Yan Xixi broke into a sweat. No wonder the Empress Dowager used so many internet slang phrases, like "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but you look like a loser to me." She had always found it odd; how could an old lady be so fashionable? So that was the reason.

Yan Xixi glanced at the time and nearly jumped. She had been listening to the "boorish man" spout nonsense and brag about all sorts of economic trends. She was so engrossed that she had completely forgotten the time.
"No, I have to go back! I'd originally scheduled three hours for studying this afternoon, and you've made me waste all of them! Now I'll definitely have to work overtime until two in the morning... My schedule is ruined!"
He grabbed her hand, grinning. "Since it's already so late, why don't we have dinner first?"
"I haven't finished my planned studies for today yet."
"Just take half a day off. You can make it up tomorrow."
