Cook was polite and reserved when talking to Su Yimo, but his attitude changed when he saw Ning Xi. Almost immediately, his tone turned passionate and he gave her a big hug the moment he saw her.
Ning Xi had stayed in America for four years, so she was used to their way of greeting people. Returning his hug, she exclaimed, "Long time no see!"
"Oh, my dear, why…" Cook suddenly gaped at her in surprise.
Ning Xi blinked at him. "What is it?"
"My dear, you look more beautiful than before!" Cook enthused.
Ning Xi laughed. "Dear Director, aren’t you good at giving girls compliments?"
Cook looked at her genuinely. "Oh, no, no, you really look more beautiful now. Wait, specifically, you’ve got more charisma. Tell me, are you in love?"
Ning Xi was floored. What was happening? Did this guy have some special eyes?
"Director Cook, you’re really good with jokes!" Ning Xi carefully glanced at Ling Zhizhi, casually making up an excuse.
