In the evening, approaching after-work hours.

Mo Corporation, the CEO's office.

After receiving a satisfying collaboration contract, the partner company's representative politely stayed to chat for several minutes before finally leaving.

The office returned to its silence. Mo Jingshen's gaze shifted toward the breakroom, and when the secretary and assistant finally finished their summary of the day's work, he glanced at the time and closed the file in his hands.

He approached the breakroom's door and noticed it was quiet inside. He guessed Ji Nuan must have fallen asleep.

The door was quietly pushed open.

On the soft and big bed, Ji Nuan was sleeping deeply. Her soft and smooth hair spread across the pillow, and her sleeping face was relaxed and peaceful. Her phone was placed right next to her pillow where she could easily retrieve it.

He could sense that before falling asleep, she must have fussed about whether or not to reply to him. Mo Jingshen smiled, picking up her phone and placing it by the bedside table.

Ji Nuan slept too sweetly. Mo Jingshen sat down by the bed, watching her without making any movement. He quietly watched her like this.

Last night, during the heavy thunderstorm, this little woman seemed to have ascended from heaven as she climbed up toward the balcony. The scene of her throwing herself in his embrace while carrying a wounded body replayed in his mind over and over again.

He watched her for a long while and noticed that the small abrasion on Ji Nuan's face had mostly faded.

Mo Jingshen held one of her hands, turning it over to scan the wounds on her palm. Although they were light and not considered serious, they were slightly swollen because they were not properly disinfected.

He stood up and left the breakroom, ordering Shen Mu to buy some disinfecting medicine.

Not long later, after receiving the medicine, Mo Jingshen returned to the breakroom.

The room was completely quiet. He could only barely pick up the light breathing sounds Ji Nuan made. It had a slow frequency, and just by listening, one would feel the peace in this room was a rare getaway from the world.

The medicine that Mo Jingshen had Shen Mu specially head out to buy did not cause the stinging pain typical disinfectants would. Yet, as the powder was lightly scattered on Ji Nuan's palm, the slightly ticklish and painful sensation still caused her to knit her brows in her sleep.

"En..." She instinctively wanted to shrink her hand back, uncomfortably releasing a soft whimper.

Mo Jingshen held onto her hand to prevent her from moving away. Just as Ji Nuan's movements became more prominent, he bent down and gently kissed her lips. Finally, as the meltingly-numb sensation on her lips distracted her from the slight pain on her palm, her brows relaxed, and she fell into a peaceful sleep once more. Her cherry-petal-colored lips curved into a slight smile as though she was having a beautiful dream.

When the little woman was asleep, she appeared especially sweet and seductive. If it was not because both his hands were busy, and he still had to continue applying the disinfectant, Mo Jingshen would not have minded pressing her down for a deeper kiss.

He slowly leaned back, holding her hand gently as he took his time scattering the white powder across the small abrasions. The wound was not serious enough to require stitches or bandages, but the simple process of disinfecting could not be neglected.

The clothes Ji Nuan wore were thin and loose. Mo Jingshen easily pushed her sleeves up and applied the medicine on her elbows as well.

As he tugged the bottom of her clothes aside, the man paused in his actions.

After showering, she had worn this pair of clothes. Underneath it, she did not wear anything so everything could be seen...

Mo Jingshen suppressed the passion ignited in his eyes. After rubbing the medicine on her leg, he placed it on the bedside table.

Then, he lowered his gaze.

As the blanket on her was pushed aside, as was the clothing on her lower half, the cold had caused the little woman to shrink both feet toward herself instinctually.

Last night, both of them did not rest well. Initially, he should have let her rest longer. However, as this scene was far too provoking, Mo Jingshen's powerful restrain that worked against the aphrodisiac last night almost instantly dissipated.

He leaned down, picking up a few strands of her hair to breath in the scent of her shampoo and shower gel mixed with the light scent on her body.

Mo Jingshen curved his lips. One kiss landed on her hair, before he bent down once more, kissing the snow-white space between her brows. He slowly moved down, kissing her small yet straight nose, before unhurriedly pressing his lips against hers. The kiss from earlier on was wholly insufficient.

The soft and sweet sensation caused the man to submit to the sudden surge of his desire. He gradually deepened the kiss.

Regardless of how deeply she was sleeping, the sensation still caused Ji Nuan to open her eyes. She was still half-asleep as she watched the man above her dazedly. Seeing that it was Mo Jingshen kissing her, she did not resist. As their lips parted slightly, she smiled in a daze. "You're done working ah..."

"En." Mo Jingshen's actions did not stop at all. His palms caressed the softness of her breasts through her thin garment as he deepened the kiss more. His other hand wrapped around her waist.

His lips shifted across her cheek, connecting with her lips, before moving down onto her neck. He sensed Ji Nuan falling back asleep under him and bit down on her collarbone. It caused her body to shiver abruptly. As she opened her eyes, she pressed her hands against her own head in a daze.

"What time is it?" She asked huskily as she had just woken up.

"It's already after-work hours." The man continued pressing kisses on her collarbone as he pleased, with more intensity than he did previously. His voice was as husky as hers.

Ji Nuan was just about to sit up when she discovered she could not. It was only then that she finally reacted.

What exactly is Mo Jingshen doing!

She abruptly lost all drowsiness. Before she could even speak up, the man's hand had already moved under her clothing.

His burning hot palm rubbed against her back before moving up, holding her entire body firmly in his embrace. Under her slightly astonished gaze, he held her neck and bent down to kiss her heavily. "Finally awake?"

"En, awake..." Ji Nuan was in shock. She realized they were still in his breakroom, in other words, in his office. She mumbled against his lips, "What are you doing..."

"What do you think I'm doing?" He chuckled lightly and gave her a forceful kiss sufficient to erase her awareness of what day it was.

As the man's actions became more and more out of line, Ji Nuan moaned from the stimulation. She softly asked, "You didn't sleep much last night, and you headed to the office immediately today. Can your body take it?"

She meant that she was concerned about his lack of sleep. After suffering through such a tormenting night and then working so productively, she wanted him to use this rare free time to have a good rest.

Yet, when these words entered the man's ears, they were twisted into something else. He softly chuckled, his voice carrying several hints of warning. "Whether or not my body can take it, you'll find out soon enough."
