365: It's easy for a woman to pursue a man.

Yang Zhongqiang and his wife Zhao Rulin were driving behind, discussing Lin Zifeng and Li Yanran who were in the car ahead.

Hearing the news Zhao Rulin had just revealed, Yang Zhongqiang said with some disbelief, "Honey, is what you're saying true?

Yanran, who so many outstanding young men have pursued in vain, wants to voluntarily be Zifeng's secret lover?"

Zhao Rulin nodded and said, "That's what Yanran told me. You know we sisters share everything. You're my husband, so I'm telling you this, but you absolutely must not reveal it to anyone.

Yanran trusts me. If this leaks out from me, she'll blame me.

You're my husband, and I trust you. Don't let me down."

Zhao Rulin earnestly instructed.

"Don't worry, honey. I won't betray your trust. I also know that if such a thing leaked out, it would have a negative impact on them. I will definitely keep my mouth shut.

But from what I see of Zifeng's attitude, it will be hard for Yanran to get her wish."

After making his promise, Yang Zhongqiang said thoughtfully.

"Haven't you heard the saying? When a man chases a woman, it's like climbing a mountain; when a woman chases a man, it's only a veil apart. Besides, our Yanran is absolutely stunning!"

Zhao Rulin said with a smile.

Hearing Zhao Rulin's words, Yang Zhongqiang spoke up, "There's some truth to what you say. But if they really do get together secretly, how will they get past my uncle and aunt?

Zifeng is extremely sharp. After all this time interacting with them, he must have already guessed my uncle and my father's statuses.

Do you think, given our two families' backgrounds, Zifeng would dare to make Yanran his secret lover? That's probably his biggest concern."

"I've actually discussed this very issue with Yanran before.

But she doesn't think it's a problem. She believes that if Zifeng hadn't saved us back then, we wouldn't even be alive.

What's more, she's hopelessly in love with Zifeng. She's sworn to be with him. If my uncle and aunt get angry at Zifeng later, she'll threaten to kill herself.

I also think that if my uncle and aunt know Yanran was the one who initiated it, they won't blame Zifeng. After all, Zifeng is the savior of both our families."

Zhao Rulin said thoughtfully.

Hearing Zhao Rulin's words, Yang Zhongqiang shook his head and said, "Yanran really is a bit hopeless. Let's not interfere. Let's just watch how things develop and keep their secret for them!"

Zhao Rulin nodded and said, "After dinner at the club tonight, let's head home early. Don't stay at the club and get in Yanran's way."

The couple talked the whole way, and the two cars drove one after the other to the entrance of the club.

The five of them got out of their cars one after another and walked into the club together.

Li Yanran had called ahead, so shortly after they entered the Private Room and sat down, several waiters brought in delicious dishes.

The food and drinks were quickly served.

Li Yanran was the first to raise her glass and speak, "To congratulate Zifeng and Brother Qiang's class on winning the basketball championship, and to our lasting friendship. Let's drink this toast together to celebrate."

Everyone raised their glasses in response. Zhao Rulin quickly added, "After dinner, Zhongqiang and I need to head home early. We have some things to take care of.

I'll be driving back later, so I can only drink tea instead of wine."

The others smiled and nodded in agreement, then all raised their glasses and drank in one go.

"Brother Lin, how are you so outstanding? On the basketball court, you were the focus of everyone's attention. Saying you moved like the wind wouldn't be an exaggeration.

I admire you from the bottom of my heart. From now on, you're my own brother. I toast you."

Li Dongliang raised his glass and said.

"Xiao Liang, I'm just a bit stronger than average. It's really nothing. You're exaggerating a bit. Let's just drink!"

Lin Zifeng smiled, clinked glasses with Li Dongliang, and after saying this, drank it all in one go.

The group chatted very pleasantly. After several rounds of drinks and many dishes, Yang Zhongqiang and Zhao Rulin said their goodbyes. The other three saw the couple out of the Private Room.

Watching the couple disappear into the elevator, Li Dongliang finally spoke up, "Brother Lin, let's go upstairs to sing!

I still want to hear you sing!

Your singing is so good, it left a deep impression on us!"

Before Lin Zifeng could speak, Li Yanran took the lead, "Xiao Liang, are you using your brain?

Zifeng played two basketball games today. How much energy do you think he used?

How could he possibly be in the mood to sing? Do whatever you want, no one's stopping you. Zifeng needs to go back to his room and rest."

Hearing Li Yanran's words, Li Dongliang suddenly understood. He slapped his forehead and said, "Brother Lin, my sister's right. You should go rest in your room! I'm heading upstairs first. I'll take you back tomorrow."

After saying this, Li Dongliang walked towards another elevator.

Watching Li Dongliang disappear into the elevator, Li Yanran smiled and said, "Zifeng, go upstairs and rest. I have some things to take care of, so I won't accompany you up."

Lin Zifeng nodded and walked towards the elevator.

Li Yanran watched Lin Zifeng's retreating figure, her beautiful eyes shining. A little scheme was brewing in her mind. She said to herself inwardly, "Over a month has passed. Tonight is a rare good opportunity. I absolutely cannot let it slip away.

Otherwise, who knows when I'll find such a good chance again!

First, let Zifeng lower his guard. Later, I'll give him a surprise he won't expect."

Thinking this to herself, her gaze grew even more determined. She turned and walked downstairs.

Li Yanran went downstairs, went to the front desk to get a spare key card for Lin Zifeng's room and a key card for the room next to his, then turned and went back upstairs.

Her earlier excuse to Lin Zifeng about having things to handle was just a pretext. She specifically went downstairs to get these two cards.

She went upstairs, opened the room next to Lin Zifeng's, and walked in.

After returning to his room, Lin Zifeng went to the bathroom and soaked in the bath for over half an hour. Then, wrapped in a bathrobe, he came out, sat on the sofa, took out his phone, and began checking the news.

As a young Deputy Department-Level Cadre, he paid attention to real-time news every day to stay updated on newly issued policies.

Li Yanran entered her room, also took a bath, changed into a very sexy nightgown, draped her bathrobe over it, and sat elegantly on the sofa.

Although she had already made up her mind, at this critical moment, Li Yanran, still a virgin, couldn't help but feel nervous and apprehensive.

Involuntarily, her heart began to race like a startled deer.

She gave herself a mental pep talk, then stood up. Clutching the spare key card for the neighboring room, she walked step by step towards the door.
