"Knock, knock, knock..." A sudden knock on the door interrupted Jiang Baizhi's thoughts. She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then said, "Come in!"
The door was slowly pushed open, and in walked Jiang Baizhi's fiancé Zhao Guangbai.
"Xiaozhi, how are you? Are you okay? Are you still feeling unwell?" Zhao Guangbai walked quickly to the bedside and sat down, asking with concern, his eyes full of worry.
"I'm much better, Guangbai, I'm sorry to have made you worry." Jiang Baizhi felt a sweet feeling in her heart when she saw her fiancé was so worried about her. She said with a smile, and that smile was as warm as the spring breeze.
"I'm sorry, I've been a little busy lately. A very powerful boss has recently come to Hai City. His identity is unknown, and he is said to be from Jing City. All the major families want to establish a relationship with him as soon as possible, so I've been so busy that I've neglected you." Zhao Guangbai touched Jiang Baizhi's forehead with his hand with concern, and confirmed that she did not have a fever, and then he felt a little relieved.
"It's okay, your work is important. I will take good care of myself. You don't have to worry about me. I'm not a little woman hiding behind you. I will walk side by side with you!" Jiang Baizhi said gently, her eyes full of understanding and tolerance.
"I know, I understand you. My Xiaozhi is the most amazing, but I am also wrong. No matter how busy I am, I should not ignore you. You must have suffered a lot of grievances recently. I have heard about your sister. She..." Before Zhao Guangbai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Baizhi in a gentle voice.
"It's okay, Guangbai, I really haven't suffered any injustice. My sister is indeed very outstanding, but I'm not bad either. I have my own efforts and persistence. In fact, my sister has always been very good to me, but what everyone sees may be the surface. She is actually a very good person..." Jiang Baizhi lowered her eyes slightly and spoke sincerely. Her voice became smaller and smaller, but a trace of imperceptible cunning flashed across her face with her head lowered.
"Yes, yes, of course you are the best! In my heart, you will always be the brightest star. However, don't endure any grievances. You must know that the Jiang family and the Zhao family are backing you up! It's easy for a mere Qu Qingdai and her useless brother to bring them down. Don't be too kind, otherwise you will be bullied by them. Look at how many things happened when you were recording a variety show. It made me and my parents very worried!" Zhao Guangbai said while stroking Jiang Baizhi's hair, his tone full of pampering and love.
"I know, you're the best to me." Jiang Baizhi raised her head slightly, a happy smile on her face, and then slowly leaned into Zhao Guangbai's arms, feeling his warmth and love. But deep in her heart, there was a subtle sense of pride and calculation.

After the second episode of the show ended successfully, Qu Qingdai said goodbye to the other guests one by one and left. She carried a suitcase in one hand and held her cell phone in the other, talking on the phone as she hurriedly walked out of the venue.
"Hey, Amo, I'm done. Are you there? I'm on my way out now!" Qu Qingdai's voice was full of anticipation.
"I'm early, baby. Walk slowly to avoid falling. Also, look to your left." Su Jingmo responded gently on the other end of the phone with a hint of smile in his tone.
Upon hearing this, Qu Qingdai paused and turned slightly to her left. She saw a tall man wearing a cool pair of black sunglasses, leisurely leaning against a brand-new Maserati. A warm smile played on his lips as he gazed at her affectionately. Then, a delighted smile instantly spread across Qu Qingdai's face, her eyes sparkling like two twinkling stars.
"Amo!" Qu Qingdai called out cheerfully, her voice clear and resonant, filled with deep longing and excitement. She dragged her suitcase tightly, her steps brisk and nimble, like a cheerful little bird, running towards Su Jingmo with full energy.
Behind her, the wheels of the suitcase were spinning rapidly on the ground, making a slight and rapid sound.
"Slow down! Don't fall!" Seeing Qu Qingdai so agitated, Su Jingmo's heart was filled with pity and worry. He quickly took long strides and walked towards her, each step firm and powerful, as if he was afraid she might make the slightest mistake. At the same time, Su Jingmo stretched out his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness and love, filled with longing and love for Qu Qingdai.
"Mo, I miss you!" Qu Qingdai's voice was filled with a hint of coquettishness. She threw herself into Su Jingmo's arms like a young swallow. She hugged Su Jingmo tightly, burying her face in his chest, feeling his warmth and breath, as if only in this way could she release all the longing and concern she had felt for him in the past few days.
"Me too. As the saying goes, a day without seeing you feels like three years. We haven't seen each other for three days! It really feels like a year!" Su Jingmo hugged Qu Qingdai tightly around her waist, burying his head in her hair, breathing in her unique fragrance, feeling her presence. His heart was filled with longing and love for her, and now he could finally release it.
Qu Qingdai did not respond to Su Jingmo's words, but rubbed her head gently in his warm arms, as if enjoying this rare warm moment.
"Okay, Daidai, get in the car and let's go home." Su Jingmo's voice was full of pampering, and he said gently.
"Yeah." Qu Qingdai nodded obediently, then poked her head out of Su Jingmo's arms, suddenly stood on tiptoe, and kissed Su Jingmo on the cheek. Before Su Jingmo could react, she quickly slipped into the car like a naughty little rabbit.
