When Ruan Qing was about to reach Chu Yi, the other looked like he didn’t want to talk to him, but his movements and posture slowed down considerably.
Obviously, he was waiting for Ruan Qing to hold him.
Ruan Qing could only reach out to stop him and softly speak, attempting to explain, “It’s not... “
Chu Yi, as if restrained by Ruan Qing, coldly interrupted, “What is not?”
“Not as the manager said.” Ruan Qing’s fingers, holding onto Chu Yi’s clothes, curled slightly, looking almost like he was about to cry. “I was only doing it for...”
“So you didn’t call those clients ‘lover’?” Chu Yi coldly interrupted Ruan Qing’s explanation.
Ruan Qing opened his mouth, but eventually lowered his head with a hint of grievance and self-deprecation. “...I did.”
Ruan Qing’s voice had a hint of a crying tone. “But you clearly said you didn’t mind...”
Chu Yi sneered at his words, turned around, and was about to leave.
However, Ruan Qing didn’t let go of his hand.
In reality, Ruan Qing’s strength was not great, and a casual struggle could have easily freed Chu Yi.
But Chu Yi seemed as if held tightly by Ruan Qing and did not break free. He looked at Ruan Qing and coldly said, “Let go.”
“I won’t.” Ruan Qing, with tears in his eyes, spoke with both stubbornness and pleading.
Ruan Qing looked at Chu Yi with a begging expression, “I was wrong. Don’t be angry, okay?”
Chu Yi paused at his words. “Where were you wrong?”
Ruan Qing spoke softly, “I won’t call anyone lover again in the future.”
Chu Yi’s tone softened slightly. “And?”
Ruan Qing thought for a moment and continued to speak softly. “I will always listen to you obediently in the future.”
“Not enough.” Chu Yi directly lifted him and held her horizontally, imprisoning him in his arms. He spoke with an unyielding tone, “In the future, apart from me, no one else can touch you.”
Ruan Qing pursed his lips, feeling a bit hesitant. “But, on the ‘Huayue’...”
“I will handle it.” Chu Yi said indifferently, carrying him to his office.
Ruan Qing hugged Chu Yi’s neck, gently burying his head in Chu Yi’s chest, showing a very dependent posture.
Perhaps because he was too tired. Before reaching Chu Yi’s office, Ruan Qing fell asleep.
The person in his arms breathed steadily, and Chu Yi naturally noticed it.
He gazed deeply at Ruan Qing, who had already fallen asleep in his arms. His steps slowed slightly, becoming more stable.
Chu Yi’s office didn’t have a bed, but there was a long sofa, suitable for a grown man to sleep on without any issues.
Gently placing Ruan Qing on the sofa, Chu Yi retrieved a blanket from the cabinet and covered him.
Then, he kneeled in front of Ruan Qing, gently brushing his fingers over the person’s brows and eyes.
Ruan Qing, due to the curvature of his eyes and the teardrop-shaped mole at the corner, exuded a seductive charm when his eyes were open.
However, with his eyes closed now, he gave off an innocent and obedient vibe, making it hard to believe he had engaged in certain activities.
Even though he was asleep, there was still a trace of unease. His long eyelashes were damp, and the corners of his eyes were still reddened, as if he had been crying for a long time, appearing extremely fragile and as if he could break at the slightest touch.
Chu Yi’s gaze grew darker, as if he wanted to devour the person in front of him, like a predator targeting its prey.
If an ordinary person saw this gaze, they would likely be terrified and only want to escape.
The person involved had already fallen asleep.
Chu Yi’s finger moved slightly downwards, landing on Ruan Qing’s thin lips. He then lightly rubbed Ruan Qing’s lips, making the faint pink color turn rosy.
Perhaps Chu Yi didn’t pay attention to his strength, and the sleeping person was disturbed. Ruan Qing moved slightly.
Seeing this, Chu Yi withdrew his hand, just watching. It was unclear how long he had been doing so until the sound of his phone vibrating in his pocket interrupted the scene.
Chu Yi took out his phone, glanced at it, and then left the office with his phone in hand, gently closing the door behind him.
Ruan Qing, who had initially pretended to be asleep, probably exhausted from the recent events, had actually fallen asleep. After spending the night in the rented room, he hadn’t relaxed his guard and didn’t rest well.
It was difficult to determine how much time had passed.
“Boom!!!”
A deafening explosion suddenly echoed not far away.
Ruan Qing instantly opened his eyes, and even though he had just woken up, there was no trace of drowsiness in his gaze. After quickly scanning the empty office, he stood up, opened the door, and looked towards the building across where the explosion had occurred.
All of this area fell within the scope of the physics department, and the building that exploded was the laboratory building for physics experiments.
Was it... an accident?
No, definitely not some accident.
Perhaps the culprit had struck again.
Ruan Qing checked the time on his phone; it was already past six in the evening, and the latest class at Hengming University ended at half-past five.
However, due to the difficulty of some physics experiments, some students would continue to stay in the laboratory after class.
Ruan Qing’s location was very close to the building that exploded, separated only by a small garden-like corridor.
Moreover, the buildings were connected; even in this building, one could reach the laboratory building through a covered corridor.
Without hesitation, Ruan Qing immediately walked towards the laboratory building through the covered corridor.
The explosion was so loud that it was normal for students to be attracted to gather and watch.
Him going there wouldn’t be abrupt either.
Ruan Qing was relatively close; the laboratory that exploded was on the same floor as where he was.
So, he only needed to pass through a covered corridor and then turn a corner.
However, to his surprise, when Ruan Qing arrived, there was already a person standing at the entrance of the laboratory that exploded.
...Ning Mufeng?
Ruan Qing’s heart tightened. Why would Ning Mufeng be here?
Did he cause the explosion just now?
Probably hearing footsteps, Ning Mufeng turned his head and glanced at Ruan Qing, tilting his head slightly. “Classmate Wang?”
“Why are you here?”
Ruan Qing pursed his lips and spoke coldly, “None of your business.”
After saying that, Ruan Qing glanced at the deformed door of the exploded laboratory.
Perhaps his expression was too obvious, as Ning Mufeng shook his head slightly. “It wasn’t me. I came over after hearing the explosion.”
“It was already like this when I arrived.”
Just as Ruan Qing was about to say something else, a faint cry for help from a male student inside the laboratory reached his ears. “Help...”
Ruan Qing’s eyes widened. There’s someone inside the laboratory!?
Ruan Qing immediately limped towards the entrance of the laboratory.
Ning Mufeng also heard the sound and rushed into the laboratory regardless of the danger.
Ruan Qing’s heart sank slightly. He quickened his pace despite his injured foot, fearing that Ning Mufeng might be the culprit.
And rushing in was just to make up for his shortcomings.
After all, the information from the instance had never stated that Ning Mufeng was not the culprit.
Thanks for the chapter
