The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life
Episode 79 Extreme Pull
The next day, Lu Xinyue, dressed exquisitely and walking with confidence and determination, appeared elegantly downstairs of Tan Yichen's company.
Xing Feng had been waiting for her for a long time. She was very pleased and said to Xing Feng: "I feel very honored that Manager Xing came to greet me in person." Such treatment made her feel respected.
Lu Xinyue walked inside, and Xing Feng's words rang out behind her! Lu Xinyue couldn't help but stop.
"Boss Lu, I'm afraid we need to adjust our workplace." Xing Feng's voice was steady and firm, like an invisible force pulling Lu Xinyue's sight. She turned her head in confusion, only to see Xing Feng motioning her to move forward in a leisurely manner.
Lu Xinyue immediately followed Xing Feng's steps, got into his car, and came to the downstairs of the building that once belonged to Yi Haotian's company. Everything in front of her was too familiar to her, and memories came flooding back like a tide. A touch of sadness came quietly, but Lu Xinyue took a deep breath and faced it with a calm and composed attitude, never letting Xing Feng see any clues.
She felt a different atmosphere in the air downstairs. Her memories of the past were mixed with worries and curiosity about the unknown. But she knew that no matter what challenges and changes she faced, she needed to stay calm and strong.
Then, Lu Xinyue took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She followed Xing Feng upstairs calmly.
Arriving at the familiar yet unfamiliar floor, the atmosphere of the entire company was completely new and completely different from the past. This made her feel excited and sigh at the changes here. In front of her, a tall, capable woman in a professional dress was standing at the elevator door waiting for them. Her appearance gave people a warm and harmonious feeling like a spring breeze. When she saw Lu Xinyue and Xing Feng, she bowed politely and greeted them with a smile: "Manager Xing, President Lu, welcome to our company. I am Amy, the manager's assistant. Now I will lead Manager Lu to her workplace."
Xing Feng and Amy exchanged glances, conveying a tacit understanding and trust between them. He nodded slightly, as if to tell her: "Everything is under control." And Amy proved her professionalism with her professional attitude and efficient actions. "Mr. Lu, you are busy, I will go back to report!" Xing Feng half-jokingly walked into the elevator and left.
Amy led Lu Xinyue into the conference room gracefully and gently told her that the general manager was discussing important matters with a partner at the moment and would come to meet her later. Lu Xinyue nodded politely, expressing her understanding and waiting.
Amy's voice was like a spring breeze, soft and pleasant, just like her gentle temperament, making people feel extremely comfortable. She asked softly: "Mr. Lu, would you prefer a cup of fragrant coffee or a cup of refreshing tea?"
After a moment's thought, Lu Xinyue answered concisely and clearly: "Coffee, thank you!" Her answer seemed capable and polite.
Amy then brought the coffee and left the meeting room.
Lu Xinyue was filled with anxiety and uneasiness at the moment, as if a premonition was quietly brewing. Although she tried her best to sort out her thoughts, she still couldn't tell the reason. At this moment, the sudden sound of the door opening broke through her inner confusion, followed by a burst of hurried footsteps. She turned around involuntarily and saw Qiu Yingjie leading several people into the conference room with extraordinary momentum.
A trace of doubt flashed across Lu Xinyue's face, and this subtle expression did not escape Qiu Yingjie's sharp eyes. He nodded gently with a proper courtesy, then walked past her gracefully and went straight to the center of the conference table. This simple action and eye contact gradually made Lu Xinyue's originally vague doubts clear up - it turned out that Qiu Yingjie had taken over Yi Haotian's company. Her mood also fluctuated accordingly.
Lu Xinyue sat down lightly. To her surprise, Qiu Yingjie called Amy directly. She walked over with a stack of documents in her hands. Lu Xinyue keenly noticed that Amy's eyes looking at Qiu Yingjie were different. A woman's sixth sense told her that there was another kind of emotion in it. It was a look full of admiration and love, which made Lu Xinyue feel a little strange in her heart, and her emotions seemed a little erratic.
