Qiao Yanze suddenly chuckled. He found it amusing.

Coincidentally, Su Xintian walked down the stairs after changing her clothes. She walked very softly and looked like she wanted to sneak away, but Qiao Yanze had already seen her.

“Come here, Su Xintian!” He ordered coldly.

Su Xintian walked over and smiled awkwardly at everyone before sitting down on the last sofa.

“What happened last night?” Qiao Yanze asked coldly.

“It was an accident last night…” Su Xintian smiled bitterly. “President Qiao, you drank too much. I sent you home, but you refused to let me go when I put you on the bed. You kept calling out a name…”

She then looked at Li Yinian.

Qiao Yanze’s eyes dimmed. “Are you saying I slept with you last night?”

Su Xintian was tongue-tied. She looked at Li Yinian and shook her head. “No… No. President Qiao fell asleep later. I couldn’t move because of you, so I could only sleep the entire night…”

However, her explanation sounded like she was trying to cover it up under Qiao Yanze’s instructions.

Qiao Yanze’s face turned colder. He stared at Su Xintian as if he was pondering something.

“Um… President Qiao, I’ll leave first if there’s nothing else.” Su Xintian pursed her lips. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep what happened last night a secret.”

“Don’t worry.” Qiao Yanze chuckled and looked at Li Yinian. “Do you trust her?”

Li Yinian’s eyelashes fluttered, she paused and shook her head. “I don’t believe it. If it’s really like what she said, why were you guys naked when I went in?”

Su Xintian explained, “President Qiao vomited after midnight, so I…”

“You don’t have to explain,” Qiao Yanze interrupted her calmly, still looking at Li Yinian. “Then, would you believe me if I said I didn’t touch her at all?”

Li Yinian was dazed. She stared at him with her dark eyes filled with shock. Perhaps she still had some obscure emotions, but that emotion disappeared in a flash.

“How is that possible?” Her voice was hoarse.

“I drank a lot at the cocktail party yesterday, so I was completely drunk,” Qiao Yanze said coldly. “I couldn’t have gotten hard at all when I was that drunk. You should know that better than anyone.”

Li Yinian bit her lips and looked at his collar bone. The red marks had faded a bit, and they weren’t as bright as before, but it was still impossible to ignore.

Qiao Yanze seemed to realize something from her gaze. He smiled and said, “You don’t believe me. Or rather, you’d rather I really sleep with her, wouldn’t you?”

The man’s self-deprecation and bleakness hit her.

Li Yinian felt her eyes burning. She said, “Qiao Yanze, no matter what you say, I only believe what I see.”

Qiao Yanze stared at her silently. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and picked up the cigarette box and lighter. He took out another cigarette and lit it up.

“You can leave now,” he said without looking up.

After a brief silence, Su Xintian stood up from the chair and said, “Goodbye, Mr. Qiao.”

She then grabbed her bag and ran out.
