Chapter 72 - You can buy anything that you like! (1)

Lu Lixing's return to work was very sudden. Other than a few senior shareholders, very few people knew that he was going to come to the office today.

After all, he had been seriously injured in a car accident a month ago. It was rumored that as he was being taken to the ambulance, the stretcher was stained red with his blood.

All sorts of rumors were flying around in the company. For example, there was a rumor that CEO Lu was already dead, but his death was being kept a secret to avoid upheaval in the company. There was also a rumor that CEO Lu had become a cripple because of the car accident and would be spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

Rumors like these were repeated with conviction as if the speakers had personally witnessed what they said.

When Lu Lixing arrived at the company, it was the morning rush. In twos and threes, employees were currently rushing to swipe their ID cards and enter through the company's main entrance.

When the Bentley stopped in front of the company's main entrance, not many people noticed. But when Lu Lixing got out of the car, the flow of people entering the company visibly slowed down. In unison, the employees looked at Lu Lixing in surprise or fright. They looked at him as if they were seeing a ghost.

"C-CEO...CEO Lu?!"

"CEO Lu? What? Don't joke. Isn't CEO Lu dead?"

"Don't say nonsense. CEO Lu is merely paralyzed."

"Guys, look! It really is CEO Lu! "

"No way.. Hello, CEO Lu!"

"Good morning, CEO Lu!"

......

Lu Lixing was calm. He ignored all of the speculating and shocked gazes surrounding him. His dark eyes were as sharp as arrows, and he looked straight ahead. He nodded at the employees that had cleared to the side and called out greetings to him.

Qin Shao was waiting for him at the front desk. As soon as he saw Lu Lixing, he walked forward to meet him. "CEO Lu, I left the documents that you had me prepare on your desk. In addition, I've also notified the various department heads that you'll be holding a meeting today. The meeting will be held at 10 AM.”

Qin Shao had been trained for his position by Elder Lu since he was young and was highly regarded by the old man. Not only did he carry out work for Elder Lu, he also did things for Lu Lixing. His work quality left them feeling reassured.

Lu Lixing nodded.

When the elevator came down, the employees moved out of the way. Qin Shao waited until Lu Lixing had stepped into the elevator, then he pressed the button for the 22nd floor button after the elevator doors closed. During the elevator ride up, they went over today's schedule.

Lu Lixing was a workaholic, and his work was always done at high intensity. Every minute of his day was taken into account and productively used. He felt that time doing anything else but work was wasted.

The elevator dinged before the elevator doors opened. When Lu Lixing stepped out of the elevator, the employees that were drinking water or putting on their makeup froze. It was suddenly as quiet as a cemetery. They watched in silence as he walked past them.

Once Lu Lixing had walked away, a new round of speculation was launched. Employees gathered in groups of twos or threes to talk.

"OMG! CEO Lu didn't die!"

"I've been saying that CEO Lu didn't die this whole time. You guys wouldn't believe me."

"You said CEO Lu didn't die, but you also said that CEO Lu has been paralysed from waist down. We all just saw him. Does he look paralyzed to you?"

"You guys all lost the bet! Pay up!"

……

Lu Lixing pushed open the door to his office. His office was the most spacious one and the one with the best natural light in the building. Although his office wasn't on the top floor of the building, it was high enough that he could overlook the city from his window.

Like getting back on a bike after a long break, Lu Lixing walked to his desk, turned on his phone, and typed in his password. There was a large pile of documents waiting for him on the desk. He flipped through two pages, then he said to Qin Shao, "I don't need anything else. You can leave."

"Okay." Qin Shao left the office and closed his door on the way out.
