Lou Yuming's dark eyes narrowed into a straight line.
He gazed at her intently, making Song Xi feel a bit uncomfortable, so she quickly got up.
"I'm leaving now."
A complex emotion flickered in the man's eyes behind her.
Song Xi went directly to the company but found Ge Baitao wasn't there. She then learned from the assistant that Ge Baitao was sick!
She didn't even know her friend was hospitalized!
Song Xi felt guilty and was about to go to the hospital to see her when a delivery person suddenly arrived, saying, "Same-city express, may I ask who Ms. Song is?"
Song Xi was stunned: "...Me."
Opening the package, Lou Yuming had actually sent her phone!
He was truly... going through with the act, very thorough!
Just then, Ge Baitao called: "Hello?"
Song Xi cleared her throat and pretended to be natural, "Hello, Taozi."
Ge Baitao breathed a sigh of relief on the other end and asked directly, "Where are you?"
"I'm at the company."
"I'll be there soon!"
She hung up after saying this impetuously.
Song Xi felt guilty, thinking Ge Baitao was coming to confront her.
But she couldn't think of a good excuse and wanted to slip away. Suddenly, she saw a tall young man wearing a mask, followed by his agent, walking into the conference room.
"Sister Xi, President Ge will be here soon. Please go to the conference room first," a staff member reminded her.
Song Xi was bewildered. Was it necessary to discuss this in the conference room? And with others present!
She was terrified, not knowing what Ge Baitao was up to.
Upon entering the conference room, the young man's agent immediately greeted her proactively.
"Sister Xi!"
Hearing the commotion, the young man slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with disdain.
Song Xi, not understanding, sat opposite him and nodded slightly, "Hello."
The young man snorted inwardly.
Putting on a show.
The air was awkward, very awkward, and no one spoke.
Song Xi didn't know what was happening, only that the agent girl kept giving her apologetic glances, which made Song Xi even more perplexed.
?
After an unknown period, Ge Baitao finally arrived.
She must have run, her forehead covered in sweat, panting. She had even taken off her jacket and draped it over her shoulders. She looked completely different from her usual meticulous, elite CEO demeanor.
"President Ge."
Seeing Ge Baitao, the agent and the young man stood up simultaneously.
Song Xi also prepared to stand, but Ge Baitao suddenly reached out to her, "Xixi, get me a tissue."
Song Xi paused and handed her a tissue.
Such an intimate address and mutual trust only made the man's displeasure more intense.
"Everyone, sit," Ge Baitao said concisely and directly asked, "Liu Hao, do you know why I asked you to come to the company? Did Susan tell you?"
Susan was the agent next to him, her face full of difficulty.
"President Ge, I..."
It seemed she hadn't.
Ge Baitao wasn't angry, she just threw the text message from the stalker at him, her tone ice-cold: "Look at what you've done!"
Liu Hao didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, but when he saw the content on the screen, his face changed, and he vehemently denied it: "I didn't!"
Ge Baitao slammed her hand on the table with a "bang": "You didn't! Then tell me what this text message means!"
Liu Hao took off his mask, and Song Xi finally saw his face.
She didn't recognize him, but he was quite handsome.
But what were they talking about? She couldn't understand a word.
Liu Hao tried to argue, "President Ge, I really didn't say anything! How can you believe such petty tricks from a stalker?"
"?" Ge Baitao: "Do you think I, your boss, look foolish? I wouldn't waste my time with you without solid evidence!?"
