Lu Shan’s words concealed deeper meanings, which made Shen Xi grow a bit cautious about Gu Chen.

Gu Chen’s eyes reflected a hint of amusement. “President Lu, you jest. We’re friends who get along well, so there’s no need to worry about offending each other.’

Gu Chen’s gaze softened as he turned to Shen Xi, speaking with sincerity, “Moreover, even if Xi did something to offend me, I wouldn’t mind. As long as she’s willing, she can offend me as much as she likes. After all, true friends are hard to come by, and I value our relationship.”

Shen Xi mustered a forced smile and subtly averted her eyes from Gu Chen, a gesture that left him feeling somewhat disappointed.

Qian Tong chimed in, “Miss Shen Xi, can you spend more time with our Young Master Gu? He doesn’t have many friends, and his family consists of just a handful of people. No one has visited him until now. Yesterday, you two went through some hardship together, which makes your bond special, doesn’t it?”

Gu Chen lowered his gaze and softly reprimanded Qian Tong, “Why are you

saying that? Xi has her own matters to attend to.”

Shen Xi nodded repeatedly, addressing Qian Tong, “That’s right. I’ve been quite busy lately, and most importantly, I can’t be of much help here.”

She then turned to Gu Chen and said, “You take care of yourself, try to get discharged soon. I’ll come to visit you again.”

Gu Chen had only declined out of courtesy, but Shen Xi rode on his response to excuse herself without any ambiguity, much to Qian Tongs surprise.

Qian Tong silently mourned for Gu Chen, as it was clear that Shen Xi held no special affection for him.

Upon hearing Shen Xi’s words, Gu Chen felt a twinge of disappointment but managed to smile and replied, “Alright, I’ll take good care of myself and look forward to your visit.”

In the searing intensity of Gu Chen’s gaze upon Shen Xi, she felt the heat and quickly grasped her parents’ hands, saying, “Mom, Dad, weren’t you about to discuss the matter of those three thieves with Gu Chen?”

Shen Yan handed a file to Gu Chen and continued, “We’ve located those thieves, and our team has investigated. They appear to be just petty criminals. Do you have any additional information to share, considering you’re the primary victim in this case?”

“Since President Shen has already handled the investigation, we should go along with your findings. I trust your judgment,” Gu Chen said as he gently pushed the file away.

“We’ll head back home for now. We express our gratitude once again for President Gu e s courageous actions,” Shen Yan maintained his professional smile as he spoke.

“Don’t mention it. Qian Tong, could you escort President Shen and his family out?” Gu Chen turned to Qian Tong.

“No need, it’s just a short walk. You should take care of President Gu,” Shen Yan declined and left with Lu Shan and Shen Xi.

As Shen Xi disappeared from sight, the beaming smile on Gu Chen’s face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold and chilling expression.

Shen Yan’s family’s attitude seemed to imply suspicion of Gu Chen’s involvement in the matter.

Although Gu Chen knew it was true, he could not help but feel uncomfortable. No one should come between him and Shen Xi.

Shen Xi did not go home. Instead, Lu Shan brought her to the Lu Corporation, drawing the attention of many employees along the way.

“Could that person with pink hair be Assistant Shen? It’s a bit flashy, don’t you think?” someone whispered.

“But she looks quite attractive. Beautiful people can pull off anything, even pink hair.”

Hearing the chatter, Shen Xi wished she could find a place to hide.

Once inside the elevator, Shen Xi turned to Lu Shan, her eyes pleading. “Mom, can I take a day off today? I want to dye my hair back.”

Lu Shan looked at Shen Xi’s pink hair and said disapprovingly, “Isn’t it quite nice? Why would you want to change it back? Besides, your aunt did this for you. If you change it back, she’ll want to take you to get it done again next time. It’s too much trouble. Just leave it as it is.”

Shen Xi had not expected that her family would be more adaptable to trendy styles than she was.

In the afternoon, Shen Xi was overwhelmed by a pile of documents as usual.

Feeling miserable, she took the materials and headed straight to find Lu Lin.

At the “Rongying” drama set, while taking a break and awaiting Shen Xi’s visit, Lu Lin noticed a pink head peeking out. He was about to tease, but then the pink head turned, causing Lu Lin to spew out his drink in surprise..
