Gong Yan looked at her solemn expression, and his deep eyes darkened a little, "Pei Luoyi?"

Pei Luoyi regained her senses and calmly removed his hand from her chin. With a calm voice, she said, "I'm fine. Let's talk about this later."

She glanced at the woman who was standing uneasily at the end of the table, "You still have things to take care of, do what you need to do first. I'll go back to my room to sleep for a while, call me when I'm better."

Gong Yan grabbed the woman who was about to leave with a displeased look in his eyes, "You haven't finished the congee. After you finish the congee, I'll have a few words with her."

He looked down at the spoon that had fallen on the carpet and said, "I'll have them send a clean spoon over."

She shook her head, "No need, I'm full."

Even if she hadn't eaten her fill, she didn't have the mood or appetite right now.

She pursed her lips, but didn't insist. She only pulled her back to the sofa and sat beside her.

Pei Luoyi did not resist and lightly closed her eyes. She obediently leaned against his shoulder, her long hair falling down from the side of her face, covering most of her expression.

The man's cold gaze once again fell on the woman who had a face full of hesitation.

A pair of eyes met his gaze, and the woman's taut nerves seemed to break in an instant. A mournful look appeared in her eyes. Master Gong, I beg of you, I beg of you, take into consideration that it's not easy for a woman like me to take care of a child, please step aside. I do not wish to continue working at the Gong Family, I only wish that you do not kick me out of Cloud City. "

"For the sake of the child?" The man said indifferently. His indifferent eyes glanced at her emotionlessly. "If you really have such a deep affection for your son, I can consider it."

"Wh …" "What do you mean?"

The woman looked at him, not knowing what to do. Then she heard the man say coldly, "Assistant Han, with your business ability, if you want me to raise my salary, I won't refuse, and I also believe that your ability is enough for me to ignore some of your flaws. Even if you use my name to hook up with a married man and become Liu's private honey, I still won't blame you."

"But I didn't expect you to be stupid enough to do such a thing. You can stand here today and have the chance to explain yourself, but that's only because the stupid thing you did didn't create an irreparable situation. Otherwise, do you think you could still stand here and beg me?"

The woman's delicate face was pale and bloodless after hearing what he said. Surprise and fear flashed across her eyes one after another. One could even see the slight tremble of her body.

"Palace..." "CEO Gong …"

The woman opened her mouth to say something.

The impatience on Gong Yan Jun's face was already at its peak, his eyes revealed a malevolence, his voice was low to the extreme, "You want me to invite you, or do you want the bodyguards to come in and take you out?"

The woman's face turned even paler. She bit her lower lip and stood there hesitating for a moment. In the end, she turned around and left as if she had lost her soul.

From beginning to end, Pei Luoyi had quietly leaned into his embrace, so quiet that it seemed as if she had fallen asleep.

Gong Yan looked down and saw that she wasn't actually sleeping. Her eyelids drooped down as her gaze landed on a certain spot. Her entire face revealed her depressed mood.

He touched it with his finger and whispered, "Should I send you back to sleep?"

Pei Luoyi's long, curling eyelashes twitched. The frozen scene before her seemed to come to life once again. She raised her eyes and met his gaze, nodding her head.

To be honest, what she wanted to do the most right now was not to go back to the Thousand Islands to sleep. That complex feeling in her chest needed an outlet to relieve it, she wanted to question it and vent it out.

However, she was physically and mentally exhausted. She had just experienced something like that last night. The scene was still fresh in her mind. She wasn't Superman, so she couldn't instantly recover her HP. Furthermore, she had been tortured by a man for an entire night.

It was a complete explanation of the meaning of the word exhaustion.

Furthermore, even if she wanted to go and settle the score now, it was unlikely that a man would stick to her.

Recuperating and storing energy... No rush.

Back to the Thousand Islands Manor.

The man carried her from the car in a daze and went upstairs to his bedroom.

The moment her head touched the pillow, she woke up. It was really because the smell of a man on the bed was too unique and thick.

Not that she was rejecting him, even smelling his scent, she would instinctively feel at ease.

"What's wrong?" Gong Yan watched as her eyelids opened a bit. The focus in his eyes wandered around the room before he reached out to help her pull the blanket over her.

"I'm going back to the guest room to sleep." She looked as if she was about to close her sleepy eyes and say, "I'm going back to the guest bedroom to sleep."

As she spoke, she lifted the blanket that the man had just put over himself, and her tender white feet were about to get off the bed.

His gaze turned cold, and he pressed her back onto the bed without hesitation, covering her with the blanket and reprimanding her in a low voice, "Sleeping your sleep, didn't you feel so sleepy that you could have fallen asleep while standing? "What are you doing now?"

Pei Luoyi was unwilling to forgive him, and wanted to force her way out of the tight blanket. "I'm not sleeping here …" Gong Yan, I'm so sleepy, let me go back. "

Gong Yan gazed deeply at her, as if he was trying to see through her face to see what was on her mind. His long and deep eyes slightly narrowed.

He remembered that she had slept on this bed several times before, but she had not shown any signs of resistance. Even when she woke up, there had not been any abnormalities, which was enough to show that she actually did not hate to sleep on this bed.

For what?

The man's gaze wavered slightly. It couldn't possibly be because of what had happened last night.

However, he did not know that his line of thought was not wrong. Rather, he could not understand the workings of a woman's mind.

Indeed, Pei Luoyi did not hate sleeping in his bed, but … What had happened last night, as well as the news that she had just received today, she needed to sort them out one by one. However, in the blink of an eye, she had no way to understand so much.

It was true that their relationship had changed something, but what could it mean? It happened under special circumstances, not when the two were in a mutual love relationship …

She needed time to think it over. Even though this sudden change in time had improved their relationship, she still hoped that the tempo would slow down.

Perhaps at the beginning, Gong Yan didn't understand what she was thinking, but after half a minute of silence, with his high intelligence, it wasn't hard to guess.

He bent down to look at the woman's dazed look. He really wanted to pinch her to death, and his cold voice sounded like she was saying, "Pei Luoyi, last night when you called my name from below, you were much more honest than I am now. You and I both did what we shouldn't have done last night, so what is there to argue about? "Hmm?"
