The first to pass is the wisest.
"I'm Su Ye, a newly joined psychoanalyst at the United Psychological Institute." Su Ye finally suppressed the turmoil in her heart. She could see that Mr. Bai Bo Yan had extremely strong emotional control, so as a professional, she shouldn't retreat first either. She briefly introduced herself and extended her hand for a handshake.
His palm was warm and gentle, and that brief touch of skin made her heart skip a beat.
"Nice to meet you." Yan Bojian's words were few, but his tone was forceful.
He subtly tightened his grip on her hand, and his gaze naturally measured the woman in front of him. Tonight, she was exceptionally cold and elegant, perhaps due to the contrast with her professional attire, giving off a completely different feeling from that morning. He couldn't help but admit, she was a very charming and sexy woman.
Her fingers were slightly cool, and the moment her fingertips touched his palm was like raindrops falling, reminding him of the phrase "ice skin jade bones".
"But Mr. Nian, I won't take this case, you'd better ask someone else." Su Ye withdrew her hand and changed the subject, her tone extremely calm.
That coolness slipped from Yan Bo's fingertips, leaving behind only a silky aftertaste.
Professor Ding was stunned on one side, and as soon as he reacted, he wanted to persuade him, but Su Ye directly looked at him and said, "Professor Ding, you don't need to persuade me. I've already said it last time. Before taking office, I won't take any cases and won't work overtime."
"Elementary—"
"Dr. He and Dr. Fang both have rich work experience, I think either of them can handle Mr. Nian's case. Sorry, I still have something to do, I'll leave first." Su Ye didn't give Professor Ding any chance to persuade her, nor did she look at Nian Boyan's expression, after finishing this speech, she turned around and left.
"Suo Ye!"
I am the dividing line little girl
The night grew darker, but Sanlitun remained a non-stop party scene. Across the street, the neon lights and bustling nightlife from the other end of the street seemed to stretch on forever.
Su Ye stepped out of the elevator and was about to leave when a low, powerful voice rose from behind her, adding a hint of temptation under the night sky. "Dr. Su, please wait."
The sound of high heels came to an abrupt halt. Su Ye turned around, looking startled for a moment. She hadn't expected Yan Baiyan to follow her.
The moonlight grew more hazy, the night wind mixed with the faint sweetness of early summer, and occasionally a few scattered flower petals floated over, bridging the distance between the two. The tall figure of the man was reflected in the gleaming marble floor, he stood there calling out to her, looking down from above, his tone seemingly gentle yet hiding an unyielding authority.
Petals slipped through his hair, looking too noble to be real.
She and he were only a few steps apart, tonight's deep and clean night sky was decorated with a vast expanse of starry night colors, creating a quiet and beautiful picture.
Nian Baiyan ultimately broke the brief silence, step by step walking forward, his tall figure making Su Ye feel pressure once again, just like that ambiguous clear morning.
He stopped in front of her, his figure almost covering her shadow. The man's breath entered hers, clean and mellow, smelling so good on this night that it was intoxicating.
"Doctor, this case is very special, I hope you can reconsider." Yan Baiyan's words were concise and decisive, his tone was neither fast nor slow, but always managed to bring a strange pressure to the other party.
Su Ye raised her head, and her beautiful eyes met his, "Mr. Nian, I haven't officially started working yet."
"How much overtime pay is needed? I'll give it." Yan Bojian's gaze was stern.
"Sorry, I'd rather take some time off to go shopping." Su Ye made it clear that she wouldn't take the case and turned around to leave after saying this.
Before he could take a few steps, Yan Bo's calm and unhurried voice fell again, with a tone that was neither high nor heavy, but had a deterrent force. "Jing Shi, enough to make the Allied Forces regain their reputation."
Su Ye suddenly stopped in her tracks again and turned around to look at him.
Nian Baiyan remained standing in place, unmoving, as if he had long expected her to turn back again. His expression was consistently calm, with a sense of inevitability underlying his tranquility.
"Wang Ping's case has brought Lianzhong's credibility to a bottleneck. I am your only hope at present."
