"Why are you here?" Zhou Qi asked.

Bai Qiaoqiao smiled and took off her mask and glasses, walked straight to Zhou Qi and gave him a hug. "Long time no see, I missed you so much, can't I come to see you? Master, don't you miss me too?"

Zhou Qi gently pushed her away: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly."

His attitude seemed very cold, but for Bai Qiaoqiao, this reaction was exactly what she liked.

She walked around the room without caring, "Master, you are such a big boss now, why is your office environment still the same? It is far worse than Mr. Shi's. Why don't you let me help you redecorate it?"

Bai Qiaoqiao is now financially strong, so improving Zhou Qi's working environment is just a small matter for her.

"Are you trying to bribe me?" Zhou Qi asked.

"Oh, why would it be so troublesome to bribe?" Bai Qiaoqiao said with a smile, pulling a chair over to sit next to Zhou Qi and holding his arm, "I just really missed you."

Just when the atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous, Zhou Qi withdrew his hand, but Bai Qiaoqiao did not seem to be willing to give up and instead moved closer.

Seeing this, Zhou Qi tapped her forehead gently.

"Ouch!"

This obviously surprised Bai Qiaoqiao, but she was not angry. She just rubbed her slightly red forehead and said, "It's not a bad thing to let me get close to you occasionally. I will keep it a secret and promise not to tell Master's wife. Besides, I've been waiting for you."

Zhou Qi looked at Bai Qiaoqiao and said calmly, "If you have nothing else to do, go back first."

"Master, you are so direct." Bai Qiaoqiao hugged Zhou Qi's arm tightly like a sloth and refused to let go. She also leaned her head on his shoulder, with stars in her eyes. "Why do I like you so much, Master? Tell me, what should I do to make you accept me?"

Zhou Qi couldn't help laughing. He had only heard this line in costume dramas and never expected to encounter it himself.

He tried to pull his arms back again, but Bai Qiaoqiao held him even tighter.

As a man, it would be a lie to say that I didn't feel anything at all when faced with such intimate contact.

But as for Bai Qiaoqiao, he knew clearly that he couldn't let her continue to misunderstand.

"Let go!" Zhou Qi's voice turned cold.

Bai Qiaoqiao felt very aggrieved, but she slowly loosened her hand and said with her head down: "Master, I know you don't dislike me, but you are too upright and can't get over it."

"I don't ask for much." She said softly, "I don't need any status, nor do I ask you to give me anything. I just want a little happiness of my own. Really, I always think about you, and this feeling makes me uncomfortable."

As she spoke, tears fell on her hands.

Zhou Qi frowned slightly, sighed helplessly, and softened his voice a little: "It is normal for a man to be attracted to a beautiful woman, but there is no way there will be a result between us. If I accept it, it will not only be irresponsible to you, but also immoral."

Bai Qiaoqiao nodded, tears still in her eyes. "I know, but I don't care. Today is my birthday, and I hope this day will have some special meaning. I have decided to give myself to you, and I have made special preparations."

Zhou Qi was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to do.

At this time, the phone rang. It was Shi Feijie calling.

"Mr. Zhou, the audition list has been announced, and there are several very promising candidates. The recording will begin tomorrow. Liu Dehua and Zhang Xueyou have agreed to participate in the program, but they can't come for the first episode. So for the first episode, do you think the resident singers should be the Scarecrow Band, Bai Wanting, or Wang Fei?"

Zhou Qi glanced at Bai Qiaoqiao beside him, thinking that he could use this opportunity to let her leave, "Let Bai Wanting come."

"Okay, I'll contact her now." Shi Feijie replied.

"No need, she is here with me now." Zhou Qi replied.

Shi Feijie was stunned for a moment, but he knew that there were some things that he didn't need to ask too much.

Zhou Qi paused for a moment and said, "Let's prepare a cake. Today is Bai Wanting's birthday. Later, we will invite everyone in the company to celebrate for her here."

"Okay, Mr. Zhou!" the other party replied.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Wanting stared at Zhou Qi and asked softly, "Will you come to participate?"

"Of course." Zhou Qi replied.

Bai Wanting smiled, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Master."

"You're welcome." Zhou Qi breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that this embarrassing scene was finally over.

But Bai Wanting's eyes became firm, and she asked: "Master, today is my birthday, I have the right to do anything, right? If I do something that makes you unhappy, can you forgive me?"

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Qi asked curiously.

Bai Wanting forced a smile and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I just want a promise that no matter what happens, you will forgive me."

Zhou Qi smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."

"Thank you, Master." Bai Wanting stood up and picked up the teacup, "Let me make you a cup of tea."

Zhou Qi did not object. As he watched her leave the office, he shook his head slightly.

In fact, he had no aversion to Bai Wanting. Instead, he thought she was a good girl and his previous prejudice had long disappeared.

But he was not willing to accept this feeling.

Soon, Bai Wanting came back with a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of Zhou Qi.

Her eyes drifted towards the cup of tea from time to time, and her hands trembled slightly under the table, making her look a little uneasy.

Zhou Qi noticed her nervousness, but he thought it was caused by the conversation just now and did not investigate further.

He took a sip of tea, and gradually, an inexplicable feeling of fatigue came over him, making him feel extremely sleepy.

Realizing that something was wrong, Zhou Qi frowned, looked at the teacup in Bai Wanting's hand, and asked, "What on earth did you do?"

"Master...Master..." Bai Wanting became even more flustered when questioned, and confessed, "I added something to the tea."

Hearing this answer, Zhou Qi's heart sank suddenly.

Zhou Qi felt irritated and almost lost control.

He stood up and wanted to leave the office, but as soon as he stood up, his legs were too weak to support him and he fell back into the chair.

"Are you crazy?" Zhou Qi asked, gasping for breath.

Bai Qiaoqiao stood up quickly and locked the office door. She looked at Zhou Qi firmly, "Master, I don't ask for much, really not much. I really love you."

"Get out, leave here quickly!" Zhou Qi roared angrily.

"I won't leave." Bai Qiaoqiao said firmly.

"You..." Zhou Qi gritted his teeth, tried hard to prop up his body, and staggered towards the door.

But Bai Qiaoqiao stepped forward, hugged him, and pulled him to the sofa next to her.
