”Come in, please.” A man's voice sounded from within. His tone was cold.

Chu Lui rubbed his forehead, and then he put his pen down as he noticed Xia Ruoxin. His usually sharp eyes were covered with visible blood vessels. Dark circles had also formed under his eyes. He obviously had not had a good rest for a while.

”Did something happen?” She looked at the stacks of documents in front of him. Could he really finish reading all these?
”Nothing.” His voice sounded hoarse. He took Xia Ruoxin's hands in his. ”Did I wake you? Alright, give me some time. After I've finished all the work, we will go on a holiday.”
Suddenly, Xia Ruoxin felt sad, and her heart ached. She hurt for him. He was so busy; would he think of her?
”Can I help you with anything?” Her hand still on his shoulder. She felt useless for the first time as she could not help him. With the exception of art and a bit of music, she knew nothing.
”There's no need to.” Chu Lui patted her hand. ”You just have to come and keep me company. I will be done soon.” He comforted her, but it only made her feel worse. Although he said 'soon', he still continued to work for a long time.
