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

Ling Jingyuan glanced down at the messy room. His clothes and Jiang Zhi's sexy black lace nightgown were still tightly intertwined on the bed.

Ling Jingyuan's eyes darkened, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

There has finally been some progress these past few days. At least he is certain of one thing: Jiang Zhi doesn't really hate him.

Moreover, he seemed to have discovered Jiang Zhi's weakness and knew how to deal with this cat-like woman in the future.

"Hehe, a heartless little cat that usually looks gentle but gets angry and loves to scratch people, and then sneaks away after scratching them."

After Ling Jingyuan finished speaking, he couldn't help but look down at the deep and shallow nail scratches on his chest and chuckled softly.

"And it's a kitten that looks gentle but has sharp claws."

He knew without a doubt that the scratches on his back would be more numerous than those on his chest; she had scratched him fiercely when she hugged him yesterday…

"I'll let you play freely for a while, I'll come and catch you later."

Ling Jingyuan glanced at the black lace nightgown on the bed, which was tangled with his own clothes, and his eyes were deep.

……

Jiang Zhi breathed a slight sigh of relief after leaving Ling Jingyuan's residential area.

When she woke up in the morning, she saw the trash can in her room overflowing with toilet paper and...

Thinking that all of those were Ling Jingyuan's masterpieces last night, she couldn't help but blush even more.

Thinking about the phone call earlier, she gently patted her face to calm herself down. She hailed a taxi, gave them her apartment complex address, and called Shen Yutong back.

The call was quickly connected, and before Jiang Zhi could speak, Shen Yutong's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Zhibao, what happened just now? Why did they hang up on me when I called you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi's face, which had been slowly returning to normal, began to burn again. What should she say?

She simply couldn't bring herself to describe the situation at the time.

Jiang Zhi opened her mouth, organized her thoughts for a long time, and finally only said softly, "Oh, I accidentally hung up."

"By the way, is there something you wanted to see me about?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yutong didn't think much of it and asked with a smile, "Hi, it's nothing much, I just wanted to ask if your wound is healed? Have you gone back to work?"

At this point, Shen Yutong paused and lowered her voice slightly.

"Also, I told you to go flirt with Ling Jingyuan, did you even try? Zhibao, listen to me, stop thinking about Gu Shen, if you're going to sleep with someone, go sleep with Ling Jingyuan, he's rich, handsome, and..."

"Yutong..."

Jiang Zhi's face flushed again upon hearing Shen Yutong's words; her friend was truly a master of making outrageous statements.

"Don't mention this again..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yutong paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Alright, if Zhibao doesn't like it, I won't say anything. By the way, are you home? I'll come see you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi glanced at her current appearance, thought for a moment, and said softly, "I'm going home right away. Don't come. I'm going back to rest. I have to go to work tomorrow. Let's make plans again on Friday or Sunday."

"Okay, then let's make an appointment when you're free."

Shen Yutong knew that Jiang Zhi worked very hard and was very busy, and she didn't want to disturb Jiang Zhi's rest.

The two chatted for a few more minutes before Jiang Zhi hung up the phone.

Upon arriving at the residential complex, Jiang Zhi paid the fare and quickly headed home.

As soon as she got home, Jiang Zhi grabbed a change of clothes and quickly went into the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Jiang Zhi took off her clothes and stood in front of the mirror, looking at her body. Starting from her neck, there was hardly a good spot on her body. Her body was covered with marks left by men, some kissed and some bitten, in varying shades and colors, which was quite a sight.

Jiang Zhi was slightly taken aback, and her face flushed slightly.

Isn't Ling Jingyuan supposed to be abstinent and aloof?

Where did he abstain from sex?

What are these marks on her body?

She doesn't seem to abstain from sex at all; in fact, she's quite sexually averse to it...

Last night, she begged for mercy until her voice was hoarse, but the man showed no sign of getting tired or stopping. She was so exhausted that she fell into a deep sleep and didn't even know when he finally stopped.

Thinking of Ling Jingyuan's terrifying physical strength, Jiang Zhi couldn't help but blush. It was too terrifying.

"Stop thinking, stop thinking," Jiang Zhi silently repeated a few times in her heart, then turned on the shower and washed herself thoroughly, inside and out.

She's so tired right now, her whole body aches and she just wants to sleep and rest.

Jiang Zhi quickly took a shower, dried her hair, changed into her comfortable pajamas, threw herself onto the bed, pulled the covers over herself, and fell asleep almost immediately.

Perhaps it was because he received the perks last night and this morning, and got to pet the kitten he had been longing for, that Ling Jingyuan was in a good mood all day.

Seeing his assistant Li Rui enter with the documents, he signed them while looking at Li Rui with a pleasant tone.

"Pass the word: everyone has been working hard lately, so everyone's year-end bonus will be doubled."

Li Rui was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then quickly recovered and left with a smile, clutching the documents. Ling Jingyuan watched Li Rui's somewhat unsteady steps and couldn't help but smile; indeed, sharing joy is worse than enjoying it alone.

Suddenly, the phone on the table started vibrating incessantly. Ling Jingyuan picked it up and opened the group chat for the three of them to check the messages.

[Fu Libai: Shall we get together tonight?]

[Zhou Siye: If I have time, sure.]

Fu Libai: Where is Young Master Ling?

[Fu Libai: Young Master Ling?]

[Fu Libai: Ling Da?]

[Fu Libai: Big?]

Ling Jingyuan glanced at Fu Libai's almost-flooded screen and slightly twitched the corners of his mouth. He picked up his phone and quickly replied with a message using his slender fingers.

[Ling Jingyuan: Fu Libai, aren't you bored?]

[Fu Libai: Oh, you finally decided to show up? I thought you'd disappeared. Why would I look for you if I wasn't bored?]

[Fu Libai: Give me a reply, are we getting together tonight?]

Ling Jingyuan: I'm busy.

Seeing Ling Jingyuan's two indifferent words in the group chat, and knowing that Fu Libai wasn't speaking this time, Zhou Siye quickly typed a message.

[Zhou Siye: Jingyuan, what have you been up to lately? It's been so long since I've seen you.]

Ling Jingyuan looked at the message on his phone, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as if he had thought of something.

[Ling Jingyuan: I've been busy lately; the kitten ran away and I have to go catch it.]

Fu Libai: ???

[Zhou Siye:? 】

[Ling Jingyuan: Forget it, I can't explain this to you people who've never owned a cat. You wouldn't understand anyway.]

Fu Libai and Zhou Siye, who had never owned a cat before: ...

It's just raising a cat, right?

What is this guy so proud of?

Ling Jingyuan glanced at the time, got up, grabbed his phone, and left the office. It was time to go catch the cat.

Today, Ling Jingyuan chose a low-key Land Rover for his own car. He first went to a top-notch private restaurant to pack up his dinner before driving straight to the residential area where Jiang Zhi lived.

Catching the cat is one thing, but you still need to feed it, otherwise the kitten will probably get angry and throw a tantrum...
