Out of control and sinking

Bo Ye stood tall and straight in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Jiang Ruan couldn't contain her excitement as the person she had been longing for finally appeared before her.

Hearing the noise, Bo Ye had just turned his head when a blur of movement flashed past his eyes.

Before she could react, Jiang Ruan ran straight into his arms.

She rammed firmly into Bo Ye's chest, giving him a tight hug, and said, "You're finally back."

Her arms were tightly wrapped around his waist, and her sudden enthusiasm surprised Bo Ye, but it was also within his expectations.

A smile flickered in the man's eyes. He raised his arm, wrapped one hand around her waist, lightly licked his lips, and teased her as he looked down, "Tsk."

"Looks like you missed me a lot? You're so enthusiastic."

His tone was cheeky, and Jiang Ruan playfully punched his chest with her small fist, saying coquettishly, "Who missed you!"

She held him tightly, refusing to let go even for a moment.

She truly has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Bo Ye chuckled softly.

Hearing the man's laughter, Jiang Ruan looked up at Bo Ye: "And you, have you missed me since we haven't seen each other for two months?"

Bo Ye looked down at her, a smile playing on his lips, his breath tantalizing: "Guess."

Jiang Ruan's face instantly fell: "No way? I've been thinking about you every day for the past two months, and you haven't even thought about me... Ah..."

Before he could finish speaking, Bo Ye bent down, put his arm around her waist, picked her up, and turned to walk towards the bed.

Lying in his arms, Jiang Ruan heard him say, "I'll show you how much I miss you soon."

When Jiang Ruan returned, she already anticipated that tonight would not be a peaceful night.

But isn't this a bit too fast?
then.

Just as Jiang Ruan was placed on the bed, seeing that Bo Ye was about to press down on her, Jiang Ruan reached out and pushed against his chest, firmly refusing.

"Wait...wait...wait, wait..."

Bo Ye knelt on the bed, raising an eyebrow at her: "Hmm?"

He stopped moving, but his hands didn't stop; he loosened the tie around his neck and tossed it aside.

Her fingertips landed on the shirt buttons again.

Jiang Ruan watched him slowly and methodically unbutton his shirt, one button at a time. His half-exposed skin was both white and alluring, and she could vaguely see his abs.

She couldn't help but swallow.

Forcibly controlling oneself from being seduced by beauty.

Jiang Ruan reached out and grasped his hand, her dark eyes shining brightly: "Bo Ye, I still have a lot to say to you."

“It’s been two months since we last met. I want to have a good chat with you. Tell me, have you encountered anything strange or interesting while you were on your business trip?”

Bo Ye, single, threw off his shirt and leaned over to get closer.

Jiang Ruan was caught off guard and was easily kissed on the lips.

His lips were slightly cold and carried a strong nicotine scent; he must have smoked before she returned.

This aroma is very special; it has a subtle tea fragrance.

Jiang Ruan had kissed his lips that had been smoking various tobaccos and cigars, but tonight was clearly a little different.

After a lingering kiss, Jiang Ruan's cheeks were flushed. She heard Bo Ye say, "If you have anything to say, say it slowly after we're done."

Jiang Ruan, panting, pouted, "I'll be too tired to talk about it by then. I want to talk about it now, okay, Bo Ye?"

Bo Ye smiled and refused, "No."

"Don't worry, I'll save some energy for you to say."

As he spoke, Bo Ye lowered his head and kissed her ear, coaxing, "Good girl."

So Jiang Ruan was persuaded by him.

"OK then."

A sly smile flashed across Bo Ye's eyes as he asked Jiang Ruan in his arms, "Did you get a new cigar?"

"This tastes different from the ones I've had before."

Bo Ye replied, "Mm."

"I bought this while on a business trip. I think it's pretty good. Do you like it?"

"If you don't like it, I'll change it..."

Jiang Ruan interrupted him: "I like it."

She wrapped her arms around his neck and said with a smile, "It feels a bit like fresh green tea; even kissing you is refreshing."

Upon hearing this, some unpleasant images flashed through Bo Ye's mind. A wicked smile appeared on his lips as he leaned down and whispered in her ear.

They exchanged a few words.

xxoo.

Jiang Ruan's cheeks flushed bright red instantly, and she punched him in the chest: "Shameless!"

"I don't want to!"

Bo Ye cleared his throat, realizing he was being a bit shameless, but still tried to persuade him: "We can give it a try."

"Consider it unlocking a new project."

"I think the experience will be great."

Jiang Ruan's face was burning: "Shut up!"

"Let me tell you, don't even think about it. There's absolutely no way I'd do it!"

Because it really is...

This is too much to bear...

