In the evening, Song Xiaodong arrived in Beijing and saw Yang Yushi at the exit.

The current weather in Beijing had already transitioned into autumn. Yang Yushi was dressed in a small suit that made her figure incredibly striking. At first glance, one couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

A pair of large sunglasses rested on her nose, concealing most of her face. But just from her exposed nose, small mouth, and exquisite chin, it was enough to let one's imagination run wild.

As she walked toward Song Xiaodong, Yang Yushi smiled and said, "Xiaodong, I've been waiting for you."

Song Xiaodong narrowed his eyes and replied, "You're such a talented woman in Beijing. Aren't you afraid of being recognized and surrounded by fans?"

Yang Yushi smirked and said, "I'm not one of those big movie stars, and I don't have much exposure usually. How many people would really recognize me?"

"That's true. But just based on your outfit, I wonder how many people have been attracted. Look at those men's eyes. If their gaze could kill, I'd already be torn to pieces."

Yang Yushi softly chuckled and said, "Xiaodong, you're quite humorous."

"I'm just stating the facts. A beautiful woman is like a curse. Being around someone like you, I feel a lot of pressure."

Yang Yushi smiled and said, "But Xiaodong, doesn't your family have many beauties? Do you feel the same pressure?"

Song Xiaodong shrugged and said, "That's different. They are my family, and I'm willing to bear the pressure for them. Bearing pressure for you feels like an unnecessary burden."

"But you can consider me as your family too, can't you?" Yang Yushi looked at Song Xiaodong.

Without using any perception ability, Song Xiaodong knew that behind the sunglasses, Yang Yushi was playfully winking at him.

"Yushi, let's not joke about this. I'm really tired. Let's get to the hotel and rest early."

"So eager to go to the hotel? Alright then, if you desire it, I have no problem."

"Pfft..." Song Xiaodong burst out laughing and said, "Yushi, I never thought you'd make such a suggestive joke."

Yang Yushi smirked and said, "I'm just a regular person too. Besides, in front of you, I have no privacy. Making such jokes seems no big deal."

"Cough cough..." Song Xiaodong felt completely outmatched in conversation with Yang Yushi, and coughed lightly twice, "Alright, feel free to joke then."

Yang Yushi softly laughed again, seemingly a bit proud of her victory. She looked more like a mischievous girl rather than a talented woman.

In a BMW Mini car, after Song Xiaodong got in, he couldn't help but laugh and cry, "You're driving a car that little girls drive?"

Yang Yushi started the car and said, "It's just a means of transportation. It doesn't matter what you drive. I don't like flashy cars."

"However, driving such a car suggests a youthful spirit. Otherwise, it's hard to like this model."

"Maybe, ever since I was a kid, I've experienced too much and done too many things, losing the childlike fun most girls have. So, I occasionally indulge in other ways."

"That sounds reasonable. Psychologically, people often crave what they lack."

"Xiaodong, you understand psychology too?"

"I'm a doctor, so naturally, I've done some research on human psychology."

"They say people who study psychology can easily see through others' thoughts. So, in front of you, not only do I have no physical privacy, do I also have no other privacy?"

Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, "If I had such abilities, I'd be the king of the world now."

Yang Yushi turned her head to look at Song Xiaodong with a faint smile, "You are already the King of Ningjian, maybe one day you'll become the King of China."

"Stop!" Song Xiaodong's face turned dark, "Don't place such a big hat on me. I don't have such ambitions. I prefer a relaxed and carefree life. If this gets out, I fear I'll have no place in China."

"I'm just joking. Look how nervous you are." Yang Yushi chuckled lightly.

"That's a big joke."

Yang Yushi's fingers gently moved on the steering wheel, "Our current positions are no longer ordinary. Every word and deed can have significant repercussions, so we must truly speak and act cautiously. The higher your status, the more cautious you should be, not the more willful."

Song Xiaodong squinted his eyes and said, "Yushi, are you implying something else?"

Yang Yushi turned to look at Song Xiaodong again, "I'm just casually expressing some thoughts. Could it be that you, Xiaodong, have more important information?"

Song Xiaodong's heart raced; chatting with Yang Yushi was always unpredictable. He laughed it off and said, "Yushi, your Yang family has a certain status in Beijing, and so does the Su Family. I'm just hoping to get some information from you, yet you're asking me."

Yang Yushi laughed, "That's not necessarily true. The people closest to the emperor are often the ones he guards against the most."

"Pfft, we're not in ancient times; there's no emperor." Song Xiaodong feigned confusion, while secretly admiring Yang Yushi's apparent insight into the higher-ups' direction.
