lu zhen felt uncomfortable under song jia’s gaze. she opened her mouth and was about to say something when song jia suddenly walked up to her and pulled his hand out of his pocket. then, he raised his hand and placed the back of his hand on her forehead.

lu zhen was stunned for two seconds before taking two steps back. the warmth on the back of song jia’s hand seemed to have not dissipated. lu zhen blushed.

seeing lu zhen’s huge reaction, song jia’s eyes moved slightly and he retracted his hand. “aren’t you sick? why don’t you rest for a while more?” how did song jia know that she was sick?

“xiaoxiao told me. she said that you’re still studying when you’re sick.” song jia looked up. his face under his baseball cap was very calm, as if he and lu zhen hadn’t had a conflict yesterday.

when song jia looked at lu zhen, lu zhen suddenly had a shocking guess.

could it be that song jia suddenly ran over because he knew that she was sick? “i just caught a little cold. i slept after drinking the cold medicine. i’m much better. i’m really fine,” lu zhen explained in a dry voice. “you still have to rest well. you want to go to the set? i’ll drive you.”

lu zhen hurriedly waved her hand. “no need. i’ll go myself.”

the production team already suspected that she had found an investor to be her sponsor. if song jia sent her to the set, she would have confirmed the rumors.

“alright then. when will you get off work at noon?” song jia looked at his watch and asked.

“i’m not sure. if everything goes smoothly, we can leave before midnight.” lu zhen saw that song jia’s clear eyes seemed to be a little red. she asked uncertainly, “did you rush over overnight?”

song jia nodded lightly. lu zhen immediately felt even more uncomfortable. could it be that he had personally come over today just because she had a conflict with him yesterday?

“are you here because there’s some work here?” lu zhen tried to ask about

other possibilities.

song jia looked up at the uneasy lu zhen. “no.”

lu zhen fell silent. oh no, did he really come here for her? “then did you not sleep well last night? this is my room. why don’t you go in and rest for a

while?” in her panic, lu zhen did not think before she spoke.

she only wanted to end their awkward conversation quickly, but she did not expect that she was inviting her boss to sleep in her room!

lu zhen immediately wanted to bite her tongue and commit suicide. was she still asleep? she actually said such stupid things!

what surprised lu zhen even more was that after song jia was surprised, he seemed to really think that this suggestion was not bad. he extended his palm. “alright, i’ll rest here for a while. come and find me after you get off work.”

lu zhen looked at song jia’s clear palm and was confused for a moment before she reacted. she stiffly handed the room card to song jia. “then i’ll get going.

call me if anything happens.”

“yes, go ahead.” song jia took the room card and opened the door. before the door closed, he said to lu zhen, who was standing outside, “see you at noon.”

the door closed and lu zhen stood outside in a daze. after a few seconds, she slowly turned around and walked towards the stairwell.

after pressing the button to go downstairs, lu zhen thought of something and hurriedly called xiaoxiao. after the call went through, lu zhen asked xiaoxiao helplessly, “xiaoxiao, why did you tell song jia that i was sick?”

“he asked, i answered. he’s my boss after all.” after saying that, xiaoxiao smiled ambiguously. “sister zhenzhen, i think president song really cares about you. indeed, no man can resist your charm!”

lu zhen held her forehead and took a deep breath. “thanks to you, he came in the morning. he was at the door of my room!”

on the phone, xiaoxiao gasped in shock and then said ecstatically, “oh my god, isn’t president song too straight? he came to apologize to you personally?” “apologize? why would he apologize to me?” lu zhen was confused.

“didn’t the two of you quarrel? he even asked me yesterday if you looked unhappy. at that time, i asked casually. although he didn’t say it directly, i guessed that the two of you must have had a conflict) right? so, did he come personally today to apologize to you?

“how is that possible? he’s my boss. is there a need for him to apologize to me?” lu zhen sighed and sighed. “looks like the two of you have talked a lot in

private.. don’t tell me you’ve revealed everything about me to him!”
