The flirtatious girl is done flirting; Mr. He is now obsessed with her.

Seeing this, He Wanqing couldn't help but smile like an aunt, and protested loudly and exaggeratedly, "Hey Uncle, can you be a little more considerate? I'm still here! If you want to show off your love, go back to your room!"

He Yun Shen seemed not to hear her words, and just focused on looking at Bai Yi Shu, and handed the grapes forward again.

"Come on, open your mouth."

He caught a glimpse of He Wanqing's expression out of the corner of his eye, but didn't care at all. Instead, he became even more insistent on getting closer to Bai Yishu.

Bai Yishu glanced at He Wanqing, then stiffly ate the grape, the sweet juice spreading in her mouth.

"Is it sweet?"

Before she could answer, He Yun Shen suddenly turned to the side and lightly pecked her lips, tasting a faint fruity fragrance.

"Yes, it is indeed very sweet."

Bai Yishu was startled by his sudden kiss, and her face instantly turned bright red.

"That's enough, Uncle!"

He Wanqing covered her eyes with both hands and screamed exaggeratedly.

"I haven't finished eating yet, how am I supposed to eat like this!"

She laughed as she peeked at them through her fingers.

Bai Yishu lowered her head somewhat awkwardly, then tried to get up and leave, but He Yunshen grabbed her arm.

He swiftly grabbed Bai Yishu's wrist, pulled her back to her seat with a slight effort, and then casually pulled her into his arms.

He Yun Shen rested his chin lightly on her shoulder, raising an eyebrow at He Wan Qing with a hint of provocation.

"Take your time eating, don't worry about us."

What are you doing?

Bai Yishu felt the warmth of his embrace and her whole body stiffened. The servants beside her all consciously looked away.

He Yun Shen lowered his head and rubbed his face against her neck, deliberately ignoring the presence of He Wan Qing beside him.

"What, I can't even hug the person I like?"

As he spoke, he deliberately tightened his grip on her, holding her close in his arms.

"you……"

He Yun Shen chuckled softly, finally letting her go, but still keeping his arm around her waist to prevent her from leaving.

He looked up at He Wanqing, his tone returning to its usual indifference.

"Go back to your room after you're done eating, don't get in the way here."

He Wanqing pursed her lips, made a face on purpose, picked up the plate on the table and stood up.

"Tch, fine! I'm leaving, you guys continue."

He Yun Shen only released her after He Wanqing's figure disappeared at the top of the stairs, but still kept a close distance between them.

"Now no one's bothering us..."

Bai Yishu glanced at him, frowned, and asked, "What act were you putting on just now?"

He Yun Shen curled the corners of his lips, his fingertips slowly twirling her hair, his eyes suddenly becoming serious.

"Yi Shu, which line of mine do you think was acting? 'I want to hug you, I want to kiss you,' were those fake?"

Bai Yishu's heart started racing again. She quickly stood up from the sofa, trying to hide her embarrassment.

"I have to go now."

Seeing that she was about to leave, He Yun Shen reached out and grabbed her, pulling her back and pinning her against the edge of the dining table. He then braced his hands on either side of her, confining her within his own space.

Did I say you could leave?

Bai Yishu pressed her hands against his chest, but she couldn't stop his body from getting closer and closer.

"Bai Yishu, have you forgotten that you are now in the He family's house, on my territory?"

He Yun Shen leaned forward slowly, almost touching her.

Bai Yishu was on the verge of tears, so she could only lean back in a strange posture.

"What are you hiding from?"

He Yun Shen leaned forward with her, giving her no room to escape.

"I...I really have to go back. I have a lot of things to do at the company today."

Bai Yishu casually made up an excuse, but she didn't expect He Yun Shen to actually let go of her.

"I'll have the driver take you."

He straightened up, but still stood in front of her.

"Come over for dinner tonight, I'll be waiting for you."

Bai Yishu was a little confused by his sudden remark.

"Eat? What kind of food?"

He Yun Shen smiled and looked down, seemingly satisfied with her reaction.

"Ordinary home-cooked meal."

He straightened up, took out his phone from his pocket, and tapped the screen a few times.

"Or, Miss Bai, would you like something special? I'll have the chef prepare it now."

Bai Yishu quickly shook her head.

"Then it's settled."

He Yun Shen put away his phone, took a half step back, and turned to make way for her.

"I want to see you at seven o'clock tonight."

Seeing that he had moved aside, Bai Yishu did not linger for a moment, got into her car, and left the He family home.

She went straight to the company, found the document regarding the investment from the He family to the Bai family, and began to look through it.

The document was very long, with densely packed clauses that made one's head spin.

She skipped the tedious details of the cooperation and went straight to the last page, the equity structure table.

Before the White family encountered the crisis, she held 25% of the shares, which is now clearly marked as: 12.5%.

Next to it was He Yun Shen's name, followed by the glaring number: 51%.

The father's shares were diluted to 30%, and the other minority shareholders combined only had 6.5%.

These few lines of text, however, were like a sharpened dagger, piercing deeply into Bai Yishu's heart.

She leaned back in her office chair, enveloped by a deep sense of powerlessness, yet feeling utterly helpless.

As night fell, Bai Yishu arrived at the He family's house as promised.

He Yun Shen sat on the living room sofa. Hearing footsteps at the door, he slowly looked up, secretly pleased, but only spoke softly.

"They're here."

He got up and walked up to Bai Yishu, looking her up and down.

"Pretty punctual."

Bai Yishu pursed her lips, her gaze towards him somewhat complicated.

He Yun Shen's gaze lingered on her for a moment, then he turned and walked towards the restaurant.

"Let's go to the restaurant; the chef has already prepared the food."

He walked to the dining table, stopped, turned back to look at her, and pointed to the seat next to him.

Bai Yishu sat down in the seat he designated, while He Yunshen sat down beside her, gracefully unfolding his napkin and glancing at the dishes on the table.

"These are all your favorite foods, have a taste."

As she spoke, she picked up the serving chopsticks and placed a piece of Bai Yishu's favorite dish into her bowl.

Bai Yishu picked up her chopsticks, took a bite, and glanced at the large dining table before asking, "Is it just the two of us eating?"

He Yun Shen paused slightly, looked up at her, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"What, who else would you like to see?"

He put down the serving chopsticks, picked up his water glass and took a sip, but his gaze remained fixed on her.

"Wan Qing is not home tonight."

"Where's Grandma?"

"Grandma went to visit an old friend and won't be back for the next couple of days."

He Yun Shen turned to look at her, his eyes darkening.

So, it's just the two of us tonight.

Bai Yishu stopped talking and began to focus on eating.

He Yun Shen also began to eat, his movements elegant and composed. He would occasionally add food and pour water for her, his gaze always seemingly lingering on her.

A moment later, he suddenly put down his chopsticks, picked up a napkin, and elegantly wiped his mouth.

"Yi Shu, I have something to ask you."

Bai Yishu paused in her eating, but didn't look up at him.

"What?"

He Yun Shen leaned forward and placed his hands crossed on the dining table.

"you……"

He paused slightly, as if he was carefully choosing his words.

Have you thought about our relationship?
