Chapter 42

"Director Bai, what’s wrong with you?"

Ye Qiu saw that Bai Bing’s expression was off and quickly asked, at the same time, his eyes quickly glanced at the card.

The card read: "7 PM tonight, Crystal Palace, no excuses!"

At the bottom was a signature:

Xiao Qingdi!

The three characters were written in a flowing, dragon-like script, exuding a sense of arrogance in every stroke.

Ye Qiu was a bit curious as to why Bai Bing would react so strongly to seeing this card. Could it have something to do with the name on the card?

"Director Bai, who is this Xiao Qingdi?" Ye Qiu asked.

"It’s none of your business." Bai Bing said and quickly entered the office.

Ye Qiu was about to follow, but unexpectedly, Bai Bing locked the door behind him, leaving him outside.

"Director Bai, Director Bai..."

Ye Qiu called out a few times, but Bai Bing ignored him. He turned and went to the VIP ward to find Lin Jingzhi.

When he entered, he saw Lin Jingzhi sitting on the bed, giggling with her phone. Her body swayed with her laughter, and the two bunnies in front of her were bouncing wildly, as if they might jump out at any moment.

Ye Qiu couldn’t bear the sight and turned to leave.

"Stop!" Lin Jingzhi’s voice came from behind: "You came here, so why are you leaving?"

Ye Qiu had no choice but to turn around and said, "Sis Lin, I’ve never seen you laugh so happily before. I didn’t want to disturb you."

Lin Jingzhi gave him a seductive look: "Tell the truth!"

Ye Qiu was a bit surprised that his lie was seen through so quickly and said, "Sis Lin, I’ll tell the truth, but you can’t get mad."

"I won’t get mad, go ahead."

Ye Qiu glanced at Lin Jingzhi’s chest and said with a red face, "Can you please adjust your collar? I really can’t handle it like this."

Lin Jingzhi narrowed her eyes and asked with a smile, "Can you tell me what you can’t handle? Is it mentally or physically?"

The question was too awkward, and Ye Qiu didn’t know how to answer, his face turning even redder.

"Come here." Lin Jingzhi beckoned to Ye Qiu with her finger.

"What for?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Just come here, I won’t eat you." Lin Jingzhi seemed a bit dissatisfied.

Ye Qiu walked to the bedside.

Lin Jingzhi tilted her head and said, "Help me adjust my collar."

"Ah!" Ye Qiu was taken aback, looked down, and said with a red face, "Sis Lin, this isn’t right, men and women shouldn’t be so close..."

"Are you still a man? Hurry up!" Before Ye Qiu could finish, Lin Jingzhi impatiently urged him.

"But... this... Sis Lin, I beg you, don’t make it hard for me."

"How am I making it hard for you? If you don’t do as I say, I’ll accuse you of harassment. You know my personality, I mean what I say."

"Alright, alright, I’ll help you."

Ye Qiu had no choice but to help Lin Jingzhi adjust her collar.

Seeing his pained expression, like a wronged little wife, Lin Jingzhi chuckled and asked, "Does it look good?"

"What did you say, Sis Lin?" Ye Qiu was momentarily confused.

"Look down, and you’ll know."

Ye Qiu looked down, and instantly, a vast expanse of snow came into view, and it was...

Vacant!

In an instant, Ye Qiu felt his nose heat up, and he covered it, rushing into the bathroom.

Seeing his狼狈 (embarrassed) appearance, Lin Jingzhi laughed loudly, "Is it really that bad? Hahaha..."

After three or four minutes, Ye Qiu came out of the bathroom and saw that Lin Jingzhi had already adjusted her collar, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you okay?" Lin Jingzhi asked with a smile.

"I’m fine." Ye Qiu, worried that Lin Jingzhi would tease him further, quickly changed the subject, "Sis Lin, you were laughing so happily earlier. What’s so funny? Tell me."

"It’s nothing much, just read a web novel and found the author’s writing quite interesting."

"What novel? I like web novels too, recommend it to me."

"The book is called 'The Supreme Divine Doctor,' written by Hu Yanluan, serialized on Qimao Novels. It’s quite good." Lin Jingzhi said, "Since the novel is so good, the author must be quite good-looking too!"

For some reason, hearing Lin Jingzhi praise someone else, Ye Qiu felt a bit sour and said, "From what I know, most authors aren’t good-looking. The better the book, the uglier the author, like this Hu Yanluan."

"Are you jealous?" Lin Jingzhi asked with a chuckle.

"Jealous of what?" Ye Qiu said, "I don’t like being jealous, I like soy sauce."

Lin Jingzhi’s smile grew wider, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Qiu. She could tell that Ye Qiu was clearly jealous but refused to admit it.

This little man can be quite cute sometimes.

Lin Jingzhi thought to herself.

Ye Qiu felt uncomfortable under her gaze and quickly changed the topic, "Sis Lin, I have some good news to tell you."

"Don’t tell me yet, let me guess." Lin Jingzhi asked, "Is it about your promotion?"

"How did you know?"

Ye Qiu was full of surprise. Besides himself, Bai Bing, Director Li and his son, and Guo Danu, no one else knew about his promotion yet.

Ye Qiu was very curious how Lin Jingzhi knew.

"Because I have another nickname, the All-Knowing Super Cute Beauty." Lin Jingzhi stuck out her tongue, making a cute face, and asked Ye Qiu, "Do you believe me?"

Ye Qiu shook his head.

"Hmph, you don’t believe me. I’ll tell you, not only do I know about your promotion, but I also know that you’re wearing black today."

"What black?"

"What do you think?"

Lin Jingzhi glanced at Ye Qiu’s crotch and winked.

Instantly, Ye Qiu’s face turned red.

He was even more puzzled, wondering how Lin Jingzhi knew he was wearing black inside.

Knowing it was one thing, but why did she say it out loud?

This woman is really...

Thirty years old, like a wolf.

"Look at you, blushing again. I’ve never seen a man as shy as you, hahaha..." Lin Jingzhi laughed uncontrollably, and with the large movements, her body swayed, causing another surge of excitement.

Ye Qiu wished he could find a hole to hide in. He wasn’t usually easily embarrassed, but for some reason, he always blushed in front of Lin Jingzhi.

"Ye Qiu, a man needs more than just a career." Lin Jingzhi suddenly put on a serious face.

"Sis Lin, what do you mean?" Ye Qiu looked at her with confusion.

"He should also have a cleavage." Lin Jingzhi suddenly leaned forward, revealing a deep, endless white valley.

Ye Qiu glanced at it, and his breathing became rapid.
