Chapter 384: Chapter 384: A Surge of Euphoria as If Surviving a Calamity

"It’s fine. I was just..." Lu Youxi scrambled for an excuse, "I had planned on visiting Chengzhou Technology anyway, so I thought I’d drop by to see you."

Zhou Shuyan couldn’t help but think about the last time Lu Youxi ’dropped by’ to see him, which didn’t end very well.

But now that Lu Youxi knew about his identity, there shouldn’t be any other unpleasant incidents, right?

"Okay, I’ll wait for you at the office," Zhou Shuyan said.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shuyan called Shen Yanqing to ask, "Did you arrange a meeting with Little Pink Book today?"

"No," Shen Yanqing replied, puzzled, "CEO, do you need me to arrange a meeting with Little Pink Book under the guise of work?"

"No need," Zhou Shuyan said indifferently, "proceed with your plans."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shuyan couldn’t help but wonder why Lu Youxi would suddenly come over.

Enveloped in anxiety, Zhou Shuyan found himself unable to finish his meal, eating only a few bites before losing his appetite.

He tidied up and went straight to the front entrance of the company to wait.

It was lunchtime.

As Zhou Shuyan arrived at the company’s main gate, many colleagues were returning from their lunch break outside.

Chengzhou Technology had its own employee cafeteria, but occasionally the staff would dine out for a change of taste or to discuss matters that weren’t appropriate for the cafeteria setting.

Now, as they returned from lunch and were about to enter the building, they saw the CEO standing at the entrance like a guardian deity.

Colleagues: "..."

What was the CEO up to this time?

Someone stealthily checked the time, "It’s not even one o’clock yet, isn’t it still before work hours?"

"Why is the CEO here then? He doesn’t need to come this early even to catch latecomers."

"The CEO has never caught latecomers before."

"Wait a minute, doesn’t our company have a flex-time policy?"

"Oh, right, right, I forgot we have a flex-time policy. So why is the CEO here?"

"I have no idea."

"Last time the CEO was at the entrance, he was waiting for the CEO’s wife."

"I heard that when the CEO’s wife came last time, it was because they had a fight."

"Could it be the CEO has done something wrong again this time?"

People were guessing wildly, climbing up the steps to the company’s entrance with immense pressure, each one greeting Zhou Shuyan and quickly heading inside.

But they were still curious about what Zhou Shuyan was doing at the entrance, so after they entered the lobby, they each sought out a corner to wait and see.

Unfortunately, that little corner quickly became crowded, and more conspicuous than anywhere else.

Zhou Shuyan, however, didn’t seem to care even if he noticed.

Since he came to wait at the company’s entrance, he wasn’t worried about being seen.

Colleagues pulled out their phones to inquire around, seeing if anyone knew what Zhou Shuyan was actually up to.

Finally, someone asked Yu Zeqin.

Yu Zeqin, who was eating at the employee cafeteria: "..."

What?

The CEO went to the company’s entrance again?

He had no clue.

Yu Zeqin indicated, "I’m eating in the employee cafeteria and have no knowledge of the CEO’s current actions, sorry."

Judging by Zhou Shuyan’s behavior, it was very possible that Lu Youxi would be coming over soon.

Yu Zeqin decided he wasn’t going to show his face in front of Zhou Shuyan.

Zhou Shuyan wasn’t in a rush, just waiting there.

After about 20 minutes, he saw a taxi pull up at the side of the road.

A familiar figure immediately descended from the car.

Shutting the door, the figure quickly ran towards this side, looking particularly anxious.

Zhou Shuyan hurried down the steps and strode towards Lu Youxi.

Lu Youxi ran up to Zhou Shuyan and was caught by him, "Youxi, what happened?"

Lu Youxi, gasping for breath, didn’t speak, and took hold of Zhou Shuyan’s hand, striding towards the company’s interior.

Zhou Shuyan, puzzled, asked, "Youxi, what’s wrong? What happened?"

Lu Youxi didn’t say a word. Having been here once before, she remembered how to get to his office.

Thus she strode into the company and headed for the elevator.

However, she was stopped midway by a card-reading gate.

Zhou Shuyan hurriedly swiped his card for her and followed her in.

Their colleagues, intimidated by Lu Youxi’s demeanor, didn’t dare to make a sound.

"Is the CEO’s wife angry again?"

"The CEO’s wife’s expression seems quite ominous."

"Why does the CEO always make the lady mad?"

"It’s over, the CEO’s wife only comes when she’s angry."

"If we encounter such a situation again, we won’t have to guess; it’s definitely because the CEO’s wife is mad, and the CEO will be waiting at the entrance to coax her."

Amidst everyone’s speculation, Lu Youxi pulled Zhou Shuyan swiftly towards the elevator.

Zhou Shuyan carefully reminded, "The one at the far end is my private elevator, nobody else uses it."

Lu Youxi then pulled Zhou Shuyan over to it.

After pressing the up button, sure enough, there was no need to wait – the elevator door immediately opened.

Zhou Shuyan was pulled into the elevator by Lu Youxi.

Lu Youxi pressed the button for the top floor and then the close door button.

Once the elevator door closed, Zhou Shuyan nervously asked, "Youxi, is it me... did I do something wrong?"

Zhou Shuyan quickly reflected; he and Lu Youxi had just reconciled and hadn’t had time to do anything that could’ve upset her.

He had come clean about everything in the past, without hiding a thing.

"Or did someone else talk nonsense to you?" Zhou Shuyan quickly raised his hands in defense, "I swear, whatever anyone else told you, it’s not true, I’m absolutely being wronged."

Lu Youxi looked up at Zhou Shuyan, her gaze earnest and focused on his face.

It was the living, breathing Zhou Shuyan, saved from his fate of death in the previous life.

The Zhou Shuyan who was brilliantly talented and destined to lead Chengzhou to becoming a world-leading brand.

The Zhou Shuyan who would ensure that Chengzhou’s path only led uphill, never down, as long as he was there.

Lu Youxi watched him intently, her pupils slightly shaking as they settled on his eyebrows, eyes, and lips.

In this life, with her presence, she wouldn’t let this man come to harm again.

"Youxi?" Zhou Shuyan grew even more nervous under Lu Youxi’s gaze.

But unexpectedly, just as he had barely uttered her name, Lu Youxi suddenly raised her hand to cradle his face, pulling his head down while she tiptoed to kiss his lips.

Zhou Shuyan inhaled sharply in surprise, then was overwhelmed with a wave of ecstatic relief, as if having survived a great ordeal.

He had thought Lu Youxi was angry with him again, leaving him in a state of anxiety.

Who knew one second he was on tenterhooks, and the next second he was being kissed passionately by Lu Youxi.

What had suddenly gotten into the girl?

Zhou Shuyan closed his eyes, one hand cradling the back of Lu Youxi’s head, his other hand encircling her waist.

Lu Youxi, tipping on her toes with some effort, was promptly lifted by Zhou Shuyan, who wrapped his arms around her waist.

When the kiss became too overpowering for Lu Youxi to breathe, they heard a ’ding’ from the elevator.

Lu Youxi, still having her wits about her, quickly pushed against him.
