When Lu Xinyi was done changing her clothes, she stared back at her reflection in the mirror inside the changing room. Instead of seeing her usual face, a man was staring back at her. Why did she look like a man though?

What was her brother-in-law planning this time?

Checking the time on her phone, she was disappointed to see that Shen Yi hadn’t responded to her messages yet. She then stepped out of the changing room and adjusted the collar of her black coat and buried her hands at the side pockets of her pants. The white dress shirt was able to conceal her bound chest and slim body.

As soon as she stepped out, time suddenly slowed down as the women gawked at her stupidly. Seeing Lu Xinyi’s annoyed expression, Xia Yuhan couldn’t stop herself from bursting into laughter.

Her Boss Xinxin had turned herself into a man within an hour.

“Boss! You look so charming! Do you mind asking you for a date later?” Xia Yuhan winked at Lu Xinyi.

As she said those words, some of the shoppers blushed when they met Lu Xinyi’s gaze. Unlike Shen Xue, Lu Xinyi as a man was charming and such a pleasant to one’s eyes. She had the kind of face that stopped one in their tracks to take a second look.

The masculine clothes that Xia Yuhan lent her had smartly concealed her chest, not that she was endowed on that part anyway. Her long tresses were concealed using a short messy ash blonde wig that compliments the softness of her facial features. With her noticeable messy hair and wide and expressive eyes, it was easy for Lu Xinyi to get the attention of other women.

Standing beside Vice President Shen, Lu Xinyi was able to take the attention of the women inside her store.

“Why am I dressed like this?” Lu Xinyi scowled at Shen Xue. She still didn’t have an idea of what was going on.

“I’m really Xiao Xinxin, but you really have to do this. Please help me convince CEO Wang and his daughter to seal the deal.” Shen Xue begged her with puppy eyes.

“And why should I crossdress as a man?” Lu Xinyi lifted a brow on him.

“Because CEO Wang doesn’t want to talk and deal with a woman but I’m not bringing you to talk with him. I need you to convince Wang Zhuyi to forget about my brother. The only reason why we couldn’t seal this deal is that she’s infatuated with your husband.”

“Ohhh…”

She easily picked up what he meant but was this the best option he could think off?

Lu Xinyi hadn’t had time to ask him for Shen Xue had pulled her arm and lead her back to his car. Ten minutes later, they arrived at Shen Group headquarters which was situated at the heart of Capital City’s business district.

She looked around, impressed at how modern and slick they Shen Building was. The colors were what she’d expected from her husband; black, gray and white. As she followed Shen Xue inside, the other employees couldn’t help but check her out… as a man.

At 9 AM, they arrived in time and was greeted by Shen Xue’s secretary at the hallway. His eyes flew wide open in shock. He was startled to see a beautiful…? Wait, would that be appropriate to describe the man behind his boss?

“Are we late?” Shen Xue asked, breaking the spell on his secretary.

Secretary Chang coughed on his hand being caught off guard with his boss’ guest. It was rare for the Shen brothers to be seen with friends or acquaintances. Thinking about it, Secretary Chang couldn’t remember seeing Shen Xue bring a friend with him at work.

“Vice President, CEO Wang and his daughter are waiting for you. About your guest…”

Lu Xinyi can’t come with Shen Xue, right?

“Forget it. I’m bringing him with me.” Shen Xue walked past his secretary and lead Lu Xinyi at their private elevator.

When the elevator reached the highest floor, all of the employees stood up to greet Shen Xue. Assistant Qiao He was caught off guard when he saw Young Madam walking around their workplace as a man.

Why was his Young Madam disguising herself as a man? Was Boss Yi aware of this?

He was glad that he wasn’t drinking or anything at the moment or else he’ll be choked to death.

The other employees stopped working and lifted their heads up to see who was with their Vice President. When Lu Xinyi met their confused gazes, she gave them a flirty wink and walked casually behind Shen Xue.

One of the several secretaries working on Shen Yi’s department clenched her chest from the sudden peak of her heartbeat.

