"Mr. Luo, how about you ask?" Secretary Guo asked.
Luo Xiyun wanted to refuse, but through the mist, she saw Chen Xu's face. It was the first time she looked at his face like this since that dream.
Under the light, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light.
It was just like the last day in his dream, when he was sitting in a wheelchair, staring at the rising sun at the end of the iceberg.
A surge of throbbing surged in her heart, and in an instant, the irritability in her heart exploded.
Why him? How could it be him? Why on earth could it be him? No, it was just a dream.
She squeezed the towel in her hand and said, "You, come closer."
Anyone could see that her expression had become serious, and even her new colleagues who didn't know her well could sense the pressure.
Quietly, the atmosphere has changed.
Chen Xu followed his instructions and walked to the middle of the pool. The water was not very deep, only up to his waist. When he stood up, his entire upper body was out of the water.
Luo Xiyun stared closely at a certain spot on his chest. When the four inconspicuous moles came into her eyes, her vision began to shake, then deform, twist, and rotate.
Amid the ringing in her ears, the whole world seemed to be moving away from her.
In a trance, she seemed to hear a familiar voice.
[You really don't have a single mole on your body. You are truly naturally beautiful. ]
[Why are you poking me here? These four moles were not there when I was a child, but appeared when I grew up... If you put them together, do they look like a square? ]
…………
It seemed like just a moment, and yet it seemed like a century had passed.
The world in front of Luo Xiyun became clear again. She looked at Chen Xu's ignorant face and an uncontrollable rage surged in her chest.
"Are you in a relationship with Dai Zixin?"
In the eyes of others, she stared at Chen Xu for a few seconds before asking such a question. Although her expression was not clear, one could feel the pressure just by listening to her tone.
For a moment, the atmosphere around seemed to be lower than the temperature outside.
Everyone else looked at Chen Xu standing in the middle of the pool, and they were worried about him. As for the other party, Dai Zixin, she looked uneasy.
…………
When Chen Xu saw that he was chosen, he cursed his bad luck.
[Secretary Guo is out of his mind, actually suggesting playing this kind of game. We are not friends, and our boss is present. We can't ask too private questions, nor can we ask too formal questions. Isn't this embarrassing?]
[No way, you actually let Luo Xiyun ask questions? ]
【She asked me to come over? 】
[That's not right. Her tone is not right. Who is she angry with? ]
Various thoughts came to his mind, and he stood up from the water and walked over. He stopped consciously when he could see her face clearly.
This is her psychological safety distance. Given the current relationship between the two of us, if we get any closer, she will feel disgusted.
[She looks a little haggard. Has she not had a good rest recently? ]
[She is too strong-willed. The company's affairs can be handed over to others. Why does a girl work so hard? Her family is not poor.]
【Why doesn't she speak? 】
[Eh, in this state, is her period coming? ]
[No, it's not at this time. These few days should be the dangerous period.]
[By the way, my ex-girlfriend also felt a little uncomfortable during her ovulation period. Is she like this too? Well, maybe it’s even more serious.]
【She spoke, what did she ask me? 】
[It seems like she is asking if she is dating Dai Zixin. Strange, when did she start asking about other people's private lives? ]
[I don't remember the company having a rule that employees cannot date each other.]
Chen Xu was distracted as usual. After Luo Xiyun asked the question, it took him several seconds to react and said, "No, Zi Xin and I are normal colleagues."
He said it calmly, but Luo Xiyun's anger did not diminish at all, and his voice was still cold, "Really? Someone saw her coming out of your room, what do you say?"
Chen Xu really wanted to turn around and look at Secretary Guo. Although he knew that these people loved to gossip about others, it was less than half an hour and the news had already reached Luo Xiyun's ears. Wasn't it a bit too exaggerated?
He briefly explained, "We were just talking about things."
Luo Xiyun looked at him with his head down, not daring to look at him, and the anger in his heart seemed to be about to explode.
However, in front of so many subordinates, she instinctively controlled her expression and voice, but her tone became even colder, "You should know that the company has regulations that do not allow office romance. Once discovered, you will be fired immediately."
For a moment, everyone present was terrified.
[Is there really such a rule? ]
Chen Xu was a little confused, as he didn't seem to remember it. However, it was obviously unwise to contradict him at this time.
[Things are different now. If it were in a dream, she would never dare to talk to me like this.]
He felt a little sad.
However, living in this society, we must always face reality.
The Luo Xiyun in front of him was not the Luo Xiyun who had accepted his fate in the dream. At work, he was merciless to everyone.
【If you say yes, then yes. 】
He said nothing.
Luo Xiyun looked at him like this, her chest rose and fell violently a few times, but she suppressed it forcefully, "Even if you are not in a relationship, you should still be aware of the impact. Don't do anything that will cause others to misunderstand you. Next time, don't let me hear such rumors again."
After saying these words in one breath, she stood up and said, "I'm a little tired," then went ashore and left.
…………
Until Luo Xiyun's figure disappeared at the door, everyone breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time.
"How terrible! It turns out the rumors are true."
"What a strong aura! My heart is about to jump out of my chest."
"Chen Xu, you are so unlucky. You ran into the muzzle of a gun."
…
A group of people were talking in low voices, saying that they were frightened.
"It's scary when President Luo gets angry. Is she like this all the time?" On the other side, the female financial officer who was on good terms with Secretary Guo asked her in a low voice.
Secretary Guo shook his head blankly and was about to speak, but then he thought of something and immediately closed his mouth. He looked at Chen Xu leaning against the pool with a strange look in his eyes.
She had been with Luo Xiyun for half a year and had never seen her so angry.
Moreover, Luo Xiyun never asks about other people's private lives, so such anger is unusual in itself.
Why is this? PS: Thank you for your donations. I am really flattered. Thank you everyone.
