41: sleeping in the same bed

"Your Highness, it's alright. I am here by your side, and I will always stay by your side from now on." Yin Lin stepped forward and pulled her into his embrace.

Gao Ying calmed her emotions in his arms.

As an orphan, she had encountered unpleasant things before, but she had been lucky enough to escape those clutches back then.

However, the events of that time had left a deep impression on her. Seeing the beastly things that man did this time triggered those long-buried memories.

"AFeng, when you go in, find someone to give him a 'warm' welcome.

A person like that shouldn't live a peaceful life." Gao Ying put away her whip and went outside to wait.

[Sister, you have me and Yin Lin now. Don't think about unhappy things anymore.] Fugui spoke up to comfort her.

"Fugui, I'm really thankful for your appearance. Because of you, I can open a charity company and change the fates of many people." Gao Ying was truly grateful to him.

[That's because Sister herself is a very good person, which is why you met such a generous system like me.

I'm going to spoil Sister into the most beautiful queen in this world.]

Seeing her finally smile, Fugui, as well as Yin Lin and Yin Feng who followed her out, also felt relieved.

Gao Ying and the others headed home first, while Yin Ren and Yin Chan dragged the man directly to the public security bureau.

All of the man's crimes were printed out and hung on his body.

As for those who shielded him, they were also arrested overnight. Before leaving, Yin Ren didn't forget to make him press his thumbprint on the equity transfer agreement.

"Look clearly, the money has already been deposited into your account. Don't go around saying these are predatory terms later.

The acquisition price for all shareholders of Tianyu is this amount." Yin Ren very kindly showed him the account information.

"However, you have now realized the gravity of your crimes, so you are willingly donating all your family assets.

Not! One! Cent! Left!" Yin Chan took the phone and performed some operations.

Right in front of the man, she donated all the assets in the account to charity organizations.

*Pfft!*

The man was completely fainted from anger by them this time.

These people were devils; even his secret accounts had been found.

The money he had originally kept to save his life in case of an accident was gone.

It was over!

Everything was over!

"So fragile. The job's done, let's go back and sleep. I'm exhausted." Yin Ren kicked the man out of the car and drove away.

It was already midnight, and Gao Ying couldn't help but fall asleep on the way back.

Seeing her sleeping soundly, Yin Lin couldn't bear to wake her up when they arrived at the villa.

It was now past one in the morning, and Yang Pei was still waiting in the hall for them to return.

As a qualified housekeeper, if the masters hadn't slept yet, she couldn't sleep first.

"Thank you for your hard work, go and rest." Yin Feng said to her when he saw her.

"I'll leave the young lady to you then." Yang Pei saw that Gao Ying was sleeping soundly and went back to rest with peace of mind.

Yin Lin carried her to the bedroom and gently placed her on the bed.

Looking at the sleeping beauty, his eyes were filled with tenderness and deep affection.

His gaze swept over those soft lips, and he couldn't resist leaning down to plant a kiss.

Gao Ying was unhappy at having her sleep disturbed. She opened her bleary eyes, saw him, and muttered while pushing him away.

"Heh, Ying'er, you're so cute." Yin Lin was charmed by her huffy appearance.

"It's so late, I'm sleepy, go to sleep." Gao Ying directly pressed him onto the bed, not forgetting to cover him with the quilt in her haze.

Yin Lin was momentarily dazed from being pressed onto the bed. Feeling the quilt and looking at the already asleep Gao Ying, he laughed softly, "This was your invitation for us to share a bed. Don't you dare deny it tomorrow."

On this side, Yin Lin fell into a beautiful dreamland while holding his beloved.

On the other side of the city, an arrest operation was underway.

"We have received a report that you are suspected of embezzlement. Please come with us now."

The investigators knocked on the door. When the villa owner came downstairs, they directly presented the arrest warrant and search warrant.

"I have served the people with all my heart and soul. Everything I've done has a clear trail. To think someone would still try to drag me down.

It's heartbreaking!" When Wang Da saw the documents in their hands, it would be a lie to say he wasn't panicking inside.

But thinking about how secretly he had done everything, he thought maybe someone was just trying to bluff him, and he quickly adjusted his mindset.

However, once he reached the bureau and saw them bring out the evidence piece by piece, he truly panicked.

"How can this be? I did these things so secretly. Who was it? Who on earth betrayed me?" Wang Da pounded the table in a rage.

"Actually, we have Wu Wen to thank this time. If he hadn't offended someone he shouldn't have, you wouldn't have been investigated so quickly."

One of the investigators had long been annoyed by him. Relying on his bit of power, he had even interfered with the bureau's affairs.

"Impossible. Although Wu Wen is stupid, he knows his limits. He wouldn't offend a big shot." Wang Da still knew Wu Wen's nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

"Enough talk. Your accomplices are being caught one by one.

If you want to get out sooner, start confessing." The investigator questioned him sternly.

This night, some slept sweetly, while others couldn't sleep at all.

As the dawn light broke, a ray of sunlight shone into the bedroom.

On the large bed in the warm-colored room, the handsome man and beautiful woman showed no signs of waking yet.

Half an hour later, Yin Lin's eyes slowly opened. He was in a somewhat hazy state until he smelled that familiar scent and fully woke up.

Looking at the still-sleeping beauty, he felt an unprecedented sense of happiness.

Waking up in the morning and holding his beloved—he had looked forward to this for far too long, so long that he had forgotten the time.

Yin Lin gazed infatuatedly at the person in his arms. After an unknown amount of time, the person in his arms showed signs of waking.

Yin Lin's first reaction was to close his eyes and pretend to be asleep.

Gao Ying hadn't even opened her eyes yet when she started stretching. "Hmm?"

Her hand hit an obstacle. Unsure, she felt around some more.

"Soft..." Gao Ying opened her eyes curiously and found her hand resting on the abdominal muscles of the person next to her.

Seeing Yin Lin, memories slowly surfaced in her mind. It seemed like she was the one who made him stay to sleep last night!!

"Fugui, I didn't do anything beastly last night, did I?" Gao Ying really couldn't remember if she had done something she shouldn't have while her consciousness was blurred.

[It's fine, the two of you just slept purely.] Fugui knew Yin Lin was already awake, but he didn't remind Gao Ying.

It wanted to see what Sister would do with such a top-quality man by her side.

Hearing that she hadn't done anything excessive, Gao Ying's nervous heart finally settled down.

She sat up and saw that the handsome man beside her showed no signs of waking. The hand resting on his abs unconsciously gave them a squeeze.

"Wow! Eight-pack abs, they feel so good to touch." Gao Ying talked to herself, the corners of her mouth curling up wildly.

Two little versions of herself were having a confrontation in Gao Ying's mind.

The Black-clothed Little Me: "Hehe! Since he's already your boyfriend, there's no problem in looking at his upper body, right?"

The White-clothed Little Me: "You can't! You two only confirmed your relationship yesterday. A girl needs to be reserved!"

The Black-clothed Little Me: "What is 'reserved'? Can you eat it? With such a top-tier hunk by your side, it's a problem if you *don't* take any action."

The White-clothed Little Me: "No..."

Before the White-clothed Little Me could finish, Gao Ying locked her in a small dark room.

"He's mine anyway, why should I be reserved?" Gao Ying reached out both hands and unbuttoned Yin Lin's shirt.
