An Zihao quickly grabbed her wrist, and before Shen Xuan could react, the elevator doors behind her closed.

This was the second time she had bumped into him, and the second time he had saved her from embarrassment in front of Li Siyuan.

She didn't understand why An Zihao was willing to help her.

"Where is he?" When Li Siyuan came out, he saw An Zihao standing at the elevator entrance.

In the corridor, he was all alone, with no one behind him.

His face was ashen, and his eyes were fixed on An Zihao.

"Who is it?" He slowly walked forward, looking at the other person with a puzzled expression, and asked in return.

"I'm asking you, where is Shen Xuan?" Li Siyuan's face was tense, his eyes piercing, as if he could see right through him.

"I don't know, has she arrived?"

"An Zihao, you really didn't see her?" he asked again.

“…” An Zihao spread his hands, indicating that he had never seen her.

His expression was as if he had never seen anyone before.

His acting skills are indeed remarkable; he was able to fake it flawlessly in front of Li Siyuan.

Unfortunately, Li Siyuan saw everything.

"Li Siyuan, didn't you never let them come to this place? What happened? Did Shen Xuan come knocking on our door?"

An Zihao deliberately changed the subject and asked a question.

Li Siyuan glared at him fiercely, then turned around and brushed past him.

Han Xin witnessed this scene from behind and felt an intense hatred for Shen Xuan's appearance.

Seeing Han Xin standing there with a pale face, An Zihao shamelessly leaned closer and joked, "I'm telling you, what's so great about Li Siyuan? Look at me, how much I love you! Forget about him, I'll take care of you!"

He put his arm around her shoulder and joked in a familiar tone.

Han Xin raised her elbow and jabbed him hard in the stomach, then walked out of the room, closed the door, and left on her own.

An Zihao immediately clutched his stomach. "Xin Xin, you're so heartless. I'm your friend, and I care about you even more than Li Siyuan. How could you do this to me?"

Seeing her walk away, he clutched his stomach and followed closely behind.

Shen Xuan wrapped her coat tightly around herself, flagged down a car on the side of the road, and jumped inside.

Throughout the journey, she was restless, feeling as if a heavy weight was pressing on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She leaned back in her seat, lost in thought.

Shen Xuan, what are you still hoping for?

Until we got back to the small apartment.

Just as she was about to take out her keys to open the door, Lu Yuchen appeared out of nowhere and called out to her.

"You're back?"

Shen Xuan turned around and asked with a hint of confusion, "President Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Yuchen pointed to the apartment next door and replied, "I just moved in, so we'll be neighbors from now on."

Since she left Xuanmao last time, Lu Yuchen went abroad and there has been no news of her for many days. Unexpectedly, she has moved here when she returned.

"Huh?" She seemed a little stunned. "When did you move in?"

“Just yesterday!” he replied calmly.

"Oh, why don't you come in and have a seat?"

“Okay!” Lu Yuchen took the key, strode over, and opened the door for her first.

"..." Shen Xuan was speechless for a moment.

I had intended to be polite, but I didn't expect him to be so direct and serious.

As Lu Yuchen approached, he looked around and joked, "You and Cheng Lu live here?"

"Hmm? Isn't this place nice?" Shen Xuan hung up the keys and responded casually.

She really couldn't figure out what Lu Yucheng was up to. He clearly had his own place to live, so why would he suddenly move in next to her?

Living in this place...

This doesn't seem to match his noble status, does it?

Shen Xuan walked in unhurriedly from the doorway with his hands in his coat pockets, then sat down on the sofa and poured himself a glass of water.

Before she could even take a sip, Lu Yuchen naturally took the water glass from her hand and said with a smile, "Thanks!"

His smile remained as warm and radiant as ever, always bringing a particularly comforting feeling.

"..." Shen Xuan looked at his face, feeling both speechless and embarrassed, and couldn't help but smile.

Lu Yuchen took a sip of hot water and only when he put the cup down did he realize that Shen Xuan was staring at him and smiling. He suddenly restrained himself when his eyes met hers.

"Xuan, have you considered going back to work at Xuanmao lately?"

"Oh dear!" She rubbed her forehead, feeling even more lost when she thought about her father's tough attitude.

She had no idea what the current situation of the Shen family was, so she had no idea where to start, and Shen Zhentao was putting on that kind of attitude.

"Why don't you go back to Xuanmao and become my assistant? I can help you!" As he spoke, he took out a check from his pocket and handed it to her.

Shen Xuan frowned repeatedly, a slight worry rising in her heart.

“This…” Shen Xuan stared blankly at the check on the coffee table, lost in thought.

Seeing this, Lu Yuchen picked up the check and placed it in her palm, saying firmly, "Twenty million may not be much, but it should be enough to help you out of your immediate predicament."

"Is this your real purpose for going out this time?" Shen Xuan asked in return.

This is no small sum. Although Xuanmao has developed well in the last two years, it is indeed a bit of a stretch to ask him to come up with such a large amount of money in such a short period of time.

He really should go abroad these next few days to help her think of a solution.

Thinking about it this way, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

She didn't want to involve him, but right now, besides money, there was really no other way to solve the problem.

“Ah Xuan, this amount of money is really nothing to me, so don’t feel guilty. Think about it, your life was almost lost because of me, so consider this as my compensation to you.”

Shen Xuan clenched her fists, her eyes instantly dimming. "I will pay you back!"

Lu Yuchen smiled gently, "It's alright, as long as you're happy!"

Hearing this, Shen Xuan awkwardly accepted the check.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu." She forced a smile and responded faintly.

Looking at her like that, Lu Yuchen felt a strange sensation welling up inside him.

It seems like it's been a long time since I've seen such a heartwarming scene.

These are his childhood memories, but he doesn't know when it started, but that childlike, handsome face has been deeply imprinted in his heart.

Now, when he faces such a face again, he has an indescribable feeling.

……

Two days later, Shen Xuan sat on the sofa in Lu Yuchen's office, intently organizing documents.

The business attire made her look more capable.

My phone suddenly rang.

She picked it up casually and saw that it was her father calling. After thinking for a moment, she answered the phone.

"What do you want by calling now?" Shen Xuan asked in a somewhat cold tone.

She still found it hard to accept what he had done.

"Ah Xuan, I've received all the money. Thank you so much!"

Shen Xuan frowned slightly, still holding a pen in one hand and her phone in the other. The polite tone of Shen Zhentao's voice echoed in her ears, and her heart tightened suddenly.

The image of that 20 million yuan check flashed through her mind, still lying quietly in her hand. How could he possibly say that he had already received the money?
