Jiang Yu was really handsome, especially when he was hard at work. He was even more charming.

She had been personally recommended by Jiang Yu’s mother. Unlike the others, there was still hope for her and Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked at the proposal in his hand and listened to the description by the project manager. He picked up the coffee beside him with his right hand and took a sip. He frowned. The coffee was a little sweet.

After Jiang Yu put down the coffee, he stopped drinking.

Lin Wan had been staring at Jiang Yu the whole time. She realized that he had only taken a sip of the coffee before he stopped drinking any more.

Even after the meeting ended, the cup of coffee had not been touched.

After the meeting ended, Lin Wan followed Jiang Yu out of the meeting room. As she thought of the cup of coffee, Lin Wan asked, “President, that cup of coffee was specially brewed according to your taste. There was no sugar added, but you didn’t drink it. Is it because it’s too bitter? Do you need me to add somee sugar next time?”

Jiang Yu turned his head to look at Lin Wan. “Did you brew it yourself?”

Lin Wan nodded. “Yes. Is there anything wrong, President?”

A hint of doubt flashed across Jiang Yu’s eyes. He looked away. “It’s nothing. There’s no need for added sugar.”

“Got it, President.” Lin Wan turned her head to look at Jiang Yu and continued, “President, Auntie said that she wants you to go back for dinner tonight, and she said to bring me along.”

“I have an appointment tonight, so I won’t be going back for dinner. Tell my mom when you go over.”

At this moment, the elevator doors opened. Jiang Yu strode in and pressed the button to the top floor.

Before Lin Wan could react, the elevator door was already closed.

Lin Wan stared at the tightly shut doors and stomped her feet angrily. She thought that she could ride in the same car with Jiang Yu today. Lin Wan imagined that when the other employees saw it, they would definitely think that she and Jiang Yu were boyfriend and girlfriend.

They could even have dinner together!

Lin Wan did not expect that Jiang Yu would turn down even a personal request from his mother to go home for dinner.

After work.

It suddenly started to rain outside.

Ye Xue did not see the weather forecast before she went out today, and she did not know that it would rain.

It was such a cold day. If Ye Xue were to get caught in the rain, she would definitely catch a cold.

She had just started this new job and was still under probation, and it was even more difficult for her to apply for leave frequently.

Ye Xue stood at the entrance of the office. Seeing that the rain did not stop, she could not help but feel a little anxious. Ye Xue was afraid that she would miss the last bus.

At this moment, a Chevrolet stopped in front of her. The window rolled down and she saw Wu Qixiong looking over. “Ye Xue, get in the car. I’ll give you a ride.”

Ye Xue shook her head. “It’s alright. It’s not on the way. Thank you, though.”

Wu Qixiong replied, “It’s fine. Come on up. I’ll take a detour to send you back.”

“There’s really no need. Thank you very much for offering.” Ye Xue really did not want to trouble others. Moreover, where Wu Qixiong was going was very far from her home, so Ye Xue was even more embarrassed to accept his offer.

At this time, Lin Wan walked out with her backpack. Seeing the heavy rain, she could not help but smile when she thought of Jiang Yu who was right behind her.

Jiang Yu walked to the company with even steps. He glanced at the time on his watch and agreed to go to the bar with Tingyan for a drink that night.

As soon as Jiang Yu walked out, he saw the heavy rain outside and frowned. The rain affected his mood when he was drinking.

“President, wait here for a while. I’ll drive the car to the door.” Assistant Xu said as he strode out with an umbrella in hand.

Jiang Yu stood ramrod straight on the steps and took out his phone to call Fu Tingyan.

“Tingyan, are you still drinking tonight?”

“Yes, but I don’t want to go to the bar. Let’s go to your villa. I’ll bring some good wine.”

“Alright then. Do you want me to order some food? From that restaurant I usually eat at. How about Yixiang Garden?”

“Sure. You can order. I’ve already left the office.”

“See you, then.”

Jiang Yu hung up.

