On the top floor of Grand Hotel, in a luxury suite.
It was a mess. Chu Tianche stood in front of the French window in annoyance, a few ambiguous scratches still remaining on his bronze skin, and he frowned tightly.
His mind kept flashing back to that crazy night last night. That damn woman had slept with him and then disappeared without a trace! Thinking of this, he wanted to pull that woman out and beat her up...
A rapid knock on the door broke the silence in the room.
"President, your clothes." Zhou Chen's voice came from outside the door, with a hint of caution.
Chu Tianche turned around and opened the door. Zhou Chen was holding a beautifully packaged suit bag, with beads of sweat on his forehead, obviously having rushed all the way here.
He grabbed the suit pocket and nodded slightly as a greeting.
Zhou Chen observed Chu Tianche's expression and knew that he was in a bad mood. He didn't dare to say much. After handing him the suit bag, he tactfully retreated and gently closed the door.
Chu Tianche pulled his clothes from his suit pocket and put them on. The ironed suit wrapped around his sturdy frame, accentuating his austere demeanor. He walked to the mirror and adjusted his tie. The mirror reflected his angular face, his eyes deep and sharp.
He picked up his phone and called Zhou Chen again.
"How's the investigation going?"
His voice was low and cold, without a trace of warmth.
Zhou Chen on the other end of the phone took a deep breath, his tone filled with helplessness. "Boss, this is truly bizarre! I've pored over all the hotel's surveillance footage, and I haven't seen a woman, let alone a female ghost! And... I've also looked through all the hotel employee files, but I still haven't found the woman you're talking about."
Chu Tianche's brows were twisted into a knot, and his fingertips tapped the table "dong dong dong", the sound getting louder and louder, as if it was going to break the table.
"No? Not even an employee?" There was a hint of suppressed anger in his voice.
"President, I really tried my best! I've checked the surveillance video to bits, and I've checked all the employees, but there's really nothing! Do you think... maybe you... drank too much and remembered it wrongly?" Zhou Chen's voice began to tremble.
"impossible!"
Chu Tianche flatly rejected it, his tone becoming even colder, "I know my own body better than anyone else!"
He paused, his voice lowering. "Keep investigating. Get me a list of all the women who checked into the hotel last night. Check them one by one! Also, check if there have been any unusual cases in the city recently, especially those involving women."
"Yes, President, I'll do it right away." Zhou Chen responded quickly, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
With a "bang", Chu Tianche hung up the phone angrily, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window in annoyance, and punched the glass, making a loud "bang" sound.
He stared out the window, his eyes frighteningly sinister, his heart ablaze with fire. This damned woman had dared to sleep with him and then vanish without a trace. This was simply challenging his bottom line! He, Chu Tianche, had never suffered such a huge loss before!
“Woman, you dare to provoke me, don’t let me find you.”
...........................
The next day, Chen Xiaoru dressed herself up according to the original owner's "ugly girl" outfit and went to work in a high-spirited manner.
Chushi Group
Chen Xiaoru looked at the tall building of the Chushi Group and walked in quickly. "I wonder if President Chu will recognize me? I'm really looking forward to it."
She pushed up the shabby black-framed glasses on her nose, covering up her enchanting fox eyes and her face that brought disaster to the country and the people.
She had deliberately dressed in an old-fashioned business suit today: a dark blue blazer, a white shirt, and a black knee-length skirt. She looked like a stuffy spinster. Her hair was meticulously tied up in a bun, looking downright tacky.
She walked straight across the lobby and headed for the elevator. The doors slowly opened, and she stepped inside and pressed the button for the top floor.
The elevator slowly ascended, and her heartbeat quickened. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner tension.
"Ding——" The elevator door opened, and Chen Xiaoru walked out and came to the secretary's office outside the president's office.
In the secretary's office, several secretaries were busy. When they heard the noise, they just looked up and glanced at her lightly, then lowered their heads and continued to work, as if she was just an insignificant and transparent person.
Chen Xiaoru didn't care and walked straight to her desk and put down her bag.
The desk was piled high with documents, like a small mountain. She quickly browsed through them. They were all daily affairs, which were not difficult for her.
She began to deal with it in an orderly manner according to the work habits left by the original owner.
Fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, making a crisp "tapping" sound, which intertwined with the sounds of other keyboards in the office, like a busy symphony.
As she processed documents, she pondered in her mind, "I wonder if that overbearing CEO will come to the company today? If he comes and sees me like this, will he recognize me as the 'female ghost' from last night? I'm really looking forward to his reaction..."
"Xiao Ru, this document...can you help me deliver it?"
The new secretary, Li Hong, came over timidly, holding a folder, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice.
"Today's president... I'm a little scared."
She twisted her fingers nervously and avoided looking at me, like a frightened little rabbit, which was very adorable.
