Chapter 123: Everything Wins
Chapter 123
Outside the dormitory door, Li Zhen took out her keys and turned to make a shushing gesture at Lu Yanming behind her.
"So cautious?" Lu Yanming said amusedly.
Li Zhen said seriously, "If my roommate finds out I brought the vice president of the group back in the middle of the night, the whole company will know by tomorrow."
Only after entering the bedroom did Li Zhen breathe a sigh of relief.
Lu Yanming took out his laptop and opened the contents he had copied onto it.
Li Zhen hurried over to take a look.
But after looking back and forth several times, it was all just his business contracts, some company information, things like that.
"President Lu, where's the USB drive from the safe?"
"Here it is." Lu Yanming handed it to her.
Li Zhen plugged it into the computer, but when she opened the files it prompted for a password, "Still can't open it."
Her mother's video was most likely inside.
Li Zhen both wanted to open it immediately to watch, but also felt a bit afraid in her heart.
The room was very small, with the computer on a narrow vanity, and there was only one chair.
Lu Yanming had originally been standing to the side, but now that he needed to sit down and help Li Zhen take a look, he scooped her up into his embrace and sat down.
Held in his arms, Li Zhen's body stiffened for a moment.
Lu Yanming lazily rested his chin on Li Zhen's straight shoulders, his gaze focused intently on the computer screen.
With a few deft motions of his hand on the keyboard, more code appeared on the computer.
Two minutes later, Lu Yanming shook his head, "No good, the file has a self-destruct program. Forcing it open will automatically delete it."
Li Zhen: "Then we'll talk about it when I'm able to guess or ask for the password."
She realized she still wasn't ready to see what her mother looked like.

When Lu Yanming said it couldn't be opened, she even breathed a secret sigh of relief.
"Then you should head back, President Lu, it's quite late today." Li Zhen said, preparing to get up.
But the person behind her didn't let go of his hold.
"Zhen Zhen, when are you moving back?"
"In a few days." Li Zhen calculated that her ovulation period would be in a few days.
"Good." Lu Yanming's response was casual.
He released one hand and started unbuttoning his shirt.
Li Zhen was shocked, "President Lu, what do you mean by this?"
"You're not moving back for a few more days right? So we're staying here for now, aren't we?" Lu Yanming's voice was low and husky, his light-colored eyes looking at her with a hint of laughter, "So now we should sleep."
His hands kept moving, continuing to unbutton his shirt.
Under the dim yellow light of the ceiling lamp above their heads, the faint bulge of Lu Yanming's chest muscles was reluctantly illuminated.
His muscles were toned but not excessive.
It was a smooth, elegant aesthetic.
Li Zhen hurriedly shifted her gaze, "But you don't live here, President Lu."
"Where one's wife resides, so does the husband." Lu Yanming responded casually.
He grabbed one of Li Zhen's hands and pressed it against the unfinished shirt buttons, "I was busy working for you all evening, I'm tired now."
"Zhen Zhen, help me take this off, okay?"
Lu Yanming deliberately lowered his voice.
In the quiet room, his already attractive voice seeped into her ears, far too bewitching.
Li Zhen's scalp tingled at the sound.
Her palm was pressed under his hand, half on the buttons and half on his firm chest.
Li Zhen's heart thumped wildly as she realized Lu Yanming was teasing her again!
She quickly retracted her hand, "President Lu, I know what you're thinking, but don't think about it yet! I don't have any..."
Li Zhen didn't finish her sentence.
From his pants pocket, Lu Yanming took out five condoms, "You mean these? I brought them."
Li Zhen's eyes widened in shock.
The same excuse clearly wouldn't fool him twice.
And he brought five!
Lu Yanming chuckled lightly, "You don't seem satisfied with the amount, should I have brought more?"
"No, President Lu, I meant could we wait..."
Lu Yanming impatiently kissed her.
Only after kissing her softly until the strength left her waist, rendering Li Zhen completely unable to resist, did he release her.
"Can't wait, I've been waiting for days already, Zhen Zhen." Lu Yanming's breath grew hotter as he lowered his head again to kiss her fair neck.
The desire he had suppressed for days was thick and fierce.
Her eyes turned red, and she tried to pry the man's hand away, but was utterly unable to budge it.
The complete control over her emotions brought Lu Yanming indescribable pleasure.
Recently, Yu Xing had been acting out, first by resigning, then removing himself from the family tree.
These past few days, he had been anxious, fearing Yu Xing might make a move. He didn't know how much weight he carried in Li Zhen's heart.
He was tense all the time, watching over her and guarding her.
Afraid that one day he might blink and she would be snatched away by Yu Xing again.
This constant fear and insecurity was killing him.
He murmured in Li Zhen's ear, "Zhen Zhen, let's move back tomorrow, okay?"
Li Zhen's lips were as red as dripping blood, she could no longer speak clearly, "President Lu...you shouldn't always bully me, okay...I can never win against you, I'm unhappy."
"Not at all, Zhen Zhen is the most capable, the perpetual winner." Lu Yanming couldn't look enough at the woman in his arms.
He looked at her reddened eyes, her delicate nose, her restless heaving chest.
These words touched a fragile nerve in Li Zhen, and she murmured self-deprecatingly, "From birth I was dealt a losing hand, nothing goes smoothly, I always lose..."
The words left Li Zhen's mouth and even she was startled by them.
She rarely showed weakness, but recently she couldn't help revealing abrupt dependence and trust in Lu Yanming before her.
It was as if she could tell him about any grievance, and there would be a proper and steady foothold.
Lu Yanming was silent for a moment.
He knew of Li Zhen's past, knew how difficult it had been for her.
Growing up without her parents' love and care, then being alone outside at such a young age, facing all kinds of difficulties.
Her birth forced her to bear far too much ridicule and malice from the world.
Yet she was like a plum blossom that even wind and snow could not destroy. Concealing deep unspeakable scars, in the winter she bloomed the most vibrant and proud flower.
Lu Yanming's heart ached terribly for her. He kissed her lightly again and again, "Zhen Zhen, you have me from now on."
He said, "I will make you win at everything."
Li Zhen slowly opened her eyes, they were suddenly somewhat wet, "President Lu..."
After always walking through storms, recently there was always someone holding an umbrella for her.
Her slender snow-white arms embraced Lu Yanming, and she buried her head in his chest, not wanting him to see those few untimely tears.
This feeling was strange, as if being cradled in someone's hand.
He was probably the world's best husband...
Lu Yanming's heart melted into a puddle.
But his body remained taut.
He didn't dare take the next step, his desire pulsating restlessly, waiting for Li Zhen's reaction.
But the next second, a soft little hand grasped him.
Lu Yanming's abdomen tightened sharply.
Li Zhen nuzzled away her tears on his chest, her attractive moist eyes looking up to meet his gaze.
"Zhen Zhen, can I now?" Lu Yanming's voice was hoarse beyond belief.
Li Zhen nodded.
But soon regretted it.
Five, he did in fact use every single one.
