431 Xie Yunzhou Likes Her
So, did Xie Yunzhou like her?
Shi Xi secretly looked at Xie Yunzhou.
‘I can’t tell!’
Shi Xi’s feelings were complicated.
She wanted to ask directly, but she was afraid that she would be mistaken and be regarded as narcissistic by Xie Yunzhou.
It was so difficult.
Even when she was in Qingshui Restaurant, Shi Xi was still in a dilemma.
Fortunately, Xie Yunzhou was busy with his own things, so Shi Xi was not so constrained.
Just as she was thinking, Shi Xi received a call from her mother.
“Where did you go? Why aren’t you at home?” Mother Shi asked, “Have you recovered from your cold? Are you running outside?”
“Uh, I came out to shop and eat outside.” Shi Xi did not dare to say that she came back from the production team.
When she heard that Shi Xi was going out to shop, Mother Shi thought that she was with Tao Yuxuan, so she reminded, “Remember not to eat spicy food and come back early.”
“Okay.”
However, when Shi Xi arrived at Qingshui Restaurant, she met Shi Xu who came to eat.
Shi Xi: …There’s no need to be so coincidental, right?
Shi Xu and the people he was meeting for business came to eat. When he saw Shi Xi, he asked, “Why aren’t you resting at home?”
Shi Xi said the same thing, “I’m out shopping and having a meal along the way.”
“You’re out shopping with President Xie?” Shi Xu looked at Xie Yunzhou who was beside Shi Xi.
Shi Xi: QAQ
Shi Xi didn’t know what to say.
Xie Yunzhou replied calmly, “Can’t I go shopping with Shi Xi?”
Shi Xu looked at the two of them and smiled as he rubbed Shi Xi’s head. He reminded, “Remember, you’re not allowed to drink.”
Shi Xi immediately nodded. “I won’t drink.”
“Go home early after eating. Be good.” After Shi Xu finished his words, he looked at Xie Yunzhou. “I’ll have to trouble President Xie to send Xi Xi home.”
“I will.” Xie Yunzhou nodded slightly.
Shi Xi wanted to ask Shi Xu, ‘Brother, don’t you feel that something is wrong?!’
‘Your sister is eating with another man outside!!’
‘This is very likely a date!!’
‘Aren’t you worried?!’
However, Shi Xu couldn’t hear Shi Xi’s thoughts and had already entered the private room.
Because Shi Xi had a cold and her throat wasn’t feeling well, the two of them had a light dinner.
Shi Xi was in a daze as she ate, thinking about her relationship with Xie Yunzhou.
They used to get along very naturally.
Why did she suddenly feel that it wasn’t so natural?
“Are you not feeling well?” Xie Yunzhou saw that Shi Xi didn’t have any appetite, so his big hand landed on Shi Xi’s forehead. “You don’t have a fever. Why don’t you have an appetite?”
Shi Xi blurted out, “Do you have someone you like?”
Xie Yunzhou retracted his hand and his eyes were indifferent. “Why are you asking this?”
“It’s nothing. I’m just asking.” Shi Xi did not receive a reply and lowered her head to continue eating.
She shouldn’t have asked!
The best thing to do now was to quickly eat dinner and go home to have a good night’s sleep.
Keep a distance from Xie Yunzhou in the future!
Seeing that the girl had lost her appetite just now and was now engrossed in eating, looking as if she had seen the light, Xie Yunzhou sighed in his heart.
He wanted to take things slow with Shi Xi. He wanted to start as a friend and slowly develop their relationship.
He would confess to Shi Xi when she was a little older.
But now, it seemed that after Shi Xi knew of his intentions, she only wanted to retreat.
She really was a little troublemaker.
..
After eating, Shi Xi had already regained her composure.
She was so beautiful and smart. It was very normal for a man to like her.
There was no need to panic.
“Thank you for the wedding dress. If there’s anything I can help you with in the future, I will definitely do it.” The girl’s eyes were curved and bright like the stars.
