Shi Su unexpectedly entered the elevator, almost bumping her nose into the man’s back. She quickly steadied herself, then looked up at the man who was much taller than her. The spacious and bright elevator was filled with the man’s unique, clear scent. She stepped aside a little, glanced around the elevator, and asked, "This place seems very close to your company. Is this your home?" Jing Jihan looked down at her. Shi Su’s face almost blatantly read, "You scheming man unexpectedly brought me to your home, clearly having ulterior motives against me." But because he was no longer Ji Han, but Jing Jihan, she held back and didn’t say anything. The defensiveness on her face was obvious. "What do you think?" Jing Jihan looked straight at her. Shi Su stared at him without blinking for a long time. Their eyes met, then she quickly averted her gaze, standing obediently by his side, staring at the mirror-like elevator door. "I’m not so hard up that I can’t afford a hotel. The nearby hotel prices should be acceptable. I’ll stay in a hotel!" Before she finished speaking, the elevator stopped on the 31st floor. Jing Jihan directly took her luggage and walked out, obviously ignoring what she had just said. Shi Su walked out with heavy steps, her mind filled with thoughts of what to do if Jing Jihan really wanted her to stay at his place—should she make him sleep on the sofa, or should she sleep on the sofa herself? Or maybe his place was big enough and had other beds. But what on earth would it mean for her to stay at his place? Back then, he was injured and she had no choice but to take him in. The situation now was completely different! She’s heard countless stories about powerful tycoons, domineering CEOs plotting against starlets, and for a moment, Shi Su’s steps became even heavier. She didn’t even have time to take in the surroundings, nor did she notice the apartment on this floor was a single unit. It wasn’t until Jing Jihan opened the door with a code and gestured for her to enter that Shi Su reluctantly peeked in through the doorway. The apartment was clean and simply decorated in a Nordic style. The main color scheme was blue, gray, and white. All the furniture was brand new, and it didn’t look like anyone had lived here. The rooms were regularly cleaned and well-maintained. Two pairs of new indoor slippers, still in their plastic wrap, were placed on the doormat. She was stunned. Was this not where he lived? Shi Su turned her gaze towards the man standing outside, seemingly not planning to enter: "Here...?" Jing Jihan casually slid her suitcase into the door. It was late, and she indeed needed to rest early. He didn’t enter, standing with one hand in his pants pocket outside the door: "The door lock code is the last six digits of your phone number. You can change the password anytime, remember to record a fingerprint tomorrow, and get some rest early." Shi Su heard his words and watched the man who seemed ready to leave. Without thinking, she blurted out, "Can I really stay here?" She really wasn’t thinking. What she meant was, could she really stay in such a large apartment in a place like Kaixing Mansion? Jing Jihan glanced back at her: "There’s no cockroach, rest assured." With that, his tall and erect figure stepped directly into the elevator. The sound of the elevator door opening and closing was very quiet. Shi Su still stood at the door and hadn’t gone in, unaware that the elevator stopped after going up only one floor. Forget it, it’s already so late. Better to go with the flow. She went inside and casually closed the door. The lights in the room were on, and there was a large floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. The windows were clear and bright. From her position in front of the door, she could see the night view of Jiang City outside, and the neon lights of the bustling city center. Shi Su dragged her suitcase in as she looked around, finding the apartment really large, probably over 500 square meters. All the rooms were well-arranged with clear classifications, two master bedrooms, five guest bedrooms, and also a study, a walk-in closet, and a gym. The size of the master bedroom was beyond mention; the bathroom alone was much larger than the master bedroom in her home. Although this apartment seemed to have never been lived in, not only was it clean, but it also had all the necessary living essentials, from indoor slippers to quilts and blankets. Even the toiletries in the bathroom were new, as were the utensils in the kitchen. Shi Su looked thoughtfully at the two double-door refrigerators, walked over, and opened them. They were filled with already-bought fruits and vegetables, and the freezer was well stocked with fresh meats and seafood. It didn’t seem like a last-minute decision for her to stay, but rather everything had been prepared for her in advance. She accidentally sent the wrong WeChat message to him last time... Standing in the kitchen looking at the filled refrigerator, Shi Su had previously planned to stay for one night and then find another place the next day. Suddenly, she had no choice but to appreciate the gesture. After all, Jing Jihan wasn’t just from an ordinary family with only a house and a car. As the head of Yu Jing Group, his wealth fluctuated every second. His net worth increased every second, possibly more than the pay she would earn from laboriously completing a film. The exact figure was even difficult to estimate. Such an apartment in the city center, unless she skyrocketed in fame in the industry, landing high-end luxury advertisements one after another, she might be able to get a loan to buy such a place in a few years. But to him, this might just be a drop in the bucket among his private assets. Jing Jihan was right; it’s a life-saving friendship. She didn’t want the money, and she wouldn’t accept the things, but since she couldn’t find a better place to live now, providing her with a place to stay was only natural. And it was just temporary accommodation. As soon as she found a suitable place to stay, she could move out anytime. Shi Su stood in front of the refrigerator, looking at it for a long moment, before finally mentally preparing herself to feel at ease as she took a banana from inside, peeling it as she walked out of the kitchen. Standing in front of the two bedroom doors, she looked at them before choosing one she liked. After finishing the banana, she dragged her suitcase inside. After tidying up her luggage and taking a shower in the master bedroom, it was nearly midnight. Exhausted, Shi Su lay back on the bed. She had only taken a quick shower in the bathroom, as it was too late. The large massage bathtub kept tempting her. Tomorrow night, she definitely had to take a soak! Just as she was about to sleep, she remembered her phone still needed charging, so she got up to get the charging cable from her suitcase. Picking up her phone, she noticed Jing Jihan had sent her a WeChat message. Jing Jihan: [Good night.] The message had been sent over an hour ago, while she was busy organizing her clothes into the master bedroom cabinet and hadn’t checked her phone.
