Upon seeing her enter, a slight smile appeared on Asher's face, melting away his usual indifference. "Vivi," he called her name."Have you ordered?" Vivienne approached and asked.Asher stood up, extending his arms and naturally embraced Vivienne, but his response was unrelated to her question. "I missed you," he said, even more so than before.As she stood before him again, speaking to him, being held in his arms, the longing that had been suppressed for ten years soaked into her every fiber, as if all at once."I longed to see you, to press you beneath me, to kiss every inch of your body, and to hear you constantly call my name." Though incredibly ambiguous, his voice remained cool and composed, as if he merely expressed what he desired.Vivienne's body trembled slightly, wanting to create some distance between them, but Asher's arms tightened around her.His face buried in the crook of her shoulder, he greedily inhaled her scent, while his right hand slid under her clothes, the sli

After placing their orders and the dishes arrived, Vivienne was about to leave the private room when Asher grabbed her hand and said, "Stay and eat with me.""I'm still working," Vivienne replied.He suddenly stood up and walked towards the door of the private room."Where are you going?" She had an inexplicable sense of unease."I'm going to help you quit this job so that it won't be considered your working hours," he replied.She immediately stood in front of him. "I didn't say I want to quit. Maybe this job means nothing to you, but for me, it's my only source of income."He took out his wallet from his pocket and handed her a gold card. "The password is your birthday."Vivienne stared at the gold card in Asher's hand. "Take the card back.""Will you have dinner with me if I do?" he asked.She hesitated for a moment, unable to answer.He lifted his foot and walked towards the door again. Eating dinner and quitting her job, he was forcing her to choose one.Seeing that he was alread

"Did I hear that Four Seas Corporation is participating in the campus recruitment fair?" she casually changed the topic. "That's correct," Ezra replied. "But isn't Four Seas Corporation usually not involved in campus recruitment?" "Just usually, doesn't mean always." Scarlett hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't help but ask, "Will you be going to the university that day?" "Not necessarily." His gaze remained fixed on the ring in his hand, his fingertip gently rubbing it, as if caressing a beloved object. Or perhaps it should be said that this ring is his beloved object. He never allowed anyone to touch this ring, including her, except... "Can't you forget Vivienne?!" the words slipped out. Immediately after saying them, Scarlett regretted it. A coldness emanated from Ezra, his thin lips slightly pursed. He turned his head and looked at her, his gaze piercing, "So what if I can't forget her? And so what if I can?" That name was a taboo, buried deep within his heart for

The campus recruitment event drew special attention this time due to the participation of Four Seas Corporation. However, they were only recruiting for positions in interior design, which led many students from other majors to complain. Many students in Vivienne's class were eager and meticulously preparing various application materials. On the day of the recruitment event, undergraduate and graduate students, and even some doctoral students, flocked to the campus. It was quite crowded, and Julian pulled Vivienne towards the Four Seas Corporation's booth. "Julian, I'll wait for you here," Vivienne said. "Well, even though the competition is fierce at Four Seas, it's better to give it a shot than not try at all," Julian mistakenly thought that his friend was worried about this and comforted her, "In anything you do, it's better to have tried and failed than to regret not having the courage to try. At least you won't regret it in the future." In an instant, Vivienne felt a moment of

Vivienne couldn't believe that Asher would appear at the school, let alone throw a punch at Ezra in the next moment. Boom! The sound of bones colliding echoed abruptly in Vivienne's ears. Ezra staggered back two steps before regaining his balance. A trickle of crimson blood escaped from the corner of his lips, snaking down his jawline and dripping onto the back of his hand. Slowly lifting his head, Ezra stared at Asher. It had been years since anyone dared to strike him like this. Those who had once laid hands on him did not end well. Vivienne was filled with shock, her gaze fixated on the blood staining Ezra's lips. The female students who were passing by the dormitory building had also halted their steps, astonished by the scene unfolding before them. "She's not someone you can touch," Asher said to Ezra expressionlessly. "Is that so?" Ezra squinted slightly, then suddenly smiled. Wiping the blood off his lips with his fingertip, he looked at Vivienne. "Vivienne, the one who fi