“Oh my god! Who’s that hottie?! Did you see that? He winked on me!”

“What are you talking about?! He sure was looking on my way when he winked!” Her seatmate objected.

Secretary Chang opened one of the conference room and let Shen Xue and Lu Xinyi slipped inside. When CEO Wang and Wang Zhuyi saw them, they also stood to greet the newcomers.

“I’m sorry for being late CEO Wang. I have matters to attend earlier,” Shen Xue said. “Please have a seat,”

Lu Xinyi tried her best not to roll her eyes. What matters? The way he forced her to crossdress so she can manipulate her rival to give up on her husband?

Shen Xue took a seat, bringing Lu Xinyi to sit beside him. Lu Xinyi threw him a deadly glare but he ignored it and loosen his tie instead. Now, he somewhat understands why his brother hates ties down in his core. They were suffocating at times like this.

“Have you been waiting for too long?”

The Old CEO Wang shook his head then eyed the ash blond-haired pretty boy that was sitting beside Shen Xue. His eyes narrowed when the light hit the round silver earring on Lu Xinyi’s left ear. In her hurry, she forgot to remove her earring.

“No, we also just arrived,” His almost protruding eyes turned to his daughter who was blushing profusely while looking at the handsome man beside Vice President Shen. “I see you have a guest. May we know who is he?”

Secretary Chang’s lips tightened. He was also curious to know who was this handsome man that his boss tagged with him.

“Oh, this one is my younger brother,” Shen Xue said nonchalantly, patting Lu Xinyi’s messy hair which she easily slapped away.

“Younger brother?” Just when did Shen Xue have a younger brother?

It was known that he only have Shen Yi as a brother and they never heard Shen Huang fathering another son out of wedlock. So who is this man then?

Secretary Chang almost choked on his own breath when he heard what Shen Xue said. Younger brother?

“Brother Xue, how dare you ruin my hairstyle in front of a beautiful woman? Are you trying to sabotage my chances to meet her properly?” Lu Xinyi’s voice wasn’t feminine at all, surprising Shen Xue.

It sounded like a smooth baritone, clean and calm. The woman sitting across Lu Xinyi lowly gasped at the sudden compliment she received from Lu Xinyi.

“Oh? A very close friend then? What should we call you? Is your family also into business?” CEO Wang asked curiously. After all, if this young man was related to other wealthy families then he should be able to make a connection with him.

“Oh, no,” Lu Xinyi shook her head. “My family isn’t into business.” she replied.

It was true. In her family, she only has her husband who was savvy at business but she and her parents were never into it.

“As for my family name, my surname is Lu. A very common one.”

When CEO Wang heard that her surname was ‘Lu’, his face scrunched up with a frown.

“Lu? Please don’t tell me you are related to that woman?” He muttered under his breath but Shen Xue and Lu Xinyi were able to hear it.

“Is there something wrong with my surname?” Lu Xinyi’s eyes flashed dangerously.

Wang Zhuyi had been paying attention to Lu Xinyi since they stepped inside the room. This man’s playful aura had suddenly turned cold when her idiot of a father couldn’t stop his tongue. She lifted her head and bravely confronted Lu Xinyi, aware that her cheeks were tinted with a blush.

She couldn’t understand what she was feeling at that moment. When she first met Shen Yi, she was rendered speechless by his handsome and masculine features but this young handsome man in front of her was something else!

When Lu Xinyi smiled at her, Wang Zhuyi felt her heart leaped in her throat with her hands sweating coldly.

“There’s nothing wrong with your surname, Brother Lu,” she said weakly, “He just heard some rumors about President Shen dating a woman with the same surname. Please don’t get offended.”

Lu Xinyi’s coldness dissipated upon Wang Zhuyi’s words.

“How can I say no to a beautiful woman like Miss Wang? It’s alright, there’s no harm done.”

The blush on Wang Zhuyi’s cheeks was instantaneous.

“Thank you, Mister Lu…”

“Lu Feiran, that’s my name. You can use my name but I hope you won’t get tired of it.”
