His tone was flat, as if he was stating a very ordinary fact.

Su Niannian felt Shi Heng pinching her palm hard, conveying silent comfort.

She suppressed the discomfort in her heart, raised her head, and looked at Lin Yan and Chen Ming with clear eyes.

"I think opening a bakery is great. There's nothing shameful about making a living through your skills and hard work."

Her tone was firm, with unquestionable protection.

Shi Heng turned his head and smiled at her, his eyes so gentle that they could drown people.

"I don't think the food here suits your taste. Do you want to go back early? The children must be waiting impatiently."

"Okay." Su Niannian nodded.

The two men stood up and said goodbye, leaving behind a room full of people with different expressions.

Shi Heng considerately put on Su Niannian's coat. His movements were natural and smooth, with an elegance and dignity engraved in his bones.

The box door closed.

"Tsk, what are you doing? You're just a baker, why are you acting so arrogant?"

Lin Yan curled her lips, her face full of disdain. "Nian Nian is the same. She got pregnant out of wedlock and has two children. It's good enough that she found a man who opened a bakery and protects her like a treasure."

"That's right, look at his clothes, who knows if he rented them just to show off." Another female classmate echoed.

Chen Ming frowned, as if thinking about something.

When Shi Heng mentioned the "multi-billion project" just now, the nonchalant yet matter-of-fact tone he used was not fake.

My heart skipped a beat for some unknown reason.

He always felt that deep in the man's calm eyes, there was something hidden that he could not reach.

He took out his cell phone for some unknown reason and typed "Shi Heng" into the search box.

A few seconds later.

Chen Ming's face turned pale in an instant.

The phone fell to the ground with a "click".
