Hearing Ji Chen’s words, Gu Xiao and Chu An looked at each other, then looked at Ji Chen with a smile.

“It’s good that you think that way.”

Ji Chen pointed at Gu Xiao. “Since you are worried about me, I will leave the Ji Group as soon as possible so that you can take action.”

As for how to return the Ji Group without attracting the attention of Ji Gao and Old Master Ji, he still had to plan.

After that, Gu Xiao, Chu An, and Ji Chen chatted about work for a while before changing the topic.

“Other than the comments about that girl just now, 1 also saw the comments about you, Xiaoxiao.” At this point, Ji Chen paused and looked at Gu Xiao with an indescribable gaze. “I saw the comments below saying that you like acting and want to be an actress in the future?”

Ji Chen had a hard time saying the word “actress”.

After all, he had never seen any intentions to act from his sister before. Instead, he felt that the other party wanted to expand the company.

Hearing Ji Chen’s words, not to mention Chu An, even Gu Xiao herself was stunned for a moment.

“Brother Chen, what did you say just now? Xiaoxiao said that she likes to act?” Chu An looked at Gu Xiao in surprise before saying to Ji Chen.

Ji Chen nodded and gestured for the other party to give him the tablet.

Chu An subconsciously followed Ji Chen’s instructions. Not long after, Ji Chen returned the tablet. Chu An’s gaze fell on the tablet, and he immediately saw Gu Xiao on the tablet screen.

“My name is Gu Xiao. What I like is… acting. 1 want to be an actress in the future.” Gu Xiao’s voice sounded from the tablet.

When Gu Xiao heard the voice, her body tilted slightly in Chu An’s direction. Then, she saw what she had said on the variety show previously.

For a moment, Gu Xiao did not know whether to laugh or cry.

When she was asked what she liked, she felt that this so-called reality show was just an act, so she said this. She did not expect that Ji Chen would take her words seriously when he heard them now.

After Chu An finished watching the video, he looked up at Gu Xiao. “If Xiaoxiao wants to act, then I support it too!” Perhaps he could even be Gu Xiao’s manager!

Gu Xiao reached out and secretly pinched Chu An’s waist.

“I didn’t want to be an actress! I just said that casually!” Gu Xiao said as she tightened her grip.

Chu An felt waves of pain coming from his waist. He wanted to dodge, but he didn’t dare to really move. Afraid of angering Gu Xiao, he could only forcefully endure it.

When Gu Xiao finally moved her hand away from his waist, he could not help but reach out to rub the piece of flesh that was still hurting at his waist.

On the other side, Ji Chen saw Gu Xiao and Chu An’s small actions. He felt a little amused and relieved at the same time. It seemed that Chu An really liked Gu Xiao and sincerely cared for her, so he was relieved.

Ji Chen looked at her for a while and kept the smile in his eyes.

“Alright, since you don’t really want to be an actress, what do you plan to do in the future, Xiaoxiao? Have you thought about your major in university?”

He changed the topic, unwilling to stay too long on the matter of acting. After all, this was a topic he had started. If Xiaoxiao realized that… He didn’t want to make Xiaoxiao angry like Chu An.

Hearing this, Gu Xiao and Chu An’s expressions turned serious.

Gu Xiao lowered her eyes and thought for a long time, but still did not have any good ideas. She could not help but look at Ji Chen expectantly. “Brother, do you have any suggestions?”

Chu An followed Gu Xiao’s gaze and looked at Ji Chen.

After all, Ji Chen’s suggestion was also related to his future university direction.

Being stared at by two pairs of expectant eyes, one of which belonged to the sister he liked, Ji Chen was in a dilemma.

When he was studying, he had already thought of what he liked and what direction he would develop in the future. Therefore, before the college entrance examination, he had already applied to study abroad and leave the country.

However, while he was decisive in making his own decisions, when this concerned Gu Xiao’s future, he did not dare to make a decision easily.

Actually, based on Gu Xiao’s current status, she had a chance for trial and error. No matter what major she studied in university, it would not cause too much damage to Gu Xiao’s future.

But even so, he hoped that Gu Xiao could have a good time in university..
