Chapter 044: Is it a Scare or a Surprise?

After boosting his favorability with Yun Kai, Lin Cheng returned next door with mixed feelings.

The study was very quiet. Huo Tingzhou sat behind the desk with a pair of rimless glasses adorning his handsome face, which exuded a dignified elegance and a chilly sternness, with a hint of abstinent allure.

Ji Huaiyu sat opposite Huo Tingzhou, with the computer displaying the same data as Tingzhou's.

Upon entering, Lin Cheng walked over to Ji Huaiyu, then leaned on the table and said to Huo Tingzhou with a smile, "Seventh Brother, I just bought a cake for Seventh Sister in your name, and she was quite surprised when she heard it was from you."

Huo Tingzhou looked up at him and replied indifferently, "Are you sure it wasn't a shock?"

Lin Cheng was stunned. Seventh Brother's insight was piercing; he had guessed it right.
