Chapter 14: Chapter 14: It Will Scare You to Death
Qin Cheng was baffled by Fu Si’s confidence, “Mr. Fu, you’ve only met her once, right…?”
Even a genius bordering on abnormal couldn’t fully understand someone after just one meeting, could they?
However, before he could finish speaking, a delicate and aloof figure walked in from outside the door.
Qin Cheng’s eyes instantly widened in shock.
No way, she actually came?
As soon as Chi Gui entered, she saw a handsome guy standing at the door, staring at her with an expression as if he’d seen a ghost.

Chi Gui: ?
She then spotted Fu Si sitting behind the counter.
The man held a mobile phone in one hand; his fingers were long and his knuckles distinct, quite attractive. His features were exquisite and noble, and beneath the gold-rimmed glasses, those phoenix eyes were even darker than the night sky.
A simple white shirt on him seemed to carry an additional layer of nobility.

Fu Si leaned in very close, his breath nearly touching Chi Gui’s delicate ear, his voice low and enticing: “Yes, indeed. I hope you’ll take good care… of my store in the future.”
He drew out the word “my,” infusing it with endless ambiguity.
Chi Gui frowned, looking into his captivating phoenix eyes.
Describing Fu Si’s appearance as flawless wasn’t an exaggeration; he exuded a kind of nobility and grace that only came from being raised in a wealthy and distinguished family.
Back in the research institute, Chi Gui always heard her students gushing about how charming Fu Si was, saying that even being played by him once would be a blissful experience.
Seeing him up close, there indeed was something maddeningly appealing about him.
