Then Pearl hung up, and the call ended.
Silas's energy was drained, but the thought of seeing Pearl that night excited him, and he focused on his work.

Work ended at six in the evening. Pearl asked Silas to drive Celine to the restaurant first, as she had sother commitments to
attend to.
Celine believed it was a date and dressed up elegantly. She put on makeup and a jasmine-scented perfto enhance her
appearance, aiming to look like a fairy.
"I'm ready, Silas. Let's go." She stood in front of Silas, playing with her hair coquettishly.

However, Silas was unimpressed by her outfit. Instead, he frowned and took a step back.
"What's wrong?" Celine anxiously walked forward, seeing his expression.
"Don't cnear me." Silas couldn't hold back and sneezed loudly. "I'm allergic to perfumes."
Celine's face turned red. "Should I... wash it off?" There was no tfor a shower, and she hadn't known about his perfallergy.
Ultimately, they took separate cars to the restaurant instead of going together.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they entered the private room that Pearl had reserved and waited in silence.
Celine noticed that Silas wasn't ordering any food and grew curious. "Why aren't you ordering food?"
"It's not tyet," Silas replied, checking his watch. It was already five minutes past the agreed time, and he wondered why Pearl
hadn't arrived yet.
"Oh..." Celine said, not understanding the dining habits of wealthy people. She simply sat up straight and waited.
After ten minutes, Pearl finally arrived. As she opened the door, Celine's expression dropped. "Why are you here, Miss Pearl?"
Pearl sat down and paused. "Am | not supposed to be here?" After all, she was the one treating them to dinner, so it made sense
for her to be present.
Celine's mind raced but couldn't quite figure out the situation. "I suppose you can join us if you want," she said, forcing herself to
sound generous.
Pearl found the situation odd, particularly Celine's apparent irritation, which created an awkward atmosphere.

Silas, on the other hand, paid no mind to Celine's discomfort and leaned closer to Pearl with a smile. "Why do you smell so good
today?"
The remark had a flirtatious tone, and Pearl slapped his head. "Don't be ridiculous."
Silas wasn't concerned about Celine, as he was naturally daring. However, Celine felt differently. She was so angry that she would
have stomped her feet if they were alone.
Silas had invited her to dinner, so why was Pearl also invited? Wasn't he allergic to perfumes? Why was he so fascinated by Pearl's
scent?
"Alright, Celine, dinner is ontoday, so order whatever you like. Consider it a celebration for your first viral video collaboration,"
Pearl said, smiling as she handed Celine the menu.
Celine was taken aback. It was a celebration?
She glanced at Silas, who smirked mischievously as he said, "Did you think | was asking you out on a date?"
