Lin Ruoxi knew exactly what this meant, but it was too late for her to stop it.
Because Ye Chen didn't give her any chance to stop him.
Ye Chen looked at Lin Ruoxi in front of him, a wicked smile flashing across his face.
"Ye Chen, don't do this, it's really dangerous."
Lin Ruoxi said with a hint of pleading.
To be honest, Lin Ruoxi was walking on a very tightrope at that moment.
She could fall if she's not careful.
"Ye Chen, how about this? Let's wait until Yang Hong leaves first before we talk about it."
Lin Ruoxi spoke to Ye Chen once again.
Seeing Lin Ruoxi so anxious, Ye Chen naturally wouldn't go too far.
"Okay, Ruoxi, let's take a break."
Just as Lin Ruoxi was about to find a place to rest, her foot slipped, and she lost her balance and was about to fall to the ground.
The sudden accident startled Lin Ruoxi, who unconsciously let out a soft cry.
When she realized what was happening, her expression changed drastically, and she became even more flustered.
Lin Ruoxi's shouts were not very loud.
But Yang Hong, who was tidying up outside, vaguely heard something and immediately stopped.
Yang Hong frowned slightly, her expression becoming a little more serious.
She looked in the direction the sound came from, and saw it was the bathroom.
"President Lin, are you there?" Yang Hong called out tentatively.
Lin Ruoxi was startled when she heard Yang Hong's voice.
Lin Ruoxi deeply regretted not being able to hold back and make a sound earlier.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have caught Yang Hong's attention.
However, it was too late for Lin Ruoxi to regret it now.
She covered her mouth tightly with both hands, determined not to make another sound.
At the same time, Lin Ruoxi was extremely nervous, her heart pounding in her throat.
A variety of complex emotions kept assaulting her.
Ye Chen behind her remained calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.
Ye Chen's mental fortitude is exceptionally strong.
"What should we do, Ye Chen? It seems like we've stopped hearing the tidying up outside."
"Did Yang Hong find out?" Lin Ruoxi asked.
Ye Chen had very keen hearing, and he knew perfectly well that Yang Hong had stopped tidying up.
"Ruoxi, let's not make a sound."
Hearing Ye Chen say this, Lin Ruoxi could only nod.
"Okay, let's both keep quiet, that should be fine."
Time passed slowly, and for Lin Ruoxi, it felt like an eternity.
Yang Hong, standing outside, frowned, her eyes fixed on the bathroom.
"Could it be that President Lin isn't here, or that I've made a mistake?"
However, Yang Hong quickly rejected the idea.
Because she had indeed heard a sound coming from the bathroom.
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, are you in the restroom?"
Yang Hong asked again, then walked step by step toward the bathroom.
The constant "tick-tock" sound of Yang Hong's high heels was making Lin Ruoxi very anxious.
"Ye Chen, what should we do?"
Lin Ruoxi really couldn't imagine it.
If Yang Hong saw her and Ye Chen in the bathroom, how incredibly embarrassing that would be.
Ye Chen smiled slightly and then looked at Lin Ruoxi.
"Ruoxi, you can send a text message to Secretary Yang to get her away."
Lin Ruoxi's eyes immediately lit up; this was indeed a good idea.
"Ye Chen, how can I get Yang Hong away from me?"
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi's mind was in complete disarray.
For a moment, she didn't know what excuse to use to get Yang Hong away.
"Ruoxi, you're her boss, you can just make up any excuse."
Ye Chen looked at Lin Ruoxi and said with a slight smile.
Just as Lin Ruoxi was about to pick up her phone, she realized that it was lying outside.
"Ye Chen, my phone is outside."
"President Lin, President Lin, are you inside?"
At this moment, Yang Hong's voice came again, and the footsteps grew closer.
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi was extremely anxious and worried.
"Ye Chen, Yang Hong is getting closer and closer, what should we do now?"
"If she sees us here, I'll be too ashamed to show my face."
"Ye Chen, please think of something, waaaaah..."
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow; he really hadn't expected Lin Ruoxi's phone to be outside.
"Ruoxi, don't worry, let me think of a way."
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi placed all her hopes on Ye Chen.
Of course, Ye Chen's brain was also working at this time, trying to think of a solution.
Lin Ruoxi was both anxious and helpless about this.
She greatly admired Ye Chen's strong mental fortitude; he remained calm under pressure.
Just then, Yang Hong, Ye Chen, and Lin Ruoxi were separated by only one door.
Yang Hong stared intently at the doorway in front of her.
"Knock knock knock..."
A knock came at the door, which startled Lin Ruoxi so much that she almost cried out.
"Mr. Lin, this is Yang Hong. Are you inside?" Yang Hong said after knocking on the door a few times.
Lin Ruoxi dared not respond.
"Did I hear wrong? Is President Lin not inside?"
Yang Hong murmured softly, but a hint of suspicion still lingered on her face.
"Maybe I should open the door and go in to take a look."
Yang Hong thought to herself, and then she placed her hand on the doorknob and gently turned it.
"Whoosh—"
Lin Ruoxi's face paled instantly when she saw the doorknob turn; her delicate body trembled, and she almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Ye Chen caught her from behind, otherwise Lin Ruoxi would have really fallen to the ground.
Yang Hong would come in immediately if there was any noise.
