“Do you want to eat this?” Zhou Miao raised the bag of chips and asked.

Cheng Heng’s face was leaning very close as if he was begging her to touch him, but Zhou Miao did not fall for it and pushed the bag of chips in front of him.

“Give me a smile. Give me a smile, and I’ll give you.”

Cheng Heng probably understood it as if he smiled, Zhou Miao would touch him. He raised the corners of his mouth and revealed a smile, innocent and cute. A smiley face also popped out above his head.

Zhou Miao took out a piece of potato chip and fed it to his mouth. Cheng Heng bit the potato chip, but his smiley face disappeared immediately.

“Men are really hard to please,” Zhou Miao thought. She put down the potato chips and touched Cheng Heng randomly for a while, until the number of smiley faces stopped increasing.

At this moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was Bai Yang.

Bai Yang invited her and Cheng Heng out for a meal. Although she did not know what Bai Yang wanted, Zhou Miao still agreed.

“Yu Ying has already dropped the ball twice in the collaboration with our family.” During the meal, Bai Yang complained as she ate.

This time, it was not only Bai Yang and Bai Yue who joined them for a meal. There was also a general manager from their company called Gu Shuo, who was in charge of the exhibition hall’s business.

“So I was thinking, could Cheng Heng take over the design work for the Bai family in the future? I will talk to Brother Cheng Tai about this later. I wanted to let you know in advance and hear your views on this matter.”

Cheng Heng didn’t go to the company to work now, but he still maintained his work intensity. It was not an issue at all to take on such a job.

“Cheng Heng’s condition is pretty good now. I think your proposal is feasible.”

Zhou Miao agreed and looked at Cheng Heng, who was eating silently at the side.

“That’s good. Chairman Bai was worried that you wouldn’t agree to it,” Gu Shuo chimed in.

Zhou Miao looked at him and thought that he looked familiar.

“I’d like to ask for your help with the exhibition hall as well. You’re a designer, so you should have a good understanding of aesthetics. I hope you can help me produce a new version of the commentary. After the live broadcast incident the other day, Yu Ying kept turning down this request. She even said that she could let you take over the job.”

Zhou Miao laughed when she heard that. Yu Ying was pushing the things she screwed up to her?

Yu Ying probably didn’t realize that the talent and knowledge that belonged to Zhou Miao had returned to her.

Zhou Miao agreed with a smile.

Bai Yue, who had been silent all this while, finally opened his mouth. “Thank you, Miss Zhou and Little Heng. I really have to thank you for supporting my sister all this time, allowing the Bai family business to continue.”

He held the wine glass and offered it over to Zhou Miao, fumbling around to find Zhou Miao’s location.

Zhou Miao felt her heart ache. If it wasn’t for that accident, Bai Yue would have been a handsome and elegant young man.

Zhou Miao intercepted his direction and clinked glasses with him, saying thank you softly.

She didn’t notice that the expression above Cheng Heng’s head had suddenly become angry.

The emoji’s cheeks were puffed up, and its eyes were wide with anger as if it had seen something heinous.

Zhou Miao also clinked glasses with Gu Shuo and Bai Yang. When she clinked glasses with Gu Shuo, an angry expression appeared above Cheng Heng’s head.

Zhou Miao saw his expression and was extremely puzzled. Why was this little youngster throwing a tantrum?

This meal was very harmonious. Zhou Miao roughly understood the projects the Bai Corporation and the Cheng’s Group were collaborating on, as well as the exhibition hall project.

In addition to these, she also knew that Gu Shuo was Cheng Heng’s junior high school classmate.

“Looks like I must have seen him before during the last mission. No wonder he looks so familiar,” Zhou Miao thought to herself, but she still had a vague sense of strangeness.

After the meal, they stood by the side of the road, waiting for their drivers to drive the cars over. Cheng Heng’s face was expressionless, but the expression above his head was still pouting angrily.

“Don’t be angry anymore. My hands are cold, so warm them up for me.” Zhou Miao put her hand into Cheng Heng’s pocket and interlocked her fingers with his. She moved close to Cheng Heng’s ear and acted coy. The angry expression above Cheng Heng’s head was replaced by a smiley face.

Suddenly, a drunkard rushed out of nowhere, waving something like a steel pipe. He went into a drunken frenzy on the road and staggered towards Cheng Heng and the others.

Although Zhou Miao was afraid, she still protected Cheng Heng with her body.

That drunkard seemed to have suddenly seen something. He swung the rod and rushed over. The rod was about to hit Cheng Heng and Zhou Miao.

At the critical moment, Zhou Miao, who was shielding Cheng Heng, pushed him down. That rod landed on Zhou Miao’s back. It was not a fatal injury, but it was so painful that it made her feel somewhat dizzy.

Her vision went black for a moment, and some images and sounds seemed to appear in her mind.

“Little Miao, you have to take good care of that jade coin…”

Were these the memories of the original owner? Before Zhou Miao could think about it more deeply, the pain spread up her back. Everything turned black before her eyes, and she fainted.
