Nie Shaotang seems to be very busy these days. Yu Luo is sitting in his own office cubicle. In the president's office next door, he can hardly be seen all day long. Sometimes he just sits down and doesn't have time to drink a cup of coffee.
I was called out by another phone call.
There was a sound of opening the door, and Nie Shaotang entered the office, followed by Lin Yan. He loosened his tie, his face was full of exhaustion.
Yuluo felt a little distressed, got up, poured a cup of coffee, and knocked on the door.
"Don't bother me!"
A violent voice came, accompanied by the sound of something falling to the ground.
Yuluo hesitated and opened the door.
"Get out!"
A document was thrown over, but Yuluo couldn't dodge and was hit on the wrist, leaving a red and swollen mark.
Nie Shaotang raised his head and saw that the person who came in was Yu Luozhi. His eyes were a little annoyed. He stood up quickly, went up to meet her, and took her wrist.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you. Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Yu Luo shook her head and handed him the coffee in her hand, "Company, what happened?"
Nie Shaotang smiled and stretched out his hand to scratch her nose.
"Fool, what will happen if I'm here?"
"President--"
As soon as Lin Yan opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Nie Shaotang's warning eyes. He stopped talking. Nie Shaotang took the coffee from Yu Luo's hand with a smile and drank it in one gulp.
Yuluo looked at his smile, then looked at Lin Yan who was hesitant to speak, feeling a little confused.
"It's almost time to get off work. I'll ask the driver to take you back. Get some rest early. I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night."
"What about you?"
"There's something else going on at the company, and I'm about to get off work. Be good, go back first."
Yuluo nodded, glanced at him hesitantly, turned around and left the office.
As soon as she left, the smile on Nie Shaotang's face disappeared and was replaced by a frown.
"President, Nie's stock has almost fallen to the bottom. If we don't find a way, the company will go bankrupt."
“What does the bank say about loans?”
"The banks have been reluctant to let go, but according to my guess, someone must have put pressure on us from behind, otherwise not all banks would reject us."
Nie Shaotang pursed his lips tightly and lit a cigarette impatiently.
"President--"
"explain."
"President, Miss Yu is the sister of Cai Ye Xiuchen, the Ye family chaebol. Since you are already with her, why not use this topic to stir up speculation, maybe it can temporarily stabilize the stock price -"
"no!"
Nie Shaotang put out his cigarette butt and immediately interrupted Lin Yan's words.
"I don't want to take advantage of her."
"But, President——"
"go out!"
"Yes, President."

Yuluo didn't sleep well all night. Although Nie Shaotang didn't tell her what happened, it could be guessed from the unprecedented busyness and anxiety of the company's employees that Mr. Nie was in crisis. But she was unable to help him.
Coming down the stairs, Uncle Li came up to me with a smile and a newspaper in his hand.
"Miss, are you in love?"
"ah?"
Yuluo was confused by Uncle Li's ambiguous eyes. She took the newspaper from his hand, and there was a photo of her and Nie Shaotang printed on it. It was when they were eating in the restaurant that day. He leaned forward and stretched out his hand.
His tongue licked away the seafood soup from the corner of her mouth.
