12:00.
Zhuang Wen took Lu Yan Yan back to school.
In the end, he still made noodles for Lu Yan Yan and used the leftover vegetables from last night's grocery shopping to cook a few dishes. The two of them ate sweetly for an hour.
After they finished eating, he reluctantly took Lu Yanyan back to school.
Although Yan Yan kept pestering him for a reward while they were in the car, it didn't last long.
Because Lu Yan Yan's lips were already red and swollen from the reward, it would be a little painful to touch them for a long time.
After instructing Lu Yanyan to buy some ointment to apply to her lips, and watching her enter the campus, Zhuang Wenfang drove back to the company.
As soon as he entered the company lobby, he was stopped by several pretty girls at the front desk.
"Zhuang Wen?!"
"It's lunchtime, Zhuang Wen, you're here?"
"Why are you so late? What were you doing this morning?"
Each girl said one sentence.
Zhuang Wen then walked to the front desk, grinning, and said, "What's wrong? Can't I come here for lunch?"
The group has a restaurant that offers good quality food at reasonable prices, specifically for the group's employees.
"Sure, who says it's not okay?"
"You may not be the president's secretary now, but you used to be. Who would dare to disrespect you then?"
"Maybe in a couple of days you'll be the president's secretary again, and once again one of his favorites!"
"If I become rich and powerful, I will not forget you."
Several receptionist girls had bright smiles and sparkling eyes.
"Alright, I can't take the position of president's secretary. It's too tiring. I think only Secretary Zhang Yu can do it well."
Zhuang Wen shook his head directly.
"Don't be modest, Secretary Zhuang, we're still waiting for you to take the position."
The receptionists all joked around.
"No, you all know what kind of person Ms. Lu is. Just look at her work ethic, who in our company can compare to her?"
Zhuang Wen shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.
Zhuang Wen, a grown man, chatted casually with these pretty young women at the front desk.
It was lunchtime for the group's employees, so apart from them, there was no one else on the floor.
But then, the crisp, clean sound of high heels clicking against the floor echoed through the lobby.
The moment they hear it, everyone can picture a decisive and efficient figure in their minds.
Following the sound, I looked in that direction.
The receptionists, who had been laughing hysterically, suddenly stopped, their pupils constricted, and their faces turned deathly pale.
When Zhuang Wen turned around, the smile on his lips vanished instantly.
A slender and graceful figure walked in from outside the lobby.
She wore a gray office lady suit, with a white shirt on top and a straight skirt that reached her knees. Black stockings covered her slender calves and jade feet, and black high heels that gleamed and clicked as she walked. Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were cold and aloof, exuding an air of authority.
The road was covered in snow!
Looking at Lu Ruxue, who exuded a powerful aura, even though Zhuang Wen was not afraid, he felt a little guilty.
He understood Lu Ruxue's personality very well.
Despite her aloof demeanor and seemingly indifferent attitude, as if nothing else matters and only her work is on her mind.
Only those who got to know him well knew just how jealous Lu Ruxue really was!
Especially towards him and strange women!
"Hello, Mr. Lu!"
The girls at the front desk realized what was happening and immediately bowed respectfully.
Zhuang Wen also greeted him awkwardly, "President Lu."
Lu Ruxue's face was as cold as frost, and her whole body exuded a chilling aura, which made Zhang Yu behind her tremble with fear.
She couldn't understand why President Lu, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, suddenly became so irritable, like a sunny day turning cloudy—or rather, a sunny day turning into a downpour, accompanied by thunder and lightning, which was extremely frightening.
Lu Ruxue showed no reaction to their greetings. Her gaze was clear yet terrifyingly cold, especially when it swept over Zhuang Wen, as if cutting flesh off him with swords.
"Oh no, she's jealous again!"
Not to mention that Zhuang Wen was already terrified.
Zhang Yu was dressed in a black office lady suit, paired with flesh-colored stockings and high heels, giving her a sophisticated urban look.
She was tall and slender, standing behind Lu Ruxue. She secretly glanced at Zhuang Wen and gave him a helpless, bitter smile.
Click! Click!
Lu Ruxue turned around and went straight to the elevator, taking Zhang Yu with her without lingering in the lobby at all.
Watching her figure disappear at the top of the stairs, both the receptionist and Zhuang Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Lu, you're amazing!"
"Her eyes were so cold. I felt like I was in an ice cellar just now. It was so stressful!"
"As expected of the group president, just that aura alone would scare most people!"
The receptionists whispered to each other, sticking their tongues out with lingering fear.
"Zhuang Wen, were you scared just now?"
A girl looked up at Zhuang Wen and asked with a grin.
Zhuang Wen sneered, "What do you think? President Lu didn't do anything, what's there to be afraid of?"
"I don't believe you, you're lying!"
"Exactly! I saw you were sweating just now, and you even wiped it with your hands!"
"That's right, we all know each other, so stop bragging in front of us."
"He brags without thinking!"
The girls looked at Zhuang Wen with disdain.
Zhuang Wen raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you guys know? I was just a little tired from standing here chatting with you, not because of President Lu. Sigh, I can only say you're all short-sighted and don't even know this much..."
"Um?"
Several girls simultaneously gave him the middle finger.
"Let me put this in your words: even if President Lu asked me to go to her office right now, I would go without batting an eye!"
Zhuang Wen patted his chest and said shamelessly.
But the "retribution" came quickly.
Click! Click!
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of high heels hitting the ground echoed from afar.
He subconsciously looked up.
Zhang Yu, a tall and slender urban woman, walked over gracefully in high heels.
Zhuang Wen inwardly knew something was wrong, because Zhang Yu's bright and clear eyes were staring straight at him, clearly indicating that she wanted to talk to him about something!
He just didn't know whether it was her who wanted to see him or Lu Ruxue who wanted to see him.
"Zhuang Wen, President Lu wants you to go to her office."
Zhang Yu's gentle and pleasant voice was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, leaving Zhuang Wen completely stunned.
"Oh, okay, I'll go right away."
Zhuang Wen had no choice but to nod.
"Hehe, it came true!"
"Zhuang Wen, I have to admire you. You were able to guess what President Lu was thinking and knew she would call you to her office. You'd better seize the opportunity!"
"Go, Zhuang Wen. We're here to cheer you on and pray for you."
"Go quickly, don't keep Mr. Lu waiting."
A few receptionists seized the opportunity to whisper and make fun of them.
Zhuang Wen sighed helplessly, waved to them, and said weakly, "I'm leaving now. Remember to pray for me so that I won't have to face Mr. Lu's wrath as much as possible."
"We're sure!"
Amidst the smiling eyes of several girls, Zhuang Wen walked towards Zhang Yu.
"Let's go."
Zhang Yu smiled slightly, swaying her pert buttocks, and led him towards the elevator.
