Everyone has their own secret thoughts that they don't want others to see.

So does Shen Xian.

She had tried her best to hide it, but she was still discovered by Gu Chen. Her anger was just to cover up her inner fragility.

Gu Chen went out in the afternoon and did not let Shen Xian drive him.

Shen Xian was busy with his duties in the office, but he couldn't concentrate.

She bit the back of her hand, and the little pain made her perception clearer, and her brain began to think normally.

On the computer was a bunch of data and information sent by Zhang Chi. She carefully sorted and summarized it and found that it was all information from overseas companies, which was not within the scope of Shenfei's business.

Just as Shen Xian was immersed in the sky full of data, there was a knock on the door, and Chen Nuo came in with a cup of milk tea.

"Shen Xianxian, I ordered milk tea for everyone. This is yours."

Chen Nuo's voice was soft and cheerful, and he looked at Shen Xian behind the computer with a smile.

Shen Xian raised his head and ran into Chen Nuo's smiling eyes, covering up his upset, "You don't want to lose weight?"

"If you don't let it go any longer, you will have to enjoy your life to the fullest!"

Chen Nuo smiled and inserted the straw into Shen Xian's place, "Let me tell you, the milk tea in this restaurant is the best I have ever tasted. You must taste it well."

Chen Nuo knew that Shen Xian rarely drank this kind of thing, so he highly recommended it.

It’s hard to refuse such kindness.

Shen Xian took the milk tea and took a sip, "Well, it's delicious."

Chen Nuo was like a child who had received the approval of an adult, smiling happily. He did not leave, but stood at Shen Xian's table without hesitating to speak.

"Shen Xian..."

"Um?"

Shen Xian looked at her and took another sip of milk tea with a calm expression.

"Mr. Gu is out," Chen Nuo said.

"Ok, I know."

Here, Shen Xian has developed the ability to "identify people by listening to their footsteps". Gu Chen's footsteps are unique on the 33rd floor and are easy to identify.

Seeing that Shen Xian's expression was as usual, Chen Nuo couldn't help it after all.

"Mr. Gu said something about you because of what happened yesterday?"

Shen Xian said nothing.

"I obviously went to the police station with you yesterday, why did I have to reprimand you today? Isn't it a good thing to act bravely for a just cause? Why did he say something to you?"

Shen Xian tightened his grip on the milk tea cup and looked up at Chen Nuo, who was leaning on the table.

"You... saw everything yesterday?"

"No, I happened to see you guys going downstairs when I came out. I also learned from passers-by that you had a battle of wits with the thug. Fortunately, you were not injured."

Chen Nuo spoke with a bit of indignation, as if if Shen Xian was injured, she would pull him out and beat him up.

Hearing what Chen Nuo said, Shen Xian felt relieved. It would be better if he didn't see it.

It's not that she didn't know what state she would be in later, it was just a lucky hope. Everyone who saw it thought she was just scared, but this luck obviously did not include Gu Chen.

If there were more Chen Nuo, how could she keep pretending on the 33rd floor?

"It's not about this today." Shen Xian didn't want to deceive Chen Nuo, but he couldn't explain too much.

"That's good." Chen Nuo was polite and did not continue to ask. In her heart, she always felt that Shen Xian was different from them.

Although Shen Xian is also an assistant, and his status is roughly similar to that of a secretary, he never sees the awe and fear of subordinates towards the head of a department, nor does he see the disadvantage of being subordinate to others that is unique to a subordinate.

She seems humble and sincere, and can talk to her superiors on an equal footing naturally. Sometimes she even shows an admirable calmness even unconsciously.

I can’t put it bluntly, it’s very strange and complicated.

Taking advantage of this time, the two chatted about work matters for a while. Shen Xian's mood, which was disturbed by Gu Chen, finally stabilized during the conversation. After Chen Nuo left, she calmed down and sorted out the information at hand. Sent to Gu Chen's email.

Shen Xian knew that he was overly emotional just now. He didn't know if Gu Chen was angry, but he knew that he had good intentions.

Shen Xian instinctively rejected this kindness.

She didn't even think about apologizing to Gu Chen for this. In her heart, Gu Chen might be the initiator.

I'm not sure, so I don't want to waste my time thinking about whether to apologize or not.

No one else said anything about this, but Ma Qi was worried about the quarrel between Shen Xian and Gu Chen.

When Shen Xian went to get water, he waited there specially.

"Shen Xian! You can stay on the 33rd floor because of Mr. Gu."

"so what?"

Regarding this issue, Ma Qi had struggled with it a long time ago. Shen Xian thought that after such a long time, she had passed the struggle period and never thought about it being mentioned again.

"So the person you should thank the most is Mr. Gu." Ma Qi looked at Shen Xian angrily, why did she look so calm and calm.

"I know, I'm very grateful to him." Shen Xian agreed with Ma Qi's statement and nodded truthfully.

She was indeed very grateful to Gu Chen. She had already expressed this when she first decided to stay, and Gu Chen also knew it.

"you!"

Ma Qi gritted her teeth angrily. From the beginning of the conversation, Shen Xian had always been indifferent. This attitude made her very unhappy, but Shen Xian's answer was correct, which made her feel like she had been punched on soft cotton.

