155: Pointed head

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Chen Qiu opened his eyes on the 2.2-meter-wide bed in his new house.

The first thing that caught his eye was Yan Baiwei's serene and cool sleeping face.

Her face glowed with a faint, healthy flush.

Scenes of the Class Monitor's boldness and charm from the previous night immediately flashed through Chen Qiu's mind.

From the bathing and incense to the goddess bestowing her grace, and then to her begging for mercy... over several recurring hours, Chen Qiu only grew more valiant!

If it hadn't been for the goddess's repeated pleas, he would have continued, his desire still unspent.

This perfectly exquisite body was truly formidable!

Chen Qiu caressed Yan Baiwei's lovely face.

Her delicate, smooth skin was like mutton-fat jade.

One couldn't help but want to stroke it carefully.

"Mmm..."

Feeling the mischievous hand, Yan Baiwei let out a soft moan and woke from her slumber.

The first thing she saw when she opened her bleary, beautiful eyes was Chen Qiu leaning against the headboard with his upper body bare.

Yan Baiwei's heart skipped a beat as scenes from the previous night involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

Her cool, snow-like face was once again tinged with a rosy blush.

Her body seemed to grow weak as the memories played out.

Soul-stirringly intoxicated!

This was her most intense and unforgettable feeling from last night.

"When did you get such a physique?"

Yan Baiwei looked at Chen Qiu's chiseled, statue-like physique and asked with a hint of eagerness and a touch of curiosity in her eyes.

She had seen him naked before.

But that was the first time, and she had been so shy that they only started after the lights were off.

So, she hadn't paid much attention to his physique.

It was only when Chen Qiu dragged her to bathe last night that she realized this man's body was so perfect!

He wasn't as bulky as those fitness bloggers, but his muscle lines had a highly streamlined aesthetic!

Chen Qiu patted his eight-pack abs and chuckled.

"It's from juicing—all 'tech and ruthlessness'!"

Yan Baiwei immediately gave him a charming roll of her eyes.

Did he think she was stupid? Muscles built on steroids never had the natural beauty that Chen Qiu's did!

Besides, she had personal experience with 'active' versus 'dead' muscles; how could she not have a say?

So, she jokingly touched Chen Qiu's head.

"Then why isn't your head pointy?"

Chen Qiu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the playful Class Monitor and shook his head with a laugh.

Soon after, following the Class Monitor's exclamation, Chen Qiu's voice drifted out from the master bedroom.

"The pointy one is a different head..."

...It wasn't until after ten-thirty that Chen Qiu finished washing up and got out of bed.

He boiled the remaining dumplings that Yan Baiwei had brought over last time.

He carried them into the master bedroom for Yan Baiwei.

She leaned weakly against the headboard and looked at the still-energetic Chen Qiu with a resentful gaze.

Isn't it said that only the ox gets exhausted?

Why did Chen Qiu seem completely unaffected?

Eating the dumplings she had wrapped and Chen Qiu had boiled, Yan Baiwei felt a sense of cozy comfort, as if she were wrapped in the warm winter sun.

This might be the happiness her parents had always pursued... Yan Baiwei looked up at Chen Qiu, her clear eyes like soft clouds.

Chen Qiu suddenly remembered something and said.

"By the way, when work resumes after the New Year, would you be interested in participating in some of the interior design for the Cultural Industry Park?"

Yan Baiwei paused at his words.

For a designer, it would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted by the chance to participate in—or even lead—the interior design of such a large project!

But... Yan Baiwei was afraid she would hold Chen Qiu back.

"I don't have much experience in designing large venues like that. I'd only be a burden to you."

Yan Baiwei shook her head.

"Then once you finish the design for the Cultural Industry Park, won't you be experienced?"

Hearing Chen Qiu's matter-of-fact words, Yan Baiwei's expression froze.

Was he going to use the Cultural Industry Park as practice for her?

In an instant, Yan Baiwei's heart was filled with a tingling sense of being moved.

"I..."

"I believe in you!"

Chen Qiu cut off her words before she could speak.

Only then did Yan Baiwei nod gently.

"Then I also believe in your eye for choosing me."

The corners of Chen Qiu's mouth curled slightly.

Yan Baiwei's ability and potential were ranked among the best in the proposal's evaluations.

With such a great opportunity, he naturally arranged for her to level up!

Just then, Chen Qiu suddenly received a message from Kong Ying.

After reading the message, he raised an eyebrow slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Yan Baiwei asked with concern.

"Something's come up. I need to go back and take care of it."

"Just rest at home. If you need anything, just give her a call."

Chen Qiu gave Yan Baiwei one of Song Xiangtong's business cards.

"Okay. Go ahead and get to work."

Yan Baiwei watched Chen Qiu leave, looking thoughtfully at the exquisite business card in her hand with Song Xiangtong's name on it.

After leaving the house, Chen Qiu went to the underground garage.

His horch and GT63 were both parked neatly below; Yu Shen had driven the GT63 back from the mall last night.

Chen Qiu got into the horch and drove toward the village...
