Chapter 157: Chapter 83 The girl named Rong Yue who was just here obviously likes you_2

Song Qiao and Ning Wan lived on the sixth floor, neither high nor low. Just as they stepped into the elevator and were about to close the door, they heard a hurried "wait a moment."

Song Qiao quickly pressed the elevator open button, stopping the doors from closing and then they slowly reopened. Before they were fully open, a figure rushed in, followed by a very pleasant female voice saying, "Thank you!"

Following the voice, Song Qiao saw a young woman dressed in sportswear, her hair pulled back into a high ponytail, looking youthful and vibrant with a slight sweat on her face and a towel draped around her neck. Clearly, the woman had just finished running and turned to smile at Song Qiao.

Just as Song Qiao was about to look away, she noticed the woman’s gaze fixate on Lu Jingchen, her eyes widening in shock and surprise as she stared intently at him.

Song Qiao remained composed, a thought flashing through her mind—this woman knew Lu Jingchen.

Sure enough, the next second, as if finally recognizing Lu Jingchen, the woman’s lips moved, and she spoke with shock and disbelief, "President Lu?"

Lu Jingchen had been looking straight ahead all along, not paying any attention to the girl. Now hearing someone calling him, he slightly turned his head to look at the woman beside him, his other arm still wrapped around Song Qiao, he indifferently uttered, "And you are?"

Finally certain that it was indeed Lu Jingchen, the woman quickly smiled sweetly, her smile coy and charming as she excitedly introduced herself, "Hello President Lu, I’m Rong Yue from the design department. You probably don’t know me, but I saw you at the company’s annual meeting last year."

CK Company’s annual meeting is always held in An City but they also host smaller additional gatherings for some of the more outstanding employees, which could take place anywhere in the world. Last year, Lu Jingchen was managing work in England, so the company covered the round trip costs for those outstanding employees.

She was one of the top employees last year and, coming from an ordinary family, it was her first trip abroad.

It was the first time Rong Yue had seen such a handsome man; she felt it was a case of love at first sight.

Lu Jingchen was so handsomely attractive that even though he was just there, not even giving an opening speech and sitting by himself, his quiet demeanor, as if a celestial being descending to Earth, had set her young heart racing.

Seeing Lu Jingchen now, Rong Yue felt like her heart was about to jump out. Although it had been rumored for a while that Lu Jingchen had returned to take over as the president of their company, few people inside the company had seen him, apart from the president’s office staff and some executives. Probably even the cleaners, who were everywhere and known as the human radars of the company, had not seen him.

Rong Yue’s face wore a girlishly pink smile, her cheeks unconsciously flushed with a rosy tint.

Song Qiao stood on the other side, not between Lu Jingchen and Rong Yue, with Lu Jingchen standing between her and Rong Yue. So, Rong Yue was still reasonably close to Lu Jingchen, feeling somewhat awkward about where to place her hands and feet.

However, Song Qiao had lived here for so many years and this was the first time she had seen Rong Yue, a completely unfamiliar face. Although she couldn’t claim to know everyone in the complex, she had seen almost everyone over time, truly, time is a good thing for getting to know your surroundings.

Lu Jingchen’s brows furrowed, clearly not recognizing Rong Yue, and after a faint hum, he did not speak again, seeming to keep her at a considerable distance.

But Rong Yue, as if oblivious to his indifference, continued enthusiastically, "President, are you here to visit a friend? I just moved in yesterday and was wondering who your friend is. If you have time, you could come and visit my place."

The girl’s voice was soft yet firm, so it was quite pleasant to listen to, but Song Qiao, maybe because of her own mood, felt the girl was a bit too noisy.

Song Qiao interpreted it in her own way, simply wishing to enjoy a quiet elevator ride.

"I’m here with my wife!" As soon as the girl finished speaking, Lu Jingchen uttered this sentence in a detached tone.

The man’s arm tightened even more around Song Qiao’s waist. Just as they reached the sixth floor and the elevator door opened, Lu Jingchen walked out with a firm hold on Song Qiao’s slender waist, a scene that Rong Yue, who had just spoken enthusiastically, caught sight of.

Rong Yue looked somewhat astonished at the way the man was holding Song Qiao, her smile freezing and her complexion slowly losing its color, speechless for a long while.

Lu Jingchen, however, paid no attention to her expression and walked out of the elevator with Song Qiao in his arms, though no one saw the fleeting shadow that crossed his face.

Once the elevator doors closed again, Song Qiao couldn’t help but look up and glare at Lu Jingchen, her face showing a touch of coquettish displeasure, clearly a bit upset.

Lu Jingchen looked down at her, raising an eyebrow slightly, "What’s wrong?"

"That girl named Rong Yue obviously likes you, didn’t you notice?"

Lu Jingchen’s expression was unchanged, his lips parting leisurely as he calmly uttered a few words that almost made Song Qiao want to hit him, "So?"

He clearly knew there was more to Song Qiao’s words; in fact, he knew what Song Qiao was about to say next.
