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

The Ling family's old residence.

Ling's father, sitting on the sofa, smiled helplessly as he watched his wife rush off to the study, his eyes filled with tenderness. He then got up and followed her.

As soon as I entered the study, I saw my wife rummaging through things, seemingly looking for something.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Ling walked over to Ms. Zhou, gently smoothed her slightly disheveled hair, and softly asked, "Wife, what are you looking for?"

Upon hearing this, Ms. Zhou stopped what she was doing, grabbed Ling Shen, and hurriedly asked, "It's that antique jade bracelet that my mother-in-law left me, have you seen it?"

"Your son called to say that the girl agreed to be his girlfriend, and he wants me, his future mother-in-law, to prepare a gift for their meeting. Oh, I remember it being in the study before, where is it now?"

As Ms. Zhou spoke, she looked around with a puzzled expression. Upon hearing this, Mr. Ling chuckled softly, took his wife's hand, and led her to the desk, where a safe was hidden.

"Honey, is this what you mean?"

Ling's father took out a fine wooden box from the safe, and gently opened it to reveal a jade bracelet inside that looked excellent in color and luster.

Ms. Zhou's face lit up when she saw the jade bracelet in the box. She gently took the box and a slight smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

"Ling Shen, you're amazing, you found it so quickly."

"This is it, this is it."

"I'll give this to that brat when he brings his girlfriend back."

As Ling's father listened to his wife's praise, his eyes deepened, and he couldn't help but pull her into his arms and kiss her deeply.

Over the years, he has remained as fond and affectionate towards her as ever. It is a natural affection that emanates from his body and heart and will not fade with time.

On the contrary, this liking is like fine wine, only becoming richer and more mellow with the passage of time.

Ling Shen knew that from the first moment he saw Zhou Yun when he was young, his love and desire belonged only to the woman in front of him.

In the study, sweetness spread and happiness continued.

……

The three-person group chat exploded immediately after Ling Jingyuan sent a message.

Fu Libai kept sending messages in the group, but the instigator put his phone aside and busied himself in the kitchen.

[Fu Libai: Ling Jingyuan, where are you? Come out and talk to me.]

[Fu Libai: I told you, there's no way you can be like this. You start a sentence and then stop. Aren't you deliberately keeping me in suspense?]

[Fu Libai: Young Master Ling, the eldest son of the Ling family?]

[Fu Libai: Young Master Ling?]

Zhou Siye looked at the messages from Fu Libai flooding his phone and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

[Zhou Siye: Alright, stop creating junk and taking up my phone's memory.]

[Zhou Siye: What do you want to ask? Why don't you call him? Is your phone just for decoration?]

Zhou Siye understood immediately after glancing at Ling Jingyuan's message; this man must have caught up with that designer.

He took a sip of the red wine beside him and shook his head slightly. It seemed that he was going to lose his bet with Fu Libai.

Looking at the message Zhou Siye sent, Fu Libai couldn't help but cry at his own stupidity.

Yes, he can make a phone call.

With that thought in mind, he dialed Ling Jingyuan's number.

The phone rang for a long time before being answered. Just as Fu Libai was about to speak, he heard Ling Jingyuan's smug voice coming from the phone.

"What? How did you know I have a girlfriend?"

"If you have something to say, hang up and don't disturb my time with my girlfriend."

Fu Libai: ...

"Fine, fine, you're so great because you have a girlfriend!"

"Congratulations on finally winning her over, you 30-year-old man! Is that enough?"

Ling Jingyuan frowned upon hearing this and corrected him, "I'm twenty-nine. Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up. I'll bring my girlfriend to treat you and Si Ye to dinner sometime."

After saying that, Ling Jingyuan hung up the phone without hesitation.

Fu Libai looked at the phone that had been hung up and couldn't help but feel a pang of envy. It's just a girlfriend, right? He could find one in a minute.

Thinking of this, the image of a woman flashed through his mind. His eyes darkened slightly, and he quickly shook his head to erase the image from his mind.

It seems that Zhou Siye won his bet!

Jiang Zhi tidied up the bedroom for a while, and then she went to the living room and found Ling Jingyuan busy in the kitchen.

The man was wearing a black shirt and black suit pants, with the shirt rolled up to reveal his strong, muscular forearms.