Xie Yunzhou’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He said in a low voice, “There’s something I need your help with right now.”

432 Why Did You Suddenly Confess!!!
Shi Xi looked up at him. “What’s the matter? If it’s about endorsements, I’ll talk to Brother Han and lower the price to the lowest possible.”
Xie Yunzhou’s eyes were deep. “I’ve opened a new amusement park in Pingle District. I want to bring you to take a look.”
Shi Xi thought for a moment and said, “The amusement park’s promotional ambassador? That sounds pretty good.”
“I’ll take you there to take a look.” Xie Yunzhou asked his assistant to change the direction and went to the amusement park.
“You can wait for the day. I can’t see it clearly at night,” Shi Xi said.
“There’s a fireworks show at night,” Xie Yunzhou said calmly.
Shi Xi looked at Xie Yunzhou in surprise and then asked, “Have you got the qualification to set off fireworks?”
It was forbidden to set off fireworks in Feng City.
Leng Qiankun had been arrested for setting off fireworks in the past.
Shi Xi kept this rule in mind.
She didn’t want to be arrested for no reason!
Especially since she was a female celebrity now.
Xie Yunzhou: “…I’ve already applied for the right to set off fireworks.”
The fun of chatting with Shi Xi was that you never knew what she would say next.
Shi Xi asked again, “Then from now on, you can set off fireworks at the amusement park every night? Will there be an amusement park? Similar to Disney?”
Xie Yunzhou said, “It will be linked to a few anime IP addresses.”
Shi Xi had originally thought that the amusement park Xie Yunzhou was talking about was a childish, cute, and boring children’s amusement park.
However, when she reached the front door, Shi Xi knew that she was wrong.
Just the huge and luxurious front door in front of her couldn’t possibly be just an ordinary amusement park!
The sky was already dark, and the lights in the amusement park were flickering. It was different from the romantic day.
Under the dim sky, it was even more mysterious and ambiguous.
Shi Xi looked out of the car window and said, “This amusement park is very big.”
“The amusement park covers an area of more than 500,000 square meters. There are three different theme parks,” Xie Yunzhou said. “If you want to play, pick a day to play.”
Shi Xi smiled faintly and said, “After the park opens, Tao Tao and I will play together.”
She couldn’t go out alone with Xie Yunzhou anymore!
After the car entered the amusement park, it continued to move forward.
Shi Xi asked, “Where are we going?”
“The Dream Castle.”
“…”
It sounded like a very childish place.
However, this amusement park was really beautiful! There were many facilities that she wanted to try out.
After the park opened, she would definitely come and have a good time!
Seeing the girl’s bright eyes looking at the paradise outside the car window, Xie Yunzhou’s lips curled up slightly.
He knew that Shi Xi would like it.
He understood the little girl’s thoughts clearly.
Finally, the car stopped in front of a towering and gorgeous castle.
Shi Xi got down from the car, her eyes shining. “It really looks like a fairy tale! As expected of a Dream Castle.”
The Dream Castle in front of her was gorgeous and straight, towering into the clouds.
If it had been during the day, it would have been even more beautiful!
Shi Xi held back the thought of taking a photo.
She would do it again the next time she came!
Xiu–
Not far away, a cluster of fireworks rose into the sky and shattered at the highest point.
The beautiful purple fireworks were mysterious and enchanting.
Then, the colorful fireworks exploded, forming all kinds of shapes.
Shi Xi stared at them intently.
“Shi Xi.”
Xie Yunzhou called her name from behind.
Shi Xi turned around and saw Xie Yunzhou holding a bouquet of champagne roses.
The surrounding lights were flickering, looking dreamy and romantic.
Shi Xi’s heart began to beat faster.
Xie Yunzhou looked at Shi Xi and said, “Shi Xi, I’ve always wanted to wait for you to grow up, so we can be together.”
Shi Xi: Then why don’t you wait! Continue to wait!!
Why confess all of a sudden!!!