Lin Wan saw that Jiang Yu had ended his call and walked over. She crossed her arms and looked at Jiang Yu. “President, it’s raining. Are you going home? I don’t have an umbrella. You can give me a ride if you are going back home.”

Jiang Yu turned his head to look at Lin Wan. She crossed her arms as if it was very cold. Lin Wan was born from a very ordinary family and had just graduated from university.

Jiang Yu’s thoughts turned back to Xiao Xue. He thought about how she would have already graduated from university, but Jiang Yu did not know where she worked.

She should be in the Imperial City. After all, it was the capital city. Everyone was trying their best to stay and work there in the capital.

Jiang Yu thought of what his mother had told him.

“Take my car. When I arrive, ask Assistant Xu to send you over.”

Lin Wan’s face was filled with joy. She could finally sit in the same car as Jiang Yu. She had just gotten off work and there were a lot of people at the entrance of the office.

She thanked him quickly. “Thank you, President.”

“You’re welcome.” Jiang Yu replied politely.

Although Ye Xue was rather overwhelmed by Wu Qixiong’s enthusiasm, she was very touched. In order not to delay his return home, she still rejected his kind offer.

Wu Qixiong was quite worried. “How are you going to go back home?” He asked Ye Xue.

Ye Xue said, “I’m waiting for this rain to turn into a drizzle. I’ll take the bus back.”

“Then be careful. Don’t get caught in the rain. It’s easy to catch a cold if you do,” Wu Qixiong instructed.

Ye Xue waved at him. “I know. You should go home quickly.”

Wu Qixiong glanced at Ye Xue. In the end, he couldn’t convince her. He stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

At this moment, Assistant Xu drove the car over and parked it at the entrance of the Xinyue Group’s office. Then, he opened the car door and got off. Holding an umbrella, Assistant Xu went to pick up the President.

After Jiang Yu got into the car, he said to Assistant Xu, “Pick Lin Wan up too.”

“Certainly, President.” Assistant Xu closed the car door and turned around to pick Lin Wan up.

After Lin Wan got into the car happily, she couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Jiang Yu. She noticed that Jiang Yue had one hand on his forehead and he was looking out of the car window. His side profile seemed even more attractive.

After Assistant Xu got into the car, he started it up and was ready to leave.

Ye Xue looked at the rain. It didn’t show any signs of slowing down. She lowered her head to look at the time on her watch. The bus was about to arrive. If she missed this bus, there wasn’t going to be a next one.

The bus stop was about five to six minutes away from the company entrance. Ye Xue thought that if she ran quickly, she wouldn’t be too badly drenched by the rain.

Seeing that the rain was gradually evolving to a drizzle, Ye Xue carried her backpack and dashed out at a speed that she had never run at before.

Jiang Yu’s gaze was fixed outside the car window. The rain outside was quite heavy, and there was nothing to see. Suddenly, a figure ran over in front of him. Jiang Yu stared at it with wide eyes, as if he could not believe it.

Lin Wan tugged at the hem of her clothes and glanced at Jiang Yu from time to time. She asked carefully, “President, Auntie said that she had the kitchen make your favorite dishes tonight. Are you really not going back for dinner?”

Jiang Yu didn’t seem to hear Lin Wan’s question. His gaze was fixed on the slender figure outside the car. That figure looked very much like Ye Xue.

He watched this figure run quickly and almost fall down several times.

“Stop the car,” Jiang Yu suddenly shouted.

Assistant Xu didn’t understand what had happened. He had just backed out of the carpark and hadn’t even driven three meters when he hurriedly stepped on the brakes again.

Jiang Yu didn’t wait for the car to come to a complete stop before he pushed the car door open and ran out. He even forgot to use an umbrella.

Lin Wan was shocked and shouted out of the window, “President, it’s raining outside. If you run out like this, you’ll catch a cold!”

Jiang Yu’s figure had already dashed into the rain as he ran towards the figure that looked very much like Ye Xue.

“Xiao Xue..” He shouted as he ran.
