?
The sudden coat made Lu Mian step back and with a puzzled expression, she turned to look at its origin, where Xiao Qimo had already withdrawn his hand and slowly stood up.
Ye Jinwen’s mouth twitched.
Looking down at the brand-new mechanical watch on his wrist, he was filled with emotion.
Heartless bitch!
Old fox!
Lu Mian couldn’t help but laugh, shaking her head as she walked over to help him, “Director Qimo, you are quite attentive.
You’re drunk and still so concerned about your brother.”
Ye Jinwen suddenly looked up, something shattering in his eyes.
No, Little Mianmian, have you misunderstood something?
Xiao Qimo’s form stiffened.
At that moment, Yun Sang, who had fallen asleep under the unexpected warmth covering his legs, also opened his eyes half-drunk, half-awake.
He thought he heard a girl’s voice.
He tossed the bottle in his hand to the side and rubbed his eyes, looking towards the couch.
His first reaction upon waking was to look for Xiao Qimo.
However, the scene before him made him suddenly freeze.
After rubbing his eyes again to make sure he wasn’t mistaken,
he saw a slender girl standing beside Xiao Qimo.
Without saying a word, she draped his arm over her shoulder and helped Xiao Qimo walk out.
Xiao Qimo, placing some of his weight on the girl, followed along obediently, the two of them standing remarkably close.
???
What the hell?!
It was only after they had walked far away that Yun Sang reacted slowly, shock tinting his deep black eyes.
His pupils, sharply defined in black and white, showed not the slightest hint of drunkenness as he stared at Ye Jinwen.
“What’s going on with your seventh brother?”
“It’s a long story,” Ye Jinwen clicked his tongue twice, not surprised by Yun Sang’s sudden sobriety.
Men, how could they possibly drink themselves into oblivion?
They always had to leave some leeway to maintain their composure, plus a little bit of acting, and that’s about “drunkenness.”
“To put it simply—it’s that Seventh Brother is in love,” he explained.
!!!
A cool breeze blew between Yun Sang’s legs, colder than running to the North Pole in underwear.
His gaze landed on the suit coat on the coffee table, and he suddenly understood.
“Xiao Qimo, your grandpa!” He grabbed the coat and threw it on the ground in exasperation.
Seeing this, Ye Jinwen quickly came forward to soothe him, “Brother Yun, don’t get excited!”
After speaking, he suddenly found the plot turning weird, and he spat several times, “Brother Yun, calm down first, will you?”
“How can I calm down?
We agreed to stick together as bros, and whoever gets into a relationship first is a dog; he betrayed me!” Yun Sang pointed outside, the muscles on his cold, pale face trembling along.
“I haven’t even touched meat or fish yet!
Everyone in the team lives a life purer than monks, and look at him, he just happily walks away with a beauty in his arms?!”
Ye Jinwen: “…”
After shouting dryly, he ground his teeth and said, “Little Yezi, in three minutes, I want all the information on that girl!”
Ye Jinwen weakly advised, “Brother Yun, is that really necessary…”
“Heh!” Yun Sang laughed grimly, “Of course, it’s necessary.
I have to make him pay for wasting my youth!”
Ye Jinwen: “…”
Why was the plot becoming more and more twisted?

Lu Mian helped Xiao Qimo towards his room, which was arranged on the top floor, quiet, with no disturbances.
True to the legend, wherever the Shadow Hunting Team went, not even a female mosquito would be present.
There was a coldness in the depths of her eyes.
By contrast, the man’s body beside her was somewhat warm, his breath carrying a faint scent of alcohol and a burning heat.
She struggled to support him, heading back to the room in the direction he pointed.
But strangely, the normally bustling villa was now devoid of anyone coming over to help.
It was one thing for the members of the Shadow Hunting Team, but Mo Si, Mo Nie, and Ye Jinwen hadn’t followed either, leaving her to bear the full weight of Xiao Qimo alone.
This man was so heavy.
Thankfully, she was strong enough to barely drag him to the room.
The door to his room was open, and Lu Mian, moving sluggishly, brought Xiao Qimo inside and exhaled deeply.
Engrossed with observing her surroundings, she didn’t notice the man’s long legs covertly hooking the door closed behind them.
Just as Lu Mian finished scanning the room, she led him toward the bedroom.
“Director Qimo, wake up, please lie down on the bed for a while,” she said.
Her only response was a few soft breaths.
Lu Mian sighed, finding it such a hassle dealing with a drunken man.
If only he would quietly sleep after drinking, like she did—how much easier that would be.
Finally, Lu Mian got Xiao Qimo to the edge of the large bed.
Given her limited strength and his heavy inertness, as she got to the bedside, she was pulled down by the man’s force within a breath’s time.
That was followed by the heavy weight of Xiao Qimo’s body.
An accident happening suddenly, as she saw the man’s body fall toward her, Lu Mian narrowed her eyes slightly and rolled over with agile speed, narrowly avoiding him.
Her movements were nimble, her posture graceful.
Xiao Qimo’s body landed precisely where she had just been lying.
Lu Mian sat at the edge of the bed, took a deep breath, and looking at the man on the bed, she said with a mouth quirked and an air of having narrowly escaped disaster, “Director Qimo, it’s a good thing I reacted quickly, or you definitely would have fractured my bones.
Next time you really should be careful, not everyone could dodge like I did.”
She wasn’t sure if Xiao Qimo could hear her, but she said it anyway.
As she got up, she didn’t notice the man on the bed, his hand reluctantly clutching the bedsheet.
“Director Qimo, have a good rest,” she said.
Lu Mian, never having taken care of a drunk man before, went over to remove his glasses and tugged him further onto the bed, feeling like things were properly taken care of.
Just doing these few things had caused a fine sweat to appear on her forehead, and she leaned against the beside, fanning herself while taking deep breaths.
“Buzz…”
In the quiet room, a phone vibration sounded.
The noise came from Lu Mian’s pocket; she pulled it out to check the caller ID.
Her gaze swept over the man on the bed before she headed straight for the living room outside.
Meanwhile, the man on the bed subtly twitched his ears.
The call was from Qiu Shu, the current Creative Director of Sufeng Game Company.
Lu Mian remembered this number, and after connecting the call, her tone was as calm and concise as ever.
“What’s the matter?” she asked.
Qiu Shu spoke somewhat sheepishly, “Um…
I found where you’re staying.
I’m right now at the entrance of Yulan Pavilion in Yangfan Hotel.”
“…” Lu Mian rubbed her forehead, her toes kicking at the carpet, clearly exasperated.
“Finding me is useless.
I don’t want to go,” she said.
Qiu Shu added, “No…
don’t hang up just yet, just give me a chance to meet, listen to what I have to say, and then make your decision, okay?”
“…”
The idea of Qiu Shu waiting for her at the entrance of Yulan Pavilion was tremendously annoying to Lu Mian.
“Wait for me.
I’ll be right there!” she said.

This matter could only be resolved face to face.
Lu Mian put her phone back in her pocket, cast a glance at Xiao Qimo still asleep in the bedroom, and left first.
After the door closed behind her, Xiao Qimo quietly sat up from the bed, the depths of his eyes crystal clear and cold, showing no sign of drunkenness.
He breathed deeply as he took out his phone and dialed a number.