"Now, please allow me to formally introduce the person in charge of our project for the next month." Amy continued in a clear voice: "First, the general manager of ST Company, Mr. Qiu Yingjie. Next, the general manager of our Lu Group, Ms. Lu Xinyue. Of course, there are also all the hard-working colleagues in our team." Qiu Yingjie and Lu Xinyue clapped their hands absent-mindedly. But Lu Xinyue did not have the courage to look up at him. After all, she was afraid that he would be resentful of yesterday's rejection.
"Everyone, from this moment on, we will devote our passion and wisdom to this project wholeheartedly. Every member should give full play to their potential, unite every strength of our team, and pursue excellence unswervingly. We firmly believe that in a month, we will be able to achieve greater success and write a new glorious chapter. Let us work together to live up to our youth and ourselves." The sonorous and powerful words were in our hearts. Thunderous applause rang out in the conference room. Only Lu Xinyue looked at Amy, and her eyes revealed her admiration and respect for Qiu Yingjie.
Xing Feng walked into Tan Yichen's office and gave him a work report in a firm tone.
Tan Yichen still asked with doubt: "Are you sure Amy is reliable?"
Xing Feng responded with a confident attitude: "Amy is indeed reliable at work. But when it comes to emotional variables, for example, if Qiu Yingjie is really moved, then it is beyond our control. In other words, brother, it is none of our business!"
However, Tan Yichen's eyes suddenly became stern. Xing Feng immediately realized the change in the atmosphere and kept silent.
Tan Yichen stared at him and said earnestly, "If he fails to take down Lu Xinyue, the losses we face will be incalculable. Have you calculated the risks?"
Xing Feng nodded slightly, knowing the seriousness of the situation: "I understand, brother. What I said just now was just a joke, please rest assured." He did not realize at this time that Amy was quietly carrying out her personal plan.
The first time she met Qiu Yingjie, Amy had already fallen in love with him. Although she was unaware of the entanglement between Lu Xinyue and Qiu Yingjie, every action she took was silently laying out the unknown emotional trend. This subtle emotional change is still hidden.
For several days, Lu Xinyue and Qiu Yingjie's interactions were limited to work exchanges in the conference room. There was no gossip between them, and Lu Xinyue only communicated with other colleagues. This situation made Amy suspicious. She keenly noticed that Lu Xinyue seemed to be deliberately avoiding eye contact with Qiu Yingjie, and there must be some unknown secrets behind this.
Lu Xinyue's behavior made Amy determined to find out the truth. She knew that in this competitive environment, any subtle dynamics could affect personal interests and the reshaping of relationships. Therefore, she vowed not to let anyone take advantage of the opportunity, especially those who coveted Qiu Yingjie. She had vowed to take down Qiu Yingjie. Although this violated the task conditions given to her by Tan Yichen, she could not suppress her heart. She impulsively wanted to completely possess this man.
After several days of exhaustion and tension, Lu Xinyue was exhausted both physically and mentally. At this moment, she longed to return to her quiet home as soon as possible and enjoy a moment of peace. However, when she tried to get up, she felt dizzy and lost her balance in an instant, almost falling to the ground.
At this moment, Qiu Yingjie rushed forward like the wind, supported her body with steady steps, and held her shoulders firmly in his arms. Although it was only a brief contact, the touch made him feel at ease.
Lu Xinyue pushed him away in a panic, and uttered words of thanks. She looked up and looked around, thankful that no one else was there.
"I want to go back and rest early today." She continued to bury her head in sorting out the scattered documents and no longer looked at Qiu Yingjie who was standing next to her.
Qiu Yingjie stared at Xinyue's pale and weak face with eyes like the abyss, and deep worry and sympathy surged in his heart. He had originally expected to work with her and see her smile frequently, but unexpectedly, within just a few days, her body showed signs of fatigue due to excessive work. This was definitely not what he had expected.
"Go back early." His voice revealed helplessness and concern, and he turned and left. After a brief hesitation, Lu Xinyue picked up the documents and quickly followed him out of the meeting room.
