Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
According to the schedule, Nan Kang brought Zheng Yue to socialize with clients.
The contracts on the dining table were usually vetted after drinking and Nan Kang drank without hesitation.
“Then this matter is settled?” Nan Kang looked at the client.
The client this time was good at drinking, but he was straightforward and generous. In order to negotiate this contract, he did not ask Zheng Yue for help. Instead, he drank a lot.
The client raised his gla.s.s and took a sip before answering, “Of course, of course!”
It was rare for him to drink so happily as the contract went even smoother than he had imagined.
Zheng Yue sat at the side and looked at Nan Kang worriedly. She reached out and stroked Nan Kang’s back.
“Did you choke?” Zheng Yue handed him a gla.s.s of water, her tone concerned.
After discussing the collaboration and sending the client off, he could not hold back the itch in his throat and coughed twice.
He took the gla.s.s and took a sip of water. His throat, which had become hot from the alcohol, seemed to have really recovered a little.
Nan Kang turned to look at Zheng Yue. At this moment, the dress emphasized her pure and innocent temperament.
Nan Kang coughed twice, and a fire burned in his heart when she touched his back.
A spark could start a prairie fire.
Seeing that he had drunk so much, Zheng Yue helped Nan Kang find a hotel and booked a room.
Things were progressing according to what she had in mind. She helped Nan Kang to the bed, and the smell of alcohol made her feel a little drunk.
She settled Nan Kang on the bed and was about to leave when someone grabbed her arm.
“Ugh…” Nan Kang instinctively pulled her back.
Alcohol tends to amplify someone’s desires. Nan Kang’s hidden liking for Zheng Yue in the past seemed to have found an opening, and they all came out.
Zheng Yue fell to the side of the bed with his pull and pressed herself against Nan Kang. It was then that their eyes met.
She was young, beautiful, and energetic.
Her soft and snow-white skin was right in front of him, and a fragrance silently invaded Nan Kang’s sense of smell, causing his thoughts to be in a mess as he let his instincts control him.
Everything that happened after that happened naturally.
However, Zheng Yue deliberately didn’t drink much, so she was more sober than Nan Kang. She bit her lower lip, causing a burst of pain to wake her up.
Nan Kang, who was beside her, was in a deep sleep. Zheng Yue reached out and pushed him, but he did not wake up. She was relieved.
She stood up and took out the tool knife that she used to trim her brows from her bag. She gently stabbed her fingertip.
Dark red blood flowed out bit by bit and dripped onto the bed sheets. Zheng Yue then smudged it before she was satisfied.
The last bit of “evidence” had been made up. Now, she just had to wait for Nan Kang to discover it himself.
Nan Kang was her best choice at the moment.
After confirming that there was no mistake, Zheng Yue returned to the bed and finally closed her eyes slowly, allowing herself to fall asleep.
The next morning, Nan Kang opened his eyes first.
“Ouch.” He sat up, holding his head.
The consequence of drinking too much was a splitting headache when he woke up. Fortunately, Nan Kang quickly overcame the discomfort and looked around the surroundings.
He noticed the unfamiliar hotel and the clothes that had obviously been thrown to the ground. When Nan Kang saw this, shattered memories began to surface in his mind, vaguely recalling what had happened last night.
Zheng Yue seemed to have been woken up by his movements. She rubbed her eyes and slowly sat up from the bed.
She sat up naked and looked groggy. Her hands touched the pillow for a long time, probably looking for her cell phone.
Nan Kang sighed and handed the phone to Zheng Yue. “Here.”
He handed the phone on the bedside table to Zheng Yue, his brows had not relaxed since he woke up.
Zheng Yue took the cell phone in a daze. She glanced at Nan Kang and then at the bright red bedsheets before her face turned pale.
“You, I—” She stuttered, unable to complete her sentence.
Zheng Yue pretended to be shocked and imitated her reaction when she woke up on Ji Fei’s bed two days ago. She pulled the bed sheets to cover her body and blushed as she looked at Nan Kang.