Seeing her resistance, Bo Ye stopped trying to persuade her, but the idea had already taken root in his mind.

Then he will definitely achieve it under certain appropriate conditions.

Bo Ye took Jiang Ruan's hand and placed it on his belt. He looked at her with a smile in his dark eyes and coaxed her softly, "Baby, undo it."

Jiang Ruan blushed and bit her lip: "I can't see it."

"Why don't you lie down over there? I'll help you untie it."

"No need," Bo Ye chuckled and said, "I'll help you untie it."

Jiang Ruan was speechless: "Then why don't you just untie it?"

"That won't work."

Bo Ye said earnestly, "The experience is different."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

So, Bo Ye took Jiang Ruan's hands and unbuckled her belt.

But with two hands in between, and Jiang Ruan unable to see, it's impossible to be absolutely sensitive when touching with bare hands.

So, without realizing it, Jiang Ruan's hand went astray.

"Ah!" she screamed, her face turning bright red all the way down to her neck.

Bo Ye's breathing became heavy, his eyes filled with desire, and his voice was hoarse: "Tsk, so impatient, huh?"

Jiang Ruan tried several times but couldn't untangle it. Hearing his words, she blushed and glared at him: "Who's in such a hurry?"

"You're clearly just messing with me on purpose. I'm not solving it anymore, you solve it yourself."

Just as Jiang Ruan was about to withdraw her hand, Bo Ye quickly grabbed it and pressed it into the belt buckle. With a "click," the belt opened.

Bo Ye smiled and praised, "My darling is so great."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

It was past 2 a.m. when we finished.

This time, Bo Ye didn't really torture her to death, keeping his promise and leaving Jiang Ruan with a chance to breathe.

Lying in Bo Ye's arms, Jiang Ruan touched the Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist, warming them from their coldness.

The two talked about many topics.

Bo Ye had his eyes closed, but he wasn't asleep. No matter what she asked, he answered patiently.

However, he was very frugal in his words.

They are incredibly economical with words.

Jiang Ruan suddenly remembered something and patted his chest: "By the way, I have a question for you."

Caught off guard by the sudden slap, Bo Ye opened his eyes, thinking something serious had happened.

"Ah."

Jiang Ruan: "At the beginning of the month, Bazaar Times suddenly asked me to shoot a cover ad. This has nothing to do with you, right?"

"You didn't find me this connection, did you?" Bo Ye replied without hesitation, "No."

The man's voice was extremely calm: "Now that you're fully capable, you don't need me to pull strings for you or get you advertising deals anymore. You basically have all the resources available in China that are considered top-tier, except for certain roles like Best Actress awards."

"You need to believe in your own abilities. If they come to you on their own initiative, that's your ability, it has nothing to do with me."

Jiang Ruan smiled and stuck out her tongue: "I was just wondering if you secretly gave me preferential treatment again, otherwise why would the editor-in-chief of Bazaar Times approach me, even though there are so many award-winning actors and actresses."

"However, I am still very confident. So what if I am a Best Actress or Best Actor? Sooner or later, I will also win that honor through my own efforts."

Jiang Ruan made no attempt to hide her ambition.

Becoming an idol star or actress was never her dream.

Her dream is to become a world-famous actress and a top star in the international entertainment industry.

Upon hearing this, pride shone in Bo Ye's dark eyes. He raised his hand and ruffled her hair: "You have ambition."

"come on."

His encouragement was undoubtedly her greatest motivation to move forward.

"You still haven't told me if you've encountered anything strange or fun in the past two months." Jiang Ruan nestled against his chest, skin to skin, gazing at him expectantly.

Bo Ye: "No."

The only strange and interesting thing is that even though he was very tired after a long day of work, he still couldn't help but come back in the middle of the night to see someone sleeping soundly.

Bo Ye couldn't help but laugh whenever he thought about it.

He tugged at the corner of his lips, but dared not make the smile too wide for fear she would notice.

Jiang Ruan was dissatisfied: "Ah."

"So you're busy with work every day? Doesn't that mean you're working the whole time you're awake and asleep?"

Bo Ye paused for a moment, then said, "Yes."

"Okay, you've worked too hard." Jiang Ruan felt sorry for him and raised her hand to massage his temples to help him relax. "You should take a good rest after you come back. After all, your health is the most important thing. Tomorrow is the weekend, so why don't you take a break for yourself?"

Bo Ye opened his eyes and took her hand: "No need."

"I am not tired."

"Go to sleep, sweetie."

Jiang Ruan, however, was not sleepy at all: "I can't sleep right now."