433 Boss Is Finally Not Single!!
“I wanted to wait for you to grow up, but I was afraid that you would leave.” Xie Yunzhou stared into the girl’s eyes and said solemnly, “So I wanted to use marriage as my goal to ask you to date me.”
Shi Xi subconsciously took a step back. “I, I…”
Anyone who suddenly heard the word ‘marriage’ would be confused.
Xie Yunzhou said what he had always wanted to say. His heart suddenly relaxed and a smile appeared on his face. “It doesn’t matter. You can take your time to consider it.”
Seeing the smile on Xie Yunzhou’s face, Shi Xi did not feel relaxed at all.
She only felt that she was being threatened.
Could she refuse?
The fireworks were still blooming.
Under the Dream Castle, rows of small lights were flashing.
Shi Xi’s heart was in a mess.
Her mind was also in a mess.
Was being with Xie Yunzhou the best solution for her to survive in this world?
Probably.
Xie Yunzhou was the biggest villain in the book. If she was really with him, she probably wouldn’t have to worry about her little life.
But…
What other buts were there?
Shi Xi looked up and met Xie Yunzhou’s eyes.
Love burned like fire, like fireworks.
But when it burned out, only ashes fell.
Shi Xi’s heart slowly calmed down.
“I’m sorry.”
Shi Xi heard herself reject Xie Yunzhou word by word.
“Thank you for your appreciation and love for me. At this stage, I don’t have any plans to fall in love or even get married. If it’s possible, I hope we can still be friends.”
The sound of fireworks could be heard in the distance, but Xie Yunzhou could still hear Shi Xi’s voice clearly.
The girl’s voice was clear and shallow, like the cold spring water.
But the words she said were not as pleasant to the ear.
..
Not far away, Xie Yunzhou’s assistant looked at the two from afar, feeling anxious.
Were they really together?!
He couldn’t hear anything, so anxious!
What was she saying?
Could she speak a little louder?
..
Xie Yunzhou lowered his eyes and said with a faint smile, “Take the flowers.”
Shi Xi was stunned. “I, I rejected you.”
Xie Yunzhou said, “I knew that you might reject me.”
He just didn’t expect that the rejection would be so straightforward.
“Oh?” Shi Xi didn’t understand.
“The reason you rejected me is because you don’t have any thoughts of falling in love at this stage.” Xie Yunzhou moved closer and said in a low voice, “I can wait. When you want to fall in love, I can be your number one candidate.”
Shi Xi widened her eyes in surprise. “You can do that?”
Xie Yunzhou asked, “Can I?”
Shi Xi said, “What if you don’t like me then?”
“So, you do like me a little. Are you already considering being together with me in the future?” Xie Yunzhou caught the loophole in Shi Xi’s words.
“!!!”
Shi Xi did not expect Xie Yunzhou to ask her this.
After calming down, the girl’s eyes were clear. “I don’t deny that I have a good impression of you.”
Xie Yunzhou had wanted to ask why they could not be together since she had a good impression of him.
However, he was afraid of startling the girl, so he could only take a step back. “Take the flowers.”
Shi Xi took the flowers and said warily, “Let me say this first. Just because I accept the flowers does not mean that I accept your confession.”
Xie Yunzhou nodded and asked, “Can you give me a hug?”
While Shi Xi was hesitating, she was gently hugged along with the flowers.
With a large bouquet of flowers in the middle, this hug was actually not very intimate.
Therefore, the deep feelings and love that were suppressed, as well as the unspeakable love, were all put into this shallow hug.
Xie Yunzhou gave Shi Xi a gentle hug and then released her. “Let’s go. I’ll send you home.”
“…Okay.”
The assistant saw that Shi Xi had received the flowers. The two of them hugged each other and almost jumped up in joy.
The boss was finally not single!!
~
434 Who Sent the Flowers?
He had nothing to do with his boss being single.
However, his boss would be happy when he was not single, and his job would be very smooth.
The promotion and salary increase was right in front of his eyes!
