Shi Xing reassured the two young women, "It's okay, it's not a scam, please accept it."

The two: Is this really okay? They inexplicably each received 25,000.

The two stood there, stunned. They wished for more of this kind of good fortune.

Shi Xing pulled Xu Bai and the photographer away to the next location.

The filming lasted for more than two hours before it ended.

Finally, we treated the photographer to afternoon tea before parting ways.

Meanwhile, Shi Xing and Xu Bai began to wander aimlessly.

I didn't get back to Wanliu Academy until evening.

The next day they also went to drink soy milk.

Everyone says that not everyone can accept the taste of douzhi (fermented mung bean juice), but Shi Xing didn't believe it and insisted on trying it himself to find out if it was true or not.

So when she received the bowl of grayish-green, slightly viscous liquid, she picked it up and took a small sip.

A sour taste swept across the tip of the tongue, like diluted white vinegar, followed by a rotten, fermented, and spoiled sauerkraut flavor that lingered between the lips and teeth.

The smell only became like soy milk after it dissipated.

She frowned and forced herself to drink it down without spitting it out.

Someone previously commented that it was like an old man running 10 kilometers in the sweltering summer heat, then covering himself in long sleeves for a week without showering or changing clothes, and then licking the old man's armpit.

I don't know how that person came to that conclusion.

She pushed the full bowl in front of her toward Xu Bai: "Try it."

Xu Bai glanced at her, then lowered his eyelids to look at the grayish-green soy milk pushed in front of him.

She pursed her lips, her mind filled with memories of the taste of douzhi (fermented mung bean juice).

Finally, he scooped up a little with a spoon and drank it. Shi Xing looked at him expectantly: "How is it?"

Xu Bai tasted it carefully for a while, his expression unchanged: "It's alright."

"Huh?" Shi Xing's eyes widened. "I don't think there's anything that tastes bad in your eyes."

“No, I don’t think foie gras tastes good,” Xu Bai defended himself.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xing recalled that the two of them had tasted foie gras before.

The foie gras that time was too oily and had a fishy taste, so Xu Bai didn't like it.

"And I don't like pig intestines either," Xu Bai added.

Shi Xing smiled, her eyes crinkling: "You clearly don't like any internal organs."

He wouldn't eat anything that mentioned internal organs, as he found those foods to have a strange taste.

Xu Bai nodded: "Mm."

The last bowl of soy milk only suffered minor scratches and was left untouched on the table.

While they were having fun, the Weibo square was full of discussions about the two of them.

Some people posted photos of them playing together on the street, while others shipped them as a couple.

Jiang Xunzhi's eyes turned red with jealousy as she looked at the online discussions, and she gritted her teeth.

We were supposed to be in Beijing for business, but it turns out we were just enjoying a sweet time together.

He called Shi Xing that night, his tone sour.

"Didn't your sugar daddy say that you and Xu Bai were just there to take care of something? Why are there so many pictures of you two on a date on Weibo?"

Shi Xing: Didn't you say there aren't that many spectators in real life?

"Things are all taken care of, and there's nothing else to do, so I'll just hang out here for a bit."

"I've never gone on a solo trip with you, my sugar daddy, before. I'm so jealous."

"..."

"But you work so hard, if I were by your side I would make you happy every day and give you a massage to relax every night."

"..." Shouldn't Xu Bai be more professional in this area?

"I haven't seen my owner for so long, I miss you so much~ But I'll try to suppress my longing. Even though I can't be by your side in person, I'm happy as long as I see you happy."

"...Alright, I told you before that I would make time to spend with you when we get back." Shi Xing said helplessly, she felt like she was coaxing her beloved husband.

After finally hanging up the phone with Jiang Xunzhi, two more messages came in on WeChat.

"Mr. Shi, haven't you been in Shanghai lately? Sister Yan got me a role in a movie, and I'd like to show it to you."

It's Su Xian, who's been busy with her acting career lately.

Shi Xing twitched her lips when she saw the entertainment news pushed to her, "President Shi and her mysterious handsome boyfriend appeared in the capital."

Most of them came here after seeing this.

Even Su Xian, who usually prefers to remain silent, surprisingly took the initiative to ask, albeit in a very tactful way.

Shi Xing laughed and immediately called him.

The call was answered almost immediately, within two seconds of dialing.

"President Shi..."

Hearing the barely perceptible sadness and distress in his voice, Shi Xing couldn't help but feel a surge of affection.

"What's wrong? Why are you being so formal after only a few days?"

"...Fortunately."

"Did you only think of asking me after seeing the news push on Weibo?"

"...Yes." After a moment of silence, Su Xian unexpectedly admitted it directly.

Although he can be a bit awkward at times, he is straightforward and admits things most of the time.

Shi Xing's eyes curved slightly: "Sweetie, how about I take you out to play next time? I'll let you go wherever you want."

Su Xian, on the other end of the phone, pursed her lips, a faint joy rising in her heart.

He didn't know why, but when he saw Shi Xing and another tall, handsome man appearing in the entertainment headlines, his heart felt heavy and he felt very uncomfortable.

He had clearly stated long ago that he was willing to accept her no matter how many people were around her, but...

He unconsciously wanted to message her to confirm if it was true.

She immediately guessed what he was thinking and made a promise.

"Hmm, is it just you and me?"

Shi Xing chuckled: "Who else do you want to add?"

I want to see you.

Shi Xing raised an eyebrow and answered the video call directly.

Su Xian's heart was pounding. He had never expressed his emotions so directly to anyone before, but he thought this was the case when facing Shi Xing.

On the other end of the phone, Shi Xing's stunningly beautiful face came into view.

She was wearing a black slip dress and leaning against a beige sofa, her casually loose hair draped over her fair shoulders.

Her sexy collarbone dipped slightly downwards, and her eyes held a gentle smile.

Su Xian's cheeks flushed, and her soft hair, damp with moisture, drooped over her forehead.

"You just got home?" Shi Xing asked him.

"Yeah, I just took a shower."

Perhaps because he had just taken a shower, his bright, phoenix-shaped eyes seemed to be veiled with mist as he intently gazed at Shi Xing.

Despite his aloof appearance and reserved demeanor, Shi Xing always felt that he resembled a pitiful yet adorable white Persian cat.

They're so docile, it makes you want to pet them.

After talking for a while, Shi Xing saw that it was getting late and prepared to hang up: "Take a rest. You have a schedule to catch up on tomorrow morning. Call me again tomorrow night."

Su Xian nodded obediently: "Okay, goodnight, Xingxing."

After hanging up, she realized that she had received two more calls just over ten minutes earlier.

"Chen Que?" I almost forgot about this person.

She called back, and the other end answered immediately: "Mr. Shi, you've finally answered my call. Were you busy talking to your sweetheart?"

Shi Xing chuckled: "Is there something you need?"

"Can't I call President Shi if there's nothing wrong?" Shen Que retorted.
