Chapter 17: Chapter 17 I Must Take Responsibility for You
Zhuang Shuqing: "..." She sat down as instructed, but only on a quarter of the sofa.
Lu Jinyang watched her sitting stiffly without any expression, "Last time, it seems we haven't finished discussing how to handle that matter."
Upon hearing this, she inwardly wailed but kept a composed face, yet his expressionless face made it impossible for her to guess his feelings about this matter.
She pursed her lips and didn't speak.
She thought he would continue to say something, but he also fell silent.
This atmosphere continued for almost a minute. Then he moved, taking a work permit from under the coffee table and placing it in front of her, signaling her to look at it herself.
Work Permit?
Zhuang Shuqing picked it up with a frown, and her face turned pale with shock, "How do you have my work permit?"
She remembered that she had never taken out her work permit after coming here, so how could her work permit be here?
However, when her eyes landed on the red lanyard, she panicked. She clearly remembered that the work permit she lost a while ago had a red lanyard, whereas the new one had a blue lanyard.

"Remember now?" Lu Jinyang captured every change in her expression, lazily leaning on the sofa and asking her.
Zhuang Shuqing shook her head, "I can't remember, how could my lost work permit end up with you?"
"You left it with me."
What does he mean by she left it with him? Could it be that she left it in that room that night?
But upon further reflection, that wasn't right; she went to work with her work permit the next day.
Amidst her confusion, she heard him continue, "The person who saved me left it."
The next second, his tall figure suddenly stood up and leaned over her. When he was about ten centimeters away from Zhuang Shuqing, he abruptly stopped.
The man's delicately sculpted handsome face suddenly approached, his warm breath fanning over Zhuang Shuqing's face, meeting her cool and deep eyes, striking her like lightning.
It was too dark that night for her to see clearly, but now, at such a close distance, she realized that the man in front of her was very good-looking, with a straight nose, deep contours, and beautiful lips... He was good-looking from every angle.
The woman in front of him was distracted. Lu Jinyang's handsome brows furrowed, and his long fingers gently pinched her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.
He spoke in a deep voice: "Show gratitude, do you understand?"
Zhuang Shuqing, taken aback by his sudden move, instinctively repeated, "What saving? What showing gratitude?" She found his behavior incomprehensible.
Lu Jinyang then let go of her hand without intending to explain further. "I slept with you, and you don't need me to take responsibility, I won't insist... But you saved me... so, I must take responsibility for you."
As he spoke, he picked up a form from the table and handed it to her.
Zhuang Shuqing took one look and felt overwhelmed.

She stared fiercely at Lu Jinyang, "What does this mean?"
"To devote myself to you."
Zhuang Shuqing's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably a few times, suddenly slamming her hand on the coffee table, gritting her teeth and saying: "I told you, that night we were both willing, you don't need to take responsibility!"
Lu Jinyang did not expect the woman who was just being docile a moment ago to bristle the next, leading him to glance sideways.
"Mr. Lu, I'm telling you one last time, we are both adults. Please don't bring up that matter again."
Not bring it up again?
Lu Jinyang's eyes narrowed dangerously. Does she, a woman, care so little about her first time?
It must be said, Lu Jinyang is quite conservative in this regard.
"Really don't need me to take responsibility?"
