A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Li Xixue's lips tightened.

She took a step forward, her long legs encased in black stockings and a wrap skirt.

"Closer."

Another step has been taken.

She was now standing less than half a meter away from Lu Yang.

Lu Yang sat in the chair and looked up at her.

To be honest, compared to the arrogant and unruly CEO she was before, she has a completely different temperament now as a secretary.

This distance and this angle.

Li Xixue pursed her lips and looked down at Lu Yang sitting in her chair.

The two people stared at each other.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

Li Xixue was the first to notice and prepared to retreat.

But Lu Yang's hand had already reached out.

His fingers hooked around her wrist, which was hanging at her side.

Li Xixue paused for a moment.

"what?"

Lu Yang applied a little force and pulled him towards himself.

Li Xixue lost her balance and leaned forward.

She braced her hands on the armrests of the chair, bent over, and her face was very close to Lu Yang's.

"Blow it for me."

"???"

Li Xixue's breath hitched for a second, and her whole body instantly felt hot.

Lu Yang added, "That cup of tea was a bit too hot, let it cool down a bit."

Before she could react, she tried to straighten up.

But Lu Yang didn't let go of the hand that was hooked around her wrist.

The two of them remained in that position.

dong dong!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Li Xixue shuddered instantly.

She wanted to get away as soon as possible.

But it was too late.

The next moment, the door was pushed open.

Chen Yan walked in carrying a document, saying, "President Li, Sun Zhiyuan says he wants to see you—"

I got stuck.

Because she saw a scene.

Lu Yang and Li Xixue faced each other, Lu Yang's hand hooked around Li Xixue's wrist, the two were very close.

Chen Yan's gaze moved from Lu Yang's hand to Li Xixue's face, and then back to Lu Yang's hand.

Then her mouth moved slightly.

"……you."

Just one word.

Done.

She quickly covered her eyes, then turned around, pretending she hadn't seen anything, and walked towards the door.

"Excuse me, both of you!"

Li Xixue was the first to react, taking a step back and shaking off Lu Yang's wrist.

"stop!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan stopped abruptly, then slowly turned around, while simultaneously removing her hand from her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I didn't know you were there..."

Li Xixue took a step back, creating distance between herself and Lu Yang, and quickly said, "I... I was just explaining work to him."

"oh……"

Chen Yan nodded very seriously: "I understand, I understand."

Li Xixue glared at her.

That expression looks so irritating; she's clearly questioning herself.

"We...we really were talking about work."

"Okay, Mr. Li, you're discussing work, I understand."

Li Xixue pointed at Lu Yang, who had remained silent, and continued to argue: "If you don't believe me, ask him yourself. We were just talking about the supporting infrastructure planning for Chonghai New City, really."

"President Li, you really don't need to explain so much..."

Chen Yan nodded, cooperating perfectly:

"I'm just a lowly employee; I have no right to interfere in my boss's affairs."

At this moment, her facial expression had switched to professional mode, but she couldn't suppress the slight curve at the corner of her mouth.

Let's talk about work?

What kind of job requires talking mouth-to-mouth?

Would you believe me if I told you that?

They actually did this in the office...

President Li is getting bolder and bolder!

If we let them continue like this, it probably won't be long before President Li will be able to take maternity leave.

"..."

After hearing that,

Li Xixue's face grew increasingly embarrassed; she realized that the more she explained, the less clear things became.

So annoying!

How did they manage to see it!

Oh wait, I didn't do anything!

Li Xixue closed her eyes, inhaled, and then exhaled.

Forget it.

If I continue explaining, it probably won't be clear even by dawn.

She straightened her shirt collar, quickly suppressing her emotions, and her tone returned to its usual indifference.

"What did you just say?"

Chen Yan quickly realized what was happening and immediately said, "Oh right, President Li, Sun Zhiyuan is here."

"Sun Zhiyuan?"

Li Xixue frowned.

Not only her, but Lu Yang also frowned.

What's this guy doing here?

"Yes, he's downstairs in the lobby right now, saying he wants to see you."

Chen Yan turned her gaze to Lu Yang: "The receptionist asked, and the other party did not make an appointment in advance, but said they had an urgent matter and hoped to talk to you and Specialist Lu in person."

Li Xixue didn't speak.

"You want to talk to us in person?"

Lu Yang was stunned.

Upon closer reflection...

Sun Zhiyuan ran over at this moment, and his intentions were obvious to anyone.

Dingsheng received word of the planning approval.

With a billion yuan in compensation looming over him, anyone would panic.

"Should we let him come up?" Chen Yan asked.

Li Xixue didn't answer, but instead looked at Lu Yang: "What do you think?"

"?"

Chen Yan looked puzzled. She first looked at Li Xixue, and then at Lu Yang.

What's wrong with President Li today?

Isn't she the one who usually makes the decisions?

And upon closer inspection, the person sitting in the president's seat is Lu Yang.

As for Li Xixue standing to the side, she seemed to be...

A secretary.

Lu Yang shrugged: "Um... after all, you're my classmate, so you should make the decision."

Okay... I shouldn't have asked him.

Li Xixue withdrew her gaze and said calmly to Chen Yan, "Let him come up."

Chen Yan nodded and turned to leave.

As she reached the door, she glanced back at Lu Yang, then silently moved her lips.

Lu Yang read her lip movements.

"come on."

Lu Yang rolled his eyes.

The door closed.

Lu Yang sat in the CEO's chair and tapped his fingers on the table.

Sun Zhiyuan is coming.

Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be handled by Li Xixue.

But the problem is...

Lu Yang glanced at Li Xixue standing beside him.

She stood with her hands behind her back, looking very straight, like a detached secretary who had no intention of interfering in her own affairs.

Yes, that was a pretty convincing performance.

"Um..." Lu Yang began.

Li Xixue tilted her head: "Hmm?"

"What should we do after Sun Zhiyuan comes up?"

Li Xixue blinked twice.

"You're asking me?"

"Yes, I'm asking you."

Li Xixue tilted her head, her tone innocent:

"Mr. Lu, I'm just a secretary. Shouldn't you be making decisions on such important matters?"

"After all, you're the CEO now."

"..."

Lu Yang twitched the corner of his mouth.

Well, this woman is taking revenge on me.

"I mean..."

Lu Yang rubbed his nose. "You handle the negotiations, I'll handle the execution."

Upon hearing this, Li Xixue's lips curled up slightly, but she quickly suppressed it.

"My current position is secretary, and a secretary's job scope does not include formulating strategic policies."

"Besides, I'm just keeping my promise, Mr. Lu. You said that today you're the boss and I'm the secretary."

"Secretaries don't make decisions; that's the rule."

"Besides, I'm just a lowly secretary, what makes me qualified?"
