Chapter 237 Do you think I'm weird?
Qin Reng's presence was too strong; his breathing, his heartbeat, and the faint scent of mint on him were all impossible for her to ignore.
“Qin Reng…” Yu Yuetong spoke again.
"Hmm?" Qin Reng's voice was lazy and deep.
"You..." Yu Yuetong hesitated, "...Are you...?"
She wanted to ask Qin Reng if he liked her, but she didn't dare to ask.
If the answer is no, wouldn't she have been presumptuous?
"Is it something?" Qin Reng pressed.
Yu Yuetong bit her lip, but ultimately didn't dare to ask.
"Don't you think I'm weird?" Qin Reng said it for her.
Yu Yuetong remained silent for a moment, then nodded gently.
Qin Reng chuckled and reached out to ruffle Yu Yuetong's hair. "It is indeed a bit strange."
Yu Yuetong: "..."
What kind of answer is this?
"Alright, go to sleep." Qin Reng's voice carried a hint of amusement. "I have to go to the company tomorrow."
Yu Yuetong took a deep breath, trying her best to stop thinking about these messy things.
Regardless of Qin Reng's intentions, her most important task now is to handle the company's affairs properly.
As for the rest... let's take it one step at a time.
Yu Yuetong convinced herself and gradually drifted off to sleep.
Qin Reng listened to the even breathing of the person in his arms, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
He gently hugged Yu Yuetong tightly and closed his eyes.
Even in the darkness, his mind remained clear.
Ji Momo...
This woman is like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.
He had to find out her purpose as soon as possible in order to protect Yu Yuetong... and himself.
Suddenly, Qin Reng opened his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.
He recalled what Yu Yuetong had said to Ji Momo at the company earlier that day…
"Miss Ji, are you alright?"
"Shall I help you to the lounge to rest for a while?"
"Drink some hot water, be careful not to catch a cold..."
These words, on the surface, sound very concerned, but upon closer examination, they are quite profound.
Is Yu Yuetong trying to sow discord between him and Ji Momo?
Qin Reng's heart sank.
If Yu Yuetong really intended to do this, what was her purpose?
Why did she do this?
Was it to help him? Or... was there ulterior motive?
As Qin Reng was thinking, Yu Yuetong suddenly rolled over in his arms, pressing her entire body against his chest. Her breath gently brushed against his neck, making him stiffen.
"Qin Reng..." Yu Yuetong murmured in her sleep, her voice soft and sweet, "Don't be angry..."
Qin Reng's heart skipped a beat. He looked down at Yu Yuetong's sleeping face; moonlight shone through the gaps in the curtains, making her look exceptionally gentle.
Just then, Yu Yuetong's phone suddenly vibrated. Qin Reng frowned and reached for the phone on the bedside table.
It's a text message.
Sender: Ji Momo.
"Mr. Yu, could we speak privately tomorrow? I have something I'd like to discuss with you regarding today's events."
Qin Reng's eyes instantly turned cold. He glanced at Yu Yuetong, who was fast asleep in his arms, and gently swiped his finger across the phone screen.
"No need. For work-related matters, just contact my assistant directly."
After sending the message, Qin Reng immediately blocked Ji Momo's number.
He put down his phone, only to find that Yu Yuetong had woken up at some point and was looking at him with her big, watery eyes.
"Are you looking at my phone?" Yu Yuetong's voice was languid.
Qin Reng did not deny it, "Ji Momo sent you a message."
"Oh..." Yu Yuetong yawned, "What did you reply?"
"Tell her to find an assistant in the future."
Yu Yuetong was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Are you jealous?"
Qin Reng tightened his grip on her arm. "What do you think?"
Yu Yuetong's heart suddenly raced. She looked up at Qin Reng and found his eyes unusually deep.
"I..." Yu Yuetong was about to speak when Qin Reng suddenly leaned down and gently pecked her lips.
"Go to sleep," he said in a low, gentle voice. "We have to get up early tomorrow."
Yu Yuetong's face flushed instantly. She buried her head in Qin Reng's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat.
At that moment, she suddenly felt that perhaps there really was something inexplicable between her and Qin Reng.
Little did she know that at this tender moment, Ji Momo was standing in front of the hotel's floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the "blocked" notification on her phone with a cold look in her eyes.
“Yu Yuetong…” she said softly, “Do you really think you can take Qin Reng away from me?”
She picked up her phone and dialed a number.
"Hey, Young Master Qin Yu..."
“Young Master Qin Yu, I think you must be very interested in what happened today.” Ji Momo’s voice carried a hint of calculation. “There seems to be something not quite right between Yu Yuetong and Qin Reng.”
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a cold laugh: "Go on."
“Today at the company, I noticed that Qin Reng looked at Yu Yuetong very differently. And…” Ji Momo bit her lip, “Their behavior was also very strange, as if… they had switched identities.”
"Switch identities?" Qin Yu's voice was laced with sarcasm. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
“I know this sounds absurd, but don’t you think Qin Reng’s behavior has changed a lot lately?” Ji Momo walked to the window, gazing at the neon-lit night scene in the distance. “Qin Reng used to never show that gentle expression to anyone, but today…”
"Continue." Qin Yu's tone suddenly turned serious.
“Moreover, Yu Yuetong’s way of handling company affairs is completely different now, it’s like she’s a different person,” Ji Momo said softly. “Don’t you find that strange?”
There was silence on the other end of the phone again.
“Young Master Qin Yu, I think this might be an opportunity,” Ji Momo’s voice was seductive. “If we can find their weakness…”
"how do you want to do it?"
“I need your help.” Ji Momo gave a meaningful smile. “I will give you a surprise at the board meeting tomorrow.”
Meanwhile, at the Qin family's old residence.
Old Master Qin sat in his study, toying with an antique jade pendant in his hand. He had received it from a fortune teller in his youth; it was said to possess the miraculous power to communicate with spirits and exchange souls. At the time, he had only considered it an ornament, never expecting…
"Grandpa, you wanted to see me?" Qin Yu pushed open the door and entered, a respectful smile on his face.
"Sit down." Old Master Qin put down the jade pendant, his eyes deep. "What do you think of Qin Reng lately?"
A glint of light flashed in Qin Yu's eyes: "Is Grandpa worried that he's not good enough for Yu Yuetong?"
"You know I've always had higher hopes for you," Old Master Qin sighed, "but I never imagined things would turn out this way..."
"Grandpa, actually I just received some very interesting news." Qin Yu leaned closer and lowered his voice, "It's about Qin Reng and Yu Yuetong..."
Just then, there was a knock on the study door.
"Come in," Old Master Qin said in a deep voice.
The butler pushed open the door and entered: "Master, Madam asked me to tell you that tomorrow's board meeting will be held at nine o'clock in the morning."
"Understood." Old Master Qin waved his hand.
After the butler left, Qin Yu continued, "Grandpa, do you still remember that legendary jade pendant that could swap souls?"
Old Master Qin's hand suddenly stopped.
