After Divorce: Pursued by Cohabiting Boss

Chapter 99

Li Yinnan added heavily, "But Yu Sheng must come tonight."

The people who came today were all here after hearing about Yu Sheng and Li Zhen a few days ago, looking to build ties with the Li family.

Li Yinnan must have Yu Sheng present.

Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat.

He had actually agreed!

That meant she could get the shares in one or two months at the earliest.

Li Zhen almost wanted to agree right away, but then remembered how Yu Sheng had looked in the elevator earlier.

Zhao Yan said he was not in good condition, and she didn't know exactly what was going on with him or how serious it was.

Li Zhen cautiously responded, "Let me ask Yu Sheng first. If he comes, we'll amend the contract. If he can't make it, then forget it."

After hanging up, Li Zhen immediately went to the marketing department.

She was feeling rather uneasy.

She had originally thought it would take a year.

Before and even after she got pregnant, there was a possibility that Li Yinnan and Li Yanran would find out about her divorce from Yu Sheng and try to sabotage her.

Before getting the shares, the risk would remain high.

But now that she was pregnant, she could get the shares right away, which was like a very difficult game suddenly letting her pass straight through!

She arrived at the door. It was lunch break now, so there weren't many people in the marketing department.

Li Zhen strode towards Yu Sheng's office. When she got to the door, she happened to run into Zhao Yan coming out.

He was still holding that boxed meal.

Zhao Yan looked startled. "Li Zhen..."

Then his brows and eyes relaxed into a smile. "You came after all!"

Saying that, he handed the boxed meal he was holding to Li Zhen, his delighted expression vanishing in a flash as he sighed, "I just took this in to President Yu, but he still said he wouldn't eat. I've ordered some tomato shrimp soup takeout that hasn't arrived yet."

"Give it to me, I'll take it in." Li Zhen took the meal box and went inside.

Yu Sheng was bowing his head looking at documents. Hearing someone come in, he thought it was still Zhao Yan and didn't even lift his head, saying, "I won't eat it, don't make me say it a third time."

"Are you made of iron or steel?" Li Zhen put the meal box on the tea table.

Hearing her voice, a flash of astonishment crossed Yu Sheng's eyes. He lifted his head to look at Li Zhen.

He was silent for a moment.

In the end, he still got up.

He walked to the sofa and slowly sat down.

He glanced at the meal box, but really had no appetite.

The past two days, the infection in his wound had given him a 41 degree fever. Four or five doctors had stood vigil over him for two days and three nights at Jinlu Courtyard, and his fever had just broken past midnight last night.

This morning he had drunk some porridge.

The dishes in this meal box were relatively light, but just looking at it made him a little nauseous.

Li Zhen was too familiar with this subtle expression of distaste from him.

She opened the meal box and slid it in front of Yu Sheng, then put the water glass from his desk in front of him as well.

Yu Sheng glanced at Li Zhen. With a soft sigh in his heart, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Li Zhen sat silently, carefully observing Yu Sheng's condition. His face really was too pale, and he ate as if swallowing rocks one bite at a time.

What exactly was wrong with him?

If he really was sick, making him go to the Li's when he was in such poor health could be bad if it caused his condition to worsen.

Li Zhen thought about many things.

The office was very quiet, neither of them speaking.

After seven years together, they were long used to the silence.

When Yu Sheng had eaten half, Zhao Yan pushed the door and came in, carrying a takeout order.

He was surprised to see that Yu Sheng was actually eating, and thought to himself, I'll be damned...

As expected, Li Zhen could persuade him!

Zhao Yan hid his surprise, feigning composure as he set the takeout on the tea table. "President Yu, this is the tomato shrimp soup that Li Zhen ordered for you."

Having said that, he very tactfully turned and left.

Li Zhen was completely baffled!

She had just mentioned it in passing, what was this about her ordering for Yu Sheng!

Yu Sheng pushed aside the meal box, only drinking the shrimp soup.

After finishing it, he looked askance at Li Zhen. "Come to deliver another love letter?"

"What?" Li Zhen had been lost in thought, and was jolted alert hearing Yu Sheng speak. "Oh, no..."

She reacted, remembering the only other time she had come to his office was to deliver a love letter for Jiang Kening.

He was mocking her.

