Chen Yan quickly added, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not being nosy, I just find it a bit strange. I've been by President Li's side for years, and I've never seen her proactively help anyone..."

Lu Yang gave a wry smile, unsure how to respond.

You can't exactly say, "I got a marriage certificate with your boss, and your boss is now my wife."

The truth is definitely not something I can tell.

If this gets out, the whole company will be in an uproar.

"Maybe they just find me more pleasing to the eye..."

Lu Yang gave a perfunctory reply.

Chen Yan narrowed her eyes, clearly not believing it.

Who would show such favoritism just because they like someone? They even fired long-time employees.

But she could also tell that Lu Yang didn't want to talk about it.

Chen Yan didn't press the matter. After chatting for a couple of minutes, she tactfully left.

After Chen Yan left, Lu Yang checked the time; it was already time to leave work.

Large companies like this have fixed closing times, such as 5:30 PM.

Lu Yang also left work without hesitation.

While waiting for the elevator, three or four colleagues stood next to him.

A boy wearing glasses, a girl with a ponytail, and two other young people who looked no older than Lu Yang.

The elevator arrived, and the group went in together.

"You must be Lu Yang?"

The boy with glasses suddenly spoke up and asked.

Lu Yang nodded: "Mm."

"Hello, my name is Zhou Ming, from the data team."

The bespectacled man introduced himself, then lowered his voice and said, "Dude, what you said today was absolutely brilliant."

Which sentence?

"Exactly, it was arranged by President Li, that line!"

The girl with the ponytail next to her chuckled as well.

"Manager Sun went back to his department and yelled for a full ten minutes."

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "You don't know what happened on your first day at work. This guy thinks he's something special just because he's a manager. He bullies everyone all the time. You really stood up for us today! That felt so good, so satisfying!"

"Haha, he couldn't compete with me in terms of connections. I saw he was so angry his face turned green."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang waved his hand and said, "I didn't actually do anything, I was just telling the truth."

"Tell the truth? Tell the truth in front of this bastard. Not many people in our company have the guts to do that."

"If I really had to say, it would probably only be President Li."

Lu Yang smiled but didn't say anything.

To be honest, he didn't plan to confront anyone directly today.

But since Sun Wenbo came looking for trouble, he couldn't very well bow and scrape and act like a subservient grandson.

Li Xixue assigned him tasks, and he did them.

As for who is dissatisfied, that's their business.

Ding!

At that moment, the elevator doors opened again.

A woman dressed in a black suit dress, her hair neatly styled, walked in with the crisp sound of her high heels clicking on the elevator floor.

"President Li!"

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

Several colleagues greeted him in unison, their expressions instantly turning serious.

Zhou Ming was chatting and laughing just a moment ago, but now he's so nervous he doesn't know where to put his hands.

Lu Yang, however, remained seated in the corner of the elevator, hands in his pockets, showing no reaction whatsoever.

Li Xixue nodded, which was her way of responding to the other people's greetings.

then,

Her gaze finally settled on Lu Yang, and she asked naturally, "Together?"

Two seemingly casual words changed the expressions of all the colleagues in the elevator.

What's going on?

What does Li Xixue mean by "together"?

Shall we go downstairs together?

Want to go together?

Should we go home together?

They had considered the possibility that Lu Yang and President Li had a connection, but they hadn't imagined it would be this deep.

Lu Yang shook his head: "No, I have something to do tonight and won't be going back."

Upon hearing this, Li Xixue's eyes narrowed into a straight line, revealing a hint of danger.

Lu Yang immediately opened his phone and replied: 【I have to go back to school tonight to pack my luggage, I'll move over tomorrow night.】

Li Xixue looked down at the message, her thumb lingering on the screen for two seconds.

No reply.

She shoved her phone into her bag, the elevator doors opened, her high heels clicking on the floor, and she was gone.

Zhou Ming secretly glanced at Lu Yang out of the corner of his eye, his lips twitching several times, but he didn't dare to ask the question.

The girl with the ponytail was quite bold and asked, "Was Mr. Li... angry just now?"

No one responded.

To be honest, this was the first time they had ever seen President Li angry.

Lu Yang, on the other hand, was quite composed.

Anyway, it's not the first time I've made her angry.

……

By the time I got back to school, it was already completely dark.

Lu Yang pushed open the dormitory door.

"Godfather, why are you only just returning?"

The three roommates responded immediately.

"I'm working overtime."

"work overtime?"

Wang Hao jumped off the bed. "What did you say? Overtime? You went to work today?"

"right."

Lu Yang tossed his bag onto the chair. "Today is the first day."

Li Yunbin took off his headphones: "You mean, Xueyu Group? You've officially joined the company?"

"The contracts have all been signed," Lu Yang said calmly.

"Holy shit!!!"

"Godfather is awesome!"

Wang Hao jumped up: "Where's your employment contract? Show it to me right now!"

Lu Yang took out the employment contract and threw it at the other party like trash.

Wang Hao picked up the contract and started taking pictures.

Lu Yang could tell from his expression that he was about to do something big: "What do you want to do?"

"That bastard surnamed Yuan is still smugly showing off; I'm going to slap him in the face!"

Wang Hao took a deep breath.

He had waited too long for this moment!

"I'm waiting to see him kneel on the playground, calling out 'Dad!'"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Send it now!" Xu Guangkun and Li Yunbin couldn't wait any longer.

Wang Hao quickly opened WeChat and found the class group.

Wang Hao first posted a message:

[@Yuan Xiangrong, last time in the cafeteria you said that if Lu Yang really got accepted by Xueyu Group, you would go to the playground, kneel down, and call him "Dad." Now, please begin your performance!]

The next second, a photo of the contract was also sent out.

The group was quiet for about half a minute.

Then it was like stirring up a hornet's nest.

[Holy crap???]

Is this for real or fake?

[An employment contract from Xueyu Group? Am I seeing things?]

Li Yunbin leaned over and glanced at Wang Hao's phone screen, then chuckled.

Sure enough, the group chat exploded!

Xu Guangkun peeked out from under the covers: "Let me see! Let me see!"

Wang Hao turned his phone screen around, and the three of them squeezed together to look at it.

The bullets in the classmates' group chat continue to fly.

[No, is this contract photoshopped?]

[Can an official seal be photoshopped? Look closely, it really is the seal of the Snowland Group.]

[I just searched it on Baidu, and the minimum requirement for internships at Xueyu Group is a 985 university degree. How did Lu Yang get in?]

Looking at the excited chatter in the classmates' group chat, Wang Hao's expression was like that of someone celebrating the New Year.

But after waiting for several minutes, Yuan Xiangrong still didn't show up.

Wang Hao tagged him again:

[@Yuan Xiangrong, where are you? The playground is ready, when are we going to kneel?]

Still no reply.

Li Yunbin chuckled: "Probably crying in bed."

The three people in the dormitory burst into laughter.

Lu Yang did not participate in their revelry.

next moment.

He suddenly received a message.

It was posted by Wang Ziying!
