The man seemed a bit embarrassed to have been caught by Ye Shengge. He rubbed his nose and said, âSister-in-law, Iâm Yu Shuhang. Weâve met before.â
Ye Shengge was enlightened. âAh... I remember now. Youâre Shitingâs friend!â
âThatâs right!â Yu Shuhang smiled upon seeing that she still remembered him. âYouâre here for Shiting? I have something to talk to him about. Letâs go up together.â
âOkay!â Ye Shengge couldnât have hoped more.
The receptionist couldnât have been more familiar with Yu Shuhangâs face, so she didnât stop him. They walked into the elevator dedicated to the president, and Yu Shuhang entered the elevatorâs password. Ye Shengge stared at it.
âThe password of this elevator will be changed every now and then, so you donât have to remember it.â Yu Shuhang smiled. âIâll call Shiting each time I come to look for him. Just call him directly.â
Ye Shengge looked away and nodded.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
They speak anymore, but Yu Shuhang kept staring at her as if he was trying to figure something out.
Ye Shengge thought he was just curious, so she held back. Fortunately, the elevator stopped soon.
âYou first, sister-in-law.â Yu Shuhang was a gentleman.
âNo, you can go first.â Ye Shengge smiled. âI donât have anything important to do. Iâll go in after you two have your talk.â
âThen, thank you, sister-in-law.â Yu Shuhang accepted her kindness. He had something important to discuss with Ji Shiting.
He then walked out of the elevator, opened the office door and walked in.
There was an open working area outside the office, where Ji Shitingâs assistants and secretaries worked. Ye Shengge didnât want to disturb them, so she found an empty desk and sat down. No one noticed her as they were busy.
...
Inside his office, Ji Shiting was going through some documents. He closed the file when he noticed Yu Shuhuang. âYouâre here?â
âThe project you gave me last time. The one in the west of the city,â Yu Shuhang said. âItâs been stagnating because of the Xiao family.â
âThe Xiao family?â Ji Shiting was a bit surprised. âWhy would Xiao Cheng have a bone to pick on you? Is it because youâre Yanzeâs friend?â
âItâs impossible that Xiao Cheng doesnât know about what happened between Yanze and Li Yinian. If he minds it, he wouldnât even agree to marry her,â Yu Shuhang said.
âThen it would be Xiao Ruilang, Xiao Chengâs son.â Ji Shiting knocked on the desk and sneered. âHis father is about to marry a stepmother close to his age, so of course he wouldnât want it to go through. Given his personality, heâs going to do everything he can to prevent it.â
Yu Shuhang grimaced and said, âXiao Ruilang is like a poisonous snake. Itâs not a good thing being a target of his.â
âHe still isnât the head of the Xiao family yet. Xiao Cheng hasnât died yet,â Ji Shiting said. âXiao Cheng probably doesnât know about this, so Iâll talk to him later. Xiao Ruilang wonât dare to disobey him.â
âThen Iâll leave it to you. Fortunately, you still have some friendly ties with Xiao Cheng.â Yu Shuhang breathed a sigh of relief, then he changed the topic. âBy the way, donât you think sister-in-law looks like someone?â
Ji Shiting raised his eyebrows. âYou mean Shengge?â
âThatâs right. I felt that she looked a little like Ling Yutong the first time I saw her. Donât you think so?â Yu Shuhang couldnât help asking.
