Xi Xiaye held her forehead with a hand and calmly shut her laptop down. She took the document Xiao Mei delivered and got up. “Mmm, everyone should just obey Chairman Mu’s instructions. Pack up. We’re making a trip to the South River.”

There were some detailed questions that she needed to still inspect there before handling them. Because she would need to submit the proposal for the project next week, there was not enough time. With such a tight timeline, Xi Xiaye did not dare to delay.

“Okay, Director Xi!” Xiao Mei answered, then swiftly left to prepare.

Xi Xiaye quickly tidied up the documents on the table, stuffed them into her briefcase, and then took the windbreaker from the side as she walked out of the door.

She had just stepped out of Glory World Corporation when she faintly felt a chilly humidity in her face. Looking up at the sky, she saw that the horizon was filled with a haze. The boundlessly drab sky was drizzling, unlike the splendid sunshine before this.

When Xiao Mei came out with the things, she cried out, “Eh? It’s raining! Director!”

“It’s not too heavy. Bring an umbrella along!” Xi Xiaye lowered her eyes and sighed to herself. She could not care much about the cold that came attacking them. She took the briefcase in Xiao Mei’s hand and said, “I’ll wait for you in the car. Go and get an umbrella from the reception.”

Then, she took huge strides into the rain.

As Xiao Mei panted and rushed out with the umbrella, Xi Xiaye had already driven out of the car park and parked by the roadside.

Xiao Mei got into the car hastily and her keen eye noticed that in the passenger’s seat up front, Chairman Mu’s windbreaker and briefcase seemed to be there. Like the other colleagues in the company, they paid special attention to their Chairman Mu. Naturally, she would be familiar with his things.

Someone seemed to have seen Director Xi and Chairman Mu get down from the same car this morning, so now the entire company was buzzing around with rumors about the two of them…

Before Xiao Mei could not hold it in further, she stared at Xi Xiaye through the rearview mirror in front and asked carefully, “Director, people in the company are saying that you and Chairman Mu… are living together… Is that true? In fact, the ring on your finger… Director, are you married?”

When she heard this question, Xi Xiaye was astonished for a moment. She subconsciously looked at the ring on her finger.

Right, deliberately hiding it now would not work when there was something this obvious.

She thought about it and finally nodded. “I’m married.”

“Oh my God, is it Chairman Mu? Director? It must be Chairman Mu, right? I knew it! The way Chairman Mu looks at you is different from the way he looks at other women! That’s awesome! Even just thinking about it feels exciting!”

Once Xi Xiaye said that, Xiao Mei could not hold back and cried out in joy. She stared at Xi Xiaye in admiration. “Director, how did you… How did you two end up together?”

Xiao Mei was a little curious about this bit of juicy gossip.

To them, someone like Chairman Mu was someone out of reach, yet unexpectedly, he had been spoken for by their Director Xi. If she told the others this, it would make her look good! She could be elevated in front of the colleagues from the other departments!

“I’ll just tell you for you to know. We don’t need to end up having the whole company knowing. Otherwise, we’ll become the company’s hot topic. Understood?”

Xiao Mei was her personal secretary. In the future, she would need to be in contact with a lot of things, so Xi Xiaye treated her like one of her own.

“Is that so? Okay then, I understand. I won’t breath a word!”

Xi Xiaye smiled. “I’m not saying don’t let everyone know, but maybe later on.”

The two of them chatted and it felt like time flew by pretty quickly. Soon, they reached the south of the city, and at this moment it was still drizzling outside. The entire South River was engulfed in mist.

Xi Xiaye drove through some slightly narrow cemented trails, immediately driving up to higher land ahead. There they could get a bird’s eye view of the scenery around the South River.

At the end of the trail was a small viewing deck. Xi Xiaye parked the car on the side and Xiao Mei immediately got down from the car with the umbrella before walking over to Xi Xiaye’s side.

“Director!” Xiao Mei opened the umbrella and walked over while Xi Xiaye took out a folder and pen from her briefcase before getting down from the car too.

The rain was not heavy, but if they stood like that in the drizzle, their shoulders would be drenched in a short while.

The two of them followed the trail and walked to the deck. The cool, rustling breeze that came was very bitterly cold and they could not help but shiver a little.

“The scenery here is pretty beautiful. The South River runs for miles, Director Xi, look! It’s quite amazing!”

The sound of Xiao Mei’s cries came. Xi Xiaye followed the direction of her finger to look and saw that the South River below them was hidden amidst the hazy rain, seeming rather dreamy and surreal, lingering in the clouds and mist.

The huge plot of open land beside the South River was Xi Xiaye’s target for the day. She nodded slightly and then opened the folder in her hand as she glanced up to carefully examine the surroundings of the land below…

Xiao Mei stood behind her while holding the umbrella, watching the way Xi Xiaye focused on sketching with not a hair out of place. She wanted to ask her to put on another layer, but after that, she did not dare speak up to disturb her.

They walked along the viewing deck. Some time had passed when Xiao Mei felt herself shiver. In fact, her legs were a little numb from standing, but when she looked at Xi Xiaye, she saw that she seemed to be thinking about something. Her expression was calm and the document in her hand was filled with notes.

Finally, when Xiao Mei’s stomach made a rumbling sound, Xi Xiaye closed the document and turned to look at her assistant who was blushing from the awkwardness. She smiled. “It should be about time. Are you hungry already?”

“Director Xi…” Xiao Mei looked down feeling embarrassed.

“How about this? You go down and eat first, then go straight back to the office. Just go down and get a taxi. I’ll be fine by myself here. When you go back, make a trip to the Marketing Department. Tell them to get me a copy of the South River’s market research. I need it in the afternoon when I get back to the office.”

“Then, Director Xi, you…” Xiao Mei hesitated.

“I’ll go back in the afternoon. There’s an umbrella in the car that you can take,” Xi Xiaye said and then took the umbrella in Xiao Mei’s hand.

Xiao Mei did not dare to question her boss. She turned around and left.

Xi Xiaye continued to be busy. Not too long after Xiao Mei left, she was about to continue walking ahead when she suddenly heard the sound of a car honking from behind. She turned around and followed the source of the sound to look.

A gorgeous Rolls-Royce slowly entered her sight and she noticed that the car slowly stopped beside her car that she had parked by the roadside.

The driver’s door quickly opened, and a tall man in a black suit walked to the back seat with an umbrella. He respectfully opened the car door before a tall figure stepped out of the car…
