As soon as Gu Dai opened her computer, she saw that someone was using hacking techniques to dig into her past, specifically looking into fragrances. Her expression slightly darkened, puzzled as to who would be investigating this matter.
Regardless of who it was, she was not keen on having her affairs exposed.
With swift keystrokes, Gu Dai concealed the information about fragrances within minutes.
Breathing a sigh of relief, she smiled, “I’ve taken care of it. Now, let me teach you about hacking.”
Su Ting nodded, “Okay.”
He proceeded to ask about the aspects of hacking he hadn’t understood in the past few days.
Gu Dai noted, “This part is indeed a bit complicated…”
Su Ting listened intently and soon grasped the concept, nodding in understanding, “I get it now.”
After speaking, his gaze lingered on Gu Dai, quickly averted, then inevitably returned to her.
Gu Dai met his gaze directly, “If there’s something you want to know, just ask.”
Su Ting averted his gaze, murmuring, “Did something happen just now?”
He hurriedly added, “If it’s inconvenient to say, then…”
Gu Dai reassured with a smile, “There’s nothing inconvenient. I’m just used to solving things on my own.”
She then revealed someone had been looking into her knowledge of fragrances. Su Ting, puzzled, echoed, “Fragrances?”
Gu Dai nodded, “I’ve studied it before, and I have some skill in it. Now that I have some time, I’ll mix one for you.”
Without delay, she went to fetch her blending tools.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xuan noticed the slight lead he had vanished in an instant.
Song Ling fixated on Zhao Xuan, asked, “Any leads?”
Feeling the intense gaze, Zhao Xuan trembled, stammering, “My-my team had almost figured it out, but somehow, all the leads suddenly disappeared.” Song Ling commanded, “Keep looking!”
Zhao Xuan hurriedly agreed, his curiosity getting the better of him, “President Song, with your superior hacking skills, why not look into it yourself?”
Song Ling’s demeanor instantly chilled, an icy aura emanating from him.
Zhao Xuan stammered, “Pres… President Song…”
Song Ling coldly retorted, “If I have to handle everything myself, what use do I have for you?”
Zhao Xuan quickly reassured, “Right, right, President Song, you’re correct. I’ll urge my team to continue the search.”
Song Ling slammed his office door shut.
Ever since he realized his hacking skills were inferior to Gu Dai’s, the thought of hacking filled him with a sense of defeat.
He couldn’t understand how Gu Dai, a mere woman, could be more capable than him.
A sudden realization struck Song Ling.
The abrupt interruption of the search could only mean someone used hacking to interfere, likely Gu Dai. Her preventing the search indicated her knowledge of fragrances.
With this realization, Song Ling’s heart raced, eager to see Gu Dai.
At the Gu residence.
Gu Dai offered the blended scent to Su Ting, “Smell this and see if you like it.”
Su Ting leaned in, inhaled gently, then looked up at Gu Dai, “It has a refreshing cedar scent, light and not overpowering. It’s really nice; I like it a lot.”
Gu Dai chuckled, “I’m glad you like it.”
After saying this, she noticed the atmosphere between them had shifted. Looking down at Su Ting, her ears reddened with shyness, whispering, “You, I…”
Su Ting also realized the moment, his face flushing red.
Inhaling the fragrance and looking at Su Ting’s handsome face, Gu Dai felt herself drift into a daze, leaning in to touch his lips.
She felt Su Ting’s lips were as soft as if they were frozen, her head growing even dizzier, gradually losing focus. She felt herself being pulled into an embrace, the oxygen she could breathe in becoming scarcer, slowly giving way to a feeling of suffocation.
Su Ting released Gu Dai, his voice tender, “Daidai, breathe.”
Breathe?
Gu Dai looked at him blankly, tilting her head in confusion.
Su Ting took out a tissue to wipe her lips, laughing softly at her dazed state, “We can practice this more often..”
