After her divorce, she had to get a job. She didn’t want to touch the money left to her by her grandfather, but desired to provide for herself.
But Ruan Tianling wouldn’t let her find a job, making any effort she made fruitless.
At this thought, she felt a wave of discouragement.
Since she couldn’t work, she could only study and gather knowledge for the time being. Jian Yufei spent the day online and working on financial spreadsheets.
She was deeply engrossed in her work, and the time flew by surprisingly quickly.
By the evening, when Ruan Tianling returned, she was still studying.
She sat at her computer desk, her back slightly arched and her legs curled up on the large leather chair.
Her eyes focused on the screen, a book lying open on her lap.
Her fingers moved the mouse, typed a few notes into the computer, then picked up her book to read a page.
When she encountered something new, her eyes would light up and she would excitedly apply the new knowledge on her computer.
All her attention was focused on studying. When Ruan Tianling came up behind her, she didn’t notice him. He watched her study so intently, his gaze softening towards her youthful face.
The only light in the room came from a table lamp. Under the soft light, her features appeared gentle. Her long eyelashes flickered like a black butterfly about to take flight.
Jian Yufei wasn’t strikingly beautiful, but she had delicate facial features and a soft, dignified aura about her.
Right now, her dedication to learning added an irresistible charm. She unknowingly held Ruan Tianling’s full attention, unable to take his eyes off her face.
He continued to watch her, his mind occupied by nothing else but her, as if that was all he needed.
Time passed unknowingly. Finally, Jian Yufei completed what she had set out to learn that day. She placed the book on the table, stretched her arms and yawned.
Feeling a crick in her neck, she stretched it out and back, only to lock eyes with Ruan Tianling.
Seeing him suddenly startled her, but she quickly composed herself, sitting up straight.
Ruan Tianling gazed at her intently, then shifted his gaze to her computer. He leaned in, his chest lightly against her back, his head resting on her shoulder.
He reached around her, his left hand on the keyboard and his right hand holding the mouse after setting his phone to the side.
“You could also calculate it this way,” he explained deftly, showing her how.
Jian Yufei initially was impatient. She didn’t want to have too much contact with him. But seeing him apply an efficient calculation method piqued her interest.
His method was indeed simple, practical, and significantly reduced the time required.
Jian Yufei’s eyes lit up, glimmering with a thirst for knowledge.
Seeing her like this, Ruan Tianling patiently pointed out other errors.
“What about this part?” Jian Yufei had completely forgotten that it was Ruan Tianling who was standing behind her.
Her full attention was on her studies, and she unconsciously pointed to a part she was unsure about for his guidance.
Ruan Tianling looked at her from the corner of his eye, finding her eyes very bright and attractive.
Her lips also appeared soft and beautifully colored. As she spoke, her lips parted slightly, her breath faintly scenting the air, making him yearn to kiss her lips and hold her tightly…
