Sticking to Mr.Chairman in This Life-Chapter 968: You Deserve the Best

"Is that so?" Ye Mubai paused his steps, his gaze calmly directed at Su Ge, "A waste? I don’t think so. You deserve the best."

Su Ge’s smile instantly froze on her face.

She stared blankly at Ye Mubai, unable to speak for a moment.

Deserve... the best?

Ye Mubai also didn’t move his gaze for a long time; the two stood under the warm sunshine, silently staring at each other.

Su Ge was the first to look away, turning her gaze to the roses in the yard, "I really didn’t expect the Empress to have such a beloved daughter, planting so many roses in the garden for her, even her own granddaughter can’t touch them. I wonder which Princess is so favored."

Su Ge was just looking for a topic to ease the awkwardness.

Ye Mubai’s eyes, like obsidian, grew deeper at her words.

He calmly directed his gaze to the roses in the garden, and in his deep black eyes, a faint light flickered.

"Princess Qingyi?"

When they finished lunch with the Empress and exited the dining room, Princess Qingyi was already waiting outside. Su Ge saw her holding two boxes of floral tea and immediately walked over, "Princess Qingyi, it’s so courteous of you to personally bring tea over."

There are so many servants in the Royal Family; she could have sent someone, no need to make the trip herself.

"Why does Miss Su still call me Princess? Just call me Qingyi," Princess Qingyi smiled slightly, then handed the two boxes of floral tea to Su Ge, "These teas are freshly made this year. Please take them home and enjoy, Miss Su."

Su Ge nodded lightly and accepted them politely.

After taking them, she glanced at them, her gaze deepened slightly. She thought for a moment and looked at Princess Qingyi, "Why... two boxes?"

With that question, Princess Qingyi glanced at Ye Mubai.

Su Ge had some understanding in her heart.

One of these boxes was probably intended for her to pass to Ye Mubai.

On the way back, Su Ge sat in the car holding the two boxes of tea, conflicted.

As she vacillated, she felt obligated.

Eventually, she steeled herself and handed one box of tea to the handsome man beside her, "Professor, I figured I can’t finish all this tea, why don’t you take a box to keep?"

Even if he doesn’t like drinking tea, he’s collected so much of it.

She’s not letting him drink it, just collect it, which should be fine, right?

After all, it was Princess Qingyi’s intention.

Since she accepted the gesture, she had to convey it.

The man who had been sitting quietly immediately turned his gaze.

He didn’t look at the tea in her hand but kept his eyes fixed on her.

Once their eyes met, the atmosphere in the car inexplicably started to become awkward again.

Actually, Ye Mubai’s gaze wasn’t really intimidating; it could even be described as gentle as water, not frightening at all.

But for some reason, Su Ge couldn’t help but feel timid looking at him.

Even several seconds of eye contact was quite stressful for her.

She silently retracted the tea she had extended, "I guess I’ll... just take it home and drink it slowly."

She lowered her head, not daring to look at the man’s eyes anymore.

The man never spoke, and after she withdrew the tea, he also withdrew his gaze.

Su Ge silently sighed in her heart.

Ye Mubai was truly a... person who doesn’t compromise.

Even if Princess Qingyi sent something, he wouldn’t accept it.

Even if someone else offered it on her behalf, he wouldn’t take it.

Such an arrogant yet principled man.

The car finally drove into the hotel.

Ye Mubai had booked his room before arriving, and their rooms were adjacent.
