Chapter 69: Chapter 69 For Xia Yi

To be honest, Su Luo had not expected Chen Boxiong to actually show up.

"Okay."

Since the other party was willing to set aside their status and had given enough face, Su Luo didn’t mind making contact and seeing what exactly Chen Boxiong wanted.

"Sister Yi, you guys just play here, I’ll be right back," Su Luo said to Xia Yi before leaving.

"As friends of Mr. Su, today, all your expenses here are on the house. Just eat, drink, and have fun to your heart’s content," Brother Hu then told Xia Yi and the others.

After Brother Hu left, a waiter came in with a stack of membership cards and respectfully said, "These are membership cards provided by Brother Hu, each with a free credit of ten thousand yuan. We welcome you all to come and enjoy yourselves here more often."

Once the waiter also left, only the colleagues remained in the private room.

Instantly, everyone was abuzz.

The treatment they were getting just by following Su Luo was far beyond what any of them had imagined.

"My god, Su Luo has hidden so deep. He’s such a big shot yet he’s been mixing with us and punching the clock every day?"

"I can’t believe that one day I would get to know such a VIP. It’s just incredible."

The crowd was buzzing with various remarks.

"You say, Su Luo is so rich and has such high status, even big shots like Chen Boxiong give him so much respect. Why would he come to work?"

However, as soon as someone brought up this topic, everyone was puzzled.

Right.

Why?

"Do you think there’s a chance that Su Luo likes our President Lin and, just like those domineering CEO dramas, he’s hiding his identity and came to work at the company to pursue President Lin? After all, President Lin is the famous beauty CEO from our Jiangbei," someone suggested.

President Lin, naturally, referred to Lin Ruoxi.

"Impossible. If Su Luo really came here to chase President Lin, why would he join the marketing department? He would have gone to the president’s office or something, or simply put money into the company as a shareholder. Wouldn’t it be better to be in touch with President Lin every day?"

"I feel the same way. Su Luo has been in the company for two years, and I haven’t even seen him have any interaction with President Lin. Saying he came to the company because of President Lin doesn’t quite add up."

"Now that you mention it, why do I feel like Su Luo is here for Xia Yi? She’s the one he’s had the most contact with and he gets along best with her," a gossipy colleague chimed in.

"Yeah, just before Su Luo left, he spoke to our beautiful Xia Yi, which clearly shows how much she means to him and how much he values her," another added.

Suddenly,

Everyone’s gaze was focused on Xia Yi.

Upon reflection, it really seemed to be the case.

If they replaced their recently discussed President Lin Ruoxi with Xia Yi then everything made sense.

Su Luo came to work at the company every day, just to see Xia Yi. He learned the ropes from her and was in the same team as her.

"Xia Yi, you and Su Luo..."

The looks in everyone’s eyes had changed somewhat, with a hint of ambiguity as they looked at her.

Xia Yi quickly said, "Don’t talk nonsense, Su Luo and I are just normal friends. Regardless of his purpose for coming to work at the company, it definitely isn’t because of me; besides, I’m already married."

"Then why are you blushing?" a female colleague laughed.

Xia Yi’s cheeks were now somewhat warm, with a reddish glow spreading over her fair complexion.

"Alright, let’s all stop teasing. Sister Yi has always treated Su Luo like a younger brother. Let’s not speculate wildly," At this point, a female colleague who was on good terms with Xia Yi quickly came to her defense.

Fortunately, it was mostly just playful banter.

Many of them knew Xia Yi well—she was a woman of integrity.

Nonetheless,

Xia Yi’s cheeks remained hot, even though most of her colleagues’ comments were made in jest.

But while the speaker may not have had harmful intentions, the listener might take it to heart.

Xia Yi couldn’t help but think, "Could it be that Su Luo really came to the company because of me? Insisting on coming to work every day?"

Otherwise, it didn’t make sense for someone as wealthy and influential as Su Luo to come to work every day, often handling business with her.

He surely wasn’t just trying to experience life, right?

But Xia Yi quickly dismissed the thought from her mind, feeling ashamed and embarrassed for even considering such an idea for a moment. She also didn’t think it was likely.

Meanwhile,

Su Luo had no idea that his departure had sparked such a discussion, causing Xia Yi a moment of distress.

At the invitation of Chen Boxiong, he made his way to the largest Emperor Hall.

"Mr. Su, you truly are a young achiever, to be so strong at such a young age. You really are a dragon among men in our Jiangbei, a youthful hero," Chen Boxiong started with direct praise, a smile on his face.

Su Luo smiled but wasn’t interested in Chen Boxiong’s flattering words. Instead, he got straight to the point, "Mr. Chen didn’t invite me over just to compliment me, did you? If Mr. Chen has something in mind, please speak plainly."