Li Zhen stood up and pursed her lips. "I just happened to be passing by to see how you were. Since you've finished eating, I'll go now."

Forget about going to the Li's.

She had never seen Yu Sheng looking so weak and frail before.

She couldn't force a sick person to go just for her own sake.

Although she really wanted those shares as soon as possible...

Li Zhen walked to the door, about to leave.

Yu Sheng also got up and walked towards his desk, his low voice saying, "Wait for me on the B2 level after work, we'll go together."

"Go together?" Li Zhen turned back in surprise.

"My father called me." Yu Sheng sat down, his attention already on the documents on his desk needing his signature. He waved his hand. "Go close the door on your way out."

Still confused, Li Zhen went out the door.

So Yu Sheng had known from the start why she came.

6pm.

Lu Yanming leaned against a car door in the B2 parking level.

His body was slightly tilted, posture languid and relaxed.

His slender, long-fingered hand took out his phone and sent Fei Zhao a message.

Lu Yanming: [? ]

Fei Zhao automatically translated his question with remarkable accuracy: Where are you?

Fei Zhao: [(Crying tiger emoji) Went out to buy coffee, line was longer than expected.]

Lu Yanming: [? ]

Fei Zhao understood his meaning: How much longer?

Fei Zhao: [Two minutes, Young Master! I'm at the entrance of the building!]

Lu Yanming put away his phone.

From the corner of his eye, he noticed someone.

It was Yu Sheng.

Yu Sheng often worked overtime, while Lu Yanming was usually very punctual, so they rarely ran into each other in the parking garage.

Noticing a gaze on him, Yu Sheng looked over and saw it was the new vice president.

The new vice president was currently pursuing Qiao Yi, who happened to be Li Zhen's good friend, so they might often have meals together in the future.

Their cars were only two parking spaces apart.

Yu Sheng walked up to his car and nodded at Lu Yanming. "President Lu."

"President Yu is leaving work early today." Lu Yanming's brows rose slightly, gaze as mellow as ever beneath the gold-rimmed glasses.

"I have plans tonight." Having answered, Yu Sheng then asked, "Is President Lu waiting for someone?"

"Waiting for my assistant."

"Assistant Fei is very capable. President Lu has a good eye for talent."

Lu Yanming's mouth quirked. "Not only do I have a good eye, I'm also very lucky and always manage to get the people I want."

"Then President Lu is fortunate."

Feeling he had made adequate small talk, Yu Sheng got into his car to wait for Li Zhen to come down.

Carrying coffee, Fei Zhao rushed into Macro Ocean Building like a gust of wind and jabbed the elevator button.

Ever since he had forgotten to conceal things in front of Li Zhen and she brought up Huayang Famous Family, the Young Master hadn't scolded him, but hadn't looked kindly on him since.

He lived out a daily performance of the humble assistant versus the Young Master's aloofness.

The elevator doors opened and the employees going to the first floor streamed out, leaving the elevator empty.

Fei Zhao got in and pressed for the B2 level, only then noticing there seemed to be someone else in the elevator who had been staring unpleasantly at him the whole time.

He turned back and gave a start. "Miss Li?"

"What a coincidence, Fei Zhao, Ace Detective." Li Zhen's red lips curled in a dazzling smile.

Hearing this form of address, Fei Zhao's scalp tingled.

He was done for...

This woman really knew how to be sarcastic!

The air in the elevator felt awkward to Fei Zhao.

After all, he had looked into her behind her back, which was no different from surveillance, so Fei Zhao couldn't say anything when the person involved was mocking him.

Fei Zhao laughed awkwardly, trying to get on her good side. "Miss Li, what are you doing going to B2? You live so close, why not just walk home?"

Having said that, he hurriedly took a drink of coffee to calm his shock.

"Looks like Ace Detective Fei didn't investigate me today, I'm relieved." Li Zhen chuckled and glanced at him, casually saying, "My ex-husband is waiting for me. We're going back to my parents' place tonight."

"Sounds good, going to your parents' with your ex-husband..." Fei Zhao took another drink of coffee and nodded.

The next second, coffee sprayed from his mouth...

He exclaimed, "With your ex-husband?!"

That was Yu Sheng waiting for her downstairs!

On B2...

Help, the Young Master was down there too!
