"Hey, tell me, didn't you grow up with the boss? Has the boss ever had a girlfriend before? What did she look like? What type of girl does the boss like? Maybe I can introduce him to someone next time, and the boss will be so happy that he'll let me come back."
Gu Yao stopped in his tracks, wanting to say something, but hesitated.
It's best not to tell Annie the truth, she's such a gossip.
"If you don't want to die so soon, don't introduce any random people to the president. The anger he vented on you today was nothing compared to what he did today. If you cross his line again, not only will I be unable to protect you, but we'll both be packing our bags and leaving."
"Okay, okay, don't scare me. I was just saying."
Annie couldn't contain her curiosity. It was just an introduction to a potential partner, so why was the boss so averse to the opposite sex? Could he really have some kind of mental illness? Sigh, how pitiful.

After folding the blankets on the hospital bed neatly, Bai Xiaoruo went into the bathroom to change into the new clothes that Annie had brought her.
The bruising at the corner of my mouth has faded a lot and is barely noticeable unless you look closely.
I didn't go home all night, and I don't know if my father will be very angry.
I should have known better than to go to that place last night; it was too dangerous.
After leaving the hospital, Bai Xiaoruo headed straight home.
This area is quite far from the Bai family's house, and it will be afternoon by the time I walk back. However, I'm used to walking all these years, so I'll just take the opportunity to enjoy the scenery along the way.
The most bustling commercial street in the city center.
An elderly couple, seemingly in love, walked out of the mall, chatting and laughing.
Suddenly, the old lady remembered something and quickly opened her bag to search for something.
"What's wrong? What are you looking for?"
"Oh no! It really didn't put it in."
"What should we put in?"
"We just went to buy earrings, but I forgot to bring back my old earrings. What should we do?" The old lady was very anxious; those old earrings held a special meaning for her.
"I just bought you a new one, so it's okay to throw away the old one. If you like that style, I'll have someone make two identical ones for you next time."
The old lady was a little unhappy. "Even if you order a new one, it won't be the original one. That was a birthday gift you gave me two years ago. How can I just throw it away? No, I have to go find it." With that, the old lady turned around and tried to go back into the mall to look for it.
The old man quickly grabbed her arm. "Hey, don't wander around. You've been walking all day, and your legs aren't very good to begin with, so don't walk so much. I'll go upstairs and help you find it. I just called the driver, he'll be here in a bit. Just wait for me here, I'll be right down."
"Alright then, come out quickly once you've found it."
"Okay." The old man reassured his wife and turned to go back into the mall.
