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

Lin Li touched her burning face. Thinking about what Zhou Siye had said earlier, her mind uncontrollably drifted back to the past.

That was before, every time the man came to her place and held her tightly in his arms in the dark night, he would say that sentence when he saw the nightgown she was wearing.

Every time she finished speaking, her pajamas would be torn and thrown aside by the man.

This phrase later became almost a code word between the two.

Just now, that man said it so calmly and naturally.

Lin Li let out a deep breath. As expected, she still didn't have Zhou Siye's strong mental fortitude; to put it bluntly, she wasn't as thick-skinned as him.

Lin Li touched her burning face, threw herself into the soft cup, and tried to forget the erotic images that came to mind because of the man's words.

She didn't want to be influenced by this man.

Lin Li took a deep breath, turned off the light, and gradually calmed down before falling into a deep sleep.

the other side.

In Zhou Siye's house, in the bedroom.

As Zhou Siye hung up his phone, his breathing became heavier than usual in the dimly lit room with only a small light on.

The black spaghetti strap nightgown Lin Li was wearing just now instantly reminded him of many things from his past with her, those nights when the two of them were intimately entwined together.

That pajama set was so familiar.

"Lin Li".

Zhou Siye realized that he was slowly losing control of himself, and he didn't know how much longer he could hold on.

The desire to miss, embrace, and possess Lin Li grew stronger and stronger.

His eyes were fixed on the window, gazing at the dazzling night view. Something seemed to flash quickly across his dark eyes.

"Lin Li".

In the dimly lit room, the man's voice grew lower and his breathing became heavier.

After a long while, it slowly ended with a muffled groan from the man.

Zhou Siye got up and went into the bathroom with a dark look in his eyes.

That night, neither Zhou Siye nor Lin Li slept soundly.

They both dreamed all night long. In each other's dreams, there was always the other person.

Jiang Zhi didn't know how long she had slept. As soon as she opened her eyes, she found the man beside her playing with her hair with a smile on his face.

The man turned to the side, his strikingly handsome face staring directly at her.

Ling Jingyuan was shirtless, his light tan skin still bearing the marks he had left the night before. Jiang Zhi blushed slightly as she looked at her handiwork; she had indeed been a bit wild last night.

There were many marks on the man's neck, not to mention his body.

It's all because of that nightgown she wore yesterday; she shouldn't have worn it.

"Good morning, Jiang Zhi."

Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but smile slightly as he looked at Jiang Zhi's adorable expression. He tightened his grip on Jiang Zhi's arm, pulling her even closer to him.

Jiang Zhi paused for a moment, then spoke softly, "Good morning."

As soon as she spoke, she was startled by her own voice, wondering why it sounded so hoarse.

Ling Jingyuan's smile widened upon hearing this; he had absolutely adored Jiang Zhi's voice last night.

That was her voice, blooming for him, and he loved it. Every note captivated his heart, making his soul soar in joy.

"It's okay, you'll feel better after a rest."

Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but kiss Jiang Zhi on the lips, then looked at her with a smile in his eyes.

"I've arranged to meet up with Fu Libai and Zhou Siye this afternoon."

"Shen Yutong and Lin Li will probably be there too. Do you want to rest a little longer or get up?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi struggled to get up; of course, she wanted to go out.

If she stayed at home any longer, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get out of bed all day.

"What time is it? I need to get up. Aren't we going out this afternoon? Let me get ready."

Upon hearing this, Ling Jingyuan looked at Jiang Zhi, who had sat up, and his gaze fell on her smooth back. Last night, he had carried her to the bathroom and changed her into a nightgown.

At this moment, a large expanse of white skin was exposed on the woman's back, where traces of what he had left the previous night still remained.

Ling Jingyuan went a bit crazy last night, leaving many marks on Jiang Zhi's body.

Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her back, the burning kiss instantly making her shoulder blades feel hot.

"Ling Jingyuan, stop fooling around."

Jiang Zhi didn't want to stay in bed with the man any longer, otherwise she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get out later.

Ling Jingyuan chuckled softly upon hearing this, and his burning kisses slowly traveled down Jiang Zhi's shoulder blades to her slender neck before pulling her tightly into his arms.

"Give me a hug for one minute."