Nan Kang had not expected things to happen so suddenly. He had actually gotten to this point while drunk.
The development of the situation far exceeded his original plan. Before Nan Kang could think about what to do next, he saw from the corner of his eye that Zheng Yue’s eyes were sparkling with tears.
She did not cry out loud. Zheng Yue just curled up on the bed and hugged her legs as she cried silently. She looked especially pitiful as she sobbed.
But the more it was like this, the more Nan Kang felt soft and guilty. He secretly blamed himself for not restraining himself last night.
To be fair, the age difference between the two of them was big enough for Nan Kang to be Zheng Yue’s father. Now, it was obvious that Nan Kang had taken advantage of the situation.
Furthermore, when Nan Kang was clearing his thoughts, he glanced at the bedsheets. The touch of bright red made him feel secretly happy.
The people Murong Qiao sent to keep an eye on Zheng Yue reported to Murong Qiao the next morning.
“Zheng Yue and Nan Kang stayed in the same room in the hotel for the entire night and didn’t come out…”
Murong Qiao saw this message as soon as she woke up.
When she saw Zheng Yue take the drunk Nan Kang to the hotel to get a room, Murong Qiao could guess what she was up to.
This was exactly what she wanted.
She typed a reply. “Keep an eye on her. Let me know if there’s anything new.”
The corners of Murong Qiao’s mouth curled up, and her mood improved.
The matter was already more than half done. Zheng Yue had also reached the corresponding progress as Murong Qiao had expected.
Murong Qiao had a plan in mind and treated Zheng Yue as a chess piece in her hand. Zheng Yue could only follow the path Murong Qiao had planned obediently.
Fortunately, Zheng Yue did not disappoint her.
At this moment, in the hotel, Zheng Yue and Nan Kang had put on their clothes and tidied themselves up as neatly as possible.
“Can you go home and rest today?” Nan Kang lowered his voice, looking less serious. “I’ll visit you after work.”
Nan Kang saw all the bruises on Zheng Yue’s body. Thinking that this was the young lady’s first time, he felt even more pity for her. He would definitely have to give Zheng Yue a break.
Zheng Yue stood there cautiously. When she heard Nan Kang’s words, she couldn’t help but reach out and tug at his sleeve.
“I—” she began.
Nan Kang looked at her. “Don’t worry about your salary. You’re already in this state. Are you still afraid that I won’t support you?”
At this moment, he was standing neatly by the bed and looking down at Zheng Yue. At a glance, he saw the panic in the depths of Zheng Yue’s eyes and understood the source.
“Just stay at home and rest. Call me if anything happens.” Nan Kang hugged her.
In his opinion, Zheng Yue’s first time belonged to him. Nan Kang had already promoted Zheng Yue from an a.s.sistant to a higher position in his heart.
Hearing Nan Kang’s words, Zheng Yue felt much more at ease.
“Okay,” she said.
With Nan Kang as her backer, Zheng Yue’s heart, which had been hanging high, also relaxed.
She wanted Nan Kang to be responsible for her.
Zheng Yue therefore followed Nan Kang’s instructions and returned home.
After tidying up, she lay on the bed. Seeing that the plan was a success and Nan Kang believed it without a doubt, Zheng Yue was relieved.
She remembered that she hadn’t talked to Murong Qiao for two days and hurriedly sent a message.
“I blacklisted Ji Fei. It’s good to forget this sc.u.mbag.”
Anyway, she already had Nan Kang now. At the thought that her plan had succeeded, Zheng Yue’s mood became much lighter.
As soon as she sent the message, Nan Kang’s transfer was also sent over.
“We’ll talk if it’s not enough.” These were Nan Kang’s words.
Since their relationship had changed, Nan Kang was indeed responsible as he had said.
He had transferred her a sum of money which was several times higher than Zheng Yue’s current salary..
