After saying this, Fu Xiu said no more. He walked out of the lounge, leaving Bai Yishu alone.

Although Bai Yishu had long realized that he was not someone to be trifled with, she never expected that incident would bring trouble upon herself.

If He Yun Shen knew about her past with Fu Xiu, I wonder what he would think.

Bai Yishu looked at the business card in her hand, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can next to her.

She walked out of the lounge and found He Yun Shen in the crowd.

"Why did it take you so long?"

Bai Yishu met He Yunshen's probing gaze and forced a smile.

"I was a little tired, so I rested a bit longer."

He Yun Shen stared at her for a few seconds, as if trying to determine the truthfulness of her words.

"Would you like to go outside for some fresh air?"

Bai Yishu shook her head and looked at him with a tired expression.

"I want to go back."

"Now?"

He Yun Shen looked somewhat surprised, but still nodded in understanding and put his arm around hers.

"Alright, I'll go say hello, then we'll leave."

Bai Yishu and He Yunshen walked out of the venue. The cold wind outside could not dispel the sorrow in her heart.

After He Yun Shen got into the car, he instructed the driver to start the car. Bai Yi Shu rested her head against the car window, and a subtle silence fell over the car.

He Yun Shen stared at the fleeting night view outside the window, and after a few minutes he finally couldn't help but turn his head to look at her.

"Yi Shu..."

He started to speak but then paused, organizing his thoughts before continuing softly, "If there's anything, you can tell me."

Bai Yishu smiled at him, then immediately turned to look out the window, not wanting him to see the unease in her eyes.

"Yes, I'm fine."

"Okay, it's good that you're alright."

He Yun Shen was clearly suspicious of her words, but he did not point out her meaning.

He stared at her for a long time, his eyes darkening, and his fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the back seat.

The car stopped in front of the Bai family's house. He Yun Shen opened his eyes and his gaze lingered on Bai Yi Shu's face for a moment.

"We're here, let's go in."

His eyes seemed to hold a thousand words, but in the end, they all turned into a single admonition.

"Get a good rest tonight."

After taking a shower, Bai Yishu lay in bed thinking for a long time before deciding to put Fu Xiu's words out of her mind.

If he comes to her again, she will make things clear to his face.

Anyway, she loves He Yun Shen, and that will never change.

The next day, Bai Yishu adjusted her mindset and went to work, only to see He Yunshen's car waiting for her outside.

She was somewhat surprised that He Yun Shen would come to pick her up for work this morning, and she jogged over and got into the car.

Once Bai Yishu was seated, He Yunshen naturally put his arm around her shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Did you sleep well last night? Did you dream about me?"

Yes.

Bai Yishu leaned against He Yunshen, nuzzling her head against his neck and greedily inhaling his scent.

"Oh? What did you dream about me about?"

Bai Yishu covered her mouth and teased him, saying, "This is not suitable for children, you can't say it."

He Yun Shen chuckled softly, raised his finger and lightly touched her lower lip, his voice deep and ambiguous.

"Heh, you little rascal, what can't you say in front of me?"

Bai Yishu moved closer to him, whispering in his ear while observing his reaction.

He Yun Shen coughed lightly upon hearing her words, his ear tips flushed red, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on her hand.

"Nonsense."

He took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in his eyes, but a smile remained on his lips.

Upon arriving at the company, He Yun Shen subtly adjusted his attire and walked into the company side by side with Bai Yi Shu.

There was a meeting to attend this morning, so the two of them went straight into the meeting room, and Bai Yishu sat down next to him.

After the meeting began, Bai Yishu listened to the reports from the heads of various departments while taking notes in her notebook, occasionally glancing at He Yunshen.

"The luxury hotel market is nearing saturation; what we need to consider is how to stand out from the competition."

After He Yun Shen finished speaking, his gaze swept over everyone and finally landed on Bai Yi Shu.

"Yi Shu, what do you think?"

Bai Yishu didn't expect He Yunshen to suddenly ask her this question. She looked up at the slides on the wall, which were about the positioning of He's new hotel project.

She pondered for a moment, then said under everyone's gaze, "I think we could try a mid-range business hotel."

A hint of interest flashed in He Yun Shen's eyes, signaling her to continue.

"Tell me more about it."

"This place is not too far from the airport and train station, and there are shopping areas and subway stations nearby, making it suitable for people who travel for business or leisure."

"Yes, the location advantage is indeed obvious."

He Yun Shen rested his chin on one hand, lowered his eyes to think for a moment, then looked up and scanned the projected land plot.

"Anything else? From a cost and revenue perspective, can the return on investment for mid-range business hotels meet our expectations?"

Bai Yishu was using a laser pointer to draw on a two-dimensional diagram.

"This area offers great value for money, allowing us to create a distinctive hotel at a relatively low cost."

She continued, "In addition, we can reduce the room size, increase the number of rooms, and then add consumption areas in the public areas to encourage customers to spend money."

"That's interesting."

He Yun Shen's lips curled slightly, and he lightly tapped the table with his pen.

"Reduce room size while maintaining comfort, and increase entertainment and consumption space in public areas. This reduces unit costs and increases overall revenue through diversified consumption."

He Yun Shen nodded and turned to the marketing manager.

"Conduct a detailed cost-benefit analysis and report it at next week's meeting."

He Yun Shen's gaze returned to Bai Yi Shu, still carrying a hint of pride.

Bai Yishu pretended to make eye contact with him casually for a second, then immediately looked at the computer in front of her with a serious expression.

After the meeting ended, everyone left one after another. When only the two of them remained in the conference room, He Yun Shen gently took Bai Yi Shu's hand, his eyes filled with a smile.

"Well done, my assistant."

Bai Yishu raised an eyebrow at him.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. He."

He Yun Shen stood up, placed his hands on the armrests of the chair she was sitting on, and slowly lowered his head to approach her.

"Now I want to reward you as your boyfriend."

Seeing that he was about to get close, Bai Yishu quickly grabbed his shoulder.

"This is inside the company."

He Yun Shen stopped in front of her and chuckled softly.

"Okay, let's go back to the office first."

Bai Yishu followed him toward the office area and returned to her workstation.

She had barely sat down when her phone suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

Bai Yishu picked up her phone and walked to the tea room. A male voice came from the other end of the line.

"Ms. Bai, I hope I haven't disturbed your work."

It was Fu Xiu's voice.
