The woman on the phone said something, and the man responded before hanging up.

Almost everyone in the conference room was listening intently.

If last time it was just a suspicion, this time it's certain.

My boss is not only in a relationship, but he's also living with me!

That's quite fast.

They hadn't heard that Chu Xing had any work to do outside the home, and they'd even heard that he'd specifically turned down a week's worth of work.

They didn't even say where they were going, which already made it quite obvious.

Perhaps she's thinking about her future marriage.

He only realized how late it was after being interrupted by Song Mai.

"That's all for today. Do as I just said."

The deputy general manager of the information department immediately felt like he had escaped a disaster, and raised an eyebrow at the miserable deputy general manager of the marketing department.

That expression seemed to say that someone didn't know how late they had to work overtime!

Perhaps because he was in a good mood, he became a little carried away and, after everyone had left, he kindly reminded Chu Xing, "Master Yun, work is important, but you can't neglect your feelings. You still need to spend time with your woman."

The man's eyes were like sharp swords.

"Are you very free?"

The deputy general manager of the information department immediately shrank back in fright.

"No, no, I have to go now."

Chu Xing was busy until four in the morning before he finished the pile of work. By the time he got home, the sky was already beginning to lighten.

He took a shower, changed his clothes, packed his luggage, and then slept for a while.

At seven o'clock in the morning, when Song Mai got up, Chu Xing had just opened the door, his eyes showing faint dark circles, looking very tired.

Didn't you sleep well?

"Um."

The man pinched the bridge of his nose.

"I'll sleep a little longer on the way, and I'll go make breakfast first."

"good."

Song Mai prepared a simple breakfast and specially prepared a cup of coffee for Chu Xing.

At eight o'clock sharp, the two set off for the airport.

When Song Mai arrived at the airport to check in, she discovered that she and Chu Xing's tickets were actually for business class.

She clutched the plane ticket, her eyes shining, showing it to Chu Xing like a primary school student showing off their award certificate.

"Look, it's first class! I've never flown first class before! Winning this prize is totally worth it!"

The man looked at Song Mai and suddenly found her somewhat adorable. He curled the corners of his lips and said in a cooperative tone, "Yes, very impressive."

This simple sentence is enough to give Song Mai endless emotional value.

She proudly tilted her head back and said, "I think so too!"

She had flown before when traveling for business, but always in economy class, and sometimes even with discounted tickets. She had never experienced such treatment before.

Compared to Song Mai, who kept looking at this and that, curious about everything, the man was incredibly calm.

Moreover, there was nothing she didn't know; Chu Xing could answer her questions very accurately.

This made her recall his very natural demeanor when the two of them had eaten at a Western restaurant before.

It seems that whether it's first class or Western food, these are things he's already used to.

Have you ever flown first class before?

She peeked at him like a curious child, but the man had already adjusted himself to a comfortable angle and put on an eye mask.

"Um."

"Was your previous job very lucrative? Otherwise, how could you afford to fly first class? I just checked the price, and it's really high."

She thought to herself that even if she had made a fortune, she probably wouldn't be willing to spend such a large sum of money on transportation.

"It's alright, I've only ridden it once or twice."

Song Mai had a lot of questions and wanted to ask him why he was so familiar with the place after only sitting there once or twice, but seeing his tired appearance, she couldn't bear to disturb him, so she kept quiet and sat quietly in her seat.

She wasn't sleepy, but she didn't dare to move too much. Although she didn't know how long Chu Xing had worked overtime, she could tell from his appearance that he hadn't slept for long.

She didn't want to disturb his rest.

So she simply lay down, opened her eyes, and looked around.

Zicheng is not far, and the whole journey takes only two hours.

Song Mai felt like she hadn't had enough time to enjoy herself before she arrived.

The event organizers made meticulous arrangements. As soon as the two of them pushed their luggage out of the airport, the driver who was picking them up called Song Mai.

The driver was already waiting at the arrival gate, holding a very conspicuous sign.

"Ms. Song, Mr. Chu, I will pick you up and drop you off for the next week. Please contact me anytime if you need anything."

Song Mai was taken aback: "Weren't you just the person who picked them up at the airport?"

The driver was a middle-aged man with an honest appearance. When he smiled, his eyes curved like two crescent moons.

"Here's the thing, considering that you two are not familiar with the Purple City, and many places in the Purple City are about experiencing natural landscapes, it would be best if you had your own means of transportation. Our company has arranged for me to be your driver for this week, which is also included in our activity."

After hearing these words, Song Mai felt even more that her week of leave was worthwhile.

If she hadn't taken leave, she wouldn't have lost a week's salary and full attendance bonus, but she probably would never have had such good travel conditions again.

"Your company is so great! What's your company name? I'll recommend you to them. I'll definitely use your company again next time I travel!"

Upon hearing this, the driver scratched his head awkwardly and glanced at Chu Xing subconsciously.

"We'll talk about it later, no rush. You get in the car first, I'll take you to see the hotel."

Song Mai herself found it a bit strange, after all, what kind of company employee would refuse to say the company name when a customer is willing to promote the company?

But as soon as he heard that they were going to check out the hotel, he immediately forgot all about it.

Located in the city center, the hotel is a well-known art hotel in Zicheng. It is said to have been designed by a famous international designer, and the overall atmosphere is very artistic.

Song Mai stood at the hotel entrance, her mouth agape, motionless for a long time.

The hotel staff were quick to greet the two of them, and it took Song Mai a while to come to her senses.

Looking at the driver in disbelief, she asked, "Is this hotel really prepared for us?"

The driver smiled and nodded.

Song Mai still couldn't believe it: "Is it really true? Such a nice hotel, is your company not going to continue operating it? It's just a lucky draw event, how can you be willing to spend so much money?"

Based on her understanding of these capitalists, even though she won the prize, the organizers certainly wouldn't treat her very well. After all, who wants to let someone else take advantage of them for free?

Her slightly exaggerated manner amused the driver.

"Don't worry, Ms. Song, our company is running very well, and there's no sign of decline for at least the next few years. The reason the conditions are so good is firstly because this hotel belongs to our group, and secondly because our company is not short of money. Even if it's used for free activities, it won't cause our company to go bankrupt."

Song Mai still couldn't believe it. Even after she walked into the hotel and stepped onto the soft carpet, she still felt like it was all unreal.
