Xu Xi also hugged Chen Shuning with both hands. "I ordered takeout. Do you want to sleep a little longer? I'll wake you up when the takeout arrives."

"No." Chen Shuning kissed Xu Xi and held her tightly, pressing her towards him. "I'm going to take a shower."

Xu Xi: "Okay."

When the takeaway was delivered, Chen Shuning had already finished taking a shower.

Xu Xi stood by the dining table, unpacking her takeout while saying to Chen Shuning, "After breakfast, I'm going back to my rental apartment. I've already received some orders online for outsourced drawings from companies, and I've already paid the deposit. I need to go back and get the drawings ready for them."

Chen Shuning walked over to the dining table and sat down for a while, thinking that he had nothing to do today and could go with her. "Then I'll go with you."

Xu Xi blinked. "Okay."

After she finished speaking, she paused and added, "But it's a bit of a mess over there."

After having breakfast together, Xu Xi took Chen Shuning to her small rental house. On the way, Xu Xi bought some fruit, milk tea and some snacks.

When entering the door, Xu Xi found a new pair of slippers for Chen Shuning to change into.

Xu Xi: "My place is a little small, please go sit on the sofa first."

Chen Shuning glanced around Xu Xi's small rental apartment. It was devoid of any signs of life. She even noticed a desk, the kind you'd find in a typical office.

She couldn't help but ask Xu Xi, "Did you often bring work home to do it?"

"Yeah." Xu Xi pursed her lips and nodded. Not only did she often bring work home, but she had even lost her life once because of it. She couldn't help but look at her work desk. She had bought a desk when she first started, thinking that using it would make her feel more like she was at work, and that her work efficiency would be greatly improved.

Her room was small and there was nothing much to introduce, so she took out her laptop, opened a movie for Chen Shuning, and asked Chen Shuning to sit on the sofa and watch it. Then she pointed to the place where she used to work and said:

"Ningning, you can watch the movie here for a while. I'll go over and take care of something."

Chen Shuning smiled slightly. "Okay."

Xu Xi sat at her computer desk, found the previous information, and then started drawing.

After painting for more than an hour, Xu Xi felt her eyes were a little dry, so she looked out the window and rubbed her eyes. Just at this moment, Chen Shuning came over with some cut fruit.

Chen Shuning placed the small plate of fruit on Xu Xi's desk.

"Eat some fruit and take a break."

Xu Xi glanced at the cut fruits, neatly placed on the fruit plate with bamboo sticks on top, and her heart warmed. In fact, she had very few things here, including the kitchen. Because there were few things, if she wanted to find something, she could find it quickly. She could tell what was there at a glance.

Xu Xi: "Thank you."

She picked up a piece of fruit and handed it to Chen Shuning: "You eat first."

Chen Shuning ate the fruit Xu Xi handed her, then walked behind her. She glanced at the drawing she'd drawn, but even with that brief glance, she felt a familiarity. She'd drawn this drawing before.

However, she later learned that the blueprint she had drawn was part of a company's competition for a patent for a mechanical part for a large machine. Winning the patent would have been a huge profit for the company. However, she also received word that her father's company was also vying for the project. In other words, she had unwittingly become the "manipulator" of the Chen Group's rivals.

Chen Shuning was also shocked at the time, and she knew she couldn't do such a thing. Although she didn't get along with her family, she knew she couldn't do it.

That's why she quit her previous job and found a job in a company that did not have the right to compete, just wanting to go to her job peacefully.

I never thought this would be sent out for someone to draw. This kind of patented thing, all the data is confidential, how could it be sent out like this?

Chen Shuning felt something was wrong. She lowered her eyes to glance at Xu Xi and asked casually:

"Xixi, where do you get all these orders?"

Xu Xi raised her eyes and leaned back, glanced at Chen Shuning, then looked at the computer screen.

"I just looked for them on some apps. The one I'm drawing now was found on someone else's forum. It said it was a parts drawing. It looks simple, but it was quite challenging to draw."

Xu Xi reached out and grabbed the fruit beside her and began to eat. She didn't think these online outsourcing orders were anything special. Most of the orders she usually received were for parts needed for machine tools in large factories, and she felt this one would be no exception.

Chen Shuning pursed his lips slightly, his eyes fixed on the computer screen. He then asked Xu Xi:

"Do you know which company issued it?"

Xu Xi blinked and glanced at the computer screen. "I don't know, anonymous."
