Chapter 388: Uninvited Guest at the Door

"Understood," Yi Lixing smiled and stood up, walking towards the door. "If you don't mind, I'll take a half-hour stroll around your company. I'll come back in half an hour."

"No need," Mr. Huangpu quickly interjected. "Just sit here; we'll go out and talk for a bit, and that'll be enough."

Yi Lixing made a 'please' gesture, then left with a politely restrained smile.

The couple walked towards the door. With the sound of a door opening, they were about to step out but both froze in place. Mrs. Huangpu, who was a step behind, had a drastic change in complexion and anxiously began, "Su Cheng, why did you come here?"

Yi Lixing, who was sitting on the sofa, turned his head towards the door at these words. Through the light casting from the doorway, he could indeed see someone standing outside, quite tall and thin, but due to the angle, the face wasn't clear.