Shen Xian was puzzled and stared at Ma Qi, waiting for what she wanted to say next.

"Do you know what you are doing?"

Ma Qi looked at Shen Xian without words, and left gracefully on high heels after leaving these words, leaving Shen Xian with a confused look on his face.

"It's okay, leave her alone." Chen Nuo came in with a cup and whispered after watching Ma Qi go away, "She just thinks you shouldn't quarrel with Mr. Gu, and she has no other intentions."

So that's it. After listening to Chen Nuo's words, Shen Xian suddenly realized that this was what Ma Qi's meaningless conversation meant. Then why didn't she say it directly?

Fortunately, she didn't say it directly, otherwise Shen Xian might not have answered her so calmly and sincerely.

She didn't want to be taught how to behave and do things after living for more than twenty years.

Especially on this matter, none of them understood, and no one could ask her to act according to their ideas.

In the next few days, everything went as usual. Gu Chen didn't seem to be dissatisfied with Shen Xian because of the previous incident, nor did he mention asking her to see a psychiatrist.

Everything returned to calm, as if what happened before had not happened.

Zhou Mu was more diligent in contacting Shen Xian. He would send at least one or two messages every day, sharing some of his daily life, or asking Shen Xian if they could have dinner and drinks together or go to the boxing gym during off work hours.

When Shen Xian is busy, he doesn't bother to reply, and he won't follow up.

On this day, Shen Xian agreed to Zhou Mu's invitation and went to a nearby music bar for a drink after work. Zhou Mu said before coming that he would bring someone over. Shen Xian didn't think much about it, thinking that he might bring his teammates over, too. No questions asked.

But he never thought that what he brought here was a young and energetic girl. This surprised Shen Xian.

But it’s okay, Zhou Mu has been alone for so many years, and he hasn’t seen him get close to any girl. The boss is quite big, so it’s good to get in touch with more girls when the tasks are not so heavy.

When Shen Xian arrived, the two of them were sitting on a high stool and chatting intently. Zhou Mu looked very serious.

He is really a straight man. Does he need to be so serious when dating a girl? Shen Xian thought and walked over.

Zhou Mu caught a glimpse of her figure out of the corner of his eye and immediately stopped talking. A smile appeared on Jun Yi's face and he waved to Shen Xian who came over.

Shen Xian smiled meaningfully at him and turned to the girl who came with her, "How about introducing me? Captain Zhou."

"Senior, hello! My name is Shu Yan." As soon as Shen Xian finished speaking, the girl stood up and stretched out her hand, introducing herself crisply.

The girl had her bangs high and a ponytail with two pigtails on each side of the ponytail. Her brows and eyes were full of sunshine, she had a bright smile, and there were two playful pear dimples at the corners of her mouth.

She wore a black leather jacket, black boots, and a long black windbreaker, which made her look cool.

"Senior?"

Shen Xian was confused, she didn't know this girl.

"I graduated from the same school as you, but my major is different. I'm two years younger than you."

Zhou Mu explained with a smile and already pulled the chair out to Shen Xian as he spoke.

"Okay, hello, my name is Shen Xian." Shen Xian responded politely.

"I know you, Senior Sister Shen is very famous in school!" Shu Yan smiled proudly, as if she was honored to be in the same school as Shen Xian.

"Me? Famous?" Shen Xian smiled angrily. What kind of name could she have? In the past few years, she had almost lost contact with the past, and she didn't think many people still remembered her existence.

Shu Yan curled her lips and looked at Zhou Mu. Her beautiful dimples made her look very cute. She was pure and heroic, which gave her a very special temperament.

"This is what we call, if you are no longer in the world, the world will still have your legend."

Zhou Mu raised his eyebrows in explanation and raised his hand to call the waiter to take the order.

"Seven Colors Rainbow should be good. The name gives people a feeling of strength after the storm. Sister Shen, do you want to try it?"

Shu Yan was very active. Seeing Shen Xian looking at the list hesitantly, she volunteered to recommend it.

"Okay." Shen Xian doesn't drink cocktails very much on weekdays and doesn't know much about it, so he simply accepts her recommendation.

Zhou Mu ordered a glass of Tequila Sunrise, while Shu Yan ordered a glass of Paradise Kiss.

They all sound like very meaningful wine names. Shen Xian rarely comes to the bar and doesn't know what the specific wine is.

The three of them were chatting, and the atmosphere was lively thanks to Shu Yan. Her voice was soft and pleasant, and she sounded like a midnight radio host.

"Look at these wine names, you don't know how they came up with them, but you see each name has another meaning. Heaven's Kiss feels like commemorating the lost things, and Tequila Sunrise feels like welcoming A new thing, the colorful rainbow is more like rebirth after suffering. It sounds so good, each wine name corresponds to a state of mind..."

"Well, so people who drink drink not only for the sake of drinking, but also for expressing their emotions through drinking." Zhou Mu continued what Shu Yan said.

Shu Yan nodded in agreement and asked Shen Xian: "Senior Sister Shen, if you could use one wine name to describe your state of mind, which one do you think is more fitting?"

"I don't understand wine."
