The whole dining process was quite harmonious.

The dishes were not as large as Yu Sheng had imagined.

But it is very delicate and pocket-sized.

I don’t know whether it was Cao Siye’s thoughtful instruction or if this is the way the restaurant serves its food.

Anyway, the food is gone before you can even taste it.

The dishes came out quickly and were removed quickly.

Over the years, Yu Sheng has visited many high-end places.

There are many restaurants that are expensive and not filling.

Gradually I got used to this rhythm and tried my best to savor the food carefully, letting each ingredient bloom quietly on the tip of my tongue and fill my mouth.

So throughout the meal, the two of them had basically no communication.

Only from time to time the knives, forks and plates would collide with each other, making crisp sounds.

During the entire meal, Cao Siye was basically observing Yu Sheng's reaction.

Seeing that she was eating very seriously, I couldn't bear to interrupt her.

Until I saw her put down her knife and fork, wipe her mouth, and look very satisfied.

Asked: "Are you full?"

"Ok!"

Cao Siye signaled the waiter to take the things away and not to come in and disturb them.

Seeing that they were about to get to the point, Yu Sheng's relaxed nerves immediately tensed up.

She had been worried about one thing before she came.

She was just afraid that Cao Siye would know that she had met Lei Yaoyang.

If Cao Siye were to take into account her jealous personality, once she knew the details, who knows what outrageous things she would do.

But when she saw his attitude when they met before, it seemed that he didn't know anything about it, so she felt relieved.

At that time, her mind was occupied by Sheng Ding's affairs, so she had no time to recall this incident.

And when she was eating just now, she was able to keep her attention on the food.

But when she saw that there were only two of them around and the whole environment became quiet, she suddenly felt a little nervous.

In order to cover up her guilty conscience, before Cao Siye could speak, she took the initiative to ask:

"Where have you been lately?"

Although it sounded like a caring greeting, the slight tremor in the voice could not be concealed.

Cao Siye didn't expect that Yu Sheng would suddenly care about her. She paused as she reached for the gift bag next to her. She felt a sweet and warm current flowing through her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

After a brief pause, he took out an exquisite red brocade box from the gift bag and smiled brightly:

"Looking for this thing."

Under Yu Sheng's puzzled gaze, Cao Siye placed the brocade box on the table and pushed it over.

"open to take a look."

Yu Sheng guessed that it was some valuable item and wanted to refuse it outright.

But when I saw Cao Siye’s bright eyes and a look of anticipation.

I took the box curiously in my hand and opened it carefully.

A comb that looked ordinary and even a little old appeared inside.

"Comb?" Yu Sheng was very surprised.

"Technically, it's an ox bone comb. It's an antique."

“Haha…” Yu Sheng smiled awkwardly, “That’s quite precious.”

After saying that, he closed the box and prepared to return it.

"This originally belonged to you..." Cao Siye was afraid that this would touch her minefield again, so she quickly changed the words.

"...It's Taohong's item. Her soul still remains on it. Take it and feel it to see if you can find some kind of connection."

Yu Sheng thought about it and realized that he had agreed to cooperate with Cao Siye to regain his memory, so there was no reason to refuse.

Without thinking, he opened the box again and took the ox bone comb in his hand.

Without any warning, her eyes suddenly flashed and she found herself in an antique house.

At this moment, she was combing her hair in front of a bronze mirror with a cow-bone comb in her hand. The person in the bronze mirror was wearing a light pink silk dress, dressed in ancient style.

Although the appearance is not very clear, it can be basically seen that he has the same face as hers.

There was a man standing next to her, it was Cao Siye.

He looked at himself in the mirror with a doting look on his face, then suddenly turned around and bent down, wanting to kiss her.

Just when the kiss was about to fall on the lips.

She shuddered and returned to the modern restaurant. Cao Siye, who was sitting across the table, was looking at her with delight.

"You sensed something, didn't you?"

Yu Sheng suppressed her pounding heart. The scene just now was so frightening that she felt uneasy.

When Cao Siye kissed her, she didn't resist at all, and even looked forward to it.

But she could still tell clearly that the body should be Taohong's, not her own, so that emotion should also be Taohong's.

Yu Sheng put the comb back into the box with a forced calmness, smiled, and said, "No."

