Let her go straight up?

After saying this, Xiao Yu hung up.

Stunned by the phone in her hand, Ye Yan Xi unhappily curled her lips.

It was almost time to get off work. Because today was the seventh day, his colleagues had been looking forward to getting off work since a long time ago. They held their phones in their hands as they called other people, all of them looking very happy.

It seemed that everyone had a date. It was obvious that they were all in a good mood. It couldn't be that it was Valentine's Day where they were supposed to meet and go shopping, so Ye Yanxue couldn't be more envious seeing them happily preparing for a date.

Thinking about her boyfriend and having her work overtime with him after work, she felt a bit unbalanced.

Overtime. Who asks to work overtime with someone they like on Valentine's Day? To be so unromantic, the only person who could be so old-fashioned was Xiao Yu.

After silently cursing for a while, it was time to get off work. All of her colleagues rushed towards the elevator, one by one. Only Ye Yan Xi was still sitting there motionlessly. She would wait for everyone to finish and then go up to the top floor to find Xiao Yu.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, A Su knocked on the middle partition. At first, Ye Yan didn't hear it, but A Su kept on knocking on it a few more times. Then, she turned around.

"What are you thinking about?" A'Su blinked. "Are you thinking about your boyfriend?"

"Of course not!" Ye Yan Xi quickly denied it. Panic instantly flashed across her face, and she somewhat avoided A Su's curious gaze. "I don't even have a boyfriend, how would I think of that?"

After she finished speaking, Ye Yanxi still felt weak in her heart.

He did not know how to respond to his decisive denial.

In any case, in the past when she had avoided her colleagues, Xiao Yu's expression hadn't been too good. If she had heard her words, then her face would have immediately darkened.

"Look at your expression. It's clearly an expression of guilt. Say it, who's your boyfriend?"

"I really don't have a boyfriend." Ye Yan Xi raised her head, gritting her teeth as she met Ah Su's scrutinizing gaze.

Ah Su boldly guessed, and frowned for a while, "Could it be that you are... A crush? "Since I haven't become a couple yet, how about I take advantage of today's happy day to confess something?"

Ye Yanxi was speechless after hearing this. She rolled her eyes and said, "Forget it, don't randomly guess. I don't have a boyfriend, and I don't have a crush on anyone."

"That's not possible. How about I introduce one or two to you. There are quite a few single dogs amongst my friends here. How about I call them and ask them out for a meal?" Today is Valentine's Day, the day of the lovers' show. You're all alone and you don't have a boyfriend. " Asu immediately wanted to introduce her to a boyfriend.

Ye Yan Xi looked at A Su's eyes that were glowing. She was at a loss for words.

If Xiao Yu heard this and wanted to introduce a boyfriend to her, who knew if he'd fire A'Su in anger?

"Su, I don't want to have a boyfriend right now." "And I haven't graduated yet. I'm still a student, so I have to focus on my studies. My dad specifically forbade me to talk about boyfriends before I graduate."

He had no choice but to bring out his father to fend him off.

A Su looked at Ye Yan Xi with a face full of shock, and couldn't help but sigh, "Your dad is actually so old-fashioned, what era is he in? Isn't it unfortunate that he doesn't fall in love at school, I told you that there are only a lot of good men in school now, and after you work, it's difficult for you to tell which are good men and which are bad?"

"Thank you, Su. I still want to focus on my studies. I don't want to think about other things." Ye Yan Xi said in a serious tone.

Ye Yanxi had probably insisted on it, with a serious expression on her face. It seemed that she had made up her mind, so Su didn't say anything more, only thinking that her mind had stopped at the last century.

"Since you've said so, I won't force you." A Su tidied up his desk, got up and left. "Even if you can't beat seventy, you should still go out for a stroll. It's very lively."

"No need." Ye Yan Xi stared at her figure, "I still have work to do, I have to work overtime."

"Sigh." A Su leaned on the work table and stared at Ye Yan Xi for a while before saying, "Then you should work overtime. I have an appointment with my boyfriend to go watch a movie."

As she spoke, Ah Su's phone rang. She looked down at the screen and her mouth opened in excitement.

When Su took the call, it was no longer the usual style of a woman. Instead, the style had suddenly changed to that of a charming lady, her eyes overflowing with joy.

After answering the phone, Ah Su waved her hand at Ye Yan Xi.

"Then I'll leave first. If you change your mind, let me know anytime." With that, he took his bag and left the office.

