After one night of indulgence, the abstinent tycoon kissed her every night with his hand on her hip.

Ms. Zhou's words stunned Jiang Zhi for a moment. Jiang Zhi realized that she had found the source of Ling Jingyuan's domineering and straightforward nature. His mother was indeed very straightforward and enthusiastic, leaving her helpless every time.

Jiang Zhi was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered. She glared at Ling Jingyuan and spoke softly.

"Auntie, you can just call me Jiang Zhi."

"Auntie, you've misunderstood Ling Jingyuan. He's already helped me..."

Before Jiang Zhi could finish speaking, Ms. Zhou interrupted her and said earnestly, "Fine, if you don't like me calling you daughter-in-law, then I'll call you Jiang Zhi."

"Jiang Zhi, you don't need to take your boyfriend's side. Isn't it only natural for a boyfriend to protect his girlfriend?"

"In my opinion, he should have acquired that design institute, and then they would have dared to bully you like that again."

"You silly child, didn't Auntie tell you last time that if you have any problems or feel wronged, you should come to Auntie and Auntie will stand up for you?"

"Look how badly they've bullied you! They're only doing this because you're a young girl with no one to rely on, aren't they?"

"Jiang Zhi, how about your aunt buys that company and gives it to you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi hurriedly shook his head, saying, "That won't do."

"Auntie, no, really no need!"

"Ling Jingyuan has already taken care of it for me, Auntie, please don't worry, I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

After Jiang Zhi finished speaking, she hurriedly tugged at a man who seemed to be watching the show, her tone almost pleading. Ling Jingyuan looked at his girlfriend's rare little emotion, his eyes darkening slightly, a hint of dark fire flashing in them.

He couldn't help but kiss Jiang Zhi on the lips before taking the phone and speaking to Ms. Zhou on the other end in a deep voice.

"Mom, I've taken care of everything, so don't worry about it."

"I had thought about acquiring that design institute before, but since Jiang Zhi didn't agree, I gave up on it."

"Don't worry, your daughter-in-law has her own plans. Just support her quietly from behind. Is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up now."

After hearing this, Ms. Zhou thought about it and had no choice but to give up. However, she asked Ling Jingyuan to hand the phone to Jiang Zhi and told her a few words, telling her that if she ever had any difficulties or suffered any grievances in the future, she must come to her, and she would definitely support her and stand up for her.

Ms. Zhou talked excitedly for a long time until Jiang Zhi blushed and agreed, then she hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Jiang Zhi breathed a slight sigh of relief as she watched the phone being hung up. She really felt that she was hard to handle Ling's warm and sincere mother.

Sincere people always made her feel somewhat apologetic.

Jiang Zhi looked at Ling Jingyuan, wanting to say something, but before she could speak, her lips were kissed again. Ling Jingyuan picked Jiang Zhi up and carried her straight to her bedroom.

Now all he wants to do is love her properly.

"Honey, let's continue what we were doing."

Ling Jingyuan's sexy, thin lips pressed against Jiang Zhi's soft lips as he spoke softly. In just a few steps, the two entered Jiang Zhi's bedroom. Before Jiang Zhi could react, they both tumbled onto the large bed.

Jiang Zhi slightly raised her eyes and met Ling Jingyuan's dark, deep, and fiery eyes.

Ling Jingyuan bent down and placed his strong arms on Jiang Zhi's shoulders, tightly binding her between his arms.

"Sweetie, let's continue."

As soon as the man finished speaking, his burning lips sealed Jiang Zhi's lips, giving her no chance to refuse.

Jiang Zhi's initiative today had already made him extremely happy. Now was his time to please her.

Ling Jingyuan's kisses were sometimes gentle and sometimes domineering, his large hands roaming over Jiang Zhi's slender waist, teasing her senses.

He was too familiar with Jiang Zhi's body, and soon Jiang Zhi's face turned red and her body went slightly weak, becoming incredibly soft and delicate.