When she arrived downstairs of the company, the outside world was already turbulent. Lightning intertwined in the dark night, and the storm came as expected. The sky was covered by dark clouds and it was almost impossible to see the road ahead. The bad weather was exactly the same as her mood at the moment, echoing each other. Lu Xinyue leaned against the solid French window, standing there absent-mindedly, as if she was lost in endless contemplation. She chose to wait until the wind and rain subsided before driving home.
At that moment, a warm current flowed through Lu Xinyue's body, which was the warmth brought by Qiu Yingjie's coat. She was immersed in the slightly cool air, and Qiu Yingjie approached silently and gently put his coat on her shoulders. However, Lu Xinyue did not appreciate it. She tried to take off the cloak and wanted to reject all his kindness.
Seeing this, Qiu Yingjie blocked her movements with his hands, his tone carrying a hint of reproach: "Don't be hard on yourself. You are wearing so thin clothes in this kind of weather. Put on my clothes, and I won't do anything to you. Why are you so willful!" After saying that, he did not forget to wrap her up with his coat.
Lu Xinyue felt helpless and amused at the moment. She couldn't help but glance at him and then looked out the window. The gloomy sky made her feel a little depressed, but Qiu Yingjie's eyes fell on her, and then he glanced at the watch in his hand and said, "Look at the weather, it won't get better in the short term, let's go upstairs."
When Lu Xinyue heard this, she couldn't help but ask in confusion: "What? Go upstairs?" Her tone revealed nervousness and confusion.
Qiu Yingjie was well aware of her concerns and tried hard to explain: "In fact, the top floor of our office building has prepared rooms for people who work overtime late at night. There are several rooms there for us to use. You won't be in the same room with me, don't worry." Knowing what she was thinking, he tried his best to dispel her doubts.
When she reached the top, she followed Qiu Yingjie in a different and gentle manner than usual. Her eyes wandered around, as if she was looking for something, but she didn't notice that Qiu Yingjie had quietly turned around and stopped. At this moment, she bumped into him unexpectedly, and he instinctively put his arms around her. But a moment later, he quickly loosened his hands, and his behavior revealed a deep restraint, because he knew that any slight transgression might make her stay away from him.
In the delicate interaction, the two were slightly restrained in the subtle atmosphere. Qiu Yingjie turned his face slightly and pointed to the room in front of him, with a little shyness in his tone: "This room is for you to stay in. I'm in the next room. If you have anything, you can find me immediately." His words revealed a deep affection that he was not good at expressing.
Lu Xinyue walked to the door lightly, her small movements seemed to be afraid of disturbing the tranquility. She slowly turned the doorknob, as if opening another world. When she turned back, she whispered to Qiu Yingjie behind her: "You should also go to bed early." Then, she pushed the door open without hesitation and closed the door without hesitation.
Qiu Yingjie entered another room and sat on the sofa, his heart full of regret and helplessness. He hated his current situation. The person he loved was close at hand, but he felt far away. The emotions deep in his heart were like being trapped in an invisible cage, which made him miserable. He was also frustrated and puzzled by his "unbreakable" situation: "When can I get rid of this weakness?" His heart was calling for an answer.
The next morning, Lu Xinyue came to Qiu Yingjie's door early because she went to bed early last night. She knocked on the door gently. As the door slowly opened, Amy came into view. She was adjusting the buttons of her clothes and her eyes were cast on Lu Xinyue.
Amy said shyly, "Mr. Lu, you're here so early. We just woke up not long ago." Lu Xinyue didn't peek into the room, but from Amy's expression, she had guessed what had happened.
Lu Xinyue pursed her lips and said, "No hurry, I'll go to the meeting room first!" After that, she strode away without waiting for Amy to speak.
Amy looked at her back and chuckled. After closing the door, Qiu Yingjie just came out of the bathroom. He asked, "Who knocked on the door?" Amy immediately covered up and said, "I heard it wrong."
"Oh, then quickly put away the documents and let's go to the meeting room." Qiu Yingjie didn't sleep all night yesterday. He didn't want Lu Xinyue to be so exhausted physically and mentally, so he wanted to do more work to reduce her burden. Unexpectedly, Amy came early in the morning. The two had to work together.
