Chapter 33 We'll go to the island for the New Year in a few days.

Lin Zhao even felt that what she did was correct.

At least in his own view, it was the right thing to do.

This way, Fu Yansheng wasn't put in a difficult position, and his own safety was also guaranteed.

Lin Zhao even wanted to give herself a thumbs up.

With everything resolved, Lin Zhao could finally relax.

But Lin Zhao's happiness didn't last long.

One day, after having afternoon tea with his employees, Lin Zhao noticed that same gaze again as soon as he left the floor.

This time, in fact, it happened at the company.

Lin Zhao took a deep breath.

Could it be that weirdo in the company?

Lin Zhao thought to herself.

He might have been oblivious to such gazes before, but after being frightened, Lin Zhao felt he became increasingly sensitive to them.

Lin Zhao could sense when others looked at him.

But most of the glances were not malicious.

Only those intense, aggressive gazes sent a chill down Lin Zhao's spine.

Lin Zhao almost took a deep breath and jogged into the company elevator.

Lin Zhao nervously pressed the floor button, then stared intently at the outside of the elevator. The elevator doors slowly closed, but Lin Zhao was still not completely at ease.

Suddenly, a hand slipped into the gap in the elevator door.

The elevator doors reopened.

Lin Zhao's wide eyes were filled with fear, but when her gaze fell on the man, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was Fu Yansheng.

Lin Zhao quickly walked towards Fu Yansheng.

Her eyes were filled with fear, as if she wanted to hide herself next to Fu Yansheng.

Lin Zhao wished he could shrink and cling to Fu Yansheng. He always thought he could protect himself from perverts, but he never expected that he could protect himself at home but not at the company.

With so many employees on one floor of the Fu Group, I can't just arbitrarily let Fu Yansheng find someone and fire them like I would at home.

"What's wrong?" Fu Yansheng asked with some concern, looking at Lin Zhao's appearance.

His gaze was gentle and accommodating, but his tone held a hint of doubt.

Upon hearing Fu Yansheng's voice, Lin Zhao instinctively reached out and grabbed Fu Yansheng's sleeve.

Fu Yansheng noticed that Lin Zhao was acting strangely, but considering that they were in an elevator and there were surveillance cameras, he didn't ask her anything further.

A silence ensued until the two returned to their office.

Fu Yansheng then led Lin Zhao to sit on the sofa, frowning as he asked her what had happened.

"Brother Fu..."

Lin Zhao recounted the whole story in a trembling voice.

Upon hearing Lin Zhao's words, Fu Yansheng took a deep breath and frowned.

Lin Zhao sat on the sofa like a quail, not daring to lift her head.

He knew what Fu Yansheng would say.

It's basically about not trusting him or something.

Lin Zhao kept this important matter a secret day after day.

At first, Lin Zhao thought that she could just ignore it, but later when something happened at home, Fu Yansheng wanted to go back to the old house.

Later, Lin Zhao felt that she had handled things well, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Lin Zhao hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

Her eyes still held a hint of grievance as she looked at Fu Yansheng.

Lin Zhao carefully observed Fu Yansheng's expression.

Seeing that Fu Yansheng's expression was getting worse and worse, Lin Zhao's voice became much weaker.

Lin Zhao stared at Fu Yansheng with her round eyes, her little mouth still chattering away trying to find something to say.

She insisted that she didn't want Fu Yansheng to worry, but it was seven parts truth and two parts falsehood!

I just don't know if Fu Yansheng believes it or not.

After Lin Zhao finished speaking, Fu Yansheng remained silent for a long time.

Lin Zhao's lips trembled as she tried to speak, knowing that she hadn't taken the matter seriously and that she had been too arrogant, thinking she could handle it herself.

But the result was that he made a mess of things himself.

Lin Zhao really has absolutely no talent in this kind of thing.

Fu Yansheng reached out and gently brushed Lin Zhao's hair back, stroking it lightly: "I know Zhao Zhao doesn't want me to worry, Zhao Zhao is very well-behaved."

Before Lin Zhao could relax, Fu Yansheng changed the subject:

"but……"

"I hope Zhaozhao can rely on me more."

Fu Yansheng's voice contained no blame, but rather became even gentler.

Hearing this, Lin Zhao felt even more guilty.

I felt completely lost.

"I'm sorry, Brother Fu, I think I've messed everything up."

Lin Zhao's eyes were slightly red. Fu Yansheng simply pulled her into his arms with a gentle touch.

His palms were warm as he gently patted Lin Zhao's back, comforting her.

"It's alright. Just stay by my side these next few days. As for the villa, I'll have Uncle Lai increase security."

Fu Yansheng gave his own answer.

Lin Zhao knew that Fu Yansheng would handle everything well, whether it was the company or anywhere else; as long as it was Fu Yansheng, he could definitely manage.

Lin Zhao nodded obediently and said "okay".

Fu Yansheng then discovered that ever since he said those words, a little tail had been following him.

Lin Zhao followed him almost everywhere he went.

He walked ahead, while Lin Zhao followed behind with her head down.

The assistants glanced at each other, their silence conveyed in their eyes.

Although they knew that Lin Zhao being appointed as an assistant was just a nominal position given to her by President Fu, President Fu had done more than enough so far.

They knew that Lin Zhao had hardly ever done any heavy work except for occasionally helping them with small tasks, but they never expected that President Fu would be so lenient with Lin Zhao at other times.

Fan Zhu reported the situation to Fu Yansheng without looking at him, unaware of the strange expressions on the faces of the assistants behind him.

Who is in charge of that plot of land in the North District?

Fu Yansheng looked at the document in his hand, his expression unchanged.

Without even thinking, Assistant Fan said, "It was in charge of President Chen, but the project has now been taken over by the Ji family."

Fu Yansheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.

He knew that Ji Xing was capable, but at the same time, he also learned something from Ji Xing.

Thinking of this, Fu Yansheng closed the document in his hand: "Tell Lin Qi to make preparations. The Ji Group has invited us to jointly develop that piece of land in the North District. As for Chen Mu, tell him to get back to see me."

Without asking why, Assistant Fan glanced at his assistant behind him and said, "Hurry up and contact President Chen. Make sure he returns to the group before the end of the workday today."

The assistant hurriedly left the office.

Go and inform Chen Mu.

After giving his instructions, Assistant Fan left with his assistants to carry out the tasks assigned by Fu Yansheng.

Fu Yansheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, with Lin Zhao beside him: "The New Year is coming soon."

As the weather gets colder, Beijing is gradually entering winter.

Lin Zhao turned her head slightly upon hearing this and nodded: "Yes, it's almost Chinese New Year."

At this time last year, Lin Zhao was still living in the Lin family. At that time, Lin Zhao could never have imagined that in just a few months, earth-shattering changes would occur.

And he could no longer spend the New Year at the Lin family home as the young master of the Lin family.

"I've made up my mind. I'm going to spend the Chinese New Year on an island in a few days."

Fu Yansheng must return to the Fu family every year for the Spring Festival, and Lin Zhao does not plan to return to the Lin family this year, after all, her status is awkward.

After much thought, I realized that spending the Lunar New Year alone on an island would be the most comfortable option.

Enjoying the sea breeze, walking on the beach, and basking in the sun.

The waves lapping at my feet made me feel like the whole world was mine.
