Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

Shen Nanzhou smiled and said, "Alright, I was inconsiderate today. I'll definitely invite him over next time as an apology, okay?"

Zhou Liwan smiled sweetly and nodded: "Okay."

"Alright, it's getting late. You should go home and get some rest. Don't stay up late."

Zhou Liwan nodded, realizing she was indeed exhausted. Without saying anything more, she turned and left.

Shen Nanzhou didn't move, and continued to watch the girl go upstairs.

After everyone disappeared through the door of his room, he turned and walked to the French windows, making a phone call: "Investigate everything that the young lady went tonight, who she met, and what she talked about. I want her things to be on my desk first thing tomorrow morning."

The person on the other end readily agreed and then hung up the phone.

He stood there for a while before going back to his room.

The morning light is just beginning to break, and the air is filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

After Zhou Li woke up, she looked at the warm sunlight shining through the heavy shadows of the trees on her face.

By the time she came downstairs after enjoying the view, Shen Nanzhou had already gone to the company.

She thought about it all night. Indeed, it was not a problem for him to care about her as an elder; it was just that she had been a bit petty.

Since it's the weekend anyway, I might as well cook something for him for lunch.

I had nothing to do in the morning, so I thanked Jiang Shiyue again.

After all, it was because of him that he was able to learn more about what happened back then last night.

Then she asked the kitchen to prepare a mixed meal of meat and vegetables, and to make extra, so she could go over and eat with him.

Then I prepared some light meals for my grandfather.

This morning, I accompanied my grandfather out of bed for a walk outdoors.

Around noon, they finally had the things prepared and put in the car, probably because I caught a chill last night.

I wasn't feeling very energetic today, so the servants prepared everything.

Upon arriving at the destination, Shen Nanzhou's meeting was still ongoing, so Zhou Liwan simply went straight to his office and waited for a while.

When Shen Nanzhou arrived, Zhou Liwan was already asleep. Shen Nanzhou didn't have the heart to disturb her, but Zhou Liwan, who was a light sleeper, still woke up.

Upon seeing the person who arrived, she rubbed her eyes and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Uncle."

Zhou Liwan was unaware of how much she looked at that moment aroused an instinctive impulse in men; she simply looked at the man with a hazy smile.

Shen Nanzhou took off his coat, rinsed his hands in the washroom, and then slowly came out. He rolled up his sleeves, set out all the food Zhou Liwan had brought, and prepared the bowls and chopsticks. Then he said to Zhou Liwan affectionately, "Alright, eat quickly. It's not like before, it gets cold quickly."

Zhou Liwan felt a bit heavy-headed, so she didn't respond. She nodded obediently, then ate a few bites before she couldn't eat anymore.

Shen Nanzhou noticed something, frowned, and reached out to touch her forehead. Sure enough, she had a fever.

He lost his appetite, quickly picked up the person, kicked open the door to the hidden room inside the office, and went inside.

There used to be a rest room inside, which he could sleep in his office when he was tired.

After Zhou Liwan lay down comfortably, Shen Nanzhou made a phone call to arrange for a doctor to come over.

"The young lady is fine. It's probably just a cold and fever caused by being chilled. Let her rest for a while and sweat it out."

The doctor packed up his instruments and stepped aside.

Shen Nanzhou was relieved. The girl was still sleeping, so he didn't want to disturb her. He went out for lunch, had someone clean up the mess, and then continued working.

Song Yi'an raised her hand to look at the food box, her face full of girlish shyness.

The man had mentioned last time that he didn't like the smell of food in the office, so this time she specially prepared all cold dishes.

I had a Michelin three-star chef from France specially prepare this, so it took a lot of time, but this time the other party will definitely feel my sincerity.

Thinking of this, Song Yi'an's smile became even wider.

Once she stepped out of the elevator, she quickly composed herself and headed straight for the man's office.

Her assistant Han and Ding Xiangru immediately tried to stop her, but she was walking too fast.

They had already pushed open the door and gone inside. The two looked at each other, said nothing, and stood respectfully at the door: "Sorry, BOSS, we couldn't stop them just now."

Shen Nanzhou raised his head and said calmly, "It's nothing, you can go now."

The two felt relieved and then left.

After the door closed, Ding Xiangru's eyes darted around a few times: "You go back to your office first. I'll wait here. If anyone gets kicked out, I'll take them out immediately."

In fact, Ding Xiangru had her own selfish motives. She was afraid that the person would actually be kept behind, since their relationship was different from that of a typical man and woman.

We certainly cannot let our guard down.

Assistant Han felt that what she said made some sense, so he stopped walking back and slowly stopped: "Then I'll go with you, so we can help each other if anything happens."

Ding Xiangru nodded, and then the two of them listened intently without looking up, afraid of missing any sound.

Shen Nanzhou seemed particularly busy, and didn't look up since the woman came in. However, Song Yi'an was still very happy because last night, the old man of the Jiang family suddenly contacted her grandfather, saying that he wanted the two of them to marry.

Now I can finally settle my mind. This man is definitely meant to be mine.

Watching the man work so diligently, Song Yi'an's heart raced uncontrollably.

"Because you mentioned before that you don't like the smell of food in the office, I specially asked the chef to make a cold meal today. Why don't you try it?"

After Song Yi'an set out the food, Shen Nanzhou slowly raised his head: "Miss Song, last night the old man arranged a marriage without my consent. I did not agree to it, nor did I announce it to the public, so I hope you can be a little more reserved. The reason I allowed you to come in is to make it clear to you that there is no possibility between us."

After saying that, he didn't give the woman a chance to speak, and lowered his head to continue working.

They had an attitude that kept everyone at arm's length.

Song Yi'an was pale, feeling extremely humiliated. She couldn't understand why this man kept embarrassing her. What had she done wrong?

Even so, she still liked him very much. After all, there was no other man in the world who was so noble and extraordinary, who did not play around with women, did not indulge in debauchery, and was so outstanding.

If I don't take the initiative, he might end up with another woman.

So even though he spoke harshly to her, she took a deep breath and pretended not to hear it.

Song Yi'an brought over an exquisitely presented pastry, placed it directly on the man's desk.

"Try it, it tastes really good."

"..."

There was complete silence, broken only by the sound of the man's long, slender fingers tapping on the keyboard.

Song Yi'an, refusing to believe it, picked up a piece and held it to the man's lips. The woman outside the window, who was watching, nearly pierced the glass with her eyes.

She was afraid the man would open his mouth and eat it.

Shen Nanzhou finally stopped what he was doing, raised his eyes coldly, and with a wave of his hand, knocked the thing away.

Song Yi'an exclaimed in surprise; the spot on her arm where she had been touched was bright red.

She looked at the man with a wronged expression: "Why! What did I do that you didn't like!"
