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

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi looked at Ling Jingyuan with gentle eyes and nodded lightly.

She believed him.

The two hugged for a while, then Jiang Zhi got up and started washing up.

After tidying up, the two went to the restaurant for dinner. The meal was cooked by Ling Jingyuan, and as always, it was delicious and visually appealing.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Zhi went to wash the dishes.

After cleaning themselves, the two went to the living room.

Ling Jingyuan held Jiang Zhi on his lap, lifting a strand of her hair and playing with it.

"You're on holiday, what are your plans?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi looked into Ling Jingyuan's deep eyes and said gently, "No plans. Just rest at home for a few days and do some cleaning."

She paused at this point.

She also wants to go to the cemetery to visit her mother and grandparents.

Ling Jingyuan nodded slightly at Jiang Zhi's plan, "Okay, I'll follow your arrangements."

Jiang Zhi: "Well, I'll head back in a bit. I want to get home early and tidy things up."

Most importantly, she was still thinking about what gifts she should prepare for the Ling family's New Year celebration this year.

"it is good."

This time, Ling Jingyuan didn't stop Jiang Zhi from going back. It wasn't until Jiang Zhi looked at the man sitting upright on her sofa and didn't leave that she understood his plan.

She couldn't help but find it amusing, and looking at Ling Jingyuan's somewhat shameless expression, she laughed and said, "Are you planning to stay here and not leave?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jingyuan made no attempt to conceal his intentions and readily nodded in agreement.

He's been busy all year, so what's wrong with finally getting a break to spend time with his wife?

That shouldn't be happening!

Seeing this, Jiang Zhi had no choice but to let Ling Jingyuan stay.

She always seemed to be soft-hearted towards him.

The two rarely had time to spend together, as they were both busy before, especially Jiang Zhi, who devoted most of her energy to her work since opening her own studio.

During the day, I'm either at the company or on a business trip to the client's place. At night, I'm either working overtime at the company or testing lights at the construction site.

It's pitiful that she has so little time to give her boyfriend.

However, Ling Jingyuan had no complaints whatsoever, because she was Jiang Zhi and he accepted and loved every aspect of her.

Therefore, he would go to the company to accompany her when she worked overtime, and he would silently stay by her side when she was testing the lights at the construction site at night.

He understands and respects her, witnesses her growth, and progresses alongside her.

His ginger is the best ginger.

Jiangzhi Company gave employees an early holiday, but Zhou's Group did not.

Therefore, assistant Li Rui looked at the empty office chair in his office and understood perfectly.

In the end, he shouldered everything, running between the company's future boss's wife and home every day. Finally, after signing the contract that day, Ling Jingyuan looked at the exhausted Li Rui and spoke in a deep voice.

"The group's performance has been good this year, thank you all for your hard work. The group will give everyone a raise."

Upon hearing this, Li Rui's fatigue vanished, and he immediately felt that he could run for a few more days.

He's not tired at all, because he's been given so much.

A few days later, the company gave everyone a holiday, and Ling Jingyuan was truly free.

That day, he accompanied Jiang Zhi to the mall.

I caught a glimpse of someone approaching; it was Gu Shen and his wife walking towards me.

Ling Jingyuan saw that the man's dark eyes were full of scrutiny and disdain, and Gu Shen also clearly saw Jiang Zhi and Ling Jingyuan.

Gu Shen glanced at Jiang Zhi unconsciously, opened his mouth, but ultimately shut it under Ling Jingyuan's cold and icy gaze, pretending to walk away casually.

Ling Jingyuan snorted coldly, his eyes filled with danger.

Jiang Zhi also saw Gu Shen, but her emotions didn't change much; she seemed to glance at him briefly before slowly looking away. It was as if she were looking at a complete stranger without any apparent emotion.

Jiang Zhi sensed the growing chill emanating from Ling Jingyuan and couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.

What is this person jealous of now?

"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhi asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Ling Jingyuan looked deeply into Jiang Zhi's dark eyes, his voice carrying a hint of cunning, "Jiang Zhi, hug me."

Jiang Zhi: ...

"Jiang Zhi, I want to kiss you."

Jiang Zhi: ...

She decided to hug him anyway. Jiang Zhi smiled, shook her head, and gently embraced Ling Jingyuan. She knew why Ling Jingyuan was acting this way.

She leaned against Ling Jingyuan's chest, gently raised her head, and looked at him with tender yet earnest eyes.

"Ling Jingyuan, no one can compare to you."

If Ling Jingyuan had a tail at this moment, it would definitely be sticking up.

Jiang Zhi's simple words kept Ling Jingyuan's smile from that moment on.

On the other side, Liu Sisi was engrossed in her phone and didn't see Jiang Zhi and Ling Jingyuan. When she looked up and saw her husband staring into the distance, seemingly lost in thought, she couldn't help but frown.

"Gu Shen, what are you staring at so intently?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shen paused slightly, quickly averting his gaze to hide the dark look in his eyes. "It's nothing, let's go."

Seeing this, Liu Sisi didn't think much of it and left with the person in her arms.

Gu Shen's heart was filled with complex emotions; he had ultimately missed out on Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi and Ling Jingyuan strolled around for a while, bought some things, and drove back to Jiang Zhi's house.

The two worked together to fill the refrigerator before heading to the living room.

On the sofa, Ling Jingyuan looked at Jiang Zhi with gentle eyes, "Jiang Zhi."

Jiang Zhi was drinking tea when she looked up slightly and hummed in response.

"Could you take me to see your aunt?"

He wanted to see his mother-in-law and tell her that Jiang Zhi was doing well and was happy, that she was no longer alone, and that he would always be by her side.

Jiang Zhi didn't expect Ling Jingyuan to make this request. Originally, she planned to wait for Ling Jingyuan to return in the next couple of days so she could go and sweep the graves of her mother and maternal grandparents herself.

After all, it's the Lunar New Year, and some people will have these taboos.

But those were her family, her beloved family, who were still with her even after turning into stars. She really missed them.

"Jiang Zhi, is this alright?"

Seeing that Jiang Zhi remained silent, Ling Jingyuan looked at her intently and spoke again.

Looking at the seriousness in Ling Jingyuan's eyes and her own reflection, Jiang Zhi felt a surge of courage.

"Okay, sure."

Ling Jingyuan is such a good person; she should let them see that and tell them not to worry, that someone is there for her and loves her.

She is very happy.

the next day.

Ling Jingyuan then urged Jiang Zhi to take him to the cemetery.

There, Ling Jingyuan met Jiang Zhi's mother and maternal grandparents.

Jiang Zhi looked at the photo of her young mother, her eyes filled with tears and her voice gentle.

"Mom, Grandpa, Grandma. I've come to see you. This is my boyfriend, Ling Jingyuan."

Ling Jingyuan looked at the photos of the woman who looked very similar to Jiang Zhi on the tombstone, as well as the photos of a pair of kind old people next to her, and gently placed the flowers in his hand in front of the tombstones.

"Jiang Zhi, may I speak with your aunt, grandparents, and maternal grandparents alone?"

Jiang Zhi paused slightly upon hearing this, but ultimately nodded gently and walked to the side.

Ling Jingyuan looked at Jiang Zhi's most cherished family members and, without thinking, kowtowed to their tombstones.

He then slowly stood up and said something.

Not far away, Jiang Zhi stood under a tree and watched Ling Jingyuan suddenly kneel down. She was slightly startled.

a long time.

Ling Jingyuan looked tenderly at Jiang Zhi under the tree not far away. Just then, a gust of wind blew by, lifting Jiang Zhi's hair, as if in agreement with Ling Jingyuan's request.
