This office building is newly built, and there are still a few rooms that haven't been rented out.
Three days later, the empty space opposite Bai Qingzhi was being decorated.
On the fourth day, a person appeared across the street. Qiao Shanshan was the first to see him and immediately became wary.
"Tell that bitch that I will shatter her dreams bit by bit and avenge my brother Han!" The person who came was Hao Ni.
She also opened a studio across the street, just like Bai Qingzhi's, specializing in jewelry design.
Bai Qingzhi shrugged speechlessly after hearing Qiao Shanshan's message.
Xiao Yuan sat opposite her, smiling as he looked at Bai Qingzhi and asked:
"Should I contact a few big names in the design industry to come over?"
Whether it's for teaching or just to make a show of things.
"No need, I'm confident I can easily defeat that lunatic," Bai Qingzhi replied without even looking up, still studying the manuscript in her hand.
Looking at Bai Qingzhi's appearance, Xiao Yuan felt a pang of sadness.
He's been here for several days now, and Zhizhi spends all her time either researching designs or drawing drafts, so much so that he's been directly rejected whenever he tries to talk to her.
Keep in mind, they just started dating and should be in the honeymoon phase right now!
Seeing Bai Qingzhi lost in her own thoughts again, Xiao Yuan sighed helplessly, then tidied up his things, picked up his clothes, and stood up.
Bai Qingzhi, who was drawing, suddenly felt a shadow appear above her head, followed by a large hand covering her face.
“Let’s go on a date,” Xiao Yuan said.
Bai Qingzhi looked up and saw Xiao Yuan's aggrieved expression. She then looked at the painting on the table and was about to refuse.
Xiao Yuan must have seen through her thoughts, because sadness appeared in his eyes when he looked at her.
"I only get to rest for a few days a year, and I really want you to come with me to see the sights I've never had the chance to see before."
A hint of hesitation appeared on Bai Qingzhi's face.
Xiao Yuan's eyes flickered, knowing he had a chance, and he decisively continued:
"It's okay. I'm already content just watching you work. I always thought you would never accept me. After all, a man like me who knows nothing but work is very boring. Naïve, I was just complaining to you. I'm already very happy."
Xiao Yuan spoke without batting an eye, but Bai Qingzhi was stunned for a moment before frowning.
She wondered if she had gone too far.
I've been ignoring Xiao Yuan these past few days, and sometimes I even ignore him when he talks to me.
Looking up at Xiao Yuan's expression again, even though he pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, there was still hope in his eyes.
In an instant, Bai Qingzhi's heart softened.
With a snap, Bai Qingzhi shoved the manuscript into the drawer, a hint of guilt on her face, and said:
"I'm sorry, I've neglected you these past few days. Let's go on a date?"
Having achieved his goal, Xiao Yuan lowered his head and suppressed the smirk on his lips, returning to normal when he looked up again.
"Really? Thank you so much, Zhizhi." Xiao Yuan deliberately lowered his voice, with a hint of seduction in it.
Bai Qingzhi, who was already attracted by his good looks, was stunned for a moment, her eyes fixed on Xiao Yuan, who was getting closer and closer to her.
As if possessed, Bai Qingzhi suddenly kissed Xiao Yuan on the cheek.
The smack was exceptionally loud.
The sound also brought Bai Qingzhi back to her senses. Seeing the faint red lipstick mark on Xiao Yuan's cheek, Bai Qingzhi's face flushed red.
What the hell! I've been bewitched by this man again!
Feeling ashamed and indignant, Bai Qingzhi glared fiercely at Xiao Yuan.
But what she thought was a fierce glare was no different from a kitten's whining in Xiao Yuan's eyes, especially since her childish face was still red at the moment.
Taking a few deep breaths, Xiao Yuan touched his cheek and then broke into a bright smile.
Seeing Xiao Yuan about to leave with lipstick marks on his face, Bai Qingzhi hurriedly grabbed a tissue from the table and chased after him.
But Xiao Yuan's strides were too large, and there was a hint of deliberate sway, so the two of them left the office one after the other.
Yuan Na and Qiao Shanshan both looked up when they heard the voice, and then they saw the legendary aloof man from City A walk out with lipstick marks all over his face.
Looking back at Bai Qingzhi, who was furious, the two of them understood everything.
They all looked at Bai Qingzhi with teasing eyes, which made her even more shy.
Xiao Yuan was afraid that if he went any further, he would really make Zhizhi angry, so he slowed down. Bai Qingzhi immediately grabbed his sleeve and then vigorously wiped his face with a tissue.
Xiao Yuan blushed as he used too much force without realizing it, and Bai Qingzhi stopped moving.
Guilt appeared in his eyes.
"I'm sorry..." Bai Qingzhi didn't expect this and apologized in a flustered manner.
Xiao Yuan grabbed her fingers and then placed them on his face.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
After saying that, seeing that Zhizhi was still not better, Xiao Yuan's eyes darted around and he leaned closer to her, whispering:
"If Zhizhi feels guilty, she can do it again."
After saying that, he deliberately grabbed her finger and tapped it on her face, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Bai Qingzhi gritted her teeth and pushed him hard, then turned and ran towards the door.
Xiao Yuan watched Bai Qingzhi's retreating figure, a doting smile appearing on his face. He then quickly took a few steps and grabbed her hand.
Watching the two figures leave, Yuan Na and Qiao Shanshan's eyes revealed envy.
"Wow, President Xiao is so doting on Qingzhi! I'm so jealous, being single!" Qiao Shanshan said with an exaggerated expression.
"Yes, I also wish I had Qingzhi's good fortune, with a rich family and a rich boyfriend..." Yuan Na replied naturally.
After hearing this, Qiao Shanshan looked at Yuan Na with a puzzled expression. She felt that there was something wrong with what Yuan Na said, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was after thinking about it carefully.
Bai Qingzhi walked out of the company building with her head down, and then noticed that many construction vehicles were driving up around her.
Xiao Yuan followed behind her, looking in the direction she was looking.
"Is this place going to be developed?" Bai Qingzhi asked curiously.
This land was originally barren and was abandoned by City A. Xiao Yuan's choice of this location for the headquarters of Zhiyuan Company was beyond her expectations.
But Bai Qingzhi also guessed that it might be because Xiao Yuan didn't have enough money.
But now, she doesn't understand which foolish, rich fool would invest in this?
"I haven't heard any news," Xiao Yuan replied, his eyes flickering.
Bai Qingzhi wanted to pay more attention, but Xiao Yuan pulled her over directly.
"Zhizhi, won't you let me go on a date? Are those construction vehicles more attractive than me?"
Seeing Xiao Yuan deliberately acting cute, Bai Qingzhi's eyes narrowed with laughter.
“Brother Yuan, I think you’re better suited to the cool and aloof style, the kind that’s flashy, cool, and stylish.”
Xiao Yuan remained unmoved and continued speaking while holding Bai Qingzhi's hand:
"I'm only showing this side to you."
Amidst laughter and conversation, the two got into the car. Xiao Yuan personally fastened Bai Qingzhi's seatbelt, which made Bai Qingzhi blush again.
When she saw Xiao Yuan suddenly lean in, she thought he was going to...
