“What’s the matter?” Xiao Yichen inquired, noticing You Luan’s unease, uncertain of his intentions.

“Madam’s at the front desk on the first floor, requesting to see you,” You Luan disclosed, hesitating to refer to Lin Wan as ‘Madam.’ It might enrage Xiao Yichen, but she was undeniably Madam! Xiao Yichen’s Madam!

Xiao Yichen’s expression darkened instantly. After a moment of silence, he curtly declined, “No.”

With that, he returned to his work.

You Luan saw Xiao Yichen’s angry expression and had to nod and leave.

Once You Luan left, Xiao Yichen’s focus shifted to thoughts of Lin Wan.

Why does she want to see me? Is it about Elite Jewelry moving into the mall?

Could it be just business?

Meanwhile, downstairs, the receptionist informed Lin Wan, “Miss Lin, I regret to inform you that our CEO is exceptionally occupied and cannot accommodate any visitors.”

“Hello, I need to discuss work with your CEO. Can you notify him again? I only need ten minutes. Just ten minutes will suffice!” Lin Wan pleaded hurriedly.

However, the front desk staff at the Eastern Empire were dismissive. They made their statement to Lin Wan and continued with their tasks.

The CEO had numerous appointments daily. Their duty was merely to relay messages. Pleading wasn’t their concern!

Lin Wan, although insisting it was work-related, was undeniably attractive.

Was it genuinely about work or something else?

Considering the receptionist’s lack of cooperation, Lin Wan realized she couldn’t proceed to Xiao Yichen’s office due to security presence.

After contemplation, Lin Wan resolved to intercept Xiao Yichen in the parking lot.

Xiao Yichen worked until noon when You Luan reminded him about lunch. Curious, he asked, “Has she left?”

You Luan pondered briefly before responding, “There haven’t been any further reports from the reception. Madam might have departed.”

A trace of disappointment flickered across Xiao Yichen’s face.

Upon preparing to head downstairs for lunch, Xiao Yichen received a call.

Xiao Yichen took the phone and saw that it was Luo Ziyan’s number. He picked it up immediately.

“Yichen, if you’re free today, let’s grab a meal together,” Luo Ziyan suggested over the phone.

“Just a meal?” Xiao Yichen inquired while reaching for his coat.

“I can’t fool you,” Luo Ziyan chuckled. “I’m planning two new research labs and need sponsorships.”

“You already have stakes in Luo Group,” Xiao Yichen remarked, understanding his friend’s intentions and his implication in it.

“Eastern Empire’s reputation surpasses Luo Group’s. If my lab is under Eastern Empire’s sponsorship, we might attract talented researchers,” Luo Ziyan explained.

Xiao Yichen wasn’t surprised. This was typical of his friend’s approach.

“Send me the address. I’ll head over,” Xiao Yichen accepted.

“It’s my treat today,” Luo Ziyan added happily before hanging up.

Upon exiting the office and entering the elevator, Xiao Yichen received a text.

As he approached the open-air parking lot outside the East Mansion, he spotted Lin Wan walking toward him from a distance..
