Ten minutes passed in this sleep. When Si Mochen opened his eyes, Xia Zhichu had not woken up yet.

"President, the agreed time has arrived." Yan Sen reminded carefully.

However, Si Mochen signaled with his eyes that Xia Zhichu should continue to sleep, and asked Yan Sen to contact Teacher Tang Sen first to explain the situation.

Yan Sen had no choice but to call Teacher Tang Sen.

At this moment, a dark gray Maybach slowly stopped nearby.

As the car door opened, a man in a suit of the same color got out of the car. Yan Sen looked up inadvertently and saw the man's back disappearing into the door.

Yan Sen scratched his hair suspiciously. Just as he was about to say something to Si Mochen, the call was connected.

"Hey, Mr. Townsend, I'm sorry I'm late for our meeting at ten o'clock. Our president asked me to tell you that he will be arriving later."

A kind voice came from the microphone, "I also forgot to tell you, I have to meet a student at ten o'clock. It's okay if you come late."

student?

Yan Sen looked at the door again, and the man who just entered was Teacher Tang Sen’s student.

But why did I feel familiar when I just glanced at it?

"Okay then, see you later."

Yan Sen hung up the phone without saying anything, then lowered his voice and said to Si Mochen, "President, Teacher Tang Sen is meeting a student, so it's okay for you to come over later."

As for that back figure...

Yan Sen thought about it and thought it might just be a coincidence, so he didn't tell Si Mochen about it.

So Si Mochen waited in the car until Xia Zhichu woke up and looked at the time. It was already eleven o'clock in the morning.

"How long have I been asleep?"

Xia Zhichu rubbed his eyes and felt dazed.

Si Mochen curled the corners of his lips, lovingly tidied her messy hair, and said softly, "One hour, not bad."

One hour?

Xia Zhichu shuddered suddenly, sat up straight from the man's arms, and said anxiously, "Are we late?"

"No problem."

Seeing her so nervous, Si Mochen said calmly, "I've already told Teacher Tang Sen about this. He also happens to have guests to entertain. We won't disturb them if we go there later."

After hearing this, Xia Zhichu felt much calmer.

It's really rude to be late for a first meeting.

"Let's go, it's almost time." Si Mochen looked at the time again. It had been almost an hour since the agreed time, and the normal conversation should have ended.

Xia Zhichu nodded, tidied himself up briefly, and then got out of the car with Si Mochen.

Yan Sen pressed the doorbell, and then someone came out to open the door.

"Teacher Thompson!" Yan Sen greeted politely.

Teacher Tang Sen smiled amiably when he saw the three of them. "Xiao Chen, if I'm not mistaken, this is Mrs. Si?"

Xia Zhichu felt somewhat embarrassed to be called Mrs. Si by her elders.

However, he still nodded towards the other party and said, "Hello, teacher, I am Xia Zhichu."

"Okay, okay, come in."

Teacher Thomson welcomed the three of them in.

Just as Si Mochen and Xia Zhichu arrived in the living room, they were a little surprised when they saw the person sitting on the sofa.

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to see Mr. Si and Miss Xia here too."

There was also a hint of surprise in Gu Bai's eyes, but he still stood up from the sofa.

Xia Zhichu looked at Si Mochen awkwardly, then heard the man say lightly, "It's quite a coincidence, Mr. Gu."

I heard about the situation of Gu Group some time ago. Gu Bai suddenly returned to the company as deputy general manager. Therefore, in the business circle, Si Mochen still had a good sense of propriety and called Gu Bai "Mr. Gu".

Teacher Thomson looked at them in surprise, then laughed out loud, "Do you know each other?"

Gu Bai answered first, "More than knowing each other, Miss Xia and I are friends."

The first sentence "Miss Xia" had already made Si Mochen very dissatisfied, and the second sentence "friend" made the man's face change completely.

He just like that, domineeringly hugged Xia Zhichu's waist, as if swearing his sovereignty, and corrected Gu Bai's words, "Chuchu and I have already obtained the marriage certificate. Please make it clear to Mr. Gu that her current identity is Mrs. Si."

Xia Zhichu looked at the hostile expressions of the two people and was so nervous that he didn't know what to do.

Of course, Teacher Thompson was also an experienced person. He saw at a glance that the relationship between the three men was not simple. Worried that the two men would really fight, Teacher Thompson quickly spoke up to help.

"Since we are all acquaintances, let's sit down and have tea together."

After Teacher Tang Sen finished speaking, he briefly introduced the identities of the people. "This is my student, Gu Bai. As for Xiao Chen, he is here with Mrs. Si. We need to discuss the issue with her design draft further."

When Yan Sen heard what Teacher Tang Sen said, he immediately understood.

So Mr. Tang Sen’s student is Gu Bai.

As for the familiar figure he saw at the door just now, was it also Gu Bai?

No wonder he felt like he had seen him somewhere before, it turned out to be an old acquaintance.

If I had reminded the president earlier, things wouldn’t be so embarrassing now.

When Gu Bai heard that they were going to discuss the design draft, he took the initiative to say goodbye, "Since the teacher still has things to do, I will come to visit you another day."

Teacher Thomson nodded and said, "Okay, drive slower."

"good."

Gu Bai responded, then walked towards the door with the car keys. Just as he was about to leave, he turned back to look at Xia Zhichu, "Does Miss Xia still stand by her promise to treat me to a meal when I helped her out last time?"

Gu Bai's words were undoubtedly a blatant provocation to Si Mochen.

Xia Zhichu clearly saw that the man's face had become extremely dark. If she agreed to Gu Bai at this moment, she was afraid that he would get furious in public.

However, just as she was about to refuse Gu Bai, Si Mochen spoke first, "I told you last time that I'll treat you to this meal. If Mr. Gu is free, we'll be waiting for you at the Sunshine Hotel tonight!"

The strong flavor of war made the atmosphere tense all of a sudden.

As for Gu Bai, he behaved like a gentleman and said with a smile, "Okay, see you there!"

After saying that, Gu Bai disappeared outside the door.

Only then did Xia Zhichu breathe a sigh of relief.

Teacher Thompson was also very embarrassed. He didn't expect that his student and his partner were actually love rivals. If a fight had really broken out, he, an old man, would not have known who to protect.

"The teacher laughed at me!"

Si Mochen calmed down and sat down with Xia Zhichu in his arms.

Teacher Tang Sen made tea for the two of them and then laughed. "Everyone has their youth. Think about it, I also competed with other men and got hurt in order to pursue your teacher's wife."

"As the saying goes, a gentleman loves a beautiful lady. It's only natural that other men would compete for the affections of a designer as outstanding as Mrs. Si."

Teacher Tang Sen originally wanted to comfort Si Mochen with good intentions, but it ended up making him jealous. When no one else was paying attention, he pinched Xia Zhichu.
