Chapter 891 - Dare to Slap Her Face (1/2)
She walked towards Chu Lui’s study. Chu Xiang bit on her small lips and followed her as she held Xia Ruoxin’s hand.
“Auntie, will you be my Mommy?” she asked softly.
Xia Ruoxin stopped in her tracks and looked down. As she looked down from a high point, she saw the light that flashed in Chu Xiang’s eyes, which was a little hopeful and also calculative.
“Sorry.” She smiled, but her smile was cold.
“I won’t.”
Yes, she would not be Chu Xiang’s mother. Never in her life.
Chu Xiang slowly let go of her hand as she felt that she had found the wrong person. She did not know what she was going to do next.
Xia Ruoxin wiped her finger, but her gaze met with Chu Lui, who was standing by the door.
Oh, when did he come? How much did he hear?
“Hello, CEO.” She walked up and greeted him formally like always.
“Mm, come in.”
Chu Lui opened the door to his study and let her in while his expression remained the same. One could not tell if he was happy, angry, or sad.
Xia Ruoxin walked in and put the documents she brought on the table before explaining them one by one.
“CEO, I have already arranged these documents. If there’s nothing wrong, I need you to sign here.” These were all documents for the company’s internal structure and would be carried out within the company so they must have Chu Lui’s own signature before they could take effect.
Chu Lui took the documents and sat on his office chair to flip them. Recently, Song Wan was not in good condition so he had to stay at home the whole time. That was also the reason why Xia Yixuan came over more frequently.
Chu Lui generally flipped the documents as he trusted Xia Ruoxin’s working capabilities very much. These documents were arranged perfectly, simple and easy enough to understand. He could just glance at it to know what the documents were talking about.
He took his signature pen and signed on top. The two words ‘Chu Lui’ were written thousands and millions of times. These two words were Chu Enterprise’s everything, which represented limitless authority and, of course, tremendous stress.
He gently rubbed his forehead. When he raised his head, he saw Xia Ruoxin sitting on the couch in a very demure manner. At this point, her head was slightly lowered; and a greenish-blue light was shining on her smooth and neat hair that was not dyed. He realized that her eyelashes were very long, and they curled upwards. There was a thin layer of mist covering her eyes which made her seem more approachable, which was weird. To him, this woman was very hard to approach. Even though she would smile at him, what he felt behind that smile was the distance that he could never cover.
Her skin was good, and her pretty face was very similar to that woman. Just that when she separated the hair at the side of her forehead, there was a tiny scar there. Lu Jinrong said before that there was a scar on his sister’s forehead as she had fallen when she did not carry her properly. Back then when the doctor wanted to remove it, Madam Lu refused as she said that Xiaohua was too pretty. If she was stolen, they could still use this scar to find her.
So, no matter how similar she was to that woman, pitifully; she was not her.
“I’m done.” He placed the documents aside.
“Mm.” Xia Ruoxin recovered her senses and stood up.
“Take them.” Chu Lui leaned against his chair, and his pair of sharp, dark eyes had always been on her. At this point, his eyes were slightly thickened.
