It's almost the end of a workday, Wu was sitting in his office alone, playing around with the USB (so apparently I mistook USB as disks so the footages he has copied weren't in a disk but in a USB :P ), plugging it in and ejecting it again, playing the footages and paused it over and over again. As Shuai has said, this thing is eating away Wu's heart inside, if he doesn't solve this case earlier he will eventually get sick from this.

After pulling the USB out, Wu was feeling indignant, he plugged it in again.

Because he has seen it so many times now, he has no interest in watching it once again, Wu was waiting for a day where the moment he plugged in, there will be a hidden window popping out, and that will lead him to his 'truth', how wonderful will that be.

A hidden window...Wu was mumbling to himself.

Suddenly he came to a realization, his heart was pumping crazily fast.

Right! There was so much space left in the USB, there might be a hidden document somewhere! Wu excitedly moved his mouse, went on a journey to find that hidden file.

In the end, none. 

He refused to give up, he calculated the space that the footages took up, in the end, they were the same as the occupied space, so that also means there were no hidden files.

Wu's relit hope has been put out again.

'Mr. Wu, there's a beauty waiting for you outside.'

Beauty? Wu's declining mood has revived a little, he followed Lin down and scanned the whole lobby, he didn't see anyone so he gave a punch on Lin's stomach.

'Where's the beauty?'

'She's outside, she doesn't dare to come in without your permission.'

Wu smiled, 'Wow, she's the shy type?'

Then he walked right out.

After stepping out, he looked to his side and saw the 'beauty' that Lin was talking about, of course, he was regretful to give that comment before even seeing the actual person.

Yue Yue turned to Wu, 'Long time no see.'

Wu was rather polite, 'Yeah, long time no see, what brings you here?'

Yue Yue said, 'My house is renovating, we're installing the lights recently, someone recommended your company so I came by to take a look, and also to look at you.'

'Right on time', Wu thought to himself.

'Are you well?' Yue Yue asked.

Wu smiled, 'Barely getting by, how about you?'

'Me? How do I put it, it's alright.'

Wu found out Yue Yue has changed a lot since last year, her eyes weren't as despiteful as before, her tone wasn't as offensive as before, her movements and expression were similar back when they first met, even so, he knew this is just an illusion.

'I'll take you to look at some lights,' Wu said.

Yue Yue nodded and followed Wu in.

Wu let Lin get the product catalogue and patiently explained every detail to her, Yue Yue's gaze was drifting all over, sometimes she would blank out from staring at Wu's defined features.

'You can just take these lights, just as a gift from me,' Wu said.

Yue Yue displayed the classic protocol, 'How can I accept this.'

'Why can't you accept them?'

Not sure if it's because last time Yue Yue always scolded him for being petty, he has a scar from that past so now he treats Yue Yue generously. No matter if it's the breakup fee from last time, or the lights this time, if he was giving to Yue Yue he wouldn't even blink for once.
