The reason why he said that was because he felt that with her current appearance, she should at least be at the Divine level. Since that was the case, why would she covet something that belonged to a mortal like him?

However, since she said so, he might as well give her one. After all, it was just a gift.

"What kind of gift do you want? I'll get my secretary to buy it."

Hearing that, Xuan Shuang was a little disappointed. He was talking about his secretary, not buying it himself.

However, thinking that he was only a mortal who did not know her, she did not care anymore.

"No need. I was just joking with you."

Ye Sijue frowned, he did not say anything, and suddenly went silent, causing the entire office to become extremely quiet.

Xuan Shuang stood there, and upon seeing that he did not have the slightest bit of passion towards her, she felt slightly embarrassed. She paused for a moment, and then opened her mouth to break the silence, "Could it be that you're not curious at all about who I am?"

Hearing her ask that, Ye Sijue slowly raised his head and looked at her, saying, "Why do I need to know who you are? It doesn't seem necessary."

His words were too straightforward, and Xuan Shuang was unable to find a reason to refute them.

'Forget it. 'Originally, she came down here to see if he was safe, but she didn't expect him to be attacked. Since she was forced to reveal her true appearance, there was no need to expose her immortal foundation to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After all, this secret was not suitable for many people to know.

And she had kept this secret for thousands of years. Why should she be in such a hurry?

"Since you're fine, then I can relax. However, in order to guard against that monster's sudden attack, I gave you this piece of ice, and if you encounter any danger, you can melt it with the fire. I will help you escape this danger."

With that, she placed a block of frost in front of him and turned to leave.

"Wait." Ye Sijue's voice sounded.

Hearing that, Xuan Shuang paused, and turned to look at him. In his heart, he suddenly raised a strand of hope that he would be able to keep her alive for a while longer.

But, in the next second, he heard Ye Sijue say:

"Can you please leave through the gate?"

"Huh?" Xuan Shuang was startled.

Ye Sijue paused for a while, and then said:

"I don't want a hole in my office all of a sudden."

Xuan Shuang finally understood the meaning behind his words. So he was referring to this, she thought that he was trying to keep her here.

She felt a little disappointed, then said, "Okay, as you wish."

With that, she turned and walked to the door, waving her sleeves towards the scarlet door, causing the door to suddenly open. Xuan Shuang turned to look at him, and then slowly walked out.

When his figure disappeared at the door, Ye Sijue heaved a sigh of relief.

He looked at the block of ice on the table and rubbed his temple with a headache. There were too many strange things happening today, so he needed to calmly digest them.

And right now, just like him, Gao Yu, who was standing outside the door, needed to calm down and let himself digest everything.

Ever since Li Feier entered, he had never taken a step out of the door.

He urgently wanted to know what was going on inside, if Ye Sijue was in danger, he even wanted to break down the door and enter, but he discovered that the wooden door suddenly became as hard as stone. Indestructible.

Gao Yu understood clearly that this was perhaps Li Feier's demonic technique. He had no way to guard outside and could only be anxious.

Time passed minute by minute, just as Gao Yu was panicking, the door suddenly opened.

Gao Yu immediately went forward to welcome him.

But the one he saw was not Ye Sijue nor was it Li Feier, but a beautiful yet foreign woman.

Gao Yu was actually at a loss for words. He stared at the woman's figure, and the first question that came to mind was who she was.

And then the second question was, when did she go in?

After all, he had always been standing guard outside the door and had never seen her enter.

He stared at the woman in shock and was about to step forward to ask when the woman walked past him as if she couldn't see his presence. She had an extremely cold aura around her.

It was as if a cold breeze had just passed him, causing him to shiver uncontrollably.

Damn it, just when Gao Yu thought that something was strange …

"Gao Yu."

Ye Sijue's voice suddenly came from inside.

Gao Yu heard Ye Sijue and immediately retracted his train of thoughts, then walked in.

When he entered the office, the first thing he did was to make sure that Ye Sijue was still alright. When he was sure that he was still sitting there perfectly fine, he started on the second thing, and that was to look for Li Feier.

Only, his gaze swept across the office but he could not find any trace of Li Feier.

Strange, where is he?

Could it be that it had grown wings and flown away?

Ye Sijue saw that he acted very sneaky the moment he entered and frowned, "What are you looking at? It's like you're a thief."

Gao Yu hurriedly stood up, but looked at him and said, "Director Ye, I'm just looking for Miss Li."

But Ye Sijue frowned, "There's no need to look, she's already gone."

"What?" Gao Yu was surprised, but when she thought about how Li Feier was not an ordinary person, she decided not to continue kissing him.

"Are you alright?" Gao Yu changed the topic.

However, Ye Sijue frowned and glanced at him, "What can I do for you?"

Gao Yu also felt that he was overthinking things. After all, this place was as neat as ever, with just one look, he could tell that nothing had happened.

However, he was still a bit worried. "Then, Miss Li …"

Before Gao Yu could even finish his words, he was interrupted by Ye Sijue.

"Alright, let's not talk about her anymore. I have something to ask you."

Ye Sijue suddenly said.

Gao Yu immediately nodded, "Please ask."

Ye Sijue stopped to organize his thoughts before asking, "Why do you think Su Jianjian is unwilling to renew my contract?"

Gao Yu was startled. He wasn't Su Jianjian, how would he know?

However, he suddenly discovered an important problem. It was that he had locked himself in his office to prevent anyone from entering and exiting because of this incident.

Also, to his surprise, the Assistant Su rejected the contract?

Seeing that Gao Yu was still in a daze, and did not answer, Ye Sijue urged her impatiently, "I'm asking you a question."

Only then did Gao Yu remember to confirm, "Are you saying that the Assistant Su refused to renew the engagement?"

But Ye Sijue just stared at him speechlessly, "Nonsense."

Gao Yu was somewhat innocent, but he did not dare ask anymore. He paused for a moment before saying, "I think the Miss Su must have his own reason."

Hearing Gao Yu's answer, Ye Sijue couldn't help but glare at him.

He had asked in vain.

Forget it, there was nothing that elm would be able to think of.

He hesitated, then said, "So you can try to think in the same direction, like she's not the same as us."

Hearing Ye Sijue's reminder, Gao Yu felt that it made sense, and nodded.

"That's right, it's precisely because of this reason that the Assistant Su is definitely not the same as us."
