Translator: _Min_

After Su Ting departed, Gu Dai received a call from s.h.i.+ Nuan.

Daidai, I heard youre resting today. How about we go out for a stroll? s.h.i.+ Nuan suggested, followed by a chuckle, Daidai, if youre on a date with Su Ting, then

Gu Dai coughed softly to cut off s.h.i.+ Nuans words, eagerly proposing, Su Ting went to work. Lets go shopping.

s.h.i.+ Nuan eagerly agreed, Sure, sure.

Having no particular needs, their outing was merely for afternoon tea and a chat.

s.h.i.+ Nuans eyes sparkled as she gazed at Gu Dai, Daidai, youre glowing. You must be getting along well with Su Ting lately?

Though it was a question, the a.s.sertion was evident in her tone.

A blush crept onto Gu Dais face.

Seeing Gu Dais reaction, s.h.i.+ Nuan covered her mouth, laughing, her shoulders shaking.

Gu Dai looked down, then with a smile, said, Nuannuan.

s.h.i.+ Nuan, sensing something amiss, asked quietly, Whats the matter, Daidai?

Gu Dai patted s.h.i.+ Nuans shoulder, How have you and my third brother been getting along?

The blush on Gu Dais face transferred to s.h.i.+ Nuan as she averted her gaze, We

As images flooded her mind, s.h.i.+ Nuan found herself unable to voice her thoughts, quickly changing the subject, Daidai, Ive heard that Zhou Corporation has been troubling your company lately. Do you need my help to deal with them?

Gu Dai shook her head, Su Ting and I have already taken action against Zhou Lins projects. He couldnt bear it and ended up in the hospital. He might still be investigating who targeted his company.

s.h.i.+ Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, In that case, lets spare him this time. Hes gotten off easy.

Gu Dais gaze remained intense as she pressed s.h.i.+ Nuan, Nuannuan, you havent told me about you and my brother.

s.h.i.+ Nuan tried to divert the conversation again.

Gu Dai, seeing through s.h.i.+ Nuans intentions, reminded, Nuannuan, youve already asked me.

s.h.i.+ Nuan, avoiding eye contact, shyly admitted, Meng Zhi and I were together now.

Gu Dais eyes lit up.

s.h.i.+ Nuan, blus.h.i.+ng, recounted her recent times with Meng Zhi.

Gu Dai listened with satisfaction, nodding and laughing in agreement. By the time their conversation ended, they had finished their desserts.

Stepping out of the private room, s.h.i.+ Nuan exclaimed in surprise, Daidai, isnt that Su Ci over there?

Gu Dai looked and nodded, Yes, thats him.

Su Ci was talking to the restaurant manager. Feeling the gaze upon him, he looked over, relaxed his furrowed brows upon seeing Gu Dai, and approached with a gentle smile.

Su Ci chuckled, Daidai, are you here for afternoon tea?

Gu Dai nodded, then inquired, And you?

Su Ci explained, I recently opened this restaurant. Im here to check on things.

After stating this, he asked for their opinion on the food.

Gu Dai complimented, Delicate taste, sweet but not overwhelming.

s.h.i.+ Nuan nodded in agreement, Really delicious!

Su Ci smiled, Thats good to hear. I was planning to invite you after things settled a bit, but it seems my plan was too late.

Gu Dai replied, Your restaurant has already become famous in our circle. Many say its delicious, so I couldnt wait to come.

As she finished speaking, her phone beeped.

Zheng Ming: The tech team found a small unresolved issue in the project.

Gu Dai: Ill be there soon.

s.h.i.+ Nuan, noticing Gu Dais expression, asked, Daidai, what happened?

Gu Dai, suppressing her irritation, explained, Zhou Corporation caused some minor issues before; one hasnt been dealt with yet. I need to head back to the company.

Su Ci, hearing Zhou Corporation, showed concern.

Gu Dai nodded, then bid farewell to Su Ci, I must go now. Well catch up another time when Im free.

Su Ci responded warmly, Alright.

Watching Gu Dai leave, Su Cis gaze lowered, hiding the disappointment within.

Their paths were diverging further and further apart..
