Su Ting watched Gu Dai's flustered departure, rubbing his head in irritation. He blamed himself for forgetting to bring a change of clothes into the bathroom, which inadvertently frightened Sis.
He wanted to apologize to Gu Dai, but as he took a step forward, he hesitated and withdrew his foot.
After returning to her room, Gu Dai took a bath and lay in bed, her mind involuntarily replaying the scene she had just witnessed.
She had always seen Su Ting as a younger brother, even after his confession of love, dismissing it as childish naivety. But now, she realized he had grown up; he was no longer a child, but a man.
Gu Dai pulled the blanket over her head, trying to dismiss her thoughts, "I have to work tomorrow, no time for this mess!"
The next day, at the Gu Group.
While working in her office, Gu Dai was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in," she said, looking up.
