Chu Xinxia wanted to ignore what Xi Chen had said, but found that there was nothing she could do about it. Sighing, she treated it as if she was blessing her child, and Chu Xinxia followed her out.

Lu Xu Qian was in a small meeting room beside the meeting room, while the five representatives of the company that ran for office were in the big meeting room. The few of them had basically been discussing it all along, but the final decision had still been left up to Lu Xu Qian.

Chu Xinxia was watching from the side. The directors were actively interacting with the people there, but those who were familiar with him could tell that he was somewhat overconfident at the moment. The reason why he was able to display such a state was because he no longer had any fear.

When she thought of the things Gu Yiyun was holding, she felt uneasy. He took the opportunity to sneak out of the meeting room, arriving outside Lu Xu Qian's office.

Lu Xunqian was waiting there by himself, not talking to anyone at all.

He was angry, angry with himself.

While he was resting and preparing for the meeting, Chu Xinxia clearly hadn't done anything, and he didn't have any other thoughts in his mind. But he reached out and touched her.

Even though it was just a finger, it was still done by him. This made Lu Xu Qian feel like he had been possessed by a ghost. He was actually able to do such a thing?!

He felt extremely helpless and fearful at the thought of wanting to make a move. The thought was uncontrollable, making him feel like he had failed. And once he had the extra attention to Chuxin Xia, he found that his eyes were always on her, more or less.

This wasn't an attitude that was worth commenting on for Lu Xunqian.

Chu Xinxia walked to the door. When she saw Lu Xunqian leaning against the back of the chair, pinching his forehead with her hand that had been raised as if she wanted to knock, she gave up.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly didn't want to disturb him.

After staying in the corridor for a while, Chu Xin Xia wanted to return to the meeting room, but felt that she might not know what Gu Yiyun was doing once she entered. After hesitating for a long time, he finally found a place to sit down in the stairwell.

Not long after, Chu Xinxia heard the sound of Gu Yiyun. Looking out through the glass of the security door, Chu Xinxia saw a man who looked like a waiter coming over with a cup of tea. "Gu Yiyun stopped the man, and with a worried look on his face, he quickly said something, as if he was in some kind of trouble.

The server looked conflicted, as if he was hesitating on whether or not he should help. Finally, Gu Yiyun took out a few bills from his bag and put them in his hand. The other party smiled and nodded, then handed the cup of tea to Gu Yiyun. Then, he walked away as if he was looking for someone.

After the waiter left, Gu Yiyun no longer had that anxious expression on his face. She placed the teacup on the windowsill in the hallway, then took out the small bottle she had given to Seichan earlier and a small blue pill from her bag. Then he put it in the cup.

He gently swirled the water glass for about three to five minutes before the waiter walked over. He explained to Gu Yiyun with a smile for a long time, as if something had been resolved. Gu Yiyun happily took out a few bills and stuffed them into his hands. Then, he handed him a teacup and left.

The waiter counted the money smilingly, then carried the cup and headed towards Lu Xu Qian's office.

Chu Xinxia quickly came out and went over to call the waiter.

"Can I take this cup of tea in?" Chu Xinxia looked at the waiter timidly, then she took out a few bills from her purse and handed them to the waiter, "Our CEO is inside, I …"

The waitress was still wondering why so many people were giving her money today. Hearing Chu Xinxia's words, she sized her up and gave an "Oh" in a weird tone. Then, she took the money and gave her a teacup, "Hehe, little girl, seize this opportunity!" She seemed to be cheering for Chuxin Xia, waiting for her to fly up the branch and become a phoenix.

Chu Xinxia nodded, took the cup of tea, whispered, "Thank you," and quickly left. After walking for a while and turning a corner, Chu Xinxia finally stopped. The expression on his face had disappeared. He was frowning.

This cup of tea must have been flavored, but she didn't know what kind of medicine it was or what effect it would have.

After thinking about it for a long time, Chu Xinxia still did not have any good ideas. At this moment, a waitress walked over with a tray in her hand. It seemed like she was going to prepare tea for the five people in the meeting room.

Chu Xinxia's eyeballs rolled around. Although she couldn't bear to do it, but she still had to return the favor. She had made up her mind.

