Chapter 306: A Scheme and Enduring Humiliation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After He Chen left, Nan Kang’s gaze s.h.i.+fted to Zheng Yue.

Zheng Yue did not say anything, but there was a smile on her lips. She lowered her head and slowly took a sip of the coffee she had just made. Her movements were refined, polite, and elegant.

Nan Kang watched her actions and his gaze subconsciously moved to Zheng Yue’s lips that were covered in glaze. The bright color made him unable to help but fantasize about its softness.

Then, the edge of her lips that were holding the cup relaxed, leaving a pink lipstick mark.

The lipstick mark turned into a spark that instantly ignited the flames in Nan Kang’s heart, causing it to burn fiercely.

There were still four days before Murong Qiao’s birthday. Murong Chen and the others were busy preparing for their Little Sister’s birthday banquet and gifts, trying their best to give Murong Qiao an unparalleled surprise.

Murong Qiao was also considerate enough not to disturb her Big Brothers, so when she was bored or had something to say, she would go to Huo Yichen.

But perhaps it was her imagination, but Murong Qiao felt that Huo Yichen seemed to be very busy these past few days.

[Are you free tomorrow?]

Murong Qiao’s gaze landed on the chat box between the two of them. This was the last message she had sent to Huo Yichen this afternoon, but the other party hadn’t replied.

She sat in front of the computer with a heavy heart and looked at the dense words on the screen. For the first time, she was not in the mood to continue writing.

The frustration in her heart was restless, and it made her feel troubled.

Murong Qiao simply stopped what she was doing and looked at the phone screen. She couldn’t help but call Huo Yichen.

The dial tone didn’t last long before the call was connected.

“Qiaoqiao?” Huo Yichen was puzzled.

Murong Qiao pursed her lips. She heard some noise in the background on Huo Yichen’s side, along with some human voices. She didn’t know what he was doing.

“Are you—very busy?” Murong Qiao asked after a moment of hesitation.

Actually, it was fine if he did not reply to her messages for two to three hours. However, Murong Qiao really wanted to know what Huo Yichen was doing and wanted him to talk to her.

Huo Yichen’s voice came through the phone after a while, clearly apologetic.

There seemed to be less noise in the background. Murong Qiao guessed that Huo Yichen had walked a little further.

His voice was low and pleasant to the ears. “Sorry, I’m in a meeting now. 1 just saw your message. Of course I’m free tomorrow.”

Huo Yichen explained the reason apologetically and answered Murong Qiao’s question.

He spoke very slowly and patiently.

“Alright, let’s talk later. The meeting is more important.” Murong Qiao expressed her understanding.

Naturally, the meeting could not be delayed. Moreover, Murong Qiao had heard from Huo Yichen a few days ago that he had a company to manage now.

Although the direction of business was different, as a boss herself, Murong Qiao knew how busy it was to manage a company.

However, after she finished speaking, the reaction of the person on the other end of the line responding and quickly ending the call still made Murong Qiao a little disappointed.

“He hangs up pretty fast,” she muttered.

Since she knew that Huo Yichen was busy, Murong Qiao was too embarra.s.sed to disturb him anymore.

She put down her phone and looked around the dormitory. She was alone now. Zheng Yue hasn’t returned, and she didn’t know where Yang Xin and Leng Yan had gone.

Helpless, Murong Qiao could only force herself to continue writing.

The sky gradually darkened.

After Zheng Yue finished dealing with the last doc.u.ment, she slowly stood up and walked out.

It was already eleven o’clock at night. Even the employees who worked overtime had already left.

Zheng Yue looked around and found the only light in the darkness. She walked towards Nan Kang’s office.

“Aren’t you getting off work yet?” She whispered.

There was no one at night, so Zheng Yue was naturally not as proper as during the day. She pushed the door open and walked in.

Nan Kang looked up and relaxed when he saw that it was Zheng Yue. “There are still some projects that have to be screened personally.”

Zheng Yue walked to his side and ma.s.saged his shoulders. The strength in her hands was sometimes light and sometimes heavy. It couldn’t be said that she was skilled, but it made Nan Kang relax a little.

Zheng Yue’s comfortable ma.s.sage gradually relaxed Nan Kang’s tense nerves. His frown also spread out and calmed down.

However, as she ma.s.saged him, the feeling changed.

Her dishonest hands slid down her neck. Zheng Yue bent down and leaned against Nan Kang’s body, as if she was leaning against him.

Nan Kang, who had originally relaxed and closed his eyes, also sensed the difference. He opened his eyes and looked at her with a faint smile and a hint of interest.

“I missed you so much—” Zheng Yue dragged out her voice.

She smiled and rubbed against Nan Kang’s palm. Her bright and clear eyes looked eagerly at Nan Kang, making his throat itch.

It had been a long time since Nan Kang had touched a woman.

Looking at Zheng Yue’s obedient and snuggling appearance in front of him, Nan Kang’s eyes darkened.

He reached out to touch Zheng Yue’s lips, and his fingers touched a softness.

“You missed me? Huh?” Nan Kang asked meaningfully.

Zheng Yue smiled shyly, but she did not retreat. Instead, she took the initiative to kiss Nan Kang’s fingertips.

What happened after that was as expected.

The temperature in the office gradually heated up. Zheng Yue lay in Nan Kang’s arms and played with her hair with one hand.

“You’ve… changed a lot recently,” Nan Kang asked casually.

After the round of intimacy, Nan Kang hugged Zheng Yue and was in a very good mood.

Perhaps it was because he had released his tension, Nan Kang realized that Zheng Yue was different from before.

He supported his body with one hand, making it more convenient for him to look at Zheng Yue’s face. He did not want to miss her every expression.

“You didn’t like that much in the past,” Nan Kang said again.

When he mentioned the pa.s.sion just now, Zheng Yue’s proactive att.i.tude was very rare. Even when Nan Kang wanted to try something new just now, Zheng Yue agreed good-naturedly.

Zheng Yue only leaned into his arms and smiled. Her eyes were bright and clear, and she was extremely obedient.

Seeing her like this, Nan Kang smiled too. He simply did not want to get an answer.

He only thought that Zheng Yue had learned her lesson and recognized reality.

However, Zheng Yue lowered her eyes, and the warmth in them dissipated.

There was only a hint of coldness left in her eyes, indicating that her mood was far from as good as before.

It was just s.e.x. As long as she could see Nan Kang living a life worse than death, what was this bit of sacrifice?

Nan Kang stroked her soft long hair. “I’m very sorry about the child.”

He was in a good mood, so he took the initiative to mention this matter.

Zheng Yue’s obedient behavior made Nan Kang feel comfortable. He was also willing to apologize for leaving Zheng Yue behind.

“At that time, there was fierce compet.i.tion for a commercial contract. If we can get the company, we can make a comeback.” Nan Kang explained the reason. “If the compet.i.tors found out about us…”

He looked at Zheng Yue apologetically, letting her understand his unfinished words.

Their matter couldn’t be considered aboveboard. In addition, Zheng Yue was pregnant at that time and Nan Kang did not help her. If his compet.i.tors learned about this, he would definitely fail the bidding.

Just like that, Nan Kang had run away in a hurry for the sake of the company.

“1 understand,” Zheng Yue said softly.

After she nodded to show that she understood, she pressed against Nan Kang and didn’t move, as if she was attached to the warmth of his body. Nan Kang enjoyed this very much.

She even smiled. “You sacrificed yourself to achieve greater things. 1 don’t think you’ve done anything wrong.”

Nan Kang looked down at her. After seeing no anger on Zheng Yue’s face, he felt that she was understanding and could really understand his previous decision. He felt even more gratified..
