C93

As the car slowly drove past the bustling area, the road started to become bumpy and the buildings got lower and lower as they got closer to the outskirts of the city.

Fu Yuan did not look that shabby, and that small office building looked pretty good in this slightly dilapidated area. Shen Canghao turned off the engine, leaned back slightly and lit up a cigarette, his eyes squinted in satisfaction as he blew out a nice smoke ring.

Marry? It wasn't really a bad idea. If that woman on the other side of the Atlantic could see that he was getting married so quickly, then wouldn't he be able to save some face?

He flicked the cigarette ash out of the window, opened the car door, and stepped out with his long, firm, and powerful legs. He walked step by step towards the office building, leisurely light gray short-sleeved t-shirt, a body wrapped in flowing lines that made one's heart race, and even more so the almost flawless face, tough yet handsome side face, and the pair of bright peach blossom eyes under the spirited black hair.

When Shen Canghao walked in, the small hall was completely silent. He directly walked over to the front desk, lightly tapped his index finger on the table, and said in a low voice with a magnetic tone, "Miss."

"Ah …" Hello, Fuyuan Business... "

The receptionist abruptly stopped mid-sentence and stared at the man in front of her with wide eyes. He just lazily leaned on the table and squinted at her, making it seem as if his hands and feet had no idea where to place him …

"Please give this to your directors." He held a delicate gold card between his fingers and pushed it to the receptionist's side.

"Yes, yes, sir. I will go right now …"

As if she had just awoken from her stupor, the Miss took the business card with both hands and headed straight for the elevator. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat.

Shen Canghao's lips curled up a little as a glint flashed in his eyes, landing on a few large pieces of colorful paper. He reached out to grab the paper, only to find out that it was a summary of the rich and powerful employees' information.

His interest piqued, he walked to the sofa in the hall and sat down. He read the words one by one, thinking that she had only been here for a short time. He flipped through two pages before he saw a familiar face.

She had a pretty face with a calm smile on the corner of her lips. Her hair was parted and neatly tied up behind her head. There was no other expression on her face. She just quietly spent her spring and autumn days alone.

Suddenly, a faint sense of loss arose from the bottom of her heart. In her eyes, there was no disappointment, no pain, and no worries. She was just an only girl from an ordinary family with no worries.

"It's my pleasure to meet you, Boss Shen." Just as he was staring at the photo in a daze, he heard the low and gentle voice of a male. The fact that he did not receive the humble greetings of the leaders of those small companies was beyond his expectations. It did not look like it was in a pond.

"Hello." Shen Canghao stood up, but without exception, he did not avoid that person's hand and slightly shook it.

He looked like a middle-aged man who was refined and steady. He did not have the slick and sophisticated attitude of a businessman, nor the flattery of a businessman when he saw him.

"What brings Chief Shen here this time?" The middle-aged man still spoke politely yet coldly. Shen Canghao had a sliver of a favorable impression of the man and unconsciously smiled, "There are two things."

"Director Shen, please." The middle-aged man ordered his secretary to prepare some tea as he spoke.

"No need." Shen Canghao raised his hand to stop his secretary's actions, and slowly sat down, "One is that I want to meet someone, she is your Fuyuan's employee, and the other one was originally not part of the plan. But today, I feel that your Fuyuan's atmosphere is quite good, if there's a suitable opportunity in the future, we can work together with the Shen family."

The middle-aged man was still calm and unfazed. He only nodded slightly and said, "I am indebted to CEO Shen for thinking highly of me. Only Fu Yuan is only a small company. I'm afraid it would be difficult to get along with the Shen family …"

"We'll talk about this in the future. No matter how small, there will be a day when we can grow up." Shen Canghao's eyebrows relaxed, as he smiled and glanced at him, "Boss Liu, can you lend me a room?"

"Of course, Boss Shen. Please go this way."

As the middle-aged man led the way to the elevator, he asked, "Who does Chief Shen want to meet?"

"Xu Huayan." He calmly announced her name, but he felt a faint sense of anticipation in his heart. After a while: "Don't tell her who I am, only that I want to see her."

Although the middle-aged man was puzzled, he still nodded in the end. "Alright."

The reception room wasn't too big, but it wasn't ordinary. It was simple and elegant. There were two pots of green orchids growing on the balcony, which were pleasing to the eyes.

The door was closed. He sat on the sofa and smoked. From time to time, he would look at the door with anticipation.

The sound of tapping heels on the floor came from somewhere small and loud. Right at that moment, when the cigarette between his fingers had finished, he pressed his hand into the ashtray in front of him and the corner of his lips began to slowly rise. With his other hand, he picked up the newspaper on one side and covered his face with it.

Knocking sounded on the door as he whispered, "Come in."

With a creak, the door was pushed open and footsteps came closer, as if the air was filled with the scent of jasmine. Yes, it was the smell of shower gel and shampoo that he had chosen for her at Wal-Mart that day.

"Sir, you were looking for me?"

The smile in the depths of Shen Canghao's eyes grew even wider as the newspaper in front of him slowly fell down. First, it was his pair of obsidian eyes, bright and beautiful, then it was filled with peach blossoms, then it was followed by his tall and straight nose, domineering and proud, then it was followed by his mocking smile and pursed his lips …
