriedly threw off the covers, got up, and put on her clothes.

Today's schedule has two parts: a ribbon-cutting ceremony in the afternoon and cooperation talks in the evening.

I booked a flight for 11 o'clock.

If you miss the train, you'll have to wait another two hours for the next one. Although you might be able to catch it, time will be very tight, and any slight mistake could cause problems.

"There's still time. I applied for the private jet last night."

Shi Fei breathed a sigh of relief. "I'll go wash up. Go to the dressing room and pick out an outfit for me."

"Okay." Lu Zhiyan replied and turned to walk towards the dressing room.

Opening the door to the walk-in closet, clothes from various collections came into view. Standing there, I frowned slightly and began to think about what to wear.

One must be both capable and appropriate, and also exude elegance.

His gaze swept across the clothes rack, finally settling on a white silk shirt, the delicate pleats at the collar adding a touch of softness and elegance.

Paired with a bodycon skirt, the brown and black tones are understated yet sophisticated, complementing the overall look perfectly.

To make the overall look even more perfect, Lu Zhiyan also specially chose a pair of black high heels.

The delicate rhinestone embellishments on the shoe's upper are just right—not too flashy, yet they subtly sparkle.

When Shi Fei came out of the bathroom, Lu Zhiyan had already neatly placed the clothes she had chosen on the bed.

"See if you like it?"

"Not bad." Shi Fei nodded slightly, her tone not full of praise, but her eyes revealed her approval.

Lu Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Then I'll go wash up and I'll take you when you're ready."

After saying that, he turned and walked to the wardrobe, took out a set of his own clothes, and quickly went into the bathroom.

Shi Fei walked to the bedside and began to change her clothes.

The woman in the mirror instantly transformed into a capable and efficient career woman.

I sat down at the vanity, opened my makeup bag, and began to apply my makeup carefully.

Let's start with a makeup primer, lotion, and serum.

When Lu Zhiyan came out of the bathroom, he saw Shi Fei still sitting in front of the vanity, focused on applying her makeup.

He didn't make a sound to disturb her, but simply sat quietly on the sofa beside her and watched her.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Shi Fei, outlining her beautiful figure.

Lu Zhiyan's gaze was gentle and affectionate.

Shi Fei's technique was skillful; she applied the foundation evenly to her face, concealing the fatigue from staying up all night.

Eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara were applied in succession, making her eyes even brighter and more expressive.

Finally, a touch of bright red lipstick perfectly completed her makeup, making her look incredibly powerful.

Shi Fei stood up, straightened her clothes, and looked at Lu Zhiyan. "Alright, we can go now."

Lu Zhiyan got up and walked to a corner of the room, picked up Shi Fei's suitcase, and led Shi Fei to the elevator.

In the parking lot, I opened the trunk, put the suitcase inside, and then opened the car door for Shi Fei and fastened her seatbelt.

Lu Zhiyan walked around to the driver's side, got into the car, and had just fastened his seatbelt when Shi Fei became puzzled.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Her tone was tinged with anxiety.

"Wait a moment," Lu Zhiyan said, looking out the car window.

Xiao Che rushed over, carrying a bag in his hand.

Arriving at the car, Lu Zhiyan knocked on the window, lowered the window, and took the bag.

"Here's your breakfast, Mr. President," Xiao Che said simply.

Lu Zhiyan nodded, thanked him, and handed the bag to Shi Fei, saying, "Don't go hungry."

"You do have a conscience," Shi Fei said softly, her voice carrying a hint of tenderness.