Although he didn’t get a kiss, it wasn’t a big deal.
As long as they were together!
..
After Shi Xi and Xie Yunzhou’s failed confession, they didn’t feel awkward at all and got along as usual.
Xie Yunzhou sent Shi Xi back to the Shi family home.
After Shi Xi got out of the car, the assistant could not help but congratulate him, “Congratulations, President Xie, for bringing back a beauty!”
The smile on Xie Yunzhou’s face disappeared, and his expression was cold and indifferent. “She didn’t agree.”
The assistant: ?!?
Xie Yunzhou was gentle and considerate in front of Shi Xi, but in front of his subordinates, there was no need for him to put on such an act. “Tomorrow morning, place the Xin’an Technology acquisition proposal on my desk.”
Wasn’t that for next week?!
The assistant did not dare to resist. “Alright, President Xie.”
He would have to stay up all night again when he went back
..
Shi Xi carried the flowers home and met Mother Shi when she entered the house.
Mother Shi asked casually, “Who sent the flowers?”
“Ah, this, this is, I…” Shi Xi could not explain it clearly.
“It’s another gift from a fan, right?” Shi Xu sat in the living room and opened his mouth to help Shi Xi out of the predicament.
Shi Xi came back to her senses and nodded. “Yes, it’s pretty, isn’t it?”
“It’s pretty, but it’s not as pretty as Xi Xi.” Mother Shi took the flowers and asked someone to put them in a vase. “What did you buy while shopping?”
“I didn’t buy anything. I was just looking around.” Shi Xi was afraid that she would make a mistake if she said too much, so she said, “Mom, I’m a little tired. I’m going upstairs to rest first.”
“Take the cold medicine first.”
Shi Xi stuck out her tongue and obediently took the cold medicine. Then, she quickly went upstairs.
When she thought of what she had experienced today, it felt like a dream.
Her phone vibrated. It was a message from Xie Yunzhou. [Are you free tomorrow?]
Tomorrow?
She had to film tomorrow, so she was not free.
Shi Xi asked, [What are you doing?]
If it was just eating, she could spare some time.
Xie Yunzhou: [I’ll take you to the amusement park to play.]
Tonight was just a confession to the amusement park, so she didn’t see many of the tricks in the amusement park.
It was hard for Xie Yunzhou, the CEO of a company, to even think of accompanying her to the amusement park to play.
Shi Xi looked at her schedule and said, [Next week. I might be a little busy in the next few days.]
Xie Yunzhou: [Okay, rest early.]
Shi Xi put away her phone, hummed a song, took a shower, and was ready to go to bed.
Just as she was lying on the bed, ready to go to bed, there was a knock on the door.
It was the same four gentle knocks on the door.
It was Shi Xu.
Her father never came to her room, and her mother called her name while knocking on the door.
Only Shi Xu knocked on the door two times, twice.
“The door isn’t locked. Please come in,” Shi Xi said.
Shi Xu pushed the door open and came in. He looked at Shi Xi, who was sitting on the bed, and asked, “Xie Yunzhou sent you flowers?”
Shi Xi answered vaguely, “Yes.”
“Are you two together?” Shi Xu asked.
“Uh, no.” Shi Xi explained weakly, “We’re just friends.”
“Friends send roses?” Shi Xu raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of oppression in his gentle smile. “Xi Xi, you can’t lie to your brother.”
Shi Xi thought to herself, ‘You just lied in front of our mother!’
Two-faced brother!
Shi Xi had no choice but to tell the truth. “He confessed to me, but I refused.”
Shi Xu paused for a moment, and his smile widened. He reached out to touch Shi Xi’s head and said, “Well said.”
I just dried my hair!
Clean and soft hair!
Don’t touch it!
Shi Xi avoided his hand and said, “I told you, you can’t tell anyone.”
“Definitely not.” Shi Xu looked at his sister and sighed, “In a blink of an eye, Xi Xi has grown up.”

