The sketch depicted a rough outline of a building.

The outline was unique and innovative, even… seemingly drawn from an architectural perspective.

It wasn’t drawn randomly…

Dongfang Yu’s eyes were deep. Had Hai Xiaotang come up with it herself?

But he was sure it was not his design, nor could he find anything similar in his books.

What surprised him even more was that her design closely resembled the type of building soon up for bidding.

He didn’t recall mentioning to her what the design scope of this competition was.

Did she hear it from someone else?

At this moment, Dongfang Yu was full of questions.

As Dongfang Yu entered the bedroom, he saw Hai Xiaotang dressed in her pyjamas, lying on the bed, flipping through his portfolio.

Her legs were bent upwards, with her petite, fair feet swinging idly in the air.

Somehow, it was very distracting.

“My mother has already left, you don’t have to sleep here anymore,” he reminded her coolly.

Hai Xiaotang turned her head to look at him, sighed and said, “But she got someone to monitor us. If we don’t sleep together, she will come back.”

“Are you sure that’s not just an excuse you made to stay?”

Hai Xiaotang simply pointed to the couch, “I’ve already prepared the pillow and blanket for you. You can sleep there or go to another room.”

Dongfang Yu looked over, his lips curling into a mischievous grin, “You want me to sleep on the couch?”

“Yes.” Hai Xiaotang confirmed, nodding her head, “You’re a man, So, of course, you should.”

Dongfang Yu stood beside the bed, hands on his waist, finding the situation amusing, “Hai Xiaotang, I think you’ve misunderstood two things. Firstly, the couch is only 1.8 meters long and I’m 1.88 meters tall. Secondly, I’m the master of this place, not you!”

Hai Xiaotang asked with a smile, “Am I not the hostess of this place? Even if it’s temporary, it’s still the case. I’m sorry. If you’re not sleeping on the couch, go sleep in another room.”

She wondered if he’d dare to sleep in another room.

If he did, his mother-in-law would find out and he would be the one in trouble.

In any case, she was not going to sleep on the couch.

Hai Xiaotang continued to scrutinize the portfolio when suddenly, a formidable shadow lunged at her from the side!

Before she could react, her body was instantly pinned down from behind!

Hai Xiaotang struggled to turn her head, “What are you doing?!”

Dongfang Yu leaned into her face, his lips curling into a wicked grin, “I don’t want to sleep on the couch, and you don’t want to either, so we should naturally sleep on the bed together!”

“Who wants to share a bed with you! Let me go…” Hai Xiaotang tried to wriggle free, but she was unable to move his big, strong body.

Her delicate body squirming only seemed to arouse Dongfang Yu even more!

The man forcefully pinned her down, his eyes dangerously deep like a black hole.

Hai Xiaotang met his gaze close up, feeling an inexplicable sense of panic and nervousness, “…What are you trying to do?”

Dongfang Yu’s deep black eyes stared directly into her own, his breath burning hot.

He uttered in a low, gravelly voice, “Hai Xiaotang, it seems like you’ve forgotten who I am.”

“A man, a normal man!”

Therefore, even without feelings for her, he could still have urges.

Hai Xiaotang’s eyes flickered, her mouth faster than her brain, blurted out, “I don’t think you’re a normal man in front of me.”

As soon as she said this, she wished she could bite off her own tongue!

What was she saying?

As expected, Dongfang Yu’s eyes turned dangerous in an instant….
