It was currently lunch break, and the employees were leaving the office building in small groups. The luxury cars that were parked outside attracted many people’s attention. But although they were curious, it wasn’t enough for them to stop them in their tracks.
After all, luxury cars weren’t that uncommon in the most prosperous city.
No one was allowed to stay parked here for too long. The security guard stepped forward to ask and found out that it was actually CEO Lu’s wife!
This news caused many people to start whispering into each other’s ears.
Everyone in the company knew that CEO Lu had gotten married and his wife had given birth. During work hours, there would always be some people gossiping about it. They had also discussed in private about potentially specious information they had read on messy forums and also who was CEO Lu’s true love. Was it Mrs. Lu or Shen Weiyin?
If Mrs. Lu was truly CEO Lu’s true love, then why hadn’t he taken her out to any public events after their wedding? But if they were to say Shen Weiyin was CEO Lu’s childhood sweetheart and true love, CEO Lu didn’t seem like someone that would let himself suffer any grievances.
The excessive grudges and grievances that existed among prominent families that were written in tabloids were too terrifying. They just casually chatted about it during lunch when they were bored. It didn’t matter if it was real or not. It was just entertaining anecdotes to chat about with a cup of tea or after a meal. Still, no one dared to openly gossip about their boss in front of him.
They were surprised to see that Mrs. Lu had come to the company.
A lot of people raised their heads to get a look at Mrs. Lu, who so many people had talked about.
When Lu Beichuan walked out of the elevator, his eyes were sharp like arrows and knives and his expression was calm. He strode towards the front doors.
The group of employees that encountered him all moved to the side. They nodded and respectfully greeted Lu Beichuan, “Hello CEO Lu.”
Lu Beichuan ignored them. All of his attention was captured by the conspicuous Rolls-Royce parked outside of the building.
When he had gotten Ye Zhen’s call, his heart had almost fallen out. He was very anxious.
This woman always made him worry. She was out running about when her one-month recuperation period had just ended. What would he do if something happened to her?
Lu Beichuan sighed and stopped by the car door.
The driver saw Lu Beichuan’s expression and promptly lowered his head. He secretly questioned what was the difference? CEO Lu’s attitude towards his wife was fine when they were at home. Why was he acting so differently when they were outside?
The driver didn’t dare to say anything.
Standing in front of the car door, Lu Beichuan leaned over and opened the door. He very carefully helped Ye Zhen, who was holding the baby, out of the car.
Ye Zhen had only taken one step out of the car and leaned out when Lu Beichuan tightly wrapped his arm around her waist. That force was just the right amount for Ye Zhen to stably step out of the car.
Ye Zhen tilted her head back to look at the skyscraper that could claim to be the third tallest building in the city. She sighed. The Lu’s were truly very rich. This skyscraper towered in the clouds, too imposing.
Lu Beichuan looked at her profile. His tone softened, “Why did you come?”
Ye Zhen tilted her head and smiled at Lu Beichuan. “I brought Zhouzhou with me to bring you a lunchbox. Mr. Lu, aren’t you touched?”
This type of sweetness mixed in with his worry gave Lu Beichuan mixed emotions. However, seeing the smile on Ye Zhen’s face, he swallowed down the words he wanted to say. He glanced at the sleeping baby in Ye Zhen’s arms. “Zhouzhou’s asleep? Let me hold him.”
Ye Zhen put Zhouzhou into his arm. Lu Beichuan held Zhouzhou with one arm and kept the other arm around Ye Zhen’s waist as they walked into the building.
Behind them, the driver closed the car door. Seeing how intimate they looked from the back, he sighed in relief.
He had thought CEO Lu’s attitude towards his wife had changed. But no, that wouldn’t make sense. The two of them seemed stuck at the hips when they were at home. He had overthought.
