Cry louder, I can't hear you.

Yun Qiao originally thought that since Shen Suwei was rarely home tonight, she could find an opportunity to go to his room and do some strategy tasks.

But plans don't always go as expected. She went back to her room, took a shower, and went to bed without even drying her hair.

She dreamed all night.

The dream was strange; something kept rubbing her hands and feet. First, she smelled a medicinal scent, and then the familiar scent of pine grew stronger and stronger, filling all the air around her.

She was short of breath and couldn't breathe properly. She wanted to move, but her hands and feet were bound and she couldn't move at all.

She felt sticky all over, with a slippery sensation sliding across her face, neck, and collarbone. Even the area below her collarbone was being vigorously kneaded, accompanied by a slight stinging pain. All night long, she could hear heavy, rapid breathing in her ear...

When she woke up again, she gasped for breath, her heart pounding rapidly.

It was already bright outside.

She glanced at the clock on the bedside table. Good, it was already nine o'clock.

On my second day at work, I was late again.

She stopped struggling, gave up, and gave up.

She lay in bed in a daze for a while before she started to move.

But as soon as I moved, I felt sore all over, as if I had been crushed by something.

Especially the wrists and abdomen.

She moved awkwardly on the bed, finally managing to get off by rolling over onto her stomach.

My arms were still shaking while I was brushing my teeth.

Damn it, this exercise is awful. Nobody can get her to go to the gym anymore!

Yun Qiao cursed under her breath.

When I finished getting ready and went downstairs...

I originally thought no one was home anymore.

Unexpectedly, as I walked out of the restaurant, I ran into Shen Suwei.

Yun Qiao asked in surprise, "You haven't started work yet?"

Shen Suwei's gaze swept over her, but instead of his usual sharp tongue or retorts, he simply said:

"Come over for dinner, I'll ride in your car later."

His tone was incredibly self-righteous.

Anyone who didn't know better would think that Yunqiao's car belonged to him.

Yun Qiao had a million things she wanted to say to him in her heart, but when it came to the last word, she chickened out and forced a smile: "Okay."

Shen Su glanced at her with a dangerous look, taking in her unspoken thoughts, but said nothing.

As if venting her anger, Yun Qiao drank a large bowl of porridge and ate some other things.

It was already 9:30 when I went out with Shen Suwei.

She had no idea that Shen Suwei had come to the company for two consecutive nights, and everyone in the company who usually dealt with him and had contact with him was going crazy with curiosity.

But no one dared to ask him. In the end, Amy couldn't resist her curiosity and ran over to ask Yunqiao for information.

But as soon as she got close to Yun Qiao, she couldn't help but cover her nose. "Where have you been? You smell like medicine."

"medicine?"

Yun Qiao was surprised and raised her hand to smell it herself.

She didn't smell it.

"It's not very heavy, just a little bit."

Yun Qiao was suspicious, recalling the dream she had last night.

[System,] she hurriedly summoned the system in her mind, [Did anything happen after I fell asleep last night?]

The Shen residence actually had quite a lot of people, with dozens of servants, both men and women.

Could it be that a thief really broke into her room last night...?

"Nothing happened, what's wrong, host?"

[After I fell asleep, did any strange people enter my room?]

If some strange person had actually entered, would you still be standing here unharmed?

Yun Qiao thought about it and agreed.

But I just asked you, what were you hesitating about?

System: [...I'm testing it.]

That reason is hard to refute.

However, this system is a bit unethical. It often deliberately hides things from her, whether it's due to so-called rules that prevent her from saying them, or it's purely malicious.

Yunqiao felt she was really unlucky.

Other people's systems are like comrades-in-arms who share hardships, but her system always makes her feel like it's playing tricks on her. Many of the tasks it assigns her seem to be just waiting for her to embarrass herself or fail.

At first, she was told to do the "villainous female supporting character" mission, and that she could go home once she accumulated 9999 points.

It took her five whole years to accumulate enough points.

Finally, I only need a few dozen more points to go home.

It suddenly changed the mission, saying it was to win over Shen Suwei.

This remains an impossible task.

It seems that from the moment this task was assigned, it, or rather they, had been waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"Yunqiao, what are you thinking about?"

Amy's voice pulled Yunqiao back to reality. She looked at Yunqiao with a puzzled expression. "You don't look well."

"It's probably because the weather has been too hot lately."

"By the way, do you know why Mr. Shen has been so late for work lately?"

Yun Qiao paused slightly; she was actually quite curious herself.

Although she didn't know, Yunqiao thought of the painful hour last night and his words in the car this morning, "Her body is too weak, let's continue tonight," and she made a decisive decision to smear him!

"Actually, I had a vague idea."

Upon hearing this, Amy's eyes lit up instantly. "Why?"

Yun Qiao glanced around cautiously and lowered her voice, "Don't tell anyone that I told you."

"I definitely won't tell!"

"To be honest, I'm very sad," Yun Qiao sighed, her expression somber. "I originally thought Mr. Shen was the kind of upright and refined person, but I never imagined that all men are the same. I've already lost all my illusions about him..."

"So, what exactly happened?"

Amy was getting really anxious because of what she said.

Yun Qiao lowered her voice even further, "President Shen may have been captivated by the allure of women and has forgotten all about returning to the company."

"what?"

Amy was startled and instinctively retorted, "That's impossible. President Shen doesn't seem like that kind of person."

He said this with exceptional conviction.

Yun Qiao choked, "How do you know it's impossible?"

"I've been with this company for five years, and in those five years I've never seen President Shen with any woman by his side. How could he possibly be the kind of person who gets caught up in a woman's charms?"

"But he's a man after all, almost twenty-eight. How could he not have any needs? Either he's impotent, or he has a side that no one knows about."

"What evidence do you have to support your claim about President Shen?"

Yun Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for her to ask.

"I saw a lipstick mark on the chest of Mr. Shen's shirt this morning."

"A lip print?!"

Amy was genuinely surprised this time.

"Really?"

"You can go and see for yourself."

This morning, when she got off the bus, she deliberately fell on him and rubbed against him.

Shen Suwei didn't notice anything.

They probably thought she was too tired from exercising last night.

Yun Qiao had just raised the corners of her mouth in a smug smile when her gaze inadvertently turned to the side.

The smile froze on his face.

Shen Suwei was standing at the door of her office at some point, and she didn't know how long he had been listening. At this moment, he was looking at her meaningfully.

His expression revealed no emotion, yet it inexplicably sent chills down one's spine.
