251: Chapter 251 Tao Tao Repays the Kindness!
The setting sun cast its rays, filling the entire office.
At that moment, a shadow in the room disappeared, appeared, and disappeared again!
Just then, the office door suddenly opened.
Zheng Qiu walked in with a smile.
However, at the moment the door opened, Zhou Yu’s figure appeared in front of Zheng Qiu like a ghost, their noses nearly touching.
Zheng Qiu screamed, scared stiff, and fell onto the floor, his heart almost leaping out of his mouth.
By then, other people from Engineering Department 4 had heard the noise and ran over.
Zheng Qiu’s face was filled with terror.
“Brother Yu, how did you suddenly appear like a ghost?”
“Did I?” Zhou Yu looked innocent and then glanced at Zheng Qiu’s crotch.
Zheng Qiu looked down, only to find his crotch area steaming.
Zheng Qiu’s face turned beet red in an instant, and he hurriedly scrambled up and dashed into the bathroom.
Once everyone else realized what had happened, they all burst into laughter.
After a day of practice, Zhou Yu had just begun to grasp the Mountain River Steps.
Now, he could move almost instantaneously within a hundred meters.
The visual effect presented was just as Zheng Qiu had seen, appearing as if out of thin air from the perspective of an ordinary person.
Of course, to a martial artist, it would not have the same effect.
However, Zhou Yu had only a basic grasp of the technique after his initial practice.
Once he mastered the Mountain River Steps to a higher level, he believed that just using his movement technique, he could dodge attacks from someone who had achieved Transcending the Ordinary.
Before long, Zheng Qiu came out of the bathroom.
With a look of resentment, he approached Zhou Yu.
“Brother Yu, there’s a girl outside looking for you.
I came specifically to tell you, and you played a trick on me, making me look foolish.
I’ve really lost face this time.”
Zhou Yu was startled.
“Someone is looking for me?
Zheng Qiu shook his head.
“I don’t know, but it’s a very beautiful girl.”
At this moment, Wang Miao and others also gathered around.
Especially Wang Miao, his eyes full of gossip.
“Brother Yu, who is that pretty girl?”
“Is she your girlfriend?”
“Does Sister Lin know about this?”
Wang Miao and others bombarded him with questions.
“Go on, get back to work.”
Zhou Yu looked unamused.
“I’ll go and have a look.”
Zhou Yu went to the reception outside and immediately saw a girl sitting on the sofa.
Zhou Yu was startled.
This girl was none other than Xu Qingqing’s best friend, Tao Tao.
Tao Tao looked up, saw Zhou Yu, and immediately stood up and approached him.
I hope I’m not disturbing you by coming here unannounced,” Tao Tao said nervously, fidgeting with her clothes.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
As he spoke, he slightly nodded his head back at Zheng Qiu.
Zheng Qiu flashed an understanding smile.
“Zhou Yu, I’m heading out now.
I’ll have everyone stay away from here.
Without your order, no one is allowed to come in.”
Zhou Yu was speechless.
Tao Tao, standing nearby, immediately blushed at these words.
After Zheng Qiu left, Zhou Yu cleared his throat.
“Miss Tao, did you need something from me?”
Tao Tao took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and said:
Zhou, I came to thank you.”
“You saved me last time, and my parents too.
I promised I would do anything to repay you.”
As Tao Tao spoke, she seemed so nervous and excited that her body trembled slightly.
Given her voluptuous figure, she looked incredibly enticing.
If Zhou Yu were to push her down now, Tao Tao would certainly not resist.
But Zhou Yu considered himself not that kind of man.
No, he couldn’t do that.
He must not be like that old man who thought only with his lower half.
Zhou Yu repeatedly cautioned himself in his heart.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his urges.
“Miss Tao, you’re thinking too much.
You’re Qingqing’s friend, which makes you my friend.
It’s only natural for friends to help each other.”
“If you consider me a friend, then don’t mention owing thanks.”
Upon hearing this, confusion flashed across Tao Tao’s face.
She looked up at Zhou Yu, her eyes beginning to well with tears.
Her family’s financial situation wasn’t good, and aside from her parents who genuinely cared for her, everyone else who approached her had only coveted her body.
So when she came to Zhou Yu, she had prepared herself for everything.
But she had never expected Zhou Yu to say such a thing.
For a moment, Tao Tao was so moved that she nearly cried.
Seeing the tears in her eyes, Zhou Yu quickly joked:
“Miss Tao, please don’t cry.
My fiancée is here too.
If she sees you , who knows what she’ll think.”
“I may not ask for your gratitude, but please don’t get me into trouble.”
At these words, Tao Tao burst into laughter.
She nodded emphatically.
“Heh, just call me Zhou Yu.”
Tao Tao gazed deeply at Zhou Yu and smiled:
After chatting for a while, Tao Tao said she had other matters to attend to, and Zhou Yu escorted her out.
After seeing Tao Tao off, Zhou Yu checked the time; it was already past seven o’clock.
He glanced at Lin Luoluo’s office and saw the light still on, so he walked over.
Inside the office, Lin Luoluo was busy as ever, wearing a pair of large black framed glasses, staring intently at the computer, with a stack of documents beside her.
Zhou Yu curiously asked:
“President Lin, what are you so busy with?”
Only then did Lin Luoluo notice Zhou Yu, and she sighed.
“The finance director Xue Bin has disappeared, and we haven’t found a suitable replacement yet.
I don’t trust anyone else, so I have to do the accounts myself.”
“You should head back, I’m staying here to work late tonight.”
“No worries, I’ll sit here for a while.”
Zhou Yu wasn’t in a hurry to go back, but instead sat in Lin Luoluo’s office sipping tea.
Lin Luoluo, too busy to entertain Zhou Yu, continued to immerse herself in her work.
After a while, Zhou Yu’s phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone to see that it was Li He calling.
Zhou, Miss Tao has had an accident.”
