Sun Ling received this message and smiled indifferently, not expecting this idiot to be even quicker than she had imagined. Then, Sun Ling replied, "No problem, I can wait for you to figure it out." Gu Zheng, "Xiaoling, no, you don’t understand how I feel. I thought about it all night last night, and I think we might not be suitable for each other." Sun Ling, "What... What exactly are you trying to say? We’ve just gotten together." Gu Zheng, "I’m sorry, I... wasn’t serious." Gu Zheng, "So, from now on, let’s not see each other anymore. If you feel sad about it, I can compensate you." At that point, Dr. Sun naturally finished the job with jubilation, straight on to blocking and deleting in one clean sweep, feeling nothing but sheer bliss. Once this matter was resolved, Dr. Sun couldn’t keep the triumphant smile off her face, which inevitably caught the attention of Tang Ze and Xiao Yue. "What’s so funny? Share the joke with us?" So, Sun Ling shared the entire process of battling the scumbag. "Not bad, Dr. Sun, I didn’t expect that your love manual could come in handy for yourself," Tang Ze couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up, "And one more thing, not to speak out of turn, but that kid, he may look decent enough, but beyond the skin, can you even tell he’s human?" "Alright, Brother Tang Ze, let’s leave this matter behind, OK? Tomorrow I have to accompany the boss to an event in Lin City, so I need to start getting ready." On the other hand, after Gu Zheng knew he’d been blocked by Sun Ling, he felt it was all part of human nature, considering Sun Ling was different from all the other girls he had dated—she was truly pure and clean, with no past romances. Unsurprisingly, he felt bad that the first romantic relationship had ended by his own doing. Therefore, he thought of buying a gift and sending it to Peak, as his way of apologizing to Sun Ling. He just hoped the young lady wouldn’t be too disheartened, let alone go seek death or become overly despondent. Perhaps he was overthinking it. The boss hadn’t attended a public event in so long, and this time agreeing to appear for a promotional activity made Dr. Sun so happy she could hardly contain herself. Plus, knowing that Yan Shixiu would be the boss’s bodyguard, she, as a mere tool, was truly ecstatic. She wanted her fans to know, yet feared the fans finding out—this mix of intense and thrilling feelings was unparalleled. Talk about love? Isn’t reveling in the top-tier sweetness of fandom more delicious? Even if Sun Ling had never been in a romantic relationship, observing the men around her surely gave her an idea of what to look for in a partner. With someone like Yan Shixiu, a peerless good man out there, even if she couldn’t find someone just as good, finding someone fifty percent as good shouldn’t be difficult, right? Picking someone like Gu Zheng was akin to dumpster diving for a boyfriend. Late at night, Jinlan No.1 Courtyard. Shi Lan was packing the luggage she’d need for the next day and also prepared Yan Shixiu’s portion, but looking at Yan Shixiu’s monotonous wardrobe, Shi Lan felt he might need someone to send over a few sets of emergency clothes. When Yan Shixiu arrived home, he saw two suitcases at his feet. "From boarding the plane tomorrow, it’s a public event, Yan Shixiu, are you sure... you can resist not taking off your mask?" Shi Lan asked, hands on her hips, after finishing packing. "Although I don’t have martial skills like Huo Zhao, I can still protect my woman," Yan Shixiu confidently stated. Shi Lan looked at him, speechless. Was she afraid he couldn’t protect her? She was afraid he would impulsively take off the mask.
