The smile fell from Ling Yunhuan’s face as she poked Yan Yiren’s head. “What’s this? What’s with that longing expression on your face?”

Yan Yiren pulled her over to the couch. She sat down cross-legged with a pillow in her hand. It looked as if she was struggling to say what was on her mind.

Ling Yunhuan didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh at her. “What on earth happened? Tell me.”

“Huanhuan…” Yan Yiren plucked up her courage, blushing as she finally spoke her mind. “I’m thinking of losing my virginity to Hanjiang.”

“Why?!” Ling Yunhuan was unable to wrap her head around what she had said. “Didn’t you say that you would save yourself for your wedding night? Or are you saying that you and Hanjiang have already decided to get married?!”

“Well, that’s not it! He hasn’t even proposed.”

“Then why are you suddenly thinking of giving him your first time? If you do, then wouldn’t that your insistence that you wait all this time seem ridiculous?”

“I…” Yan Yiren sighed. “I’ve always thought that I wasn’t good enough for Hanjiang. But this encounter made me realize that whether we’re good enough for each other isn’t determined by our material possessions. So long as I’m the most important person in his eyes, that’s enough for me to know that I’m good enough for him.”

Ling Yunhuan didn’t say a word. Perhaps because she didn’t know what to say, she didn’t express her opinion on the matter.

Yan Yiren leaned her chin into the pillow, shyness apparent across her features. “Besides, I have tested him enough. Over the past three years, no matter how tormented he felt from holding back, he never once forced me to do anything. Now, it’s my turn to sacrifice something for him.”

“Hehe, have you really made your decision?” Ling Yunhuan asked her again. “You really aren’t going to wait till you guys get married before?”

Yan Yiren shook her head, her embarrassed expression saying it all.

Ling Yunhuan shrugged her shoulders helplessly. “Since you’ve already decided, then just do it. But my views remain the same. Since you’ve insisted on it since the start, you should insist on it till the very end. If he loves you, he’ll be accomodating and also be understanding and respectful to your wishes.”

After saying her piece, Ling Yunhuan drank a cup of water and said goodbye. “Since you’re fine, I’ll be getting back to work now. It was difficult for me to take leave for two hours.”

Yan Yiren put her pillow down. “I’ll see you off.”

“Don’t worry. We’re not strangers, so there’s no need for all this hospitality. I’ll get going. Make sure you get some rest. With the latest Chanel handbag, Ling Yunhuan walked out looking charming and chic.

…

“Young Master, we’re still unable to find anything. There aren’t any traces.”

Ji Hanjiang stood in front of the window with his hands on his hips. Once he heard those words, he turned around, pointing at the person before him accusingly. “You’re all bloody useless! What do you mean you can’t find anything. An adult was abducted! How can there be no trace of the crime?”

The bodyguard lowered his head. “Young Master, we’ve tried our best.”

Ji Hanjiang grabbed the ashtray on his desk and threw it at the bodyguard. The bodyguard flinched, but he made no attempt to avoid the ashtray. The ashtray hit him, causing him to stagger backward with a grunt.

“Continue investigating! It doesn’t matter how long it takes. I’m willing to wait! What are you still standing there for? Get lost!”

“Yes!” The bodyguard lowered his head, taking his leave quickly.

Ji Hanjiang exhaled heavily as he tugged off his tie in a rage. “Sh*t!”

…

Ji Hanjiang made his way to his suite in a hotel owned by the Ji Group. At that very moment, sexual desire filled the room.
