Yue Linze had anticipated her surrender but didn’t expect her final line to be about food… Too cute. He couldn’t bear to bully her.
Suppressing his laughter, he took the flowers from her while she was distracted and walked to the trash can, casually throwing them away.
“You’re still under contract. You only need to consider my feelings. Other men’s emotions aren’t worth your consideration,” he said. Cute as she was, the rules still needed to be taught.
Tao Yu, afraid he might throw her out into the loan sharks’ hands, agreed to whatever he said, wanting him to leave quickly. Seeing her absent-minded state, Yue Linze knew she hadn’t listened much. He stepped forward, grabbed her chin, and kissed her.
The kiss was brief as a dragonfly touching water. Before Tao Yu could react, Yue Linze had stepped back three paces, his eyes filled with rising desire: “Seems I’ve overestimated my patience. I’ll need to speed things up.”
He turned and left. Tao Yu stood frozen for a long time, eventually touching her kissed lips, suddenly surrounded by a sense of crisis. She ran to the equipment room, face bright red, telling the repair staff: “Hurry up and repair. Finish in three days. I want to return to the United States!”
The lead repair technician looked at her and shrugged helplessly: “Probably not possible. The motherboard was also splashed with water. The problem is more complicated than expected.”
“Motherboard?” Tao Yu was stunned. The motherboard was worlds apart from the line board. How could it be splashed with water?
He sighed: “The problem you reported wasn’t comprehensive. The instrument for repairing the motherboard wasn’t brought. It’s currently being air-shipped. We’ll try to repair it as quickly as possible.”
“…How long will it take at the earliest?” Tao Yu’s face went blank.
He looked at her: “At least half a month. Longer if we’re unlucky.”
…Half a month. Yue Linze would have enough time to get her pregnant. Tao Yu returned to her room in despair, sat alone for a while, then locked the door, deciding not to go out during this time to avoid encountering that devil.
