“No, I was just in the director’s office,” Lin Wan explained first, then added happily, “Chen, Dream Phil company has made it to the finals.”
“Yes, I didn’t participate in the second-round selection,” Xiao Yichen told Lin Wan. To prove her capability this time, he voluntarily withdrew from the panel and let the other judges decide. “Wan’er, this time… it’s all thanks to your skills. Congratulations.”
“Mm,” Lin Wan replied joyfully.
“Shall I pick you up in the afternoon and have dinner with Zishen and Ziyan tonight?” Xiao Yichen inquired about Lin Wan’s availability.
As long as she agreed, he’d arrange to meet with Zishen and Ziyan.
“Sure, I’ll go along with your plan,” Lin Wan agreed.
After hanging up, Lin Wan lingered in the corridor for a moment before happily returning to the office to resume work.
Xiao Yichen ended the call in the East Mansion and contacted Luo Zishen and
Luo Ziyan to set a time and place.
Meanwhile, in a car at the airport, the mayor of Ancheng City was escorting his daughter back home.
“Dad, you didn’t tell anyone I’m coming back, did you?” Xu Yanxi leaned against her father and asked playfully.
“You explicitly instructed me not to inform anyone. How could I possibly betray your trust?” Xu Yaozhong replied to his daughter.
His daughter had returned today, and he had set aside his busy schedule to pick her up from the airport.
“That’s a relief,” Xu Yanxi said happily. She peered ahead and spoke with sincerity, “I’ve come back this time to surprise Yichen.”
With that, Xu Yanxi directed the driver up front, “Uncle Wang, head straight to the East Mansion.”
“Okay,” Uncle Wang replied.
Xu Yaozhong gazed at his daughter and smiled, “You! Your heart is filled with Yichen.”
“Of course, Dad. You must understand that Yichen is my future husband,” Xu Yanxi said proudly. She gazed out the window, feeling nervous and anticipation about meeting Xiao Yichen for the first time in so many years.
In the East Mansion, everyone in the company was busy at work when a stylishly dressed woman entered, capturing the attention of those around her.
Xu Yanxi, however, paid no heed to the curious looks. She donned her sunglasses and confidently strolled toward the elevator in her ten-centimeter high heels.
The onlookers waiting for the elevator were taken aback when they saw the fashionable woman. They watched as she entered the CEO’s private elevator, and the doors closed behind her.
“Could she be… the CEO’s… girlfriend?”
“It’s highly likely. Look, she’s taking the exclusive elevator for the CEO. Only the CEO or those he permits have access to it.”
“Wow, so this woman is the CEO’s wife?”
“It seems that way…”
In the CEO’s top-floor office at the East Mansion, Xiao Yichen was diligently working at his desk. You Luan was seated across from him, engrossed in his tasks.
When the elevator dinged, and the doors slowly opened, You Luan instinctively looked up at the newcomer.
“You are…” You Luan was bewildered. The voice was somewhat unfamiliar, and the woman’s sunglasses concealed most of her face, making it difficult to identify her.
“You Luan,” Xu Yanxi called out, aware that he was Xiao Yichen’s assistant.
You Luan was momentarily stunned and remained silent. The voice was unfamiliar, and he didn’t seem to recognize her.. How does she know my name? Does she know me?
