Her expression suddenly changed, but after a moment she pretended nothing was wrong and approached Chu Yunxing again.
"Ah Xing, why are you so late?" Song Xingchen said sweetly, leaning closer and trying to take his hand affectionately.
Assistant Lu continued to obstruct the process diligently, glancing nervously at Bai Wan'er beside him.
Fortunately, Bai Wan'er didn't show any strange expression on her face. Instead, she watched the two of them with amusement.
Chu Yunxing felt inexplicably irritated and warned coldly, "You should go back first."
"Ah Xing, I admit I was too impulsive a while ago, but it was only because I love you too much. I've thought it over carefully and I will definitely not do anything out of line again," Song Xingchen said anxiously.
At this moment, she had no intention of showing off to Bai Wan'er at all; all she could think about was getting Chu Yunxing's forgiveness.
Chu Yunxing had completely lost all patience and glanced indifferently at Assistant Lu.
Assistant Lu immediately understood his meaning, turned to Song Xingchen, and advised, "Miss Song, your current behavior is already out of line. Master Yun has a meeting to attend, please do not disturb him any further."
Song Xingchen wanted to fight for her chance, but Assistant Lu forced her to leave.
Bai Wan'er watched her departing figure, hesitant to speak, until the two were about to walk into the conference room side by side, when she finally spoke in a low voice: "Isn't this too cruel of you?"
“I have nothing to do with her anymore, and there’s no need for me to respond to her persistence.”
Song Xingchen is an adult and should naturally understand what she is doing.
If she continues to be so stubborn, Chu Yunxing will not let her off the hook.
Bai Wan'er nodded thoughtfully, feeling an indescribable sense of regret.
"Actually, she has her own life, but she lost herself in love. Perhaps you could have a good talk with her and clear up any misunderstandings as soon as possible. If you really are not meant to be, you can part ways amicably."
After Bai Wan'er finished speaking, she did not hear Chu Yunxing's reply.
She subconsciously turned her head and found him staring at her quietly.
"You want us to make up?"
Unexpectedly, Chu Yunxing would ask her such a question. Bai Wan'er opened her mouth, but found herself speechless.
I can't quite describe the feeling; it's as if I don't want to see them being intimate, but I also subconsciously try to reconcile them.
Never before had Bai Wan'er experienced such complex inner turmoil, and she gradually began to doubt herself.
It seems that everything has become very strange since I returned to China.
Whether it's my own state of mind or the various things that happen, everything seems a bit off.
It all started with Song Mai, who looked just like her.
So many people said they looked like her that I secretly went to search for Song Mai's appearance.
The moment she saw her face appear on the screen, she was in a daze.
Seeing that Bai Wan'er still hadn't learned how to guide him, Chu Yunxing said in a low voice, "Let's have a meeting first."
At this moment, Song Xingchen, who had been kicked out, came downstairs in a huff, only to suddenly see An An walking in with a curious expression, looking around at everything.
A bold idea suddenly popped into her head: perhaps she could learn more about Bai Wan'er from the girl.
She carefully walked to An'an's side, smiling gently, "Little girl, why are you here all alone?"
An'an took a step back warily, nervously clutching the teddy bear in her arms, and said softly, "Aunt Song Xingchen, I know you."
Song Xingchen was taken aback. In her memory, she had never had any direct contact with An'an.
The only time we met was a fleeting glance at each other in a coffee shop.
She instinctively looked around nervously, making sure An'an wasn't accompanied by any adults, before bending down and asking seriously, "How did you know about me?"
"Uncle Ji had shown me photos of many people before, so he recognized you at a glance. You're Uncle Yun's girlfriend, right?"
Although Song Xingchen couldn't help but laugh at "Uncle Yun's" words, she was very pleased with An An's words.
She nodded proudly, her tone softening slightly: "That's right."
"Did you come to see me for something?"
An'an spoke like a little adult, her big, watery eyes still full of vigilance.
“I know your mother. It’s not safe for you to be here alone. How about I take you to get some cake?” Song Xingchen made sure that no adults were with her before continuing her attack.
An'an remained wary, her eyes shifting slightly: "Can you give me your mother's contact information?"
Song Xingchen hesitated for a moment, then lowered his posture and slowly squatted down in front of her: "Your mother and I are just acquaintances, not so familiar that we can exchange contact information. Since your mother has recently been cooperating with Master Yun, and I have a close relationship with Master Yun, you naturally don't need to worry."
Her words convinced An'an, who nodded thoughtfully and said in a low voice, "What you said makes sense."
As soon as Bai Wan'er stepped out of the meeting room after the meeting ended, Chu Yunxing strode after her.
Are there any other issues with the project?
Bai Wan'er shook her head: "No problem. The series of clothing with the theme of redemption and peace can be designed soon and will be completed within the expected time."
"If you need any help, you're welcome anytime." Chu Yunxing looked down at her.
Bai Wan'er always felt that there was an unnatural probing in his eyes, which made her very curious.
But when she was with Chu Yunxing, she couldn't see any flaws at all.
She quickly dismissed the strange feeling and suddenly received a call from Ji Fenghe in the elevator.
"An'an is missing!"
The moment those words were spoken, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of both Bai Wan'er and Chu Yunxing.
They looked at each other without prior arrangement, and could feel the coldness on each other's faces.
"Isn't she home?"
Bai Wan'er didn't care that there were outsiders present and anxiously asked.
“I brought her to the company to pick you up, but she answered a phone call halfway there and disappeared in the blink of an eye,” Ji Feng said worriedly. “I’m looking for her in the lobby right now; maybe she just went off to play somewhere else.”
Bai Wan'er put the call on speakerphone, and Chu Yunxing heard the whole story.
Seeing Bai Wan'er's pale face, he immediately dialed a number: "Blockade Group, do not allow anyone to enter or leave."
Unexpectedly, Chu Yunxing went so far as to freeze the company in order to help her. Bai Wan'er couldn't help but feel guilty and subconsciously whispered, "It's probably just the child being playful. It's alright."
"The child's safety is always the top priority. I will find An'an with you."
As the two of them stepped off the elevator together, Ji Fenghe looked at them with a complicated expression.
