The man holding the box in both hands stretched it out forward, as if afraid she wouldn't take it.
"Ms. Su, please give your regards to your husband on behalf of our CEO."
Su Jin then accepted the answer. She had been wondering if their respect for her was because of Gu Xingze.
It seems so.
Her mindset changed slightly, very subtly.
She was showered with adoration by those around her; if all that applause truly belonged to her…
"A Jin?"
Su Jin turned around, waved to the people around her, and left the crowd.
Walking up to the person who had come, she said, "You're here too. Is your injury healed?"
Shen Yanxiu smiled, his dark eyes crinkling. "I'm much better now that I heard you were coming."

Shen Yanxiu pursed his lips.
"I'm afraid that what I'm doing might be a bit out of line, and that you'll... hate me."
