”Will you invite Ai Ting to our house for a visit tomorrow?” Chu Zhiruo looked at Chu Mengyao and said with a very gentle voice.

”Yes, Auntie.”

Not long later, Chu Zhiruo left Mengyao's room. Initially, Chu Mengyao had even wanted to call Fu Yi, but upon thinking that he might still be in a meeting, he changed his mind and sent a message to say good night.

Fu Yi was in a good mood after reading the text message, but when he thought about how he still could not reveal the relationship between the two of them, he became depressed.

Xiaoyiran really came to the meeting the next morning. He looked no different from before and was still skinny.

During the meeting, Xiaoyiran didn't talk much, it was mainly because Director Zhang and Chu Mengyao were conversing together, with many details being repeatedly discussed. He just sat there and listened, occasionally giving her own opinion. During the whole meeting, he didn't seem to be in a good state. She kept looking at her phone as if she was waiting for a call.

The meeting continued for a difficult day. The only thing worth celebrating was that the progress had been significantly improved. Most of the details had already been decided. It was almost 6 in the afternoon, but Xiaoyiran rejected Chu Zhiruo's invitation to eat dinner and directly left.

After sending off Xiaoyiran and his group, when they returned back to the meeting room, Chu Mengyao saw an exquisite rectangular box on the table, ”Bai Xue, do you know whose this is?”

”I think Director Xiao was just sitting there.” Bai Xue carefully recalled the seats that everyone was seated at.

Chu Mengyao called Xiaoyiran to ask about it, and it really was him who accidentally dropped it. She quickly took the box downstairs and gave it to Xiaoyiran.

Returning to the office to pack up, Chu Mengyao prepared to get off work. At this time, Chu Zhiruo walked over, ”Mengyao, is Ai Ting coming to the house today?”

Chu Mengyao laughed a little awkwardly, she had completely forgotten about this matter. ”Ai Ting has something to do today.” Ai Ting was probably in the middle of filming a movie. If she really went back to H City, she would have called him a long time ago.

After Chu Zhiruo heard this, she opened her mouth and said, ”Then after you pack up, we will go participate in a meal together in a while.”

”Auntie, I'm afraid I can't do it today. ”I have something to do.” Chu Mengyao rejected it. She had promised Fu Yi today, and if he continued, he would definitely be angry.

”Do you have an appointment with Haoran?” Chu Zhiruo asked probingly, her eyes staring straight at Mengyao.

”No, with someone else.”

”I did. Let's meet again next time.” Chu Zhiruo immediately decided on her behalf.

”I've already made an appointment. If you push it away, it won't be good.” Chu Mengyao was still fighting with all her might.

Chu Zhiruo's expression had already turned cold, ”Work is more important than friends, our Chu's will sooner or later be handed over to you. Your handling of the issue right now is a great disappointment to aunty. ”

Since he had no choice but to break his promise, Fu Yi felt a sense of defeat when he heard this news.

This time, the guests were not only Chu Zhiruo and Mengyao, but also the other colleagues from the Public Relations Department.

These leaders look serious in their normal work, but at the dinner table, they don't perform so well outside of work. Hearing that their conversation was getting more and more excessive, Chu Mengyao frowned. Fortunately, the women sent by the PR Department were used to dealing with this situation. They flattered the leaders by pouring wine, and soon, the leaders were very happy.

Suddenly, Chu Mengyao's phone rang. When she saw that it was Fu Yi's phone call, she immediately walked out of the private box.

”There's a surprise when you turn around!” Fu Yi's voice carried a smile, but his words were a little strange.

”What do you mean?”

”Turn around and take a look.” Fu Yi said it again.

Just as Chu Mengyao turned around, she saw Fu Yi standing not far away. There were a lot of people walking up and down the corridor, but she spotted him anyway.

It was really a surprise that he did not expect to meet him here. Her eyes were filled with joy and surprise as she looked at him.

Fu Yi glanced at her, and then pointed to the box beside him, indicating her to come in.

Chu Mengyao took a look inside. Chu Zhiruo and the rest of the leaders were busy chatting with the others, no one seemed to have noticed her getting up. After a slight pause, she lifted her leg and walked towards Fu Yi's direction, and then entered the private box.

The moment he stepped into the private room, he closed the door. Fu Yi held her in his arms, and his lips immediately kissed her.

That familiar aura surrounded her, and the kiss with longing made her enraptured even more. She was not satisfied with her passivity. Instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck and responded to him.
