Chapter 197 He was used to this situation for a long time
As night deepened, the lights outside the car gradually thinned, and the city's hustle and bustle faded away. Qin Reng drove the car into his yard, gently picked up Yu Yuetong, and stepped into the villa. Her body was light and graceful, like a feather, which made Qin Reng somewhat intoxicated. He turned his head to look at her carefully, but ultimately restrained the urge to delve deeper into her heart.
Back in the room, Yu Yuetong was gently placed on the bed. Her sleeping face was peaceful, as if she were in an endless dream. Smoothing her disheveled hair, Qin Reng gently tucked her in. Before leaving the room, he paused for a moment, his gaze lingering on her sleeping face.
"You're still causing trouble even when you're not inside me," Qin Reng couldn't help but whisper, as if talking to her, yet also as if talking to himself.
The night gently enveloped the room, and Qin Reng quietly left. He knew that some things needed time for her to process, just like every time they were together, a small gesture could change the course of events.
However, in the darkness, a cell phone screen lights up, and the seemingly dormant social network is quietly stirring. With the sending of a message, the tranquil family life may be about to be hit by an unknown storm. Some people don't want to see Yu Yuetong's peaceful and happy life, but rather want to gradually ignite a series of unexpected changes along the ripples.
In the quiet of the night, in a villa not far away, Qin Yu's face revealed a sly smile. He had always played the role of a gentle older cousin, and now he seemed to finally see an opportunity to shake Qin Reng's position. He raised his wine glass high, the dim light reflecting a hidden conspiracy and anticipation.
Meanwhile, at another, yet-to-be-named date, Ji Momo slammed the door shut and stormed out, shaking off the detestable Qin Yu. She was already tired of this ambiguous entanglement, and when the truth was revealed, she wanted to make her stance clear.
A new day is about to begin, and for Yue Tong and Qin Reng, every step they take in the future is destined to be extraordinary. Unexpected events are surging within them, forcing them to seek a glimmer of hope in their unavoidable interactions. But what is the reason for this?
In the quiet room, Yu Yuetong was still fast asleep, unaware that the path beneath her feet was being slowly reshaped.
The morning sunlight, like golden ribbons, gently spilled into every corner of the villa, its warmth awakening the entire room to life. Inside, Yu Yuetong felt a blinding light, and the crisp chirping of birds still lingered in her ears. She rubbed her eyes, stretched, and sat up in bed, her thoughts slowly returning to normal.
Last night's fragments gradually reverberated in her mind, like a secret she didn't want to reveal. The memory was of Qin Reng's undeniable gentleness and his silent yet steadfast support, all of which left Yu Yuetong slightly confused. When had she been treated with such care and attention?
"Good morning." Qin Reng's voice suddenly came from the doorway, interrupting her thoughts. The man was already dressed in a suit and tie, clearly having been prepared in advance.
"Good morning," Yu Yuetong replied subconsciously, feeling a slight awkwardness in her heart.
Qin Reng stepped forward, placed the breakfast he was carrying on the bedside table, and said in a relaxed tone, "There's an important meeting today, so breakfast will be simple. But I've set aside time for lunch, so we can eat together."
Yu Yuetong nodded her thanks, feeling a strong sense of familiarity and security emanating from Qin Reng, a feeling she had never experienced before. The intimacy of him lying on her back enveloped her, leaving her somewhat at a loss.
However, the invisible barrier in the air hadn't dissipated, and it seemed both sides were tentatively testing which step to take. After all, the recurring "being in a domineering CEO script" mindset in Yu Yuetong's head was still reminding her from time to time that there was some logical inconsistency here.
"I heard that someone has started a new trend today." Qin Reng raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone half-teasing.
"What style?" Yu Yuetong asked, puzzled, not quite understanding at first.
"Last night's drunken swagger," Qin Reng chuckled. "I hope those who were frightened by you were lucky enough to have such a good look."
Yu Yuetong was stunned, then immediately blushed. "I blacked out? I—what embarrassing thing did I do?"
Seeing her deflated like a punctured kitten, Qin Reng deliberately put on a stern face: "Go and repent properly."
Just as the two were chatting happily, Qin Reng's phone, which had been dormant, suddenly came back to life, its vibrating buzz breaking the tranquility. He frowned slightly, picked up the phone to check it, and a serious look instantly appeared in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Yu Yuetong asked with concern when she saw the change in his expression.
"It's nothing, just a small change at the company." Qin Reng concealed his unease, put his phone back in his pocket, and tried to remain calm.
But his mind was already in turmoil. The message, seemingly simple, was a signal secretly sent by Qin Yu, a harbinger of an impending downpour. And the unseen sharp glint in the rain pointed not only to Qin Reng's career, but also to Yu Yuetong's heart yearning for peace.
The meeting that decided everything not only concerned the future of the Qin family, but would also be a severe test in Yu Yuetong's life. After all, sometimes the storms of the outside world are not as terrifying as the inner demons.
Under the sunlight, Qin Reng perked up and said to Yue Tong in a seemingly casual tone, "Want to help me showcase this domineering CEO's wife's figure to the whole world?"
Faced with Qin Reng's rare vulnerable smile, Yu Yuetong took a deep breath and stepped forward without flinching, "Of course, I'm your most capable 'strategist,' aren't I?"
However, whether their courage can remain unbreakable in this thorny contest, just as it was last night, remains to be seen.
Sunlight streamed into the office, casting a soft glow on the sturdy black wooden conference table through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Qin Reng stood before the table, a stack of documents in his hand, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, fixed on the group of directors before him.
"President Qin, what is the rationale behind this investment?" A haughty middle-aged director raised an eyebrow and glared at Qin Reng, clearly dissatisfied with his insistence.
Qin Reng remained expressionless, casually glancing at everyone's gazes; he was used to this situation. "This is a high-risk, high-reward strategic deployment, and the company needs a more forward-looking plan."
Meanwhile, Yu Yuetong sat to the side, carefully observing the reactions of each director present. She was already accustomed to this kind of workplace competition; although her body wasn't her own, this willpower and composure made her even more determined.
Just then, the conference room door was gently pushed open, and a young and well-mannered female secretary walked in and whispered a few words in Qin Reng's ear.
"Excuse me, everyone," Qin Reng suddenly stood up and said slowly, "I have to go out to handle an urgent matter. Yue Tong will continue to chair this meeting."
