Before he could think any further.

A wave of drowsiness washed over him, and leaning back in his chair, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

A short while later, the person leaning back in the chair slowly opened their eyes.

When he opened his eyes, his imposing aura had vanished, replaced by a gentle expression.

He looked up and surveyed his surroundings.

Then he slowly stood up, walked out of the office, and met his assistant walking towards him.

"General Manager Xiao".

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Xiyan's lips.

"Okay, I'll head back now."

The assistant looked at the smile on Xiao Xiyan's lips and the change in his entire demeanor.

I could only manage a wry smile; it seemed that President Xiao was about to disappear again.

Because every time President Xiao shows such a gentle smile, he disappears for several days!

After being confined to her home for three days, Ning Qing was finally able to finish breakfast and join a group of fellow patients in going out to the small garden for some fresh air and chasing butterflies...

Because Ning Qing had escaped once, both caregivers and nurses now keep a close eye on her every move.

Ning Qing was also speechless.

It's still that same big tree, and it's still that same lawn.

The location is still the same, and the ants are still the same group of ants.

Just as Ning Qing glanced up unintentionally, a white figure in the distance caught her attention.

Ning Qing smiled slightly, stood up, and patted the grass clippings off her clothes.

He strode towards the white figure.

"Dr. Xiao".

Xiao Xiyan stopped and turned around to look, only to see Ning Qing walking towards them.

Xiao Xiyan immediately revealed a gentle smile.

"Ningqing".

Ning Qing, "Dr. Xiao".

Xiao Xiyan looked at Ning Qing and smiled gently and elegantly, "I heard you secretly ran away a few days ago?"

Ning Qing, "How did you know?"

Xiao Xiyan, "Your escape has caused a sensation throughout the entire college. Who doesn't know about it now?"

Ningqing...

Xiao Xiyan still smiled so gently.

"You, stop being naughty, and don't run out again, okay?"

Ning Qing gave him a deep look.

"Do you know why I ran away that day?"

Xiao Xiyan was also curious to know about this matter, but he was even more curious about how Ning Qing managed to escape.

The surveillance system here is very sophisticated, and no one knows how he got out.

Ning Qing gazed intently into his calm eyes.

"You said you would come to see me, but I've been waiting for days and you still haven't come."

Xiao Xiyan… “I’m sorry, I’ve been quite busy these past few days, that’s why I haven’t been able to come and see you.”

Ning Qing: "That's why I ran out to look for you!"

Xiao Xiyan's eyes widened slightly, a look of disbelief in them.

"you……".

Ning Qing calmly dropped another bombshell.

"I found you at the bar, but you didn't recognize me."

As he spoke, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Xiyan put his hand on Ning Qing's shoulder.

"I……".

He wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to begin. After all, they had only met once and weren't close enough to confide in each other.

Even if you can confide in someone completely, you should never let others know about this.

Ning Qing raised her hand and placed it on the back of his hand, gently stroking it as if it were unintentional.

Yes, it feels great!

A smile crept onto Ning Qing's lips.

"It's okay if you pretend you don't know me, I'll get to know you all over again."

Xiao Xiyan... doesn't know what words to use to describe his feelings at this moment.
