。Seeing this, I already had a bottom line in my heart. Besides Zhuo Yunan, no one else would come. At that time, when she went on a self-driving tour with her mother, she forgot to change the passwor...Yet, his voice was still hoarse, dizzyingly so. She blushed quietly.

"I can't, why don't you ask Sister Cui for help at the year-end party" She answered truthfully, thinking that she would go find Lin Zhifei next time to learn properly.

He went all in, saying what he said and then let go of his tie. His arm was aching from lifting it up so high.

"Good." Zhu Yu'an extended his hands and fastened the knot in a few moves.

"He could tie it himself, couldn't he Why did he need her help" She glared at him, and he laughed. This time, instead of reaching for her tie, he circled her waist with one hand and pulled her into his arms. With the other hand, he cupped her face and leaned down to kiss her, seriously and intently.

Kissing, Shu Tinglan's eyes were dazzled and he was mesmerized. He couldn't help but reach out with both hands to hug him, pulling the two closer together.

Zuo Yu'an stiffened, gently pushing her away. His breathing was a little ragged as he said:

“I’m going to be late. I’ll have my driver take you home.”

"Okay." She kept her head down, her heart still racing. Once her heart stopped resisting him, it would be tossed about by his every move.

As he walked out of the locker room and past the training field, he suddenly whispered in her ear.

“Would you like to learn fencing with me in the future and get some exercise”

Shu Tinglan looked at him, puzzled. She knew she always hated sports.

He smirked: "Too weak, can't take the pressure."

Before Shu Tinglan could react to what he meant, he was already gone.

The timing was perfect. As the annual meeting progressed, all the performance programs had just ended and the host took to the stage to speak: "Now, let's welcome Mr. Zhuo, CEO of Zhuo Yuan Technology Group, to give a speech."

In the waves of applause, all the spotlights and eyes followed Zhuo Yunan as he strode onto the stage in a suit. His gaze was composed yet resolute, and his innate pride and nobility were on full display at this moment.

He was always serious and never smiled at work. When he stood on the podium, he just glanced briefly at the audience below, and the room instantly fell silent.

Sister Cui had the technical team project the speech onto the big screen. This one was done by Fu Shenyi's assistant. The background used is the vast cosmos, with a 3D effect. It displays all of Zhuoyuan Technology's high-tech products from the entire year, seemingly floating in mid-air. And Zhu Yu stands among them, the master of this universe. He closes a product with his hand after introducing each one.

For every product, he could explain the features in the simplest language. The last one was a small, miniature robot designed specifically as a companion for children.

He originally designed this product for his own children, so the cost was very high. He estimated that the market acceptance would not be high. As a result, at the end of the year, he tried to launch it on his official website, and the response was amazing. Many customers placed pre-orders, and it is highly likely to become a popular product next year.

When introducing this product, Zhuo Yuan's tone was much softer than before, and he presented every detail to everyone in person.

The person on stage was speaking eloquently, and the audience was fully engaged in what they were saying.

Sister Cui sometimes admires his ability to improvise. This was done for Fu Shenyi on the spot and sent to him at the last minute. He probably only glanced at it in the car, but he could recite every step and data without any mistakes.

This is not only his extraordinary memory, but also the result of his hard work over time.

Lu Kuo, this table is all investors of Zhuoyuan Technology. Every time they see Zhuo Yu'an, it's like seeing a money tree. Zhuoyuan Technology is the most brilliant stroke in their investment career, and because of this, they have the capital to thrive in the capital market.

Li Anna's heart was pounding even more. The excitement Lu Kuo had stirred up in her hadn't calmed down yet, and now seeing Zhuo Yuran again sent her into another wave of exhilaration. She thought to herself, "This is why elite people should befriend other elites." After all, that's what she'd been striving for her whole life—to transcend social barriers and enter this circle.

Attending the conference gave her the illusion that her dreams were within reach.

The speaker on stage had finished their speech, and as usual, the last page would simply read "Thank you." So Zhuo Yu'an took the revised version from Ting Lan without flipping to the last page.

At this moment, two large characters "Thank You" floated on the huge screen behind him. In the lower right corner, where Fu Shenyi's name had been, it was now covered by two popular internet meme expressions: raised eyebrows and a big laugh. The memes were set rather large, the yellow, round smiling faces looking particularly strange. The whole page suddenly felt out of place, starkly contrasting with Zhuo Yunan's previous speech. It seemed like an act of mischief by the assistant.

Sister Cui's face turned cold as she looked at the assistant, who wore an innocent expression. She had simply changed Mr. Fu's name to Mr. Zhuo's before sending it to Sister Cui. She didn't have the guts to send a serious emoji pack.

On the results stage, Zhuo Yu'an saw these two emoticons and was taken aback for a moment. Then, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips that was almost imperceptible. Who else could it be Only Ting Lan would dare to do this harmless prank.

A smile spread across his face, and just before the screen behind him shut off, a glimpse of his smiling face flashed, a mixture of resignation and doting. The crowd was in an uproar; it turned out that even Mr. Zhuo wasn't always so serious.

Only Lu Kuo, who was offstage, muttered coldly in his heart: He's doing it again!

Since Zhuo Yu'an came to the annual meeting, he inevitably had to deal with various social engagements. These were people he couldn't avoid meeting, so after a round of socializing, he returned home at 12 midnight.

He thought Li Lan and the children were already asleep, but as soon as he opened the door, several warm yellow floor lamps were lit. He subconsciously searched for Li Lan's shadow. After taking a few steps, he saw her drinking water at the bar in the dining room. She had her hair down, wearing a plain-colored nightgown, and was barefoot. Her skin was very white and slender. Because she had just drunk water, her lips seemed moist.

She bore no marks of childbirth, save perhaps a touch more allure than before, even more captivating. Zhuo Yu'an had drunk a few glasses of wine earlier and wasn't thirsty, but now seeing her, he suddenly felt parched.

Shu Tinglan didn't expect such a coincidence. She had gone to bed early with the children today and was halfway through her sleep when she woke up thirsty because the warm air in the room was too strong. Just as she came out to drink some water, she heard the sound of the door opening. He was back.