435 Shi Xi Looks Absolutely Beautiful In a Wedding Dress
Shi Xi thanked Xie Yunzhou in her heart for saying that she was still young and that he would wait for her to grow up.
She had let the two of them talk about everything.
Could it be that I can’t decide my own wedding by myself?!
I will always be a beautiful girl!
Shi Xu knew that the two of them weren’t dating, so he felt relieved and said, “Rest early.”
No matter how much he lamented, her younger sister still had to grow up.
When he returned to his room, Shi Xu was still tossing and turning, thinking that his sister was going to get married in the end.
He was sad.
Shi Xi did not think too much about it. When Shi Xu went out, she lay down and fell asleep.
She was too tired.
She had no dreams for the entire night.
..
The production team.
Shi Xi brought the wedding dress that Xie Yunzhou had given her to the set. Everyone’s eyes were glued to it.
It was simply too beautiful.
Someone could not help but secretly record a small video and post it on the internet.
[Meeting You In the Depths of Time] was a small-budget web drama that was made by Kuai Xue. It was a little confidential.
When a portion of the style was leaked out, the director treated it as a publicity stunt.
And when the video of Shi Xi wearing a wedding dress was leaked out, the internet instantly exploded.
[Ah ah ah! My wife is so beautiful! Are you going to marry me today?]
[F*ck, Shi Xi is so gorgeous in a wedding dress. I really want to marry her.]
[What kind of drama is this? The style is so awesome.]
[I’m looking forward to Shi Xi’s [Meeting You In the Depths of Time]. This little cookie, I can’t wait anymore!]
[…]
On the other end of the internet, Nan Wan saw the trending hashtag #Shi Xi Is Gorgeous In a Wedding Dress#. She was so angry that she smashed the cup in her hand.
Nan Wan had previously seen the netizens asking the production crew to dress her up in a garish style after they said that they didn’t want xianxia’s funeral style.
The director agreed, but the complicated styling took a lot of time. Nan Wan had to get up at 4 o’clock every day to do the styling.
Although she was tired and sleepy, this way, her makeup was much better than before.
Nan Wan endured it.
In the end, she put in a lot of effort to expose her styling. She had just bought a #Nan Wan Xianxia Fantasy Beautiful Photos# trending search, and before the netizens could praise her, Shi Xi had turned against her!
Was Shi Xi purposely going against her?
Nan Wan gritted her teeth in anger.
It had to be said that Nan Wan had blamed Shi Xi wrongly.
Although Shi Xi did not like Nan Wan, she did not care about Nan Wan’s progress at all.
And Nan Wan wanted to compare herself with Shi Xi everywhere. Shi Xi had changed her appearance and made it onto the trending searches. She had to wonder if Shi Xi was going against her.
Just as Nan Wan was about to change her account to blacken Shi Xi, the director came looking for her.
“Nan Wan, why was your style captured? And it’s trending?” The director frowned.
“Ah? Maybe it was captured by accident. I’m not sure either.” Nan Wan was clueless.
The director said coldly, “Remove the trending. This style that was leaked can no longer be used. Reshoot everything.”
Nan Wan was shocked. “But I’ve already been shooting for a few days…”
She had woken up almost a week ago at 4 o’clock because of this lousy styling!
“The styling that was leaked out can no longer be used,” the director said coldly. “We’re shooting a movie, not some random online drama! Once the styling of a movie is leaked out, we can only reshoot it.”
Some directors had strict confidentiality regarding the script and the styling of the actors. They banned all acting on their behalf.
Some online dramas did not have any restrictions on this.
This was Nan Wan’s first time shooting a movie and also her first time working with this director. She did not expect him to be so strict.
The trending searches were removed, her scenes were reshot, and all the appearances were redone.
Nan Wan clenched her fists.
It was all Shi Xi’s fault!
If it was not for Shi Xi, how could she be so miserable?!
..
Shi Xi, on the other hand, did not know anything about what had happened.
She was at ease filming, politely accepting compliments from the people around her.
