is mother and only needs to maintain a marriage with Fu Mo'han for one year, at that time whether Lin Ruochu wakes up or not, she can choose to divorce. 。 Xu Rongan looked at Lin Jinran's obedient ap..."Creak." The door was pushed open.

The maid's figure appeared at the door, and seeing Lin Jinran standing in front of the desk, she showed a surprised expression. "Miss Lin"

Lin Jinran, pretending to be calm, raised the white paper and brush in his hand and smiled faintly, “I found some paper and brushes to draw, but there wasn’t any space in my bedroom, so I came here.”

The maid glanced at the pen and paper in her hand, nodded, and said, "I'm sorry, we didn't think this through, Miss Lin. What kind of pen and paper do you need I can get it for you."

"No, these are enough." Lin Jinran declined the maid's offer and walked out from behind the desk, "I'm going back."

"Okay." The maid moved aside.

Lin Jinran nodded at her and walked out of the study, heading towards her room.

Standing at the door, she reached out to grasp the doorknob, but from the corner of her eye, she noticed the maid standing in the doorway of the study, staring intently at her.

Lin Jinran calmly twisted the doorknob and pushed open the bedroom door, then closed it behind her.

Leaning against the door panel, Lin Jinran let out a long sigh of relief. His heart was pounding wildly, his whole body trembling. He had been so close to being discovered.

It's no big deal to take the blueprints, but Lin Jinyan didn't want to attract the maid's attention, lest she report to Mu Shaocheng and guess her intentions.

Lin Jinran took out the folded drawing from her sleeve and moved to the desk. She unfolded the drawing and laid it on the table, pulled up a chair and sat down to study it seriously.

The maid in the study saw her close the bedroom door, turned and walked into the study. She glanced at the documents on the desk before leaving the study.

The bedroom was deathly silent.

Lin Jinyan sat in a chair, his head bowed as he intently studied the house locations on the blueprint.

Suddenly, a loud knock sounded at the door, "Knock knock knock."

This startled Lin Jinran, she straightened up and turned toward the bedroom door, cautiously asking, "Who"

The maid's voice rang out from outside the door, "Miss Lin, it's me."

Lin Jinran let out a sigh of relief, got up and neatly folded the drawings, pulled open the drawer and threw them in.

She then walked towards the door, unlocked it and opened it, looking at the maid outside.

"Is something the matter"

The maid said, "Miss Lin, I see that the light in your bedroom is still on. I'll bring you a warm cup of milk to help you sleep."

Lin Jinyan lowered his gaze to look at the maid. The milk in her tray was steaming, and he picked up the cup with his uninjured hand, "Thank you."

The maid urged again, "Miss Lin, it's getting late. You should get some rest early."

"I know, when I finish the milk, I'll go to sleep."

"Excuse me."

He latched the door again, Lin Jinran walked back to the desk with a steaming cup and placed it on the table.

She reached out and pulled open the drawer, her eyes gazing down at the folded blueprints inside before quietly pushing it shut.

Well, I'll take a look tomorrow. Otherwise, the maid will remind me again in a while.

He turned off the lights, and in the silvery glow of the moonlight streaming through the window, Lin Jinran walked to the bed, lay down, and closed his eyes.

The next day.

A misty rain fell incessantly, shrouding the unfinished villas in a hazy veil. Their outlines were barely discernible, like a faint ink wash painting.

Lin Jin stood silently by the floor-to-ceiling window, her expression indifferent as she looked out at the light rain. Her tranquil face gave nothing away about her emotions.

As if everything around her was unrelated, and as if she were in an out-of-this-world peace and tranquility.

Until the voices outside her door pulled her back from her wandering thoughts.eeks flushed, she didn't expect Ye Xiao to say that at this time. A touch of tension eased from her heart.She tilted her head, gazing into the man's deep black eyes, her reason gradually returning.Ye...
