The room that was crowded and chaotic a second ago suddenly became quiet. Knowing that the man in the bathroom was Ruan Zeyan, Ling Tianya’s heart fell back in place. Only a second later, her heart was suspended in the air again.
How did Ruan Zeyan appear there? Hadn’t he gone abroad? He should be handling important business overseas, how come he was there instead?
“…Why are you here?” Ling Tianya had just woken up and her voice was still soft and tender even after the whole ordeal.
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes cooled down. A voice like Ling Tianya’s would have an unimaginable effect on any other man.
Glanced at the woman coldly, Ruan Zeyan didn’t say a word, only chilled air came off his body.
Ling Tianya blinked her eyes at Ruan Zeyan. “Is he angry again?”
Ruan Zeyan closed the door of the room and walked near the bed. Ling Tianya thought he was going to say something. Unexpectedly, the man took off his bathrobe and his delicate and sexy body was exposed in front of Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya’s eyes opened wide and her face turned beet red. Thank god that the man had underwear on, but even so the impressive physique still made Ling Tianya blush.
After taking off the bathrobe, Ruan Zeyan started to pick up his clothes from the floor and put them back on one by one.
Ling Tianya watched Ruan Zeyan putting on clothes and looked at her own pajamas.
Ruan Zeyan had just taken a shower in the bathroom and she was wearing her pajamas. Did he arrive that night? In other words, did he change her into pajamas?
Subconsciously, Ling Tianya covered her chest. Did Ruan Zeyan do something to her?
What an animal, taking advantage of someone!
Seeing that Ling Tianya looked like she was forced by him, Ruan Zeyan’s face was dark. Maybe he should not have gone easy on her that night. He should have really tortured her, just for the sake of that expression of hers!
Ruan Zeyan got fully dressed and sat down on the sofa opposite the bed. His eyes were beaming cold lights. “I only changed your clothes.” The implication was that he didn’t do anything else.
Ling Tianya exhaled in relief and put her hands down from her chest. She didn’t know that that move disturbed Ruan Zeyan even more.
He took a deep breath and said, “What did I say?”
Ling Tianya was taken aback and knew immediately what Ruan Zeyan meant.
Sure enough, the man sent someone to follow her after all!
Ling Tianya grunted, “Do not accept drinks from men… but I had to do it last night, otherwise my plan would be…”
Ruan Zeyan’s eyes were cold, he looked at Ling Tianya with an ambiguous smile. “So, knowing the drink was spiked, you still drank it?”
Ling Tianya nodded. The room fell in silence.
A moment later, Ruan Zeyan finally exploded, “Ling Tianya, you think you’re so smart, what were you going to do if something went wrong last night?”
Ling Tianya did not think about it because she felt that her plan was very good, and nothing would go wrong. She did not expect the cocktail spiked by Li Chenfeng to be so strong that she would pass out half way back to the room.
Suddenly, Ling Tianya remembered that she was picked up by someone before she completely passed out. She was also holding onto a big ice cube and licked it for a long time, but instead of quenching her thirst it made her hotter and hotter. She even asked Zhang Ke to change the ice cube.
Thinking back on it, Ling Tianya was having cold sweats. She raised her head and looked at the man sitting on the sofa who had bags under his eyes. It was obvious that he didn’t sleep well. Ling Tianya swallowed subconsciously.
The ice cube she was licking last night, was Ruan Zeyan…

Ling Tianya’s head spun, but it wasn’t due to the drugs, it was entirely psychological.
If the piece of ice that she had bitten and licked at yesterday really was Ruan Zeyan, then it would be absolutely terrifying.
Ruan Zeyan sat on the sofa, picking up his watch that was on the coffee table. Just as he pitched forward, Ling Tianya was shocked to notice the huge patch of purple on Ruan Zeyan’s neck.
When Ruan Zeyan was dressing himself earlier, Ling Tianya’s brain was so busily trying to process what was going on that she had completely looked over the mark on his neck.
That mark was exuding its sexy allure, Ling Tianya’s face flushed red. That kind of intimate mark wouldn’t show up on Ruan Zeyan’s neck for no absolutely reason. It was a massive hickey, it wouldn’t show up just from an innocent or gentle kiss.
The only reasonable explanation for it was what Ling Tianya’s licking and biting had done!
Right then, Ling Tianya’s heart screamed in despair, howling its horror, tumbling in turbulence!
“That…On your neck…”
With his watch on, Ruan Zeyan looked back up, his words calm, “Your handy work.”
“Oh, dear lord!” Even though she knew that it could only have been her work, hearing the affirmation right from Ruan Zeyan’s mouth, Ling Tianya felt absolutely mortified. “I uh, I have some concealer and foundation, do you want to cover it up?” Ling Tianya asked with her face as red as a tomato. With Zhang Li and the lady charging in there with reporters, the moment the news got out, everyone would know that she had spent the night with Ruan Zeyan there. If he walked out with such a huge hickey into the public’s eye, she would most definitely lose all her dignity!
Besides, Ruan Zeyan was a famous man, he should consider his own image too, he should want to hide the mark.
Surprisingly, the man looked at her mockingly, before deciding, “It’s alright.”
“Alright?!” Ling Tianya was literally about to blow a fuse, did she hear wrongly? Did Ruan Zeyan say that it was alright?!
The doorbell rang, and Zhang Ke’s voice flitted through the gaps. “Miss Ling, it’s me.”
Ling Tianya hurried off the bed to open the door, and Zhang Ke timidly peeped past her into the room. “Miss Ling, are you alright?”
“Zhang Ke, do you know what happened last night? Didn’t I ask you to arrange for someone to watch after me? Why is Ruan Zeyan here?!”
Zhang Ke scratched her head, thinking about how Ling Tianya had tightly hugged onto and licked Mr. Ruan with her eyes closed last night, her troubled expression when she looked at Ling Tianya sufficiently explained everything.
“I followed your orders last night initially, hiring two people from a local martial arts gym to protect you from a distance, and they followed you up to the 15th floor after you drank the spiked drink. As I brought people up to the 15th floor, I saw Mr. Ruan carrying you into the room. Miss Ling, you were hugging Mr. Ruan, licking and biting at his neck. After some time, you felt uncomfortable, but you deliriously asked me to change a block of ice for you…”
Recalling Ruan Zeyan’s deathly expression, a shiver ran up Zhang Ke’s spine.
Ling Tianya wanted to disappear, and she palmed her forehead for support.
Zhang Ke peeked at Ruan Zeyan who was sitting on the sofa carefully. “Initially, I wanted to stay behind to take care of you, but Mr. Ruan said he would stay instead, so I was monitoring 1505’s situation.” Zhang Ke lowered her volume to a murmur. “Miss Ling, he didn’t violate you in any way, right?”
Ling Tianya shook her head. Even if he did, with how out of it she was yesterday, she wouldn’t have known either.
Thinking back, Ruan Zeyan’s words weren’t absolutely baseless. Her plan did have loopholes in it. In order to make Li Chenfeng put down his defenses, she had to drink that cocktail. When she was unconscious, that meant putting the control into another person’s hands, and becoming passive. If something changed, or deviated from their expectations, she would be in danger.
