Lin Dongyang leaned against Qiao Yichen and fell asleep again. Hearing his steady breathing, Qiao Yichen said softly, “Let’s sleep.”
Qiao Yichen rarely had the habit of going back to sleep after waking up, but this time he wanted to be lazy and sleep with the person in his arms until they woke up naturally and they could see each other as soon as they opened their eyes.
Qiao Yichen was woken up by the sound of his mobile phone vibrating. He picked up the phone but when he saw the word ‘Mom’ he couldn’t help clenching his fists. He walked to the balcony to answer the phone and the first words he heard made the warmth of his whole morning disappear.
Ye Lin: “You broke your promise.”
Qiao Yichen was silent for a long time. “I know.”
When he returned to the bedroom, Qiao Yichen stroked Lin Dongyang’s hair and whispered, “Sorry, I can’t stay with you anymore.” The idea of going out for a walk with you has to be put on hold.
“Where are you going?” The person who had been sleeping suddenly opened his mouth to inquire, without any tiredness in his voice.
Qiao Yichen didn’t hide it, and told Lin Dongyang that he was going to his family’s company for an internship, but he didn’t say why he was going. Lin Dongyang only thought that Qiao Yichen, as the son of the company’s chairman, must have a reason for going.
“Go ahead, I’ll go back to school by myself.”
“Sorry.” For leaving you alone.
“What’s there to be sorry about?” In the early morning, Lin Dongyang wasn’t stingy with his smile, and he was very considerate.
Qiao Yichen opened the wardrobe to get out a change of clothes, but when he saw the white dress that Lin Dongyang had avoided like a snake and scorpion yesterday, his thoughts were directly dragged back to the events of yesterday noon. Then he unexpectedly leaned against the wardrobe and laughed out loud.
Lin Dongyang saw him and blushed in shame. He immediately exploded, “Don’t mention that matter again, please forget it!” It was simply a part of his unbearable dark history. Not only was he made fun of, but he was also suppressed without the ability to fight back. Qiao Yichen even lifted his skirt, touching him without shame as he said, “You look so good!” What f*cking good?!!
“It’s engraved in my mind, I can’t forget it.”
Lin Dongyang threw over a pillow in anger.
Qiao Yichen changed his clothes, and then gave Lin Dongyang both the apartment key and his car keys, saying that it would be more convenient for him to go back to school this way. However, Lin Dongyang didn’t think the same as him, for fear that Qiao Yichen would be late, he was reluctant to take the car keys.
“Go quickly, don’t be late to report on your first day.” Lin Dongyang urged him.
After Qiao Yichen left, Lin Dongyang laid on the bed staring at the ceiling. He hadn’t really been disturbed but he also wasn’t sleepy at all. After getting up he took a shower, and then went into the kitchen to clean up and put away the dishes because he was bored.

Since when had Qiao Yichen infiltrated his life so much?
Ultimately, unable to sit still any longer, Lin Dongyang finally stepped out of the apartment. With a ‘bang’, the door closed, and his restless nerves calmed down.
He seemed to have forgotten to take the key…
In a panic, he turned his coat pockets inside out. In the end, he really wanted to find a corner to crouch in and cry for a while, he really hadn’t taken the key!
He bumped his head remorsefully against the door. Fortunately, his mobile phone was still on him. He sent a message to Qiao Yichen, asking him if he would come back in the evening, but he waited for a long time and there was no reply.
Lin Dongyang thought that Qiao Yichen must be busy. He lingered at the door for a while but he still didn’t get a reply, so finally he called Qiao Yichen. After more than ten seconds of ringing, someone finally answered, and Lin Dongyang breathed a sigh of relief.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Yichen asked.
“Are you coming back tonight?”
“I should be going straight back to school, what happened?” Qiao Yichen clearly sensed that this wasn’t what he wanted to ask.
Lin Dongyang smiled awkwardly and replied, “It’s just… I accidentally left the key in the apartment and now I’m locked outside. Can I go find you?” If he hadn’t also left his dormitory key inside the apartment, he would have just gone straight back to school. Then he wouldn’t have had to go through the extra effort of finding Qiao Yichen to get the apartment key, and then coming back to the apartment to pick up his dormitory key.
“You’re so stupid. I’ll send you a location, come here and then give me a call. I might not have the time to see your message.”
“Okay.” Before hanging up, Lin Dongyang also heard an urgent voice from Qiao Yichen’s end, but he didn’t hear it clearly. He was really busy ah.
Lin Dongyang got into a taxi at the gate of the community, and told the driver the location.
“You young people have very promising future prospects ah, working in such a big company.” The driver, who looked like a man in his thirties, seemed quite talkative, and he was the first to compliment when he heard the address.
Lin Dongyang smiled, “I’m going there to look for a friend.”
“Hey, then this friend of yours is really great. This big company is the best in the city. If not for the fact that they don’t accept school interns, I would want my son to try his luck in an interview.”
Lin Dongyang was slightly flabbergasted, “They don’t accept school interns?”
The driver broke the ice and talked eloquently, revealing a lifetime’s worth of knowledge on the Qiao company, “Yes, those who can sit in that company must have work experience in addition to higher education. I have a buddy whose son works at that company, and he earns nearly 20,000 a month just for sitting in the office every day ah, it’s amazing!”
Lin Dongyang ‘paid no attention to outside matters, only reading the books of the sages’. He knew very little about this kind of thing. Hearing the driver say this now, made him sigh and feel a little bit proud. He was proud that his boyfriend turned out to be so amazing.
When the taxi stopped at the location, Lin Dongyang looked at the skyscraper in front of him and realized that what the driver had said was really not an exaggeration.
The office was an entire building ah!
