Chapter 1405 - 1403: Could It Be True?
It wasn’t until a while later, when she heard them mentioning Yan Yan’s name in their WeChat voice messages, with those lovestruck expressions and tones, that she finally remembered—back when she used to come here, there would often be girls waiting downstairs too. They were all little starlets, models, or rich second‑gen ladies with some family money, all looking for a chance to get close to Yan Yan.
Thinking of that, Luo Luo’s mood instantly soured, and she couldn’t help letting out a cold snort,
deciding that once she finished eating, she’d go up and tell the beautiful woman to kick them all out.
She was very petty about this kind of thing.
But maybe it had just been too long since she’d come by—turns out the receptionist on duty today was new, someone she didn’t know.
The food did get delivered to her, but since the receptionist had no idea what her relationship with Yan Yan was, she still followed protocol and asked, "Miss, may I ask who you’re here to see?"
Yun Qiluo sniffled and answered, "I’m here to see Yan Yan."
The receptionist then asked, "If you’re looking for our Boss, you’ll need an appointment. Do you have one scheduled in advance?"
Yun Qiluo honestly shook her head. "Nope."
"You can’t go up without an appointment. But you can sit here and wait for him to get off work," the receptionist said, taking a liking to her because of how cute she was. "I’ll go grab some more snacks for you."
Yun Qiluo immediately thanked her and then lowered her head to crack sunflower seeds.
The sunflower seeds here were so fragrant and crunchy, with a creamy flavor too. Why didn’t they stock any at home?
The mini cakes were great, and the tea smelled amazing as well.
The waiting lounge treatment was way too good; no wonder so many people came to wait here every day.
But just as the receptionist walked away, someone beside her let out a mocking laugh.
"I thought she really knew Yan Yan, but turns out she’s just like us—stuck waiting here. Even getting a glimpse of him is hard."
"Guess Mr. Yan isn’t that easy to book, no matter how famous you are."
"But wasn’t there a rumor online before, saying she and Mr. Yan had that kind of relationship?"
"You actually believe that kind of rumor? I bet she paid someone to push those stories herself. Celebrities love doing that bundled marketing thing."
Listening to their discussion, Yun Qiluo didn’t react at all.
She kept her head down in silence, polishing off plate after plate of snacks, and only when she was done did she contentedly wipe her little mouth, stand up, and walk straight toward the CEO’s private elevator.
"What’s she going over to the elevator for?"
Someone even stood up and raised her voice to warn her, "Miss Yun, you can’t go over there. It’ll be bad if security kicks you out."
Yun Qiluo couldn’t even be bothered to look at her. She pulled out the elevator card Yan Yan had given her from her little bunny bag and swiped it. With a "ding," the elevator doors slid open.
In that instant, the few girls who had been gossiping went dead silent.
Especially the girl who had just warned her—her whole face froze, like she’d just been punched hard.
While they were still in a daze, Yun Qiluo had already stepped into the private elevator, and the doors quickly closed.
The girls left in the waiting area took quite a while to come back to their senses and realize what had just happened:
"Holy shit, Yun Qiluo really has something going on with Yan Yan??"
"The internet said she was Yan Yan’s fiancée—could that actually be true?"
Thinking back to how they’d acted just now, none of them could handle the embarrassment. They grabbed their bags with trembling hands and slunk away with their tails between their legs.
