Zhang Yurong thought that after he succeeds once, he will definitely become more daring in the future, so she must take the opportunity to make him promise not to touch her again! At the same time, she thought of another problem, if she sobbed and cried, it would only make her seem weak and helpless, only feeding his arrogance! She must show her strong side!

For this, she tried hard to hold back, not letting herself sob at all, looking at Li Yan in front of her, though her tears blurred her eyes, making it difficult to see his appearance clearly.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yurong tried hard to return to a cold state, and then said without any emotion: "Mr. Li Yan, I hope you were just acting on impulse, if we are to continue maintaining our current relationship, you must adhere to two rules! First, you are not allowed to enter my room, and second, you must not touch my body in any form! Otherwise, I will definitely move out and live elsewhere!"

In fact, when she said this, she felt a bit tough but weak inside, because in their relationship, it superficially seemed like Li Yan was elevating himself but it was actually Li Yan who was giving more. At the very least, it was to satisfy her father, and not her sacrificing for his father. Rationally, she knew this, but on principle, she couldn't sacrifice herself. So, after speaking out, she could only hope Li Yan would really be as he seemed and not let things fall apart.

However, to Li Yan, this was clearly overthinking! He wasn't very clear about the previous generation's gratitude, but since he had promised, as long as both parties hadn't reached a consensus, and Zhang Tianyi hadn't recovered, he wouldn't easily get angry and leave, or use this to threaten Zhang Yurong, that would be too shameless. If he were to do that, he wouldn't wait until today. Besides, he no longer regarded Zhang Yurong as someone irrelevant, he has his feelings for her, even if he wants to win her over, it would be through his own effort and charm, not by threats.

For the first time seeing the high-and-mighty CEO wife with tear-filled eyes, the grievances of a little woman, Li Yan couldn't help but be moved, just felt like he would promise her anything she wanted, not minding so much. He immediately said, "Alright, I promise you."

Because of her tears, Zhang Yurong couldn't see his expression clearly, and it wouldn't be good to directly reach out, that would obviously show she had cried. So she quickly blinked her eyes to try to see if he was sincere or not.

"Agreeing so quickly, it must be perfunctory, what if you can't do it?"

Li Yan smiled slightly and comforted, "How about this, I'll allow you to hide scissors anywhere in the room, office, study, hallway, or living room, if I can't do it, feel free to snip me!"

"Fine! Swear it!" Although Zhang Yurong still felt his attitude was a bit playful, at least things didn't end immediately, she felt slightly relieved.

"Swear?" Li Yan hesitated for a bit, "Oaths are somewhat empty, like the vows of eternal love, they're never real..."

"You don't dare?" Zhang Yurong's vision had cleared up, she stared at Li Yan and said coldly.

Thinking for a moment, Li Yan smiled and said, "Swearing isn't impossible, but I have to add one condition!"

"Add what?" Zhang Yurong looked at him warily, feeling that in this aspect, reasoning with him was more dangerous than formal business negotiations, this guy seemed to be ready to dig holes at any time for her to fall into.

"Have you seen the movie 'Fang Shiyu' when you were young?"

"..."

What's the connection?! Zhang Yurong was speechless at his leap of thoughts.

"After the martial arts contest for marriage and the wedding night, Lei Tingting thought it was an ordinary martial arts win and served with scissors; Fang Shiyu thought it was the ugly handmaid he saw during the day pretending to be the young lady, through the red veil, one said she would never marry him, and the other said all his family would die if he did. As a result, haha...so I want to add a condition, without your permission, I won't enter your room or touch your body."

The movie with Jet Li and Li Jiaxin as the hero and beauty, Zhang Yurong had seen it too, and while listening to the scene he described, she even thought of another scene: after the wedding, they encountered a fortune-teller, and the fortune-teller said that this lady would have one son and one daughter. Fang Shiyu said, so few? The fortune-teller said, you are different, you will have two sons and two daughters. The two were very happy hearing this, and Lei Tingting even congratulated him first before realizing something was wrong.

For some reason, she associated this with herself and Li Yan, wondering if they too would be like that in the future... She cast away the unfounded associations that Li Yan led her to and snorted coldly, "Hmph! Don't worry, I will definitely not allow you!"

"Okay, then I swear, I Swear..." Li Yan threw in a phrase in English, secretly smiling, nothing is absolute, someday if you sprain your foot, let's see if you'll still not let me help you.

Even if he swore, to Zhang Yurong, it was hard to believe, but as a man, he did compromise, so she couldn't just keep pushing. She was about to let him leave when she noticed there were bloodstains on his lips and chin, looking like a vampire who just bit someone!

She was slightly startled, did I just bite him? Did I bite that hard?

