The next day at noon, when Ge Dongxu arrived at Yuan Li's office, Lin Jinnuo was already waiting for him. Upon seeing him enter, she hurriedly stood up to shake his hand and greet him, while Yuan Li gave Dongxu a gratefully affectionate look and stood up to pour him a cup of tea.

From the incident with Cao Dapeng yesterday and the guaranteed loan for Lin Jinnuo today, Yuan Li saw the meticulous care and protection that Dongxu offered her.

With Dongxu's guarantee, things were quickly settled, and the next step was to submit it for approval.

Whether the upper department would approve or not, Lin Jinnuo might not have been entirely confident, but Yuan Li was sure that the application would definitely be approved one hundred percent.

Because Dongxu was not only the major boss of Qinghe Herbal Tea but also the Liu branch manager in Ouzhou City knew him too!

Other people's guarantees could be disregarded by the Liu branch manager who might decline them, but with Dongxu's guarantee, he wouldn't dare not to approve it no matter how brave he was. Moreover, Dongxu also had such a strong financial power.

"It's the weekend today; come to Sister's house for dinner tonight!" After settling the matter, Yuan Li walked them out the door, then gently pulled Dongxu aside and whispered softly.

Dongxu was quite concerned about being alone with Yuan Li and wanted to find an excuse to escape, but Yuan Li seemed to have guessed his thoughts and quickly added in a low voice, "No refusals, you have helped me a great deal, and I must be given a chance to express my gratitude."

As Yuan Li looked at Dongxu tenderly, the words he had at the tip of his tongue were swallowed back. He nodded his head and agreed.

After school in the afternoon, he first went home to drop off his backpack, read for a while, saw that it was about time, greeted Du Yifan and Cheng Lehao, and then rode his bicycle out the door.

Familiar with the route, he arrived at Yuan Li's doorstep and just as he was about to knock, his mind inexplicably drifted to the scene he had witnessed the last time the door opened.

The door suddenly opened during Dongxu's reverie, giving him a fright.

The house was very warm with the heating turned up, and Yuan Li was only wearing leggings and a tight white wool sweater.

"What are you staring at? You! Hurry up and come inside; I need to go take care of the stove," seeing Dongxu somewhat distracted, Yuan Li first froze, then when she noticed where Dongxu's gaze had fallen, her cheeks instantly turned a shade of red, she shot him a glare, then with a twist of her waist, quickly turned and walked to the kitchen.

Dongxu gave a slightly awkward smile and then took off his shoes to enter the house.

"Let me help you take off your coat," Yuan Li quickly came out of the kitchen, seemingly having forgotten Dongxu's earlier impertinent gaze, walked up to him, naturally helped him off with his coat, and went to hang it up.

Watching Yuan Li's natural actions, Dongxu couldn't help but suddenly think of Liu Jiayao.

He involuntarily made a comparison in his mind.

If Liu Jiayao was a shade of green that made him feel relaxed, warm, and natural all the time, then Yuan Li, a woman full of mature charm, seemed more like a shade of red, giving him a fiery feeling.

Perhaps because of this, Dongxu always subconsciously had a desire to avoid being alone with her; he feared he couldn't control himself.

Dongxu was well aware that it wasn't because he was lecherous, but because he was at an age when his needs were strong.

"What are you daydreaming about? Go sit down; I'll be ready shortly," Yuan Li hung up the clothes, turned around to see Dongxu staring at her, lightly tapped his forehead with her finger, then swayed her slim waist and went back to the kitchen.

Dongxu watched Yuan Li enter the kitchen, then followed her advice and sat down in the living room. But just after sitting down, he heard a "bang" from the kitchen as dishes hit the floor.

Dongxu immediately stood up and headed toward the kitchen.

"Don't come over; the floor is covered in shards," Yuan Li saw Dongxu approaching, quickly told him, then crouched down to start picking up the pieces.

"Be careful of the sharp edges, I'll handle it, I'll handle it," Ge Dongxu hurriedly said.

"Ah!" Unfortunately, Ge Dongxu was too late, and Yuan Li still accidentally cut her finger, blood immediately flowed, contrasting sharply against her pale, delicate fingers, it was particularly glaring and especially heartbreaking.

Without a second thought, Ge Dongxu grabbed Yuan Li's finger and sucked on it.

"Didn't I tell you not to move, let me handle it?" After sucking a couple of times, Ge Dongxu finally let go and pressed on her wound, scolding her.

"Who knows which woman will be lucky enough to marry you!" Yet Yuan Li, as if she hadn't heard Ge Dongxu's scolding, just gazed at him dreamily.

"Sister Li, what are you talking about? I'm still just a high school student! Alright, you go out, I'll take care of this," Ge Dongxu said, his face blushing slightly.

"How can I let you men do this sort of task? I'll handle it," Yuan Li smiled at the sight of Ge Dongxu blushing, then pushed him a bit and said.

"I said I'll handle it, I have thick skin, and good eyesight too," Ge Dongxu said.

"Alright, I'll go get the broom, that should be fine, right?" Yuan Li pushed Ge Dongxu once again.

"Haha, I forgot about the broom; Sister Li, you sure are sharp," Ge Dongxu was slightly startled and then laughed.

"I think you're making fun of me for being slow," Yuan Li extended her injured finger and wiggled it at Ge Dongxu, rolling her eyes.

She didn't realize that though the cut on her finger was a bit deep, the fact that it wasn't bleeding was actually not normal.

"How could anyone with a slow mind ever become a branch manager?" Ge Dongxu hurriedly said with a complimenting smile.

"Always knowing the right things to say to please people!" Yuan Li rolled her eyes at Ge Dongxu, then pushed him again: "Now go out, don't block the way!"

Ge Dongxu smiled, then left the kitchen.

After cleaning the kitchen, Yuan Li soon brought out the last dish, sweet and sour ribs, and called Ge Dongxu to the dining room for dinner.

"How about some wine?" Yuan Li said.

"Maybe we shouldn't," Ge Dongxu remembered the last time he drank and his heart involuntarily thumped hard, he hurriedly said.

"It's not lively without wine. Don't worry, we'll just drink a little," spotting Ge Dongxu hastily waving his hand and also recalling the last occasion, Yuan Li's pretty face blushed slightly as she said.

"Then just a little," Ge Dongxu said.

"What, afraid I'll drink too much and devour you?" Seeing Ge Dongxu emphasizing drinking just a little, Yuan Li couldn't help but glare at him.

"Of course not, I'm more worried about myself," Ge Dongxu hurriedly said.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Li's face turned crimson, she thought for a moment, then said, "Then we shouldn't drink at all, putting up with it is bad for your health."

As Yuan Li mentioned that drinking was bad for Ge Dongxu's health, her cheeks became even more flushed, while Ge Dongxu listened, somewhat puzzled, not understanding why it would be bad for his health.

Although Ge Dongxu was still a naïve young man, his instincts told him not to pursue the matter further, instead he simply smiled and said, "A little won't hurt."
