It has been several days since Shen Ye left. Su Li has not been idle during this time; she has kept herself constantly busy. She feels that only by throwing herself entirely into her work can she temporarily stop thinking about him.
Early this morning, Su Li arrived at the group as usual with Lin Qing and Gao Yu. As she walked into the office, she spotted Wuchen standing quietly before the floor-to-ceiling window. His tall, upright silhouette, bathed in the morning light, carried a hint of being detached from the world.
Su Li was in quite a good mood today. Seeing Wuchen, she looked surprised and teased, "Wuchen, you really are a model worker, coming in this early every single day. I made a special effort to get up early this morning, thinking I’d arrive half an hour ahead of schedule. I expected to get here before you, sit in your chair, and leisurely watch you walk in for work. But no, the moment I step in, you’re already here again. Tell me, did you even leave last night? I really have to hand it to you. You are the president of the Su Group, after all; you don’t need to work this hard, and you don’t have to clock in like a regular employee every day. You have plenty of free time in the evening—you could be busy with your own affairs instead of wearing yourself out like this."
