Chapter 42  


***

After listening to Su Hang's analysis of her coffee shops last night, Shen Xi sorted out the necessary information and went to the bank to consult about the loan in the afternoon. After a consultation, Shen Xi found that everything was as Su Hang had told her and that the possibility of a loan was quite high.

So Shen Xi came out of the bank in a good mood. When she looked at the time, she found that it was almost 5:00 p.m. Seeing that the Su company building wasn't far from here and that a certain someone was about to leave for work, Shen Xi planned on picking Su Hang up and giving him a surprise.

"Hello, how can I help...Madam!" The little lady at the front desk habitually started her routine, but when she saw the person in front of her, she couldn't help but be shocked.

"You know me?" This was Shen Xi's first visit to the Su company building, so she hadn't expected anyone to recognize her.

"Of course! When you married out president, every major newspaper reported on it. Are you here to see the president?" The young girl politely asked.

"Yes." Shen Xi smiled. "What floor is he on?"

"The president's office is on the top floor; you can go straight up from there." The young woman at the front desk pointed towards the elevator.

"Alright, thank you." Shen Xi nodded then walked towards the elevator.

After Shen Xi left, the ladies operating the front desk couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, the president's wife is so beautiful and charming!"

"Quick, call the secretarial department!" Another young woman said.

By the time Shen Xi walked out of the elevator, Fang Yu was already at the door waiting for her.

"Madam." Fang Yu smiled.

Shen Xi was surprised, but soon figured that the front desk notified him of her arrival. Amused, she said: "Secretary Fang, I think we're familiar enough with each other to not need such formalities."

"That's not good. If the president knew that I was neglecting his wife, he would skin me alive." Fang Yu made a throat-slitting gesture.
  
"Pfft..." Shen Xi laughed. "Is he in the office?"

"The president is in a meeting on the twelfth floor, but it should be wrapping up in a minute. Please take a seat in the office first." Fang Yu led Shen Xi into the office as he spoke.

When she entered the office, Shen Xi looked at the furnishings and found that apart from the more spacious room, it didn't seem to be much different from Su Hang's study at home. Shen Xi glanced at his desk and found a picture frame. Curious, she couldn't help but walk over and turn the photo frame.

When she saw the two familiar silhouettes on the photo, Shen Xi had to smile.

"Madam, please have some coffee." Fang Yu came back into the office with a cup.

Shen Xi turned around and saw Fang Yu placing a cup of coffee on the coffee table next to the sofa. She went over, smelled the coffee, and said: "Oh, what wonderful coffee."

"That's good." Fang Yu replied.

"If you have such good coffee already, then why do you always order in the cat cafe?" Shen Xi asked.

"That..." Fang Yu paused, then frankly told her: "No matter how good the coffee, if the Boss doesn't like it, then.."

"He's...he only drinks the coffee in my store?" Shen Xi raised a brow.
