Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 428 - 441: She Is the Lady of the House

But Su Xingyu came out.

Xie Jian gave Tang Yu a stern look, then turned to Su Xingyu and became very respectful: "It really is you, madam."

Ma...madam?!

What?!

In an instant, Tang Yu felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Did she mishear something? How could the always dignified Mr. Xie address a woman drenched like a drowned rat as madam? Who exactly is madam?

She looked at Su Xingyu in shock, her thoughts racing like lightning. In the year or so since she started working, she remembered that Xie Jian was particularly proper with etiquette. He would address all the executives’ wives as "Mrs.", usually like Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Li, etc... The only one he referred to simply as "Mrs." without a surname was Zhuang Heng because she was Mrs. Lu!

Oh my, could the woman in front of her be Mrs. Lu?!

Tang Yu had always paid a lot of attention to Lu Shifeng. She knew there were recent rumors about Lu Shifeng’s original wife, who was thought to have "died" four years ago, having returned. She had even gossiped about it and learned that Xie Jian used to call that original wife "madam"! Could this be Lu Shifeng’s original wife Su Xingyu standing before her?!

Tang Yu was utterly shocked, staring wide-eyed at Su Xingyu’s face.

Su Xingyu’s face had been healed but was still in the recovery phase, and per medical advice, she usually wore a veil or mask.

Today there was a heavy rainstorm, and while she was in the rain, she found the veil irritating and took it off, revealing a delicate and beautiful face. Though her skin was pale from the cold and her hair was messy, upon closer glance, she was still very captivating. Most importantly, that face... Tang Yu found it somewhat familiar!

She remembered! When she had just joined the company, she specifically searched for information about Mr. Lu’s original wife and saw her face in an award video from a street photography contest!

This is the face! No mistake!

It was as if thunder was exploding in her heart one after another.

Tang Yu was feeling awful, oh lord, what had she just done, raising her voice and scornfully treating the BOSS’s wife?!

Her face changed colors, whether she liked Su Xingyu or not, or felt disdain how such a bedraggled woman could be Lu Shifeng’s wife, but after all, she was truly Lu Shifeng’s lawful wife, and it wasn’t her place as a lowly secretary to raise her voice!

Tang Yu quietly stepped back a bit, trying her best to reduce her presence, praying that Xie Jian would forget her disrespectful behavior towards Su Xingyu.

But Xie Jian did not forget her. After addressing Su Xingyu, he turned to Tang Yu and said: "Go fetch a blanket, find some clean clothes if possible, and take a cup of hot water to the VIP lounge, quickly."

After speaking, he spoke again to Su Xingyu: "Madam, please rest in the lounge for a moment. The BOSS is still in a meeting. I’ll let him know that you’ve arrived."

"No need," Su Xingyu shook her head, declining his courtesy, "I’ll go find him myself."

With that, not waiting for Xie Jian to stop her, she hurried towards the direction of the conference room.

Tang Yu, who had initially heard Xie Jian’s instructions, was reluctant, but now she didn’t have to bring hot water to the lounge, gladly staying put to watch the drama unfold.

Oh, it didn’t matter if Su Xingyu was Lu Shifeng’s wife or not.

Mr. Lu was in a very important meeting right now! The manager in charge of finance—a very important person—had tried to disturb the meeting but was kept outside, let alone a mere woman!

Tang Yu couldn’t help but have a smug smile on her face, ha, go right in, get directly disliked by Mr. Lu, no title or status will help you then! 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Not to mention, Zhuang Heng who is ’Mrs.’ eyeing you fiercely...

You guys can fight it out!

Tang Yu proudly followed Su Xingyu into the conference room, afraid of missing the spectacle.

Su Xingyu had already pushed open the conference room door.

The atmosphere inside was solemn and serious, a complicated mechanical structure was displayed on the big screen, and several executives along with Lu Shifeng were intensely discussing something.

Su Xingyu’s pushing open the door brought a gust of chill, disrupting the atmosphere, everyone turned their heads and saw a slender, frail girl soaking wet like a drowned rat standing at the door, face pale, lips with a hint of purple, rushing unbothered towards Lu Shifeng, seated at the head of the meeting table.

"You don’t..." Some executives hadn’t reacted to the situation, attempting to stop her. But halfway through one’s voice it was as if he had been choked—God, he recognized that face, many executives present recognized it, that was the face of the young madam said to have died four years ago, Lu Shifeng’s original wife!

Everyone stared at her in shock.

No one at this moment would pursue her fully drenched and breaking into a conference for impropriety, even the rainwater brought inside wetting the floor and equipment didn’t matter, everyone silently watched as she rushed to Lu Shifeng’s side, leaning down with one hand on his desk, nearly shouting, "How can you have the mood to sit here and have a meeting?! The heavy rain means helicopters can’t fly, don’t you know?! Quickly call a driver to pick up Han and Jue!"

Lu Shifeng had been at the company the whole day, busy to the point of losing track of time, though aware it was raining outside, he had no time to pay attention to how severe it was.

Only upon hearing Su Xingyu did he realize Han and Jue were stranded at kindergarten, he didn’t pay attention to the whole situation she described, first calmly assured her, "I’ll go with you."

He stood up to leave.

"BOSS..."

An executive hesitated, wanting to remind him that they were in the midst of an important meeting, discussing the most cutting-edge product in the history of the Blade Camera, set to launch soon! How could the BOSS prioritize personal matters over business?

But a quick-witted executive beside him secretly pulled him, stopping him.

Seeing the BOSS’s wife’s anxiety, obviously something serious, insisting the BOSS stay for the meeting could be disastrous, right?

Between the pull and tug, Lu Shifeng had already taken big strides out of the conference room with Su Xingyu.

While descending in the elevator, Su Xingyu finally had the chance to speak to Lu Shifeng in detail, explaining the rain, the helicopters, other drivers at home stranded, then told Lu Shifeng, "Now only Zhou’s car is available, I need that car to pick up the kids. Lu Shifeng, whether or not you go personally actually doesn’t matter, you can return to the meeting room."

Lu Shifeng frowned at her: "How can I trust you like this to go alone?"

Speaking as he took off his suit jacket and placed it over her shoulders.

Her body was still dripping, shivering cold yet she mocked, "Spare me your hypocrisy...what an imposing man you are, claiming you regard me as your wife, and yet, your driver doesn’t even listen to me! Had Zhou listened to my orders, he would’ve been on his way to pick up the kids already! Just delayed a while, now catching the after-work rush, the roads will definitely be more congested!"
