A wall lamp was lit by the bed. After watching Li Jiuyuan's back all day, she finally saw his face clearly.

Even though it had only been a day since they last met, she never expected that she would feel such joy at their long-awaited reunion.

Perhaps it was the atmosphere, or perhaps it was long ago, even when she herself was unwilling to admit it, that Li Jiuyuan's position in her heart had already changed.

All those grievances and resentments vanished in an instant.

Jiang Momo could only see Li Jiuyuan's face.

Even though her body was so weak, she couldn't resist raising her hand to touch Li Jiuyuan's cheek.

"Ninth Master..."

The words they wanted to say turned into murmurs one after another in the long night as Li Jiuyuan's figure fell back down.

Perhaps still harboring resentment, Li Jiuyuan unusually didn't hold back this time.

Jiang Momo finally realized how much Li Jiuyuan had cherished her when they were together in the past.

The unbearable feelings, like turbulent waves, relentlessly battered her reason.

Jiang Momo, her body limp, was helped up. With her back to Li Jiuyuan, she left a trail of damp fingerprints on the leather headboard.

That night was hot and sticky.

……

Under the same moonlight, the light shone into different floors. In another room, Li Yunqi wearily pushed open the door and turned on the light.

The luxurious decor of the hotel's presidential suite was on full display, but Li Yunqi paid no attention to it.

As the young master of the Li family, he had long been accustomed to this extravagant lifestyle.

It is precisely because of habit that we seem to care less.

He walked to the table and opened his suitcase.

The company had originally arranged accommodation for him, but he wanted to be closer to Jiang Momo, so he came straight to the hotel after getting off the plane.

Li Yunqi took out the shirt that Jiang Momo had given him from the box, sat on the bed, and slowly covered his face with the shirt.

Even if the clothes were new, and Jiang Momo might not have even touched them once, he could still sense that they carried the scent of his lover.

It was very light, covered by commercial perfume, yet enough to soothe his longing.

This was given to him by Momo.

This shows that Momo must love him very much.

As the night deepened, his mind raced through all the scenes from the time the two of them got together.

What was originally just an ordinary memory suddenly made Li Yunqi pause in surprise when he thought of certain things.

On the very day he received the clothes, Jiang Momo seemed to have said something to him.

He hadn't paid attention at the time, but now Li Yunqi was desperately trying to recall.

"If I remember correctly... Momo said she was grateful to me for introducing her to President Jing?"

According to Jiang Momo, her current job was obtained for her by Li Yunqi.

However, Li Yunqi himself knew nothing about this matter.

He never went to Jingtailan.

Or rather, although he was a member of the Li family, he was not her capable uncle, and could only exchange a few words with Jing Tailan at most.

However, as everyone knows, Jing Tailan despises people who use connections, and he has no way to influence Jing Tailan's personnel appointments.

Why would Momo have such a misunderstanding?

Clearly, he couldn't come up with any ideas on his own.

Li Yunqi remained silent, looking at the shirt in his hand.

Suddenly, a very obsessive thought came to mind.

Regardless of how the misunderstanding arose, since Jiang Momo already believes that he did it, why doesn't he just admit it?

In this way, the distance between the two can be shortened.

Two thoughts were arguing wildly in my head.

One said he couldn't do such a despicable thing.

But the other said:

"I'm doing all this for Momo, and besides, she's already accepted this reality, so why not seize this opportunity?"

Annoyed by the noise, Li Yunqi had a headache. He shook his head to clear his head.

Having made his decision, he buried his face back into his shirt, inhaling the scent of Jiang Momo.

"No matter what, I'm willing to pay any price to be with Momo."

Even if it means being a usurper, an imposter.

……

The curtains were drawn, and when Jiang Momo opened her eyes, the room was dimly lit.

She even thought it was still midnight. Moreover, if it weren't for the soreness in her body, Jiang Momo would have almost thought last night was just a dream.

But the facts are right in front of us.

She was so weak that she could barely lift her hand.

...Li Jiuyuan is a bastard!

Jiang Momo gritted her teeth, but dared not openly curse him, nor dared she admit it, from the moment she saw Li Jiuyuan last night.

All the discomfort and unease she had been feeling all day vanished without a trace. At this moment, she couldn't even explain why she felt a strange sense of fulfillment and security.

"woke up?"

The sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and Li Jiuyuan came out, his gaze falling on Jiang Momo, his dark eyes reflecting her face.

Feeling a breeze on her back, Jiang Momo realized she wasn't dressed yet. She pulled the blanket over herself to cover herself further.

"Ninth Master, you really came?"

It wasn't her dream.

Jiang Momo thought the atmosphere would be awkward when the two met again after their argument, but Li Jiuyuan didn't bring it up, so she just smiled and let it go, pretending nothing had happened.

"Hmm." The man's voice was as cold as ever, tinged with malice: "After all, if I hadn't come, who left these marks on your body?"

Jiang Momo: ...

Sure enough, he couldn't be serious for more than two seconds in front of me!

What is all this about?

A hint of disdain flashed across Li Jiuyuan's face as he deliberately asked, "Could it be that it was left by the person who knocked on your door last night?"

Jiang Momo: ?

Her heart skipped a beat, fearing that Li Jiuyuan knew about their relationship.

On the other hand, she kept comforting herself.

Li Jiuyuan always loved to tease her, so this was definitely just something he said casually.

If he really knew what had happened between him and Li Yunqi, he definitely wouldn't be so calm.

Even though she was certain of this fact, Jiang Momo still couldn't hide her guilty conscience when she answered.

"Ninth Master, you really know how to joke. How could that be?"

Li Jiuyuan's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"That would be best."

What's impossible? This woman is capable of anything, and besides, he's never taken off the green hat on his head.

The phone emitted a message notification sound at just the right moment, and Jiang Momo felt as if she had grasped at a lifeline.

She looked around, trying to find her phone to avoid the topic.

However, after searching around, I still couldn't find the phone.

Finally, Li Jiuyuan walked to the bedside table, and following his movements, Jiang Momo finally saw what she was looking for.

Her phone was still vibrating; it seemed someone was sending her messages, and more than one.

Seeing Li Jiuyuan bend down to pick up his phone, Jiang Momo hurriedly said:

"Ninth Master! Don't move!"
