Yi Liangze did not talk excessively after hanging up the call. He gestured to He Yi to go to him to share his work plan and he handed over tasks before wrapping things up.

He Yi was grateful as she listened to him as she was a fresh newbie in the business world who needed some pointers from an expert. She was lucky to meet him.

However, there was no such thing as a free lunch. He must have some motive to be this helpful!

Yi Liangze accepted a cup of tea from Ji Xueshan after finishing his guidelines and took a sip as he praised, “Your bodyguard is a great one! She holds the position of a secretary and a waitress at the same time, you have to give her a raise!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He Yi smiled lightly and added, “She is also my personal driver slash assistant!”

Yi Liangze gave her a big thumbs up and expressed his admiration, “You’ve brought out the potentials of an employee well, you are indeed a good employer! Impressive!”

Ji Xueshan’s pretty cheeks flushed and she explained smilingly, “Sister He has been treating me well, I am obligated to do more!”

“It is important for one to know his boundaries and adjust his actions accordingly!” Yi Liangze stared at He Yi’s clear eyes and complimented again, “You have sharp eyes!”

He Yi pursed her lips and asked, “Don’t you have something else to do? Why are you still here talking to me?”

Yi Liangze gave her a light smile before turning to Bao Bao, “I have to go to the office, are you following me or staying here?”

Bao Bao did not hesitate at all, “I want to stay with Aunt He!”

“Be a good boy, do not cause any trouble!” Yi Liangze caressed his tiny head.

“I won’t!” said Bao Bao before getting a cup to fill it with water near the water dispenser and place it in He Yi’s hands. “Aunt He, have some water!”

He Yi was actually thirsty after the two-hour nap and all her sweating from her nightmare. She took the cup and took a few sips. “Thank you, Bao Bao!”

Yi Liangze gave his son an approving glance before he hesitated a little and leaned to He Yi’s ear. It seemed like he wanted to whisper something to her ears.

He Yi took a step back to dodge instinctively.

“Did you consider what I asked you last night?” asked Yi Liangze softly.

‘About what?’ He Yi did not reply and she tried to figure out his words for a long time before she vaguely remembered that he asked her to consider becoming Bao Bao’s mother.

Gosh, she thought that it was just an impulse for him, how absurd! She disregarded that question after that because she did not think that he would be expecting an answer from her!

Noticing He Yi’s awkward expression, Yi Liangze understood that she did not think about it or she completely forgot.

Looking at his dim expression, He Yi knew that she had to say something or the great Young Master Yi might lose face.

“Cough,” she forced a smile and said, “About that, since it is about marriage for the both of us, I need to think about it thoroughly first. I can’t make a rash decision on this!”

She did not think that he would still want to marry her after his impulse was over.

“Oh.” He seemed to buy her explanation and accepted it. “Do think about it! There isn’t much time left, just around a week. You will have to accept it even if you didn’t think through by then!”

“...” She was a little dim perhaps because she did not sleep well the previous night. She did not seem to understand his words most of the time.

Yi Liangze grabbed his car keys and phone before leaving under He Yi’s astounded gaze.

The workload for the afternoon became simpler.

He Yi was relieved from the hectic amount of work after the slight adjustment by Yi Liangze with his superb management experience.

After all, the number of staff required for high and intermediate level management was only minor and they were the only ones whom He Yi was required to interview personally. She then delegated her work to those hired to reduce her workload.

However, she could not relax fully during her breaks as Bao Bao kept clinging himself to her and they never separated.

He Yi was happy with the newly added sweet burden instead of getting tired of it.

He Yi was joyous to take care of Bao Bao. Also, she thought that she was obligated to take care of him for Yi Liangze since she owed him a huge favor.

Fang Yu was in a young and carefree phase. Often indulging in nightlife activities, he had parties and women every night and he was used to going out at night and stay home at day. Therefore, he usually woke up with full energy around 4 p.m.

He was fully prepared when he went to the agency company with his neat clothing and limited-edition Ferrari. He was notified that He Yi rented the company’s conference room to conduct interviews to hire staff for her new company.

Fang Yu took off his sunglasses as he got off his car with full confidence and spirit in him. No woman would be able to resist his shiny status as the young master of the Fang family coupled with his gorgeous face and lean figure akin to a model’s. He was certain that not just He Yi, an aging woman, but even young girls would fail to resist his seduction.

He put on his signature seductive smile and thought that he looked extremely handsome! He was all prepared to walk into the battlefield to gain He Yi’s heart when someone who was rushing to walk on a step knocked into him by accident.

Thump!

“Ouch!”

“Ah!”

The two crashed together. That person grimaced whereas Fang Yu exclaimed with pain.

A young woman in uniform was carrying a bunch of stuff but she threw everything onto Fang Yu. Aside from the heavy files that almost knocked Fang Yu out or the receipts falling everywhere like snowflakes, a box of paint was knocked open from the impact and splattered onto Fang Yu’s expensive tailored suit, making it colorful as if it was just taken out from a dye vat.

Wei Jiameng was shocked, she did not expect herself to cause such huge trouble. Looking at Fang Yu covered in paint, she stuttered as she apologized, “I’m sorry!”

“Sh*t!” Almost exploding from anger, Fang Yu almost broke out of his gentleman character. “What is this?”

“I… I was walking fast, but…” Wei Jiameng retracted her shoulders and argued meekly, “You weren’t slow either!”

Noticing that it was getting late, Fang Yu was getting worried that He Yi might wrap up and go home if he did not take action right now. He blamed himself for sleeping in and delayed his plan until this timing but he did not expect to bump into another person in a more panicked state than he already was.

“Miss, what are you going to do about this?” Suppressing his impulse to take off his coat to throw it onto Wei Jiameng’s head, Fang Yu shrugged with a forced calm expression.

“I’ll… I’ll pay you back!” Wei Jiameng gulped silently and felt a chill on her spine as she stared at Fang Yu’s forced smile on his attractive but crimson face.

Fang Yu raised a brow and said, “I have an interview! You didn’t only ruin my clothes, you also ruined my future earnings. Are you able to pay for the great losses I’ve suffered?”

“Interview?” Wei Jiameng’s slow brain processed and she became smart instantly. “Oh, are you here for the interview by Fu Xing Leather Factory?”

Fang Yu squinted with surprise, “Are you here for that, too?”

Wei Jiameng held her head up high and became puffed up. She patted her chest in an assuring manner and said, “That’s great! Don’t worry, the owner of the leather factory is my good friend and she emphasizes capabilities instead of appearance! I’ll bring you there, I assure you that you can still get a decent job despite your stained clothes!”
