Chapter 680: Chapter 718 Workaholic He Fangqing

"Manager Li, I can’t thank you enough. Nana’s father has been released," Wang Qiang excitedly expressed his gratitude to Li Yifei as soon as he arrived at the unit.

Li Yifei was somewhat astonished. He hadn’t expected Wang Qiang’s girlfriend’s father to be released so quickly. This must have been the result of the help he asked from Lin Qiong, and Lin Qiong now obviously had some influence in the Public Security System.

"That’s good to hear. Are you and your girlfriend doing okay?" he asked.

Wang Qiang nodded repeatedly, saying, "We’ve been much better these past two days, and she’s especially happy now that her dad is out. She’s not unhappy like she was a few days ago."

Li Yifei patted Wang Qiang on the shoulder and said, "Then take good care of her. The wounds women suffer can only heal quickly with the care of a loved one."

"I know, I know. That’s why I was hoping to switch shifts with you. This afternoon, I want to go shopping with Nana and her dad to ward off the bad luck."

"Okay then, go ahead. Oh, right. You’re supposed to be on the night shift today, aren’t you?" Li Yifei asked.

"Yeah, I came specifically to take care of this first," Wang Qiang replied.

"You rascal, next time just call me for such things," Li Yifei said.

Switching shifts for security guards was a common occurrence. Li Yifei had intended to arrange for Wang Qiang to switch with someone else, but upon casually asking around, he found everyone else had plans, and in the end, he was the one who had to cover the shift.

Xu Yingying was informed about this in the afternoon, and she naturally offered her support. She had no engagements that night and could go home as usual, just needing to pick up their daughter.

There were three people on the night shift: Li Yifei, Qian Laoshi, and Wu Meng. The company policy prohibited drinking alcohol during the night shift. Li Yifei didn’t want to break the rules, so he just did a routine check around the office. He was responsible for the top two floors while the other two took care of the lower levels.

The lights in the chief financial officer’s office were on. Li Yifei casually pushed open the door and saw He Fangqing intently focused on something, her head bowed.

"I’m working overtime, don’t mind me," He Fangqing said indifferently without looking up from her work.

Lately, the company was at a critical juncture, so she was very busy. Additionally, during this period, she had been feeling quite lonely. When she first arrived in Mile City, even though she was upset, Li Yifei’s presence had quickly helped her get out of the shadow of her failed marriage. But just when her relationship with Li Yifei was heating up, he married Xu Yingying.

Even though she wanted to continue the relationship with Li Yifei, Xu Yingying had even suggested that she help win over Li Yifei’s heart, He Fangqing was well aware of the terror of being the third party in a marriage. She didn’t want to ruin the relationship between Xu Yingying and Li Yifei, so even if she was lonely, she didn’t want to seek out Li Yifei, even though Xu Yingying wouldn’t get angry.

Now, all she could do was work hard, busying herself so much that she would fall asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow, and that way, she wouldn’t feel the loneliness.

It was common for the security to check in on anyone working overtime, and He Fangqing was already used to it. She thought a security guard had come to say hello as usual today, so she casually said a word and continued with her work.

But after a while, two hands suddenly landed on her shoulders, making He Fangqing’s body stiffen. An alarming thought flashed through her mind that she might be in trouble tonight, wondering which brazen security guard was taking advantage of her.

"Relax, I’ll give your shoulders a rub," Li Yifei’s voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

He Fangqing’s originally rigid body instantly relaxed, and without turning her head, she leaned softly against the back of the chair, her head resting against Li Yifei’s chest, and she whispered, "Everyone’s off work now, why did you come here?"

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Seeing you working so hard, I just came to check on you."

"Don’t make it sound so nice, you should be accompanying your wife, oh, don’t tell me you’re on shift?"

"Ha... you guessed right."

"Hmph, otherwise you wouldn’t have thought of me." He Fangqing’s words carried a tinge of sourness.

Li Yifei coughed lightly, finding it really hard to explain, and even if he could, there was no suitable reason. Silence fell between them.

"Work isn’t something that can be finished in one or two days, don’t push yourself too hard, you should rest when it’s time to," Li Yifei finally broke the silence.

He Fangqing sighed, "I don’t really have anything else to do, having some work to do can make me feel fulfilled. Otherwise, facing an empty house every day can drive a person crazy."

Li Yifei felt quite sorry for He Fangqing, this woman, who was the first to bring pleasure to him upon his return to Mile City, and not only in bed, but in other aspects as well, He Fangqing was an excellent woman. His hand involuntarily moved to He Fangqing’s face, and he said, "Fangqing, change your mood a bit, go out and have fun when you have time."

He Fangqing smiled faintly and said, "Forget it, actually, working is also a pretty nice thing. Watching the company gradually get on the right track, with such a promising future, is also very pleasing."

Li Yifei’s hand, placed on He Fangqing’s face, gently caressed her cheek. He Fangqing chuckled again and said, "You shouldn’t touch me like this, it’s not proper for men and women to do so, be careful not to let your wife see, or you’ll be in big trouble."

The moment He Fangqing said this, Li Yifei suddenly picked her up and said, "Haven’t you all agreed that even if Yingying and I get married, you can still sleep with me? Why are you backing out now?"

He Fangqing was startled and hurriedly said, "Yifei, we can’t do this, really we can’t, Yingying is my good friend, it would hurt her if I continued this way." Seeing that Li Yifei was still carrying her toward the couch, He Fangqing pleaded, "Yifei, I can’t betray Yingying, anyone else might, but I can’t, really."

Li Yifei sat He Fangqing on his lap, his arm wrapped around her waist, and with his other hand, he lifted her chin and said, "Are you sure?"

"I... am sure!" He Fangqing’s voice was loud, but her demeanor was clearly not that determined.

Li Yifei, with a mischievous smile, said, "If you’re so sure, why is your body trembling, why are your cheeks red, and why is your breathing so heated?"

"I... My trembling is because I’m afraid you’ll do something to me, my cheeks are red because it’s a bit hot in the room, and my breathing is heated... also because I’m hot."

Li Yifei didn’t respond, but teasingly said, "Is that really the case?"

"True... truly." He Fangqing tried to avoid Li Yifei’s gaze, but he would not let her, keeping his intense stare fixed on her as his face slowly moved closer to hers.

He Fangqing’s breathing became even more rapid, her chest heaving tumultuously, and she weakly said, "Yifei, I... I... Yingying will be angry." But when Li Yifei’s lips finally met hers, her rationality flooded out like a breached dam, beyond her control any longer.
