Don't meet me in your next life.

Chapter 121

Lu Yun Shen walked forward, then suddenly stopped. "By the way, who was that man we met at the hospital last time?"

"You mean Li Youzhe?"

Xiang Yi smiled. "Oh, he's my friend's younger brother. We're quite close; I've always considered him family."

She didn't want Lu Yunshen to misunderstand Li Youzhe, so she tried to phrase her words tactfully.

"I see."

Lu Yunshen didn't ask any more questions. He turned and walked towards his car.

"Then I'll be going now," Xiang Yi said as she walked beside him.

"Okay, drive carefully, and let me know when you arrive," Lu Yunshen instructed her.

"Okay, bye-bye."

He waved to Yi Yi, then turned and went into the company.

Watching Xiang Yiyi's figure gradually disappear from sight, Lu Yunshen finally looked away.

"Young Master Lu, shall we go home?"

"Um."

Lu Yunshen started the engine and drove away from the restaurant.

At this moment, Xiang Yiyi had already taken the elevator to the 28th floor.

As soon as she stepped into the office, she saw the man behind the desk.

"President."

She called out, but Li Youzhe did not respond for a long time.

She looked up in confusion at the man behind the desk.

His face was a little pale, and there were faint bruises on his cheeks.

He... got beaten up?!

"President?" Xiang Yi called out again, seeing that Li Youzhe was still engrossed in his work.

So she said nothing more, coughed lightly, and sat back down in her seat.

Xiang Yi's actions brought Li Youzhe back to his senses, and he frowned as he looked at her.

"What, is there something dirty on my face?"

Xiang Yi shook her head. "No. I just think you look a bit strange today, Mr. President."

Upon hearing this, Li Youzhe curled his lips into a cold smile. "Strange? Are you worried I'll get beaten up?"

His eyes gleamed with a dangerous light.

Upon seeing this, Xiang Yi quickly shook her head, "No, absolutely not. How could I possibly worry about you? You're the company's president, an omnipotent being."

Upon hearing Xiang Yiyi's flattery, Li Youzhe's smile widened even further.

"That mouth of yours is getting sweeter and sweeter."

He praised her, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Xiang Yi pouted and ignored him.

Li Youzhe continued, "Don't concern yourself with my affairs. Also, unless absolutely necessary, don't come to the company to see me, lest others see you and start making wild guesses."

Xiang Yi was secretly pleased to hear this. "Thank you for reminding me. I'll pay attention in the future. However, President, I'm here today for a follow-up examination."

"Okay." Li Youzhe nodded. "Sit down."

Following Li Youzhe's instructions, Xiang Yi sat down opposite him.

"Are you feeling unwell today?" Li Youzhe asked.

Xiang Yi shook her head. "It's alright."

"That's good."

Li Youzhe looked at her, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

Xiang Yi felt his gaze and couldn't help but ask, "President, what's wrong with you today? Is something off with me?"

"Um."

Li Youzhe nodded, then took a stack of documents from the drawer and placed them on the table in front of her.

Xiang Yi looked at the documents Li Youzhe handed her, somewhat surprised, "This is..."

Li Youzhe glanced at her indifferently and said, "I've noticed you've been acting strangely lately, and I'm a little worried about your condition, so I've arranged some tests for you. Here are some of the test reports. Take a look, and make any changes immediately if necessary."

His words were devoid of warmth and unfathomable. Xiang Yi didn't want to ponder him, so she took the report and began to read it.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Mr. President."

He expressed his gratitude to Yi.

"Um."

Li Youzhe gave a faint "hmm," then added, "Is there anything else? If not, you can leave now."

Xiang Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, "President... you should take care of yourself and get some rest."

"Um."

Li Youzhe remained as cold and aloof as ever, and Xiang Yi couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how difficult it was to get along with this CEO.

Ugh!

Oh well, let him do whatever he wants.

As Xiang Yi turned around and walked to the door, she heard Li Youzhe suddenly call her name.

“Wait a moment.”

"Is there anything else, President?" Xiang Yi asked, turning her head.

"I'll be attending the banquet tonight. Get ready and come with me."

Xiang Yi's eyes widened in surprise. "A banquet?"

She hasn't decided what dress to wear yet!

"Hmm." Li Youzhe snorted coldly. "Your job is to be my female companion. I don't want people to say that I bring a female companion, which would make them suspect that there's some kind of ambiguous relationship between us."

"I don't need you to accompany me to any occasions!"

His words enraged Xiang Yi.

She turned away angrily and strode out of the office.

Xiang Yi stormed back to her seat, grabbed her bag, and was about to leave when her assistant stopped her.

"Secretary Xiang, you can't leave now."

"What? I have things to do, I don't have time to waste here!" Xiang Yi said angrily.

"I'm sorry, I only listen to the CEO." The assistant still blocked her from leaving.

"you--"

Xiang Yi gritted her teeth in anger, but was at a loss for what to do.

She glanced unwillingly at Li Youzhe's office, but in the end, she turned and left.

She didn't want to have anything to do with Li Youzhe, but she had no choice but to attend various social events with him.

However, she had already experienced Li Youzhe's unpredictable personality. Since he had asked her to accompany him to various social events, he certainly didn't intend to let her go.

Xiang Yi sighed.

There's no escaping it this time.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Xiang Yi took Li Youzhe's arm and walked out of the elevator.

Everyone in the elevator couldn't help but turn their heads to look.

"Wow, who's that beautiful woman next to the CEO? She's actually stealing our thunder!"

"Exactly, aren't all the people around the CEO women? How come such a beautiful woman appears?"

"Oh my! Look at that necklace around her neck, it looks so familiar!"

"Isn't that the limited edition teardrop-shaped blue diamond necklace our company released a while ago?"

"Really? Could it be that Xiang Yiyi?"

"You just met her? Isn't she Xiang Yiyi, the heiress of the Xiang family?"

"It really is her! Holy crap, she actually hooked up with the CEO! How did she do it? Could it be...?"

"Damn! This woman is shameless! She actually dared to seduce the CEO right in front of him!"

"Exactly! That woman is shameless!"

When Xiang Yi heard those people's comments, her face turned extremely ugly. Just as she was about to retort, she suddenly heard Li Youzhe's deep voice.

"Shut up, all of you! If you dare to make any more wild guesses, I'll dock a million from your monthly salaries!"

Xiang Yi was taken aback when she heard this, but then she understood Li Youzhe's intention.

He was helping her out of a difficult situation!

This man is truly awful!

She couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at him.

"you......"

"President, how could you do this! Do you know you almost killed me!"

"Did I? You said those things yourself; I didn't force you."

"you!"

Xiang Yi was so angry that she couldn't speak, and turned to glare at him fiercely.
