"Okay."

"Go back and tell the company that in the future, we can compete for the project of 'my father's friend.' There's no need to show mercy anymore."

The secretary was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and agreed.

Her voice was calm, giving off a feeling of brushing off her sleeves.

This also indicated that this person was very clever, adept at saving face, and more ruthless than anyone else. Gu Siyu felt that Huo Junxuan was scrutinizing her.

Gu Siyu felt a bit guilty. She didn't know if this banquet was arranged by her friend Ye Qinghe to help distract Huo Junxuan.

Her throat tightened, and she pretended she hadn't heard anything.

"Miss Huo?" the secretary asked, "Should I go back now? I'll come to pick you up the day after tomorrow."

It took several calls before she came back to her senses.

Huo Junxuan looked at Gu Siyu and shook her head. "Well, it's okay. You can go."

While the secretary went to arrange the itinerary, a few people came into the room to deliver clothes. They placed all the clothes on the sofa for them to choose. Huo Junxuan compared the clothes and asked Gu Siyu, who was playing with her phone, "Which one do you think looks good?"

"Have you been bored at home all this time? Do you want to go out for a walk?"

She sighed while trying on clothes. "I always feel like there's a conspiracy, not sure if I should go."

"What's the rush? It's not today anyway," Gu Siyu said with little interest, not wanting to look at the clothes.

Because Chen Tao had disappeared recently, not coming their way, the whole house had only Gu Siyu and Huo Junxuan.

Of course, Huo Junxuan didn't feel bored. When Gu Siyu sat on the sofa, she would come over and hug her. When Gu Siyu took a nap on the bed, Huo Junxuan would encircle her waist. The two of them were always close to each other.

As spring arrived and everything revived, those thoughts couldn't be concealed.

After finishing the matter, the two lay in bed talking. Gu Siyu asked about her condition, wanting to know if the pain of Teddy leaving would make her look sick.

"Are you feeling better now?" Gu Siyu asked.

Huo Junxuan smiled and looked at her. "Not much. I still feel it."

Gu Siyu glanced at her and didn't say anything. The fact that she could make jokes meant she was getting better.

Huo Junxuan turned over and hugged Gu Siyu, lowering her head to kiss her fingers.

Gu Siyu kissed her chin, and Huo Junxuan seemed a bit surprised by Gu Siyu's kiss. She hesitated for a moment, but her quick response allowed her to return the kiss promptly.

The more intimate they became, the deeper they fell, forgetting many fundamental questions and losing track of what they were doing.

Gu Siyu asked again, "Are you feeling better now?"

Huo Junxuan said, "Much better." She looked at her with intense eyes, and Gu Siyu was stimulated by her gaze, quickly closing her eyes.

...

Late at night, it was very late.

Huo Junxuan got up to tuck in Gu Siyu's stomach with the blanket. She answered a phone call, speaking softly, "Did you find out?"
