When the other people at the table saw this, they couldn't help but chime in with concern.
"CEO Su, are you alright?"
"CEO Su, what's wrong?"
Cheng Qingchong, who sat beside Su Zhinian, immediately pulled out a napkin and asked, "CEO Su, are you alright?"
As she asked, Cheng Qingchong passed the napkin to Su Zhinian.
Su Zhinian stared blankly at the spot he had just been staring at, oblivious to everything around him.
"His skin is all red. Quick, call the waiter to bring some ointment." CEO Zhang, who was closest to Su Zhinian, turned around to call the waiter who was standing outside the door.
"Bring a cold water towel over first," Director Sun also followed up.
Cheng Qingchong noticed Su Zhinian's lack of response, so she leaned closer and called softly, "CEO Su?"
Su Zhinian caught a whiff of Cheng Qingchong's perfume. His brows twitched, and he turned toward Cheng Qingchong.
"CEO Su, is your wrist okay?" Meeting Su Zhinian's gaze, Cheng Qingchong asked softly. Then, she extended the napkin that she had been holding toward Su Zhinian.
Su Zhinian was startled, and his dark eyes slowly fell to his wrist. He looked at the patch of red on his fair skin, and a flash of confusion crossed his eyes.
When did he get scalded? How come he doesn't feel any pain?
The waiter followed his order to bring a towel soaked in cold water. He passed it to Su Zhinian with both hands and said, "Sir."
Su Zhinian stared at the wound like he was deep in thought, and he didn't respond.
The waiter called out, "Sir," before raising his head to look at Cheng Qingchong in confusion.
Cheng Qingchong reached out to accept the cold towel and placed it on Su Zhinian's wrist. "CEO Su, you should use the cold compress first."
Before the towel touched Su Zhinian's skin, he pulled his arm away and replied lightly, "There's no need."
He raised his head and looked at the people around the table. Then, he slowly kicked the chair behind him and stood up. "This meal is on me. You guys continue. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
As they ate, everyone was chatting happily. Why did CEO Su suddenly seem to have changed into a different person?
The people around the table looked at each other before greeting Su Zhinian in unison, "CEO Su."

As if he knew what she was going to say next, Su Zhinian bent down to pick up the phone from the table and said in a light tone, "Stay here for the bill."
Then, without waiting for the people in the room to react, he picked up his suit jacket from behind his seat and walked out of the room.
When Su Zhinian exited the elevator, he accidentally knocked into someone. The person apologized to him, but he didn't react at all. He walked toward the entrance of Beijing Hotel with a blank expression on his face.
Su Zhinian stood in front of Beijing Hotel's revolving door for a while before turning to the convenience store to buy a pack of cigarettes.
Leaning against the streetlight, Su Zhinian lit a cigarette. This was the first cigarette he had smoked since he was a child. The first puff caused him to bend over and cough violently.
In the end, tears came out of his eyes.
