Suddenly, someone called out to her. Su Ruixue turned around and saw her good friend Lin Xiao standing behind her with food in her hand.

Su Ruixue raised her lips and looked at her happily. She said excitedly, "Lin Xiao!"

Su Ruixue quickly moved to the side and called her over, "Lin Xiao, sit here! Here!"

Lin Xiao nodded and walked to her side to sit down.

Gu Xingbei looked at Lin Xiao, who was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a round face.

He took the initiative to extend his hand with a smile and said, "Hello, I'm Gu Xingbei."

Lin Xiao looked at Gu Xingbei, who was smiling at her, with a slightly red face. She hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand and timidly said, "You... Hello, I'm Lin Xiao."

"Nice to meet you." Gu Xingbei shook hands with her and pulled his hand back.

Lin Xiao nodded shyly: "Me too."

Su Ruixue looked at the shy Lin Xiao, then at Gu Xingbei, who was eating his salad, and finally whispered to Lin Xiao, "He's the first artist I've ever taught. Isn't he handsome?"

Lin Xiao's hand, which was holding the knife and fork, paused. She first looked at Su Ruixue, then carefully peeked at Gu Xingbei, who was sitting opposite Su Ruixue.

A glance made her blush, and she bowed her head and nodded. "Yes."

Su Ruixue chuckled. Lin Xiao was still as shy as before.

At the same time, on the other side.

Ji Lingchuan stared at his phone for a long time, his fingers stroking a name back and forth.

"President."

Nuobai pushed open the door and walked in, interrupting Ji Lingchuan's thoughts.

Ji Lingchuan raised his head and looked at him expressionlessly, "What is it?"

"You're leaving for Licheng this afternoon - you're going to attend a business event at eight o'clock in the evening," Nuobai reported.

"Yes, you may leave now," Ji Lingchuan replied tiredly with one hand on his forehead and his eyes closed.

"Yes," Nuobai bowed and left.

Ji Lingchuan glanced at his phone - alas, he couldn't help but grab it and dial a series of numbers.

In the end, his finger remained on the dial button for a long time.

He stared at the string of numbers and let out a self-deprecating laugh.

He turned off his phone and threw it to the side. He leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling.

He muttered to himself, "Am I crazy?"

Litchi.

After filming today's scene, Gu Xingbei and Su Ruixue took a taxi back to the hotel.

Su Ruixue got out of the taxi and looked at Gu Xingbei, who was standing next to her, in exhaustion.

Gu Xingbei looked at her with an energetic expression: "Let's go, Miss Manager?"

Su Ruixue walked towards the hotel. Gu Xingbei quickly followed and grabbed her backpack.

Su Ruixue had just taken two steps when she felt someone grab her backpack. She turned to look at Gu Xingbei, who was standing behind him, pulling her backpack and grinning at her.

"What are you doing?"

Gu Xingbei looked at her playfully and then let go of her backpack, "Nothing, let's go."

Just as Su Ruixue was about to walk to the elevator, Gu Xingbei suddenly grabbed her backpack.

Su Ruixue couldn't move an inch. She turned her head and looked at him in disgust: "Gu Xingbei! Aren't you childish!"

Gu Xingbei smiled at her, but didn't intend to let go of her.

Su Ruixue had been working with him for the whole day. Gu Xingbei was already very tired, but he still had the strength to joke with her.

Su Ruixue clenched her fists and was about to hit him, but Gu Xingbei suddenly dodged backwards. Su Ruixue staggered and threw herself into Gu Xingbei's arms.

Gu Xingbei looked down blankly at Su Ruixue, who was in his arms.

A faint fragrance lingered under his nose. It seemed to be coming from Su Ruixue, making him feel very comfortable.

"Ding!"

The elevator door suddenly opened.

When Ji Lingchuan walked out of the elevator, he saw Su Ruixue in Gu Xingbei's arms.

"President?" Nuobai looked at Su Ruixue, who was in Gu Xingbei's arms, and then carefully shifted his gaze to his boss.

Ji Lingchuan's already cold face became even colder now, and Nuobai could not help but shiver.

He couldn't help but feel that their CEO seemed to be angry, and it was all because of Su Ruixue.

Su Ruixue suddenly felt waves of coldness coming from behind her and she couldn't help but shiver.

Ji Lingchuan retracted his cold gaze from Su Ruixue, his hands at his side clenched into fists and held them to his mouth. He coughed hard a few times.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Su Ruixue's heart skipped a beat. She quickly got out of Gu Xingbei's arms. Just as she turned around, she saw a man who had appeared behind her at some point. Their eyes met.

The moment she met Ji Lingchuan's cold eyes, Su Ruixue suddenly felt a little guilty, as if Ji Lingchuan had caught her cheating on him.

Ji Lingchuan avoided her gaze and brushed past her like a stranger in his shiny leather shoes.

Su Ruixue's mouth twitched slightly as Ji Lingchuan walked past her, but she did not say anything in the end.

Her heart felt as if it was being strangled by something. The pain was unbearable.

Nuobai nodded at her as he walked past her.
