It was like the first time that Su Yi was affirmed like this. She pestered Xu Ruoxing, unsatisfiedly wanting a response. Xu Ruoxing replied her tirelessly, "Yes, you are great, Su Yi. In my heart, you are the best."

Has no one ever praised her since she was a child

No, many people praised her, but what she wanted was just the appreciation from those closest to her. After going to school, she restrained all her emotions and did not let her grandma worry at all. She went abroad directly in her freshman year of college. Every time she called, she would report that she was safe. On the one hand, she told her grandma that she was fine, and on the other hand, she emphasized to herself that she was really fine.

Without parents, she can still live well, even better than ordinary people. She stubbornly believes that locking herself in a cage, building a pyramid and sitting safely inside it is the best. Outsiders cannot see her flaws, and she pretends not to see them. Outsiders only think that she is glorious enough, and she pretends to be so too.

Over time, she was blinded by the illusion and really thought she was fine.

But the backlog in her heart, day after day, year after year, finally one day it collapsed like a building, and the devastation was revealed. She realized that it was not good at all, and she couldn't hold on any longer. Xu Ruoxing said: "You don't have to hold on, you still have me."

She was greedy for everything about Xu Ruoxing, her words, her body, her tenderness, and everything about her.

Su Yi didn't remember how many times she did it, she only remembered that in the end Xu Ruoxing hugged her and said, "Go to sleep."

She obediently closed her eyes and slept soundly.

It seemed that she had a dream about Xu Ruoxing, but she couldn't remember it when she woke up. Su Yi was a little unhappy, and Xu Ruoxing said, "Just dream again tonight."

Su Yi nodded, kissed Xu Ruoxing before getting out of bed, and said, "Let's do it tonight."

When Xu Ruoxing heard this, she looked up at her, always feeling that Su Yi was saying something else. Su Yi had already gone into the bathroom, washed up, and came out to start preparing breakfast. Xu Ruoxing passed by the kitchen and smelled a faint aroma of food. Su Yi cooked millet porridge. After Xu Ruoxing went to the bathroom, she went to water the flowers on the balcony. Xu Ruoxing came out and stood at the kitchen door, looking at her from a distance.

Su Yi's profile was indifferent, his expression was calm and his eyes were steady.

Although she was like this before, Xu Ruoxing still felt the subtle difference. Xu Ruoxing smiled, went to the room to change clothes, and had breakfast with Su Yi. She asked Su Yi: "What time is the follow-up examination?"

Su Yi said, "I have an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. I will go there by myself."

She knew Xu Ruoxing was very busy and was discussing the issue of opening a new store in a shopping mall. Xu Ruoxing said, "If I can't go, let Xiao Zheng take you there."

Su Yi opened her mouth and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow afternoon."

Xu Ruoxing nodded.

They had breakfast and went to the company together. Before Xu Ruoxing sat down, she saw Li Chen rushing into the office. He forgot to knock on the door and asked, "Did the review reject our design?"

Xu Ruoxing raised her eyes and looked at her: "How did you know?"

Li Chen said: "The news has already come out. What's going on? Hasn't it been notified to us yet?"

It is true that there has been no notification yet, but Xu Ruoxing has guessed about it. The news that Li Chen heard was: "They said we copied Huaihai's design?"
