Song Wanwan stood up from the floor, clutching the blanket, and pointed at Gu Tingzhou on the bed, trembling as she said, "You... how did you end up sleeping in my bed?"

Gu Tingzhou merely glanced at the panicked Song Wanwan, then sat up from the bed and rubbed his temples.

With a voice that was dry and hoarse from just waking up, he said, "This bed is half mine, so why can't I sleep in it?"

Song Wanwan said loudly, "I've paid the other half of the money, now get down here."

Gu Tingzhou, with a naturally aloof and detached air about him, said indifferently, "I didn't do anything to you, so don't act like some virtuous and chaste woman."

what?

Song Wanwan was a little angry and surprised, not knowing what to say.

She threw off the blanket, jumped onto the bed, and shoved Gu Tingzhou, trying to push him off the bed.

The difference in strength between men and women was obvious, and Gu Tingzhou remained seated without moving.

He slowly raised his wrist and extended it towards Song Wanwan, "If you want to calculate the money, tell me how you're going to compensate for this first?"

On the man's wrist, clear teeth marks were left on his fair skin, and the red, swollen, and blackened appearance was somewhat shocking.

Upon hearing this, Song Wanwan's eyes widened in shock, and she was practically shoving an egg into her mouth.

When did Gu Tingzhou become so petty?

Song Wanwan's eyes flashed, and she retorted, "It was clearly you who grabbed my arm last night and wouldn't let me leave, so I bit you."

Gu Tingzhou's dark and deep gaze fell on her face, containing a hint of mockery, "I pulled you, you could have shaken off, why did you bite me? Are you sure you didn't mean to hurt me?"

Song Wanwan hadn't expected Gu Tingzhou to be so unreasonable after regaining his senses; he was simply being nonsensical.

I should have bitten his neck last night, bitten him to death, and ended it all.

Her eyes changed from clear and bright to dark and deep, with a faint hint of red.

With a furrowed brow and a hint of impatience, he said in a low voice, "Gu Tingzhou, were you pretending to be drunk last night?"

Instead of answering, Gu Tingzhou asked, "What do you think?"

Song Wanwan had really overestimated him, and said angrily, "Despicable!"

A disdainful smile curled at the corner of his lips. "How do you want to compensate me? If you go too far, bite me and I'll give it back to you."

Gu Tingzhou lowered his eyes and chuckled softly. He lifted his eyelids, his dark and deep gaze meeting the woman's beautiful, shimmering eyes. His voice was low, husky, and slow, "If a dog bites you, are you going to bite it back? Aren't you afraid of getting a mouthful of fur?"

Song Wanwan looked up at him, her eyes blazing with fury. "What exactly do you want?"

Gu Tingzhou's thin lips slowly curved upwards, a low, hoarse laugh escaping his throat, his eyes as dark as ink. "Since you bit me, you'll take care of me until I'm healed. That's fair, I won't make things difficult for you!"

Song Wanwan looked at him in disbelief. After all that time and so much talk, this was all the terms?

She touched the roof of her mouth with the tip of her tongue, and after three seconds, she slowly said, "Okay!"

After washing up and changing her clothes, Song Wanwan went downstairs to the living room to get her first-aid kit and brought it up.

She frowned, picked up cotton swabs and alcohol, and began to treat Gu Tingzhou's wounds.

The bite wound has already started to scab over. Just disinfect it and apply some anti-inflammatory ointment.

The alcohol stung a little when applied to the broken skin. Gu Tingzhou frowned slightly but remained silent.

Song Wanwan reduced the pressure a little.

After applying anti-inflammatory ointment to his wrist, Song Wanwan prepared to pack up her things and wash her hands.

Gu Tingzhou was somewhat displeased with Song Wanwan's perfunctory attitude.

"Help me change my clothes, the ointment will get on them."

Song Wanwan held back her anger and said calmly, "Just wait until it absorbs it before you put on your clothes."

"No, I'm in a hurry."

Song Wanwan rolled her eyes; Gu Tingzhou was already testing the limits of her patience.

She picked up a piece of gauze from the medicine box, cut a small section with scissors, grabbed Gu Tingzhou's wrist, wrapped it around his wrist, and taped the end with medical tape.

"Okay, now we won't bump into each other."

She was very close to him, her slender waist slightly bent, a few strands of hair brushing against his arm, and the sweet scent of her body filled Gu Tingzhou's nostrils.

At this moment, her skin was fair and radiant, so delicate that even the fine downy hairs were clearly visible.

This quiet and beautiful Song Wanwan is completely different from the resolute Song Wanwan from last night. This is the Song Wanwan he knows.

The anxiety and unease I felt last night have been relieved and vanished at this moment.

He was simply used to Song Wanwan's obedience and docility; he didn't want to see her rebellious and uncontrollable side for even a moment longer.

Strangely, Gu Tingzhou's heart stirred, and he reached out to pull Song Wanwan into his arms, wanting to feel her reality.

"what are you doing!"

Gu Tingzhou merely raised his arm, not yet retracting it.

Song Wanwan instinctively struggled to back away, glaring at him angrily.

Gu Tingzhou came to his senses and was somewhat annoyed at himself for having such thoughts. He said coldly, "It's just applying some medicine. Don't always try to seduce me."

"ill."

Song Wanwan rolled her eyes, angrily threw down the tape in her hand, and turned to leave the room.

******

Song Wanwan drove to Rongli Capital. There was a departmental meeting this morning, chaired by Jian Xuyan, which was mainly a progress report meeting between various groups.

Rongli Capital's investment department has three groups. The usual small meetings are chaired by Jian Xuyan, the investment manager, while the large meetings are chaired by the marketing director, together with the sales department, investment department, and finance department.

Song Wanwan entered the meeting room with her laptop, where colleagues were already gradually taking their seats.

Aside from her four group members, she was meeting all the other group leaders and members for the first time. Faced with scrutinizing or unfriendly glances, Song Wanwan responded with a polite smile, not wanting to cause any trouble.

Before Song Wanwan entered the workforce, she would hear Bai Li complain about the backstabbing and infighting in the office. She would always just laugh it off, feeling that it was far removed from her own life.

From the first day she joined Rongli Capital, she received attention from the entire company. Although she didn't want to care, she neither caused trouble nor was afraid of trouble, but she didn't want to spend all her energy on such internally destructive matters.

After a while, everyone arrived, and Jian Xuyan began the meeting.

"Before the meeting officially begins, I would like to introduce Song Wanwan, the leader of Group 3. Please welcome her."

Amidst applause, Song Wanwan stood up from her seat, flashing a polite, formulaic smile. "Hello everyone, I'm Song Wanwan. I hope we can have a happy and enjoyable time together in the future!"

After Song Wanwan finished her introduction, a man in a suit, who looked to be in his thirties, saw Song Wanwan and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He then smiled and said, "Team Leader Song, hello! I am Zhang Peng, the team leader of Group One. I am very happy to become your colleague. Let's help each other in the future."

After speaking, he extended his hand, and out of politeness, Song Wanwan also extended her hand and quickly shook hands with him.

Although Zhang Peng was good-looking, Song Wanwan didn't like him much and just gave him a perfunctory smile and bowed her head.

At this moment, a tall, aloof woman sitting in a seat raised her beautiful eyes slightly and said expressionlessly, "I heard that Team Leader Song closed a big deal as soon as she arrived. I wonder if she benefited from the influence of the former Team Leader of Group Three. She's really lucky."

Upon hearing this, Song Wanwan looked at Jian Xuyan with a puzzled expression. What did this mean?
