Chapter 208 Upside down
When the door opened, everyone inside the room, except Luo Xiaolei, straightened their backs. The lady boss who was still in the middle of speaking paused the moment her sharp eyes saw that the door was opened.
Her gaze turned piercing and everyone inside knew that this was bad news because once the lady boss was interrupted while in the middle of a meeting like this, they were sure that she would only drag the meeting out even longer.
They had experienced this numerous times so they didn’t dare interrupt her. They even limited all unnecessary movements just to avoid making any noise. That was why the longer the meeting went on, the quieter and more still everyone became. They had to behave and stay still as much as they could if they wanted the meeting to end early. Unfortunately for them, one of the secretaries messed up two hours ago when the meeting was about to end. That was why they were now in this really excruciating situation.
But then, another disaster had come. My goodness, no!!! We want to go home now!! Who the hell was the idiot who dared to enter the room at this point?
Everyone almost felt like crying. And what was Mr. doll-like bodyguard doing?!
Since Yu Chen fell into a coma, Juu had been stuck like a glue to Xiaolei. He was almost her literal shadow. The directors were actually thankful that Juu was always with them inside the meeting room because he was the one guarding the door. If he noticed that his boss was in this mood, he usually never let anyone open the door. Actually, he only opened it if the one coming was the Chairman. Did the chairman come back? At this hour?
They all knew that it wasn’t him. The chairman would never come without telling the boss beforehand. If the boss knew that it was him, she definitely wouldn’t make such a scary expression. Moreover, the chairman just left two hours ago and he seemed still sickly, so there was no way it was him. Then why? Why did Mr. Doll-like bodyguard let it open?!
Luo Xiaolei heaved a deep sigh. She quietly dropped her head as she landed her palm on the table, supporting her weight. Her deep concentration was finally broken and she now suddenly looked exhausted.
But her wild and authoritative aura didn’t subside. It was clear that she wasn’t pleased with this interruption. It frustrated her.
Since she became this company’s CEO, Luo Xiaolei found some of her attitude when she was a vengeful woman in her previous life, subconsciously re-appearing. She didn’t try shrugging it away because she knew that if she wasn’t tough, dominant and cold, people would never take her seriously. She always knew that in order for her to survive being in this kind of position, she had to harden her heart again.
Finally, she raised her face to look at the person who dared to interrupt her. Despite having such an undeniably striking beautiful pair of eyes, Luo Xiaolei’s gaze was sharp and deadly, like a little angry tigress.
\"Juu... who told you to...\"
Suddenly, Luo Xiaolei paused. The little angry tigress now looked like she just saw a ghost as she stood there, frozen.
Everyone looked confused because of the sudden change in their boss’ expression. When they all turned towards the door, they saw a white creature standing there. Invisible question marks started to fall from above, hitting the directors’ heads as their gazes darted back and forth between the white creature and their horror-struck boss. They definitely didn’t understand why their boss was reacting like this.
At that moment, one of them stood noisily. It was Gu Jinyang. The man reacted the same as their boss. His eyes were wide in disbelief. It took him a while to speak.
\"Meeting adjourned.\" He suddenly declared and the directors didn’t know what to do. Huh? What?
They all looked at the woman sitting on the main chair but she was still frozen.
\"Did you hear what I said? I’ll take responsibility for this so please leave the room now.\" Gu Jinyang repeated firmly and everyone looked at each other before they finally moved and left the room in great confusion.
Once the directors were gone, Gu Jinyang hastily turned the lights on.
He was about to rush towards the white panda when he saw Gu Wei by door desperately waving at him to leave the room as well. He saw that Juu had already been pulled out so he could only dash towards the door as well.
Finally, the two were left alone inside the spacious conference room.
Luo Xiaolei still didn’t make a single move. Her eyes were glued to the white panda standing across her.
The white panda raised his hand and slowly pulled down his hood. His face was as gorgeous as usual but visibly paler. He was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He looked extremely fresh, bright and adorably fluffy. He definitely looked like the cutest thing on earth at that moment.
His eyes were glimmering so beautifully and emotionally as he stared at the woman still standing there like a beautiful statue. Her long hair was pulled neatly back and she was wearing a neat white shirt underneath her black suit. She looked very businesslike and at the same time elegantly beautiful.
Their outfits, their aura, and basically everything else were almost completely opposites of each other’s. She looked tough and strong while he looked weak and fluffy. His aura was soft and bright but hers were tensed and heavy. It was as if the world had been turned upside down.
The white panda was the first to move. He walked slowly towards her.
Luo Xiaolei was finally pulled back to reality after a long time. Her heart was beating way too loud. As she watched him stepping closer to her, emotions immediately started to fill her entire being. Her eyes were getting hot, she felt like she was about to explode. She didn’t even know what to think at the moment. She didn’t want to even blink for fear that he might disappear once she did. She couldn’t even push herself to jump on him and take a hold of him because she was scared that once she touched him, she might find that it was all just an illusion.
Once he finally reached her, the adorable panda then stretched out his arms wide.
\"Xiaolei... I’m finally back. I’m so sorry for making you wait.\" He said and tears began falling like waterfalls from Xiaolei’s eyes.
