Chapter 533 - 516: Sleepless Night
Liang Yingqi closed the door and then welcomed Ye Chen inside. As Ye Chen walked, he looked around. This apartment was quite spacious, with more than 130 square meters. According to the ever-increasing property prices in Hong Kong, this apartment was worth at least 50 million yuan. It seemed that Liang Yingqi was right; she and her daughter didn’t have to worry about their living expenses for the rest of their lives. Just this apartment alone provided them with significant security.
"Have a seat. I’ll pour you some tea," Liang Yingqi hurriedly called out to Ye Chen. For some reason, the fear she had felt seemed to dissipate a lot once she was back at home. Ye Chen quickly responded, "No need to trouble yourself; I’ll just sit for a moment and then leave!"
"You still have to drink some tea before you go," Liang Yingqi said with a light smile. That smile was intriguing to Ye Chen; it was full of allure, and he couldn’t quite understand it.
Ye Chen wrestled with his thoughts. It looked like it would be a sleepless night, wouldn’t it? A lone man and a widow in the same room, and the woman in her thirties—they say women in their thirties are like wolves, and those in their forties like tigers. The two alone in one room constituted a volatile mix. So, Ye Chen was in a real dilemma. To stay or to leave.
Isn’t it funny how the world works? Out for a stroll, and he ends up heading towards Nurse Liang’s place. Furthermore, Liang Yingqi worked late tonight, clocking out past eight o’clock. She had always walked to work to maintain her figure, from Victoria Hospital to the Victoria Shengtai Building, a journey that took a little over twenty minutes on foot and at most ten minutes by cab. But who would have thought, after walking this route for so long, she would encounter a robbery today? In the end, it was Ye Chen who rescued her. Liang Yingqi believed it was fate bestowed by heaven.
"Here’s your tea!" Liang Yingqi came over with a cup of tea and bent down to place it on the coffee table in front of Ye Chen.
"Oh, thank you!" Ye Chen hastily expressed his gratitude. But when he looked up, he couldn’t help but catch a glimpse of the fullness peeking from Liang Yingqi’s collar, the white flesh so clear. He took a sharp intake of breath and turned his head away quickly, not daring to look directly. In his heart, he screamed: Look away, look away!
Liang Yingqi seemed to notice Ye Chen’s embarrassment. She understood that he had seen her chest, but she didn’t feel anything in particular. After all, plenty of men had drooled over her, trying all sorts of ways to sneak a look. Dropping pens under her skirt on purpose, peeping when she bent over—each one like a starving wolf. But Ye Chen, upon seeing, would turn his head. This, at the very least, proved that Ye Chen was a gentleman at heart.
A simple test of Ye Chen’s character had been completed, and Liang Yingqi took the seat opposite him.
"Ye Chen, you’ve saved me again; how can I thank you?" Liang Yingqi looked at Ye Chen, smiling. Although she might not compare to Ms. Yan—a woman unforgettable after a single encounter, whose every frown and smile you would constantly think of, with her mature allure and sensuality, a true gem among young women—Liang Yingqi had her own unique charm. Her large, sparkling eyes, her small nose, and her petite, cherry-like mouth were reminiscent of a goose egg-shaped face similar to Fan Bingbing’s sensual allure. No wonder so many men were smitten. Ye Chen’s gaze traveled downward, and without much care, he caught a glimpse of the splendor under Liang Yingqi’s short skirt. Even though her legs were pressed tightly together, there was still a revealing sight.
