The next day.
Shi Qian slowly opened her eyes and looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was almost noon.
Shang Sizhan was no longer by her side.
Shi Qian stretched her back and her sore muscles. Then, she put on a spaghetti-strap dress and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Shi Qian stood before the mirror. She was shocked to see the bruises on her body. She could not help but think of Shang Sizhan’s hungry wolf appearance last night.
Shi Qian’s cheeks were slightly hot, and she no longer looked at the mirror.
She tidied up and changed her clothes. She went downstairs.
She was about to go to the restaurant to eat something when Baili Xi appeared out of nowhere.
“Qianqian.”
Shi Qian turned to look at him.
“Qianqian, had Master Zhan agreed to take you to North America?” Baili Xi walked over with a meaningful smile.
“Hmm? How did you know?” Shi Qian looked at him in confusion.
“You woke up so late. You must not have worked so hard for nothing,” said Baili Xi with a smile.
Shi Qian was at a loss for words.
Shi Qian rolled her eyes at him and continued to walk. She did not say anything.
Baili Xi smiled and said, “Hey, wait. Alright, it was Master Zhan who asked the servants to pack your things in the morning. He even specially instructed many things. I guessed that Master Zhan agreed to let you go.
“Moreover, Master Zhan seemed to be in a good mood this morning. In his joy, he even gave that guy, Zhui Ying, a year-end bonus and an extra week of vacation.”
Shi Qian was startled. “What has Zhui Ying done?” Shi Qian raised her eyebrows slightly.
“He didn’t do anything unusual. It’s just his usual job. It’s just that Master Zhan happened to be in a good mood.”
“You don’t have one?” Shi Qian smiled.
“I was just pa.s.sing by. Zhui Ying just happened to complete a mission and reported to Master Zhan this morning. Sigh, luck is not something that everyone has.”
“That’s true.” Shi Qian nodded.
“Hey, by the way, are you busy today?” Baili Xi asked.
“This time, won’t we be out for a long time? I’ll go to Chuangyue. What’s wrong? What do you want?”
“No, I was just asking. If you have something to do, go ahead,” Baili Xi replied.
Shi Qian went to Chuangyue Technology in the afternoon. The Technical and Engineering Departments were to discuss some of the functions of her new design.
Then, the Technical Department would test, install, and upgrade it.
Shi Qian left Chuangyue Technology at around four in the afternoon.
Xu Muchen personally sent her downstairs.
A figure appeared in the elevator.
“CEO Xu, I’ll be leaving the capital for some time soon. Just call me if there’s anything.” Shi Qian said.
“Alright, Miss Shi,” Xu Muchen replied. He paused for a moment. Then he continued. “Also, Miss Shi, I’ve already sent the financial report for the first half of the year to your email a few days ago. I’m not sure if you’ve seen it.”
“No, I haven’t.” Shi Qian turned to look at him and smiled. “CEO Xu, didn’t I tell you before that you don’t have to send me anything related to finance?”
She did not care how much Absolute Subversion earned in a year. She had not even seen the dividends in her account.
Shi Qian left Chuangyue. She went to the nearby JE Group.
She went upstairs, and Shang Sizhan had just finished his meeting and came out of the meeting room. The two went back to the office together.
Shang Sizhan dealt with a pile of doc.u.ments at his desk.
Shi Qian sat beside him. She used her laptop filled with all kinds of confidential information to edit the manga.
Shang Sizhan suddenly stopped after a while. He looked at the girl beside him.
Shi Qian noticed his gaze from the corner of her eye and turned to look at him..
