"So you're here, are you just full after eating?" After thinking about it, Li Youxue blinked and decided to choose the safer option two.

Li Zeyan gave her a sideways look, and skipped the question directly: "Let's go, I'll take you home."

"You can't blame me for that, it looks like he is going to become the God of Cooking alone." Li Youxue couldn't help turning her head and whispering to the system. "I've tried my best to cooperate with him, as you can see."

System: [...Okay, you are awesome, you have worked hard. 】

……

Fortunately, Shiguang Lane was not far from Li Youxue's residence, and the two arrived at their destination very quickly.After saying goodbye to Li Zeyan politely, Li Youxue took the key to open the door and threw herself on the sofa.

"So why did I make a trip? It's so troublesome and I get nothing." Li Youxue stared at the crystal chandelier above her head and muttered to herself.

[...But, this is the need of the plot...] The system is also a little embarrassing. 【Besides, the current plot development depends on your previous choices...】

"No, it's not that there is no gain." Li Youxue sat up with an idea. "At least I know that the store manager with many problems is indeed Li Zeyan."

【... Well, congratulations. ] The system, which clearly knew what branch she missed just now, could only reply with a little regret.

The phone that had been ignored by Li Youxue on the table for most of the night suddenly started to vibrate crazily to give it a sense of presence.

Li Youxue glanced at it, and after confirming that the note was [Sister Anna], she connected casually: "Hello, Sister Anna?"

"It's good news, Youxue!" Anna's seemingly mature and stable voice couldn't hide her excitement. "Huavel's investment has come down! [-] million! How did you do it!"

Li Youxue thought about it carefully, and asked the system inexplicably: "Didn't I already confirm that it was [-] million? Did I forget to tell them?"

[Yes. 】The system painfully admitted her statement.

Li Youxue patted her forehead to apologize, then cleared her throat, and solemnly said into the microphone, "This is what I should do, Sister Anna, after all... this company was left to me by my father."

"Youxue..." Anna was really touched and choked up slightly. "I knew that you would not disappoint your father and us old employees."

Li Youxue calmly listened to Anna's sobs from time to time, and was thinking about how to comfort her when she heard the door knock three times rhythmically.

After a few comforting words before hanging up the phone, Li Youxue walked over and looked out the door through the cat's eyes——

Fine black hair like ink, fair and handsome face, and those deep purple eyes that looked casually looking elsewhere...Of course, all of these are not as eye-catching as his white coat.

Li Youxue's heart skipped a beat, she stretched out her hand and opened the door: "Xu Mo, why are you here?"

"Youxue?" Xu Mo was much more surprised than she was, and opened his eyes slightly, as if he had no idea whose door he was knocking on. "So you live here."

"Of course." Li Youxue replied without hesitation. "This is my home."

"What a coincidence," Xu Mo didn't care about her slightly hostile look, but smiled happily. "It seems that we will be neighbors next time."

Li Youxue paused, and immediately opened the door wider, looking behind Xu Mo - the silver-white anti-theft door, which was exactly the same as her house, was opening, as if to prove that Xu Mo was telling the truth.

"...It's really a coincidence." Li Youxue answered with a blank expression after weighing her complicated emotions.

"No matter how small the probability of something is, it might happen." Xu Mo looked in a good mood, with a smile on his eyes and brows. "Things with less probability, once they happen, will give people a sense of destiny, won't they?"

Li Youxue didn't want to pick up on this routine, so she looked at him seriously: "My house is too messy, I don't want you to come in as a guest, because that would make me appear to be unfamilyable and unvirtuous."

[Xu Mo's favorability +18! 】

Xu Mo laughed immediately: "Well, I understand, you've been very busy recently...Speaking of which, how is Huarui's investment going?"

"I've got it," Li Youxue replied neatly, and subconsciously straightened her waist to add, "This is my strength."

Xu Mo's smile seemed to flow from his eyes: "No wonder, you look much more relaxed... Then, do you want to have dinner together to celebrate?"

"Celebrate?" Li Youxue frowned inexplicably. "Celebrate my company being invested? But what does it matter to you?"

"But I want to celebrate for you." Xu Mo stared at her and said softly. "—and, also, to celebrate that we've become neighbors ever since."

Li Youxue held her breath for a while, and responded sincerely: "But I'm not hungry at all."

"I know." The corners of Xu Mo's mouth curled up, as if he enjoyed chatting with her. "So what I mean is—tomorrow, can I invite you to dinner?"

Li Youxue looked at him intently, making sure that he was serious about what he said, so she nodded, "Okay, if you agree to eat, I'll decide what to eat—I'm a bit picky eater."

Xu Mo naturally agreed to her request with a patient smile: "I will contact you tomorrow."

After a brief greeting, Li Youxue closed the door and stood with her back against the door, thoughtful.

