Chapter 191 Xi Du
“Xiao Wan.”
Long Xu In nodded at the woman in the grey suit who possessed an outstandingly beautiful pair of legs. She was her personal assistant named Xiao Wan.
“CEO Long, your brother just dropped by a moment ago. He said he’s waiting for you on the fourth floor.”
Xiao Wan spoke politely. She looked at Bai Chen who was standing behind Long Xu In and could not help but frown.
“Who is he? Why is he with CEO Long?’ she wondered.
She was like everyone else, wondering about who Bai Chen might be.
“My brother?” Long Xu In frowned a little. She thought that her brother had already gone back to Dong Hai island. He was the one who’d told her this morning that he would leave for the island in the afternoon.
She shook her head a little. “Mm-hmm, I got it. Did anything important come up while I was away?”
“Nothing, ma’am. But there are many documents that need to be signed by the CEO,” Xiao Wan answered politely.
“Okay. You can go back to work,” Long Xu In told Xiao Wan before turning back to Bai Chen who was standing behind her. He had not even come into the room.
“My office is inside here,” she said and led the way inside.
Bai Chen followed her into the room. He looked at Xiao Wan for a second and thought that her legs were really beautiful. Then, he started to look around the room.
It was just like what Long Xu In had said. Her office was actually inside this room, even though it did not seem like it.
There was another room inside of it and it was in front of them now. The previous room was actually more like her personal assistant’s space; it was rather small.
One could say that it was rather cramped. It was only big enough to place a single table in it, with a small space left to walk.
Long Xu In was already at the door. She opened the door to her office.
Bai Chen followed her inside, leaving Xiao Wan confused. She had not even replied to what Long Xu In had just said.
“He probably can’t be CEO Long’s boyfriend,” Xiao Wan said to herself. Her eyes were still fixed on the closed door of Long Xu In’s office.
“Impossible.”
She immediately shook her head. She thought that Bai Chen couldn't be Long Xu In’s boyfriend. She then walked back to her seat behind her desk and continued working.
Long Xu In’s office had been decorated slightly luxuriously, but at the same time, it was still simple.
There were not a lot of things inside. There were her desk and a sofa for guests. Even so, the room was still quite spacious.
Bai Chen stood in front of her desk while looking around the room.
“What do you think of my office?” Long Xu In asked. She stood not far from Bai Chen.
Bai Chen turned to look at her and smiled a little. “It’s beautifully furnished.”
Long Xu In felt happy after hearing what Bai Chen had said. It was only normal because she was the interior designer of her own office.
“Now that you’ve seen my office, the last floor would be the fourth floor. My brother’s there too. Do you want to go right now?” Long Xu In said.
Bai Chen immediately nodded. Now that he had seen her office, there was only the fourth floor left. He wondered what he would find there.
Without saying anything more, Long Xu In led him out of her office.
“CEO Long, there’s someone’s asking for you.”
However, the second they stepped out of the office, Xiao Wan sprang up from her seat and spoke.
She’d just received the news about this issue only seconds before Long Xu In and Bai Chen had come out of the office.
“Who is it?” Long Xu In looked at Xiao Wan.
“Reception told me that his name is Xi Du, ma’am,” Xiao Wan answered.
She was thinking that maybe this Xi Du was probably from the Xi family, one of the five big families of Beijing, like CEO Long who came from the Long family.
It was only normal that she would not know who Xi Du was because she had been born and raised in Xing Zhou city. She did not follow the news about the big families much.
However, she did know one of the Xi family members, Xi Dong. Xi Dong was very famous in Beijing. She only had to search his name in Baidu and a lot of information about him would come up.
She also wondered why there was no news about him at all lately. It was obvious that the news of Xi Dong being held in prison had been completely covered up.
Other than authorities and family members of the big families, no one ever knew this news.
“Xi Du.” Long Xu In immediately knitted her beautiful eyebrows. She looked annoyed. “Tell him I’m not here.”
“I… I can’t. I just told him you were here, ma’am.” Xiao Wan was agitated. She was afraid that Long Xu In would be angry at her because she’d made a mistake.
Judging from CEO Long’s facial expression, it was obvious that she did not want to meet this Xi Du at all.
“Fine then.”
Long Xu In could only let out a sigh. It was at the same time a knock on the door sounded.
“I’m Xi Du. I’ve come to see CEO Long.”
A voice sounded after the knock.
“Please come in.”
Long Xu In looked at Xiao Wan. Xiao Wan quickly turned to the door and called out.
Less than one minute later, the door was opened. Its opening revealed a handsome man wearing a nice-looking white suit. He was smiling so widely his white teeth could be seen.
This was Xi Du from the Xi family, one of the five big families of Beijing. He was also Xi Dong’s biological sibling.
After Xi Dong was put in jail, he became next in line to be the leader of the family. It made him so happy because he had always been second to Xi Dong when he was around, be it in terms of looks or potential. One could say that he’d had no chance of being the leader of the Xi family.
However, everything had changed these days. He was happy that the heavens had given him this chance. He thought Xi Dong had gotten what he deserved.
However, in the midst of his joy, he was also very sad that the Xi family was seeing its downfall. It had fallen so low, it was difficult to maintain its position as the first of the five big families of Beijing.
Therefore, to make the Xi family rise again, he was pursuing Long Xu In. It was following an order from Xi Duan, his father.
If he could have Long Xu In’s hand in marriage, the Xi family would rise again for sure, with support from the Long family.
