Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Absolutely Cannot Fall Asleep First

Translator: 549690339

In the bedroom.

Qin Youxuan lay at the end of the bed, her face towards the room door, just like usual, she was buried in the blankets reading some materials.

When she encountered something she didn’t understand, she would habitually bite the end of her pen, her cherry lips pouting around the pen cap, a motion that was both playful and slightly casual.

It was almost eleven o’clock. She was wounded and had received such a shock. To be honest, her eyelids were struggling to stay open. She was dozing off.

But Dan Hanjie hadn’t returned yet. If she fell asleep and he came back… Wouldn’t she be oblivious to whatever he might do?

That was too unsettling!

“I’d rather die than fall asleep first!” Qin Youxuan quietly encouraged herself, putting even more effort into studying the materials, trying to immerse herself in the operation report of Qin Group.

In this aspect, Yao wasn’t exaggerating at all. The materials Dan Hanjie had prepared for her were much more comprehensive than anything she had seen at Qin Group. There were even some internal documents that only a Chief Executive Officer was privy to. She had no idea how he got his hands on these.

Qin Youxuan flicked her pen around, occasionally knocking it against her head as a reminder to herself that she had to ask him at some point.

Such confidential documents were available to Dan Hanjie from Qin Group. If one day he got upset, could he ruin Qin Group within minutes?

Having her economic lifeline in someone else’s hands felt too risky!

Little by little, Qin Youxuan had completely forgotten that she was at the mercy of others, engrossed in taking in all of Yao’s intelligence.

Her petite body unknowingly rolled towards the edge of the giant bed. Her fair legs were exposed beyond the knee, swinging lightly in the air, appearing very content.

Her mouth was busy with the pen cap, her dazzling eyes flicking across the documents, every now and then marking two circles on the document in excitement.

Even when Dan Hanjie returned to the room, she was completely unaware.

“Didn’t you say you were tired? Why aren’t you sleeping? Are you waiting for me?” Dan Hanjie leaned against the door frame, admiring her natural grace for a while. A good moment passed before he finally spoke in a soft tone.

The comment Yao had made flashed across his mind.

She was the only person who could freely enter Jin Chenye’s private apartment. What is she doing in Jin Chenye’s private apartment at night?

Could Jin Chenye also see her attractive figure when he returned to his room?

Dan Hanjie’s eyes dimmed, his gaze becoming chilling…

“Ah…!”

Qin Youxuan rolled quickly to a sitting position on the bed. The movement was so sudden that her ankle hit the bedside table, causing her to grimace in pain.

“You’re like a ghost, moving without making any sound. You scared me to death!”

“With such a small courage, how have you managed to survive until now?” Dan Hanjie raised an eyebrow, walked over to the bed and picked her up into his arms. “Where did you hit? Let me see.”

“I, I’m fine… Just keep your distance, that would be better.” Qin Youxuan moved a little bit with her hips, about to crawl out of his embrace, but was stopped by Dan Hanjie.

“Don’t move!”

It was so late in the night and they were alone, this close proximity was not good!

What if he lost control and twisted things around, insisting that she initiated it?

“I just hit my ankle, I’m fine. But you’re holding me so tight, I can’t breathe!” Qin Youxuan murmured, her small hand nervously gripping the bed sheet.

Just as she was about to get up, Dan Hanjie’s handsome face leaned over from behind, pressing against her ear.

“How can’t you breathe?”

His hot breath blew into her ear, warm and ticklish…
