Rejected by the Campus Belle, I Find My True Love-Chapter 372 - 370: The First Close Observation of Xue Yang at Work

Chapter 372: Chapter 370: The First Close Observation of Xue Yang at Work

Entering the office area, Lin Xi became as demure as if a spell had been cast on her.

Just as Yu Kexin was stretching, she caught a glimpse of two figures passing by. "Huh? Am I seeing things? I think I just saw Boss Xue lead a woman into the studio."

On the 33rd floor, besides Xue Yang, Yu Kexin, and Cui Hao, there were a few other core staff members, but the total number never exceeded ten.

So, compared to other office areas, it was relatively quiet here, day or night.

Right now, Xue Yang was still working overtime, and so were Yu Kexin and Cui Hao.

Wait a second... a woman? Could it be... the boss’s wife? Is she here for an inspection?

Realizing this, Yu Kexin couldn’t sit still anymore. She stood up, then sat back down again.

Wouldn’t it be weird if I just went out like this? It’s so late, after all... No, what am I thinking? I’m working overtime. The boss’s wife should be happy to see that. Then again, Boss Xue once said that his wife is shy. If I go out there and startle her, he’ll definitely tear me apart.

Everyone in the studio knew how protective Xue Yang was of his wife.

Yu Kexin shuddered at the thought.

I’d better just lie low at my desk.

Xue Yang’s wrath was no small matter.

Just as this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly felt two gazes on her. Yu Kexin looked up and saw Xue Yang walking toward her with an exceptionally beautiful woman.

Yu Kexin immediately became fidgety.

"This is Yu Kexin, one of the founding members of the studio," Xue Yang said. "Without her, our studio would’ve had a hard time getting established."

Yu Kexin was both shocked and delighted that Boss Xue had introduced her to his wife as soon as he arrived.

She had seen Lin Xi in photos and had spotted them shopping at the supermarket, but those were just fleeting glances from a distance. Seeing her up close now, she looked almost otherworldly.

"Uh... Hi, Boss... Boss Xue... boss’s wife."

The woman known for her fiery temper in the studio was now stuttering.

She had truly never seen such a beautiful girl before.

She was even prettier than the Barbie dolls she played with as a child.

Hearing herself called "boss’s wife," Lin Xi’s eyes sparkled. Approaching Yu Kexin, she extended a friendly hand. "Hello, my name is Lin Xi."

Staring at the luminous, fair hand before her, Yu Kexin swallowed hard and glanced hesitantly at Xue Yang. "Boss Xue... can I shake hands with the boss’s wife?"

"Mm."

Yu Kexin excitedly wiped her hands on her pants, then carefully took Lin Xi’s. Wow! Her hand is so smooth, so delicate, and so soft!

She was reluctant to let go.

As a woman herself, she even felt a pang of jealousy toward Xue Yang.

"Hey! Boss Xue, you’re playing favorites! How come she gets to shake the boss’s wife’s hand and I can’t?" Cui Hao, having heard the commotion, came out and immediately started protesting when he saw the scene.

"Cui Hao, stop your whining and mind your own business," Yu Kexin snapped. No one is going to ruin my chance to shake hands with the boss’s wife.

"Boss, that’s not fair!"

Xue Yang replied nonchalantly, "You can shake her hand too if you take a trip abroad and come back."

So, does that mean unless I get a sex change, I’ll never get to shake the boss’s wife’s hand in this lifetime? That’s just cruel.

Xue Yang led Lin Xi toward his office. "It’s getting late. They’re the only two still here; everyone else has gone home. I’ll introduce you to the others another day."

"Alright."

As Xue Yang and Lin Xi went into the office, Yu Kexin was still too stunned to react.

Cui Hao gave her a nudge. "Earth to Kexin. They’re gone."

"Why’d you push me? Get lost!" Yu Kexin yelled. Cradling her hand as if it were a precious treasure, she returned to her seat.

Cui Hao rolled his eyes, went back to his desk, and continued working overtime.

I’ll finish this contract and take it to my senior for her signature tomorrow. It’s better if she doesn’t have to come to the office, anyway.

Inside Xue Yang’s office, Lin Xi took out all the takeout containers. There were four dishes and a soup, an extraordinarily lavish meal.

The dishes were all rare, private-kitchen-style cuisine.

Normally, one would have to book at least a year in advance to get a reservation.

"Is it good?"

"It’s delicious."

Seeing Xue Yang eat with such relish made Lin Xi incredibly happy.

"Si Wen had all this made and sent over."

"I figured."

Xue Yang mused that he could do the same in the future. After all, it’s not like I’m free every day either.

While Xue Yang was eating, Lin Xi carefully observed his office. Although simple, it was filled with his presence and decorated in his usual style.

But it felt like something was missing.

Lin Xi scanned the room again. Aha, now I know what it’s missing.

After finishing his meal, Xue Yang quickly tidied up the food containers. He told Lin Xi that she could walk around the office if she got bored. If she got tired, she could sit on the sofa and play games. He just needed to finish his work, and then they could go home.

Lin Xi nodded obediently and watched Xue Yang work for a while.

It was her first time watching Xue Yang work from this close.

He sometimes worked at home, but that had a more comfortable, domestic feel. Here in the office, he exuded a completely different, commanding aura.

He was even more charismatic while working in his office.

Of course, Xue Yang was well aware that his little Xiao Naimao was watching him, but it was getting late. He needed to finish his work quickly so he could take her home.

After watching for a while, Lin Xi decided not to disturb him and left the office to look around.

The 33rd floor was spacious. The general work area was relatively small, and like Xue Yang’s office, its design was very simple and minimalist.

Lin Xi wandered around and came to a pantry area.

Yu Kexin was staring at a large water jug, looking troubled.

"Kexin, what are you doing?"

Startled by the voice, Yu Kexin turned around. Seeing it was Lin Xi, her eyes once again filled with awe. "Oh, boss’s wife, the water dispenser is empty. I’m trying to figure out how to get this jug on top of it."

With a look of pure curiosity on her face, Lin Xi moved closer.

"So this thing is called a water dispenser."

Huh? The boss’s wife doesn’t even recognize a water jug?

"Yes, that’s where we get our drinking water," Yu Kexin explained. "The jug on it is empty, so we have to replace it, but I’m not strong enough. Boss’s wife, are you thirsty too? I’ll go get Cui Hao to put the new one on. Please wait here for a moment."

As Yu Kexin said this, she prepared to go find Cui Hao.

Lin Xi placed a hand on the water jug and pointed at the dispenser.

"You just have to put it up there?"

Lin Xi had never seen a water dispenser before and found it fascinating.

"Yes, but it’s very heavy. I can’t lift it."

"Let me try," Lin Xi said, preparing to lift it.

"Boss’s wife, no, don’t! I’ll go get someone. It’ll be quick."

Yu Kexin wouldn’t dare let Lin Xi do it. If she got hurt, Boss Xue would tear her apart.
