"President Li, you've misunderstood. President Fu has really gone upstairs to rest."
After saying that, the two of them looked up at the bedroom on the upper floor at the same time.
Li Susu pouted, "The lights aren't even off, is he really asleep?"
The butler looked troubled, unsure of what to say next.
"President Li, please wait a moment while I go ask President Fu."
Li Susu waved her hand, "No need for that. I just want to ask a few questions, and then I'll go back."
She insisted on entering, and the housekeeper dared not stop her anymore, so he could only silently follow behind Li Susu.
She rushed upstairs, taking only a few steps at a time, and she remembered the location of her bedroom very clearly.
Li Susu stopped at the door and knocked without hesitation.
"Knock knock knock—"
Li Susu knocked several times, but there was still no response from inside the room, which made her a little impatient.
She tried turning the handle and found that the door to the room was not locked.
With a "click," the door was opened directly by Li Susu.
She peeked out and heard the sound of the showerhead, which immediately made her face turn red.
Could it be that Fu Xingzhou is taking a shower?
The thought flashed through her mind, and Li Susu immediately closed the door again.
The housekeeper, standing behind her, looked at Li Susu's flushed cheeks with some puzzlement.
"President Li, what's wrong? Isn't President Fu inside?"
"Um... I just thought about it, and it's really too late today. I'll come again tomorrow."
"Don't tell him about my visit."
After saying that, Li Susu ran downstairs in a panic, her speed making her look like a guilty rabbit.
The butler paused for two seconds, then heard the door in front of him open.
Fu Xingzhou was wearing a bathrobe, and his hair was still wet, making for a very romantic scene.
"Mr. Fu, you were just... taking a shower."
The butler then realized what was happening and chuckled to himself.
"What's up?"
Fu Xingzhou heard the noise and hurriedly came out to check.
"It was President Li who just came by, but she didn't want me to tell you that she was here, and she didn't say what it was about."
The butler spread his hands, somewhat helplessly.
Fu Xingzhou took a towel, dried his wet hair, and responded.
"I see."
He closed the door but didn't chase after them. He walked back to the window and glanced out.
Li Susu had already entered the courtyard, but in the darkness, she couldn't see the other person's expression.
Fu Xingzhou suddenly chuckled. Could it be that he had imagined some scene and that's why he hurriedly ran away?
He shook his head helplessly and quickly went to dry his hair and rest.
Li Susu, who was sitting next door, clutched her still wildly beating heart and muttered a complaint about herself.
"Luckily you ran fast, otherwise that narcissist Fu Xingzhou would definitely have misunderstood!"
"What are you doing at his house so late? Who would believe you don't have ulterior motives?"
"Li Susu, Li Susu, you're just blinded by lust!"
Li Susu vented for a while before her emotions gradually calmed down.
She took out her phone and glanced at her assistant's messages, then froze.
[Mr. Li, this news has been completely suppressed. The bidding committee has issued a statement claiming that it was all a misunderstanding.]
The link to a news article was also attached. Li Susu clicked on it and took a look, becoming somewhat excited.
She didn't expect that the matter would be completely suppressed so quickly.
While Li Susu was happy, she thought of what Fu Xingzhou's assistant had said.
