After Su Ting departed, Gu Dai received a call from Shi Nuan.

“Daidai, I heard you’re resting today. How about we go out for a stroll?” Shi Nuan suggested, followed by a chuckle, “Daidai, if you’re on a date with Su Ting, then…”

Gu Dai coughed softly to cut off Shi Nuan’s words, eagerly proposing, “Su Ting went to work. Let’s go shopping.”

Shi Nuan eagerly agreed, “Sure, sure.”

Having no particular needs, their outing was merely for afternoon tea and a chat.

Shi Nuan’s eyes sparkled as she gazed at Gu Dai, “Daidai, you’re glowing. You must be getting along well with Su Ting lately?”

Though it was a question, the assertion was evident in her tone.

A blush crept onto Gu Dai’s face.

Seeing Gu Dai’s reaction, Shi Nuan covered her mouth, laughing, her shoulders shaking.

Gu Dai looked down, then with a smile, said, “Nuannuan.”

Shi Nuan, sensing something amiss, asked quietly, “What’s the matter, Daidai?”

Gu Dai patted Shi Nuan’s shoulder, “How have you and my third brother been getting along?”

The blush on Gu Dai’s face transferred to Shi Nuan as she averted her gaze, “We…”

As images flooded her mind, Shi Nuan found herself unable to voice her thoughts, quickly changing the subject, “Daidai, I’ve heard that Zhou Corporation has been troubling your company lately. Do you need my help to deal with them?”

Gu Dai shook her head, “Su Ting and I have already taken action against Zhou Lin’s projects. He couldn’t bear it and ended up in the hospital. He might still be investigating who targeted his company.”

Shi Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, “In that case, let’s spare him this time. He’s gotten off easy.”

Gu Dai’s gaze remained intense as she pressed Shi Nuan, “Nuannuan, you haven’t told me about you and my brother.”

Shi Nuan tried to divert the conversation again.

Gu Dai, seeing through Shi Nuan’s intentions, reminded, “Nuannuan, you’ve already asked me.”

Shi Nuan, avoiding eye contact, shyly admitted, “Meng Zhi and I… we’re together now.”

Gu Dai’s eyes lit up.

Shi Nuan, blushing, recounted her recent times with Meng Zhi.

Gu Dai listened with satisfaction, nodding and laughing in agreement. By the time their conversation ended, they had finished their desserts.

Stepping out of the private room, Shi Nuan exclaimed in surprise, “Daidai, isn’t that Su Ci over there?”

Gu Dai looked and nodded, “Yes, that’s him.”

Su Ci was talking to the restaurant manager. Feeling the gaze upon him, he looked over, relaxed his furrowed brows upon seeing Gu Dai, and approached with a gentle smile.

Su Ci chuckled, “Daidai, are you here for afternoon tea?”

Gu Dai nodded, then inquired, “And you?”

Su Ci explained, “I recently opened this restaurant. I’m here to check on things.”

After stating this, he asked for their opinion on the food.

Gu Dai complimented, “Delicate taste, sweet but not overwhelming.”

Shi Nuan nodded in agreement, “Really delicious!”

Su Ci smiled, “That’s good to hear. I was planning to invite you after things settled a bit, but it seems my plan was too late.”

Gu Dai replied, “Your restaurant has already become famous in our circle. Many say it’s delicious, so I couldn’t wait to come.”

As she finished speaking, her phone beeped.

Zheng Ming: The tech team found a small unresolved issue in the project.

Gu Dai: I’ll be there soon.

Shi Nuan, noticing Gu Dai’s expression, asked, “Daidai, what happened?”

Gu Dai, suppressing her irritation, explained, “Zhou Corporation caused some minor issues before; one hasn’t been dealt with yet. I need to head back to the company.”

Su Ci, hearing “Zhou Corporation,” showed concern.

Gu Dai nodded, then bid farewell to Su Ci, “I must go now. We’ll catch up another time when I’m free.”

Su Ci responded warmly, “Alright.”

Watching Gu Dai leave, Su Ci’s gaze lowered, hiding the disappointment within.

Their paths were diverging further and further apart..
