The dismissal was quite blunt. Ji Nianqin wasn't embarrassed and smiled, "Then I won't bother you any longer. There's a small concert tonight, and I got an extra ticket. If Jiu Yuan is free..."
“No time.” Rong Shenghan interrupted him, his tone calm but with an undeniable forcefulness. “She has to go to the lab tonight to check on Yuan Xu’s fluorescent bacteria, and she also has to have Japanese food with President Xie. Her schedule is full.”
He deliberately mentioned Yuan Xu and Xie Zhecheng's names, as if showing off his control over Yu Jiuyuan's schedule.
Ji Nianqin's smile faded slightly, but she still maintained her composure: "That's really unfortunate. Maybe next time."

Yu Jiuyuan picked up the pen and signed her name on the club application form. Her handwriting was sharp and assertive, just like her, always in control of the situation.
Rong Shenghan looked at her focused profile, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes, which was then replaced by deeper indulgence.
