His expression was too tender, unlike his usual assertive dominance.
The gray suit, immaculately ironed, clung to his perfect physique, making him look poised and stylish. From the side profile of his clearly defined face, one could see his slightly tilted, prominent nose, which exuded subtle luxury. Although normally as fierce as a wolf or tiger, at this moment, he seemed to have sheathed his sharp edges, leaving only a gentle indulgence reminiscent of peaceful years.
Too indulgent.
In that moment, Chu Xi even doubted whether she could achieve her ultimate goal.
"Mr. Li," she called out again, this time raising her voice.
The man, who had been looking down at his messages, finally raised his head to look at her. "There's important news, go ahead, I'm listening."
Chu Xi, with a smile that was not quite a smile, said, "The 'important news' wouldn't happen to be about your girlfriend, would it?"
Li Shengxiao raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.
