The man who spoke looked Chu Yi up and down. “Song Ting, your new secretary is pretty. You look like a monk. Such a beautiful secretary is being wasted.”

Then he turned to Chu Yi and said, “What’s your name? Why don’t you work with me?”

Hearing the man’s suggestive words and seeing him holding a blonde mixed-race beauty in his left hand, eyeing her up, Chu Yi felt uncomfortable.

As she had already gotten off work, Chu Yi was not wearing her work clothes. Instead, she wore a white sporty dress. Her high ponytail made her look more energetic.

And, since she had removed her makeup, she appeared younger than her actual age.

Chu Yi also recognized the man in front of her. He was the young master of the Shen Corporation, Shen Kai.

It was hard for Chu Yi not to know about him. She could see gossip about him almost every week. He slept with almost every popular female celebrity in the entertainment industry.

Chu Yi took a closer look at the mixed-race beauty beside him. Wasn’t she a female celebrity from a talent show?

However, Chu Yi did not pay attention to Shen Kai. Instead, she lowered her head and asked about Song Ting’s condition. “President, are you okay? I’m Chu Yi. Shall I send you back now?”

Seeing that Chu Yi ignored him, Shen Kai became unhappy. “Chu Yi? Is that your name? How about you work with me? I’ll double your salary!”

Shen Kai grabbed Chu Yi’s arm as he spoke, but he did not expect Song Ting to grab his wrist. “How dare you touch my people?”

“Tsk!” Shen Kai retracted his hand. “No wonder she didn’t even look at me. It turns out that she has taken a fancy to you.”

“Yong Master Shen, please show some restraint,” Chu Yi said, visibly displeased and with a more aloof expression.

Shen Kai was like a child who had just discovered an amusing toy. He leaned closer to Chu Yi. “Oh, are you embarrassed that I’ve guessed your thoughts? Song Ting is a monk. He won’t interest in you, so why not follow me? I…”

Before Shen Kai could finish, Song Ting covered his mouth with a large hand.

Then Song Ting struggled to stand up. “Who asked you to come? Where’s the driver?”

Chu Yi gave Shen Kai a glance.

Shen Kai slapped the hand away from his face. “I just thought you were feeling lonely. We all have someone to keep us warm at night. You’re the only one…”

Shen Kai finally stopped speaking when he saw the murderous look in Song Ting’s eyes. “I was going to call your driver, but I dialed the wrong number.”

Song Ting rolled his eyes at him. Did he think he could deceive him with such a petty trick?

Then he glanced at Chu Yi again, turned around, and walked out.

Chu Yi was too familiar with Song Ting’s gaze and immediately followed him.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the bar, they saw that Song Ting’s driver had already arrived.

Chu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. She had called the driver beforehand. It seemed she had made the right decision.

As soon as Chu Yi got into the passenger seat, Song Ting instructed, “Go to the riverside villa.”

Then she heard Song Ting make a phone call to someone, saying, “Go to the riverside villa. I’ll be there in half an hour. Get ready.”

When they got out of the car, Song Ting’s breathing was labored. Chu Yi also noticed that the back of his neck was red, and his eyes appeared to be slightly swollen, although it was not very noticeable in the darkness.

Song Ting did not ask the driver to follow them inside, so Chu Yi had no choice but to follow him inside.

As soon as the door of the villa was closed, the living room lights lit up, and Song Ting immediately embraced Chu Yi.

To be precise, Song Ting fell and grabbed Chu Yi’s shoulder when he fell.

Due to inertia, Chu Yi and Song Ting fell straight into the villa’s main door, and Chu Yi hit her lower back on the door handle, letting out a muffled groan.

But when she touched Song Ting’s burning skin, she realized that something was wrong. Was he having an allergic reaction?

Chu Yi quickly recalled the contents of the manual that Wang Lin had given her. The second drawer of the shoe cabinet in the living room contained desensitizing medicine!

At first, Chu Yi didn’t understand why Song Ting even wrote down the locations of the medicines at his home, but now she realized that it was in case of emergencies.

Chu Yi helped Song Ting to the living room sofa with difficulty, then found some medicine for him to take.

When she saw that Song Ting’s complexion had improved and his breathing had become stable, Chu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, the doorbell of the villa suddenly rang.

Chu Yi felt uneasy when she thought of Song Ting’s phone call just now. Could it be that the CEO had called his wife over?

At this moment, she was alone with the CEO. Chu Yi looked at her clothes, which were a little disheveled from being so busy just now.

She thought to herself that this situation was not good. If the CEO’s wife misunderstood, wouldn’t she be in deep trouble?

“What are you waiting for? Open the door,” Song Ting’s voice sounded weak, but his authoritative tone remained.

Chu Yi panicked and hastily adjusted her hair and clothing before making her way to the front door. She braced herself for the worst as she opened the door.
