Young Master Fei was burning with anxiety, accelerating all the way, even running a red light in an empty intersection and getting a 6-point penalty. He finally managed to catch up to Gu Xiyue.

Seeing Gu Xiyue about to get into her car and leave, Young Master Fei didn't even have time to fix his clothes. In a flustered panic, he tumbled out of his car and scrambled after her.

"Xiyue! Wait! Xiyue! Wait!"

In his haste, he naturally didn't notice Gu Xiyue's expression.

Hearing the voice, Gu Xiyue turned her head. She saw the annoying ghost running towards her in a mess.

She didn't notice, but the corner of her mouth curved into a fleeting smile, and a flash of slyness lit up her eyes. However, it all calmed down immediately. The only change was that her movements to open the car door became slower than a sloth's.

"Xiyue, wait... pant... pant pant... wait..." Young Master Fei ran breathlessly in front of Gu Xiyue, gasping for air.

"Is there something you need? Young Master Fei?" Seeing the annoying ghost arrive, Gu Xiyue had no choice but to pretend to stop her actions, feigning nonchalance as she asked indifferently.

Strange, I ran such a long distance and spent so much time, why hasn't Gu Xiyue gotten into the car yet?

Could it be that I actually possess extraordinary athletic talent?

There was no time to think further. Before Young Master Fei could even catch his breath, he began to tick off his checklist.

As the first major scene in this book, Young Master Fei took it quite seriously.

As for props, there were a few Supreme Roses, which could be called rare treasures, dozens of vibrant, dew-kissed ordinary red roses, a large pile of various red flowers whose names he couldn't recall, and... some fake flowers. Although not exquisite, they were better than nothing. He'd make do with them for now, assuming she wouldn't care too much about these details. So, he'd tick it off as passable.

The venue? In front of the Gu Corporation building. The environment was beautiful, the atmosphere was excellent, and most importantly, it was the designated location in the original book. Perfect! Tick.

Characters appearing? I'm here, Gu Xiyue is here. Ye Chen? Let me see... he's here. This is also perfect. Tick.

Now that everything was ready, all that was needed was the final push. If the performance later went smoothly without any mishaps and proceeded step by step according to the plan, wouldn't the score be easily passing, or even high?

What displeased Gu Xiyue was that her question received no response from him. And that annoying guy was still looking around, as if something in the surroundings was a hundred or even a thousand times more important than her, completely distracted.

This angered Gu Xiyue.

Her delicate eyebrows shot up, her beautiful eyes filled with anger, and she rebuked, "Young Master Fei, I'm talking to you! Are you deaf? If that's the case, then I have no reason to stay any longer. I still have a lot to do! So, if there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave. Also, I must solemnly warn you, don't pester me again in the future! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!" With that, she turned to leave.

"No, no, no, Xiyue, do you know what day it is today?"

"What day?" Gu Xiyue turned around to see what he had to say.

"Today is the 909th day since we met! From the moment we first met, I knew that you were the one true love of my life. My love for you is as eternal and unchanging as the heavens and earth. For the rest of my life, you will be the brightest moon in my heart, and I will be the most ardent sun in your life. No matter when or where, as long as you need me, I will unhesitatingly open my arms to give you the warmest and most steadfast support."

"..."

If this annoying guy could have confessed to her with sincere eyes and a genuine tone, Gu Xiyue, despite feeling a tiny bit moved, would still have told him without hesitation to stop dreaming and give up.

But now...

Fei Yangyao's mouth opened and closed, syllables popping out one by one as he stiffly recited his rigid lines, his eyes constantly darting towards the security guards behind her.

What? Are the security guards the ones you're confessing to?

Am I just a part of your play between the two of you?

Then why are you looking for me? You might as well go find them!

Go be with them!

How insulting can this get!

Gu Xiyue felt like fire was about to shoot from her eyes. Her expression grew increasingly furious, her chest heaving violently with anger, wishing she could pounce on him and bite him to death.

Fei Yangyao ignored her, standing in place. He snapped his fingers, and a gorgeously decorated flower float slowly drove over. "Xiyue, this is my gift to you, 520 Supreme Roses, symbolizing my feelings for you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

As Gu Xiyue looked over, she noticed a tall, annoying guy skillfully moving his feet, intentionally or unintentionally blocking her line of sight.

Not only that, but this annoying guy's eyes were also darting around, as if trying to conceal some unease.

This is bad! I absolutely cannot let her notice anything unusual! Young Master Fei thought anxiously.

Something's not right!

She suddenly yanked him aside and quickly stepped forward to inspect. She immediately discovered that these were not Supreme Roses at all; most of them were just ordinary flowers. That wasn't the worst part. The most outrageous thing was that there were fake flowers!

Gu Xiyue immediately exploded, "Fei Yangyao!"

"Here!" The guilty suspect, Fei, replied subconsciously, flustered.

At this moment, his heart was filled with confusion and unease.

Where did it go wrong? By all logic, she shouldn't have even glanced at these roses, so why did she go to inspect them so carefully?

What should I do now?

Wait! Isn't this even better?

I originally wanted her to despise and reject me, thus smoothly completing the task of the fake boyfriend between the male and female leads. If she truly felt disgusted, wouldn't that be the result I desired?

Thinking of this, Young Master Fei's confidence suddenly surged.

He straightened his body and, feigning calmness, asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Fei Yangyao, what exactly do you mean? Why are you doing this to me! There are so many women in the world, why are you fixated on me alone?"

"For the past two and a half years, you've come to my company to harass me every day. Every time you came, your eyes were unfocused. Others thought you were looking at me, but that wasn't the case at all!"

"Your eyeballs weren't focused at all. You just treated me like a decoration, and only spoke your own words, as if you were completing some task. It was the same every time, never changing!"

"No matter what I said, after you finished speaking, you'd just dismiss it with 'Xiyue, I'll come again tomorrow.' You never! You never paid any attention to me!"

"And now? Not only did I not see you yesterday, but you didn't leave a single word, not even an excuse. And today, you're trying to fob me off with fake flowers."

"Fine! You can't even be bothered to look at me anymore. Am I, Gu Xiyue, some kind of lowly person? To be disgusted by you like this! If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'm not done with you!!"
