When Huangfu Ruixiang received Li Yiran’s call, he was a little surprised. Then, when he heard that Li Yiran had come over to deliver him lunch, he didn’t say much, just casually said that he would notify the front desk.
Not long after Li Yiran hung up the phone, the phone at the front desk rang as well.
After finishing the call, the receptionist stood up, looked at Li Yiran, nodded slightly, and said, “Miss, you may go upstairs now.”
“Humph!” Li Yiran let out a cold snort, then glared fiercely at the receptionist before heading towards the elevator.
She went straight to the elevator Ye Lengan had just taken and pressed the button.
At that moment, the receptionist from before had already jogged over. She looked at Li Yiran and said in a polite yet firm tone, “Miss, you cannot take this elevator. Please use the one next to it!”
“Why not?” After what had just transpired, Li Yiran was already in a terrible mood. Now, even taking the elevator required being ordered around, which she could not tolerate. “Didn’t Brother Ruixiang just call you earlier and ask you to let me up? Does he need to call you again before you’ll allow me to take the elevator?”
Facing Li Viran’s aggressiveness, the receptionist’s expression remained unchanged. She continued, “Miss, there’s been a misunderstanding. This is the CEO’s private elevator. Fingerprint verification is required to enter.”
Although the receptionist’s attitude was perfectly polite, her words felt like a slap in the face to Li Yiran. She felt the receptionist was mocking her. Glancing up, she saw that the elevator showed no sign of movement even after she had pressed the button.
Li Yiran flushed red, then pale. She didn’t even look at the receptionist again before heading to the adjacent elevator.
She swore that one day, she would make sure this condescending receptionist received the punishment she deserved.
On the other side, Ye Lengan had reached the top floor as well.
When the secretaries outside saw Ye Lengan arrive, they glanced up but did not react otherwise. After all, Ye Lengan had come to see the CEO not long before, so their good memories naturally remembered.
Ye Lengan waved her hand without letting Li San get close, then walked straight towards the office herself.
Upon hearing the door open, Huangfu Ruiling was not surprised. Clearly, he knew the person entering was Ye Lengan.
Ye Lengan went right to the desk, pulled out a chair, and sat down across from Huangfu Ruiling. Then with a smile, she said, “It’s almost lunchtime.
Handsome, want to grab a bite?”
“We can once I finish this little bit,” Huangfu Ruiling replied.
Ye Lengan rested her chin in her palm, gazing at Huangfu Ruiling. Suddenly she remarked, “Ruiling, 1 feel like 1 haven’t lost our bet yet!’
Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Huangfu Ruilings eyes flashed with surprise. He set down the documents in his hand and looked over at Ye Leng’an, raising his eyebrows. “If I remember correctly, you admitted defeat last night, didn’t
“Yes, I did!” Ye Lengan nodded, then continued, “But now that I think about it more, I don’t believe I’ve lost after all! Our wager was on whether or not Li Yiran could marry Huangfu Ruixiang. It’s true, she’s become Huangfu Ruixiangs lover now. However, Huangfu Ruixiang still isn’t married! So that means there’s still a chance Li Yiran could become a mistress who displaces the wife. 1 wouldn’t call myself the loser yet!’
The idea had just occurred to her when she saw Li Yiran downstairs. Even after Huangfu Ruixiangs irresponsible behavior last night, Li Yiran still hadn’t abandoned her hopes of marrying him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have shown up today.
This Li Yiran had both beauty and cunning wit. There was still the possibility she might succeed in the end. Plus, with Huangfu Ruixiang not married yet, the situation remained fluid.
“Why the sudden change of heart?” mused Huangfu Ruiling, curious. “You admitted defeat readily enough last night.. And now you have a fresh perspective?”