Jiang Zhi felt the man's warm, familiar, and reassuring embrace without moving, simply letting him hold her quietly.

Sunlight streamed into the room, filling the cozy space on the large bed.

The two embraced quietly, and even though they didn't say a word, sweetness flowed between them.

A minute later, Ling Jingyuan gently released Jiang Zhi.

"Okay, go wash up, I'll heat up the food."

Yes, our little snail boy, Mr. Ling, has already prepared the meal and is just waiting for Jiang Zhi to wake up.

Jiang Zhi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then she smiled and looked at Ling Jingyuan, unable to resist kissing him on the lips.

Upon seeing this, Ling Jingyuan's eyes darkened and his voice became somewhat hoarse, "Jiang Zhi, don't seduce me."

Otherwise, he couldn't guarantee that the two of them would be able to go out today.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi blushed, her beautiful eyes first showing surprise and then a hint of shyness. She couldn't help but give Ling Jingyuan a coquettish glare before quickly getting out of bed and running into the bathroom like a rabbit.

Seeing this, Ling Jingyuan chuckled softly, got up, casually put on a bathrobe, and left the bedroom to enter the kitchen.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, my phone rang.

As soon as Ling Jingyuan answered the phone, he heard Ms. Zhou's loud voice on the other end: "Son, happy 30th birthday!"

Ling Jingyuan: ...

She's truly my mother.

There's absolutely no need to remind him that he's thirty years old this year.

"Mom, thank you. You worked so hard thirty years ago."

Ling Jingyuan's voice was deep and earnest. He thanked his mother for bringing him into the world thirty years ago, giving him the opportunity to meet Jiang Zhi.

He learned from his father that his mother had suffered a lot to conceive him, and he was very grateful.

Ms. Zhou was silent for a moment upon hearing this, then spoke softly with a hint of gentleness in her voice: "You brat, don't give me that."

"When are you going to get married and have a sweet, soft, and beautiful baby for your mom to take care of? That would be the real deal."

At this point, Ms. Zhou couldn't help but get a little anxious: "Don't forget, you're thirty years old starting today. A man over thirty is considered an old man..."

Ling Jingyuan: ...

What old man!

So what if I'm thirty!

He's not old at all! He's still young!

"Mom, I understand. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"By the way, I'm not going back to the old house today. I'll go back in a few days. I have plans with Li Bai and Si Ye this afternoon."

Ms. Zhou nodded upon hearing this, "Okay, I understand."

"Perfect timing. Your dad and I are going abroad for a while tomorrow. You can come over when we get back."

"Remember what I just said, you need to hurry up and pay more attention to your relationship with Xiao Jiangzhi."

At this point, Ms. Zhou couldn't help but launch into another long explanation.

Ling Jingyuan hung up the phone with a hint of helplessness, glanced at the direction of the bathroom, and smiled faintly.

What's the use of him being anxious!

He wished he could take her home right now, but he needed Jiang Zhi's consent.

Thinking of the tenderness in Jiang Zhiling Jingyuan's eyes, a cunning glint flashed in his dark eyes.

He really got a great deal last night.

Taking advantage of the fact that Jiang Zhi thought it was his birthday, he coaxed her into wearing that nightgown, thus getting himself a free ride.

Thinking of the sweetness of last night, Ling Jingyuan's sexy Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

It's damn delicious.

I want more!

After a simple meal, Ling Jingyuan tidied up and drove Jiang Zhi out.

Half an hour later, the two stopped in front of Fu Libai's club.

When Jiang Zhi arrived at the private room, she found her friends Shen Yutong and Lin Li already there. Upon seeing Jiang Zhi, Shen Yutong immediately pulled her aside and whispered, "Sister Zhi, my information was wrong."

Jiang Zhi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and looked at her friend with some confusion, "Huh? Yutong, what do you mean?"

Seeing her friend's bewildered expression, Shen Yutong couldn't help but say, "Zhibao, yesterday wasn't Ling Jingyuan's birthday, today is."

Jiang Zhi: ...

Shen Yutong explained what she had learned from Fu Libai about Ling Jingyuan's birthday, which stunned Jiang Zhizhen.

So, last night, Ling Jingyuan deliberately lied to her?
