Knowing that Pei Jin was about to confess his feelings, Chi Shibao remotely instructed Guangcheng's butler to convert 5000 US dollars into RMB according to the exchange rate and transfer it to Pei Jin's account.

Pei Jin did not refuse; during breaks, he would look at the flowers.

In the end, a bouquet of Fairy Kiss was chosen, with light-colored roses as the base and five pink peonies interspersed in the middle.

A bouquet of flowers, 1099, Pei Jin bought it without even blinking.

The location I filled in was the company's front desk.

Bai Tao went back to the basement and immediately removed her makeup and took a shower.

After the sound of water stopped, she stood in front of the half-length mirror in the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel, her hair still dripping wet.

She redid her makeup, extending her eyeliner, applying blush, and even adding false eyelashes and colored contact lenses.

I chose a very delicate first-love pink lipstick, applied it to my lips, and then gently blended the edges with my finger.

Then she stood in front of the mirror for a long time, rummaging through drawers and comparing each piece of clothing.

Wearing a floral dress?

That's too formal.

This one is too plain.

The new outfit isn't fitted enough.

She has a beautiful figure.

Finally, she chose a white fitted short-sleeved top and a purple acetate fishtail skirt, the hem of which flared out slightly at the calves, like a flower half-bloomed by the wind.

She wore nude high heels, twirled twice in front of the mirror, stopped, turned to the side, and then turned back.

So beautiful!

She blew kisses at the mirror a few times, took several selfies, and then sat on the sofa, waiting for Pei Jin.

My phone vibrated twice; it was a call from Pei Jin.

Bai Tao stared at the names flashing on the screen, as if something had gently pressed her heartbeat.

She rarely calls Pei Jin.

After confirming her own feelings, this fluttering sensation made her panic.

She took two deep breaths, steadied her voice, and then answered, making her voice as sweet as possible, with a slight upward inflection at the end.

"Feed? What's wrong?"

Pei Jin stood at the end of the corridor, and the moment he heard Bai Tao's voice, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

Bai Tao's voice sounded exceptionally alluring and pleasant on the phone, and he found it hard to resist.

He felt a tingling sensation on the side of his body where he was answering the phone, so he quickly switched the phone to the other ear.

"I have to work overtime tonight. I'll send you the restaurant location; you can go there first, okay?"

This was the first time Pei Jin had formally invited Bai Tao to dinner, and he couldn't even accompany her. Feeling a little apologetic, he quickly added, "..."

"The restaurant is somewhere between us, and I'm worried it'll be too late if I go home to be with you later, is that okay?"

That idiot.

Bai Tao smiled, unwilling to admit that her heart was racing.

"Okay, then send me your location."

"it is good."

The two were silent for a moment, neither wanting to hang up. Pei Jin spoke first.

"Then be careful later, and take a taxi if necessary."

"Okay, don't worry."

"Um."

Pei Jin's light laughter came from the other end of the phone. Bai Tao couldn't help but want to scream. Hehe, she couldn't help but laugh too. What should she do?

Pei Jin glanced down at the tips of his shoes. In the reflection of the glass door in front of him, he could see two male colleagues who were close friends lying together, secretly listening to him talk behind the door.

He smiled, and softened his voice even more.

"Shall I hang up now?"

"it is good."

The next second, Pei Jin turned around and saw Song Yu and Liu Hao grinning lewdly. Liu Hao mimicked his tone of voice from just moments before.

"Okay~ then~ I'll~ hang up~ now~"

The last syllable was dragged out in a meandering manner, the sound thin and long. Song Yu laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight and squatted down, clutching his stomach.

Laughing like that must be so painful!

"Brother Pei, you're so gentle! Even after you're in a relationship, you're still this gentle!"

"Um."

Pei Jin straightened his sleeves, his expression returning to its usual calm.

"Are you two very free? Have you gotten the results of the experiment yet? Has the research and development process been confirmed?"

As he walked toward the laboratory, Song Yu and Liu Hao immediately resumed their serious work, following behind him and answering his questions as they walked.

