"Oh, I'm sorry, that's mine," Go Jichen said. He took his phone from inside his suit and looked at the message. "Excuse me." He then left the private room, seemingly to make a call.
After wishing the Kims' mother well, Chen Mu Sheng stopped talking again. Tang Feng seemed to be focused on something on his phone, so the room returned to silence.
Fortunately, it didn't last long. Go Jichen soon returned, but he didn't sit back down. He had a frown on his face. "I'm sorry, it was from the company."
"Any problem?" Yan Shu asked.
"Yes," he answered. "Fortunately it's nothing too serious, so Mr. Feng and I should be able to deal with it ourselves."
Tang Feng immediately stood up as if he had been waiting for this moment. "That's very unfortunate. Don't worry Mr. Chen, we know you'd hate to cut this meeting short. Me and Mr. Go will take care of it. Please continue to enjoy the dinner."
With that, they both bowed and headed to the door behind Yan Shu. Just as they reached it, and out of Yan Shu's vision, they gave Chen Mu Sheng a thumbs up before leaving the room. The two of them gave a quick laugh as soon as they were out.
The only reason for the two to accompany Chen Mu Sheng was to distract Yan Shu's friends. With none of her friends coming, there was no reason for them to be there. So Tang Feng messaged Go Jichen, and they faked the whole story about the problem at the company.
They soon left the restaurant and got into a car. While Tang Feng drove, Go Jichen watched all that happened in the room through his phone. Earlier on, he had installed a hidden camera there.

The room was once again enveloped by silence. None of them knew what to say. Chen Mu Sheng grabbed the menu and handed it to Yan Shu. "Choose whatever you like, Ms. Shu."
She nodded, his gentleman action making her blush. After looking through the menu, she called for the waiter and ordered a few dishes. Chen Mu Sheng asked for the same as hers.
After the waiter left, the room once again fell into silence. This kept on until the food arrived.
Yan Shu had nothing to eat since lunch, so she was very hungry. She started gulping down on her food, until realizing that Chen Mu Sheng had barely touched his plate. "What's wrong? Don't you like the food?"
Che Mu Sheng looked back at her. "No, I like it. Our tastes are similar. It's just that this suit is somewhat tight." He shrugged his shoulders.
As he shrugged, Yan Shu was able to see his body better. 'He certainly seems to have a nice body. It's a pity that the suit is in the way.' She quickly caught herself at this thought. "Why don't you just take it off?"
Chen Mu Sheng was shocked by her words. "Take it off?" he asked incredulously.
"Yes… I mean, the coat. Take off the coat." Of course, she meant the coat...
Of course, she meant the coat, what was he thinking? "You're right. Could you help me take it off?"
Yan Shu blinked.
