Although Tianjin was not his base camp, it could not be helped that this great CEO had power and influence .
A call was all he needed to help them, who were unfamiliar with this city, find a place to eat .
At the restaurant, the two only merely said their names, and they were quickly led into a large room by a waiter .
Gazing around the room, which could seat over ten people, she could not help but grumble about this corrupt capitalist next to her .
"It's just us two; don't you think it's a little wasteful to get such a huge room?" She blinked at him .
"It's peaceful," he replied calmly .
"Tsk!" She nudged her lips and took a seat beside him .
Noting then that the waiter, who had led them into the room, was gone, she asked in confusion, "Aren't we ordering food?"
"The order has been placed . " He looked at her . "Why? Are you hungry already?"
"Nope!" She quickly shook her head . "Just found it weird . "
"Mhm . " He lightly hummed and took out a tablet PC to view some office files .
The man was so focused on his work that he did not even talk to her . This made her feel a little piqued .

"Aren't you here to spend time with me?" she mumbled with displeasure .
"Yes, I am . " He put down his tablet PC and softly explained things to her . "But I have a huge project coming up recently . "
"Oh, then get busy . " She pursed her lips and scolded herself inside, I shouldn't have gotten angry with him for no reason . He's a busy man, and with the bulk of work he has, it's not easy for him to be with me here in Tianjin . Don't be so willful!
"I'm not busy . I just need to settle these . " Although he did not know what she was thinking, he himself did not want to do work while they were together .
Hence, he quickly read through the files, emailed a reply, and kept his tablet PC away .
"Done . "
She blinked in surprise when he completed his work at lightning speed and felt a little touched .
At the same time, she started blaming herself . He's such a good boyfriend, so you can't be fierce with him next time!
"Ziming, what huge project is the company involved in these days?" she asked, feeling curious .
"Chenguang is bidding for a piece of land near the sea that is going to be used to build a resort . " He gave this explanation to her .
Only then did she grasp how huge this project was .
If Chenguang could secure this project, it would be enough for it to become one of the leading real estate companies in the capital .

Alas, this company was not alone in seeing the potential of this project .
"Wow! That's a really huge deal," she remarked .
"Yes, this piece of land has high potential," he agreed lightly .
"Then, both of us need to work with our all!"
Amid their discussion, the dishes were quickly served up .
When the mouth-watering cuisines were served, she turned to glare at the man .
"Why did you order so much?! We can't finish all this food!"
"… I didn't order it . "
He hastily transferred the blame on the person who had ordered the dishes, Du Wen .
"Then, let's have these leftovers in a to-go box! I saw quite a few beggars on the street earlier . "
She suggested while looking at this table full of food helplessly .

"Okay," he readily agreed .
After settling the issue of leftovers, she happily started having lunch .
This restaurant was actually part of a five-star hotel chain, so the dishes were truly delectable .
However, no matter how delicious this meal was, she still missed his cooking more .
"Is the food delicious?" He asked when he saw the happiness on her face .
Nodding, she quickly replied, "Yes!"
"Still…" She looked at him with a gaze filled with sincerity and anticipation . "I think your cooking is more to my liking, so I prefer eating it than this . "
She said that without expecting a reply from him, but who knew—
"Okay . Let's go to the supermarket tonight after you get off work . "
The man actually said that .
She was so shocked and stunned that her eyes widened infinitely .
"D-Don't you have something on?"
"I don't . " He calmly gave a curt reply .
To him, those were trivial matters compared to the stupid woman before him .
"But… But…"
Feeling conflicted inside, she was still trying to form her words, but the man already spoke .
"It's settled, then . We will go grocery-shopping after work," he said with finality .
"… Okay . "
After the very fulfilling lunch, she asked for a to-go box before she had him give the leftovers to the beggars on the street .
The man felt warm inside at her act of giving all the leftovers to the beggars on the street .
This was his first time asking for takeout, and the feeling was surprisingly good .
After they distributed the leftovers to the street beggars, she brought her 'little tail' back to company to resume work .
Hence, amid Jiaheng employees' whispers, the man kept her company for the rest of the day .
At 5 PM, the company's quitting time, when he saw that she was still reading some files, he decided to pull her up .
"Time to go . Get off work and go buy some groceries with me . "
Her lips twitched as she looked up at the man's handsome face . For some reason, she felt that he was a little excited .
