The fact that the boss is no longer single has nothing to do with him.
However, the boss will be happy when he finds a partner, and his work will go very smoothly.
A promotion and a raise are just around the corner!
Although I didn't get the best kiss, it's okay.
It's good to be together!
...
After their failed confession, Shi Xi and Xie Yunzhou showed no embarrassment and interacted as usual.
Xie Yunzhou took Shi Xi back to the Shi family home.
After Shi Xi got out of the car, his assistant couldn't help but congratulate him, saying, "Congratulations, Mr. Xie, on winning the heart of your beauty!"
Xie Yunzhou's smile vanished, replaced by a cold and indifferent expression. "She didn't agree."
assistant:?!?
Xie Yunzhou was gentle and considerate in front of Shi Xi, but he didn't need to put on such an act in front of his subordinates. "Put the Xin'an Technology acquisition plan on my desk tomorrow morning."
Isn't that needed next week?!
The assistant dared not disobey, "Yes, Mr. Xie."
I'll have to stay up all night again when I get back QAQ

Shi Xi returned home carrying the flowers and encountered her mother as soon as she entered the door.
Shi's mother casually asked, "Who sent the flowers?"
"Ah, this, this is, I..." Shi Xi couldn't explain it clearly.
"It must have been a gift from a fan again?" Shi Xu asked, sitting in the living room, trying to help Shi Xi out of the awkward situation.
Shi Xi snapped out of her daze and nodded, saying, "Yes, isn't it beautiful?"
"They're pretty, but not as pretty as Xixi's." Shi's mother took the flowers, had them placed in a vase, and asked, "What did you buy while shopping?"
"I didn't buy anything, just browsing." Shi Xi was afraid of saying too much and making a mistake, so she said, "Mom, I'm a little tired, I'm going upstairs to rest first."
"Take your cold medicine first."
Shi Xi stuck out her tongue, obediently took her cold medicine, and quickly went upstairs.
Thinking about what happened today still feels like a dream.
My phone vibrated; it was a message from Xie Yunzhou: "Are you free tomorrow?"
tomorrow?
I have filming tomorrow, so I'm busy.
Shi Xi asked, "What are you doing?"
If it's just for a meal, you can make time for it.
Xie Yunzhou: [Let's go to the amusement park.]
Tonight I'm just going to the amusement park to confess my feelings; I didn't get to see many of the park's clever design features.
It's really kind of Xie Yunzhou, a company CEO, to still be thinking of taking her to the amusement park.
Shi Xi glanced at her schedule and said, "Next week, maybe. I might be a bit busy these next few days."
Xie Yunzhou: [Okay, get some rest.]
Shi Xi put away her phone, hummed a song as she took a shower, and prepared to go to sleep.
Just as she was lying in bed preparing to sleep, there was a knock on the door.
There were four knocks on the door, neither too loud nor too soft.
It is a time sequence.
Shi's father never came to her room; Shi's mother would knock on the door and call her name.
Only the timing is clear: two consecutive knocks on the door.
"The door isn't locked, please come in," Shi Xi said.
Shi Xu pushed open the door and came in, looking at Shi Xi sitting on the bed, and asked, "Did Xie Yunzhou send you these flowers?"
Shi Xi gave a vague reply, "Mmm."
"Are you two together?" Shi Xu pressed.
“Uh, no,” Shi Xi explained weakly, “He and I are just friends.”
"Friends give each other roses?" Shi Xu raised an eyebrow, his gentle smile carrying a hint of pressure. "Xi Xi, you can't lie to your brother."
Shi Xi thought to herself, "You just lied to Mom!"
My brother is such a hypocrite!!
Left with no other choice, Shi Xi had to tell the truth: "He confessed his feelings to me, and I rejected him."
Shi Xu paused for a moment, then his smile widened. He reached out to touch Shi Xi's head and said, "Good riddance."
My hair is freshly dried!
Clean, neat hair!
Don't touch it!
Shi Xi dodged his hand and said, "I told you, you can't tell anyone else."
"I definitely won't tell." Shi Xu looked at his younger sister and sighed, "In the blink of an eye, Xi Xi has grown up."