When Pei Jin turned into the lab, Song Yu mouthed to Liu Hao beside him that he had broken down.

The next second, Pei Jin's cold, emotionless voice came from inside.

"This set of data is incorrect, redo it."

Liu Hao was so angry that he punched Song Yu.

It was already 18:50 PM when I came out of the lab.

Pei Jin took off his gloves and casually threw them into the recycling bin. He didn't even have time to take off his white coat. As he walked, he unbuttoned his coat, and the sleeves were pulled down haphazardly and draped over his arms.

He walked quickly, and the receptionist at the door helped him put the flowers into his office.

He pushed open the door and saw the bouquet of pink flowers placed formally on the desk in the center of the office.

Pei Jin stood at the door, looking at the bouquet of flowers, his heart pounding uncontrollably, as if he were seeing a white peach.

He walked over, picked it up, and it was a huge bouquet of flowers; he could barely hold it with his arms outstretched.

The color is beautiful, like a white peach, a lovely light pink.

He picked up the flowers and started walking outside.

The corridor was filled with colleagues who had just finished a meeting, walking in in twos and threes.

Some were looking down at their phones, some were talking to each other, and some were tidying up documents when they looked up and saw Pei Jin running towards them.

Holding a large bouquet of flowers, she walked faster than usual, her shoulders slightly forward.

He didn't seem to have the same intimidating aura he usually exudes in meetings; he appeared less mature and composed.

The previously lifeless office atmosphere suddenly came alive.

Several young women at the front desk stood together excitedly, their voices lowered but unable to conceal their excitement.

"Ahhhhh!! So handsome and so innocent!"

"Yeah, he's really brave. With so many people around, isn't he afraid of being laughed at?"

"I'm so upset, who is his girlfriend?!"

Several married men stopped and stood at the edge of the corridor, glancing at Pei Jin's back with a knowing look in their eyes.

Someone chuckled softly and patted the person next to them on the shoulder.

Pei Jin neither turned around nor slowed down.

Bai Tao wore a fishtail skirt and for the first time felt that the skirt was inconvenient.

Her skirt was pulled up tightly, making it difficult for her to take long strides, and she ran awkwardly.

Pei Jin told her to wait at the restaurant, but she glanced at the time and realized there was still a long time to go, so she took a taxi on her own initiative and arrived at Pei Jin's company.

She sat in the back seat, watching the park gate gradually approaching outside the car window, her heart beating faster than she had expected.

Actually, it hadn't been long; she was just too eager to see Pei Jin.

The car stopped in front of the gate of the startup park; permission was required to go in.

Bai Tao got out of the car, afraid that Pei Jin would leave first, so she kept running in small, quick steps in her high heels.

Her skirt swept back and forth between her calves, and her heels tapped softly on the asphalt. She was a little out of breath from running, but she didn't stop.

Finally, when she saw the automatic door of Pei Jin's company, she slowly stopped, bent over to touch her knees, took a breath, and then straightened up.

She now understands the meaning of that sentence: "If I were to see you, I would definitely run."

The automatic door slowly opened, and a figure carrying flowers rushed out.

It's Pei Jin.

Everyone was looking at him, but he couldn't remember their expressions or eyes anymore.

He was only concerned about seeing Bai Tao soon, and Bai Tao was waiting for him.

The automatic door opened a little slowly, and he was in a hurry to get out. Just as he stepped out, he heard—

"Pei Jin!"

He looked up.

Bai Tao stood under a large, plump sycamore tree in the distance.

She was wearing a fitted white short-sleeved top and a purple fishtail skirt, the hem of which was slightly flared out, as if blown by the wind.

She smiled and waved at him, "Pei Jin!"

She waved at him twice, her hair sticking to her cheeks, but she didn't have time to brush it away.

Pei Jin looked at her and suddenly felt as if he had been waiting for this moment, waiting for Bai Tao to call his name.

He seemed to have confirmed Bai Tao's feelings.

Bai Tao felt the same way about him.