The man exuded her cute pink aura, and the combination of black and pink surprisingly created a sexy, married man vibe.

Jiang Zhi stared in disbelief at Ling Jingyuan's skilled, efficient, and methodical movements in the kitchen. She felt that this man was truly like a treasure box; you never knew what kind of surprises he would give you next.

"What, are you smitten with your boyfriend?"

Ling Jingyuan turned his head slightly and saw Jiang Zhi standing in the living room staring straight at him. He gently curled the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of smiles.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi paused slightly, but instead of refuting, she nodded seriously.

"Hmm, she is somewhat charming."

Jiang Zhi spoke without thinking. Ling Jing originally thought that Jiang Zhi would blush and say no, but he didn't expect her to say that. His eyes paused slightly, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

He reached out and turned down the fire on the stove. He strode out of the kitchen, took a few steps to Jiang Zhi's side, pulled her close, and kissed her lips.

Mmm, it's sweet, soft, and fragrant.

"Thank you for your affirmation, girlfriend."

After a long while, Ling Jingyuan released Jiang Zhi's lips and looked at her with deep eyes.

Jiang Zhi blushed this time, and her eyes unconsciously softened as she glared at the man.

This man's mouth is really...

After dinner, the two stayed at home in the afternoon. Ling Jingyuan held Jiang Zhi and snuggled up on her small sofa to watch a movie together.

Jiang Zhi's daily routine is like this: besides gatherings with friends, she either goes to the library to read books on weekends or stays at home to clean, read books, or watch good movies.

She felt that this kind of life was very comfortable and pleasant.

After dinner, Ling Jingyuan pulled Jiang Zhi to take a walk in the neighborhood. At first, Jiang Zhi didn't understand, but later she realized what the man was up to.

It turned out that the man was there to assert his dominance. Many people in the neighborhood saw Jiang Zhi walking hand in hand with a strange man and couldn't help but come up to greet them. Their gazes were intentionally or unintentionally drawn to the two's clasped hands.

Fortunately, the streetlights in this neighborhood weren't very bright, so people couldn't see Ling Jingyuan's face clearly at night. Otherwise, if someone recognized Ling Jingyuan, she was sure she would become the talk of the neighborhood tomorrow and be the subject of endless gossip among the neighborhood aunties.

"Ling Jingyuan, that's enough. Let's go back. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I need to get some rest."

Jiang Zhi looked at the man who still wanted to pull her around again and couldn't help but speak softly.

Seeing his girlfriend acting coquettishly towards him, Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but give her a soft kiss. "Okay, I'll listen to my girlfriend."

After saying that, he took Jiang Zhi's hand and walked back directly.

Jiang Zhi was unaware that because of Ling Jingyuan's actions, the news that she had a boyfriend spread throughout the neighborhood the next day, breaking the hearts of many single young men.

For Ling Jingyuan, this night was sweet and blissful.

Even though he could only hold his girlfriend and sleep in a ceremonial position, aside from those two cold showers, everything else was perfect.

Early in the morning, my phone alarm went off right on time.

Jiang Zhi got up and went to the living room, where she found breakfast already prepared. She saw Ling Jingyuan busy in the kitchen like a fairy godmother.

"Good morning, baby."

Ling Jingyuan came out of the kitchen, hugged Jiang Zhi, and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Jiang Zhi let the man hold her, her gaze gentle. "Ling Jingyuan, good morning."

"Wash up and have breakfast. I'll take you to work later," Ling Jingyuan said softly, kissing Jiang Zhi's lips.

"No need, I have my own car and I drive very fast."

Jiang Zhi shook her head upon hearing this. Ling Jingyuan's car and his person were too conspicuous, and she didn't want to become the subject of gossip in the company.

"Okay, my girlfriend is great. I'll bring you lunch, wait for my call."

Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but rub Jiang Zhi's cheek.

"Okay." This time, Jiang Zhi did not refuse.

After spending some time together, Jiang Zhi finally left the house. At ten o'clock sharp, Ling Jingyuan came downstairs with his lunchbox and got into his car.

Inside the car, Assistant Li couldn't help but glance at his boss's beaming face a few more times.

"Assistant Li, please check your schedule and make time for me at noon. I need to deliver lunch to my girlfriend."
