Contract Marriage: Emperor CEO's Secretary Wife Chapter 259 - Smiling President Lu

Chapter 259 - Smiling President Lu

Of course, no matter how much Lu Chen desperately wants to stay beside his wife from now on, he was still kicked out by Xiu Mei forcing him to attend work today. It was a deal in exchange that she would properly rest at home without complaint if he goes to work today.
Lu Chen informed the butler about the current situation, along with calling back Lee In to be her bodyguard again even at home. Since he still wasn't assured whether one of Albert's men was able to slip without their knowledge.
Because of her mild fever, Xiu Mei had no choice but to rest on her bed today. Before fully investing herself into resting, she quickly compiled all the work she was supposed to do today and sent it over to her assistant and Lu Shao. She had even forwarded the resignation letter email to Lu Shao, which she somehow felt strange considering that they should be firing him instead of letting him resign on her own.
Anyways, it's a weird picture overall and she couldn't exactly pinpoint which of the two was stranger given the circ.u.mstances.
Xiu Mei didn't stay long in front of her computer, worried that the radiation will affect the fetus in her stomach.
She picked up the pregnancy test box that was delivered to her by the butler, which she received with a flushed face in embarrassment.
Skimming through the instructions, she went to the bathroom and found herself staying there longer than she intended.
Almost an hour later, Xiu Mei stood in front of the sink. The pregnancy stick in one hand while staring at it in a trance.
Xiu Mei staring wide-eyed at the two lines on the stick: ….
Now only her blood result was left before she could finally register it in her hand that now, she's already on her journey to nine months of hell. After making sure that she wasn't hallucinating, she let out a deep breath while looking at her reflection in the mirror.
She pulled up her shirt and stared at her flat stomach. In less than a few months later, this flat stomach would be no more. And the cramps, cravings, and mood swings will peak. Aaaahhhh!
If awhile ago she was still in the state of disbelief, then right now she was in the state of panic as reality finally dawned upon her.
Getting pregnant is no joke, and the labor pain and giving birth are the things she never imagined that she would face so soon at this age. Heck, she wasn't even sure if she was already doing a proper job in being Lu Qiang's mother yet now she has another child to take care of and worry about?!
While Xiu Mei was having a mental breakdown in the bathroom, the department directors of Lu Corporation are currently experiencing a weird phenomenon during their meeting with their mighty president slash emperor Lu.
"And the sales went down by 1.67%...." The person in front spoke in a low voice as he cautiously continued the status report that was supposed to be presented to Xiu Mei instead of the President.
It was during this kind of times that they thought they were lucky to present to the Secretary instead of the cold President but what terrible luck to have when the person who entered the conference room wasn't their strict yet kind Secretary Xiu but the cold and sharp mouthed President Lu.
They were crying in their hearts. They were also cursing the person behind the stock trading suspension incident. Because of that person, their workload increased and now they have to present it to the fire-breathing dragon in front of them.
An hour into the meeting, all the directors have relieved expression at the same time, they were all puzzled with the strange peace within the room. Though the President is actually a very reasonable person that wouldn't punish someone just because he didn't like their performance, the president was always cold and would rarely open his mouth either to praise or criticize someone.
They were all used to this kind of setup for so many years that it was so strange seeing President Lu with his lips slightly curled up and he didn't frown even after listening to the negative impact brought by the stock trading suspension days ago.
It wasn't their fault so it was a valid reason that the President wasn't angry at them, but he was smiling so strangely that they were scared that he was going to say something ominous by the end of the meeting but surprisingly, he didn't.
After spending almost 2 hours listening to all their reports, he casually voiced out his comments and instructions before walking out in a seemingly very good mood.
Xiu Mei's assistant who attended on behalf of Secretary Xiu was stopped by the Directors.
"What's wrong with the President ah?" the Finance Director asked with a strange look on his face.
Of course, Secretary Xiu's assistant didn't have a clue at all. "Unfortunately, I don't know what's happening with the President as well ah. He came late in the morning already like that."
PR Director: "I don't know if I should feel relieved that we avoided the eye of the storm but I'm having goosebumps right now."
Operations Director: "Same here. I almost thought that it was some kind of evil grin as if he was about to throw another project at us but he didn't say anything at all ah. Rather, was it probably a smile that means we would have a bonus this month?"
Finance Director: "A bonus for what? For not messing up the report awhile ago?"
And so, the mystery as to why the President was in a good mood appeared in the company forum with all the employees commenting their guesses as to why the President was like that.
At the President's office, Lu Chen called over Lu Shao.
"Purchase the best brands of this stuff on this list. Keep it discreet and don't let anyone know." Lu Chen simply ordered handing over a piece of paper.
Lu Shao quickly skimmed on the list but was instantly stupefied on the spot.
Radiation Shield for Desktop
Prenatal Vitamins
Clothes with Radiation protection
Lu Shao wasn't stupid. This…. Are things that a pregnant person would need.
His mind malfunction for a second before he quickly caught understood something.
This list came from the President.
Secretary Xiu is currently on sick leave.
The President is in a good mood even after the meeting.
…..fudge.
It took almost all Lu Shao's self-control to suppress his excitement.
Oh my god! Secretary Xiu is pregnant!!!
This was such a piece of big news!!!
Who would have thought that it was because Secretary Xiu is pregnant ah!!!
He's pretty sure that everyone's jaws will drop in shock if they learned about this.
"I understand." After carefully folding and placing the list on his b.r.e.a.s.t pocket, he left the president's office almost skipping from excitement. He immediately controlled his expression so that Xiu Mei's assistant won't notice anything strange at all.
Since the President instructed him regarding this, then it must mean that no one can't know about the situation yet. And since the boss was ordering him to purchase all this stuff, Secretary Xiu doesn't intend to stop coming to work anytime soon.
While Lu Shao was now updating his timetable for the nth time again, Xiu Mei was on a call with her parents and brothers.
"Come again?" Xiu Mo Ruo blurted out, his voice raised.
Xiu Mei cleared her throat again and repeated, "I said I might be pregnant."
"..."
"..."
"..."
The other three Xiu's was silent for a whole three seconds.
It was almost like they were screaming crazily on the other end of the line on the fourth second.
Xiu Min: "I'm gonna beat up that bastard! Is he insane?"
Xiu Mo Ruo: "What the hell! Does he have no sense of cautiousness with the current situation?!"
Xiu Gu Ren: "I'm going to be a grandfather again. (O_O)"
Yu Shi Huang: "Another thing to brag again to my friends!"
Xiu Mei: "...." Can she say that it wasn't Lu Chen's fault but rather, their luck was just so terrible that they didn't even fall into that 98% protection?
And Mom, did she forget that they shouldn't publicize it yet until the first three months are over?
Putting aside their plans of ambushing their brother-in-law, her older brother immediately said their congratulations, and her father telling her that he could send their previous maternity nanny on their side so she could take care of her during her pregnancy.
"My adorable grandson must be so excited to meet his sibling ah." Her mother said in passing that made Xiu Mei fall silent.
Xiu Mei: …
How she wishes that was the case ah. But her son doesn't even know yet because of her father's childish revenge.
