Qiao Yuan Fei clutched the small floral shawl in her arms, preferring to die of cold rather than wear it.
Fan Yu did not force her, and thoughtfully turned on the car’s heating.
The two arrived at the Fan Group in silence, but in harmony.
The new product launch was held in the conference hall on the ground floor.
Qiao Yuanfei originally thought that Fan Yu would take her directly through the internal channel to watch the launch event, but he ended up taking her into his office without saying a word.
“Aren’t we going down for the launch?”
Qiao Yuanfei asked curiously.
Fan Yu took off his suit jacket and hung it casually on the sofa, raising his eyes to look at her.
“There’s no rush, are you thirsty and would you like something to drink?”
“……”
Qiao Yuan Fei looked at him a little blankly.
As far as she knew, Fan’s Group’s new product launch was about to start, so if they didn’t go in while they could, would they be too conspicuous later?
Qiao Yuanfei’s concern had just bubbled up, and then she thought that every group had secret internal passages.
Maybe Fan Yu could arrange a staff channel for her later, so that she could enter in a low profile.
In that case, she could indeed avoid going down so early and barely being identified by reporters, causing unnecessary trouble.
“Just a cup of hot water for me, please.”
Van Yu nodded and reached out to press the intercom, asking her secretary to bring in two glasses of water.
Qiao Yuan Fei sat on the meeting sofa and looked at Fan Yu who was at his desk, calmly handling documents.
She wanted to speak a few times, but held back.
She could only keep looking up at the time.
Secretly muttering in her heart, the Fan Group’s new product launch was about to start, did they really not need to enter the venue early?
“Suddenly you find me good-looking today and keep staring at me non-stop?” The moment Fan Yu finished signing the document and closed it, he teasingly opened his lips.
The meaningful gaze swept over Qiao Yuan Fei’s somewhat unresponsive face.
Her expression was somewhat dull, with a few moments of naive.
Hearing his words, she didn’t rush to retort, but licked her lips.
It was as if she was acquiescing to his statement.
This reaction of hers greatly pleased Van Yu.
A ghostly light swept across the bottom of his eyes, full of anticipation for what was about to happen next.
He put the signed papers away and got up from his office chair.
“It’s about time, let’s go.”
“Where’s …… going? The launch party?” Qiao Yuan Fei, still struggling with how to answer his question, asked subconsciously and rhetorically.
Asking the question out loud, she realised she had made a mistake.
It was rare that Fan Yu didn’t laugh at her today, and even answered kindly: “Well, take you to see the new product launch of the Fan Group.”
He said, and calmly raised his arm, allowing Qiao Yuanfei to take his arm.
“No need to be so formal, right? Didn’t we quietly sneak in through the staff passageway to see it?”
Qiao Yuanfei stared at his arm, moving with some hesitation.
The corners of Fan Yu’s mouth curved, holding a smirking arc.
“What’s wrong with the staff aisle? Taking the staff aisle also adds a bit of ritual, it’s called life.”
“……”
Although Qiao Yuan Fei didn’t quite understand how this had anything to do with rituals, she still took his arm after hearing him speak in a very reasonable manner.
The two of them went out of the president’s office together.
When they got off the lift, Qiao Yuanfei looked at the lift with the words “President’s Exclusive Elevator” on it and felt something was wrong in her heart.
Without waiting for her to look back, the lift had already arrived.
Fan Yu took her with him and paced towards the launch hall.
