Elder Bin waved his hand, "Of course, I am talking about this brat." He nced at Zhao Yichen but thetter remained silent, at a loss what to do.


    Elder Bin continued, "That brat in my home… Heh!! I don''t even know what he looks like clearly let alone what he does. Letting girl Luo marry him is like insulting the family!"


    Luo Lixi slowly turned her eyes at the man stiffly standing beside her and thought in panic, ''At this rate, i will be paired with several men even before I can walk out of this office!''


    Her gaze wasplicated when she nced around the room.''I feel like I shall leave immediately but then it''s disrespectful…''


    Luo Lixi pressed her lips together and would answer from time to time when she was asked some questions. But nobody mentioned her disappearance even once.


    After two hours passed by, the old men did not show any sign to stop chatting. Luo Lixi rubbed her hands and nced at her phone, ncing downwards.


    ''I can''t stand it anymore!" Luo Lixi abruptly stood up. At that all the men turned their attention to her.


    "Grandfather,elders, I need to go now. There is something important I have to do." Lyi Lixi wrapped her hands together.


    "Go ahead. Afterall, what we are discussing has nothing to do with you." Elder Wang told her thoughtfully.


    "Sorry. I will be leaving then…" She turned around and left the room.


    Elder Bin turned at the slow minded grandson of his and said, "What are you doing here?! Aren''t you her bodyguard? What will you do after you enter the army?"


    Zhao Yichen seemed to have woken up from a trance. He bowed at the old people and hurriedly left as well, chasing after Luo Lixi.


    On the other hand, Luo Lixi started to walk inrge steps after she came out of that room. She didn''t seem to notice the presence of her staff.


    "Ah, isn''t that Luo Lixi?"


    "What Luo Lixi? She is our CEO now."


    "What?! Are you serious?! Shouldn''t it be her brother?"


    "Girl, where were you when they came to thepany? Look at thepany forum …"


    Many people greeted her on the way she walked but she didn''t reply to anybody, her whole mind was numb.


    Soon, she went to the deserted area of the fifth floor and stared at the area from above.


    When the other person was following her, she didn''t think too much, but now that Zhao Yichen stood before her eyes, she wanted to interrogate the man without any reason.


    "Miss Luo…" Zhao Yichen came closer but Luo Lixi singled him.


    "Stop. Don''t say anything. Why didn''t you say you are Elder Bin''s grandson?!" She felt cheated. "I used to think that you are amoner yet…"


    Zhao Yichen hardened his face and replied, "I was under my grandfather''smand not to reveal my identity and work in the agency of him…"


    "So, I guess you were selected as my personal bodyguard because you are his grandson. That''s why grandfather chose you back then?"


    Zhao Yichen nodded. Luo Lixi closed her eyes for a few seconds and took deep breaths.


    "Forget it." She turned towards the ss wall and went before the railing, "I want to spend some time alone."


    Zhao Yichen nodded and withdrew from the ce but he didn''t entirely leave her. Rather he stood before the door of an entrance and stared at her figure, without blinking.


    Luo Lixi finally calmed herself down and raised the phone. Then she called Sheng Ruming.


    The call was received right away. "Lixi…"


    Even before the man could say something, she interrupted, "Where are you?"


    "Me? I am roaming around." Sheng Ruming said as he lifted his face to see the woman who was on the other side of the ss wall, his lips curled upwards.


    Luo Lixi remained silent. The man waited for her to say something but upon her silence, he couldn''t help but ask, "What''s wrong, honey?"


    "Nothing." She touched the cold wall with her fingertips and finally said, her voice barely audible , "Take… me with you. Let''s travel the city together."


    "Alright. Call me when you are free."


    "Hmm." Luo Lixi said but she didn''t cut the call. Rather grabbed the phone tighter and continued to nce ahead.


    From below, the man retracted his sight and thought for a minute. Then, without much forethinking, he left the car.


    Xiao Huang immediately came out and asked, "Do you need a mask and sunsses?"


    "... No need." As the man replied, he started to walk towards thepany. But he was stopped at the entrance.


    "Sorry, sir. Only the staff and those who have permission can enter…" The trained guards blocked his path.


    ''Sigh!'' Sheng Ruming shook his head and called the woman under their intense gaze.


    Luo Lixi was nning to go back when she received a call, "Tell your guards to let me in."


    "Ah?!" She was puzzled.


    "I am at the entrance of yourpany…"


    "...Weren''t you roaming in the city?"


    Luo Lixi asked as she checked the time. ''Two minutes have not passed yet you have already arrived?'' She thought while smiling.


    "You wait there. I will being down in a while." Luo Lixi said as she cut the call.


    "Hey, hey!" The man stopped shouting as the sounds of call being disconnected rang beside his ears.


    The guards looked at each other in understanding and thought in unison, ''Troublemaker!!!''


    Their thoughts were like how could this man know their new boss, moreover, thatdy didn''t even call them to let him in. It looked suspicious to them.


    One of them saw Sheng Ruming was dressed in branded clothes. Another thought came in his mind, ''Is he a reporter or paparazzi? Trying to sneak in?!''


    At this thought, the guard became aggressive. He said outright, "Leave the path for others. Don''t block the way. Stand at the side if you want."
