Su Lingzhi's cooking skills are really mediocre. Thinking of Gu Zhen's picky eating, she actually regretted asking Gu Zhen whether he wanted to eat breakfast. It was simply a waste of time.

Since it would take him an hour to exercise anyway, Su Lingzhi simply ordered takeout.

She was really hungry, so she cooked a bowl of fish ball soup while waiting for the takeaway. After finishing the bowl of fish ball soup, her stomach felt much better, and as she felt better, she felt sleepy. Knowing that the takeaway was delivered to her door, Su Lingzhi took the takeaway and waited for another half an hour. Gu Zhen exercised a little longer than usual today, so she felt sleepy again while waiting, and dozed off on the sofa with her arms around a pillow.

Gu Zhen was sweating all over when he saw Su Lingzhi dozing off, leaning on the pillow and sleeping soundly. He took a shower, changed his clothes, and there was no sign of Su Lingzhi waking up.

Because Gu Zhen was too picky about food, Su Lingzhi racked her brains and chose the simplest breakfast: fish porridge, soy milk, and boiled eggs. All of them contained visible ingredients, carbohydrates and protein.

"Not to your liking?" Su Lingzhi didn't know when she woke up, and saw Gu Zhen staring at the breakfast, as if he had no idea where to start. "Don't force yourself."

"Okay!" As expected, he didn't eat and went to make a cup of coffee.

Su Lingzhi, "..."

It’s all Grandpa Yuan Longping’s fault. He let you eat too much and you’re picky about this and that.

She was really foresighted. She only ordered one breakfast, as if she guessed that Gu Zhen would not eat it. She drank the fish fillet porridge herself. Gu Zhen sat opposite her with a cup of coffee, dressed in a suit and tie, looking abstinent and noble.

"How much do you remember about what happened after you got drunk?"

"I'm a little blackout." Su Lingzhi was terrified. In fact, she was a little blackout, but she was clear-headed when she fell down the stairs and when Gu Zhen asked her for money and her life. She was afraid that Gu Zhen would pursue Luo Xiaoying's words, and she wanted to test how much Gu Zhen remembered.

Alcoholic amnesia is new, I have never heard of it before. It turns out that she drank alcohol and remembered nothing. No wonder she went crazy. No matter what, she just has to deny it.

"You and Qin Shen were hiding behind the pillar. Did you hear everything?" Gu Zhen's hand tapped the table lightly, as if tapping Su Lingzhi's heart.

"...I heard it." Su Lingzhi was uneasy and expressed his loyalty, "Don't worry, I will never say anything nonsense."

"If you don't tell me, Qin Shen may not tell me."

"He won't!" Su Lingzhi blurted out, afraid that Gu Zhen might do something to Qin Shen.

Gu Zhen's eyes were slightly cold. "Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that I will do something bad to him? This is a society ruled by law. I am a good citizen who abides by the law. Why are you so nervous?"

Su Lingzhi felt guilty and didn't dare to look at his face.

Gu Zhen had a blank expression on his face. "First love is really different. The feelings are still there. Why do you care so much?"

"No!" Su Lingzhi didn't want to be misunderstood, "I forgot about him a long time ago."

If he hadn't been interrogated, he would probably have believed it.

"No need to rush to explain. I don't even take Qin Shen seriously." Gu Zhen has his own arrogance. He doesn't want to make a big fuss about that little secret. He just wants Qin Shen to be sensible.

"Why are you and Qin Shen...on the balcony?"

Here it comes, here it comes, he really cares about Qin Shen.

Su Lingzhi was about to answer, but when she saw him drinking coffee, she couldn't help but say, "It's not good to drink coffee on an empty stomach. Do you want to eat something first?"

He always drank coffee on an empty stomach. He frowned and looked at Su Lingzhi with unclear eyes.

Su Lingzhi cracked the boiled egg, peeled it and handed it to him, "You don't even want to eat boiled eggs, do you?"

The peeled egg was tender and fragrant, making her fingertips look as white and tender as snow. Gu Zhen put down his coffee, took the egg she handed over, ate it, but was picky and removed the yolk.

Su Lingzhi rolled his eyes to the sky, "You are so picky about food, won't you be malnourished?"

"Xu Fei has a nutritionist qualification certificate."

