Du Yanqing went back to his room to take a bath, then laid down on the soft bed. Due to the fear in her heart, she did not dare turn off the light, and tightly held onto her phone, waiting for Lu Juyan's reply. Gradually, her clear consciousness became a lot more blurry, allowing her to fall into a light slumber amidst the tranquil atmosphere.

Inside the Jiashi Group, Lu Juyan stayed in the conference room and listened to the summary meeting for nearly four hours, which made him feel pain in his back and waist. An indescribable feeling spread out from the bottom of Lu Juyan's heart. He took out his phone and saw that there was no electricity in it.

"The rest is up to you."

Lu Juyan patted Xi Ao's shoulders, and turned and left after instructing him. He returned to the rented room in a hurry without even eating anything. When he noticed the note on the table and the refund for the contract, he became a lot more relaxed.

He sat in his room and used the charger to charge his phone. He immediately switched on his phone to get a message from Du Yanqing. He glanced at his surroundings and packed his stuff without saying anything else. He then headed downstairs to his landlady's house.

"Mr. Landlord, I'm here to check out."

The landlord, who was about to rest, heard the knock on the door. He put on a thin coat and walked to the door, using his peephole to look at the person outside and realised that it was Lu Juyan who opened the door. Before he could even open his mouth to speak, he saw Lu Juyan hand over the refundable rent.

Knowing the situation between the two, the landlord didn't say much and just nodded his head. He had originally wanted to ask more, but Lu Juyan opened his mouth and said, "She has gone to her close friend's house to stay for the time being."

This caused the landlord to feel a bit surprised and he vaguely nodded his head. Before he could even react, he saw Lu Juyan's attitude of returning the key to him to express his thanks, but it did not lessen the noble aura on his body. Faintly seeming to have sensed something, she did not say much as she watched Lu Juyan's leaving figure and closed the door in embarrassment.

Lu Juyan dragged the suitcase back to his villa. Originally, he wanted to go to Du Yanqing's place to stay, but he didn't know how to explain why he didn't reply to him today, so he gave up on this idea.

The clouds were thick outside the window, the sky was low and the cold wind was howling. He blew up the curtains in Du Yanqing's room, and the stifling atmosphere that permeated the room caused Du Yanqing, who was lying on his bed, to feel unusually restless in his sleep.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Her eyes kept rolling left and right, and her body couldn't help but curl up. The image in her mind returned to the room three days ago. Her head was still hanging by the window, and blood was still dripping from it.

Ah!

In this terrifying dream, Du Yanqing suddenly screamed out loud and sat up straight from the bed. His pupils constantly dilated as he looked around at the unfamiliar scene in front of him in horror. Only then did she realize that this was Qu Yanyan's house, which made her gradually relax. Leaning on the headboard, she gasped for breath.

She looked down at her phone. Flipping through the text message sent to Lu Juyan, she still did not receive any reply, making her feel especially uncomfortable.

Outside the window, a bolt of lightning struck down, followed by a loud clap of thunder. Du Yanqing, who had originally calmed down, once again felt a surge of fear in her heart. She did not dare close her eyes, and even more so, did not dare to look towards another direction. He hid in a corner, hugging his knees and curling up.

Until the sun rose, Du Yanqing's tensed body was no longer able to resist his drowsiness and he fell into a light sleep. Not long after, Du Yanqing's alarm rang, pulling her out of her sleep.

A head-splitting feeling spread over Du Yanqing's head. When he looked at the time on his phone, he realized it was getting late. She rested for a while, then regained her composure and stood up.

She turned off the lights on the bed and staggered to the bathroom. After a simple wash, he returned to the company. Before she left, she covered the dark circles around her eyes with a layer of powder to make her look a lot more energetic.

"Yi, it's cyan, what's wrong with you? It can't be that you didn't sleep well, right? "

When Du Yanqing sat in the chair in the office, Qu Yanyan pushed open the door. Even before offering up the contract in her hands, even before she started to display a praising attitude, she had already detected Du Yanqing's expression, which was extremely unsightly to her.

Her fingertips grazed the foundation of Du Yanqing's thick eyes, causing her to feel heartache when she saw the thick black circles around his eyes. The originally happy mood suddenly dissipated by a lot, and a look of worry appeared on his face.

Du Yanqing originally did not want to say much, but after Qu Yanyan asked again and again, he honestly told her. Helpless, she pursed her lips. Her drowsiness allowed her to fall asleep again if she wasn't careful. He slapped his face and forced himself to stay awake, but to no avail.

Just then, the secretary walked in, brought a cup of freshly brewed coffee in front of Du Yanqing, then said goodbye to the two and left the place.

The rich fragrance of the coffee beans made Du Yanqing, who had not eaten breakfast, feel nauseous. He threw up and moved the cup of coffee to the side. Rubbing his temples, his already smeared face turned even paler.

"Why don't I stay with you tonight?"

Qu Yanyan walked behind Du Yanqing and removed her hand that was neither light nor heavy. He personally massaged her head and couldn't think of any other good methods, so as to prevent her body from collapsing. He couldn't help but suggest this.

Du Yanqing who had just calmed down a little, unwittingly nodded his head, without taking into account Yuan Wei's situation, he quietly enjoyed the special treatment. Only when they were much better did they pull Qu Yanyan's hand, and the two of them continued to play with each other for a while before starting to do their own work.

In the afternoon, Qu Yanyan dragged Yuan Wei, who was just in time to rest, to stroll around and specially choose a incense for Du Yanqing.

Yuan Wei watched Qu Yanyan's actions that afternoon. Thinking about Du Yanqing's current state, he also felt a little worried. Taking her hand, he personally picked up some vegetables for them and escorted her to the house.

Yuan Wei who had finished cooking in the kitchen placed the dishes on the table, and the three of them ate together. After chatting for a while, Yuan Wei stood up, picked up the suit that was hung on the sofa and wore it. Just as he was about to leave, Qu Yanyan opened his mouth and asked in a slightly anxious tone: "You're leaving so soon?"

"You two will stay together tonight, so I'll have to leave my work with me."

Because of Qu Yanyan's decision, the work he did in the afternoon was pushed down onto the web, and at this time, he had no choice but to leave. Rubbing Qu Yanyan's head, he said those words with a tinge of gluttony. The corner of his mouth curled up into a relieved smile, causing people to be unable to believe that he was currently jealous.
