Cheng Chen’s eyes were still adjusting to the brightness. He frowned and blinked. Suddenly, he felt a weight leave his shoulder. When he looked over, he saw the girl looking at him in shock.
“You are not from the technology department… you are Chairman Cheng…” After seeing the man’s face and confirming his identity, Yu Luoluo hurried to stand up. But because she had been sitting down for a whole night, she wobbled and was a little off-balance. Before she could catch herself, her whole body fell to the floor.
Cheng Chen subconsciously reached out his hand to steady Yu Luoluo, but because he wasn’t fast enough, what he caught was not Yu Luoluo’s shoulder or arm.
When she was touched, Yu Luoluo jumped away immediately as if electrocuted, but because she lost her balance, she fell onto the floor.
“Are you alright?” Cheng Chen lowered his voice and asked.
Yu Luoluo was still in shock. She clutched her chest and took a few steps backward.”Don’t come over, Chairman Cheng…”
Cheng Chen withdrew his hand. The smell of that girl’s detergent seemed to have lingered on his palm. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to,… I just wanted to catch you.”
Yu Luoluo nodded her head while blushing. She could tell that Cheng Chen had meant to steady her, and he didn’t intend to take advantage of her. That was why, even though he had touched her inappropriately, she couldn’t say anything.
“Also, strictly speaking, I didn’t lie to you. To a certain extent, my job does involve technical skills.” Cheng Chen used one hand to push himself off the floor and stood up in a smooth motion. Then, he picked up his tie and coat.
Yu Luoluo watched Cheng Chen gracefully button up the collar and cuffs of his shirt, then neatly tie his tie, and put on his jacket.
Was this not the cold and distant company chairman, Cheng Chen, in front of her? Yu Luoluo really couldn’t associate this mature and charismatic man with the technology department guy she had been chatting with last night. But in reality, they were the same person.
At that moment, the security guard’s voice sounded from outside the practice room. “Is there anyone in here?”
When she heard the security guard’s voice, Yu Luoluo hurriedly shouted, “Yes! Yes!”
“Oh, wait a moment!”
Not long after, the door was opened from the outside by the security guard. He was holding a bolt cutter in one hand and a lock in the other.
“I don’t know who it was, but someone locked the door with a padlock, Young miss, are you alright?” The security guard first saw the exhausted Yu Luoluo when he walked entered the room. Then, when he looked further into the room, he was shocked to discover that Cheng Chen was here too.
“Chairman… Chairman Cheng!” The security guard was so surprised that both the bolt cutter and padlock in his hands dropped onto the ground. In his heart, he thought that things were over for him. He had been on the night shift, and he had been slacking the whole night. He didn’t patrol properly, and when he reached this floor, he didn’t take a proper look, so he didn’t even know that someone was locked here.
It would be alright if it was only this young lady, but as luck would have it, Chairman Cheng was here too.
The security guard wanted to die. Not only did he lock Chairman Cheng up for a whole night, but he had also seen something he shouldn’t have.
What could Chairman Cheng be doing with a trainee in a practice room in the middle of the night? They definitely had some shady business going on, and he had interrupted them. Wasn’t this practically signing his own death warrant?
“Chairman Cheng… rest assured, I haven’t seen anything, and I won’t tell anyone/”
When Yu Luoluo heard the security guard’s words, she knew that there was a misunderstanding. She hurriedly explained, “There’s nothing going on between me and Chairman Cheng. I was just practicing in here last night, and Chairman Cheng was just passing by, and somehow we got locked in here. It just so happens that I didn’t bring my phone, and Chairman Cheng’s phone is dead, and that’s how we got into this situation… Sir, please don’t misunderstand!”
