Su Chen was montarily startled when he heard Du Hanshuang's words, and he let go of her involuntarily.
"Exactly, it must be you!"
After regaining her freedom, Du Hanshuang didn't rush forward but stared intently at Su Chen's face as she spoke, though her words seed more for her own affirmation.
She had often seen her sister holding a photograph, quietly lost in sorrow, her expression lonely. She had also caught glimpses of that photograph.
It featured a man, or to be precise, a man's profile.
The man had distinct features, with a slightly mischievous smile on his face, projecting a sowhat cynical air.
She had once asked her sister who he was, but her sister just sighed and said nothing.
Although her sister said nothing, Du Hanshuang had rembered that profile.
Just a mont ago, when Su Chen revealed a mischievous smile, Du Hanshuang, looking from the side, was surprised to discover that he looked exactly like the man in her sister's photograph.
No wonder that day at the tea house, she thought he looked vaguely familiar. That explains it.
"What's your sister's na?"
Su Chen, slightly puzzled, tilted his head. He wasn't sure if he was the man this young girl was referring to, because he had indeed entangled himself in nurous affairs in the past.
"Du Hanbing!"
Looking at Su Chen's face, Du Hanshuang said word by word:
"Do you still rember this na?"
"You are Hanbing's sister?"
Su Chen suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief, then his expression grew lancholic.
Du Hanbing—how could he forget that na?
It was a na etched into his marrow, flowing in his blood!
They had fought side by side for over two years, countless tis skirting the edge of danger, comforting and relying on each other!
But later, due to certain reasons, he had to leave that place, departing without saying goodbye to anyone!
They probably still bla to this day! Especially Hanbing, she must hate by now!
He was not unaware of Du Hanbing's affection for him, but the place they were in simply did not allow such feelings to arise!
"Is Hanbing, doing well?"
Su Chen asked hesitantly, his voice low and hoarse, as if sothing was choking his throat.
"You really are that man!"
With a burst of excitent, Du Hanshuang blurted out, previously even the greatest certainty was just a conjecture, but now this man's words had confird her guess!
Du Hanshuang couldn't understand, what sort of person was her sister? To say she was a crucial national asset wouldn't be an exaggeration, so how could she be entangled with this ordinary driver?
Who exactly is this ordinary driver?
At this mont, Du Hanshuang had completely forgotten her initial intention to reproach Su Chen for deceiving her, her mind filled only with questions about who Su Chen really was and what his relationship was with her sister.
She was certain that this man must have had an extraordinary relationship with her sister!
That much was obvious, or why else would her sister hold his photograph in sadness?
Trusting her intuition, Du Hanshuang was almost certain that this man was her sister's lover!
"Are you my brother-in-law?"
Being rather straightforward, Du Hanshuang voiced her thoughts.
This question, however, took Su Chen by surprise, and he shook his head slightly:
"No."
"Does my sister like you?"
Du Hanshuang pressed on, her pretty face full of curiosity.
But this question left Su Chen wondering how to respond, as any answer seed incorrect.
"Perhaps!" Su Chen said hesitantly.
"What do you an, 'perhaps'? I guess it must be," Du Hanshuang seed sowhat dissatisfied with Su Chen's answer, "You don't know, I've seen my sister staring at your photograph, just staring blankly, like a mummy!"
Hanshuang's words made Su Chen fall silent, feeling as if his heart was being pressed by a large stone, making it hard for him to breathe.
"So, do you like my sister?"
Hanshuang spoke up again; because of her sister Hanbing, she now regarded Su Chen with a sense of kinship. The displeasures of the past seed less important!
This question made it even harder for Su Chen to respond, so he changed the subject:
"Since you are Hanbing's sister, let's just call off our past disagreents! Okay, you go on with your tasks, I need to get to work."
Having said that, Su Chen headed toward the Belle Building.
"No, you have to tell !"

Hanshuang couldn't easily let go of the man her sister had been longing for.
"My sister is so beautiful, you wouldn't believe how many people in Yandu like her! You must like her too, right?"
"Also, why aren't you two together? Is there so reason?"
...
Hanshuang followed behind Su Chen, rattling off a barrage of questions like a little sparrow.
"Where do you get all these questions from? Go busy yourself!"
Su Chen flicked Hanshuang's forehead with his finger, expressing his headache.
After speaking, he quickened his pace and ran into the Belle Building, leaving Hanshuang behind as she didn't pursue him after seeing him reluctant to answer any of her questions.
She then clenched her small pink fists while watching Su Chen's retreating figure:
"Hmph, I will figure out what happened between you and my sister!"
Then she turned and left, imdiately making a phone call as soon as she sat in the car.
"I'm going to share this good news with my sister right now; she will definitely be thrilled to hear it!"
However, "beep" sound ca from the other end of the phone before it went to voicemail.
"Ah, she must be on a mission again. I'll just have to wait until she cos back to tell her."
Hanshuang sighed, then stepped on the gas and drove back.
.....
Upon entering the Belle Building, Su Chen didn't head to the security departnt but directly took the elevator to Lin Ruoxue's office.
Kidding aside, Lin Ruoxue was so angry earlier that he had to explain things to her first—after all, she is his wife!
The secretary outside, Chen Guo, wasn't surprised to see Su Chen approaching; after all, this guy was almost always coming here once or twice a day.
And from her observation, this guy had quite an unusual relationship with the CEO!
Almost every ti after seeing him, the CEO would show so emotional changes, sotis for the better, sotis for the worse.
It must be noted, making the normally serious Lin Ruoxue emotionally fluctuate like this was no small feat.
"President Lin, are you there?"
Su Chen called out tentatively from outside the door.
"President Lin, are you there?"
Seeing no response from inside, Su Chen called out again.
Chen Guo found this scene sowhat surprising; after all, this guy usually barged right in. What made him suddenly so polite today?
But the CEO was inside—why wasn't she responding?
"President Lin, I'm coming in, okay?"
Seeing no answer from Lin Ruoxue, Su Chen knew she had to be angry, which made him even more determined to clarify everything.
Then, nervously gripping the doorknob, Su Chen slowly pushed open the door, but just as he had opened it halfway, there ca a roar from Lin Ruoxue.
"Get out!"
The following mont, a folder ca flying over...
Lin Ruoxue's outburst also took Chen Guo by surprise; she had never seen Lin Ruoxue lose her temper like that!
