She knew that the old man was afraid that she would watch over him strictly, which was why he wanted to chase her away . She was determined not to let him have his way . "Grandfather, I'm staying here today no matter what you say . "
"If you send Qi Lei back, what do I do if I need to use the toilet?"
The old man questioned her in a huff .
"Hmm!" Xuxu was stumped for words . If Qi Lei wasn't around, what would she do indeed?
Qi Lei interjected, "Sister Xuxu, you should go to work . I slept well last night since Brother Ah Heng stayed with Grandfather for the whole night . Later I'll take a nap when Grandfather is asleep too . "
"Mmm . . . Alright then . " Xuxu pressed her lips . "I'll pop by after work . "

The old man seemed to be fine and other than chatting with him, there was nothing much she could do for him .
But apparently, the old man didn't want her to stay as well .
She instructed Qi Lei, "You must immediately update me with any news, alright?"
Before Xuxu closed the door behind them, she glanced at her grandfather with a worried look .
Jiang Zhuoheng said reassuringly, "Don't worry, I've already reminded the staff . They will take special care of him . "
"Ah Heng, thank you," Xuxu thanked him softly .
They both left together .

It was half-past ten when Xuxu reached the office . Several colleagues were huddled closely together and seemed to be discussing something .
"What are you all talking about?" She looked at the group of people with a smile as she walked towards her desk .
The crowd immediately gathered around her desk . "Sister Xuxu, we can start wearing pretty outfits to work in the future . "
After hearing this, she stopped and looked at them curiously . "What do you mean?"
A plump colleague replied gleefully, "We just received a notice saying that the company has abolished the rule of wearing standard work attire to the office . In the future, we just need to be presentable . "
Xuxu asked in surprise, "Really?"
According to her understanding, wearing the standard work attire had been a company rule for years . Why was it abolished all of a sudden?
"Look how happy you are . Seems like you're happier about this than meeting your idol," joked another colleague as she teased the plump lady .
"For skinny girls like you, it doesn't really matter . But to plump girls like me, this is a huge blessing . You have no idea how uncomfortable it is to wear tight-fitting clothes to work every day . "
Xuxu didn't really listen to the rest of the conversation . She lowered her head and stared at her outfit .
She couldn't help thinking about what the lecherous guy had said in the elevator yesterday .
'Aren't you trying to seduce guys by wearing this outfit in the elevator?'
Did Yan Rusheng . . .
But even if she were the reason, it wouldn't be just for her sake alone . He must have been thinking for the safety of all the female employees in the company .
Anyway, wasn't she supposed to leave soon?
Wen Xuxu curled her lips as she mocked herself for reading too much into it .
Besides having lunch together, Wen Xuxu and Yan Rusheng didn't interact much .
After work each night, Xuxu went to the hospital to have dinner with her grandfather . Jiang Zhuoheng would pick her up after work at around 8 p . m . to send her home .
They repeated the routine for the next few days; she would head to the hospital in the morning, then to work, and then back to the hospital in the evening . Then Jiang Zhuoheng would fetch her after leaving work and send her home .
Occasionally they would have dinner together .
Tonight, she was back home earlier as Yan Rusheng watched her draw the curtains by the window . Her silhouette changed from clear to blurry .
