when she returned, she left rhythm in mary’s hands.

in the past, mary was the acting person-in-charge. now, she was fully in charge. after experiencing so much, yin xun believed in her strength.

keeping mary as an assistant would not train her ability, and yin xun was really lacking a capable manager now. mary was the best candidate.

“president yin, i won’t disappoint you!” mary’s eyes were red as she promised yin xun.

soon, it was time to get off work. yin xun left the company and planned to buy some fruits so that she could continue to freeload at fang yao’s house. it was just time to get off work, and many employees were not out yet. they would usually leave a few minutes later.

“president yin!” yin xun had just walked out of the door when a person suddenly dashed out from the side, scaring her.

when she saw the other party’s face clearly, yin xun said in surprise, “liu cheng?”

at this moment, liu cheng was holding a bouquet of flowers in his arms. yin xun immediately understood what he was here for.

“i’m sorry. i must have frightened you.” liu cheng scratched his head in embarrassment.

yin xun frowned slightly and asked, “what’s the matter?”

“this is for you. would you care for a cup of coffee with me?” liu cheng smiled and said, “i’ve been waiting for you outside for a long time.”

“if you have something to say, say it here. i have something to do later and i’m in a hurry,” yin xun said as she looked at her phone.

liu cheng handed the flowers to yin xun. his face was slightly red as he said shyly, “i’ve liked you since a long time ago. i’ve always wanted to ask you out, but i didn’t have the chance. you’re an outstanding person. i feel that if 1 don’t take action soon, i’ll lose you. so…”

liu cheng straightened his expression and looked at yin xun expectantly.

“would you be my girlfriend?”

yin xun looked at liu cheng and then looked up at her surroundings. why was this scene so familiar? it was exactly the same as xing cheng back then.

looking at liu cheng, she seemed to see xing cheng’s shadow on him. yin xun felt a chill in her heart.

“i’m sorry, mr. liu. i can’t, so please go back.” yin xun rejected him with a smile and left.

liu cheng did not chase after her. he stood on the spot and looked at yin xun’s back with a gloomy gaze. he only turned around and left when yin xun’s figure disappeared.

soon, yin xun drove out of the parking lot, followed by a black car by the roadside.

after yin xun left the company, she passed by a fruit shop and went down to buy some fruits. then, she hurried over to fang yao’s house.

previously, she felt embarrassed about freeloading, but now, she no longer had such thoughts. anyway, she just needed to bring some gifts for fang yao.

when she arrived at fang yao’s house, she was surprised to see qu lu there as well.

her eyes were red and bloodshot, as though she had been wronged. she stood alone in the living room of the villa.

yin xun stood at the door with fruits in her hands, unsure if she should go in.

the butler saw her and greeted her warmly. “miss yin, why are you standing at the door? why aren’t you coming in?”

qu lu turned around and their gazes met. yin xun could clearly sense the killing intent in qu lu’s eyes. yin xun revealed a harmless smile.

qu lu snorted and turned his head away.

the butler laughed as he took yin xun’s fruits and asked yin xun, “miss yin, 1 learned a new skill yesterday. i made some fruit pie. do you want to try it?”

“i do. since you’ve just learned this, i’ll be sure to give it a taste,” yin xun said expectantly.

“is there anything else you’d like to eat, then?” the butler asked.

yin xun thought for a moment and said, “i like fruit shaved ice!”

it was the summer season now, and it was very hot. it was a good time to eat sour, sweet, and cold food.

“alright, alright. i’ll make some for you now,” the butler said happily. he then turned to qu lu and asked, “miss qu lu, do you want to eat something?”

qu lu glanced in the direction of the second floor and shook her head. with a choked voice, she said, “thank you, uncle butler. i won’t be eating. i’ve already finished my business. i’ll be leaving.”

“take care then.” the butler smiled and asked the servant to send qu lu off. he carried the fruits and went straight to the kitchen.

as soon as qu lu left, fang yao came down from upstairs. he said to yin xun, “qu lu came over to deliver the money just now. the fee for booking the entire venue.”

yin xun raised her eyebrows. “you’re quite strict with your word.”

“i thought you were going to say that she doesn’t need to pay for this and that you would.” fang yao smiled at yin xun.

yin xun shrugged. “she was the one who wanted to be a sucker. it’s always good when someone save me money. i had no choice but to accept it.”

after saying that, she seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, “well, i’m just talking about her. i don’t mean anything else!”

she had actually thought the same of fang yao.

fang yao,”…”

he felt that he had been insulted indirectly. it would have been better if she had not explained all that. with yin xun’s explanation, it was as if she was saying that he was also a sucker..