Ye Yanxi looked at her back and also smiled.

Women who were immersed in happiness had a flirtatious look that they had never had before.

However …

After Su had left, Ye Yanxi was the only person left in the office. She looked very empty and lonely. Her heart had also become empty. She had to work overtime.

After sitting down for a while, Ye Yan Xi simply packed up the documents on the table and walked out of the office. She then took the elevator to the top floor where the CEO's office was.

When the elevator reached the top floor, the moment it opened, Ye Yanxi saw that the secretary's room was also empty.

However, if Xiao Yu was in the office, the secretary or assistant would definitely leave one or two people behind to work overtime. How come there's no one left in the office right now?

At this moment, the afterglow of the evening sun shone through the large window. The room was covered in a faint yellow glow, and the golden light in the eyes made it seem even more beautiful yet desolate.

She calmed herself down and walked towards Xiao Yu's office. After thinking for a moment, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in." A familiar but low voice.

Ye Yan Xi had a sickly expression as she opened the door and walked in.

Inside Xiao Yu's office was a room full of afterglow. As he was enveloped by the setting sun, his figure blurred as he stared at the information in his hands. It seemed that he was quite busy.

"CEO, you asked me to stay at work, what do you want me to do?"

Within the company, Ye Yan Xi had always been very respectful towards Xiao Yu, completely due to the relationship between the boss and her employees. She was also afraid that someone would barge in and find out, so she had to be respectful in order to prevent others from suspecting her.

Xiao Yu raised his head and glanced at Ye Yanxue, then pointed in the direction of the sofa. "Sit here and wait for me. I'll tell you after I finish reading this information."

Since the CEO had already given the order, Ye Yan Xi could only obey. So, she obediently walked to the sofa and sat down.

The large office was very quiet, one could hear the sound of a pin drop. The two of them didn't say anything, and from time to time, one could hear the sound of Xiao Yu flipping through information's pages.

Xiao Yu's gaze was still fixated on the information, not even sparing a glance at Ye Yanxi, who was sitting on the sofa, completely bored out of her mind.

After waiting for half an hour, Xiao Yu still hadn't finished reading.

The sky gradually turned dark as night fell. The last rays of the setting sun also disappeared into the horizon. Ye Yanxi stared out the window in a daze as the bright lights lit up the night sky. All of this was so quiet that it was a bit lonely. At this moment, one or two fireworks exploded in a brilliant display in the dusky twilight. The atmosphere was faintly filled with the jubilant atmosphere of a holiday.

At this point, a lot of couples must be cuddling together, right?

She retracted her gaze and looked at Xiao Yu behind the desk. He was still maintaining his posture and seriously staring at the documents. Right now, there were only the two of them in the office.

He didn't have much hope at first, and at the moment, he wasn't disappointed. Being together like this was also good, so all the disappointment in his heart disappeared.

She quietly waited for Xiao Yu to settle his affairs.

After a while, Xiao Yu finally put away the documents, picked up the pen on the table, and seemingly signed them one by one.

She raised her head and looked at Ye Yan Xi who was sitting on the sofa. Her eyes were deep, as if she was a bit tired. She rubbed her forehead, but didn't move her eyes away from Ye Yan Xi.

Seeing him like this, Ye Yan Xi immediately stood up, "CEO, you asked me to work overtime, just what do I need to do?"

However, Xiao Yu was still quietly staring at her. He didn't say anything, causing her to feel a chill run down her spine.

He seemed a little strange today.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu stood up from his chair and walked over to Ye Yan Xi. His face was buried in the shadow of the light, but he still had that feeling of being born with it.

Ye Yanxin had originally thought that Xiao Yu was about to do something, but now, he suddenly raised her wrist.

It's already seven o'clock, time for dinner. Let's go out and eat nearby.

Eating?

As soon as Xiao Yu reminded her, Ye Yan Xi's stomach began to growl in a very honest manner.

She was also hungry, so she nodded.

"Fine."

The two of them entered the elevator and went straight to the underground parking lot.

Ye Yanxi also let out a sigh of relief. With their current relationship, if they brazenly walked out of the hall then others would definitely suspect something and they would probably go straight to the underground parking lot.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Xiao Yu walked in the direction of the car, following him. Ye Yan Xi was puzzled. Wasn't it nearby?

"Someone will recognize him." Xiao Yu seemed to know what she was thinking.

With this, Ye Yan Xi didn't hesitate to get on the car.
