"Mr. Fu, do you want some coffee? Do you want me to go to the coffee shop across the street to buy it? Mr. Fu, I think the coffee sold in those places may not be very clean!"

Chen Xia said with a frown, a hint of doubt and confusion on her face.

She really couldn't understand why a man of such noble status and prominent position as Mr. Fu suddenly wanted to drink that kind of instant coffee.

In Chen Xia's opinion, most coffee shops offer instant coffee, which she considers to be of average quality and even somewhat unhygienic.

Fu Yanchen sat at his desk, the sunlight from outside the window filtered through the half-open curtains, scattering on his face in patches, casting a faint golden glow on his already angular features.

His eyes were deep, as if he could see into people's hearts. At this moment, he was staring at the new assistant in front of him, Chen Xia, with a frown. How did Su Rou lead people? But now he didn't want to comment on someone casually, so he just said it lightly.

"Is there something wrong with what I said? Or didn't you hear it clearly?" The voice was low and magnetic, and every word seemed to carry a power that could not be ignored, making people want to answer involuntarily.

Chen Xia stood in front of the desk with her hands clenched, looking a little nervous.

She looked up at Fu Yanchen, his eyes as bright as stars made her heart tremble, and she quickly lowered her head again.

Her heart beat faster and her cheeks turned slightly red, as if she was captivated by Fu Yanchen's aura. For a moment, she was at a loss.

"No, no problem."

She finally squeezed out these few words, her voice was as thin as a mosquito, but with a hint of firmness.

"Since there is no problem, let's do it!"

"That... is..." Chen Xia wanted to say that her coffee tasted good, but seeing Fu Yanchen like this, she had to give in. She turned around and tried to leave, but seemed to remember something, so she stopped and turned to look at Fu Yanchen, "Mr. Fu, shall I go buy you some coffee now?"

Fu Yanchen nodded slightly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his eyes.

He pointed to a document on the table and said, "By the way, take this document and make a copy. It will be needed for the meeting later."

"Okay, Mr. Fu."

Chen Xia responded respectfully, reached out to take the document, and then turned and left.

Her steps were brisk and orderly. Although she was still a little nervous, her enthusiasm for work and sense of responsibility allowed her to quickly adjust her state.

After leaving the office, Chen Xia took a deep breath, as if exhaling all the tension and anxiety in her heart.

She walked quickly to the elevator, pressed the button, and waited for it to arrive.

The elevator door slowly opened, she walked in and pressed the button for the first floor.

In the elevator, Chen Xia took out her cell phone and checked the location of the coffee shop designated by Fu Yanchen.

Her eyes were firm and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she was telling herself: "I can do it. I can definitely do this job well."

The elevator reached the first floor and the door slowly opened.

Chen Xia stepped out of the elevator and walked towards the coffee shop with big strides in the afternoon sun.

Her figure lengthened in the sunlight, appearing exceptionally tall and confident.

Chen Xia stepped into the coffee shop designated by their boss, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

The interior of the store is exquisitely decorated, with retro chandeliers casting soft light, contrasting with the dark wooden furniture, creating a warm yet stylish atmosphere.

However, in the eyes of her, a person from the imperial capital who has seen the world, this luxury still seems a bit "petty" and is incomparable to those high-end coffee shops in the imperial capital that are often magnificent and golden.

She rolled her eyes slightly, a hint of subtle sarcasm appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she muttered to herself: "Boss Fu is really something. How can the helmsman of the Fu Group prefer coffee from such a small place? It's really hard to understand."

Just as Chen Xia was about to order, a clear voice rang in her ears: "Hello, what would you like to order?"

She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pretty waitress in uniform looking at her with a smile. This person was Sister Na. Sister Na's daughter had been discharged from the hospital, so she came to work.

There was a hint of curiosity in Sister Na's eyes, and she seemed quite interested in this strange woman who suddenly appeared.

Xu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the corner, also noticed Chen Xia's arrival at this moment.

She frowned slightly, and a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in her eyes.

She knew Chen Xia, who was Su Rou's assistant. When Xu Xiaoxiao lost her memory, she went to Fu Yanchen's company to play and met her. Naturally, she had some impression of Chen Xia.

