ion to the buttons for the elevator floor. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a "ding" sound as the elevator reached its destination.Helplessly, he could only change the subject. "Forget..."Xiaoyao, how much longer will these documents take It's already 12 o'clock. Let's go downstairs for dinner first"

"No way." Fu Xiaoyao raised her head, rubbing her sore shoulder, and looked over the pile of files on the desk at Yu Lin. "Linlin, I still have so many files to check. If I can't finish them, I'll definitely have to work late tonight, and I don't know when I'll be able to leave."

Someone is working overtime here until the early morning, and it's estimated that there are no returning cars, and they might have to sleep in the company.

"How can you have so many files to go through" Yu Lin frowned. "Do you have to finish all of these today My god! Who could possibly finish this, President Lu is so heartless!"

“I can’t do anything about it either……” she sighed, lying down. “I told you long ago, President Lu is a difficult person to get along with. He's very strict and doesn't tolerate any flaws. In his eyes, handling the work at hand well is an employee's responsibility, no matter how tired they are.”

She said this in a low voice, afraid that someone from the CEO's office might overhear her.

"Really!" Yu Lin's eyes widened in shock, "Fortunately, I wasn't chosen back then. If I had been the secretary, I definitely would have died from exhaustion!"

After finishing her words, she cautiously glanced at the CEO's office and whispered, "Xiaoyao, you've only been a secretary for a few days, how come you sound like you know President Lu so well"

"This is—"

Fu Xiaoyao was at a loss for words, just about to find an excuse to gloss over this matter, when there was a commotion outside the door.

She immediately looked over, and saw Shao Sini coming out of the CEO's office. He was holding his phone as if he were about to call someone, but his interested gaze fell on her, and she wondered if he had heard something.

Yu Lin saw the situation and hurried away, lest she cause trouble.

Shao Sian looked at her with some confusion and walked into Fu Xiaoyao's office, "Sister-in-law, am I that scary Why did your friend leave when they saw me"

"No way, you must have gotten it wrong!" She had just been bad-mouthing Lu Hanzhen, and her heart felt a little guilty. She subconsciously tried to explain, "Maybe it's because Young Master Shao is too handsome, my friend was shy so she ran away."

"Is that so" Shao Si Nian's smile deepened.

He came from a wealthy family and had heard many flattering words over the years, but no one was as straightforward as Fu Xiaoyao. It really caught him off guard.

Fu Xiaoyao saw his expression was off, and she suddenly realized she had said the wrong thing. She panicked immediately, "No, no, I was just talking nonsense, Young Master Shao, please don't take it to heart."

Having been tormented by this pile of documents on her desk all morning and having secretly gossiped a few bad things about Lu Hanchuan to her friend, she was truly afraid that Shao Sian would hear her so she quickly found an excuse to brush it off.

The more I talk, the more wrong I get!

She and Shao Sian had only met a few times, practically strangers. What she said was too abrupt!

"It's fine, I know you're just joking with me." Shao Si Nian smiled. "Sister-in-law, you don't need to be so polite to me. I've known Han Chuan for so long, and since you are his wife, you're my sister-in-law."

"Yes, is that so..."

She let out a breath, but her eyes dimmed slightly, “I don’t know how much longer this sister-in-law can hold on…”

"Sister-in-law, what are you saying"

"No, I didn't say anything." Fu Xiaoyao shook her head to conceal it.

Her appearance caught Shao Sinian's eye, deepening the smile on his lips as he glanced towards the CEO's office.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I heard today that your company arranged a welcome party for Hanchuan. Will you be going there too"

"Welcome party" Fu Xiaoyao blinked, there was indeed such a thing.

Lu Hanchuan has already taken over the company, so the original executives naturally arranged a banquet to welcome him.

This matter had already spread throughout the company. It is said that Lu Hanchuan also invited some of his friends over, as a way to network and attract people for the company's development.

"I'll have to see about that."

She had a headache as she stared at the files on her desk. She wouldn't dare attend the party if she didn't finish her work.

Shao Sini seemed to understand her predicament and left without asking further questions. was about to skip over the topic, he suddenly spoke up, "My ex-wife!""Ex-wife" Fu Xiaoyao was surprised. "Just now your assistant mistook me for what kind of wife, so his meaning is, that I am your e...
