“There’s no rush, but I’m afraid I’ll delay your work.” She smiled guiltily.
Ji Shiting paused and said, “Are you afraid of delaying my work or your work?”
“Um…” Ye Shengge was stumped.” Both. Producer Chu told me that he couldn’t find an actress more suitable than me, so I’m the only one who’s suitable for the role.”
“Oh, is that so?” He smiled.
Ye Shengge nodded and said with a sincere expression, “Really. I saw how anxious he was, so I agreed. Are you mad?”
“Who told me that she hopes these days will last forever, huh?” The man stared at her.
“That’s what I want, but life doesn’t allow it.” She sighed.
Ji Shiting was amused and said, “I won’t be mad if you make me happy.”
Ye Shengge blinked and touched his well-defined chest.

Ye Shengge snorted and reached under the water. Before long, the man’s breathing became irregular.
…
Two days later.
Jiang Yu was handing over his work to Officer Liu.
The murderer was officially indicted. Although the court trial hadn’t started yet, there wouldn’t be any accidents. His work here was over, and he could return to Beijing anytime.
Jing Tong came looking for him again.
“Are you going back, Jiang Yu?” Her eyes were shining. “I’ll go with you.”
Jiang Yu said coldly, “Didn’t you promise not to pester me anymore?”
“I’m not bothering you. I just want to get a free ride in your plane.” Jing Tong snorted. “We’re friends, right? Can’t I talk to you anymore?”
Jiang Yu looked at her and said, “I won’t be taking a private plane.”
“Then let’s take the same flight. We can take care of each other.”
“…” Jiang Yu tried to suppress his emotions. “I don’t want to be with you.”
Jing Tong’s eyes dimmed, but she still smiled.
“Tch, do you think I want to be with you? If I have friends here, I wouldn’t have bothered with you.”
The girl then turned around and left.
Jiang Yu watched her leave and hesitated for a bit before saying, “Jing Tong.”
Jing Tong immediately turned around and lifted her chin reservedly. “What’s the matter?”
Jiang Yu asked, “Do you know what your father has been doing lately?”
“Huh?” Jing Tong hesitated for a bit and said. “He’s busy with his work. I don’t know exactly what he’s doing.”
Jiang Yu frowned and said, “Remember to tell me if your father does anything unusual.”
“Why?” Jing Tong was furious. “I won’t divulge my father’s secret to you!”
Jiang Yu knew that Jing Tong’s mother had passed away, and Jing Zhiyuan doted on his daughter. They had always been close.
Thus, he chose not to reveal his guess and said, “Forget it. Be careful.”
“You care about me, eh?” The girl moved closer and said in a mysterious tone.
Jiang Yu’s face turned cold again.
…
When Jiang Yu and Jing Tong left Yang City, Ji Shiting and Ye Shengge returned to Qianfan Villa from the resort.
