Wang Dahai paused in his actions, then gave a noncommittal grunt.

He had already guessed it.

Now that she admits it, he's not surprised at all, and there's no fluctuation in his heart.

"Dahai, do you mind a lot?" she asked with some concern.

"No, I don't."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Don't tell Bai Ruyi about this matter."

"Mmm, I won't tell."

Wang Dahai suddenly asked, "When did it happen?"

"Not many days ago."

"Only once?"

Liu Lin wasn't accustomed to being interrogated like this, it made her feel very uncomfortable, as if she were laying bare her most shameful secret for dissection.

"These few days, I've been going to the hotel," she said softly.

"Oh."

Wang Dahai said, "Mr. Liu keeps in good shape, I see him exercising frequently. Mrs. Liu must be quite comfortable, right?"

Upon hearing this Liu Lin suddenly sat up from the bed.

She looked at Wang Dahai angrily and pointed to the door, "Get out!"

Wang Dahai was taken aback for a moment, realizing that his words had crossed a line.

"Mrs. Liu, I didn't mean it like that."

"Get out, I don't want to see you!"

She was very angry, shaking slightly, her eyes beginning to redden. It was evident that her emotions had reached a breaking point.

Wang Dahai opened his mouth, wanting to apologize, but judging from her current state, she probably wouldn't listen.

He nodded his head, said nothing more, and left the room.

Soon afterward, the sound of the door closing could be heard.

Liu Lin sat on the bed, deflated like a punctured ball.

She knew Wang Dahai harbored resentment, so she answered all his interrogative questions.

She even revealed the most shameful side of herself to him.

But he had said things that were so hurtful.

...

Wang Dahai, on the other hand, wasn't in the mood to think about these things, because Wu Qiangwei asked him to come back.

She was experiencing menstrual cramps again.

When he arrived at Wu Qiangwei's house, he saw her curled up on the sofa, her face pale.

He washed his hands, then went to massage her abdomen.

After a while, her pain subsided.

"Drinking so much when you still have your period, who else is gonna hurt if not you?"

Wang Dahai withdrew his hand and said, "Be more careful when you have your period next time. Don't be reckless."

Wu Qiangwei frowned and said, "Mind your own business, I don't need you to lecture me."

"Heh."

"Hmph!"

Wu Qiangwei couldn't stand his attitude, and Wang Dahai couldn't stand hers either.

What was once a fine atmosphere had suddenly turned stiff.

Wang Dahai went to wash his hands and saw Wu Qiangwei heading to her room, thinking to himself that this woman would probably never change her temper.

Simply doesn't listen to any advice.

When he finished washing his hands, Wu Qiangwei came out of the room again, now holding a shopping bag.

She threw the shopping bag at his feet and went back to the room without a word.

Wang Dahai looked down, the bag contained clothes.

"What's this about?"

He picked up the shopping bag and examined the clothes: men's clothing it was.

Shirts, pants, pajamas, even underwear.

"For me?"

His expression turned more peculiar.

Why would she suddenly buy me clothes?

He took the shopping bag and pushed open the door, ready to ask her about it.

He just happened to see Wu Qiangwei taking off her pajamas, preparing to go to bed.

"Who let you in!"

Wu Qiangwei quickly covered herself and hurled a pillow at him.

Wang Dahai quickly closed the door, and after a while, he knocked.

No matter how much he knocked, Wu Qiangwei wouldn't speak.

He wasn't in a hurry, just knocked slowly, persistently.

Eventually, Wu Qiangwei couldn't stand the annoyance and yelled, "Come in!"

Pushing open the door, Wang Dahai stood there without entering, cautiously stealing a glance.

She had already burrowed into the bed, wrapping herself up like a zongzi (rice dumpling).

Wang Dahai lifted the shopping bag in his hand and asked, "What's this?"

"Are you blind?"

"..."

He decided not to argue.

"Is it for me?"

"It's for the dog!"

