Knowing that Nan Xian was always shy, He Mingxiao did not bring up the matter of learning to meow after the voice call ended that evening.
The two of them, in perfect unison, chose to pretend that nothing had happened.
He told Nan Xian all the spells and incantations he knew about sealing items, and thoughtfully included the corresponding methods to undo them.
Nan Xian was extremely grateful and tried each of the methods.
Unfortunately, the seals on the glass bottle are not commonly seen. Simple spells cannot open them, while the more complex ones require the caster to possess a certain level of spiritual power and be skilled in using it.
In other words, even cultivators might not be able to open it, let alone ordinary people.
Nan Xian had no choice but to postpone opening the bottle. Fortunately, the tree spirit remained well-behaved inside and did not exhibit the abnormal behavior she had feared.
Because of this incident involving opening the bottle, the two have been in close contact recently.
Of course, without exception, the conversation always started with serious business and ended with casual chat and saying goodnight to each other.
Without realizing it, their conversations became longer and their topics of discussion gradually deepened.
From the tiny ant to the vast universe; from the breeze that lifts a strand of hair in the morning to major events that influence the international situation; from ancient times to the present, from heaven to earth, they talk about everything.
It was through these in-depth conversations night after night that Nan Xian was pleasantly surprised to discover that she and [.h] had many things in common.
He could always quickly understand what she meant and analyze her points in depth.
Of course, since it's a communication, disagreements are inevitable.
Occasionally, they may have differing opinions. At such times, he will not forcefully force her to accept his views like most men who have long held high positions and are used to wielding power. Instead, he will listen patiently and express himself carefully.
He truly treated them as equals, like a worthy opponent.
This made Nan Xian very happy.

Assistant Jiang noticed that her boss seemed... a little off lately.
That day, after the boss left Miss Nan's room looking dejected, he locked himself in his house and didn't show up for a day and a night. He didn't answer the phone or reply to text messages, which scared her so much that she almost thought he had done something stupid.
A few days ago, the boss finally returned to the company to handle some business, but he kept picking up an old, yellowed book with a peeling cover and reading it so intently that he didn't even notice me getting close.
Jiang's assistant was really curious, so he secretly flipped through the book during one of his meetings and found that it was full of strange talismans and portraits of people dressed in flowing robes like ancient people.
Before he could even look at it closely, he felt a wave of dizziness and his breathing and heartbeat became rapid. He instinctively closed the book, and his body immediately returned to normal.
Because of this strange incident, he began to secretly pay attention to He Mingxiao, and then he discovered—
The boss has been in a very peaceful mood lately. Even when a major mistake occurred at one of He's hotels, he didn't use drastic measures to intimidate people as he used to. Instead, he resolved the problem in a very gentle way.
This is not He Mingxiao's style.
In addition, on several occasions, Assistant Jiang witnessed him suddenly change his expression while he was focused on something, then hurriedly enter the lounge and only come out after a long time.
He couldn't help but let his imagination run wild, thinking of those fantasy novels where a supporting character is possessed, their personality drastically changed, as if they were a completely different person...
Assistant Jiang was confused.
...My boss might have been possessed. Is it too late for me to resign now?
