"Sister Li, don’t worry, you will find your true love too," Xinxuan comforted. "Maybe your true love will appear in the next second."

Li Ziyang just smiled and said, "Impossible, at present I can’t find a man who can make my heart flutter. The man I like should either be smarter than me or more capable than me, otherwise, what right does he have to win me over?"

Xinxuan then took out a document from her bag, "Oh, this is the material our company has prepared for the next project. Sister Li, take a look, and we can work together to secure this project when the time comes."

"No problem."

Xinxuan then stood up and said, "Alright, Sister Li, I will be leaving now."

"Okay, I’ll walk you out."

"No need, Sister Li, you’re busy," Xinxuan said.

Xinxuan then left the office.

Li Ziyang watched her departing figure, noting she really was much happier than before.

Her face also wore more smiles.

Especially when bringing up that one boy.

She was brimming with happiness.

[Could it be... that love really has such magic?]

Ziyan became curious.

Since childhood, because of her father’s sudden passing, she had been forced to mature quickly.

Ziyan also knew that only by excelling in studies would she have a way out.

Even during the college entrance exams, she managed to get into one of the top five universities in the country.

It was also at this time that Mr. Lin, her father’s comrade-in-arms, generously supported her tuition fees, suggesting that she could work at his company in the future.

By taking these steps, one at a time, she had finally climbed to the position of president.

The words she had just spoken to Xinxuan were also from the heart.

As far as she knew, Xinxuan was also a strong, smart, and capable woman.

As an outsider, she had taken the position of president,

yet had Mr. Lin’s own daughter work as a general manager in another company.

It did seem a bit unkind.

So she tried as much as possible to cooperate with Xinxuan’s company, so that Xinxuan could also deliver a perfect report card for her position as general manager.

Meanwhile,

Xinxuan arrived at the base of Xingye Building, waiting for Gao Jun.

She noticed a dessert shop nearby and thought about buying some snacks to eat in the movie theater later.

Thinking that Gao Jun wouldn’t arrive so soon, she decided to head over there.

Just as she crossed the intersection, Gao Jun’s car arrived at the base of Xingye Building.

After getting out, Gao Jun looked around and sent a message to Xinxuan.

But he did not receive a reply.

Gao Jun thought she might still be in a business discussion, so he entered the building.

Thinking that he was now a minor shareholder of Qiangsheng Limited Company, he naturally had a legitimate reason to visit.

So he went to the elevator and pushed the button for the 13th floor.

At this moment, Ziyan emerged from her office with her bag in hand.

"Xiaoxia, I’m going to meet a client. If someone comes looking for me in the office, contact me on WeChat," she said.

"Okay, President Li," the response came.

Ziyan left the company and noticed a young, handsome man looking around in all directions.

Gao Jun also noticed her, remembering the woman he had seen entering the building before.

But the two merely exchanged glances without further interaction.

While Ziyan was waiting for the elevator, she saw Gao Jun walking into the company, and she called out, "Hello? Can I help you with something?"

Gao Jun turned back and replied, "Hello, nothing much, I just wanted to have a look at your esteemed company."

"Are you here for a job interview?" Ziyan asked, pointing to the reception desk, "You can go inside and ask the HR department at the front desk; they will take you there."

Gao Jun initially wanted to offer a further explanation, but thinking it pointless to say too much to her, he simply nodded in thanks, "Alright, thank you."

Ziyan had a phone call to take by then, so she chatted away and paid no further attention to what Gao Jun did next.

Gao Jun entered the company and was quite satisfied with its scale.

[I should look for a chance to talk with their manager.]

Even though he owned only 1.5% of the shares, he was a shareholder nonetheless and definitely had a right to know about the company.

After taking a brief look around, he left the company.

By this time, Ziyan had already pressed for the first floor and was preparing to go down.

Gao Jun used his hand to gently stop the elevator door from closing.

At that moment, Ziyan put down her phone and glanced at Gao Jun.

Gao Jun gave a slight smile and then stood beside her.

Li Ziyang didn’t pay much attention, thinking Gao Jun was just someone planning to come in for a job interview.

From his appearance, he did seem to fit her aesthetic quite well.

But good looks aren’t enough for a man; capabilities must be up to par.

