Zeng Ye's expression was indifferent, and he did not look at Gu Ruxuan.
At that moment, he really had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with anyone.
Liu Yin noticed the shock on the woman's face and the barely perceptible hostility in her eyes.
Liu Yin smiled and nodded slightly to Gu Ruxuan. This must be the female lead.
To Gu Ruxuan, the smile on Liu Yin's face looked more like a smug boast, which made her heart clench.
But she was brought here by Zeng Ye, and now she's just a secretary, so naturally she can't give Liu Yin a hard time.
Gu Ruxuan gave Liu Yin a stiff smile, watching the two of them walk past her.
After Zeng Ye brought Liu Yin into the office, the secretariat's environment suddenly became noisy, as if a boulder had been thrown in.
Many people were whispering about the president's recent unusual behavior, including leaving early earlier and arriving late today.
The men were discussing Liu Yin's appearance, and the unanimous conclusion they reached was that the CEO might be in love.
The women, on the other hand, were more interested in the necklace around Liuyin's neck and the pink diamond on her hand; they always loved those things more.
Almost from the moment she entered, Liuyin attracted everyone's attention.
However, adhering to the belief of being working people, they did not scrutinize him too openly, after all, the president was standing right next to them.
"Look! I found it!" Yang Ke shouted excitedly, and immediately many people gathered around her.
"That necklace is worth over five million!"
This astonishing number is now presented to everyone.
As for the ring, Yang Ke couldn't find any relevant information, but judging from the color and size of the diamond, it must have been quite expensive.
"My God, a necklace worth over five million?"
"Indeed, the lives of the rich are beyond our imagination."
"And she's so beautiful, no wonder the CEO likes her."
Gu Ruxuan hadn't paid attention to what they were discussing; she was currently lost in confusion.
Although she had a crush on Zeng, seeing him up close every day did cause her to have some unrealistic thoughts.
But Liuyin's arrival was a huge blow to her.
She could still have some thoughts about the CEO since he was busy with work every day, but what if he had a girlfriend?
Gu Ruxuan's feelings were complicated, and the more she listened to their speculations, the more dissatisfied she became.
"Maybe she's only after the CEO's money?"
Amidst the discussion, a sentence suddenly rang out.
They didn't even need to look; they all knew who it was.
It's common for working people to be obsequious to their bosses, but it's rare to see someone as obsequious as Gu Ruxuan.
The secretariat staff had long seen through her intentions, but the president always kept his distance from people, so they just treated it as a joke.
The previously noisy environment instantly quieted down, and all eyes were focused on Gu Ruxuan.
She seemed to realize her slip of the tongue and quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "That's not what I meant."
"Perhaps, someone gave her that necklace?"
Gu Ruxuan's meaning was crystal clear.
She was unwilling to admit that the woman and Zeng were from the same social class, as it would make her seem somewhat despicable.
Like a parasite in a dark ditch, it watches everything others do from the shadows, but refuses to show its face.
No one responded to her guesses.
Fortunately, the soundproofing here is good, so the president won't know what's happening here.
Disrupted by Gu Ruxuan's discussion, everyone else returned to their seats and started working.
Seeing everyone's attitude towards her, Gu Ruxuan felt somewhat embarrassed.
——
What are you going to give me?
"Have a seat first. Would you like something to drink?" Zeng Ye said to Liu Yin.
Now that Liu Yin has chosen Liang Nanxing, he naturally wants to cherish the time he spends with her.
Moreover, he didn't want her to leave so soon.
"Anything is fine."
Liu Yin leaned back on the sofa, with 003 standing on her shoulder. At this moment, both of them looked at Zeng Ye.
His eyes were full of curiosity.
Noticing Liu Yin's gaze, Zeng Ye's lips curled slightly. "I guess you probably don't like coffee, so how about orange juice?"
He remembered that Liuyin had told him before that she was the one who couldn't stand hardship the most.
Zeng also opened the drawer and took out a key.
003, seeing his movement, immediately got off Liuyin's shoulder. Why would you need a key to lock something?
What Zeng also locked away was a thick photo album and a property certificate.
He brought the two items to Liuyin, since they were originally intended to be given to her.
Although it was ten years late, it was finally returned to its rightful owner.
Liu Yin took the certificate and saw her name on it; it was quite early.
"Was this something you wanted to give me back then?"
Her slender fingertips lightly traced the paper, and Liu Yin's tone carried a hint of disbelief.
003 reminded him, "Host, don't forget, we came from impoverished backgrounds back then."
In fact, if 003 hadn't mentioned it, Liuyin would have completely forgotten.
She wasn't actually poor for long back then, because she couldn't stand the environment.
“Yes, but it’s the same if I give it to you now.” Zeng said with a smile. The house he bought with all his pocket money back then hasn’t lost its value.
He thought a lot at that time, including the garden that Liuyin liked, the children's room in the future, and so on.
However, in the end, there was no female hostess.
