Chapter 289: Chapter 289: The Man’s Voice Has a Coquettish Tone

After finishing her call with Xia Duoduo, Ji Wei fell asleep holding her phone.

When she heard a sudden noise in the room, she groggily opened her eyes and saw a tall, lean figure standing at her bedside, silhouetted against the light.

The light from the bedside lamp was a bit harsh, so Ji Wei squinted until her eyes gradually adjusted.

When she realized it was Gu Moqian standing there, she sat up slightly, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and asked, "You’re back? Why so late?"

"Sorry, did I keep you waiting long?"

Gu Moqian sat down at the edge of the bed, looking at the drowsy woman with a hint of guilt in his voice.

Ji Wei shook her head and gave a faint smile. "It’s fine, it’s just social obligations."

Seeing that his face was slightly redder than usual and his deep eyes carried a tinge of haziness, Ji Wei’s drowsiness abruptly lifted. "Mo Qian, did you drink? Are you feeling unwell?"