Upon hearing this, a dangerous glint flashed in Bo Ye's eyes. He tightened his arms around her slender waist instantly, lowered his head to her ear, and breathed hot air into her ear: "How about we do it a few more times?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ruan's expression changed immediately. Without saying a word, she pushed him away and lay down: "No, I'm sleepy, I want to sleep!"

Then I closed my eyes.

They change their minds faster than turning the pages of a book!
Bo Ye laughed in exasperation, but didn't make things difficult for her.

Soon, Jiang Ruan really fell asleep.

Holding her in his arms and listening to her deep, even breathing, Bo Ye found himself unable to sleep.

Looking down at her dark eyelashes under the night light, I saw how thick and dark they were, casting a fan-like shadow on her eyes.

Below that is her pert nose, and then her soft, pink lips.

Gazing at her sleeping face, Bo Ye found himself lost in thought.

I just feel that this is probably what a peaceful and serene life is all about.

His breath was filled with her unique scent, like a hypnotic drug.

During this period, Bo Ye's sleep quality was extremely poor.

I only get a maximum of four hours of sleep a day.

Then the second day of intense work began.

But he didn't feel tired at all.

At this moment, with all his fatigue gone, he realized what true relaxation felt like.

A few minutes later, two intertwined breaths rose and fell.

Jiang Ruan slept exceptionally soundly in the early morning, not waking up at all throughout the night.

When I opened my eyes, it was already daylight outside the window.

But Jiang Ruan was still lying in the man's warm embrace. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened them, only to meet the man's dark and deep eyes.

Jiang Ruan blinked: "When did you wake up?"

Bo Ye's voice was a little hoarse: "Just now."

It has a hissing, hoarse sound, like a subwoofer.

An inexplicable desire.

"Oh." Jiang Ruan yawned lazily. "What time is it? It's the weekend, are you going to work?"

Bo Ye replied, "It's only 8:30, it's still early."

"I'll lie here with you for a while longer."

Um???
Doesn't he usually get up before eight o'clock?

We work 24/7, including weekends and weekdays.

Jiang Ruan sighed, feeling a little sorry for him: "It seems that being a big boss isn't so easy. Why don't you take a break and rest at home today?"

“No.” Bo Ye said in a deep voice, “The company is working on a new project recently, and I’m not the only one working here.”

The meaning is obvious.

As the boss, he had to set an example by leading his employees to work overtime.

Jiang Ruan knew he was a workaholic, so she didn't stop him: "Okay, okay, anyway, you should take care of your health and not work too hard."

Hearing her words of concern, Bo Ye smiled and said, "Mm."

"It's the weekend today, what are your plans?"

Jiang Ruan thought for a moment and said, "I'll sleep a little longer and then get up to go to the gym. I plan to have a vocal lesson this afternoon. Sister Qin said that a new variety show about music is about to start filming, and she wants me to go and warm up the audience."

"I happen to lack experience in this area, so I'll treat it as a learning opportunity."

"Anyway, all I can sing are love songs. Love songs are easy to sing, but I can't sing any sad love songs at all."

Bo Ye licked his lips: "You're quite busy."

What love songs can you sing?

He hasn't heard her sing yet.

“There are many,” Jiang Ruan said, counting them off: “Like Jay Chou, Landy Wen, and Cyndi Wang, I like many singers.”

I've never heard of Bo Ye.

He chuckled softly, "I'm not very interested in domestic singers."

"Really?" Jiang Ruan asked curiously, "Then what kind of music do you usually listen to?"

Bo Ye said, "I like instrumental music."

"Or there are more guqin (Chinese zither) pieces and piano pieces."

With such a comparison, it's truly a case of "no comparison, no harm."

Jiang Ruan snorted: "To each their own, anyway, I can't stand those dry piano pieces at all."

Nothing sounds as good as a love song.

Those who heard it felt a warm glow inside.

Bo Ye knew that the two had completely opposite interests, so he just smiled and didn't say anything, but patted her head with his palm: "Sing it for me another day."

"Or I can go to the live show and hear you sing."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruan's eyes lit up: "Going to the scene?"

"You have time."

Bo Ye: "Work is never-ending."

"I can spare the time, but it's not certain yet, since my job is quite special and I might have to travel for work at any time."

"Oh," Jiang Ruan said, "Then we'll talk about it later."

She looked up at him excitedly and said seriously, "If you were there, I think I would be a little nervous."

Bo Ye lowered his head and buried his face in her neck: "What are you nervous about?"

Jiang Ruan bit her lip: "I don't know."

"So, does that mean my going will affect your performance?" Bo Ye raised his eyes, looking at her with a playful expression, and then slowly said, "Fine, then I won't go."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruan became anxious again: "No."

"You've already promised to go! A gentleman's word is his bond; you can't go back on your word!" (End of Chapter)
