Chapter 367

“Okay, let me refill another cup for you.” Fang Chixia was unruffled and refilled her cup without complaints.

“Mr. Luo, this is yours.” Holding another cup, she walked towards Luo Yibei, placed it on his desk, turned around to leave, but Luo Yibei stacked a lot of documents in front of her. “This list of data, help me verify them.”

The accounts piled up high, probably stockpiled for a few months, just a glance a the dense records of figures can drive a person dizzy.

As Fang Chixia looked at the thick pile, her fists clenched tight, but eventually they loosened up.

“Sure.” She has been extremely forbearing today. She carried the documents to leave, but Luo Yibei dragged her wrist: “Check it out here.”

Fang Chixia was exasperated at his high-handedness.

He’s dating his love, so why does he have to bother her?

“Any objections?” Luo Yibei raised an eyebrow, his tone unwavering.

Fang Chixia was fuming inside, but it remained hidden, her face still maintained her composure.

“No.”She moved a chair and sat next to him after a bland denial.

Luo Yibei no longer bothered her and instead turned towards Su Ran to continue their chat.

“Yibei, you’ve changed a lot here. I remember, every time I came to visit, you were never this chic.” Su Ran combed his office and commented. Even if Fang Chixia is a woman herself, her soft voice came across awfully silky.

There were many small potted plants in Luo Yibei’s office. Fang Chixia planted them for him whenever she was feeling okay, and even added several vases of flowers.

These lovely purple hydrangea are vibrant, transforming his originally masculine rigid office into a milder hue.

Luo Yibei didn’t pay much attention to these ornaments, mainly because Fang Chixia’s taste was fine, and these decorations, even with his discerning taste, somehow impress him.

Therefore, for such a trivial matters, Luo Yibei left her do as she wished.

When Su Ran asked, Luo Yibei didn’t expound on it, but just returned with light “um”.

But Fang Chixia, who was sitting beside him was pricked. Every time she visited?

Has she been here many times?

Su Ran took a sip of coffee, and continued chatting with Luo Yibei. “Yibei, should I visit grandfather at home? After arriving back here for a few days, I haven’t visited the old man yet.

“Okay.” Luo Yibei readily agreed.

“By the way, grandpa’s favorite is jade carving, right? I remember once when you were a kid, you accidentally broke a pixiu*. At that time, I don’t know how heartbroken he was. He was so furious he almost forced you to glue the broken pieces together……”

“Haha, that incident was actually quite hilarious, but in the end you didn’t take it seriously.”

“I remember a lot of things when we were kids. There was also a jade tower before that, and ah…”

She chattered endlessly. At first, it was all about Luo Yibei, then the time when she dragged the half-dead Luo Yibei out, then in the midst of it, somehow, prattled about the two of them.

When Luo Yibei fell into a lake, what else happened after she sustained injuries, he carried her on his back all the way. In addition, for her, he quarreled with his grandfather and so on.

Fang Chixia was still in the room and was forced to stay by Luo Yibei. At this point, her eyes are stinging from staring at a bunch of figures and auditing, while the two people continue laughing and chatting….

*Pixiu – is a Chinese mythical hybrid creature, commonly referred to in the West by the Greek word “chimera”, and considered a powerful protector of practitioners of Feng Shui.





Chapter 368

A flicker of irritation swelled in her heart.

If they wanted to reminisce about their sweet innocent chilhood days or them being innocent playmates, just do it when they are all alone. Why drag her here to listen exclusively?

Was she afraid that the whole world wouldn’t know how close they are?

She’s sorry to say, but the real wife is right in front of her!

Fang Chixia’s frustration at the numbers kicked in at the moment, so regardless of Luo Yibei’s presence beside her, she blurted out of the blue, ” You’re the adultererous couple!”

The four words rang with clarity. Although she muttered inaudibly so how could Su Ran hear it.

But with Luo Yibei’s keen hearing plus he was sitting next to her, it naturally pierced his ears.

His face sank, his face slightly distorted.

“Miss Fang, what did you say?” The corner of his lips ticked coldly, and asked dourly.

“I haven’t said anything.” Fang Chixia calmly returned, lowered her head and continued to battling the flood of numbers.

Her retort was unflinching giving the impression that she really said nothing.

Her casual attitude dropped the temperature in Luo Yibei’s eyes colder.

This account will be listed in his black book!

Fang Chixia carried on inspecting the thick stack of data sheets.

The interruption disrupted the conversation between the two and hushed the office for a moment. But not a minute after, Su Ran’s voice rang once more.

All she talked about were her childhood with Luo Yibei. The two have a lot of stories to tell, at this trend, they won’t be finished any time soon.

Her voice is actually pretty nice. Her gentle and willowy voice was music to the ears.

Nonetheless, as Fang Chixia was reviewing a financial data, she’s prone to errors when distracted.

And with Su Ran’s noisy voice ringing in her ears from time to time, she misread several times and had to start all over again.

ang Chixia was annoyed. She also couldn’t tell what was wrong with her. She raised her head and suddenly shot a piercing glance at Su Ran, “Can you be quiet? You’re disturbing me!”

Her light voice, without a trace of personal emotion, was purely a reminder.

Su Ran was floored. With the admonishment coming from an assistant, her face stiffened and finally turned her eyes to Luo Yibei.

Luo Yibei on the other hand was pleased. He didn’t even rebuke Fang Chixia for being rude.

Outside the door, a knock burst.

Followed by Sha Zhixing’s voice, “Yibei, open the door!”

Luo Yibei stood up, walked a few steps, and opened the door for her.

Sha Zhixing didn’t come in either, just handed him a female jacket in her hand, “Su Ran’s, I accidentally took it away when we left Su Ran past twelve the night before, help me thank her.”

She was holding a very thin coat in her hand, with fine colors and feminine design, which fits Su Ran’s style perfectly.

Past twelve the night before, he and Sha Zhixing left together?

Were both mother and son there that night?

The night before the big day was the night when Fang Chixia called Luo Yibei for help and Su Ran received it. She always thought that Luo Yibei was alone with his lover …

Sha Zhixing’s voice was raised a bit louder, and as she spoke, she glanced quietly at Fang Chixia.

Fang Chixia’s shrewdness quickly latched on what Sha Zhixing was trying to convey.

Her drooping face slowly lifted up, and her gaze fell on Luo Yibei.
