Ling Yichuan narrowed his angelic eyes and sized this woman up.

After she left yesterday morning, Ling Yichuan immediately looked for Lian Sihan and asked him to help look for her.

The night before yesterday was the annual dinner of Ling Group. All employees of Ling Group and its subsidiary companies—as long as they were in Onyx City—were invited to attend. The entire hotel was reserved for the event. For this woman to appear there, she was most likely an employee of Ling Group.

Through the surveillance video, he found Ji Liunian—she had been drunk and walked out of another room in a stupor. That room was booked by Gao Youyi.

Lian Sihan searched Ling Group’s employee records and found Gao Youyi—she was working in one of their subsidiary companies. They were about to investigate further into Gao Youyi when Ji Liunian bumped into him now!

Looking at her up close, she was very beautiful and dainty. Her black hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Liu Menghan said that she was dressed poorly. But, while the white slim-fit dress that she had gotten from the Yu family was indeed very plain-looking, it accentuated her curves wonderfully—her waist… her legs… What was especially eye-catching was her voluptuous bosom—like spectacular, mouth-watering twin peaches, ripe for the taking.

With such a hot body and equally gorgeous face—even without makeup—he wondered what she would look like if she were all made up and dressed to the nines.

Ling Yichuan was enraptured while Ji Liunian felt terrible. She had just threatened him yesterday morning and did not expect to run into him today!

She tried to break free from his restraints, but she only managed to shake his arm slightly.

Liu Menghan stood preening in front of the mirror, checking out the outfit with the sales associate. Ji Liunian was anxious—pretended not to know him at all—and blurted out, “Mister, is there something the matter?”

Ling Yichuan was taken aback when he saw her deliberate demeanor of distancing herself from him, coupled with the heartless words coming out of her small mouth.

He had always thought that although Ji Liunian was not a woman arranged by Lian Sihan, she might have been scheming enough to make her way into his bed. It was only when he saw the surveillance video and realized that she had entered the wrong room that he was puzzled. However, when he saw her struggling to break free now, he realized that she really did not want to have anything to do with him.

Before she could say anything, the female companion who had entered the store with him suddenly ran over in her high heels. Her slender hand held his arm in a threatening manner and she glared at Ji Liunian with hostility. “Adonis, who is she?”