Seeing that Li Yan seemed unaware, if she spoke a bit more, the blood might drip onto her bed. Yurong couldn't bear it after all, "Wipe your mouth! What's this look..."

Wipe your mouth, why does that sound so wicked?

Li Yan knew what she was referring to, he deliberately kept it like this, it's evidence, physiologically he's also a victim.

"It's fine, let it bleed a bit. By tomorrow morning, there will definitely be teeth marks, it will be swollen, and when Yue Yao sees it, she might wonder what happened between us. To spare you the embarrassment, I've decided to squeeze it later, let the blood drain from my lip, and make the wound bigger. This way, there won't be any teeth marks, and I can say I fell..."

Li Yan stood up as he spoke, "I'm a man of my word. I'll leave your room now and never step in again unless you allow it."

He spoke so quickly that Zhang Yurong had no chance to reply, and by the time she came to her senses, he had already left the room. It left her wanting to speak, but she could only hold her words back.

Letting the blood run dry, enlarging the wound to spare my awkwardness? What's the need for that?

Although she had also thought about the awkwardness in front of Yue Yao, she couldn't bear to see him worsen his wound like this. She smiled bitterly and thought to herself: What an idiot! Why didn't he just go to work before Yue Yao woke up? Why not apply some ice?

...

Yurong sat up, leaning against the headboard, her mind filled only with Li Yan's words. Despite suspecting he was just playing pitiful or deliberately hurting himself to make her feel guilty, she couldn't help but imagine him really letting the blood out. Even if it didn't cause major issues, his pale face and lips plus the wound on his lip in the morning—how could he go to work like that?

'Hmph, if seen by others, they might think he was ravished a hundred times by someone! He doesn't care, but he can't drag my reputation into it. If this relationship gets exposed in the future, wouldn't people think I did it? Or imagine something even more exaggerated? That would be absolutely humiliating...'

Zhang Yurong found an excuse for herself, then got up and left the bedroom.

When she saw Li Yan's door was tightly closed, she hesitated for a moment before going downstairs alone.

When she got downstairs, she was surprised to find the living room lights still on. As she walked over, she saw Li Yan leaning on the sofa, smoking a cigarette. The bloodstains were still on his lip, he hadn't wiped it off or applied any ice.

Yurong's footsteps halted; the vast living room had only him, a single cigarette, no TV on, no other sound, it seemed so empty and lonely...

She had always disapproved of Li Yan smoking, and most of the time, he would refrain from doing so in front of her. But now, seeing him silently smoke, she hoped the cigarette could bring him some comfort. Because, looking at his state, she empathized: Was he wrong? He merely kissed his own wife, yet not only got bitten but also had to accept unfair terms. It must be hard for a man.

But she wasn't wrong either, so she couldn't say anything.

Realizing Li Yan's gaze turned towards her, Zhang Yurong shifted her attention back and walked over.

"Why aren't you asleep? Down here hiding scissors?" Li Yan smiled as she approached, extinguishing his cigarette.

His smile made Zhang Yurong feel uncomfortable, was this a good demeanor facing her or a self-deprecating smile? Hiding scissors...

"I... was thirsty and came down to get some water..." she quickly made up a reason.

Getting water? Li Yan couldn't help but laugh. Even if she didn't have water upstairs, there was no need to come all the way down here. "Haha, this reminds me of a story, where a thirsty crow went looking for water all around..."

"Pfft! You're the crow." Zhang Yurong's trace of emotion was interrupted by him, and she immediately went to the kitchen. Her mind whispered: Are you forcing a smile, or are you just heartless?

With a touch of helplessness, she entered the kitchen, found some crushed ice, wrapped it in tape, and returned to the living room.

Li Yan was still sitting there. He hadn't lit another cigarette but had turned on the TV, though the volume was low, it at least made some noise.

"Did you really come down just to eat ice?" Seeing the ice in her hand, Li Yan broke into a sweat. There's no need to eat ice, especially when there's a human-shaped fire extinguisher here. But he couldn't voice this teasing thought.

Zhang Yurong took a few tissues, handed them along with the ice. "Wipe it off and apply some ice! Don't let anyone at the company say you're bullied at work, and bullied by me at home."

To avoid appearing concerned, she deliberately kept a straight face and spoke in a superior tone.

Applying ice would only slightly alleviate the pain and reduce the swelling. Li Yan initially came down for some ice but thought, being bitten by his wife, did he need to be so pampered? So he didn't get it, planning to finish a cigarette before going back up.

Seeing Zhang Yurong coming downstairs, he guessed her intention, and now seeing her truly coming for him, he was touched. He took it seriously without pretense.

"Listen to you! Who dares bully me at the company? My wife at home is so virtuous." — Requesting a monthly pass!
