Chapter 736
Pearl immediately understood why Celine was upset.
"Of course not. I just…" Celine was so embarrassed she just wanted to hide in a hole.
"Alright, I''m starving. Can we order now?" Pearl tried to break the awkwardness.
Ss turned and nodded. "Get the server to take our orders then."
The three of them sat there in an ufortable silence, and Pearl suddenly realized that inviting
them to dinner had been impulsive. She should have just given them a bonus.
Throughout the meal, Celine kept her head down, while Ss continued to stare at Pearl.
Finally, at the end of the difficult dinner, Pearl smiled and waved her phone around. "Check your
phones when you get home. I have a surprise for you."
Their phones chimed immediately after her announcement.
Celine checked her phone and saw that Pearl had transferred 150 thousand dors to her. She had
never seen that much money before. She held her thumping heart and felt like she was working
with the right person.
"Are we leaving now?" Ss asked.
Pearl looked at him curiously. "Is there something else you''d want to do?"
"Let''s go to a bar. But if you don''t want to, it''s fine."
Celine had never been to a bar, so she shook her head. "It''s probably not a good idea to go to
ces like that. They can be dangerous." She was indeed an innocent girl, and she had strict rules
for herself about avoiding such ces.
After saying that, she looked at Ss with a serious face. "You shouldn''t go to ces like that too,
Ss. People who go there aren''t good. If something happens, you could be in danger."
Celine assumed that Ss had probably frequented bars before and might be a regr at such
ces. She said this to sound pure and innocent in his eyes. With her innocent appearance, she
hoped to appeal to him.
Pearl touched her forehead. "Celine is right. We should go home." While it was true that there might
be some danger at a bar, with her around, no one would dare harm them. But she didn''t want to
corrupt the girl.
"Alright, I''ll send you back then," Ss offered.
If he sent her home, how would Celine get back to her ce?
Pearl looked at Celine and noticed the awkward expression on her face. "You should send Celine
home," she suggested.

"I don''t like the smell of her perfume. She came here on her own earlier, and it''s just going back
home. It''s not a big deal," Ss refused.
Celine didn''t want to put herself in an embarrassing situation, so she stood up and said, "It''s fine. I
can go home by myself." With a hateful re at Ss, she picked up her bag and hastily left the
ce.
Pearl couldn''t help but sigh as she watched the delicate girl hurriedly leave. "Why can''t you be nicer
to her?"
"Why should I be nice to her? I don''t have feelings for her."
Pearl couldn''t help but lecture him. "She''s a girl. Men should treat women with respect."
However, Pearl realized that Ss was polite to all the other female coworkers, and it was only
Celine who received his cold treatment.
"She''s not like the other girls." Ss frowned with disgust. "Other girls wouldn''t throw themselves at
me." Celine had ideas that were inappropriate.
Pearl shrugged. As long as they could maintain a professional working rtionship, she didn''t mind
what their private rtionship was like.
"Alright, let''s not talk about her. Let me take you home," Ss said.