However, what puzzled her was that Fu Yanchen had clearly told her that he only brought Lin Nuo with him this time, and no one else. How could Chen Xia appear here? Was Chen Xia not a human?

Could it be that... when Fu Yanchen said "no one" he only meant that he did not bring those formal, official entourage? Then what about Chen Xia? As an assistant, is she not counted as one of them? This is really confusing and puzzling.

Perhaps in Fu Yanchen's concept, only those with a specific identity or status can be called real entourage, while assistants like Chen Xia may be in a more vague boundary, neither belonging to the core members, but indeed having close working ties with him.

In this way, the expression "no one was brought" seems to have more room for interpretation.

Xu Xiaoxiao pondered secretly in her heart but did not show it. She just quietly observed Chen Xia's every move.

She saw Chen Xia looking at her, with a hint of strangeness and indifference in her eyes, and it was obvious that she did not recognize her.

At this time, Sister Na had already ordered food for Chen Xia. She smiled and said, "We have a wide variety of coffee here. What would you like to drink?"

Chen Xia glanced at the menu and said casually, "Just give our chairman a cup of coffee. Since he has designated you as his place, you should know what he drinks."

After saying that, her gaze fell on Xu Xiaoxiao again, and a trace of disdain and contempt flashed in her eyes. She had observed all the people in the store, and only Xu Xiaoxiao was somewhat pretty. As for the others, old or young, their chairman should not like them.

She did not recognize Xu Xiaoxiao and just treated her as an ordinary clerk. She thought that since their boss designated this store, there must be someone their chairman liked inside.

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard the word "Chairman" from Chen Xia's words, combined with Chen Xia's identity, she immediately understood - the "Chairman" Chen Xia was talking about was Fu Yanchen.

She sneered in her heart: "Fu Yanchen, Fu Yanchen, you are really a duplicity. You said you didn't bring anyone with you, but you even brought your secretary. It seems that this assistant's visit this time is not just for a simple cup of coffee, right? What is it? To show off her power? Boring."

At this moment, Sister Na smiled and nodded gently, but a trace of doubt suddenly flashed in her bright eyes, as if there was a fog shrouding them, making it difficult to understand. She pursed her lips slightly and asked softly, "Miss, who is this chairman you are talking about..."

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao on the side hurriedly explained: "Sister Na, you don't know! The chairman is the big boss of the company opposite us! Now you should understand, right?" After saying that, Xu Xiaoxiao blinked mischievously.

Hearing this, Sister Na suddenly understood, and the doubts on her face instantly disappeared without a trace. She quickly responded: "Oh, so that's how it is! Okay, miss, please wait a moment, I will go and prepare everything you need right away." After that, she turned around and walked lightly to the bar, began to grind coffee beans skillfully, and brewed coffee.

Xu Xiaoxiao was still sitting in the corner, her eyes unconsciously falling on Chen Xia.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and slowly swept her gaze over Su Rou's assistant.

The woman named Chen Xia was indeed extremely beautiful, like a delicate flower blooming in a secluded valley. Her facial features seemed to be carefully carved, and each of them showed her charming charm just right.

Under the tall and small nose bridge, the lips are as rosy and attractive as cherries; the big eyes are as bright as stars, flashing with lively light; the curved eyebrows are as slender and thin as willow leaves, and a slight lift can be captivating.

In addition, her soft and shiny long hair casually draped over her shoulders adds a touch of charm and attractive temperament.

Although they were in this small coffee shop at the moment, Chen Xia seemed to have her own light, attracting the attention of people around her.

Whether it was the busy waiters in the store or other customers, they couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

Chen Xia gently uttered the three words "Chairman". In an instant, Xu Xiaoxiao felt her heart tremble violently, and an indescribable strange feeling surged into her heart again.

This feeling is like being shrouded in a thin layer of mist, hazy and looming.

She couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking to herself: Why do I care so much about the man named Fu Yanchen?

Knowing clearly that he is just a fickle and indecisive scumbag, why should I care about the kind of women around him?

