"President Pei, any idea what’s going on with the boss today? Why did he call me over too?" As she spoke, Li Li checked her makeup in a small compact, putting it away only after confirming it hadn’t smudged.

"I’m not too clear on the details myself. I just got a message from the boss last night telling us both to come to his place today." Pei Rang shrugged. He unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car, not forgetting to grab the bulging briefcase from the back seat.

In fact, Pei Rang had been wondering about this himself. Last night, besides telling him and Li Li to come over in the afternoon, the boss had also instructed him to bring along the files on all the company’s current subsidiaries.

This left him puzzled. ’If he just wanted to review the changes in the subsidiaries after they acquired new technologies, there would’ve been no need to specifically call Li Li over too.’

The two had barely taken a few steps when they heard a clear voice call out from behind them, "President Pei, Lili!"

Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Pei Rang and Li Li quickly turned around. They saw Zong Xinyao getting out of an executive sedan and striding quickly toward them.

"Xinyao! You’re back too! Why didn’t you call? We could’ve arranged for someone to pick you up," Li Li said, her face lighting up with pleasant surprise as she hurried to greet her good friend.

As one of the company’s most senior employees, Li Li had started in a secretarial role. She had been through a lot during the company’s early days, and since she and Zong Xinyao often worked together, they had naturally grown quite close over time.

"The boss gave me last-minute notice late last night. It was all so rushed, I didn’t want to call and bother you." Zong Xinyao’s words were meant for both Li Li and Pei Rang.

After all, both of them were now in charge of their own companies. It would have seemed improper to specifically call Pei Rang or Li Li just to arrange for a car, and it would have attracted unwanted attention.

People would wonder, ’Why did the boss summon you all the way back from the Imperial Capital? Is there something important he needs you to do?’ It would inevitably lead to speculation.

So, Zong Xinyao hadn’t called anyone upon her return—not even the "Goat Village" branch here in Shanghai.

What Zong Xinyao hadn’t expected, however, was to run into Pei Rang and Li Li here. She, too, began to wonder what was going on. ’Why would the boss summon all three of us?’

Pei Rang and Zong Xinyao were full of questions, but Li Li remained perfectly composed. Perhaps she knew more than she let on; otherwise, she wouldn’t have become the personal secretary to the head of the Louis Vuitton Group’s Asia-Pacific region at such a young age.

The three exchanged brief pleasantries before taking the elevator directly to the top floor where Su Chen lived.
