Just a few minutes after Xiao Yichen and Xu Yanxi passed by, the colleagues at the Eastern Empire had already snapped photos. The images were rapidly being shared and discussed, generating gossip about their president.
Xiao Yichen took Xu Yanxi to an upscale restaurant, where they conversed while eating.
Xiao Yichen's face showed little emotion. He simply inquired briefly about Xu Yanxi's situation abroad. Meanwhile, Xu Yanxi, in her heart, was incredibly happy.
"Chen, I won't leave this time. I want to stay by your side," she exclaimed joyfully.
Upon hearing her words, Xiao Yichen didn't share her enthusiasm. He contemplated the matter and changed the subject. "Do you have any plans for your future career?"
