"Eh? Director Shi?" Guan Cha went to the front yard to get something and saw Shi Shui coming out of the room.
Guan Cha has helped Bai Li a lot in her career, and I've heard a bit about this celebrity at Lingxi Technology.
As far as he knew, this person was no longer just an ordinary researcher, but a national-level talent who needed special protection when traveling.
That was all he knew about Shi Shui.
That's all.
He was unaware that Shi Shui had already formed a bond with Bai Li long before him, so Guan Cha was quite surprised to see Shi Shui here and now.
This guest room in the front yard is where Shi Shui stayed temporarily two years ago when Shi Li took her back.
After he left, Bai Li didn't have anyone clean the room again, leaving it for him and Xiao Hua so they could come and play anytime.
Bai Li went to Haicheng during the day and brought him back with her. Naturally, he still stayed in the same room as before.
Thinking about what happened during the day, a warmth unconsciously crept into Shi Shui's eyes, and the corners of her lips lifted slightly.
He glanced at Guan Cha, searched his memory, and realized he really didn't recognize the person in front of him. He nodded politely and asked in a gentle voice, "Who are you?"
Looking at the cold face before her, Guan Cha saw a smile that seemed to melt away the first chill of winter, and a bad feeling welled up inside her.
Could this Director Shi also be...?
"I'm Guan Cha." He briefly introduced himself, his gaze seemingly casually sweeping over the door behind Shi Shui, and tentatively asked, "That room... is it yours?"
Guan Cha remembered that when he first stayed at a hotel, someone helped him choose a room and seemed to mention that this room was not available, but the others were fine.
He didn't take it seriously at the time. The door was closed, and he thought it was a room with a special purpose. He didn't expect it to be a guest room.
And now it seems that it was specifically reserved for someone... and the time was much earlier than his.
The implications are self-evident.
Guan Cha's smile became somewhat stiff as she thought there were only so many people left.
"It can't really be said to be mine, it's just that my sister... Bai Li reserved a room for me." Shi Shui still spoke with a scientific rigor.
He thought for a moment and confirmed that he had never heard of Guan Cha's name, but the other party knew him.
Professor Xu often says that if you spend all your time in the laboratory, your attention to the outside world will decrease.
Shi Shui didn't believe it at first, but later she gradually came to understand it.
Many people are unaware of current news, and some even forget who the people are, showing a disconnect from the outside world.
He looked somewhat apologetic, his eyes sincere: "Do we know each other? If we have met and I have forgotten, I am very sorry, I did not mean to."
Shi Shui appeared aloof and naive.
In fact, he is more sincere than anyone else.
Hit by Shi Shui's straight shot, Guan Cha clearly realized this as well. Looking into Shi Shui's sincere eyes, she made up her mind.
Well, that adds another type...
I originally thought there were no white rabbits in Bai Li's backyard, so I deliberately developed myself in that direction.
It turned out that there was a chosen master player on this track.
Compared to his carefully cultivated goodness, Director Shi's purity was innate.
For some reason... I feel a little tired...
Guan Cha waved her hand and smiled wryly, "You... don't need to apologize, we don't know each other."
At this point, Guan Cha paused for a moment, then said meaningfully, "Of course... we'll get to know each other gradually in the future."
----------------------------------
Living under the same roof, they saw each other all the time, and gradually they all learned each other's names.
Just then, the owner of the house was not there, and the atmosphere became quite subtle as the men exchanged glances.
When Jingye came downstairs, she had already changed into the Tang suit she usually wore at home.
His clothing was undoubtedly the most exquisite among them, all high-end custom-made Tang suits. Paired with his finely sculpted face, he was already otherworldly in beauty on ordinary days. On this special day, he was even more meticulously dressed, exuding an air of noble composure.
He has fully embraced his work; at the company, he is the CEO of Shirai; at home, he is the deacon in charge of everything.
After the quiet night appeared, the NPCs began to busy themselves inside and out.
The others present also tactfully lent a hand, and the previously subtle and tense atmosphere was finally eased somewhat by this superficial cooperation.
At that very moment, the doorbell rang again.
A tall man walked in through the door, wearing a trench coat and sporting a meticulously styled haircut.
"President Jing." Zhang Yu greeted Jing Ye respectfully with his eyes lowered.
Jingye nodded slightly in response, her gaze sweeping over his slightly deliberate attire: "Did you come from the film set?"
Zhang Yu explained, "No, filming for 'Gone with the Wind' has wrapped up, but I haven't started filming my new movie yet. I just finished a promotional event..."
The two stood there and chatted about work for a while.
As Bai Li's closest confidant and the company's CEO, Jing Ye was also Zhang Yu's direct superior, so he naturally knew about the relationship between Zhang Yu and Bai Li.
Considering the special nature of an artist's identity, Jingye took great care of Zhang Yu in terms of information protection and schedule arrangements.
Although they were superior and subordinate, Jingye did not have any intimidating presence, and since the two were of similar age, they got along quite well.
During the conversation, Zhang Yu glanced unintentionally in the direction of his home twice.
The movement was subtle, but Jingye noticed it keenly and pointed it out directly: "She's not here right now, you can take this opportunity to change your clothes."
I just came from a promotional event, looking travel-worn and my makeup and hair weren't quite done.
Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback: "Is that alright?"
“There’s nothing wrong with it.” Jingye said calmly; he wasn’t so petty as to be overly concerned with tolerance.
Bai Li gave him enough sense of security, and he didn't feel that having one or two more would pose any threat to him.
Especially with someone like Zhang Yu who has a good sense of propriety, he doesn't need to worry too much.
"Ahe," Jingye called to a passing servant, "take Mr. Zhang to the back courtyard to change his clothes."
With a large family and many vacant rooms, they always keep a variety of emergency men's clothing on hand, enough for Zhang Yu to wash up and get dressed again.
“Okay. Mr. Zhang, please follow me.” Ahe nodded and led Zhang Yu toward the back courtyard.
They are Bai Li's NPCs, and by default they obey Bai Li's orders. However, if Bai Li is not around, they will follow Jing Ye's arrangements, which is a privilege granted to him by Bai Li.
Jingye's gaze swept over his several "colleagues" in the hall, each with their own unique strengths. His composure stemmed from his inner certainty.
He was certain that in Bai Li's heart, he would always be the most special one.
