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

Ling Jingyuan stared intently at Jiang Zhi, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.

"Jiang Zhi, don't seduce me."

Now that he's injured, he can't resist her seduction and can only watch helplessly.

Jiang Zhi had no idea how delighted he was by her current state. If the situation allowed, he would have loved to pull her into his arms right now and meld her tightly into his body.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi chuckled softly, her delicate and innocent face not blushing as usual as when she accused him of being silly.

Jiang Zhi's ears were slightly red, but her beautiful eyes did not look away as she stared straight at Ling Jingyuan, her voice gentle and coaxing.

"Then you need to recover quickly, and then I'll..."

Jiang Zhi bit her lip slightly before finally uttering the last few words softly.

Although Jiang Zhi spoke very softly, Ling Jingyuan had excellent hearing and he still heard it!

He looked at Jiang Zhi with a look of surprise and delight, his eyes burning with a intensity that seemed to scald him.

He gripped Jiang Zhi's hand tightly, staring intently at her, and asked again, "Jiang Zhi, repeat what you just said."

Although Jiang Zhi was a little conflicted upon hearing this, she hesitated for only three seconds before repeating what she had just said in a low voice with her ears turning red.

Ling Jingyuan's gaze became even more intense and burning.

"Jiang Zhi, you said it yourself, you can't go back on your word!"

Ling Jingyuan's sexy Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and his burning gaze was fixed on Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, as long as you recover quickly, I'll keep my word."

Having received Jiang Zhi's confirmation, Ling Jingyuan now desperately wished for a miracle cure to heal his shoulder wound immediately.

Ling Jingyuan wanted to talk to Jiang Zhi, but then the doctor and nurse walked in.

It needs to be checked.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhi gently said to Ling Jingyuan, "Now, cooperate with the doctors and nurses for the examination and try to heal your wound as soon as possible."

Ling Jingyuan was very obedient and cooperated with the examination.

He now has only one goal: to recover and be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible, and then find Jiang Zhiying and tell her what she said...

Because Ling Jingyuan was in good physical condition, and the wound was not in a vital area.

A week later, Ling Jingyuan was able to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate.

Ling Jingyuan was discharged from the hospital and returned to his old castle estate.

However, news of his injury still reached the country.

The main problem is that his movements were a bit too exaggerated.

He dealt with the Jiang family, including Jiang Shih-han and Qin Man.

Jiang Shih-han will spend the rest of her life in prison. Qin Man, on the other hand, has a criminal record, so although she won't spend her whole life in prison like Jiang Shih-han, she will inevitably have to spend a few years there.

The Qin family had long since given up on Qin Man, their abandoned daughter.

Merchants are profit-driven, and the Qin family will not bother with anyone who cannot bring benefits to the family.

After learning that Ling Jingyuan was injured, Ling's parents called him.

After learning the details and confirming that he was alright, Ling's parents were relieved and let him do as he pleased.

Zhou Siye and Lin Li also returned from their vacation abroad and called Jiang Zhi and Ling Jingyuan after hearing the news. Fu Libai and Shen Yutong, in addition, were relieved after confirming that Ling Jingyuan was alright.

Back in the castle, Jiang Zhi strictly followed the doctor's instructions to take care of Ling Jingyuan every day.

Ling Jingyuan didn't like others getting close to him, so Jiang Zhi always changed the bandages on his shoulder wound.

Bedroom, on the big bed.

Ling Jingyuan was forced by Jiang Zhi to lie down and rest in bed.

Jiang Zhi skillfully began to untie the gauze on Ling Jingyuan's shoulder, her movements gentle and earnest.

Every time Jiang Zhi sees the wound on Ling Jingyuan's shoulder, she still feels a pang of pain in her heart.

She disinfected and cleaned the wound, then quickly and gently wrapped it with new gauze. After finishing, Jiang Zhi got up to take the used gauze out.

Before she could make her next move, Ling Jingyuan pulled her back onto the bed with his long arm.

"Jiang Zhi".

The man was shirtless, with thick bandages wrapped around his shoulders. He approached Jiang Zhi with a burning, intense gaze.

"Jiang Zhi, I'm all better now."

Jiang Zhi was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, then she understood the deep look in the man's eyes.

She looked at the man with tenderness and affection, chuckled softly, and said in a coaxing tone, "Ling Jingyuan, be good."

"Just bear with it a little longer, let's talk about it after your shoulder injury is completely healed."

"Jiang Zhi." Ling Jingyuan called out softly, his dark, burning gaze fixed on Jiang Zhi.

"I only injured my shoulder, nothing else."

"If you don't believe me, try it."

After Ling Jingyuan finished speaking, he gave a wicked smile and grabbed Jiang Zhi's hand...

Jiang Zhi blushed, and with a red face, she glanced at a certain spot and quickly looked away.

"Jiang Zhi~"

Ten days have passed since Ling Jingyuan was injured and hospitalized, and he returned to the castle.

For ten days, he could only look at Jiang Zhi and couldn't do anything else; he was suffocating.

Hearing the man's coquettish voice, Jiang Zhi firmly shook her head; she couldn't soften her heart. His injury hadn't healed yet, and if touching it reopened the wound, it would be troublesome.

She didn't want to see him get hurt again, not at all.

"Ling Jingyuan, wait for the wound..."

Before Jiang Zhi could finish speaking, Ling Jingyuan looked at her with a pitiful and aggrieved expression, his eyes pleading.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhi's heart inexplicably softened; she could never be hard-hearted towards him.

"Jiang Zhi~"

"help me……"

This is a perk he receives while recovering from his injury.

As Ling Jingyuan spoke, he grabbed Jiang Zhi's waist with his large hand and kissed her. Jiang Zhi, seeing this, slightly avoided his wound and actively responded to his kiss.

"Mmm..."

Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but let out a soft groan, the sound incredibly alluring.

Jiang Zhi blushed even more upon hearing this, while Ling Jingyuan's eyes were deep and burning.

"Jiang Zhi".

He gently brushed the tip of his high, straight nose against Jiang Zhi's nose, his lowered eyes revealing an endless, dark depth. He lowered his head and kissed Jiang Zhi's lips again, forcefully and intensely.

Jiang Zhi liked his touch, liked his kisses, liked everything about him.

Jiang Zhi stopped running away and stopped holding back.

She opened her heart completely to Ling Jingyuan.

Their breaths mingled, growing increasingly erratic. Jiang Zhi's delicate face grew redder, while Ling Jingyuan's heavy breathing became even more labored.

Finally, Ling Jingyuan buried his head tightly in Jiang Zhi's neck, his breath hot.

Jiang Zhihong's face was flushed crimson.

After a long while, Ling Jingyuan released Jiang Zhi and took a tissue from the side to wipe Jiang Zhi's hands.

"Ling Jingyuan, I'm going to the restroom."

Ling Jingyuan chuckled softly and nodded upon hearing this. Jiang Zhi, now free, blushed and quickly entered the bathroom.

When Jiang Zhi returned after washing up, Ling Jingyuan had already washed the sheets and changed them.

Ling Jingyuan pulled her onto the bed and hugged her tightly, saying, "Jiang Zhi, let's go back to China."
