Su Le was the type of person who are very magnanimous on most occasions, but there would also be occasions where she would be very narrow-minded. Just like her current situation, for example, where all her accessories like her watch, shoes, and even her bracelet was being criticised by someone else based on the brand and monetary value, it's no wonder that the smile on Su Le's face was gradually getting fainter.

"Young girls, like you, these days are all the same, you like buying random cheap things. But things like class can't be reflected by using those cheap things," the woman flaunted. She would have been much more easier to deal with if she were just bragging about herself.

Su Le lowered her eyes while holding a teacup in her hands. Thinking to herself, she wondered if she should just leave and take a stroll first because if she knew beforehand that she would meet such a person, she would have never stayed in the same room as her even if she was beaten to death. By associating with such a woman, Su Le's temperament and tolerance were being tested, even her acting skills as well. Ah, it was getting more and more difficult for Su Le to maintain the smile on her face.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open by Wei Chu who was dressed in formal work clothes. The woman who was babbling away immediately went silent when Wei Chu's sight fell on her. Then with a smile, Wei Chu walked towards Su Le and spoke once he was standing next to her, "Su Le, why are you sitting here?" He, then, turned towards Chen Xu and said, "Chen Xu, go and lead Su Le to my office to rest. She should be tired after speaking so much." Wei Chu gently patted on Su Le's shoulder, displaying to others as if they were really close.

The woman, whose mouth went non-stop just then, had a change of expression as her heart shivered. The girl in front of her, she wouldn't happen to be this CEO's girlfriend, right?

Su Le sighed in relief when she heard Wei Chu's words. She stood up and nodded towards Wei Chu, "Then I'll go to your office first and, oh right, could you help me contact the planning manager later?"

"Alright, no problem," Wei Chu nodded, "Then go and take a break first. I didn't know you had so much to say to strangers. How come I don't see you treating me this friendly."

Wei Chu's words were sharp because from the very beginning, Su Le did not say much at all. So who Wei Chu really was pointing at was the woman who constantly bragged and criticised. Su Le took a quick glance at the woman and, as expected, the woman's expression had turned ugly. Su Le smiled. At least the woman knew Wei Chu was actually ridiculing her, otherwise, she really could not be saved.

Since Su Le was aware that Wei Chu had some business to talk about with the other two people, she didn't insist on staying and turned to leave. Chen Xu, who followed her out, was apologetic, "Su Le, I'm really sorry, she was ..."


"It's alright, it wasn't like she was your family member," laughed Su Le. When they entered the CEO's office, Su Le went to sit down on the sofa while Chen Xu passed her a laptop. He soon left the room to go and get her another cup of tea and Su Le was now alone in the office.

Su Le switched on the laptop and discovered it didn't require a password to log in. She directly accessed the laptop. On the desktop, there were a picture of a man-made lake. In the middle of the lake, there were a little isle with some wutong trees planted and there was a stone bridge next to them that crossed over to the bank of the lake.

On the picture, there were some words written in calligraphy, '何日凤栖梧'. It gave off some ancient feeling. Su Le was very familiar with the scenery in the picture because there was also a man-made lake next to the 9th building in her university. There were also some trees planted by it. That location was a very popular spot for couples to take a stroll around it at night.
