CHAPTER 189: CHAPTER 189: STRANGELY GOOD-LOOKING

During this time, Ye Xinluo called him a few times, but his phone was always off.

No idea what he’s been busy with lately, the phone’s been off the whole time.

[Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later.]

A mechanical female voice came through the receiver. Ye Xinluo pouted, placed the phone on the bedside table, and lay down to sleep.

The next morning, Ye Xinluo arrived at the company. Just as the elevator doors opened, she stepped inside, ready to close them when a man’s voice called out.

"Wait a moment."

Hearing someone speak, she instinctively pressed the door delay button without thinking.

Before long, a man in a dark suit walked in.

The man was tall, with fair skin, his hair was casually unkempt but still drew a second look.

They were the only two in the elevator, and the man gave Ye Xinluo a once-over, "Hey pretty lady, are you new here?"

Ye Xinluo glanced at him; isn’t this pick-up line a bit too clichéd?

"Yeah." She nodded in acknowledgment.

The man smiled, "I feel like you’re acting a bit strange today."

Come on, this is our first meeting, okay?

She internally rolled her eyes, figuring he was trying to chat her up. But it wouldn’t be right to ignore him completely, so she said, "How am I strange?"

The man thought for a moment, "Strangely beautiful!"

Ye Xinluo: "..."!!!

She decided to ignore him.

The elevator took some time to reach the top floor. Seeing her ignore him, the man said, "Well, I’m new here. What do you do?"

After a long pause, Ye Xinluo finally said, "President’s assistant."

"Oh..." The man nodded and didn’t say more. When the elevator reached the top floor, Ye Xinluo walked out, and the man followed her out.

Ye Xinluo looked at him suspiciously.

Isn’t he new? Why is he here? Could he also be a new assistant or secretary?

I always thought only women were interested in being the president’s secretary. Didn’t expect a man to be interested too.

Not thinking much about it, she went to her seat, put her bag down, and then headed to the break room.

"Hey, pretty lady, could you introduce me around? I’m still not familiar here."

Is this guy really a secretary or assistant?

She felt sure he was; why else would he be here?

Ye Xinluo thought for a moment, "Okay, hold on a second."

"Sure." The man smiled, a flawless smile that made her heart skip a beat.

Of course, excluding Ye Xinluo.

"So, what do you do?" Ye Xinluo thought for a moment and asked.

"I don’t know."

Don’t know?

Are you kidding me?

"Really?"

Could it be that this guy has a problem, not knowing what he does yet running to the top floor? Doesn’t he know it’s not a place you can just pop into?

But thinking about it, he’s new. Perhaps he really doesn’t know where he works!

"So, do you have a boyfriend?" The man smiled and asked.

Ye Xinluo: "Does that have anything to do with our conversation?"

Hearing her words, a peculiar look flashed in the man’s eyes, then he calmly said, "Since we’ve met, let’s be friends."

"Okay, sure." She nodded, "Do you want some water?"

"Thanks."

Ye Xinluo also poured him a cup. Seeing it was almost work time, she left the break room and returned to her desk.

During this time, the man followed Ye Xinluo, "You still haven’t told me your name."

Ye Xinluo smiled but didn’t answer him. After all, it’s their first meeting; she’s not in the habit of telling strangers her name.
