Chapter 896 - You’re not Indispensable
Xia Ruoxin looked in the direction that Secretary Xiao Chen was pointing in. Unknown to them, Chu Lui was standing there without making a sound. No matter how soft they were, he would have heard them even if they were whispering.
Secretary Xiao Chen bit her fingers before she scurried back to her position. She buried herself into her table while Xia Ruoxin stood up.
“Hello, CEO.” She nodded at Chu Lui before she sat down.
Chu Lui pursed his lips as if a little unhappy. His dark eyes seemed to be packed with gloom. He then walked away with big steps, his footsteps seeming heavier than it was before.
Secretary Xiao Chen put her hand against her neck and made a throat-cutting motion.
Xia Ruoxin smiled at her nonchalantly. That was because she knew that even though Chu Lui was not particularly friendly with his employees, he was quite tolerant of them… unless they went too far.
Therefore, they could rest easy. At the very least, their jobs were safe.
Xia Ruoxin picked up her mug and walked to the pantry. Coincidentally, Chu Lui was there, too. He had a cup of milk in his hands, and he was sipping on it.
“Brother Lui, why won’t you marry me?” Xia Yixuan shook her head as she hugged Chu Lui’s arm. “Did you forget about our feelings from back then? Did you forget that Auntie Song is still unconscious and needs someone to take care of her?”
Chu Lui removed his arm.
“My mom has caretakers,” he said plainly. Xia Yixuan was not indispensable.
