Chapter 391 Let it be



"I'm sorry I'm late."

As she spoke, her eyes involuntarily fell on the scarf on Mr. Luo's arm. Last night, she felt strange. How could Chen Xu's scarf be in Mr. Luo's hand? It was too tempting.

"No, we just arrived too." Chen Xu said to her.

Secretary Guo sat down next to Mr. Luo, and all kinds of thoughts popped up in his mind. [Did something happen between them during the two days I was in the hospital?]

It was no wonder she thought so. At the beginning, she felt that Mr. Luo had a different view of Chen Xu. He appointed him as his assistant, and within a month, his trust in him surpassed hers. He even took her with him on business trips.

Having been a personal secretary for so long, she knew that Mr. Luo had a serious obsession with cleanliness. He was very reluctant to have contact with others. No matter who he shook hands with, male or female, he would disinfect his hands carefully afterwards.

She doesn't like eating at the same table with others. She has followed Mr. Luo for such a long time, but she has only eaten at the same table with others a few times.

How could such a person hold a scarf that someone else had worn? It was not normal in any way.

At this time, Luo Xiyun suddenly said, "I'll return this to you after I wash it clean."

Secretary Guo looked up and saw that there was nothing unusual on her face. He was confused for a moment. Did he guess wrong?

"Okay." Chen Xu didn't seem to care and waved to call the waiter over.

…………

It was already evening when Chen Xu and his friends got off the plane.

Under the influence of that large-scale cold air, the temperature in the southernmost city of the continent dropped to the lowest point this year. There was drizzle outside and the wind was blowing.

When they got off the plane, they felt a completely different kind of cold. The wind seemed to penetrate through the gaps in the fabric of their clothes and chill them to the bone.

Luo Xiyun put on the scarf directly. Secretary Guo behind her saw her action and his eyes froze for a moment.

Liu Kun sent his driver to pick them up at the airport. Only after Chen Xu and the others got in the car did they warm up.

Secretary Guo sat in the passenger seat, while Luo Xiyun and Chen Xu sat in the back.

The three of them were all wet with rain, so Secretary Guo quickly took out the tissues he had with him and wiped them for everyone.

The driver said, "Mr. Luo, let me take you home first. Please send me the address."

Luo Xiyun had just taken off her scarf when she heard this and said, "Send Secretary Guo home first. Her home is close."

Secretary Guo paused. Luo Xiyun hadn't even asked Chen Xu's address, she just said her home was the closest.

In other words, she knew where Chen Xu's home was.

As far as she could remember, after Chen Xu became an assistant, he had never gone out alone with Mr. Luo. How did she know where Chen Xu's home was?

Mr. Luo always kept his work and private affairs separate and rarely asked about his subordinates' private affairs. She had been with Mr. Luo for so long, but he had never asked her about anything other than work, let alone where she lived.

Mr. Luo knew where her home was. Last time when he was on a business trip, he drove her home first.

"Secretary Guo, please send me the address first," said the driver.

"Oh well."

When Secretary Guo picked up the driver's mobile phone and entered the address, her hands were shaking a little. She felt that she might have discovered a shocking secret.

………………

"Just stop at the gate of the community."

After sending Secretary Guo home, not long after, they arrived at the gate of the community where Luo Xiyun lived, and she said to the driver.

"Okay, Mr. Luo." The driver quickly stopped the car.

Before getting off the car, Luo Xiyun said to Chen Xu.

"Um."

Luo Xiyun got out of the car, picked up her luggage, and walked into the community. Looking back, she saw the car disappear in the misty drizzle. She pushed the suitcase and walked towards the building where she lived.

When she got home, she put her suitcase in the hallway, went into the house, turned on the air conditioner, and took a hot bath first.

After taking a shower, she walked out refreshed, took out all the clothes in the suitcase, and stuffed them into the washing machine together with the clothes she had just changed out.

Finally, she looked at the scarf soaking in the basin. She picked up her phone and searched, "How should I wash a wool scarf?"

Immediately, a lot of results came out and she read them one by one.

………………

"Assistant Chen, is this the place?"

Chen Xu was the only one left in the car. He looked out the window with a smile on his face. When he heard the driver's words, he realized that he had reached the entrance of the alley where he rented his house. He said, "This is it. Thank you."

He got out of the car, picked up his backpack, thanked the driver, and walked back to his rental house.

He still lives in the same place as before and plans to move after the New Year.

When he took the key to open the door, he thought of Luo Xiyun putting on the scarf without hesitation, and a smile appeared on his face again. This trip was unexpectedly smooth.

The fact that Xiyun did not reject his scarf meant that his position in her heart had undergone a qualitative change.

Secretary Guo suffered a little and had to stay in the hospital with an IV for two days.

He felt a little sorry and thought he would make it up to her later.

He thought about his next move, and after much deliberation, he felt that there was no need to make any plans before the Spring Festival, and he should just let things take their course.

Now, Xiyun should be given some time to adapt. Giving her constant stimulation would not be good.

He has to focus more on his career. It is difficult for him to replicate his career trajectory in reality. He doesn't have time to open a noodle shop.

There is no way to develop voice input software, because there is no ready-made vocabulary to copy, and no matter how good his memory is, he can't memorize the entire vocabulary. Similarly, there is no way to develop translation software.

Even if he could develop the battery by himself, it would be difficult to promote it. It was impossible to get billions by robbing like before. At that time, he borrowed Yang Jinxia's connections and influence, but he didn't have the energy himself.

Unless, cooperate with Yang Jinxia.

But he didn't dare.

If he mistook the Yang Jinxia of this period for the same person in his memory, he would definitely die a miserable death.

After he got together with her, it was impossible for him not to know about her past. Although many of the people involved were no longer around, the rumors alone were enough to scare him.

He once asked her why she fell in love with him. She said, "Because you gave me a new life."

At first, he didn't quite understand this sentence, but later, combined with some of the things she had said before, he gradually understood it.

In short, Yang Jinxia was in great danger during this period.
