Chapter 169


    An Xia had no other arrangements for the weekend, so she agreed to go when Su Ziyue called her up


    and told her about it.


    However, when she saw Bai Jingshu sitting in the car, she was stunned. “Why are you here too?”


    “You can go, so why can’t I?”


    “I’m an employee of Su Group—of course I can go!”


    “Oh, but did your vice president invite you personally?”


    “I…”


    “Get in the car. We’re runningte,” Qin Muchen said, interrupting the quarrel between the two.


    However, after both of them entered the car, they quarreled about whether or not to wind down the


    window.


    “It’s winter. Why wind down the window?”


    “For venttion.”


    “…”


    In the end, Nan Chuan sat between the two. Although the two still wanted to quarrel, it wasn’t very


    convenient with Nan Chuan being in the middle.


    Other than that, An Xia regarded Nan Chuan as her Prince Charming.


    Since her Prince Charming was sitting next to her, she must watch her behavior.


    …


    As the activity organized this time was being attended by thepany’s management personnel,


    everyone was driving directly to the hot spring club.


    When Su Ziyue arrived, most of the people had already arrived, and most of them had even brought


    family members.


    There was nearly no one—except her—who brought their husband, husband’s friends, and her own


    friend.


    “Director Su.”


    Someone with a lower position than her took the initiative to greet her.


    Su Ziyue responded with a smile. She also took the initiative to greet a few people who were in a


    higher position than she was.


    “Why are you here?”


    At this time, an unfriendly voice was heard.


    Su Ziyue turned her head to find Zhou Lingyu—dressed in extravagance—staring at her with a gloomy


    face.


    “That’s because Vice President Su invited me.” Su Ziyue raised her eyebrows slightly. Does she own


    the hot spring club? Am I not allowed toe?


    Looking as though she suddenly thought of something, Zhou Lingyu gave her a fierce look before she


    turned around and left.


    Bai Jingshu, who was sitting on the side ying with his phone, suddenly looked up and asked, “Who


    is that menopausal woman? She’s so rude.”


    Although An Xia was quarreling with him, she was the first to answer his question. “She’s the wife of


    Vice President Su.”


    Bai Jingshu nodded his head upon hearing this.


    When he asked the question, his voice was not too loud nor too soft; it could be heard by Zhou Lingyu


    who hadn’t gone far.


    No one would be happy being called an old woman, and Zhou Lingyu was no exception either.


    However, she could only suppress her anger temporarily because of the crowd here.


    She had long heard that after Yige went abroad, Su Ziyue made her mark in the Su Group; even Old


    Master Su seemed to think very highly of Su Ziyue.


    All of it should belong to my daughter, not Su Ziyue!


    …


    Soon, all the guests had arrived, and it was time to allocate the rooms.


    Su Ziyue and her party were behind because they had the most people.


    The smile on Su Yuanming’s face gradually disappeared when he saw Su Ziyue and her party, but he


    still maintained his calm demeanor.


    At this time, the manager took the lead and asked, “Excuse me, how many rooms do you need?”


    Before Su Ziyue could speak, Qin Muchen spoke first and said, “Four rooms.”


    He and Su Ziyue shared one room, while the other three had their own rooms.

    After they were all assigned rooms, Su Yuanming turned around and left, seemingly reluctant to look at


    them any longer.


    Looking at how angry Su Yuanming was, Su Ziyue didn’t bother calling him either. It was better not to


    do thankless things.


    The rooms assigned to them were next to each other.


    Su Ziyue walked in front with the key while Qin Muchen walked behind with their luggage before they


    entered the elevator together.


    When the elevator reached the floor in the middle, it stopped once and opened its doors, but there was


    no one.


    “Why is there no one?” An Xia asked in confusion.


    Su Ziyue nced at the empty corridor and said thoughtfully, “Perhaps the person wanted to take the


    elevator earlier, butter changed his mind thinking that the elevator was taking too long to arrive.”


    No one seemed to care about this incident.


    …


    The hot spring spa was in the suburbs and was newly opened. There were many people present most


    likely because of the suitable season.


    All of them rested in their respective rooms for a while. After getting something to eat, they went to


    enjoy the hot spring separately.


    Su Ziyue and An Xia were together, while the other three men stayed together.


    Poor Beef was left in the room all alone.


    Rxing in the hot spring with An Xia, Su Ziyue closed her eyes and felt the pores all over her body


    open up.


    Su Ziyue said, “It’s been a long time since I felt so rxed.”


    “Me too, I’ve been so tired recently.” An Xia leaned next to her. She also felt really exhausted as ofte.


    The two chatted casually and got up without soaking for too long.


    As this hot spring spa had other amenities besides the hot springs, they wanted to take advantage of


    this rare opportunity toe out and have fun.


    The two of them did not notify the other three men and went to another ce to y before they


    returned to their rooms.


    As soon as they walked into the elevator, Su Ziyue received a call from Qin Muchen.


    He sounded slightly impatient. “Where did you go? Did you go to another ce to y?”


    Su Ziyue could imagine his impatient and somewhat anxious expression on his face right then, so she


    mentally stuck her tongue out. “I’m almost at our room. I’m already in the elevator and heading up…”


    At that moment, the elevator door suddenly opened and a girl suddenly rushed in, bumping into Su


    Ziyue immediately.


    Su Ziyue was caught off guard, so she screamed as her phone fell to the ground.


    “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” The girl who bumped into Su Ziyue apologized repeatedly, leaving no room for Su


    Ziyue to speak.


    “It’s okay, just be careful next time.” As Su Ziyue spoke, An Xia had already picked up the phone for


    her.


    The elevator had also ascended one floor up and stopped at the floor which Su Ziyue and the others


    were staying at.


    As soon as the elevator door opened, Su Ziyue saw Qin Muchen striding over from the end of the


    corridor.


    He walked toward the elevator with an anxious look on his face. Seeing Su Ziyue walk out of the


    elevator intact, he looked visibly relieved.


    “What happened just now?: Qin Muchen approached Su Ziyue, took her hand, and looked at her up


    and down.


    “Nothing. A girl simply charged into the elevator and knocked my phone off,” said Su Ziyue as she


    fiddled with her phone. Luckily, it wasn’t broken.


    They did not take this matter to heart and went back to their own rooms. In the evening, they went out


    to have dinner together.


    The colleagues in thepany got together at the restaurant at night, so Su Ziyue had to show up as a


    mere formality.


    After she entered the restaurant, she saw a familiar face—the girl who charged into the elevator earlier


    that day was also there.


    A trace of surprise shed across Su Ziyue’s face; after looking at her for a while, she couldn’t see


    whose family member the girl was.


    Later on, she simply nced at her for a few more times, had a few drinks with several people whom


    she had a better rtionship with, and left the dinner with Qin Muchen.


    However, she felt the girl watching her right before she left.
