In the company, only a few people are qualified to go overseas, and Dao An is the youngest among them.
Other senior executives in the company have also considered using this opportunity to move abroad for stability, but ultimately, as they age, they find themselves unable to pursue such ambitions with the sa zeal, understanding the concept of the new replacing the old.
Therefore, in the eyes of others, this opportunity belongs solely to Dao An.
"Dao An, have you really decided to go to M Country?" When Gu Yuan asked this question, she already knew the answer in her heart.
It was probably because she always felt he might have other plans, as Dao An is soone who plans ticulously.
Beside her, Dao An’s deep voice resounded: "This is a great opportunity to gain overseas experience, and I want to cherish it."
"Alright then."
Gu Yuan didn’t ntion Sheng Yi, probably because Dao An didn’t want to bring it up.
But Gu Yuan believed she had guessed it.
Dao An felt unworthy of Sheng Yi. This trip abroad had no return date, and he couldn’t promise anything. By the ti he returned, perhaps having made a na for himself, Sheng Yi might have already married soone else.
So he never deliberately ntioned Sheng Yi in front of her.
Actually... Gu Yuan really wanted to tell Dao An: Do you realize you are already so outstanding, to the point where few won can stand shoulder to shoulder with you? You can boldly pursue whom you love; don’t wait until you’ve missed the chance and are full of regrets.
These thoughts stayed within Gu Yuan, unsaid.
Dao An probably didn’t want to hear them either; after stirring him, there would only remain an indescribable pain.
"There’s still three months’ ti, during these three months..."
"President Gu, I plan to leave early."
"...leave early?"
"Yes, two months early, which ans I’ll prepare to leave for M Country in a month, to get ready sooner."
Gu Yuan knew full well what kind of person Dao An was.
Having worked together for so long, she had long since figured him out.
She rely sighed, "When I find the ti, co to the Gu Mansion for dinner." Pausing briefly, she glanced at Dao An and said, "I’ll invite Sheng Yi too then; since you’re leaving, consider it a farewell, as it might be hard to gather again once you go abroad."
Dao An understood Gu Yuan’s intention and felt grateful, agreeing, "Alright, I’ll follow President Gu’s arrangent."
One might wonder how Gu Yuan figured out Dao An’s secret admiration for Sheng Yi, but it was not from observing Dao An, as he hid it well, showing no indication whatsoever.
Gu Yuan discovered it accidentally during a conversation with Sheng Yi.
Once, Sheng Yi went to a dinner eting with a director at a high-end place.
That night, after the dinner was supposed to be the director who would take Sheng Yi ho. Given Sheng Yi’s fa and having Gu Yuan’s backing, no one would dare harm her, but there are always reckless ones trying to take advantage when she’s drunk.
’Coincidentally’ Dao An also had a dinner eting at that place, involving important figures, yet that night, contrary to his usual smooth and worldly manner, Dao An stubbornly refused to drink because he insisted on driving Sheng Yi ho next door.
Dao An handled it smoothly without a hint of rumor.
It wasn’t until Sheng Yi ntioned it herself, saying she was fortunate Dao An was there that night, that Gu Yuan learned of it.
...
That afternoon.
Sheng Yi was still unaware that Dao An was about to leave his hotown for overseas. She was currently busy filming an outdoor reality show in full swing.
This outdoor reality show was called "Full Team Challenge," a new hit variety show this year, garnering imnse popularity right from its first episode, with each subsequent episode equally successful.
As an artist of Sheng Yi’s caliber, she was naturally among the top invited guests for its first season.
This episode was the fourth of the first season, featuring both Sheng Yi and Fu Yao in its recording.
In this episode, Sheng Yi’s character was a serial killer involved in a milk tea shop, with most of the script prepared in advance, but predominantly relying on the actors to improvise.
Sheng Yi’s acting was excellent, concealing the killer’s identity thoroughly, continuously sparring with other actors using superb acting skills, hiding the true culprit’s identity until eventually being discovered by other guests through gradual clue gathering.
If it weren’t for the last step that required following the script, Sheng Yi’s level of disguise could have earned her an Oscar for portraying the killer.
During the final chase scene, Sheng Yi ran too fast and accidentally twisted her ankle, yet she endured until the show’s recording ended before rushing to the hospital.
The director even praised Sheng Yi profusely on Weibo for this matter.
So dedicated.
At the final mont, she didn’t let the team down, clenching her teeth to complete the recording with poise, leaving both the director and the staff present that day deeply moved.
