“Come in,” he said casually, and his eyes did not leave the documents on the table. Xia Yixuan did not get up and continued lying on Chu Lui’s lap. However, from a certain angle, she looked like she was doing something disgraceful.

  When Xia Ruoxin came in, she saw Xia Yixuan’s pair of white legs exposed from under the table; and her high heels were kicked aside.

  Disgusting. She cursed in her heart.

  Then, she walked over and put the documents on the table.

  “CEO, this is the report you wanted.”


  “Mm, just place it there.” Chu Lui did not raise his head, but the slightly hoarse voice made the pen in his hand pause before moving again.

  “CEO, then I’ll leave first.” Xia Ruoxin walked backward and turned around to leave.

  Before the door opened, Chu Lui looked up; and his deep eyes darkened. He lowered his head, and Xia Yixuan’s hands were touching his legs in a very inelegant manner.

  “Xia Yixuan, stand up right now.”


  Once he finished his sentence, the pair of dark eyes squinted dangerously.

  Actually, Xia Yixuan did not sleep. She was purposely letting others see that. However, she knew what it meant by ‘stop before it went too far’.

  “Sorry.” She rubbed her eyes and hurriedly apologized.

  “I fell asleep. I’ll get up right away. I didn’t sleep well last night.” She purposely raised her face to let Chu Lui see her eye bags.

  After she finished her sentence, she stood up and wore the heels that dropped on the floor. Just that when she stood up with one leg, it was hard to not lose her balance so she directly fell into Chu Lui’s arms and touched the man’s sensitive part. She clearly felt that Chu Lui had a reaction. She was surprised and buried her soft body in Chu Lui’s arms to stir up the man’s inner desires. Just that, she was disappointed as Chu Lui actually ignored her and stood up.

  “I still have a meeting. Go back yourself.”


  When he finished his sentence, he arranged his clothes and walked out.

  “Secretary Lu, prepare for the meeting.”


  He paused in his tracks and told Xia Ruoxin. Xia Ruoxin’s lips curved up gently. “Okay, CEO, I know.”


  For some reason—every time he heard the word ‘CEO’, he felt that she was mocking him.

  Xia Ruoxin stood up and picked up the documents to be used before hugging them in her arms.

  In the meeting room, the others had not arrived; and there were only Chu Lui and Xia Ruoxin.

  “What did you see just now?”


  Chu Lui suddenly opened his eyes wide, and two sharp rays were shot out as he looked deeply into Xia Ruoxin’s eyes. It was an unfamiliar face with an unfamiliar voice, but there was an unspeakable familiarity of comfort.

  “Nothing. CEO, you’re thinking too much. I really didn’t see anything.” Xia Ruoxin laughed lightly, and her eyes curved up like a crescent moon to hide the feelings in her eyes.

  “Really?” Chu Lui did not believe her. At that point, Xia Yixuan was facing the table and there was no cloth on it. Once she lowered her head, she would have misunderstood.

  Of course, he did not want to explain too much as there was no such need.

  “You’re called Xiaohua?” Chu Lui asked again. Actually, he did not even know what he was asking.

  “My brother calls me Xiaohua. CEO, it’s my nickname.” Xia Ruoxin habitually shifted her pen from her left hand to the right and back to the left before finally pushing it to the right hand again.

  “You have a similar habit to someone I know. She also liked to shift her pens in between her hands to find the feeling. Actually, she’s left-handed, but she uses her right hand habitually.”


  “Really?” Xia Ruoxin gently caressed her wrist as she did not expect him to know even this. However, luckily, she was not really left-handed; if not, when she lost her left hand, it would be the same as other people losing their right hand.

  “I have always been like this. Is there a problem?” She raised her head and asked Chu Lui strangely. Her voice was kind of hoarse and had the feeling of someone being sleepy after waking up from a nap.

  Her five features were indeed unfamiliar to Chu Lui, and they were very unfamiliar no matter if it was her eyes, nose, mouth, or forehead. She looked very similar to Lu Jinrong. He was his good friend for many years so he would not be mistaken. He also knew that the Lu family had a girl and was Lu Jinrong’s sister, but he did not know if she was dead or alive.

  Lu Jinrong also rarely mentioned this sister of his, but not talking about her did not mean that she did not exist or that she was dead and not alive. Now, did she not show up already? The Lu family’s precious daughter—Lu Xiaohua. So he did not doubt if the person in front of him was from the Lu family.

  Chu Lui rubbed his forehead and still felt that his eyebrows were tensed up.

  Coincidentally, at this time, the door opened; and all the department heads came to have a meeting.

  Now, almost eighty-percent of all the shares of the Chu Enterprise were in Chu Lui’s hands so there were barely any shareholders. As for those wicked and perverse people, they were long gone.

  He was like this: ‘I can tolerate you, but when I can’t do that one day, it’s time for you to get lost. After you get lost, don’t ever think about coming back.’


  After all the department heads sat down at their seats, the lighting in the office darkened; and the big television wall behind Chu Lui lit up. This was their meeting agenda—things related to the Hang Yu harbor.

  Xia Ruoxin rapidly jotted down the important contents of the meeting before arranging it and sending it to the higher-ups in the office for them to work with.

  In the past, she did not even dare to think that one day she could participate in this kind of meeting, which could only be done by the white-collared workers. It turned out that Xia Ruoxin—with nothing accomplished, not much education, no capabilities, and would steal jobs from men—could also sit in at such a meeting filled with higher-ups and join a big company’s management meeting.

  When she thought about it at times, she felt that it was quite ironic.

  When the meeting ended, she packed her items and stood up to leave.

  “Secretary Lu,” Chu Lui suddenly called her.

  “Mm, CEO, why did you call me?”


  Xia Ruoxin asked politely and did it professionally with the unfamiliar attitude a subordinate would have with her boss.

  Chu Lui opened his mouth, but he did not know what he should say.

  “Forget it, go down.” He sighed lightly and pinched his forehead. The cramping pain continued, but this almost became his sickness.

  However, no matter how many times he checked, the results were that he was normal. It was just normal, but was he really normal? The doctors kept saying that he was normal, but he himself knew that he was not.

  He was really sick.
