Feng Lingyi chuckled softly, her eyes filled with growing appreciation.
"President Qin's observations are meticulous and his thinking is thorough; it is truly unexpected."
She gently twirled the water glass in her hand, her gaze falling on Qin Xiao's deep eyes, her tone carrying a hint of teasing that seemed both genuine and unserious.
"A man as considerate and capable as President Qin must have a constant stream of female admirers around him, right?"
Qin Xiao waved his hand, his smile still gentle, but his eyes were clear and open, as if they could reflect people's hearts.
"Mr. Feng is too kind."
"So-called confidantes are mostly just scenery on life's journey. Meeting them is fate, but how long you can stay together depends on destiny."
His gaze became more focused as he intently stared at Feng Lingyi.
"But a girl like CEO Feng, who possesses both stunning beauty and worldly wisdom..."
"To be honest, I had never had the chance to get to know Ms. Feng before I met her."
Looking into Qin Xiao's eyes, which seemed to contain a galaxy, Feng Lingyi's heart skipped a beat without warning, and she was momentarily stunned.

Feng Lingyi slammed down the phone, her face so dark it looked like it could drip water; clearly, the call had ignited a lot of anger within her.
Just then, the waiter began to serve the dishes.
Each exquisite dish was placed on the table like a work of art.
Qin Xiao picked up his knife and fork and elegantly cut off a small piece of steak, his movements unhurried and deliberate.
He raised his head, looked at Feng Lingyi who was still furious, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.
"I wonder, Mr. Feng, having come all this way, how much do you believe in the long-standing Chinese tradition of fortune-telling?"
"If you don't mind, I can do a divination for you for free, Mr. Feng. Perhaps it can help you resolve some of your current troubles."
