Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Domineering Female CEO! You Jerk, I Didn’t Scare You Just Now, Did I?

Conference Room 305.

"President Yan?"

When Yan Luoxi pushed open the conference room door with a thunderous expression, everyone looked up in surprise.

Gu Yizhou saw Yan Luoxi as well.

Their eyes met.

Gu Yizhou raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.

Yan Luoxi’s expression faltered for a moment.

’This scoundrel looks so good when he smiles like that!’

’No!’

’This is not the time to get lost in this scoundrel’s good looks.’

She quickly composed herself, turning to Chairman Li Ming. Her voice was cold as she said, "Chairman Li, what is the meaning of this? I need a reasonable explanation!"

"Ah?"

Li Ming scrambled to his feet. He looked at Yan Luoxi and said, "President Yan, please don’t misunderstand. We just had the analysis team come over to report on their work."

Yan Luoxi knew what Li Ming was thinking without even having to look.

"Heh."

Yan Luoxi sneered, her face devoid of expression. "Is that so? Wasn’t it you who had a problem with my decision this morning, so you called them here to express your dissatisfaction?"

Li Ming: "..."

"No!"

"I had no such intention!"

"President Yan, you absolutely mustn’t misunderstand!"

"I am completely loyal to you and to the company!"

Seeing Yan Luoxi’s anger, Li Ming hurriedly pledged his loyalty. "They came to analyze the Huachuang Group project, not the Button Wine Company. President Yan, if you don’t believe me, you can ask them."

He really didn’t dare take the blame for this!

Besides, he wasn’t really the one who initiated this.

While he was indeed a little unhappy with Yan Luoxi’s authoritarian decision that morning, he wouldn’t dare confront her!

After he finished speaking, Yan Luoxi’s icy gaze swept across everyone present.

Finally, her eyes landed on her best friend, Roy.

This was also the first time Roy had seen Yan Luoxi so furious, but she knew she had to step forward now.

"President Yan, Chairman Li is telling the truth."

"The project we were just discussing was indeed about Huachuang Group."

Roy said, standing up.

Seeing this, the peacemaker Yu Man also quickly stood up and said, "President Yan, Chairman Li didn’t go against your wishes. You said not to invest in the Button Wine Company, so we haven’t considered it since. You can rest assured about that. In this company, we all listen to you. Please, calm down first. Don’t let your anger affect your health."

"Yes, yes!"

"President Yan, we are completely loyal to you. We’ve never had any objections to your decisions."

"Please calm down. What would we do if you made yourself sick with anger?"

...

The other board members present also hurriedly began pledging their loyalty.

They had no choice!

Yan Luoxi was furious. If this wasn’t handled well and they were kicked out of the company, they’d be in big trouble!

And make no mistake.

Yan Luoxi truly had the power to do it.

If not for the fact that they were company veterans who, even if they had no great merits, had at least put in years of hard work, Yan Luoxi could have kicked them out in minutes with her methods.

Hearing their words, Yan Luoxi’s anger finally subsided a little.

She looked at them expressionlessly and said, "The analysis team reports directly to the President’s Office. Who gave you the authority to mobilize them to do work for you?"

"The entire Group Finance Department is so large. Is there no one else?"

"Uh..."

At Yan Luoxi’s words, the board members on site looked at each other, none daring to speak.

The entire conference room fell silent.

Yan Luoxi couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on them. She turned to her young assistant, Bai Jie, who was right behind her, and said, "Assistant Bai."

"Yes, President Yan?"

her young assistant, Bai Jie, quickly replied.

"The analysis team belongs exclusively to the President’s Office. From now on, no one is to mobilize them without my express permission!"

Yan Luoxi stated, her face expressionless.

"Understood, President Yan."

Bai Jie nodded respectfully.

"Meeting adjourned."

Yan Luoxi said flatly.

With that, she turned and left the conference room without a backward glance.

...

After Yan Luoxi left, everyone in the conference room could only stare at each other.

"It’s been a long time since President Yan got that angry!"

"That was terrifying!"

...

They were all still shaken, clearly intimidated by Yan Luoxi’s earlier display of power.

Yes!

Don’t be fooled by how Yan Luoxi often blushed in front of Gu Yizhou.

Her position within the group was truly unshakeable.

After all!

It was impossible for Yan Luoxi to have grown Tidal Group from a ten-billion-dollar corporation to a hundred-billion-dollar one in just a few short years without some serious skills!

"We all know President Yan’s temperament. Let’s all be more careful in the future."

Seeing that everyone was still discussing it, Director Yu Man stepped up to smooth things over. "Alright, that’s enough. Everyone, let’s disperse!"

Hearing this, the crowd began to file out of the conference room.

Gu Yizhou was the last to leave, as he had to pack up his laptop.

By the time he came out of the conference room with his laptop in his arms, everyone else was gone.

He was just about to take the elevator back to the Finance Department when he saw Yan Luoxi standing by the elevator doors.

"Hm?"

Gu Yizhou paused, taken aback.

"President Yan, you haven’t left yet?" he asked casually.

The two of them had become more and more familiar with each other, so Gu Yizhou spoke to her much more casually now.

"Yeah."

Yan Luoxi nodded, looking like she wanted to say something but was hesitating.

"Uh..."

Seeing her like this, Gu Yizhou ventured, "Are you... waiting for me specifically?"

"Yes."

This time, Yan Luoxi admitted it quite openly.

"Is there something you need?" Gu Yizhou asked, looking at her with some confusion.

Yan Luoxi bit her lip lightly, hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, "Just now... I... I didn’t scare you, did I?"

After speaking, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Yizhou.

"Ah."

Gu Yizhou was taken aback once again.

He looked at Yan Luoxi, her head lowered and her face slightly flushed, and he seemed to understand something.

He smiled faintly and said, "No."

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi’s eyes lit up slightly.

She looked up at Gu Yizhou and said, "Really?"

But as soon as she said it, she realized she was being too intense.

Her face couldn’t help but flush red again.

"Mm... You were quite imposing just now, President Yan. Very much the ’ice queen CEO.’ It was good," Gu Yizhou said with a smile.

At his words, the blush on Yan Luoxi’s face became even more pronounced.

Where was the domineering female CEO from just moments ago?

Gu Yizhou looked at Yan Luoxi and thought to himself, ’She’s actually kind of cute like this.’

At this moment, he was completely certain that Yan Luoxi liked him.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t care so much about his opinion.

And as Yan Luoxi saw Gu Yizhou’s eyes fixed on her, her face grew even redder.

Her heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Thankfully, it was just the two of them by the elevators.

If that group of board members from before were to see Yan Luoxi now, their jaws would probably drop to the floor!
