Chapter 435: Chapter 435

"President Qi is famously stingy and cunning; don’t stoop to his level," Tang Yi advised gently.

Ji Yunli braced himself against the wall with one hand, his face lit with the rosy flush of intoxication. He pushed her lightly with the other hand, slurring, "Tang Yi, it’s late. You should head home."

Tang Yi maintained her ever-present gentle smile, her tone just as soft, "Let me help settle you into the bedroom first. Once you’re taken care of, I’ll leave."

With that, she reached out once more to support Ji Yunli.

Ji Yunli didn’t insist further. Ji Wei soon heard the bedroom door open, then close moments later.

Her expression gradually turned cold.

So Tang Yi was still unwilling to give up after all!

Did she think as long as she stayed by her father’s side, she would manage to succeed one day? If she were a simple and sincere woman, Ji Wei might have considered letting her father have a companion. After all, he was aging, and Ji Wei couldn’t always be there for him.

But Tang Yi was far from simple. Ji Wei had once overheard her on a phone call, saying that once she secured Ji Yunli, her career path would be smooth sailing, no more struggling and waiting for promotions.

Tang Yi’s approach to Ji Yunli was purely for money. This woman was too cunning—absolutely not suitable as a partner!

Standing outside the door, Ji Wei’s eyes flashed with icy determination.

Half an hour later, she opened her own door and walked toward Ji Yunli’s bedroom.

Since Tang Yi had taken Ji Yunli inside, she hadn’t come out.

Now Ji Yunli was utterly drunk, making this the perfect opportunity for Tang Yi to make her move.

If she slept with Ji Yunli and ended up pregnant, even if Ji Wei wanted to oppose it later, Ji Yunli might show leniency toward her for the sake of a child. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the NoveI-Fire.ɴet

The sound of knocking suddenly came from the door.

Fresh out of the bathroom, Tang Yi was dressed in nothing but a man’s shirt—Ji Yunli’s shirt.

She glanced at the man passed out on the bed in a drunken stupor. A calculating glint flickered in her eyes.

No matter who was knocking at that moment, she couldn’t open the door. After months of waiting in patience, this opportunity had finally come; she couldn’t let it slip away!

Besides, she had timed everything perfectly. These were her ovulation days—the most fertile period. That was why she had planned tonight’s meeting under the guise of a business dinner with President Qi.

At the banquet, she was supposed to help Ji Yunli block drinks, but she declined with the excuse of feeling unwell.

Ji Yunli, knowing she was a woman, expressed understanding, which led to him drinking himself completely drunk.

Tang Yi walked over, bracing both arms on either side of Ji Yunli. She lowered her head, looking at his face—handsome and charismatic even in middle age.

In truth, she did have some affection for Ji Yunli, but her love for his money far outweighed her feelings for the man.

"Mr. Ji..." Tang Yi softly called out, her breath warm and fragrant.

Half-conscious, Ji Yunli squinted his eyes open slightly.

He saw a blurry outline of a woman’s figure; she gracefully swept her long hair aside. The top buttons of her shirt were undone, revealing the tantalizing curves underneath.

Tang Yi kneeled over Ji Yunli’s lap. The hem of the white shirt barely covered her curves, hinting at her bare skin beneath—nothing left to the imagination.

Though Ji Yunli knew the situation was precarious, his dulled mind failed to resist. His body even began reacting to the temptation before him...

Knock, knock, knock!!

The knocking grew more urgent.

Impatience flickered through Tang Yi’s brow. Eagerly, she reached out to tug off Ji Yunli’s tie and began unbuttoning his shirt.

Just as she was about to pull off Ji Yunli’s pants, the locked door burst open with a loud crash!

Tang Yi froze in terror, her whole body stiffening. In the chaos, she tumbled sideways onto the edge of the bed.
