Jingye saw her first, put down the exquisite candlestick she was adjusting, and bowed slightly: "Miss, it's almost ready, but there are a few gifts whose registration information I need you to confirm."
The harmonious atmosphere just moments before suddenly changed, and the group of people who were busy with their own things almost simultaneously looked up at each other.
Being diplomatic is a skill, and knowing who to greet first is a big no-no.
Even Bai Li, faced with this room full of shrewd people, felt overwhelmed.
"I'll go take care of this and be right back." Bai Li simply raised her hand to tell everyone and quickly followed Jing Ye to the warehouse at the back.
Jingye handed her a tablet and tapped a few spots on the screen with her fingertips.
The two disappeared around the corner.
Guan Cha withdrew her gaze, a faint smile playing on her lips. Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the people around her to hear: "What valuable gift needs to be registered now?"
After he finished speaking, he sighed again, with a hint of complaint in his voice.
It's unclear whether he was genuinely curious about the gift or had something else in mind, such as Jingye deliberately luring Baili away.
Upon hearing this, Ying Xiangyang's brows furrowed unconsciously.
The unspoken understanding between Jingye and Baili was indeed too much of a nuisance.
But this guy in front of him, so eager to stir up trouble, was equally annoying. He glanced at the seemingly innocent Guan Cha, then turned away, remaining silent.
"Perhaps they are some special gifts." Zhang Yu, who was sitting on the sofa, said. He had changed into comfortable home clothes and his hair was down. His whole aura was gentle and peaceful.
His tone was calm, merely stating the facts, but to others it sounded more like he was speaking up for Jingye.
Guan Cha remained expressionless, but inwardly she thought, "Actor Zhang is far too Zen..."
He admitted that Zhang Yu's looks were top-tier, even in the diverse entertainment industry, but he was the oldest among them.
Beauty fades with time.
They can still be together now, but what about later?
When his youth fades, Bai Li will be in her prime. As the president of an entertainment giant, how much love can she still receive amidst the endless stream of new faces?
If I were his age, I'd probably be so anxious every night that I couldn't sleep and was losing hair like crazy.
If I don't fight and compete now, I won't know where to cry later...
Guan Cha glanced at Zhang Yu with pity, but didn't reply.
In the limited time he has left, he will strive to earn Bai Li's favor and create more memories that belong solely to them. In the future... even if Bai Li grows tired of him, these memories built upon their affection might prevent him from being completely abandoned.
Thinking of this, a layer of gloom settled in Guan Cha's eyes. He actually had the mood to pity others; he should worry more about himself.
Shi Shui looked at the group who had suddenly fallen silent, took a sip of tea with a puzzled expression, stared at the spot where Bai Li had disappeared, and waited quietly.
---------------------------------
When Jingye said that she needed to register a gift with Baili, it wasn't an excuse; it was indeed true.
Ordinary valuable items don't require Bai Li's attention, but given the special nature and value of this gift, he cannot make a hasty decision and needs Bai Li's signature upon receipt.
“It’s an anonymous gift.” Jingye handed Baili an unsigned fir wood box. “You need to sign for it in person and decide how to store it.”
It is gentle and mild.
Bai Li noticed the gold-stamped ministry emblem at the seam of the wooden box, and her heart skipped a beat; she had a premonition.
Upon opening it, I indeed found a white paper on cross-border policy benefits, which perfectly aligned with Bai Li's company's expansion plans.
Given that the gift involved top-secret information such as policy-making, only that person could have given it.
Bai Li understood what was going on. She closed the wooden box and gently stroked the badge with her fingertips.
She handed the wooden box back to Jingye: "Put it in the innermost part of the vault."
—The value of this "birthday gift" far exceeds that of mountains of antiques and rare treasures.
Sending thanks via mobile phone is too hasty; she'll have to go to Beijing in person in a few days.
"Understood." Jingye took the wooden box and carefully put it away.