Being competent is the most important thing!

Just as she was holding her phone, looking at the profiles being posted in the group, the elevator jerked to a stop before accelerating downwards.

Then, the lights inside the elevator began flickering nonstop.

Gao Jun quickly realized what was happening and first pressed the elevator alarm button.

Then he quickly pressed all the floor buttons.

The next second,

the elevator came to a halt.

Li Ziyang had never experienced this kind of situation before and was obviously panicked, cautiously asking Gao Jun, "What... what’s happening?"

"I don’t know, I guess the elevator broke down," Gao Jun explained.

He then took out his phone, turned on the flashlight, and asked, "Are you okay?"

At that moment, the light illuminated Li Ziyang.

Under the light, she seemed to be surrounded by a mysterious halo, her features looking even more delicate and unique amidst the play of light and shadow.

Her skin was as pale as jade, her eyes especially deep-set against the light, her nose high and elegant.

She wore a simple black blouse, the collar slightly open, showing off her delicate collarbone and graceful neckline.

Even though she appeared as a cold beauty, fear still occupied a significant portion of her facial expressions due to the sudden stop of the elevator.

She took out her phone and tried to make a call.

But there was no signal inside the elevator.

Gao Jun comforted her, "They probably know about it outside already; I’ve pressed the alarm button, they’re figuring out a way to help us now."

"Hmm..." pondering for a moment, Li Ziyang finally said, "Thank you for just now. If it weren’t for your quick response, I wouldn’t have known what to do."

"No need to thank me, I was also saving myself," Gao Jun replied.

After that, both of them experienced a silence that lasted for three minutes.

During this time, Li Ziyang stood in a corner of the elevator, clearly scared because it was just too quiet.

This also made her feel somewhat cold.

Gao Jun noticed her expression and asked, "Are you alright?"

"Hmm." Li Ziyang bit her lip.

Gao Jun looked at her and slowly walked towards her direction.

Li Ziyang lifted her head, slightly wary.

"Huddle together, that way it won’t be so cold," Gao Jun said as he sat down next to her and continued, "You sit down too, who knows how long we’ll have to wait?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ziyang actually agreed to his suggestion and sat down cautiously.

"You work for Qiangsheng Limited Company, don’t you? Why don’t you tell me about your company’s business and current operational direction," Gao Jun asked.

Li Ziyang was a bit puzzled.

But guessing that he probably didn’t know her real identity, it was rare for someone to converse with her from the perspective of an ordinary employee.

So, she also said, "Are you looking to join Qiangsheng?"

Gao Jun pretended to say, "Yes."

"Currently, our company primarily deals in the production of high-end machinery, shipping to multiple countries in Europe and America..." Li Ziyang conveniently began to explain.

After listening, Gao Jun was somewhat surprised, "An ordinary employee probably wouldn’t know as much about the company as you do; what’s your position at Qiangsheng Group?"

"I... I’m the President’s assistant," Li Ziyang explained.

"No wonder, here, let’s exchange WeChat contacts. My name is Gao Jun, how about you?"

"My name is Li Ziyang."

"Ziyan, that’s a nice name, haha, do you think I have a chance to become your colleague?"

Listinging to him say this, Li Ziyang purposefully said, "Our company is quite strict in screening, but I can check for you."

"Thanks a lot," Gao Jun didn’t seem to mind, "I’ll treat you to milk tea when that happens."

"Okay."

Perhaps it was rare for someone to chat with her like this, Li Ziyang actually felt happy.

She inexplicably developed a bit of a liking for the young man in front of her.

She suddenly recalled something Lin Xinxuan said before she left.

[You will also meet your true love, perhaps your true love will appear in the next second.]

What she didn’t know was that because of the elevator incident, she was experiencing the suspension bridge effect.

[PS: The suspension bridge effect refers to the situation where a person’s heartbeat speeds up involuntarily while crossing a suspension bridge out of fear.

If at this time, they happen to meet another person, they might misinterpret the increased heartbeat caused by this setting as a physiological reaction to the other person making their heart race, thereby developing feelings of love for that person.]

[So, you can take a girl to amusement parks, haunted houses, and such places.] (This PS is included at no extra charge)