Su Lingzhi, "...Fuck, that's awesome."

No wonder Mr. Gu is a picky eater yet still in good health.

Gu Zhen's brows darkened, and he pointed at the table again, "Talk about you and Qin Shen."

"I was waiting for you on the roadside and I just happened to run into him. What a coincidence."

"Jiangcheng is so big, we still meet after years of separation, it's really fate."

Su Lingzhi thought to herself, you are so sarcastic. She couldn't respond to this. If she did, she felt that Gu Zhen would get even angrier. So she simply kept silent. But who knew that even if she kept silent, he would still get angry.

"Then why are we going out for a drink together and going to the balcony together? So many old memories to reminisce about?"

He had not originally thought of investigating. It was Xu Fei who adjusted the surveillance and compiled the report for him. Gu Zhen was upset when he saw the news in the morning. He could not help but scold Xu Fei and told him not to act on his own.

"Xu Wanqing dragged me out for a drink. Qin Shen's cousin was in the booth. I didn't invite him, nor did I plan to meet him on the balcony to reminisce about the past. He was sneering at me the entire night and he chased after me and scolded me."

For a moment, Gu Zhen couldn't tell whether Su Lingzhi was really slow or just pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.

Su Lingzhi was really afraid of him. Qin Shen, Qin Shen, early in the morning, she didn't want to talk about Qin Shen at all, but just as she thought so, the phone on the desk rang.

The phone happened to be next to Gu Zhen. The page lit up and a message caught his eye.

Qin Shen: Susu, let’s have dinner together. I have something to discuss with you.

Gu Zhen read the message, Su Lingzhi's scalp tingled, and he hurriedly turned off the screen. Gu Zhen sneered, "We just met again, and the contact information was added."

"Or... should I block him?" Su Lingzhi asked tentatively.

"What does it have to do with me!"

Su Lingzhi took a deep breath, opened the social software, and blocked him with one click, "Mr. Gu, look, he is lying on the blacklist like a corpse, just be happy."

"I didn't ask you to delete it."

"Yes, yes, I want to delete it, it has nothing to do with you." Su Lingzhi was patient and had a way of coaxing people, "Don't mention him so early in the morning, you are causing trouble, and I am not happy either. Luo Xiaoying... why did you frame me for killing you? Is there someone who wants to kill you?"

She couldn't help but try.

Gu Zhen lowered his eyes, drank coffee, played with his phone in one hand, and said in a cold tone, "Yeah."

Su Lingzhi even cursed himself when he got angry, "Who wants to kill you? There are so many bad people in this world. Mr. Gu, you are so good, but there are still people who want to kill you. It's really crazy."

Gu Zhen looked at her with a half-smile, "A woman came to Yuese to kill me. Xu Fei has been looking for her, but hasn't found her yet. It's almost an unsolved case."

"Then you don't know who it is?"

"I drank some wine and forgot about it." Gu Zhen said lightly in a normal tone.

Su Lingzhi hated himself for doing something unnecessary. He shouldn't have given Gu Zhen that sip of wine. He failed to kill someone but ended up sleeping with him, and Gu Zhen had completely forgotten about it.

"Aren't you going to call the police about this?" Su Lingzhi asked.

"It's a personal grudge, why bother the police and waste taxpayers' money?"

Personal grudges should be resolved privately.

Su Lingzhi felt complicated for a moment, and realized that she should not test him anymore. Too much curiosity would only expose her. She had to stop at the right time. She must hide her little tail well and would never act rashly unless there was a chance to kill with one blow.

"You are free, is there anything you want to do?" Seeing that she no longer tested him, Gu Zhen asked her about her work. She said that career was more important than love, and he always remembered that.

Su Lingzhi was confused and bewildered, "What's the matter?"

She was treated like a salted fish and was being supported by others, which was quite comfortable.

"Gu Group is investing in a movie. The director and producer are both top-notch in the country. Su Wan will also compete for the third female role. If you want to act, I'll leave the female lead to you."

Su Lingzhi was so frightened that she lost her composure, choked on the soy milk, and started coughing madly. She hurriedly grabbed a tissue to cover her mouth, coughing until tears came out, and looked at Gu Zhen in disbelief.

"Are you crazy?"
