After who knew how long, Cheng Qingchong felt someone enter the room in her sleep. She opened her eyes instinctively and saw Qin Yinan standing beside her bed, undoing his tie.
Her drowsiness disappeared instantly, and Cheng Qingchong's body stiffened like she was being controlled by someone. Her hands that were hidden under the covers gripped the sheets, and her eyes that stared at Qin Yinan were filled with caution.
Qin Yinan pulled his tie off and tossed it on the empty half of the bed. Out of the corner of his eyes, Cheng Qingchong's gaze accidentally met Cheng Qingchong's.
He paused for a moment and slowly turned his head to look at her.
Earlier, Qin Yinan had been facing Cheng Qingchong from the side, so she didn't get a good look at his face. However, as his face met hers, she realized his hair was a mess, his face was pale, and there were dark circles around his eyes. His brows were deeply furrowed like he had run into some kind of trouble.
In Cheng Qingchong's memory, Qin Yinan had always been a gentleman; he was rarely so unkempt.
Cheng Qingchong frowned, and a look of surprise flashed across her face. The panic that had appeared in her heart when she saw Qin Yinan was slightly suppressed by confusion and doubt.
Qin Yinan left in such a hurry after receiving a phone call in the middle of the night and only returned now. Furthermore, he made himself look so tired … Is he in some kind of trouble?
Cheng Qingchong stared at Qin Yinan with her lips pressed together. She was confused, but she didn't dare ask.
Qin Yinan only glanced at Cheng Qingchong before moving his gaze away. He raised his hands to undo the buttons on his shirt.
Perhaps because he knew she was awake, Qin Yinan kept glancing at Cheng Qingchong out of the corner of his eyes.
Cheng Qingchong stared at him unblinkingly like she had been petrified.

Qin Yinan stopped moving and stood with his back facing Cheng Qingchong for two seconds before turning back to the bed. Without looking at Cheng Qingchong, he bent over to pick up his phone. He glanced at the caller ID; it was his secretary. He lowered his eyes and didn't answer it immediately. He walked out of the bedroom with the phone in his hand before answering it.
When he closed the door, Cheng Qingchong, who was lying in bed, heard his lowered voice ask, "How was it? Have you contacted President Zhou? "
As the door closed, silence returned to the bedroom.
Cheng Qingchong moved slightly. She had been lying on her side while staring at Qin Yinan. She rolled over and lay flat on the bed. She stared at the ceiling, and for some reason, her heart felt uneasy.
Her woman's intuition told her that Qin Yinan was in big trouble.
She knew that Qin Yinan did not need her to worry about him, but after he slowly stole her heart away, she could no longer control herself.
Cheng Qingchong bit on her lips, but in the end, she still pulled back the cover, got out of bed, and tiptoed to the bedroom door. She turned the doorknob carefully and pulled the door open a sliver.
Qin Yinan's voice drifted into her ears from the balcony.
"… I'll try my best. If you really can't contact him, it's fine. I've already prepared for the worst …"
