A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

"Boss lady, wait a minute!"

After saying that, Xia Ning took off running.

She rummaged through a bag next to her and pulled out a pile of materials, quickly arranging them in a row.

I have to show my skills to the boss today!

Li Xixue frowned as she watched her busy figure, but did not stop her.

That girl is very quick.

The movements were skillful, but a bit clumsy.

It might be because I was a little nervous.

Li Xixue also noticed that the rabbit hair clip on the girl's head was crooked.

To be honest, she has never encountered this type of person in her life.

Like Xia Ning...

Well, how should I put it?

Clean.

Moreover, that ingratiation wasn't deliberate; it was natural.

"alright!"

Xia Ning ran over with a cup of milk tea and handed it to Li Xixue with both hands.

The cup is disposable and has a crookedly drawn rabbit on it.

It was drawn by Xia Ning herself.

"Boss lady, please try this! This is my own recipe, and it's not officially on the shelves yet! You're our first customer!"

Li Xixue took it and glanced at the poorly drawn rabbit on the cup.

Although it's worrying, it seems like they put a lot of effort into it.

Her lips twitched slightly, and then she took a gentle sniff.

Seeing this, Xia Ning clenched her hands together, staring at Li Xixue's expression, not daring to breathe.

She wondered if the landlady would find it objectionable...

What should I do if I don't like it?

Li Xixue took a small sip of her milk tea.

It tastes good.

The sweetness is just right.

"Mmm, it tastes good."

As those words fell.

Xia Ning's eyes lit up immediately.

"Really!"

"The proprietress actually thinks it tastes good!"

Li Xixue hummed in agreement.

Xia Ning jumped up, then suddenly realized she had lost her composure, quickly regained her composure, and stood up straight.

But the smile on her face couldn't be suppressed.

This means that I have successfully gained the boss's approval!

Lu Yang watched this scene from the side and breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he was a little worried that it would be awkward if the two sides met.

After all, Li Xixue is always cold in front of outsiders.

But now it seems that Xia Ning's personality is naturally able to defuse this coldness.

"Boss lady, if you like it, I'll make it for you every day from now on!"

Xia Ning rubbed her hands together, her eyes full of anticipation.

"No need for every day."

Li Xixue took a second sip, and it was indeed quite good.

"Then the next day?"

"...Actually, it's not necessary."

"Then two days later."

"..."

Li Xixue paused slightly.

In her old circle, those who could stay around her all had some ulterior motives.

They either want to build connections, they want resources, or they want benefits.

But Xia Ning is different.

Not only are they naive, but they're also a bit silly.

"Alright."

Li Xixue finally relented: "Occasionally is fine."

Xia Ning was quite excited and said with a smile, "So, what flavor do you like, boss lady? Sweet? Or refreshing? I'll write it all down!"

"……random."

"Then I'll make you a special flavor! Just for you! No one else will get one!"

Lu Yang found it quite amusing to watch Xia Ning circling around Li Xixue.

He still remembered what Mr. Li's attitude was like when he was in the car earlier.

What now?

Someone won you over with just a cup of milk tea.

Lu Yang didn't say anything, but his eyes were smiling.

Li Xixue glanced at him and roughly guessed what he was thinking.

She ignored her.

At this moment, Xia Qing walked over.

"Boss, I've already contacted the construction team, and they can start work tomorrow."

Lu Yang nodded: "What about the materials?"

"The supplier has confirmed the list Xia Ning made, and it will arrive the day after tomorrow."

"OK."

Xia Qing paused for a moment, then glanced at Li Xixue.

She didn't speak, she just nodded.

Li Xixue nodded in return.

Perhaps because they are similar people, the way the two of them communicate is so clean and efficient.

Xia Ning, watching from the side, muttered, "My sister and the boss's wife seem to get along quite well."

Lu Yang glanced at Xia Qing, then at Li Xixue.

Xia Ning chuckled twice, then leaned closer and lowered her voice, "Boss lady, can I ask you a question?"

Li Xixue glanced at her.

Xia Ning was very nervous, but she still asked the question.

How did you meet the boss?

These words were spoken.

Li Xixue and Lu Yang almost choked.

After Xia Ning finished asking the question, she blinked her eyes, looking very curious.

Li Xixue stopped holding the milk tea.

This is the problem.

How should I answer?

They themselves found it difficult to explain how they met.

And they even got their marriage certificate on the very first day they met.

Lu Yang coughed lightly, quickly interrupting.

"That's a long story, we'll talk about it later."

Xia Ning gave an "oh," but she was clearly not giving up, her eyes darting back and forth between Lu Yang and Li Xixue.

I'm very curious, but I'll have to ask later.

"Okay, that's enough for today."

Lu Yang clapped his hands: "The construction team will be on site tomorrow. Xia Qing, you keep an eye on things. Contact me anytime if there are any problems."

Xia Qing made her choice.

Xia Ning stood at attention beside her, looking pleased: "Boss, I'll revise the plan and send it to you tomorrow!"

Lu Yang hummed in agreement.

Then he glanced at Li Xixue.

Li Xixue was already walking towards the door, still holding the cup of milk tea in her hand. She took a few steps and then took another sip.

Xia Ning was overjoyed when she saw this.

The proprietress drank so much.

That means it really tastes good!

"Goodbye, boss lady! I'll make you a new flavor next time you come!"

Xia Ning shouted at Li Xixue's retreating figure.

Lu Yang followed the direction Li Xixue had gone.

Li Xixue stopped and turned around.

Lu Yang walked up to her and said directly, "I still need to go over the new product formula with Xia Ning later, so I might be back a little late."

Li Xixue glanced at him.

"OK."

Just one word.

Lu Yang was stunned.

He originally thought that Li Xixue would ask a few more questions, or at least say something like "What time will you be back?"

There was nothing.

This isn't right.

She wasn't like this before.

Lu Yang couldn't help but speak up.

"You trust me that much?"

Li Xixue turned her head to the side, then looked past his shoulder and onto Xia Ning behind him.

At that moment, Xia Ning was squatting on the ground, stuffing the pile of ingredients for making milk tea into a bag.

Halfway through stuffing it in, the bag tipped over, and the contents rolled all over the floor.

She frantically picked them up, muttering something under her breath.

The rabbit hair clip on her head was tilted even more crooked.

Li Xixue looked away and pursed her lips.

"She...is very cute."

Lu Yang: "..."

What does that mean?

Li Xixue did not explain.

She opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.

Lu Yang knocked on the car window: "No, you're leaving already?"

"Otherwise?" Li Xixue retorted.

Lu Yang quickly said, "But... I might get a fever later."

Li Xixue simply replied, "Oh."