【My Lady Queen, you seem to be in a low mood... I mean, about tomorrow's meal. 】The system hesitated to initiate a conversation.

Li Youxue thought for a while, and she agreed with this statement in a different way: "Xu Mo gave me a very strong feeling of uneasiness, although he is indeed very good at chatting, flirting with girls, and very flirtatious."

[So that's how it is,] The system suddenly realized, [So, you follow the female intuition and keep a distance from him? 】

"That's right." Li Youxue concluded decisively. "However, it's useless to think too much... As expected, I'd better go to bed quickly, and all staff will have a meeting to supervise the production early in the morning."

【...Okay, as long as you are happy. ] Her sudden sleep behavior frustrates the system that wants to probe her.

……

The next day's editing and co-production took almost a whole day. When Xu Mo called, Li Youxue was still in Wei Zhaisheng's editing room, staring at the screen with Yang Jie and Zhuo Wei.

The sound of the mobile phone in vibration mode is not loud, but it is very clear in a room where only the sound of the mouse and keyboard is left.Li Youxue gestured to Yang Jie to answer the phone, and after getting a nod, she exited in peace and went to the corridor to answer the phone.

"Are you in the company?" Xu Mo's voice was gentle, with the charm unique to intellectuals.

"Well, I'm here." Li Youxue had a guess in her heart. She walked towards the window and looked downstairs.

Sure enough, Xu Mo had already arrived, just downstairs.This time he tactfully changed out of his white coat, and changed to a light blue shirt with an off-white sweater. When he looked up and smiled at her, he actually had a sense of tranquility.

"I'll wait for you." Xu Mo stared at her from afar, the corners of his mouth curved into a soft and pleasant arc. "You can take your time, I'm not afraid of waiting."

Li Youxue hung up the phone with a complicated mood, opened the door and went back, briefly explained to Wei Zhaisheng and the others before going downstairs.

She slowed down her pace very slowly, and when she reached Xu Mo downstairs, almost 10 minutes had passed.

As he said, Xu Mo did not appear anxious, but instead looked her up and down with a smile on his face: "It seems that you are not in a hurry, that's good."

"Since I know you'll be waiting here, there's no need for me to worry." Li Youxue rolled her eyes. "Could it be that you are a rush grass, which will disappear when the wind blows?"

Her blunt and even blunt joke won Xu Mo a smile that he couldn't help.

And, the system couldn't wait for a prompt: [Xu Mo's favorability +17!Xu Mo's affection for you has risen to LEVEL-8! 】

Li Youxue didn't listen carefully, her eyes were fixed on Xu Mo - to be exact, Xu Mo's shoulder.On his left shoulder, a snow-white gardenia petal fell.

Subconsciously, she took a step forward, and slapped Xu Mo's left shoulder under Xu Mo's slightly surprised gaze.

——She didn't let go of her strength at all, Xu Mo's body was shaken by that slap.

Silently, the petal fell to the ground, losing its last chance to struggle.

Li Youxue glanced sideways at the pitiful white snow on the ground, then she bent her eyes and looked at Xu Mo with a smile: "Your body is covered with petals."

Xu Mo was stunned for two seconds before showing a wry smile.

"It was my fault," Xu Mo sighed softly, but there was some light in his deep purple eyes. "Your reaction is always beyond my guess."

Li Youxue took Xu Mo's reaction seriously and didn't take it seriously. She felt that if she was really gentle and gentle to help Xu Mo pick the petals, she would not be her, so she naturally changed the subject: "No Do you say celebrate? What to eat?"

"I'm not picky, I can eat anything." Xu Mo lowered his eyes slightly, and after a brief pause, he smiled. "What do you want to eat?"

"So," couldn't help but smile, Li Youxue asked him very sincerely, "Would you like to visit my house and try my cooking?"

As if he hadn't expected her to invite her like this, Xu Mo opened his eyes wide in surprise, looked at her intently for two seconds, and then nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'm honored...Let me guess, maybe I'm the first A member of the opposite sex who tastes your cooking?"

"Well, congratulations, you are right." Li Youxue nodded solemnly. "This is a grace from me, remember to thank you when the time comes."

Now there was a smile in Xu Mo's eyes, and his mood changed.

——Directly reflected in the prompts that followed from the system: [Xu Mo's favorability +32! 】

But the role of the system is not over yet, it is a little panicked, and its tone is trembling: [Are you trying to poison Xu Mo to prevent problems before they happen...]

"That's not the case," Li Youxue glanced at Xu Mo who was walking with her beside her, and smiled secretly. "Just a harmless little joke."

【...Is that really a joke level? 】The system doubts this. [It feels like it will directly threaten Xu Mo's life... By the way, have you really cooked? 】

"Not at all." Li Youxue answered bluntly.

【……really. ] The system sighed, and couldn't help but start mourning for Xu Mo.
