Zhao Weige said that the outer screen of Dai Shutao's mobile phone model was out of stock and the phone could only be delivered the next day. Dai Shutao, who never paid much attention to communication tools, was not in a hurry.

After being sent home by Hu Ke and listening to the work arrangements for the next day, she waved lazily at the man and walked to the door of her villa.

Just as she was about to enter the password, Dai Shutao heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Dai Shutao." Turning around, Dai Shutao saw Qin Guican, wearing an apron, smiling at her apologetically.

The man was handsome to begin with, and his washed hair lay gently on his forehead, which made his cold and decisive face look a little more childish, a bit like a college student in his twenties.

If Dai Shutao hadn't been thinking that the other party was her boss, she would really have whistled at him.

"My water pipe burst at home, and I'm waiting for the property management. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to come to your house for dinner."

Did the water pipe burst? Dai Shutao subconsciously looked behind the man. Whether intentionally or not, Qin Guican happened to block Dai Shutao's sight.

"If you don't mind the mess inside, please come in, Mr. Qin."

Dai Shutao didn't want to chase the person away, so she opened the door with a fake smile. After Dai Shutao went in, Qin Guican followed.

After all, this was just a place for Dai Shutao to live for a short period of time, so she didn't buy too many personal items, mostly musical instruments.

Dai Shu likes both quiet and dark environments, so she replaced the original white gauze curtains and bought dark linen curtains to hang up.

There were a few coats thrown on the sofa, all of which Dai Shutao had thrown casually after returning home for the first few times.

Qin Guican took a quick glance and followed Dai Shutao closely.

The woman seemed to have no awareness of bringing a grown man back home. She walked to the refrigerator and hesitated for a long time before asking, "Mr. Qin, would you like some water or a drink?"

As a guest, Qin Guican was quite self-aware and said, "Give me what you're drinking."

Dai Shutao nodded, picked up two bottles of mineral water, closed the refrigerator door with her arm, walked to the dining table, and saw the instant noodles she had not finished in the morning.

"Is this what you usually eat?" Qin Guican frowned slightly and looked at the dozens of different types of instant noodles placed in the kitchen, feeling a little unhappy.

Hu Ke is Dai Shutao's agent after all. In addition to being responsible for her daily social activities, he should also be responsible for her normal life.

If an artist has health problems, the only thing that will be affected in the end is his work.

Dai Shutao felt subtly embarrassed as if she had been caught, and she let out an "ah" and handed the water to Qin Guican.

"I was in such a hurry this morning. This is convenient... Mr. Qin, when will the property management arrive? Is the burst pipe serious?"

Qin Guican remained calm: "Not bad."

What kind of answer is that?

As soon as he let the person in, Dai Shutao felt a little regretful. He wondered how he could get this great god to leave, but he couldn't say it out loud. He just laughed dryly and said, "Boss Qin, I'm going upstairs to look for something. How about you wait downstairs for a while?"

Seeing that Dai Shutao didn't want to be in the same room with him, Qin Guican didn't get angry. He nodded slightly to show his agreement.

After Dai Shutao left, Qin Guican turned around and began to look around the room.

This villa is actually owned by Qin Guican. If it weren't for his disappointing cousin who was always following him, he wouldn't have let Dai Shutao live in it.

The house was no different from before he handed it over to Dai Shutao. Nothing had even been added to the house. The TV cabinet was spotless, as if the occupants were about to leave at any moment.

Apart from some things that made Qin Guican very unhappy, he was quite satisfied with the rest.

Very good, there are no photos with other men, and no trace of Liang Xiu.

He thought that people like Dai Shutao, even if they said that they had nothing to do with Liang Xiu and acted calm, would be immersed in the pain of a broken heart in private.

You know, Liang Xiu is now trying his best to show his love with Su Weiwei online, constantly touching the hearts of fans, and his eyes are full of affection when he looks at Su Weiwei, which makes Qin Guican couldn't help but sneer.

If he really loved his sister so much, he would not have done something like looking for Dai Shutao in private.

When Dai Shutao went downstairs, she saw the man frowning slightly, looking a little unhappy, with his thin lips pursed, and his hanging hair unexpectedly creating a youthful look for the man, which almost made Dai Shutao unable to match him with the difficult man in her memory.

Tilting his head, Dai Shutao reached out and knocked on the wall. The "dong dong" sound brought Qin Guican back to his senses quickly.

The hostility in his eyes dissipated instantly. Qin Guican raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a warm smile. He imitated Dai Shutao's movements and tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't understand why the woman was standing far away.

Dai Shutao was shaken by the smile on Qin Guican's face, and tried hard to remind herself in her heart that the person in front of her was a lion who was good at camouflage and it was impossible to approach him easily, so she asked politely.

"Boss Qin, I need to order some takeout later. How about you stay at my place?"

This was purely politeness. Just based on the meal that Dai Shutao had at Qin Guican's place, one could tell that Qin Guican had very high demands on life. How could he possibly settle for anything but that?

As for her living environment, I believe Qin Guican has also seen it. She just gets by, and it's quite makeshift. It's impossible for her to order any delicacies.

Dai Shutao had already planned the regretful expression Qin Guican should show when he rejected her, but who knew that the man would not play by the rules at all.

After she asked, she looked happy.

"That's truly an honor. There's a delicious takeout place nearby. I've already troubled you to take me in for so long, so why not let me treat you to this meal?"

Nearby? Dai Shutao's mind worked quickly. She had checked nearby takeouts and found one with a high rating and very reasonable prices.

The price of a piece of tuna sushi soared to three digits, making Dai Shutao wonder whether tuna was really made of gold.

"I remember you said on the show before that you really like Japanese food, right? Are there any dietary restrictions? Or is everything okay?"

While asking the question, Qin Guican took out his cell phone and swiped his fingers across the screen several times before looking up at the woman.

"I've ordered. Do you want anything else?"

Dai Shutao was stunned. Was this CEO truly ignorant of the ways of the world, or was he just playing dumb? Couldn't he tell she was just being polite?

His behavior of making decisions directly also confused Dai Shutao. If she didn't know, she would think that this was his home and she was the guest.

Since the other party was so proactive, Dai Shutao felt embarrassed to continue being a miser.

“秦总，多少钱要不我们……”AA没说出来，戴树桃就看见秦归璨接了通电话，扭头走到门口开门。
