The leader of the cultivation alliance has a crush on me.

Song Ke: "Look at your sarcastic attitude. That's someone you like, no wonder they don't like you with this attitude."

"Song Ke".

"what?"

"I'll say it again, I don't like Gu Qing."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Song Ke, his gaze serious: "I'm not playing games with you."

Song Ke felt uncomfortable under his serious gaze. She turned to look out the window and said speechlessly, "Why are you telling me this?"

"At worst, I'll just stop meddling in your business from now on."

After saying that, Ji Tingchu Tiancheng chuckled and then said, "I didn't mean you have to interfere."

Can I offer a suggestion?

Seeing his pleading expression, Song Ke turned to look at him and asked curiously, "What's your opinion?"

"Just stop trying to link me to Gu Qing all the time. There's no future for us."

Song Ke was startled when she heard this.

"No...no, you're already backing down?"

Chu Tiancheng sighed: "Why can't you listen to me?"

"never mind."

Song Ke continued to ask questions.

In the quiet carriage, a few awkward voices suddenly rang out.

"Coo...coo coo coo..."

The two exchanged a glance, tacitly understanding each other's meaning through their eyes.

"You haven't eaten either?" Song Ke asked.

Chu Tiancheng sighed: "I didn't eat any rice, but I ate quite a lot of other things."

"Then why is your stomach still growling?"

Chu Tiancheng looked dejected: "Stop irritating me."

"What would you like to eat? Or should we eat at home?"

Song Ke pointed to her mouth; the ulcer that had been treated with the medication seemed to have completely disappeared. She asked, "What do you think I can eat now?"

"Even drinking water is killing me."

"Just consider skipping a couple of meals as a way to lose weight, it's not a big deal."

Song Ke spoke haltingly and incoherently.

Chu Tiancheng glanced at her, said nothing, and drove away.

He Yunming watched the departing car with a calm gaze, revealing a hint of deep thought.

Two days later, Song Ke was at the company when she looked up and saw Qin Huan coming out of the elevator. She paused for a couple of seconds, looking at her with some confusion.

Qin Huan's arrival made the originally quiet office much livelier.

Qin Huan is good at interpersonal relationships. Although she is only interning here, she has won the hearts of many people, so everyone went to visit and comfort her.

Song Ke remained seated, glanced at her for a few seconds, then looked away, her expression showing no interest in acknowledging her.

Song Ke ignored her, but she was very eager to please.

Qin Huan walked up to Song Ke with a fake smile on his face and obvious resentment in his eyes.

"Song Keke, you're happy now, but I've been fired by President Chu."

Song Ke wasn't surprised by her words. She looked at her with a faint smile, which Qin Huan saw as utter contempt and disdain.

She got even angrier: "What are you laughing at?"

Song Ke said softly, "Just laugh casually."

"What's wrong? You're so angry. You don't dare to vent your anger on Chu Tiancheng, so you're trying to get attention from me."

Do I look that easy to bully?

Qin Huan was taken aback by Song Ke's sudden change in attitude. She hadn't expected the usually silly Song Ke to suddenly become so sharp.

"Song Ke, who is bullying whom? I've been hospitalized for so long because of who? I didn't intend to argue with you, but you can't push your luck."

"I know I don't have any connections, so even if you bully me, I can't say much."

Qin Huan spoke with a wronged expression, as if she had been bullied terribly by Song Ke.

Those around them didn't dare to say anything and all kept their heads down, focusing on their work.

Song Ke raised her eyebrows, completely unaffected by Qin Huan's sudden change of aggrieved expression, and simply said, "Whether you're busy or not, you don't have to go to work, but we do. It's not appropriate for you to just stand here like this."

"Furthermore, this floor is an important work area for the company, and the materials stored here are all company secrets. You wouldn't be holding a grudge because you were fired, and you'd be trying to steal trade secrets, would you?"

Qin Huan was startled upon hearing this and quickly denied it, saying, "Don't talk nonsense, how could I do such a thing?"

“Song Ke, you can’t just smear me because I’m easy to bully. You can hate me, but you can’t wrong me.”

Song Ke looked uninterested: "Alright, Chu Tiancheng isn't here, what are you pretending for?"

"How did I pretend?"

Qin Huan looked like she had suffered a great injustice, making two of her colleagues next to her look like they wanted to help but didn't dare to speak up because of Song Ke's family background.

When Chu Tiancheng came over after his meeting, he saw this scene.

When he saw Qin Huan, he looked at his assistant Fang with a puzzled expression.

Assistant Fang immediately understood and said, "President Chu, Qin Huan said earlier that she hadn't packed her things yet, so I was going to call a courier to send them to her, but she said she would come and pick them up herself."

Chu Tiancheng nodded after listening, not even giving her a second glance, and turned to go back to his office.

Qin Huan was initially delighted to see Chu Tiancheng suddenly appear, but he didn't even give her a glance before heading straight back to his office. Naturally, she quickly greeted him, "President Chu."

Chu Tiancheng ignored her and walked into the office without stopping. Assistant Fang turned around and glanced at her, while the onlookers had already returned to their places the moment Chu Tiancheng appeared.

Song Ke ignored her and sat there quietly, stamping the documents.

"Qin Huan, come with me for a moment."

With a helpless expression, Assistant Fang called the person into his office before asking, "Have you packed everything?"

Qin Huan paused for a moment, then shook her head: "I... just arrived."

Assistant Fang didn't beat around the bush with her, his expression calm but with a hint of sarcasm: "Qin Huan, the security department gave me this information half an hour ago, so I won't say anything unpleasant."

"You were fired because you know in your heart that President Chu was generous and didn't let you suffer any losses, even paying you an extra month's salary. If you still want to cause trouble, I advise you to quit while you're ahead."

Qin Huan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Her face turned pale as she continued to argue, "Assistant Fang, I didn't do anything. You can't wrong me."

"Qin Huan." Assistant Fang suddenly slammed his hands heavily on the table, staring at her piercingly and shouting, which startled Qin Huan.

Assistant Fang raised his wrist, glanced at the time, and said coldly, "I'll give you ten minutes to pack, otherwise you don't need to take your things."

Qin Huan glanced at Assistant Fang a few times with a resentful look, then left angrily.

When Chu Tiancheng was leaving get off work that evening, he called out to Song Ke.

"What?"

Chu Tiancheng smiled faintly: "I'll take you back."

After listening, Song Ke looked at him strangely, then asked with a suspicious expression, "Chu Tiancheng, are you alright?"

"What's the real motive behind this sudden act of kindness?"

Chu Tiancheng: "...Don't you know what I'm thinking?"

"let's have dinner tonight."

Song Ke looked refusing: "But I'm going home for dinner today."

"That works too. I really like the food your housekeeper makes."

Song Ke: “…”
