After several seconds, she replied, "…Why do you do something so dangerous? Without telling me."

Her voice came from her chest, muffled and low.

Ji Zihan lowered his head and looked at her, the corners of his mouth twitched, not knowing how to answer.

It's hard to say it's for her...

It was difficult for him to say such sensational words.

In addition, he believes that he is not the kind of man who tries to use his efforts to keep a woman by his side.

He did whatever he wanted to do, and he destroyed the park just to vent her anger.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "…This has nothing to do with you."

After hearing what he said, Bai Yuning's feeling of being moved came to an abrupt end.

She was silent for a moment, then laughed in her heart.

indeed.

She is just a small assistant. How can she be qualified to ask about the big president's affairs?

So she slowly loosened her hand and instinctively distanced herself from him.

Then he looked up, curled his lips and glanced at Ji Zihan.

"Yes, yes, yes. It really has nothing to do with me. You are the boss and I am your subordinate. What you want to do naturally has nothing to do with me, and you don't need to tell me."

After saying this, he retreated back to the bed as if nothing had happened.

Ji Zihan felt sad when he heard her say that and quickly grabbed her wrist.

He hurriedly said, "That's not what I meant."

Seeing that Bai Yuning's face was getting darker and darker, he softened his tone and explained to her in a low voice.

"I mean, as long as you're safe, you don't have to know these things."

Bai Yuning glanced at the big hand that was holding her, which had several blue veins bulging because of the force used.

The raised lines meander from the back of his hand up to his forearm, suggesting the man's panic.

A nameless emotion suddenly emerged in her heart.

She vaguely felt that the thin layer of window paper between her and Ji Zihan seemed to be just a little bit away from being broken.

The answer is almost at hand.

She raised her eyes, looked at him meaningfully, and asked seriously, "Why?"

Ji Zihan was stunned by her frank and straightforward look.

He saw that her dark eyes were a mixture of doubt, uncertainty, and anticipation burning deep inside.

The tall figure paused.

Should I tell her so hastily?

At such an ordinary moment that couldn't be more ordinary?

He stared at her and made no answer.

The two looked at each other, their eyes crossing in the air, like a silent game, or a confrontation.

Time seemed to stop at this moment, and the only sound I could hear was the faint sound of the night wind blowing against the balcony doors and windows.

But he is not ready yet.

After several minutes of silence, he slowly let go of her hand and said, "I have to get up early tomorrow."

The low, gentle tone made it hard to tell whether he was truly tired or just trying to escape.

Bai Yuning couldn't guess what this irrelevant reply meant.

But he suddenly came to his senses and realized that he had been a little abrupt.

So he quickly withdrew his hand and concealed his emotions.

He laughed awkwardly and said, "Oh, yes, it's a little late. You haven't taken a shower yet. Go quickly."

She also didn't expect that there would be times when she would have to go against her conscience and act like a considerate person.

Thinking of Song Zhe's request, he added another sentence.

"If you have a way, can you help find Xie Qingqing? I know it was her fault that I was sent to the park before, but she was also fooled by someone, so I can't blame her entirely."

"If she is really taken away by Meng Hai... I don't know what they will do to her... We are classmates, I..."

Before Ji Zihan finished listening, his brows furrowed.

He was already full of resentment towards Xie Qingqing because of that incident, but before he could settle the score, Bai Yuning actually asked him to help find someone.

It's just ridiculous and stupid.

The scar is healed and the pain is forgotten!

Seeing that Ji Zihan looked unhappy, Bai Yuning knew that this request was a bit difficult for him, so he didn't say anything more.

After all, Xie Qingqing was the culprit of this series of events, and she was not qualified to ask for his help.

"Well, I don't mean to force you, but...if you know any clues, just tell me."

"Yeah." Ji Zihan responded.

Without saying whether he agreed or not, he went into the bathroom, picked up his clothes.

After he closed the door, Bai Yuning lowered her head and sat on the edge of the bed, sighing.

She picked up the hair dryer to blow dry her hair, but she was absent-minded and distressed.

Her long black hair was blown into a mess, just like her mood at the moment.

How come I suddenly slipped up and asked that?

No matter what you ask, in the end you still get nothing answered.

It was obvious from Ji Zihan's surprised expression that he had already known a little bit of his own thoughts.

He wouldn't suspect that I was trying to force him to abdicate! Or was he in a hurry to get the position for money? What if he misunderstood me...

At this moment, she suddenly felt that her brain was not enough.

All kinds of messy emotions mixed together in my mind, and my head almost felt like it was about to explode.

As expected, just like how she saw people around her falling in love during her college days, love is too complicated.

She hadn't understood what they were worried about at the time, but now she finally understood a little.

This kind of trouble does not only come from one's own emotional fluctuations towards the other person, but more from the emotional impact that the other person's attitude brings to oneself.

It cannot be visualized and is hard to describe in words, and its main manifestation is upset.

When I watched romantic movies in the past, I would see the heroine picking flower petals behind the hero’s back, trying to confirm the hero’s feelings for her by counting the odd and even numbers of the petals.

Love? Or not?

She felt so naive and stupid at the time.

But now, she was in the same embarrassing situation.

The person who could give the answer was right in front of her, but she didn't have the courage to take the initiative to test it again.

What if a cruel answer awaits her at the end?

Breaking the window paper may not necessarily lead to a good result. If it is really broken, even the current relationship may not be able to be maintained.

She finally understood why the heroine didn't play straight with the hero, but instead chose to believe in the rose petals.

When people are unable to confirm something, they often need external objects to guide themselves in a direction, even if they know that it may not be the truth, it may just be a consolation.

Just like drawing lots, divination, and fortune-telling.

And now, I am in urgent need of a bunch of roses.

Bai Yuning was thinking about this randomly, in a daze, and almost felt that she was becoming a master of love.

When Ji Zihan came out, she had already fallen asleep on the bed with the turned-off hair dryer still in her hand.