After a while, the waitress came back with a tray full of cups. Chu Xinxia stepped forward to stop her, "Hello, could you please pour this cup of tea …"

Chu Xinxia still stuffed the money, put the teacup in her hand on the tray, and repeatedly told her to give this to the director.

The waiter didn't understand why, but thinking about it had nothing to do with him. The person she knew was the big boss of this competition. So there would be a tip for her, and there would be no problem with her life. Whatever else, it had nothing to do with her.

After taking the money from Chu Shen Xia, the waitress was naturally extra careful. When they arrived at the meeting room, they first handed the teacups to the board members and then placed the cups down one by one for the others.

Chu Xin Xia hid at the door, carefully watching the director drink a mouthful of tea before finally feeling relieved.

"What are you doing?" Lu Xu's modest voice suddenly appeared behind her, scaring Chu Xinxia so much that her whole body trembled.

"No, nothing." Chu Xinxia shook her head and looked at Lu Xu Qian in panic.

Lu Xu Qian looked in her direction towards the meeting room. He could clearly see the director from this angle. His eyebrows creased again. "You still don't give up on him?"

Chu Xinxia was stunned for a moment before looking inside again, knowing that Lu Xu Qian had misunderstood. However, she did not know how to explain it when she opened her mouth.

After all, everything was her guess. It might not be true. Besides, Xi Chen was someone he trusted a lot. She was just an ordinary employee. Who would believe such a thing?

"No, I'm just … just watching from here."

Lu Xu Qian was even more mistaken about Chu Xin Xia's sneaky behaviour. His calm state of mind once again turned a little irritable as he snorted and headed back to his office.

Chu Xinxia felt that it was not good to explain or not to explain. He decided not to bother with the explanation and waited quietly by the door.

After about half an hour, the director began to get a little impatient. He seemed to feel very hot, constantly unbuttoning his shirt and fanning himself with his documents. His mouth was parched and he was still drinking water.

At first, he didn't feel anything was wrong, but slowly, he felt that something was wrong.

Chu Xin Xia saw him say something to Xi Chen and came out. At this moment, Lu Xunqian started to call the five people into the office one by one for an interview.

When Chu Xin Xia saw a person entering the office, Lu Xu Qian closed the door behind him. Only then did she secretly follow the director to see what he was up to.

At the corner of the safe passage, the director took out his phone and called Gu Yiyun. He seemed to be in a hurry and his tone wasn't very good either.

A few minutes later, Gu Yiyun anxiously ran over. When one of the board members saw her, he unexpectedly didn't care about her and pulled her into a storage room nearby, before closing the door!

Chu Xinxia hesitated, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity and followed him.

Soon, rumbling noises came from the storage room. It sounded like two people were arguing inside. Chu Xinxia was wondering if she should push open the door to stop them, but soon there was a sound that made her blush and her heart beat faster.

The table shook rhythmically, and the delicate cries of men and women could be heard from time to time. Chu Xinxia was stunned for a moment, then her face suddenly turned red.

It had been going back and forth for nearly an hour, and the sound of Gu Yiyun's begging could be heard. Chu Xia couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart.

She quickly moved to the side and hid by the safe passage.

The man he loved deeply was currently in a heated battle with another woman. If they were able to cooperate in a place like this without caring about their own shame, would they be the same before they let themselves know?

Although she was very sad that the engagement was broken, but was this also keeping her away from a disgusting man? Despite the bitterness in his heart, Chu Xinxia felt lucky. He was glad that he didn't have a relationship with this man, glad that he could still protect his own heart.

Five minutes later, the door to the utility room was pushed open, and the director walked out, his clothes in a mess. He then walked to the washroom on the side, and Chu Xinxia guessed that he should go and clean himself up to deal with the meeting with Lu Xu.

Staying in the stairwell, hoping that Gu Yiyun would appear soon, she had something to say. However, this time she waited for a long time, but still didn't see Gu Yiyun.

Had she already left? However, the toilet was on the other side. If she were to walk from here, she would definitely be able to see it. But he didn't see her. Could she still be in that storage room?

Thinking of this, Chu Xinxia felt that something was wrong, so she pushed open the door and walked towards the storage room.

The items in the storage room had all been thrown around, and were scattered all over the place. One could smell a strong musk when one got a little closer, making Xinxia furrow her brows.

After walking further in, he quickly saw that Gu Yiyun was lying on the ground …
