Abu and Lü Haotian were originally going to attend Liu Shiya's new product launch today, but when they heard that Chi Ruiche was bringing Jiang Yi, they decided to go to the event later. They actually wanted to bring Jiang Yi along, hoping that seeing something she used to like would stir up her emotions.

"Xiao Yi, I still prefer your lively and energetic self. It's been so long since I've heard you tease me. Don't you think that's being a jerk?"

Abu leaned closer to look at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi was lifeless now, whereas in the past, her eyes would dart around like a cunning fox, full of energy.

"Xiaoya's press conference officially starts at 2 PM. You can go and watch it when you're done with your work."

Lu Haotian handed an invitation to Jiang Yi and placed it next to her. "Xiao Yi is coming. Your sister Ya has been talking about it for a long time. She's been too busy with work to see you lately. Why don't you go and give her a surprise?"

Ever since they learned that Jiang Yi had become like this, everyone has been extremely careful when speaking to her, treating her like a child.

"Let's talk about it then."

Chi Ruiche glanced at the time and prepared to start the meeting. His secretary, Su Li, had already come over and handed him the documents. Then she went outside to make some tea. Department heads arrived one after another, and, not wanting Jiang Yi to leave his sight, they arranged seats in the meeting room.

Chi Ruiche led Jiang Yi to the conference room, where a new female employee approached Su Li and asked her a question.

"Sister Suli, here's your coffee."

His eyes were fixed on the direction of the conference room. Chen Baole, a new employee and assistant, was in charge of miscellaneous tasks for the company. Because he had just arrived, he was particularly eager to please Su Li, preparing coffee for her every day.

"The little girl's eyes are practically popping out."

Sully noticed that she kept looking in the direction of the conference room, not towards where she was going to get her coffee.

Chen Baole smiled sheepishly, "No way!"

She was overjoyed to get a job at a big company right after graduating from university at the age of 23. She tried to please others every day in hopes of getting a permanent position. But gossip is in her nature, and besides, their CEO, Mr. Chi, is really handsome. She leaned over and whispered.

"Sister Suli, who was that girl that President Chi was holding hands with just now? They were holding hands tightly. Isn't today's meeting very important?"

Suli smiled. The little girl's intentions were obvious, but considering her daily coffee consumption, she decided to give her a little lesson.

"She is President Chi's girlfriend."

"She's the daughter of the Land Bureau Director!" Chen Baole's voice was very soft, clearly misled by the entertainment news.

"Where did you get all this gossip, you little brat? This is Miss Jiang Yi from the Jiang Group."

Su Liming pretends to be serious on the surface, but he is a fangirl in secret. He didn't know that Jiang Yi was a girl before and even shipped male-male couples. After finding out that Jiang Yi was a girl, he became a die-hard fan of the Yi Chi couple.

"Your circle is really messy!" Chen Baole said, expressing his incomprehension of the world of the rich, who seem to have a new partner every now and then.

Suli felt compelled to give her a good talking-to, to let her know how well-matched the two of them were.

"It's not what you think! Miss Jiang and our CEO Chi are childhood sweethearts. I heard from CEO Bu that CEO Chi loves Miss Jiang so much that he would climb up and pluck the stars from the sky and give her the moon instead."

Chen Baole's eyes lit up. "Really? They've known each other since they were little?"

"Yes, they have a very deep relationship. Have you seen the TV series 'A Smile Worth a Thousand Pieces of Gold'? The actress who played Xia Yue is Liang Simin?" Su Li frantically brainwashed her.

"I've seen it, and I was totally a fan of the male lead back then."

Chen Baole is a young girl who knows all about these idol dramas like the back of her hand.
