Holy Crap! My Cat is Actually a Female CEO?!

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Countdown? Yan Luoxi’s Decision

"This..."

Seeing his insistence, his colleagues didn’t press the matter.

"Alright then, we’ll go eat first. You should hurry back and look for it!"

"I’ll send you the location in a bit. If you find it, come over right away. We’ll wait for you!"

"Also, if you need anything, just give us a call!" said Chen Dong, a group leader in Financial Analysis Department Two, patting his shoulder.

"Okay!"

Gu Yizhou nodded.

The time then struck six in the evening.

Because of the planned company dinner tonight, the office emptied out in an instant.

Seeing this, Gu Yizhou also tidied up his desk, grabbed his backpack, and left.

The moment he walked out of the office, a tall, curvaceous figure appeared in a nearby corner, watching him with a complex expression...

"Huh?"

"President Yan?"

Lin Yuanqing, the supervisor of Financial Department Two, was just about to leave for the day when he suddenly saw Yan Luoxi appear in their department’s area. He sounded shocked.

Hearing the voice, Yan Luoxi’s expression instantly returned to normal. She glanced back at the department supervisor, her face impassive.

Seeing it really was his own president, Lin Yuanqing hurriedly scurried over.

"President Yan, is there something you need from Department Two?"

he asked, his voice tinged with excitement.

As a minor supervisor in the finance division, he only saw President Yan Luoxi occasionally and had never had the chance to speak with her.

It couldn’t be helped!

His rank was too low!

So, seeing Yan Luoxi now, how could he not be thrilled!

’If President Yan remembers me, my career will be set!’ he schemed inwardly.

"It’s nothing."

Yan Luoxi said, her tone cool and flat.

Without waiting for Lin Yuanqing to respond, she turned and walked toward the elevators.

’It’s nothing?’

"Uh..."

Lin Yuanqing stared at his president’s retreating back, utterly baffled.

Suddenly, Yan Luoxi stopped. She turned her head to look at Lin Yuanqing and asked, "You’re the supervisor of Financial Department Two?"

"Ah?"

Hearing Yan Luoxi suddenly turn back and speak to him, Lin Yuanqing froze for a moment. When he snapped out of it, he nodded excitedly. "Yes, yes! That’s right! I’m the supervisor of Financial Department Two. My name is Lin Yuanqing."

"Mm... your department has an intern named Gu Yizhou, correct?"

Yan Luoxi asked, her face calm.

Her cool, stunningly beautiful face betrayed no emotion.

"Gu Yizhou...?"

Lin Yuanqing paused.

He thought for a moment. It seemed there really was such a person.

After all, Financial Department Two was large and had many employees. He usually only dealt with the group leaders, so he didn’t have a clear memory of all the individual team members.

The only reason he remembered Gu Yizhou was that the intern was ridiculously handsome—so handsome you couldn’t forget him after a single glance. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t recall having someone like that in his department.

"Yes, President Yan."

Lin Yuanqing nodded quickly.

"Make him a full-time employee tomorrow."

Yan Luoxi said.

Without waiting for Lin Yuanqing to process this, she stepped into the elevator and left.

"Uh..."

’Did President Yan just tell me to make the intern Gu Yizhou a full-time employee ahead of schedule?’

It was only after the elevator doors closed that Lin Yuanqing finally processed what had happened.

"Holy shit!!"

’Does Gu Yizhou know President Yan?’

He felt like he had just stumbled upon a massive secret!

「In the underground parking garage.」

"Riding my beloved little scooter, it’ll never get stuck in traffic..."

"VROOM VROOM... VROOM VROOM..."

Gu Yizhou hummed an insanely catchy song from his past life while starting up his beat-up, second-hand motorcycle.

With a roar of the engine, Gu Yizhou’s figure quickly vanished from the underground garage...

Not long after he left, the ice queen CEO, Yan Luoxi, also appeared in the parking garage.

She walked straight to a Rolls-Royce Phantom, got in, and closed her eyes to rest.

As she settled into her seat, the car slowly drove out of the underground garage...

A little while later, she suddenly spoke to her assistant, Bai Jie, who was in the front seat. "Assistant Bai, have you taken care of the matter I asked you about?"

Her tone was flat, yet it carried a coldness that kept everyone at a distance.

Fortunately, Bai Jie was used to her attitude and tone. She replied with the utmost respect, "President Yan, I followed your instructions today and purchased the apartment at Binjiang Mansion No. 1 District—Building 7, Unit 3, Room 306. And, just as you requested, it’s been stocked with enough clothes for an entire year and the refrigerator is filled with a month’s worth of food."

That’s right!

Yan Luoxi had her assistant buy the apartment right next to Gu Yizhou’s.

Originally, she had never wanted to go anywhere near Gu Yizhou’s place for the rest of her life!

But!

After her government meeting this morning, Yan Luoxi was suddenly struck by a very strong feeling: she was going to turn into a cat again!

Her time as a cat was also her most vulnerable. If she were injured or killed during that period, her human self would truly die!

Then came another feeling: the only safe place for her when she turned into a cat was by Gu Yizhou’s side!

That was why she had her assistant buy the apartment next to his.

Of course, all of this was done in secret!

"Mm... what about the door lock? Did you change it to one that a cat can open just by jumping on it?"

Yan Luoxi asked.

"Yes, President Yan. The lock was changed to one made of a lightweight metal, just as you asked. The exterior has an iris-and-fingerprint scanner, while the interior has a lever handle that a cat can open simply by jumping on it. And, as you instructed, a small, unlocked window was added to the balcony railing."

Bai Jie reported to Yan Luoxi with a respectful expression.

Although she had been puzzled by her boss’s strange instructions, she hadn’t asked any questions.

After all, as a professional assistant, she possessed the basic professional sense to know what to ask and what not to ask.

Especially after so many years with Yan Luoxi, she knew her personality very well: no matter what, her job was simply to listen to orders and execute them.

"Good!"

Yan Luoxi nodded, then lifted her gaze to her assistant. "No one else knows about this, right?"

"Right!"

"Besides you and I, President Yan, no one else knows."

Bai Jie said, nodding quickly.

"Good."

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi said no more.

Because that feeling of turning into a cat had suddenly returned!

Yes!

This time, she could clearly feel in her mind that she was about to turn into a cat at any moment. The sensation was unlike any before—it was exceptionally strong!

"TICK-TOCK... TICK-TOCK..."

It was as if a voice in Yan Luoxi’s ear was reminding her that the countdown to her transformation had begun...