Her thoughts drifted away, and she couldn't help but recall Fu Yanchen's eyes as deep as a pool of water, as if they could easily see through the secrets deep in other people's hearts; he recalled his steady and magnetic voice, which sounded like the sound of nature every time he spoke; he recalled the calmness and confidence revealed in his every move...

However, even if all the beautiful memories of him keep emerging in my mind, what can it do?

After all, she and Fu Yanchen had parted ways long ago, ending their marriage life that was full of pain and torture.

Once upon a time, the hurt that Fu Yanchen brought her was like a deep scar, forever engraved on her heart.

The pain, betrayal and endless tears broke her heart so much that she still feels heartbroken when she thinks about it today.

Such a deep and unforgettable injury, I am afraid it will be difficult to make up for it even if I spend my whole life! Now, she only hopes to completely get rid of the shadow of the past and start a new journey of her life.

Xu Xiaoxiao pondered over it secretly in her heart, but still couldn't figure it out.

She looked at Chen Xia's cold and arrogant expression, and suddenly an inexplicable urge surged in her heart. She wanted to go up and talk to her and ask her about Fu Yanchen.

However, she knew that it was inappropriate to do so. After all, she was not familiar with Chen Xia, and if she rashly approached her to talk to her, she would only make herself appear abrupt and awkward.

She could only suppress her curiosity and impulse, sit quietly in the corner, and continue to observe Chen Xia's every move.

She saw Chen Xia take out her cell phone and seemed to be replying to some message, with a smile occasionally appearing on her face. Although the smile was short, it was enough to make people feel her inner joy.

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed in her heart that although Chen Xia was just an assistant, her life did not seem to be simple.

Perhaps, everyone has unknown stories and secrets behind them, just like herself, who also has many unspeakable thoughts and worries.

Xu Xiaoxiao's voice was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, with a barely perceptible tremor. She finally couldn't help but ask, "Are you Fu Yanchen's assistant? What about Su Rou?" This sentence was like an inadvertent stone thrown into Chen Xia's originally calm heart, causing layers of ripples.

Chen Xia was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that in this remote town, someone would suddenly mention Su Rou's name.

She quickly adjusted her mood, a hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, with a hint of inquiry in her tone: "Do you know Special Assistant Su?"

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, and there was some deep meaning in that smile, "I guess so. We have met a few times before. However, I am more curious, since you are Fu Yanchen's assistant, where is Su Rou now? Shouldn't she always be with Mr. Fu?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xia couldn't help but ponder in her heart.

Although she didn't know the relationship between Xu Xiaoxiao and Su Rou, since the other party mentioned Su Rou, it was obvious that she had some understanding of the people around Fu Yanchen.

She decided to answer carefully so as not to reveal too much information. "Assistant Su has some things to deal with recently, so he has left temporarily. I came here this time to do some personal things for Mr. Fu."

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, seemingly not surprised by Chen Xia's answer.

She gently stirred the coffee in her hand, her eyes flashing with complex light, "So that's how it is. It seems that the personnel changes around Mr. Fu are quite frequent. But then again, being able to follow Mr. Fu should be a very lucky thing, right?"

Chen Xia did not answer directly, but just smiled slightly, and that smile contained both pride and helplessness.

She knew that although she could see more scenery by following Fu Yanchen, she would also have to bear more pressure and challenges.

Not everyone can afford this kind of luck.

Although the conversation between the two seems ordinary, there are actually undercurrents.

Behind every word and sentence, there are thoughts and considerations.

"Then may I ask who you are to Master Su Rou?" Chen Xia blinked her big eyes and asked curiously. She secretly speculated about the relationship between the woman in front of her and Master Su Rou.

Xu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly: "Well, you should go back and ask your high and mighty chairman, Mr. Fu Yanchen!" After that, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was a hint of mystery in her eyes.

Chen Xia was stunned when she heard this. You know, few people in the company have the courage to call their awe-inspiring chairman by his full name so directly! This made her even more curious and confused about Xu Xiaoxiao's identity.

The coffee was ready, and Chen Xia was about to leave when Xu Xiaoxiao called her, "Wait..."
