Making her feel at home.

Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes and clarified, “She’s not just a guest, remember that. Ms. Qiao is not a guest, she’s the lady boss around here.”

The head of Human Resources immediately looked up when she heard these words and stared at Qiao Lian in astonishment.

She gulped, nodded in shock and replied, “Yes, Mr. Lu. I’ll remember that!”

Lu Nanze nodded satisfactorily. He turned around and glanced at Qiao Lian with a devilish smile on his face. With his hands stuck into his pockets, he exuded an evil charm as he walked languidly towards the director’s elevator.

After Lu Nanze had left, the head of Human Resources looked at Qiao Lian and asked, “Ms. Qiao, what would you like to do now? I’ll take you! You can visit any part of the office.”

Qiao Lian was speechless.

She smiled awkwardly and nodded at the woman.

Then she looked at the access card in her hand.

Although this card would give her access to all locations, perhaps even including the penthouse, as a new employee, if she tried to go up, she would surely be stopped by the surveillance team before she got there.

As much as she wanted to get her hands on the account book, being too rash wouldn’t help her achieve her objective.

She decided to hold back.

Hence, looking back at the head of Human Resources, she said, “Let’s go and meet the casters.”

After they had walked away, the girls at the reception immediately gathered around.

They huddled together and whispered to each other, “Did you see that? Big boss just said she’s the lady boss! Is that the future Mrs. Lu?”

“Holy moley, what sort of background does this woman have, to actually conquer our big boss the moment she appears?!”

“I heard she’s a female caster, that Love Chuan!”

“Ah, no wonder the company allocated almost all resources to her when she became a caster. So this is the reason! It’s easy to get benefits when one is pretty.”

“What do you know? ” An older staff member said, “That is the daughter of the Qiao family! She and Mr. Lu were childhood sweethearts, they grew up together.”

“What? Really? They were actually childhood sweethearts? Ahhhhh! Tell me more!”

“…”

At once, the famous personality Qiao Lian became a legend before everyone had even met her.

Noon time.

In the management meeting room.

Normally during this hour, the workaholic Lu Nanze would continue working and skip lunch if he hadn’t gotten through his work.

But today, he behaved differently. Interrupting the person on the phone, he got to his feet and said, “It’s lunch time. Whatever it is, we’ll talk in the afternoon.”

Everyone was flabbergasted.

Even after he had left the office, the people sat there looking at each other in dismay.

Someone asked, “What’s the matter with him?”

“I heard that our Mr. Lu brought a girl to the office. Word even has it that she might be the new lady boss So has he gone off to have lunch with his woman?”

At these words, everyone started laughing.

“Indeed, once the man has a family, everything changes! See? His heart aches for his wife. And our lives will be better because of it.”

“That’s right! We don’t have to starve from now on. But that can’t be right. Isn’t director Lu involved in some kind of relationship with Qiao Yiyi? This—”

“What do you know? If Director Lu really liked that Qiao Yiyi, he’d have married her by now and not leave her hanging. When have you ever seen Director Lu interrupt a meeting for Qiao Yiyi?”

“Well, if that is the case, then this time round it’s for real.”
