Chapter 18 Are You Okay?
"What's wrong?"
Qin Yu turned around.
Su Meng must have jogged down the stairs, her full bust still trembling, her eyes filled with lingering fear.
"Can you... protect me tonight?"
Su Meng took a few steps, biting her lip as she asked.
"This..."
Qin Yu scratched his head, looking troubled.
"I'm... scared..."
Su Meng slowly squatted down, sobbing softly, "I don't dare to stay alone, I'm afraid another strange man will appear in the house!"
"Okay... all right!"
The sight of Su Meng with tears rolling down her face made it impossible for Qin Yu to refuse.
"Mmm... don't worry, I don't have a boyfriend, so no one will misunderstand anything!"
Su Meng looked up, blinking her tearful eyes.
"Then... let's go upstairs!"
Qin Yu extended his hand and helped Su Meng to her feet.
After a few steps, looking at the winding staircase, he asked, "Do you need me to carry you?"
"Can you... still do it?"
Su Meng asked, biting her lip.
"How can a man not be able to do it? Come on!"
Qin Yu bent down and, once Su Meng was on his back, he wrapped his arms around her snow-white, smooth thighs and climbed up to the sixth floor again.
"Qin Yu, how did you know there was a stranger in my room?"
After Su Meng opened the door, she asked curiously.
"First, someone marked your wall; none of the other doors had such a mark. Second, there were men's shoe prints on the floor, surely not your boyfriend's. Otherwise, you would have called your boyfriend to carry you.
"So, I figured someone must have broken into your place! If it was just for theft, it would be one thing, but if it was for sexual assault..."
Qin Yu shook his head, not daring to think of the consequences.
"Then I probably... would have no face to stay in this city anymore... Qin Yu, I really thank you for tonight!"

There was also a trace of fright on Su Meng's face.
"It's nothing. By the way, may I check your bathroom and bedroom? I suspect this person has been coveting you, not just for a day or two!"
When Qin Yu entered, the sleazy man was on the sofa, swinging his legs and drinking like he was in his own home.
Had it not been for the man's first reaction to dash for the door upon Qin Yu's entrance, he wouldn't have connected him with a thief.
In other words, the sleazy man must have entered Su Meng's home more than once.
"Um, sure, please check for me. Let me get you a glass of water!"
Su Meng said gratefully.
Subsequently, Qin Yu first went into the bathroom and started a detailed search. Soon, he found a tiny camera hidden behind the socket.
This is trouble!
Qin Yu's heart sank, suspecting that Su Meng's baths and changes of clothes had all been recorded.
"Qin Yu, what did you find? Anything?"
Su Meng, carrying a cup of water, came to the bathroom door as well.
"I found this..."
Qin Yu opened his palm and said with a frown, "No idea how long it's been there, but you usually come home to shower at night, right?"
"What?"
Su Meng's face turned pale, nearly dropping the cup of water, "I... I shower at home every night! Doesn't that mean..."
"Don't panic yet, the things recorded might still be in that sleazy man's possession."
Qin Yu said comfortingly.
"Then... what should we do?"
Su Meng's face was ashen, her speech faltering.
"Let's do this, when he gets out of detention, I'll go find him and make him hand over the footage. For illegal entry, he should be detained for at least three days!"
Qin Yu suggested after some thought.
Such matters are best known to as few people as possible. Since Su Meng didn't have a boyfriend, he would have to help her out himself.
"Okay... okay, Qin Yu, I'm counting on you to retrieve whatever he recorded. If it's leaked, how am I ever going to get married..."
Su Meng was on the verge of tears again as she spoke.
"Let me check your bedroom too!"
After handing the spy equipment to Su Meng, Qin Yu then entered her bedroom.
"I'll tidy up the clothes!"
Su Meng, with her head lowered, hurried to the balcony. Her intimate undergarments were still hanging there, fluttering in the night breeze.
"...."
Qin Yu had actually seen it too, but he could only pretend not to notice.
Thin, like a willow leaf, no telling what it could possibly conceal.
Afterward, he conducted a thorough inspection of Su Meng's bedroom and indeed found another miniature camera.
Furious, Su Meng grabbed it, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it mercilessly.
"Alright, that should be all of them. Get some rest early!"
Qin Yu left the room.
"I'll get you a blanket, sorry about making you sleep on the sofa!"
Su Meng said.
"Heh, what's there to feel sorry about? In the military, we used to sleep in graveyards just to train our courage,"
Qin Yu replied with a laugh.
"Well... you rest for a bit, I'm going to take a shower. Oh right, you should take one too, you're sweating all over. We have to pick up President Yan early in the morning, and she has a mild case of germophobia!"
After finding a blanket and handing it to Qin Yu, Su Meng said.
"I think I'll pass, you can't expect me to sleep naked, can you?"
Qin Yu scratched his head.
"Wear mine, I have leisurewear that's quite loose-fitting, suitable for both men and women!"
"That works for me!"
Qin Yu nodded.
Su Meng was right, Yan Mingyu indeed had a mild case of germophobia. He had seen her several times disinfecting her office with alcohol.
Shortly after.
Su Meng, after taking a shower, walked out wearing a nightgown.
The enticing contours of her figure were softly outlined under the garment, highly alluring.
"Qin Yu, go ahead and shower, I've found some clothes for you!"
Having said that, Su Meng went back to her own room.
She closed the door behind her and gently patted her full chest. Too much had happened tonight, and after drinking some alcohol, her head felt hazy. She had gotten so used to not wearing a bra after showering that she had absentmindedly walked out without one.
Fortunately, Qin Yu wasn't that kind of person.....
The following day.
Qin Yu left the apartment at six o'clock.
After eating a bit outside, he hailed a taxi and arrived at the entrance of Camphor Heights, Number Three Gate.
After waiting for about ten minutes,
Yan Mingyu came out, frowning and carrying a briefcase in her hand.
"President Yan, are you... not feeling well?"
Qin Yu asked with concern.
"No problem! Here's the key..."
Yan Mingyu's pretty face flushed momentarily for some reason.
Could she tell Qin Yu that she had been too busy lately, eating irregularly, and after suffering from several bouts of an upset stomach, her hemorrhoids had flared up?
"Then, President Yan, please get in the car!"
Qin Yu opened the car door for her.
"Hiss...."
Yan Mingyu had just sat down when she drew in a sharp breath of air.
If it weren't for having to deal with some matters in the suburbs, she would have wanted to go straight to the hospital.
It was so painful.....
"President Yan... how about I take your pulse and see?"
Qin Yu suggested, looking in the rear-view mirror.
It was just last time that he had helped Yan Mingyu with her stomach ache by pressing on the acupoints on her feet.
"Take what pulse? Just drive your car, I have hemorrhoids! Can you perform surgery or something?"
Yan Mingyu had suffered all night and hadn't gotten any sleep; her temper was exceptionally irritable.
"Well... President Yan, I really can deal with this kind of illness,"
Qin Yu sheepishly said.
"Even if you can deal with it, I don't want you to!"
Yan Mingyu said with a cold face.
He can deal with it?
How could he deal with it?
Did he expect her to take off her pants in front of him voluntarily?