Cao Siye looked disappointed and painful, and said, "You lied."

Being exposed like this, Yu Sheng was not panicked at all. Instead, he stared into Cao Siye's eyes and asked, "Did you read my mind?"

"I do not have."

"Then how do you know I lied?"

"I see."

"Hmph." Yu Sheng sneered, his eyes full of contempt and disbelief.

Cao Siye explained calmly:

"Not everything requires the use of supernatural powers. For example, I know you met Lei Yaoyang, but it's not because I followed you, but because..."

As he spoke, Lei Yaoyang took out his cell phone and showed them photos of them at the high-speed rail station.

"......Someone took a picture of you."

In the photo, at the exit ticket gate of the high-speed railway station, although Yu Sheng and Lei Yaoyang were some distance apart, they were already in the same frame.

"You actually sent someone to follow me?" Yu Sheng asked angrily.

"I said no, do you believe me?"

Yu Sheng snorted coldly.

"Yes, we did meet, but so what? You won't even forbid ordinary friends to meet, right?"

"Ordinary friends? Why are you so distant? Are you trying to hide something?"

Yu Sheng's heart trembled when he was asked this question. At that time, he deliberately kept a distance from Lei Yaoyang out of guilty conscience. Now thinking about it, it was indeed a bit of an attempt to hide one's guilt.

She was upset by this question. Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, she simply didn't bother to cover it up anymore. She raised her head and asked back:

"What do you think I'm trying to hide?" His tone was provocative.

You are playing with fire! A trace of anger flashed in Cao Siye's eyes. It's easy to find out what you did with him.

He slowly clenched his fists, preparing to freeze time and space, and then read the memory without knowing it for the rest of his life.

Yu Sheng seemed to have seen through his thoughts. Just before he cast the spell, he spoke coldly:

"Whatever you want to do, please think carefully first.

You have to know that the reason why we can sit down like this calmly, eat and chat.

Because we kept the promise to each other.

If you want to break this balance, use your skills on me, or find that I have violated the agreement.

There is undoubtedly only one result, that is, our one-year agreement will be invalidated.

Now that you have finally established a friendly cooperative relationship with me, why create trouble again?

So I advise you not to read my memory and give me enough respect and privacy.

Otherwise, if you see something you don’t want to see, it will only add to your pain.

You still have to pretend you know nothing."

Upon hearing that, Cao Siye slowly loosened his fist, but after only a moment of hesitation, he clenched it again.

The next second, the surrounding time and space were suspended. Looking at Yu Sheng who was completely frozen in front of him, Cao Siye murmured, "Nothing is more painful than losing you."

In a flash, Cao Siye teleported in front of Yu Sheng, and then slowly placed his right hand on Yu Sheng's cheek.

The memory scenes in Yu Sheng’s mind began to flash rapidly before Cao Siye’s eyes.

Although he had prepared himself mentally before, when he saw the two kissing passionately, he wanted to cut Lei Yaoyang into pieces immediately.

Cao Siye tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, but his hands couldn't stop shaking.

As the memory slowly unfolded, his gaze instantly shifted to Yu Sheng's watch.

I cursed in my heart: This bastard actually wanted to use this broken watch to deal with me? He really overestimated his own abilities.

If I hadn't promised you the rest of my life, I would have made you a cripple long ago.

Don't worry, sooner or later I will let you know that I, Cao Siye, am not someone you can afford to offend.

The more Cao Siye thought about it, the angrier he became. He really wanted to smash the watch.

But this was a disguised admission that he had used memory reading. He clenched his fists in annoyance, but did not want to give up.

Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind.

I want to erase the memory of my watch having infrared thermal sensing function from my mind for the rest of my life.

This way he can remain invisible and follow Yu Sheng at any time without being discovered.

As for what happens next, just find a way to prevent Yu Sheng from getting in touch with Lei Yaoyang.

Without giving it much thought, Cao Siye found the memory and cast a spell to delete it.

But what he didn't expect was that in the next second, his hand covering Yu Sheng's face seemed to be electrocuted, and the burning pain made him jump away immediately.

How could this happen? Cao Siye looked at Yu Sheng in disbelief, but the latter was still in a frozen state, without any reaction.