As early as Qiao Weiwei’s birthday party, Lin Dongyang had realized that he and Qiao Yichen weren’t from the same world at all. Lin Dongyang told himself that he also didn’t lack anything ah. He had a good appearance, his figure also wasn’t bad, his family was harmonious and he didn’t have to worry about food and clothes. But if he had to compare himself to Qiao Yichen, he was really a small coin that had bumped into a treasury, and had immediately deteriorated into a slum.
But then, why did he still agree to be with Qiao Yichen? It was simply a fruitless thing ah.
Lin Dongyang didn’t tell Qiao Yichen he had arrived straight away, instead he just wandered around to kill time. He was already bored at home before coming out, so he bought a pack of cigarettes while he was walking, and then he called Qiao Yichen to tell him that he was downstairs.
He squatted next to the flower bed like a fool with no concern for his image, smoking a cigarette with a heavy heart, and watching a worm crawl aimlessly on the ground until a shadow enveloped him.
Qiao Yichen frowned, looking at Lin Dongyang squatting on the ground with slight displeasure, as he said, “You still smoke.”
Lin Dongyang put out the cigarette and stood up. He stretched out his hand to fan the smell of smoke away, and said playfully, “Don’t frown at me, you’re too serious, I’m afraid~”
Smelling the pungent smell, Qiao Yichen turned a deaf ear to the gentle words that were tinged with a spoiled tone. He reached into Lin Dongyang’s trouser pocket and pulled out the pack of cigarettes from inside.
“I’m confiscating this.”
“Your control is so wide. Then, if we have to live together every day in the future, wouldn’t you have to pinch me to death?” Lin Dongyang didn’t stop him, allowing Qiao Yichen to smoothly take away the cigarettes he had just bought. It was a pity that he had only smoked one, and the rest were definitely going to be thrown into the garbage by Qiao Yichen.
“I don’t care to control anything else that you do. I will buy you whatever you want to eat, but don’t smoke this, it’s not good.” Qiao Yichen educated him in a serious manner, but his tone sounded like he was coaxing a child and it was like he was saying, ‘If you listen to me, I will buy you candy’. Lin Dongyang was stunned and then laughed. Qiao Yichen’s expression darkened again, and Lin Dongyang immediately began to smooth his hair, “Okay, okay, I’ll give you control. I’ll listen to you, okay? Where’s the key?”
Qiao Yichen handed him the key and said, “If you forget it again, you will have to call a locksmith company.”
Lin Dongyang took it, “Am I stupid enough to make the same mistake twice?”
“Looks like it.”
“… D*mn!” Lin Dongyang didn’t continue to argue with him, “Go in, you should be quite busy on your first day of work.”
Qiao Yichen gave an ‘En’. Although he was a bit reluctant to leave, he really didn’t have any extra time to chat here, so he said goodbye. He had just taken two steps back when Lin Dongyang called out to him, “Wait, there is something that I forgot to say. You are really handsome today.”
“It’s the company dress code.” Qiao Yichen pursed his lips and pretended to be indifferent, but he quietly straightened out the folds of his suit cuffs, hypocritically showing off his charm to Lin Dongyang.
“This is the second time I’ve seen you in formal wear. Your tie is crooked.” Lin Dongyang straightened it out for him, and then took a few steps back to examine it before nodding in satisfaction.
“Then, I will go in.” Qiao Yichen extremely enjoyed the service just now, and the strictness that he had tried to put up nearly collapsed. He almost wanted to hug Lin Dongyang at the door of the company, regardless of the other eyes.
Lin Dongyang slipped the key ring onto his index finger and spun it in a circle. “Go ahead.” After Qiao Yichen turned around, Lin Dongyang looked up at the top of the building, and the sunlight stung his eyes a little.
Can he reach such a height?
Qiao Yichen was full of joy when he returned to the office, and even the sound of his footsteps signaled his happiness. But just a few seconds after sitting down, Ye Lin came over to stand behind Qiao Yichen in her high-heels, however, he was completely unaware of her.
Today Director Ye came to the staff office area from time to time to take a look around. Since the day had started she had already come four or five times. The other employees were trembling in fear. They were afraid that this powerful woman, who was their superior, was out to catch the people who were slacking off.
Ye Lin stood behind Qiao Yichen, and seeing that he was distracted, she thought that he might have encountered some difficulties at work. Although she was a bit demanding, in the end he was her own son, and she couldn’t just ignore him, so she asked, “Can you adapt to the working environment?”
Qiao Yichen stiffened, obviously shocked. He stood up and replied, “It’s good.”
“What are you thinking so intensely about?” Ye Lin suddenly stepped closer to him and sniffed, “Did you smoke?” She never knew her son could smoke.
Qiao Yichen: “No, it must have come from when I passed by the smoking area just now,” he lied. He didn’t want his parents to know anything about Lin Dongyang, it wasn’t time yet.
Ye Lin didn’t delve deeply into the matter, her gaze went to Qiao Yichen’s office computer, but she inadvertently caught a glimpse of his ring finger. Her son had grown up, and liked to hide little secrets.
“This ring is beautiful.” Her calm composure that she had acquired from being exposed to the business world for a long time meant that you couldn’t hear any waves in her tone.
Qiao Yichen didn’t answer, but his silent and unflinching attitude was enough to reveal his thoughts.
“I won’t ask you, but only if you keep your promise.”
“I will!” This sentence was spoken firmly, as if to swear that he would win.
“Come straight over on future holidays, you won’t have any more comfortable days off. Don’t break your promise,” Ye Lin left after saying that. Qiao Yichen touched the ring on his ring finger, his heart was more resolute than ever.
I will!
What was the promise again?
