When Li Zeyi was taking a nap in the lounge, Gu Xiao walked in.

He saw the food on the table, which looked like it hadn't been touched at all.

"Oh, Master Li doesn't seem to have a good appetite. Is there something bothering you?"

"No, the food is just not to my liking." Li Zeyi said coldly.

Secretary Wang froze in his tracks and stood there in a daze.

He guessed that the president should have finished his meal, so he came in to clear the table. He just happened to hear these words.

He ordered the meal, what if the CEO got angry with him? In an instant, 100 possible responses came to his mind.

Order another one for him and ask him what he likes to eat.

After waiting for a while, the president showed no intention of talking to him.

Anyway, this wasn't directed at him, so just pretend you didn't hear it.

He immediately and quickly cleaned the table and walked out.

The president cares a lot about his stomach, and what I usually order for him is basically based on his preferences.

Even if he didn't have a good appetite, he would always eat a little. He had never eaten a single bite. It seemed that he really didn't like this meal.

Secretary Wang silently wrote it down in his notebook: The president hates beef in golden soup, garlic butter shrimp, and sweet and sour pork ribs.

I opened the teapot and took a look. I was relieved to find that the Matsutake Seafood Soup was almost empty. I also wrote down: The CEO likes the Matsutake Seafood Soup.

In the president's lounge, Li Zeyi and Gu Xiao were still chatting.

"Are you used to living there?"

"I'm quite used to it."

"Oh." Gu Xiao was a little surprised.

He had seen that house before, and it was really shabby compared to the dream castle he lived in now.

It’s not even as good as the living conditions of any random nanny in the Dream Castle.

He really didn't expect that Li Zeyi had really settled down there in the past two days.

Gu Xiao realized that he was really into that girl.

"Why, you're still so sad even though we're living together?"

"What nonsense! They are just neighbors. They are worse than neighbors."

Neighbors will greet each other in a friendly manner when they meet.

As for her, she refused to answer his calls and went out to avoid him.

And looking at her eyes, Li Zeyi felt like there was a thorn in his heart that was always prickling him.

She looked at him with contempt and disgust.

"What happened to the wound on your hand?"

Li Zeyi lowered his eyes, his lips curled up, looking a little helpless and bitter.

"It's okay, I was scratched by a cat."

Gu Xiao looked at the wound and it was clearly a fingernail mark. Li Zeyi didn't say anything and he didn't point it out.

"Even the neighbors can't compare to her? So miserable? Girls need to be coaxed. Buy her some gifts?"

"She's not one of those girls you know."

It’s not that Li Zeyi didn’t want to buy something for her, but she was obviously not the kind of girl who could be bought with money.

She is aloof and self-respecting, and she strictly adheres to the normal social distance between people. If you take a step forward, she will take a step back, and never cross the line.

He even felt that his identity might make her retreat.

"Zeyi, why do you like her?" His tone was more serious and earnest than ever before.

Gu Xiao stared at his face, refusing to miss any trace of his expression.

Li Zeyi looked up at him, Gu Xiao's expression was very serious. So he wanted to answer this question seriously.

He lowered his eyes, lay on the sofa, and placed his hands on his abdomen, as if he was lost in some kind of contemplation.

He thought of her rescuing him at the riverside, her face filled with fear but her voice forced to remain calm.

He held her wrist as if holding a ray of hope. Perhaps at that moment he wanted to pull her into his life.

The moments I had spent with her flashed through my mind.

She helped him sew up the wound, and he trembled in his heart.

His forced kiss, the joy he felt when he pushed her on the swing, the alluring scent she smelled when he was close to her.

And the way his blood boiled when he held her in his arms.

She had obviously not spent a few days with him, but she discovered that so many scenes flashed through his mind.

He kissed her and hugged her, but he still felt that she was far away from him.

Even strangers are better than him. At least she would not be rude to a stranger and avoid him.

But to be a stranger to her? No, he couldn't do it.

He felt like he was on fire, a fire that burned his entire body.

It seemed as if only she could quench his violence and soothe his resentment.

He wanted to throw himself at her regardless of the consequences.

But he was afraid that she would be angry and not want to see him.

He was still afraid. He was afraid of her disgust, and even more afraid of her pain.

He clenched his teeth so tightly that they squeaked and his face twitched.

He didn't know how to answer, he couldn't tell why he liked her, but he was sure that he liked her.

He stopped thinking about the answer to this question. He began to withdraw from this emotion and felt a little better.

Gu Xiao looked at his face. In just a moment, happiness, joy, sweetness, pain, and struggle flashed across his face.

Gu Xiao had never seen him like this before. So vivid and lively.

Li Zeyi did not answer, but Gu Xiao knew the answer clearly.

The image of the girl brushing her fingertips across his lips and warning him, "Classmate, don't mess with me. You can't afford it."

She was indeed someone he couldn't afford to offend. She was right!

Gu Xiao felt a moment of distress in his heart, but it was light and soon passed.

"It's all women running around you, Li Zeyi. I never thought you would end up like this." Gu Xiao laughed.

Li Zeyi threw the pillow next to him at him. Gu Xiao decided not to continue this topic.

"I heard that you found Murong Lin to be your spokesperson for next week. He is Murong Cheng's son."

"I know,"

"This young man is in the entertainment industry, and his father has invested a lot of money in him. I heard that Murong Cheng doesn't like him being in the entertainment industry and has always hoped that he would inherit the family business. But the boy never buys into it, and he never asks about the Murong family's business."

"Don't you mind that he is Murong Cheng's son?" Gu Xiao asked again.

"Murong Cheng spent a lot of money to get his son, so why shouldn't I use him to promote our products?"

"Yeah, that guy is handsome and has a lot of female fans."

In Longbo Imperial Palace, Lei Ming spread out six photos on the coffee table.

"There are two medical universities in Shucheng. The photos of the top three campus beauties are all here. Take a look and see if there is the one you are looking for."

Murong Lin's eyes were fixed on one of the photos. Although the photo was a half-length photo, one could still see that the girl had delicate features and was pure and beautiful.

"What's her name?"

“Personal information is written behind the photo.”

Murong Lin flipped through it and saw: Huaqing Medical University, junior, Su Jinyan, phone number 181********

Murong Lin took the phone and dialed the number. Lei Ming was about to tell him that it was inappropriate.

As a star, it is not good for him to contact a girl and reveal his personal information.

Before he could finish his words, Murong Lin's hand stopped.

"Brother Lin, let me do it. I'll prepare some gifts and thank her in person. That will show my sincerity. Don't worry about this matter."

"It's too late today. Go to school tomorrow and ask her out for dinner in person. I'll go with you." Murong Lin instructed him without paying attention to his words.

"In person, do you know how many eyes are staring at you outside?" Lei Ming was a little shocked and his voice became a little heavier.

"I know what I'm doing, just follow my instructions."

Murong Lin took the photo and hopped on one foot to the second floor.

Lei Ming came to help him, but he pushed him away and walked away on his own.
