"Open, open the door?"

Wang Dahai broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

He quickly said, "Ahem, I was just joking. And Sister-in-law is still at home."

"Do you not want a reward?"

"Save it for later."

"Hehe, don't wait too long."

"Then forget about it," Wang Dahai said. "I'm quite tired running around this late at night, Director Wu should get some sleep early."

"Mhm."

Wu Qiangwei put down her phone, looking at the already sleeping Lin Wanqiu beside her, she felt a bit scared thinking about what she had impulsively said just now.

Luckily, Wang Dahai did not agree.

Otherwise, would she really have gone over?

With Lin Wanqiu and Zhao Xue at home.

If they discovered her, she didn't know how she would face them.

Wang Dahai was also frightened afterwards.

Looking at Zhao Xue's little face in a daze, making nonsensical noises.

If Wu Qiangwei found out, he didn't even dare to think about the consequences.

"Ah~"

Zhao Xue's voice suddenly rose, scaring Wang Dahai who quickly cradled her little face and covered her mouth.

...

The next day.

Noon.

Wang Dahai came out of Ning Mei's place and received a message from Zhang Yue as he reached the staircase landing.

"Wang, Mr. Hu is pressing me."

Hu Quan?

Wang Dahai frowned; he had almost overlooked this.

Even though he had taken care of Zhang Yue, Hu Quan was one to check on progress.

If he kept dragging his feet, Hu Quan would definitely think of another approach.

Thinking it over, Wang Dahai said, "Tell him I've set up a noon rendezvous to book a room with you."

"Really?"

"What's real or fake?"

"Are we really going to book a room?"

"Nonsense, how can we fool him without booking a room?"

"Alright then."

Looking at the message, Wang Dahai felt a bit weird.

Why did it seem like this woman was actually happy about it?

"Wang, I told Mr. Hu, and he's asking me which hotel."

"Tell him I haven't decided yet."

"Okay."

As lunch break approached, the two of them came out together for a meal.

After lunch, Zhang Yue said, "Wang, which hotel shall we go to?"

Wang Dahai looked around and led her to a nearby hotel.

After opening an hourly room, the two walked into the room.

Wang Dahai said, "From now on, don't reply to any messages he sends; after work, tell him that as soon as I came in, I started on you and you didn't have a chance to reply."

"Mhm."

Zhang Yue shyly said, "Then, when will you start on me?"

Wang Dahai had an odd look in his eye, and as Zhang Yue grew more bashful, lowering her head, her hand stealthily reached over.

The corner of Wang Dahai's eye twitched.

This woman, did she want to turn the fake act into a real one?

Wang Dahai took a deep breath and pushed her down onto the bed in one swift motion.

His initiative was like a signal to her, and she became even more proactive than him, tearing at his clothes.

Moments later, they were exposed to each other.

At the moment of their union, Zhang Yue issued a joyous and lovely sound.

After their intimate encounter, Zhang Yue lay beside him, contently saying, "Wang, you're really amazing."

"Hehe."

Wang Dahai looked at the time, it was still early.

After resting for a while, the two left the hotel.

After work, Zhang Yue reported back to Hu Quan.

Looking at Zhang Yue's report, Hu Quan smiled slightly.

He finally took the bait!

"Spend more time with him during this period, and then find an opportunity to invite him to your house."

"Mhmm."

Zhang Yue was now even more invested in this matter than Hu Quan.

...

"Dahai, aren't you at work?"

Wang Dahai sat in his car, chatting with Bai Ruyi and occasionally dealing with Vivi.

Suddenly, Jiang Rou sent him a message.

Ever since he had met Jiang Rou's mother last time, the frequency of their communication had substantially decreased.

It wasn't that he was deliberately avoiding her, but rather that Jiang Rou seldom reached out to him.

Sometimes he felt that even though he was Jiang Rou's boyfriend, he seemed more like a regular friend.

Aside from the time they lived together at Lin Wanqiu's place, which was relatively intimate, afterwards they hardly saw each other once a week.

Wang Dahai had always said he wanted to move in, but then he never brought it up again.

Because Jiang Rou hadn't mentioned it again, he didn't have the nerve to bring it up either.

"I'm at work," Wang Dahai replied.

"Ah? But I don't see you."

Wang Dahai was puzzled: "Where are you?"

"At the yoga studio."

"...I have another job now, I occasionally go to the yoga studio."

He hadn't had the chance to tell Jiang Rou about this.

Wang Dahai asked, "What do you need me for?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to see you."

"You're not working this afternoon?"

"I took the day off."

"Then wait for me a moment."

Half an hour later, he arrived at the yoga studio and saw Jiang Rou standing outside the store, looking prim and proper.

She was wearing a white blouse and a hip-hugging skirt, clearly she had come straight here without changing after her shift ended in the morning.

Wang Dahai pulled over on his motorcycle, removed his helmet.

"Wow, is this motorcycle yours?"

"It's provided by the company." Wang Dahai asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet."

"Get on."

"Mhm."

Jiang Rou straddled the bike, but her hip-hugging skirt was slightly revealing.

She leaned close to Wang Dahai, her beautiful legs enclosing him, thereby covering any parts that might be exposed.

Wang Dahai took her to a nearby restaurant.

After ordering a few dishes, Wang Dahai accompanied her for the meal.

"Has your mom left?"

"Yeah, she left a couple days ago."

Jiang Rou's expression was a bit unnatural as she said, "Dahai, don't take my mom's words to heart; that's just the way she is."

"I'm not bothered by it."

Wang Dahai said with a smile, "But Mrs. Li has a point. When it comes to marriage, having a car and a house is a must. After all, the cost of living in a big city is quite high."

Jiang Rou made a noise of agreement, then asked, "Dahai, have you ever thought about buying a house?"

"I've thought about it, but the housing prices are too high, I can't afford to buy."

His current income was quite good, but he wasn't sure how long he could hold on to his job as a driver and bodyguard.

Nowadays, an apartment easily cost millions, and even a thirty percent down payment would be three to four hundred thousand.

He truly didn't have that kind of money.

Jiang Rou asked, "Are you still living at your sister-in-law's place?"

Wang Dahai shook his head: "I've been looking for a place recently."

"Oh."

Jiang Rou lowered her head and went on eating.

Seeing this, Wang Dahai smiled.

Jiang Rou once said that in a few months, she wanted him to move out so they could live together.

For that reason, she even rented a place for them.

But now, knowing that Wang Dahai was looking for a place, she didn't bring it up again.

Wang Dahai sighed inwardly.

People do change.

Perhaps Jiang Rou did truly like him, but her affection seemed fragile faced with reality, hardly worth mentioning.

After leaving the restaurant, Wang Dahai rode his motorcycle to drop her off at the entrance to her housing complex.

Jiang Rou took off the helmet, hesitated, and looked at him, as if wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Wang Dahai smiled and said, "Do you have something you want to tell me?"

"Yeah."

"Go ahead."

Wang Dahai actually guessed that she might be looking to break up with him.

From the reduced frequency of their contacts over this period, he had already sensed it and was emotionally prepared.

The thought of being dumped by the same woman twice suddenly struck him as funny.

Jiang Rou hesitated for a long time before speaking, and when she did, her words surprised Wang Dahai.

"I've rented out the other room. Dahai, come live with me."
