Chapter 332: Chapter 332: There is Only One Truth! Gu Yizhou is a Scumbag?

Yan Luoxi lifted her phone and glanced at it.

Oh no!

It was time.

’I have to go!’

Seeing the flash of panic on Yan Luoxi’s face, Gu Yizhou paused.

"Is something wrong?" he asked.

"Um... I have an important meeting. I have to leave now," Yan Luoxi said, turning toward Gu Yizhou.

This was just a random excuse.

The main thing was, she really had to go.

Otherwise, if she turned into a cat right in front of this jerk, it would all be over.

"Uh..."

Gu Yizhou didn’t suspect a thing.

He said, "If you have something urgent, you should go take care of it."

"I can handle things here!"

"I’ll email it to you when I’m done," Gu Yizhou said.

"Okay!"

"Thank you, I appreciate it."

Yan Luoxi nodded.

Then, without time to say anything more to Gu Yizhou, she grabbed her coat, bag, and phone, and hurried out the door.

Watching Yan Luoxi’s flustered, retreating figure, Gu Yizhou shook his head helplessly.

He then looked away and got back to work.

...

「6:30 PM.」

It was already half an hour past quitting time.

Only then did Gu Yizhou stop what he was doing.

He let out a long breath and stretched.

’I have to say, Yan Luoxi’s executive chair is way more comfortable than that crappy one at my desk.’

’This woman sure knows how to enjoy the finer things!’

Gu Yizhou shook his head, muttering to himself.

CLICK~

Just then, the door to the president’s office opened.

Vice President Roy walked in.

Hearing the sound, Gu Yizhou looked up toward the door.

Their eyes met.

Roy froze for a second.

She subconsciously glanced around. ’I’m not in the wrong office!’

"Hello, President Luo."

Gu Yizhou stood up from Yan Luoxi’s executive chair and greeted Roy.

"Uh... hello."

"Your name is... Gu..."

For a moment, Roy couldn’t remember Gu Yizhou’s name.

"Gu Yizhou," Gu Yizhou supplied.

"Oh, right!"

"Gu Yizhou, what are you doing here?"

"Where is President Yan?" Roy asked.

"President Yan asked me to come here to handle a project."

"She had to leave early for something and told me to finish up the project here by myself," Gu Yizhou answered.

"Oh, okay."

Roy nodded upon hearing this.

However!

At the same time, she was extremely confused.

’Knowing Yan Luoxi, why would she let a man work alone in her office?’

’And even let him sit in her chair?’

’And on top of that, she left first and let him stay behind in her office!’

’This doesn’t add up!’

’It doesn’t fit Yan Luoxi’s character at all!’

’Could this Gu Yizhou guy be lying?’

’No, that can’t be right.’

’He could never have gotten into the executive office on this floor without Yan Luoxi’s permission.’...

So! ℯℯ𝑙.

There was only one possibility!

He was telling the truth!

Yan Luoxi allowed him to do all this.

This...

For a moment, Roy simply couldn’t wrap her head around it!

Seeing Roy’s brow furrow and relax as she seemed to be deep in thought, Gu Yizhou didn’t interrupt.

Suddenly!

Roy thought of something!

Her head snapped up to look at Gu Yizhou.

She felt like she was on the verge of figuring it out!

"Er..."

Gu Yizhou felt his skin crawl as Roy stared at him, looking him up and down.

He couldn’t help but ask, "President Luo, what’s wrong? Is something the matter?"

"So, you’re Gu Yizhou, right?"

"Are you close with President Yan?" Roy suddenly asked.

"Huh?"

Gu Yizhou was startled.

Seeing the playful glint in Roy’s eyes, he had a good idea of what she was thinking.

So he said, "Um... I suppose so. But I’m just grateful President Yan thinks highly enough of me to give me this opportunity."

"Ohh~"

Roy nodded, the smile on her lips growing wider.

’Just as I thought!’

Suddenly!

She then remembered that the first time rumors about Yan Luoxi had started spreading around the company, they were about this same employee, Gu Yizhou.

So!

’The jerk I’ve been trying to figure out has been right under my nose this whole time!’

Roy was now 70% certain that this Gu Yizhou was the man Yan Luoxi liked.

’In other words, the one who’s been feeding Yan Luoxi those analyses and helping her make all that money... is also this guy?’

’But... if I remember correctly, isn’t he just a junior employee in the finance department?’

’How would he get access to that kind of inside information?’

’No, wait.’

’A man who could make Yan Luoxi treat him so differently, even making her break her own rules, couldn’t possibly be that simple!’

’This Gu Yizhou is definitely more than he seems!’

’Besides, he’s definitely handsome. Easy on the eyes.’

’No wonder Yan Luoxi made an exception for him!’

"Um, President Luo, is there something you need?"

Seeing that Roy was just staring at him and smiling without saying a word, Gu Yizhou couldn’t help but ask.

"Ah, it’s nothing."

"I just came to check on the project’s progress."

"Since President Yan asked you to handle it, you should carry on."

"I won’t disturb you. Thanks for your hard work."

Roy snapped out of it, waved at Gu Yizhou, and then turned and left.

Watching Roy’s graceful, swaying figure, Gu Yizhou rubbed his nose.

’That woman... she must have figured something out, right?’

’Oh well.’

’If she knows, she knows.’

’Still, I should probably give Yan Luoxi a heads-up.’

’At least so she’s prepared.’

With that thought, he picked up his phone, tapped on Yan Luoxi’s WeChat profile, and sent her a message: "I’ve finished the risk assessment metrics and the final analysis report. I’ll email them to you in a bit. Also... Vice President Luo just came by, and she seems to have guessed about us. Just wanted to let you know."

After he sent the message,

Gu Yizhou saw that Yan Luoxi hadn’t replied, but didn’t think much of it.

He just figured she was busy and couldn’t check her phone.

Tossing his phone aside, Gu Yizhou organized the analysis files on the computer and emailed them to Yan Luoxi.

He also saved a backup copy on her computer’s desktop.

After finishing all this,

He picked up his phone and glanced at it again; there was still no message from Yan Luoxi.

Shaking his head,

Gu Yizhou tidied up the desk, then shut down the computer, preparing to leave.

’So much for not working overtime today.’

’Didn’t expect to eat my words so soon.’

But!

Thinking about how he was helping his girlfriend, his future wife, made him feel a little better.

’Oh well.’

’I’ll just think of it as working overtime for myself.’

After packing up his laptop and turning off the lights in the president’s office, Gu Yizhou slung his bag over his shoulder and left...
