Hearing Lin Ru's agreement, her face revealed a satisfied smile, and after speaking a few more words with Lin Ru, she ended the call.

Once the call ended, An Qingruo looked at the time on her watch. Seeing that it was still early, she sat in front of her dressing mirror and carefully made herself up with a perfect and exquisite makeup.

After tidying himself up properly, An Qingruo took her car keys and backpack, then turned and walked out of the room.

Ruan Qingwan was watching TV in the living room. Seeing An Qingruo holding onto her bag as if she was about to go out, she could not help but ask with concern: "Yuan Yuan, it's already night time. What's up?"

Although Ruan Qingwan was not very satisfied with Lu Shijia's words previously, but now that she was this happy, she did not have the heart to say anything. She spoiled An Qingruo, so she only thought that An Qingruo being happy was the most important.

Therefore, he nodded his head and said to An Qingruo: "Alright, go ahead. Be careful when driving on the road."

"Yes, I know. Mom can relax."

With that, An Qingruo walked out of the villa, went to the garage, and drove the car that she drove normally.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye. Soon, it was already 9: 30 in the evening.

At this point, Ji Chenyu was still working overtime at the company meeting.

It wasn't easy for Ji Chenyu to finish a transnational video conference, so he could only move his neck that was a little sore as he walked out of the conference room and returned to his own President’s Office.

The moment he sat down, the screen on his desk lit up. Then, his phone rang.

Ji Chenyu took the phone and looked at it. It was his mother calling, and before this, she had already called him 6 or 7 times.

He had left in a hurry when he went to the meeting, so he had forgotten to bring his phone over.

It couldn't be that his mother called him at such a late hour, could it be that something urgent had happened?

Thinking about that, Ji Chenyu frowned and immediately pressed the button to connect the call.

Just as he placed the phone close to his ear, Lin Ru's weak voice came out from the phone, "Chen Yu, are you still working at the company?"

When Ji Chenyu heard Lin Ru's listless voice, he subconsciously frowned and spoke in a heavy tone, "Mn, I'm still in the company, mom, what's wrong? Did something happen? "

"Nothing much... I had a meal with a friend and ended up having a few more drinks. I was a bit dizzy from being drunk, so when they had matters to attend to, they gave me a room at the closest hotel, the Blessed Paradise. But I'm not used to staying at this hotel, so can you come over and bring mom home? "

Ji Chenyu heard his mother's words and thought it was true. He agreed to it immediately: "Okay, mom, I'll rush over. You should lie down on the bed to rest for a while."

While speaking, his voice paused for a moment. Ji Chenyu then asked, "Mom, do you know what the room number is?"

"It seems to be room 8052 …" Lin Ru then reminded her, "Chen Yu, come over quickly!"

"Mom, I know." With that, Ji Chenyu noted down the room number and immediately took the key in the car and walked out of the office.

Ji Chenyu's company was only a bit over 20 minutes away from the Holiness's Inn, so he had purposely sped up his car even further, so he had only been there 20 minutes, and it was only a few minutes before 10 o'clock.

He strode into the elevator and pressed the floor number. Three minutes later, the elevator stopped on the eighth floor and slowly opened the door.

Ji Chenyu walked out of the elevator and walked all the way to room 8052. He subconsciously knocked on the door, but just as he knocked, a crack appeared in the door.

The door was not closed at all. It was just ajar.

Pushing open the door, he only saw that the room was completely dark, even the lights were not turned on, Ji Chenyu subconsciously frowned, while walking in, he reached out his hand and turned on the lights.

However, after just taking a few steps, his hand touched the light switch. Suddenly, the door behind him slammed shut and was locked.

Just as the door was locked behind him, Ji Chenyu's hand had also touched the light switch. There was a light thump, and the pitch-black room was lit up instantly.

Almost at the same time that the room's light was lit, Ji Chenyu felt a warm body sticking closely to him from behind, and a pair of slender arms tightly wrapped around his waist.

The intelligent Ji Chenyu sensed that something was wrong in almost an instant, and the frown on his forehead deepened as he pulled on the arms around his waist.

Ji Chenyu's strength was great, and the person supporting him behind him could not resist at all. Ji Chenyu used a lot of force and the person was pulled right in front of him.

The one who stood in front of Ji Chenyu was An Qingruo!

At this time, An Qingruo was wrapped in a white bathrobe and standing in front of Ji Chenyu with a bashful look on her face.

However, when Ji Chenyu saw that the person was An Qingruo, his face darkened.

"Why are you here?!"

Ji Chenyu looked at An Qingruo and asked.

An Qingruo stared at Ji Chenyu with her bewitching eyes, breathing heavily as she enunciated each and every word, "Chen Yu, it was aunty who invited me here …"

An Qingruo's face did not turn red from lying, and her heart did not beat fast, as she pushed the lie onto Lin Ru.

In any case, Ji Chenyu would not ask Lin Ru about this sort of thing.

Ji Chenyu looked at An Qingruo who was leaning on him with a dark face. In the next second, Ji Chenyu pushed An Qingruo away with an ugly expression: "It's already very late, since my mother is not here, I'll be leaving first!"

With that, Ji Chenyu turned and walked out.

Seeing that, An Qingruo's face changed, she immediately followed and hugged Ji Chenyu from the back, and spoke: Chen Yu! Wait a minute! I still have something to tell you. "

Being carried so tightly by An Qingruo from the back, Ji Chenyu was momentarily unable to struggle free from An Qingruo's hold and his steps were halted. He stood in place with an even more unsightly expression on his face, and even his voice contained a hint of anger. Please have some self-respect! "

Even if he did not meet Ji Chenyu's gaze, An Qingruo could feel the anger and coldness from Ji Chenyu's body.

But An Qingruo did not care anymore, this was her only chance, if she failed this time, then there was no more possibility for her to marry Ji Chenyu.

Therefore, she had no choice but to gamble!

All she needed to do now was stall for time!

A few minutes before Ji Chenyu came in, An Qingruo calculated the time and lit up the small bag of medicinal powder she bought.
