  Si Zhengting looked at his phone and found no unread texts.

  He opened his phone records. There were no unanswered calls as well.

  His brows knitted tightly, and his eyes grew dark. He stood up abruptly, reached for his suit jacket, and announced coldly. “Home.”


  There was a bus stop at the entrance of the Imperial Group.

  Zhuang Nainai was there, checking her phone for the next bus. The next bus 11 would only arrive in another 10 minutes.

  She gave a long sigh and looked at the street lights in front of her in a daze.

  She wondered if she should talk about her dinner with Si Zhengting when she gets home.

  She bit her lips and was in deep thoughts about her dilemma when two strong car beams shone in her face. The brightness made Zhuang Nainai instinctively raise her hands to shield her eyes, and she squinted to see a car drive over from the carpark of the Imperial Group.

  A number of luxurious sedans drove past her.

  They were followed by a large silver Maybach, which stopped right beside her.

  The window to the backseat was wound down to reveal Si Zhengting’s expressionless face.

  His face shone bright under the dim lighting, and Zhuang Nainai caught sight of him right away.

  He demanded coldly, “Get in.”


  Zhuang Nainai’s eyes lit up. She looked back at the office building and asked excitedly, “You just got off work too?”


  Ji Chen, following in the car behind them, shook his head with bewilderment.

  However, he instead saw Si Zhengting give a small nod.

  Zhuang Nainai got into the car, and the car made for the Si residence.

  Zhuang Nainai watched Beijing’s night view pass by through the window for a while. She grew tired and quietly turned to see Si Zhengting sitting upright next to her. Even his side view was breathtakingly beautiful.

  He was flawless from all angles!

  She was preoccupied in her thoughts when he suddenly turned to look out of the window, away from her.

  Zhuang Nainai was lost for words.

  Zhuang Nainai did not notice that Si Zhengting’s ears had turned a little red. A hint of uneasiness also started to creep in his expression.

  Zhuang Nainai deliberated over her dinner today. She mulled over on how to thank him and finally said, “Em…… don’t work too hard all the time, you have to take care of your health.”


  Her remark was followed by a long silence.

  Zhuang Nainai felt her face burn up in embarrassment.

  His lack of response made her feel like she’d said something stupid.

  She decided not to talk to him anymore.

  She just vowed to herself to never speak another word when he asked coldly, “How’s your first day of work?”


  Zhuang Nainai froze. Was he showing concern towards her?

  She felt a thrill and was about to reply when Si Zhengting added, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m just concerned for the company’s employees.”


  Zhuang Nainai was lost for words.

  Was she imagining things again?

  Her excitement vanished instantly.

  But, why did he have to add that explanation?

  Looking at his back resolutely turned towards her, Zhuang Nainai clenched her fists. She fought the growing anxiety and agitation within her and blurted out, “So is the dinner without ginger your idea of showing concern to your employees too?”
