"Qiao Jian, why haven't you brought in the document that I requested?"
Qiao Jian stood up swiftly . "Yes, I'll bring it over now . "
After his swift reply, he didn't dare waste any more time and went back to his work station to retrieve the document . After which, he walked over to Yan Rusheng and handed it over to him .
He smiled at him obsequiously .
Yan Rusheng shot him a cold glance . "You seemed to be very idle . This afternoon, go over to Jincheng City to deliver the documents . "
"Huh?" Qiao Jian was shocked . "Oh, alright . "
No one liked to go on a work trip as it's always on a rush and exhausting .

Yan Rusheng ignored Qiao Jian's reaction and looked at Xuxu who was holding the dessert in one hand and casually sipping on her drink . Then, he averted his gaze to the documents in front of her .
He had the urge to call out to her but, he restrained himself in the end and went back to his office and shut the door .
Xuxu put down her dessert and was about to sign on the documents when the telephone on her desk rang .
"Please come in . "
A familiar voice sounded on the phone . Instinctively, she turned her head and looked at the President's office and answered, "Ok . "
After ending the call, she walked over to Yan Rusheng's office and strongly pushed the door open .
She closed the door lightly after she entered and walked towards Yan Rusheng . "President Yan . "
Yan Rusheng halted his work and picked up his glass of water, drinking and talking to Xuxu at the same time . "Today is Lu Yinan's grandfather's ninetieth birthday . Go and get ready . "

"You are bringing me along?" Xuxu asked in astonishment .
After hearing Xuxu's query, Yan Rusheng stopped drinking and stared coldly at Xuxu . "We are still husband and wife . "
Did she think that he would bring someone else instead?
She sounded so calm and collected and not in the least concerned .
"Alright . " Xuxu nodded her head . "What about the birthday gift?"
She wanted to ask if she needed to prepare the birthday gift when Yan Rusheng interrupted her . "Already arranged . You just need to get yourself ready . "
"I got it!"
After answering him, Xuxu didn't ask further and left his office .
When her figure disappeared, silence and emptiness resumed in his office . Yan Rusheng put down his glass and rummaged through his drawer for his exquisite metal cigarette case . He drew out a cigarette from it and stuck it in his mouth .
He lighted it and started smoking .
Cigarette smoke pervaded the air and his body was gradually enveloped by the smoke . The entire office was shrouded with gloom .
Bought dessert for her, she didn't believe .
Going to bring her out for social engagement, she was astonished .
There was nothing else he could do anymore . He could only blame himself for not being able to take a firm stand .
…
Since she didn't have to prepare for a birthday gift, Xuxu waited until it was clock-off time, after which, she went to the bathroom to put on some light makeup and redo her hair .
She assumed that since Lu Yinan's grandfather was from the military force and had fought in wars before, he must be a rigorous, simple person . Hence, her overall appearance must be in good taste and appropriate for the occasion .
That's why she didn't bother to change into a fancy attire . She took a look at herself in the mirror and was pleased . With a smile, she took a deep breath and turned around .
She raised her head and was caught off-guard by a pair of abstruse eyes . A look of astonishment flashed across her face .
Opening her mouth in shock, she caught sight of a man leaning on the marble wall of the bathroom entrance staring at her .
His sudden intrusion evoked a thousand layers of emotions in her .
Yan Rusheng was smartly dressed in his suit . One hand was stuffed into his pocket while the other hand was holding on to a cigarette . There were wisps of white smoke in the air and a long piece of cigarette ash had already accumulated on the cigarette . It seemed that he didn't smoke much .
