Ruan Mian sighed speechlessly as she looked at the basket of fruit piled on top of the spaceship.

I knew this man liked these fruits and vegetables, but I never expected he'd use them to pay for the ride.

They really love plants!

Are you going to the Huo family to discuss business?

Qin Xiulin watched as the girl beside him went from initial joy to gradual calm before starting to chat with her.

Ruan Mian turned to look at him and gave a faint "hmm".

They didn't seem very interested in the conversation.

Qin Xiulin felt like he was being met with another cold shoulder.

He was seething with anger; when had he ever been so humiliated? But…

A faint, lingering fruity scent occasionally wafted to my nose.

Sigh softly.

I just can't get angry at her.

"Get ready, we're about to jump to a space point."

Ruan Mian then saw a dark hole in front of her, and the spaceship went in with a whoosh.

They arrived at another node at lightning speed.

After a long while, I don't know how long, things finally calmed down.

"Wow--"

Ruan Mian was vomiting so badly she felt dizzy and disoriented. This stuff was even more thrilling than riding a roller coaster!

Qin Xiulin quickly came over, gently patted her back, and took out a bottle of water and handed it to her.

A hint of pity appeared in their eyes.

"Are you alright? Have some water first."

It wasn't until the cool water flowed into her throat that Ruan Mian felt a little better in her stomach.

"Thank you."

The surrounding scenery changed, and the planets outside looked far more luxurious than the one she saw that belonged to her.

It looks incredibly high-tech!

"This is the headquarters of the Huo Group."

After thinking for a moment, he quickly added, "I'll take you inside. Do you want to talk to them?"

Actually, his spaceship arrived, and his application was approved.

But for some reason, I just wanted to talk to her to distract her.

"Okay, then I'll tell him."

Just thinking about the person she was about to meet made Ruan Mian unable to contain her joy; her eyebrows curved and her smile was radiant.

Qin Xiulin's eyes darkened slightly. The thought that such a beautiful smile was for another man made him inexplicably unhappy.

He wasn't quite sure why he was feeling unhappy.

They had only had a few opportunities to interact with this woman in front of them.

What's so special about her?

There's nothing particularly special about it.

I couldn't help but laugh at myself with a self-deprecating smile. When did I become so worried and anxious?

On the other side, Ruan Mian had already finished talking to Huo Junze and was very excited to know that her spaceship was about to arrive.

"Mr. Qin, I've already spoken to him. You can just drive right in!"

The headquarters of the Huo Group is not hard to find.

As soon as they entered, someone guided them to land, and people escorted them along the way.

What a grand reception for VIPs!

Once the plane landed at the designated spot, Ruan Mian eagerly stepped off, where Secretary Mo was already waiting at the entrance.

Upon seeing her appear, he immediately went to greet her.

"Ms. Ruan, a warm welcome to you. Mr. Huo is still in a meeting and can't leave, so he specifically asked me to pick you up."

Being a domineering CEO isn't an easy job.

Ruan Mian expressed her understanding.

"I understand, thank you for your hard work, Secretary Mo."

As she was about to walk forward, she remembered something, turned around, and waved to Qin Xiulin.

"Mr. Qin, thank you for bringing me here!"

In short, it's goodbye.

Qin Xiulin's lips curled up, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; his tongue pressed against the root of his teeth.

What a heartless little thing! He used it and then threw it away. It was so cheap and easy to use!

He wanted to say something more, but a tall, slender figure walked quickly towards him from not far away.

"Mian Mian!"

A deep, cheerful male voice rang out, and he watched as the heartless little girl flitted off like a butterfly.

Then, in front of so many people, she threw herself into the arms of the man who happened to have his arms outstretched.

A faint, familiar, cool fragrance lingered around her nose, and beneath her hands were hard, muscular hands. The smile on Ruan Mian's lips never faded.

"Weren't you in a meeting?"

Huo Junze's eyes were fixed on her face. He gently reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.

Thinking about the frustrating meeting he had just attended, he frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed.

"I'm not as important as you."

They're all useless; they can't even do a proper plan, and they almost made him late to pick up his girlfriend!

Where did Mianmian come from?

Ruan Mian pointed behind her, "Those are the guests sitting on my side..."

She looked towards the doorway, but Qin Xiulin was nowhere to be seen; there was only the black shadow of a spaceship flying away.

"He was a guest, but he's gone."

Huo Junze narrowed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought, but quickly pulled himself out of it.

His large hand slid down to intertwine with her fingers, holding hers tightly.

"Shall I show you where your boyfriend works?"

She had already put the question of whose spaceship she was on out of her mind; Ruan Mian was now blushing from the warmth of her hands.

They only had eyes for the people around them and were curious about everything around them.

"Yeah, okay."

The two of them, along with Secretary Mo, took the elevator together.

Secretary Mo: Help! Why is the elevator so bright? Oh, I'm the third wheel!

"Secretary Mo, this is for you."

Ruan Mian took out a big, red apple from the computer, and Secretary Mo's eyes lit up the moment she saw it.

Although he didn't know what it was, anything that could be taken from Ruan Mian must be related to plants.

She really wanted it; even from such close range, she could smell the faint fruity fragrance!

But we should still be polite.

"Miss Ruan, this is too precious, I can't accept it, how could I possibly accept it?"

Ruan Mian pushed the apple in her hand forward a little further, and you could easily see the little scheme in his eyes!

"I brought these specially for you. These apples are crisp, sweet, juicy, and firm. They're so delicious, you'll feel a satisfying crunch when you bite into them. Don't you really want them?"

Sihasiha——

Secretary Mo swallowed his saliva repeatedly, and couldn't stop drooling.

"This, this is me..."

His gaze fell on Huo Junze's face, as if asking a question.

Ruan Mian followed his gaze to Huo Junze, a half-smile on her face.

It seems like we need him to give a reason.

“Miss Ruan gave it to you, why are you looking at me? Just take it yourself.”

Secretary Mo then happily accepted it with both hands.

"Thank you, Miss Ruan, you're so kind."

"Of course, you've helped me a lot before, thank you for your hard work~"

At this point, those who have benefited will naturally praise their boss.

"All of this was ordered by the boss. I didn't do anything; it was just my job."

Huo Junze: You've got a good eye, kid!
