Before, she did not even know who was President Chen was and had no clue. Now, she finally got a little bit of a clue and would certainly make good use of this and gradually let President Chen like her.

The recording of last night’s program ended in the early morning. With the subsequent arrangement, the time was already very late. Ye Sui went to bed as soon as she got home.
At nine o’clock in the morning the next day, Renjie called Ye Sui to the company through a phone call. It was all trivial matters, but it required Ye Sui’s presence.
Ye Sui only slept for a few hours, so the second she left the company, she was almost too sleepy to open her eyes and went back to sleep.
Ye Sui had a long nap. When she woke up, it was getting dark. She slept for too long, and her mind was a bit dazed. She checked her cell phone on the bedside table and looked at the time. It was 6 p.m. and not the time for Chen Shu to go home.
From noon till now, Ye Sui had not eaten anything. She stood from the bed to cook something casual. After all, there was still a schedule tomorrow.
Ye Sui turned on the light and walked to the door. When she was about to open the door, she found that the door handle could not be open. Ye Sui frowned, and then she squeezed a few more times, but the handle still did not move. This showed one thing, she was trapped in the room.
Ye Sui was a little flustered. She ran back to the bed and covered the quilt to avoid seeing something she should not look at later. She reached out her hand from the gap in the quilt and held her cell phone.
At this time, Chen Shu was checking a batch of documents in the office. All of a sudden, his mobile phone on the table rang. It was Ye Sui.
Chen Shu picked up and heard Ye Sui’s voice came from the other end of the phone. Since Ye Sui was hiding under the quilt, her voice was a little stuffy, “Chen Shu, do you still have the key to your room?”
“What is the matter?” Chen Shu’s tone was calm.
“The door lock is broken. I am trapped in the room and cannot get out. Please help me open the door when you get home at night.”
Hearing Ye Sui’s words, Chen Shu immediately stood up and quickly walked to the door. As he walked, he said, “I will come now.”
“Oh, no ……” Before Ye Sui could finish speaking, Chen Shu hung up the phone. Moreover, there was a beeping busy tone from the mobile phone. Ye Sui felt a little strange but did not think much about it.
Chen Shu came out of the office and walked directly to the elevator.
Wang Chuan was holding the document and preparing to go to Chen Shu. However, he only to see Chen Shu suddenly leave the office and did not even wear a coat, look in a hurry.
“President?” Wang Chuan quickly walked a few steps, trying to stop Chen Shu.
Chen Shu did not hear Wang Chuan’s voice. He was standing in front of the elevator, and the elevator doors just opened. He boarded the elevator and immediately pressed the button to reach the parking lot.
At the moment when Wang Chuan arrived, the elevator door just closed. Wang Chuan has never seen Chen Shu this picture, ‘President what is going on?’
Chen Shu got into the driver’s seat, turned the steering wheel sharply, and the car sped towards home.
Chen Shu’s eyes were on the road and his facial expression was very calm. However, it was quiet and a little unusual.
The night was getting darker and darker, and the street lights were on, the neon lights were flickering. The light that passed over Chen Shu’s face showed his well-defined features. His fingers on the steering wheel were slightly tightened.
Chen Shu shortened the time to get home from the company by half. It was not long before Ye Sui heard the noise outside. Chen Shu arrived home so soon.
“Chen Shu?” Footsteps came from the door, slightly urgent.
Ye Sui heard the sound of unlocking and rustling. The key inserted into the lock’s eye, and after a few turns, the door remained unopened. The sound of the key suddenly stopped, the footsteps outside the door disappeared. It seemed Chen Shu left.
Only after a few seconds later, Chen Shu came back. He suddenly opened his mouth and uttered in a muffled voice: “Get out of the way. Do not stand at the door.”
Ye Sui subconsciously did as Chen Shu said, but she did not understand what Chen Shu wanted to do. Her voice was full of doubts: “What are you going to do?”
Chen Shu confirmed that Ye Sui had already stood far away. He picked up the stool in his hand and threw it hard at the door lock.
Bang!
