worked.She twisted open the box and poured out two white pills, placing them in her palm. They smelled strange.Lin Jinyan drank a glass of water, gulping it down.After waiting for a few minutes, she...Lin Shan'er feigned ignorance, turning her head to look at Ye Xiao who was sitting on the bed, lowering his eyes to deal with work.

She clenched her fist, a faint smile playing on her lips, "I won't bother you, I'm leaving now."

"Good." Ye Xiao continued to handle the work at hand without raising his head.

Lin Shan'er looked at him for a moment, pressed down the questions she wanted to ask, and turned away from the ward.

In the car leaving the hospital, she took out her phone and made a call, her face turning pale as she said, "Investigate for me, is there still a woman by Night Owl's side!"

She suppressed her anger, gritted her teeth and continued, “No, there’s another woman with him, currently unknown whereabouts. I need to investigate her! The sooner the better. I want to know as fast as possible, who she is!”

Having cut off her phone, Lin Shaner angrily clutched it in her hand, her heart still unable to calm down. Who could it be Someone had stealthily been by Ye Xiao's side, and she hadn't known a thing!

Lin Shan'er turned to the window, her eyes full of ferocity.

I must find this woman. Every woman who has ever been near Night Owl, she must disappear completely, not one left!

Back at the villa, Lin Jinran once again lived a life of imprisonment, unable to leave or escape.

Time flew by, and three days passed. She occasionally inquired about Ye Xiao's condition in the hospital, and the housekeeper truthfully answered her every time.

Over the past three days, Lin Jinran has not gone to the hospital again, and Ye Xiao hasn't returned here.

The cup still held the ring that Ye Xiao had given her. Lin Jinran picked up the cup by chance and saw the ring unintentionally. She pinched it between her fingertip, looking at it carefully.

The ring fit perfectly on her finger, not too big and not too small. It was clearly custom-made for her by Ye Xiao, with a lot of thought put into its design.

Lin Jinyan was a little confused, and even a little unsure of Ye Xiao this person.

Does he really like her

Maybe so, Lin Jinran could feel Ye Xiao's good intentions towards her. Besides freedom, he could give her everything else.

However, freedom is what Lin Jinran yearns for most.

If she had not interacted with Ye Xiao in this way, perhaps it would have been a more natural progression: an encounter, contact, understanding. From stranger to familiar acquaintance.

She had to admit, Night Owl as a mature man was undeniably attractive, captivating her attention.

Maybe, she really might fall for him.

Ironically, there are no ifs in this world. The confinement, the coercion, the stubbornness, the forced doting of the Night Owl.

These are things Lin Jinran wants to escape, wants to refuse!

She had finally used the wrong way, she sighed softly and slowly put down the ring in her hand, continued to buckle it with the lid.

She pulled up a chair, sat down, and continued to tap into her creative inspiration.

A thick stack of paper, that was all her inspiration. Lin Jinran didn't know if any of it would ever be turned into a finished product.

Now she just wants to record it, so that Pengfei's inspiration won't disappear from her mind and vanish forever.

She lowered her head, concentrating intently and seriously. A rebellious strand of hair playfully fell down, obscuring half of her rounded cheek.

The room was eerily silent, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. The only sound was the gentle scratching of the pen tip against paper.

Opposite her desk, on the wall, a painting hid a pinhole camera. It was recording her every move, transmitting it without missing a detail to a computer.

In the hospital room, Ye Xiao sat quietly, his gaze fixed intently on the computer screen. The woman beside him seemed lost in thought as well.ss text message came in with a few words on it."It's not that it's impossible, it's just not the right time yet. I will be back!"A hint of discomfort flashed through his mind. Lin Jinran furrowed his...
