He carefully sorted out the categories, then he said, “CEO Lu, during your meeting today, CEO Zhong’s personal assistant from Shengkong Group called you and asked if you are free to attend the charity banquet next week.”

Lu Wanggui’s hand that was holding a pen froze, his gaze fixed on the tip of the pen for a long time.

Gao Yuan didn’t notice the slight change in his movements. The Lu group didn’t have much business with Shengkong Group. However, among the big groups, no matter which company held a banquet, the others would show their face and support the banquet even if they didn’t have a working relationship.

Gao Yuan didn’t know much about Shengkong Group. He only knew a little about the purpose of their charity banquet.

The CEO of Shengkong Group was Zhong Qiyu. Zhong Qiyu was about the same age as Lu Wanggui. She was also a famous businesswoman. However, some people said that if her brother Zhong Huai was still alive, she wouldn’t be where she was today.

Gao Yuan had heard some things about Zhong Huai. If Zhong Huai was still alive, he would be about twenty-eight or twenty-nine this year. He had made a name for himself on Wall Street when he was twenty-one years old. He was truly a young talent.

It was a pity that the heavens were jealous of great talent. Zhong Huai had his family’s hereditary disease. It was said that the Zhong family’s hereditary disease was mostly passed down to the men in the family. When Zhong Huai was twenty-five years old, he could not be saved and was pronounced dead.

When Gao Yuan saw that Lu Wanggui did not make a sound and was frozen in place, he called out, “CEO Lu?”

Lu Wanggui finally came back to his senses. He smiled faintly and said, “Give CEO Zhong’s assistant a call. Tell him that my schedule is currently uncertain. If I have time, I will definitely attend the event. If I’m not free, the COO will be there on my behalf.”

Gao Yuan nodded. “Okay.”

Lu Wanggui looked at him. “It’s getting late. You should get off work and go home first.”

Gao Yuan nodded. After organizing his work, he turned around and left the office. The moment he left, the empty office was completely silent. Lu Wanggui leaned back against his office chair. He stared thoughtfully at the downpour outside.

After a busy day, Xiang Xiaoyuan was considerate enough to let Xu Xiyao leave work early. Seeing that it was pouring rain outside, she picked up the car keys and informed Lu Bei before driving away with Xu Xiyao.

Xu Xiyao sat in the front passenger seat with some restraint. “Actually, boss, you don’t have to drive me home.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan held the steering wheel with both hands, and the windshield wiper kept wiping the rainwater that hit the glass. Under the heavy rain, the roads looked blurry, so she was very focused on the road ahead. While talking to Xu Xiyao, she said, “If you go home too late in this weather, your family would be worried. Since you’re so busy today, you must be exhausted. Hurry home and rest.”

Xu Xiyao was still a little shy. He was a reserved person, while Xiang Xiaoyuan was lively. Although they had only been together for a short time, the two of them still got along well.

On the way, Xiang Xiaoyuan thought of something, she chuckled and said, “Actually, it’s all thanks to you for improving the Oden’s recipe. Otherwise, business wouldn’t be so good. I’ll consult a lawyer later and see if we could sign a contract. I can’t let you work for nothing.”

Xu Xiyao paused for a moment. “There’s no need.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan didn’t continue to discuss this with him. She changed the topic and asked, “You guys are going to take the university entrance exam next year, right? Do you have any universities in mind?”

“I want to become a doctor,” Xu Xiyao said. “So I’ll focus on medical universities.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan nodded. “I see. Being a doctor is good. In the future, I’ll look for you when I need to see a doctor!”

Unlike his usual cold self, he actually made a joke. “I’m more interested in cancer research.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan: “…”

She immediately changed her mind. “Then I hope that I don’t have to see you in the hospital for the rest of my life.”

Xu Xiyao laughed cheerfully and nodded with a faint smile. “Okay.”

Xu Xiyao’s home was in the old district, and the area was not very good. He did not feel inferior due to his background. But for some reason, when he saw the dirty and narrow street in front of him, he said before they reached his house, “Boss, you could stop by the roadside. I can get off here.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan looked outside. The weather was gloomy and the rain was still heavy. “Is this okay?”

Xu Xiyao nodded.

Xiang Xiaoyuan did not force him and nodded. “Then you have to be careful on the road.”

Just as Xu Xiyao pushed open the car door, a hoarse and tired female voice came through the rain.. “Ah Yao?”
