Chapter 57 - Chapter 57

Holding a bouquet of blue roses in her left hand, Wang Rouxi stepped foot inside the magnificent building of the Xia Corporation with confident strides.

All the women at the lobby could not help but sneak a few glances her way while wondering to themselves who this beautiful man was.

Wearing a well-tailored blue suit over a light blue shirt and a pair of dark brown shoes, coupled with Wang Rouxi's perfect disguise, she looked very much like a wealthy business man out to get his girlfriend.

"Who's that?"

"What a handsome guy!"

"Who do you think he came here for?"

...

The place quieted down as the people started speaking in hushed whispers, trying to find out more about the man's identity.

Wang Rouxi paid these people no mind as she stopped in front of the reception desk. "I would like to ask if Mr. Xia is done with the board meeting."

The receptionist was a lady in her mid-twenties and although she was quite a beauty herself, she still could not compare to Wang Rouxi, whether it be her real identity or as Lu Xi.

"U-um... S-sir, uhm, may I k-know who you a-are?" The receptionist went beet red, finding it hard to calm herself.

The man in front of her was just too handsome that words were not enough to describe him!

But he could not still rival her boss!

With that thought, the receptionist tried to calm her rapidly beating heart and opted to reiterate her question, "Ahem... Sir, may I know who you are so I can coordinate to Mr. Xia's secretary?"

"Di Yi."

The receptionist waited for a few seconds more but Wang Rouxi did not say anything else so she could only speculate about this person's identity.

"Alright, Mr. Di! Let me ask on your behalf. Please wait as I coordinate to the higher-ups."

Despite not knowing her status or identity, the receptionist did not show any disrespect which earned a good impression from Wang Rouxi.

While waiting for the receptionist, Wang Rouxi silently observed everything around her.

Xia Corporation was surely on the rise. With the help of Wang Empire Estates, they could grow more and more. Their future would be boundless.

"Mr. Di, the board meeting has just ended. Would you like me to ask someone to escort you to the CEO's office?" The receptionist smiled at Wang Rouxi while secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I did not antagonize this man!

Wang Rouxi glanced at the nervous lady and could already guess what she was thinking, "No need. Thank you."

After she said that, Wang Rouxi took the elevator to go to the top floor where Xia Jiannan's office was situated.

The people at the lobby immediately swarmed towards the reception desk after Wang Rouxi got inside the elevator.

"Xiao Yao, who was that handsome man?"

"You're such a lucky girl, Xiao Yao!"

"Tell us! Tell us who he is!"

"Is he the boss's new business partner?"

...

The receptionist named Xiao Yao was bombarded with her co-workers' inquiry about Wang Rouxi's identity that she didn't know whom to face first.

"Everyone, please calm down." Xiao Yao tried to appease the crowd. "If we get caught gossiping here, we'll surely be sanctioned by the supervisor!"

Hearing this, the crowd quieted down. Xiao Yao nodded in satisfaction.

"I'll cut it short. Don't provoke that man, by all means, don't. I'm not really sure how he is related to the boss, but I could tell even Secretary Cheng had to be wary of him."

Gasps of surprise rang out in the crowd. Xiao Yao's words made them all the more curious about the identity of that handsome man. But of course, they would not actually dare antagonize him.

After finding out that the man's name was Di Yi, the crowd dispersed as all of them made a mental note not to provoke this man.

. . .

On Wang Rouxi's side.

It took quite some time before Wang Rouxi reached her destination because she rode the public elevator. It would open almost every floor! That just means that Xia Corporation was bustling with business.

Wang Rouxi was just about to turn around the corner to Xia Jiannan's office when she heard a woman's voice, "Xia Jiannan, let's go eat lunch together!"