Seeing this, Ling Jingyuan's passionate kiss slowly moved down to Jiang Zhi's fair neck and continued downwards...

As their clothes scattered on the ground, the captivating and alluring prelude to their lovemaking continued.

When it was over, Ling Jingyuan carried Jiang Zhi to the bathroom, washed them both, and then carried her back to the bedroom.

"Sweetie, you rest for a bit while I heat up some food. Get up and eat in a bit."

Ling Jingyuan had actually prepared the meal long ago, but Jiang Zhi's initiative today made him lose control of himself.

Jiang Zhi blushed and nodded upon hearing this. Today, Ling Jingyuan seemed to be both out of control and yet still in control. He lost control because he had actually...

Thinking of the man's devout and earnest expression, Jiang Zhi blushed.

She was controlling because she discovered that Ling Jingyuan hadn't exhausted her to the point of fainting today; he only wanted to have sex with her three times.

This was impossible before. Whenever Ling Jingyuan encountered her, he would bully her severely and exhaust her until she fainted. Thinking of this, Jiang Zhi blushed and her stomach started to rumble.

She lay there for a while, her legs and back aching terribly. She calmed herself down, rested for a bit, and then got out of bed. As soon as she reached the living room, she saw Ling Jingyuan serving dishes.

"Girlfriend, come eat."

Jiang Zhi could tell from the dishes on the table that Ling Jingyuan had made them, and she sat down with a gentle look in her eyes.

That night, Ling Jingyuan stayed at Jiang Zhi's house, in her bed.

This time, however, he didn't pester her or bully her anymore. He knew she had to go to work the next day, so he pulled her into his arms and gently kissed Jiang Zhi's forehead.

Goodnight, Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi smiled gently at Ling Jingyuan, and soon fell into a deep sleep. Ling Jingyuan looked at the sleeping woman in his arms, his eyes deep, and he couldn't help but pull her closer to him before slowly closing his eyes.

……

The next day, Jiang Zhi received a meeting notification from Yaokun Group just before the end of the workday at the company.

Jiang Zhi didn't think much of it, figuring he was handing over his project to Yaokun Group with another team of designers. The project was about to enter the construction phase, so Jiang Zhi could take the opportunity to hand it over.

As soon as the two arrived at the Yaokun Group's conference room, they met Qin Man, the heiress of the Yaokun Group.

When Qin Man saw Jiang Zhi, a hint of jealousy instantly appeared on her face, which was full of technology and ruthlessness.

She found out about Ling Jingyuan and the young designer.

She never expected that a noble and outstanding man like Ling Jingyuan would fall for Jiang Zhi, an unknown little designer!

She swept her critical and sharp gaze over Jiang Zhi, her face filled with arrogance, disdain, and jealousy.

How could this woman compare to me? What makes her so special that she could win Ling Jingyuan's favor?

Ling Jingyuan was someone Qin Man had her eye on; what right did a mere designer like her have to compete with her?

Does she deserve to steal the man she's set her sights on?

Jiang Zhi was notified that today's meeting was to review the construction progress and confirm the installation method. She thought it was the client organizing the project's curtain wall company to coordinate with their lighting department, but she didn't expect Qin Man to be there as well.

"I didn't realize Designer Jiang had such a clever way of doing things!" Jiang Zhi and another designer had just sat down when they heard Qin Man's somewhat sarcastic voice.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi paused slightly, then seemed to realize something and smiled faintly as she spoke softly.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin, for recognizing my design abilities. May we begin, Mr. Qin?"

Just as Qin Man was about to speak, her gaze fell upon the figure being surrounded by a crowd in the corridor outside the door. Her eyes lit up, and she instantly abandoned everyone and walked out of the conference hall.

In the corridor.

The company's senior executives, all smiles, were about to lead Ling Jingyuan to the private room in the reception hall when he heard this. Ling Jingyuan smiled faintly, shook his head, and walked straight to the conference room where Jiang Zhi was.

His only task today was to pick up his girlfriend from get off work.
