Ding Zi was slightly startled, and a rare blush appeared on her usually icy, elegant face.
One had to admit, this shy demeanor of hers was far more appealing than her usual cold exterior.
Chen Bin continued, "Before your mother's surgery, you should go to the town first. That way, you won't be distracted, and it'll be easier to focus on your work."
"Thank you, Secretary Chen."
"I helped you out in such a big way, and that's all the gratitude I get? Just a verbal thank-you?"
Ding Zi lowered her head, not daring to meet Chen Bin's eyes, and timidly asked,
"Then… what do you want me to do?"
Chen Bin gave a mischievous smile and took a step closer. "I'll tell you after your mother's surgery."
Watching his figure gradually fade into the distance, Ding Zi finally snapped out of her daze.
"Secretary Chen, wait a moment. I'll go write you an IOU!"
Chen Bin didn't turn around; he just waved his hand.
"We'll talk about it later!"