Looking back at the palm of my hand, it was slightly red from the burn.

Unconvinced, Cao Siye put his finger on her forehead and tried again.

In the end, he was still electrocuted.

This wasn't about just enduring the pain and getting through it, but he had no control over the fact that his spellcasting was forcibly interrupted.

Since deleting memories doesn’t work, what about extracting them?

Cao Siye raised his red burned fingers and placed them on Yu Sheng’s forehead again.

He tried to absorb the memories in her mind into his hands as a halo.

But what I got in return was still an electric shock.

This shocked Cao Siye so much that he took two steps back.

Suddenly, the space that was stagnant in time and space began to fluctuate and became a little unstable.

Cao Siye quickly teleported back to his seat, put on his previous look and expression, and restored everything to normal.

Yu Sheng didn't notice anything unusual at all and still stared at Cao Siye with a vigilant look on his face.

In her understanding, Cao Siye needs to touch the body in order to read the memory.

As long as she keeps a distance from Cao Siye, the secret between her and Lei Yaoyang will not be discovered.

Cao Siye certainly understood what Yu Sheng was thinking at the moment.

He pretended to be convinced by Yu Sheng, acted as if he was thinking deeply, then nodded and said:

"Don't worry, I have no plans to do anything. I will always abide by the agreement, and I hope you will do the same."

"Of course." Yu Sheng slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Okay, it’s getting late, and today is a workday, so I’ll assume that you start work today.

In order to help you get familiar with the job as quickly as possible, I have hired an assistant for you. You two can get to know each other first."

"assistant?"

"Yes, she has been waiting in the restaurant on the first floor." Cao Siye didn't wait for Yu Sheng to express his opinion, and then sent a voice message to the phone, "Come over now."

Since everything had been arranged and no one mentioned the fact that she had met Lei Yaoyang, Yu Sheng was too lazy to care about anything and just sat there waiting for the assistant to come.

Not long after, the sound of high heels came from a distance. The "dengdengdeng" footsteps sounded like someone was walking in a hurry, and Yu Sheng couldn't help but turn his head to look.

When the assistant appeared in his sight almost running, Yu Sheng felt that this person looked a little familiar.

When she took a few steps closer, Yu Sheng shouted in surprise: "Chen Yangzhi? Why is it you!"

Chen Yangzhi's eyes had been on Cao Siye. When she heard the shout, she was startled at first. When she saw it was Yu Sheng, she asked with a guilty look on her face:

"Xiaoshengsheng? Why are you here?"

"I..." Now it was Yu Sheng's turn to stammer, not knowing where to start.

Chen Yangzhi glanced at Cao Siye, then glanced at Yu Sheng, and his gossip spirit suddenly ignited. He said as if he had suddenly realized something:

"Oh, I see. Are you guys dating?"

"No."

Yu Sheng and Cao Siye said in unison that their tacit understanding seemed as if it had been rehearsed in advance.

The two were obviously a little surprised. After looking at each other in surprise, Yu Sheng quickly looked away, while Cao Siye said to Chen Yangzhi solemnly:

"I have officially hired Yu Sheng as the chairman of the Ai Sheng Charity Foundation. From now on, you will be her assistant."

"What?" Chen Yangzhi thought she had misheard. "You hired me? To be her assistant?"

"Any questions?"

"Hahaha..." Chen Yangzhi couldn't help laughing out loud. This pie-in-the-sky good thing actually fell on me? Being an assistant to my best friend, I must be slacking off every day.

She waved her hands quickly and said, "I have no problem, no problem at all, don't worry, I will do my job well and satisfy you."

"Just make her happy."

Seeing how familiar the two were, it was Yu Sheng's turn to be curious, "When did you two get to know each other?"

Chen Yangzhi winked at her and said, "Hey, well, let's talk about it later."

Cao Siye didn't add anything else and stood up. "Then I have something to do and I'll leave first. I'll trouble you with the next work, Assistant Chen."

Chen Yangzhi smiled like a flower: "Okay, President Cao, take care."

As he spoke, Cao Siye did not walk towards the elevator, but walked straight to Yu Sheng and stretched out his hand.

Yu Sheng thought he was doing something to her and backed away in fear.