She was very angry.

The bastard entered the room without knocking and saw her naked.

Wang Dahai put down the shopping bag and said, "I have clothes to wear."

After speaking, he turned around and walked away.

"Come back!"

"What for?"

"Take the clothes with you!"

"I have clothes."

"What clothes do you have? Did you bring underwear? Did you bring a change of clothes?"

"I... didn't bring any."

"Hmph! Don't you dare get on my bed without changing into clean clothes!"

Wang Dahai felt somewhat caught between a rock and a hard place; he didn't want to owe Wu Qiangwei any favors.

And the clothes she bought clearly weren't cheap.

But since Wu Qiangwei had already purchased them, his refusal would be pointless.

Suddenly he said, "Miss Wu, are you trying to keep me as a kept man?"

This question baffled Wu Qiangwei completely.

"Get out!"

"I'm going."

"And take the clothes with you!"

Fine then.

Wang Dahai picked up the clothes and closed the door behind him.

He wasn't going to play hard to get; the clothes were bought, what good would it do to return them?

He consoled himself, considering it compensation for the time he had spent driving her around.

After showering, he changed into clean underwear and pajama pants.

When he returned to the room, Wang Dahai leaned back on the bed and glanced at the time; it was just after eight in the evening.

He opened Bai Ruyi's profile, "Has your best friend left?"

Bai Ruyi replied promptly, "She's lying next to me."

"How about we go watch a movie tomorrow, the weekend?"

Wang Dahai felt a bit anxious; if her best friend hadn't left, would she be able to come out?

"Wait for me a moment."

A few minutes later, Bai Ruyi said, "Wait for my call tomorrow."

Did that mean there was a chance?

Wang Dahai suddenly remembered that the suit Bai Ruyi had given him was still at the dry cleaner's, and he decided to pick it up first thing in the morning.

No matter whether she could come out tomorrow, he had to be prepared.

This time there could be no mistakes.

"Squeak."

The door suddenly opened, and Wang Dahai looked up to see Wu Qiangwei standing in the doorway wearing pajamas.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "Why don't you knock?"

"...This is my house."

"What about your house? You let me stay here, so I have the right to use this room for now."

Knowing she was at a disadvantage, Wu Qiangwei replied, "I got it."

Wang Dahai didn't press the issue and asked, "Are you having menstrual cramps again?"

"No."

No?

Then what was she doing here?

Could it be...

Unhealthy thoughts began popping into Wang Dahai's mind.

Seeing his eyes dart around, Wu Qiangwei could guess what he was thinking even without asking, feeling somewhat angry.

This bastard, always thinking about all sorts of nonsense!

"Go downstairs and fetch something for me."

"What is it?"

"Something for work," Wu Qiangwei frowned slightly, apparently unaccustomed to Wang Dahai's probing manner.

"Just downstairs?"

"Yes, the person is downstairs."

"Why don't you have him come up directly?"

"Are you annoying!" Wu Qiangwei lost her patience, "Will you go or not? If not, forget it!"

"You're quite impatient when asking for help."

Wang Dahai shook his head, flipped the covers off, and got out of bed.

Seeing his muscular body clad only in underwear, Wu Qiangwei turned her head slightly away.

After he dressed, Wang Dahai opened the door and left.

When he came out of the elevator, he saw a scholarly and handsome man in his thirties with glasses standing in the lobby of the apartment building.

The man was also holding a file in his hand.

"Hello, are you here to deliver something for Miss Wu?" Wang Dahai went up and asked.

The man with glasses turned to focus on him, his eyebrows slightly raised, smiling as he said, "Hello."

Then, looking into his eyes, he suddenly asked, "Did you come from Director Wu's place?"

Wang Dahai's expression froze, and he quickly realized that he had come out of the elevator.

This person was an employee of Wu Qiangwei's company, and if he found out...

The man's gaze held a subtle pressure as he continued to ask, "How come you're at Director Wu's place?"
