The villainous simp ignores the plot and mercilessly torments the female lead to tears.

The butler suddenly realized what was going on, and his eyes were full of relief and surprise as he looked at Qin Yan.

Although he had long known that his young master was very intelligent, he had always thought that he was young and inexperienced in handling affairs, which could be seen from his attitude towards Liu Xinyao.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, she became so outstanding.

The butler felt a surge of power coursing through him and said, "Young Master, please rest assured, I will definitely handle things well. By the way, Young Master, should we invite a few more media outlets over?"

Qin Yan said, "Of course we need to. Go ahead, the bigger the commotion this causes, the better."

After the butler left, Qin Yan didn't waste any time and went straight to find Xiao Ruyi.

He arrived at Xiao Ruyi's room without knocking and simply pushed the door open and went in.

Inside the room, Xiao Ruyi was changing her clothes. When she saw Qin Yan enter, she cried out in surprise and hurriedly covered herself with her clothes.

Although the two had slept together many times at night, her face was still flushed, and she asked softly:

"Young Master Qin, what brings you here?"

Qin Yan coughed lightly, then turned around and said, "I've come to ask you to come with me to take some photos."

"A photo shoot?" Xiao Ruyi was a little confused: "What kind of photo shoot?"

Qin Yan took a deep breath and said, "It's a couple's photoshoot. I'm going to announce to other people that you're my girlfriend."

"what?"

Xiao Ruyi was stunned upon hearing this, nearly dropping the clothes she was holding. She looked at Qin Yan in disbelief, "Young Master Qin, you...you're serious? You...you didn't say I...I was yours to play with..."

Xiao Ruyi dared not use the full term "plaything" because she herself found it difficult to accept this identity.

Qin Yan looked at the door and said, "At first, I was very angry because of Xiao Fan, so I took my anger out on you. But I've calmed down these past two days, and I know this has nothing to do with you."

"But time cannot be turned back. Since this relationship has occurred between us, I will not shirk my responsibility. Today, I, Qin Yan, will announce to the whole world that you, Xiao Ruyi, are my girlfriend."

When he said this, Qin Yan didn't blush or skip a beat; in any case, he wasn't telling the truth.

However, Xiao Ruyi took it seriously, and tears welled up in her eyes with excitement.

Over the past few days, with Qinglan constantly "brainwashing" her, she firmly believes that Qin Yan is a simple, devoted, and slightly domineering man.

This kind of person is the most attractive to a young girl like Xiao Ruyi.

Furthermore, since they had already had that kind of relationship, Xiao Ruyi quickly fell for Qin Yan.

However, she also knew her place in Qin Yan's heart: she was nothing more than a plaything.

She was very sad and upset about this.

But who would have thought that the surprise would come so quickly? Qin Yan actually wanted her to be his girlfriend, and he even wanted to announce it to everyone.

This overwhelming happiness almost made her faint.

At this moment, Qinglan stepped forward and said, "Miss Xiao, congratulations! I knew my young master was the most affectionate. He will definitely not let you down."

With tears of happiness on her face, Xiao Ruyi nodded: "Thank you, Sister Qinglan."

Qinglan smiled slightly: "Don't cry, Miss Xiao. We're having a photoshoot today, so we have to show our best selves."

Xiao Ruyi smiled and said, "Okay, Aunt Lan."

After Xiao Ruyi finished dressing, Qin Yan walked to her side and extended his arm.

Xiao Ruyi didn't quite understand what this meant, so she reached out and took Qin Yan's hand in a daze.

Qinglan stepped forward and said, "Miss Xiao, it's not like that."

Then she pulled Xiao Ruyi and made her hold Qin Yan's arm.

After Xiao Ruyi hugged him, she glanced timidly at Qin Yan and noticed a faint smile on his face, with a hint of doting in his eyes.
