"Speaking so poetically, did I rember wrong? You're not a professor of environntal chemistry but a literary professor? Oh, why has your face suddenly turned red? You haven't found 'that one ladle' already, have you?" Tang Yahui teased Wu Yili, suddenly noticing that her fair face had flushed unexpectedly. Her gaze was clearly distracted, and she couldn't help expressing her astonishnt as if she had discovered a new continent.
"Enough, enough, stop talking nonsense! Let's talk business. An elder is celebrating their birthday, and I need to buy a piece of jade. Help choose one," Tang Yahui's voice suddenly woke Wu Yili, who quickly tapped her lightly and said.
"No, your face is even redder now. You definitely have sothing going on. Don't worry, I'm older than you and prioritize friendship over love, so I definitely won't compete with you. Co on, tell , which high-ranking official's son or academic powerhouse has managed to capture our beautiful professor's heart?" Tang Yahui saw Wu Yili's face grow even more brilliantly red, and her gossiping nature flared up uncontrollably.
"Hey, Tang Yahui, if you keep joking around, I'm really going to buy jade from soone else," Wu Yili said in exasperation when Tang Yahui pressed on with her questions.
She couldn't possibly tell Tang Yahui that she, a dignified university professor, had just thought of a teenage boy!
"Ah, what a false alarm. Alright then, can we please talk business?" Seeing Wu Yili almost furious from embarrassnt, Tang Yahui sighed in disappointnt and said.
As her best friend, she still hoped that Wu Yili would find her other half sooner rather than later, to avoid dragging it out to her thirties like she had, wastefully letting her best years slip away, making it harder to find soone now.
It wasn't that she wasn't a catch, but finding an outstanding man of a similar age was challenging because such n typically didn't wait until this age; they were generally picked early and settled down with families.

Ge Dongxu naturally did not know that Tang Yahui and the Wu Yili he had t on Baiyun Mountain were good friends. He had already returned to Yadu Garden and was then dragged out shopping by Liu Jiayao.
Liu Jiayao was a natural clothes horse; she looked good in anything, so soon Ge Dongxu's hands were filled with bags, while Liu Jiayao blissfully held his arm.
This scene made the n in the mall look on with envy, jealousy, and resentnt! They couldn't fathom how a woman like Liu Jiayao, who had the figure, the presence, and the looks, could fall for a plainly dressed young man like Ge Dongxu.
Whenever they were shopping for clothes, each ti Ge Dongxu attempted to pay, Liu Jiayao would shoot him a look and stop him from doing so.
During these monts, salespeople tended to give Ge Dongxu strange glances.
This left Ge Dongxu both amused and frustrated, and he really wanted to tell Liu Jiayao and the salespeople that he truly was rich, that he was genuinely wealthy! There were at least several million lying in his account.
Of course, Ge Dongxu wouldn't do that. Seeing that Liu Jiayao wouldn't let him pay, he let it be, thinking to himself that her care was quite nice, and maybe one day he would give her a big surprise.
Following tradition, after Liu Jiayao had finished buying clothes for herself, she would definitely continue to shop for clothes for him. This ti was no exception.
After visiting the departnt store, Liu Jiayao pulled Ge Dongxu to Yanming Road.
"I recently discovered a boutique on Yanming Road that I think would really suit you," Liu Jiayao said once they arrived at Yanming Road.
Thereafter, Liu Jiayao took Ge Dongxu to the Donglin Yue exclusive store.
Seeing the na Donglin Yue, Ge Dongxu could only laugh and cry but still had to patiently try on several suits at Liu Jiayao's insistence. He ended up taking two suits back with him.
"I'm tired and hungry, let's go to the revolving restaurant at Mingyue Lake." Having placed each bag back in the trunk of the car, Liu Jiayao said with satisfaction.
…
On a cold winter day, sitting in a warm revolving restaurant surrounded by large floor-to-ceiling windows and viewing the myriad lights by the lakeside was quite another level of enjoynt.
"Oh, what a coincidence! President Liu, you are here too!" While Ge Dongxu and Liu Jiayao were dining, four people, two n and two won, approached them.
The two n, both around thirty, were dressed in foreign designer clothes and wore wristwatches. One of them was about six feet tall, with handso and striking features, dressed head to toe in designer brands, truly the prince charming every woman dreams of. The other man was slightly less striking in build and features but had an artistic flair to his outfit, exuding a different kind of masculine charm.
The speaker was the tall, handso man.
The two won were both very beautiful and sexy. One of them wore a tight skirt and stockings despite the winter cold, her slender waist and curvy hips sketching out breathtaking curves that were particularly sexy and explosive. The other woman wore a Korean-style casual trench coat and had long black hair, giving her a more demure and sweet look.
"Oh, it's President Li!" Liu Jiayao stood up and greeted the handso man lightly, then turned to the artistic man with a slight smile. "Director Wu is here too!"
Director Wu, the director of the Provincial Entertainnt Channel, was fully nad Wu Longcai. His na, which carried a heavy scent of money, matched his official title quite comically, and it was often the butt of jokes among people.
"Yes, it's rare for President Li to treat us, so he brought two newcors out for a big al. Unexpectedly, President Li is such a miser, inviting us to a buffet," joked Wu Longcai, referred to as Director Wu.
"Wu Longcai! This is the buffet at Mingyue Lake, you know!" President Li laughed and pointed at Wu Longcai as he spoke.
"President Liu, hello!" While the two n joked, the two won behind them smiled sweetly at Liu Jiayao, their expressions a mix of flattery and admiration, clearly recognizing Liu Jiayao, the beautiful president.
"Hello!" Liu Jiayao smiled back at them.
"President Liu, this young man looks unfamiliar. I know President Liu is a philanthropist who has sponsored many poor students. Could this young man be one of them, now that he's made it to the provincial capital?" While it was just a casual eting during a al among acquaintances, President Li scrutinized Ge Dongxu with a puzzled look that concealed a hint of disdain and then asked.
Upon hearing this, Ge Dongxu noticed that the conservatively dressed, pretty woman looked at him with a trace of disdain and scorn. In contrast, the woman wearing sowhat revealing clothes looked at him with a hint of encouragent and even nodded and smiled faintly, acknowledging him.
"President Li, you are thinking too much," Liu Jiayao responded indifferently, clearly not eager to entangle too much with the current President Li.
"Is that so? Actually, I really admire President Liu! I would also like to join hands with President Liu in doing so charitable work. I wonder if President Liu would give the opportunity?" President Li glanced at Ge Dongxu with a hint of doubt, though the contempt remained evident.
"That would be great news! If you two costic giants of Jiangnan Province join hands in charitable work, that would definitely make sensational news. Our TV station will certainly cover it well," Director Wu imdiately chid in with a laugh.
