Yuexi looked at Li Fengjue, who isn’t inclined to justify himself, her last glimmer of hope dwindling. Just when she turns around and is about to leave, she hears Li Fengjue suddenly saying to her, “You want to be Hua Linfeng’s secretary?”

Yuexi is just about to walk away, but she stops. She really doesn’t know how to describe her mood at that moment. She is sort of angry. She turns back to stare coldly at Li Fengjue, “It’s none of your business.”

Li Fengjue doesn’t look good. “You’re my wife! Without my permission, you can’t be his secretary. I want you to resign today!”

“Maybe legally speaking, we’re still husband and wife. But still you are not entitled to control my life!” After saying that, Yuexi doesn’t wait for the reply from Li Fengjue. She pushes away Liu Rui who stands in front of him, and walks straight away. Yuexi doesn’t want to go to the office now. Instead, she takes a sick leave and goes straight home. Throwing herself on the bed, she covers her head with the blanket and lies still.

The next morning, Yuexu sits up in bed in a daze. After a long while she suddenly remembers that she has officially become Hua Linfeng’s secretary today. Then she suddenly thinks of Li Fengjue, but she shakes her head violently in an effort to kick him out of her mind. After that, she gets up, cleans herself up, and leaves the house. When Yuexi arrives at the company, Ding Ning has already arrived. Ding Ning greets her with a smile. “Good morning, what happened yesterday? Are you feeling better today?”

Yuexi smiles and shakes her head, “I’m fine, Ms Ding. Thank you.”

“That’s good.” Ding Ning smiles and looks back at Yuexi, “Let’s go, I’ll show you your office.” Yuexi hurriedly thanks her, following her to her new office. Ding Ning helps her tidy up her office.

In her office, Yuexi hands a cup of coffee to Ding Ning, “Thank you, Ms. Ding. If it weren’t for your help, I wouldn’t be able to finish it so quickly.” Ding Ning takes a sip of the coffee and says, “It doesn’t matter. The general manager has asked me to take good care of you. Besides, we all report directly to the general manager, so I think we should help each other.”

Yuexi hesitates for a while and then asks softly, “Ms Ding, do you know why the general manager chooses me as his secretary? It’s only been a few days since I first came to the company.”

Ding Ning shakes her head, “I have no idea. The general manager also has just been here for a short time, so I’m not very familiar with him. I was informed of his decision just hours before I told you. I also felt weird at the beginning. You’re just a newcomer. But the general manager said that you had ability and potential, so I couldn’t say anything more. To be honest, you did do a good job! Your performance is indeed impressive. Perhaps this is why he decided to promote you as his secretary.”

Although Yuexi still doesn’t know why Hua Linfeng chose her, however, she has to admit it is a very good opportunity for her who is determined to climb up to the top of the pyramid. She smiles and says to Ding Ning, “What ability do I have? I can’t do anything and I have to ask you to teach me more.”

Ding Ning puts down the coffee and pats Yuexi on the shoulder, “Don’t worry. Well, I will help you. Okay, let’s start working.”

Sending Ding Ning off, Yuexi returns to her seat. She looks at her brand-new office and is filled with energy in an instant. She believes that she would make it to the top with her own efforts. When it’s about time to go back home, Yuexi’s office door is suddenly pushed open and in comes Hua Linfeng. She stands up in a hurry, greeting him. “General Manager.”

Hua Linfeng smiles and waves his hand, “It’s okay, don’t be nervous. I’m not here to check your work.”

Yuexi smiles and feels slightly relaxed, “General Manager, what do you need me to do? Just call me.”

Hua Linfeng shakes his head, and sits down on the chair in front of the desk, “I don’t need anything. I’m here just to see whether you like your new office and whether you like your new job.” Yuexi is stunned for a moment, “Well, I like the office very much, and I like my job too. Ms. Ding has taught me quite a lot.”

“Well, Ding Ning is a very capable person. You can learn a lot from her.” Hua Linfeng nods and says to her.

Just as Yuexi is about to speak, Hua Linfeng interrupts her, “I know you are wondering why I would ask you to be my secretary.”

Yuexi looks at him, without saying a word.

He stands up and looks at Yuexi with a smile, “I have my reasons, you’ll know, until then, just do your job.” Seeing Linfeng open the door and leave, she feels sort of confused. What was he trying to say? Why did he come here?

However, Yuexi could clearly feel that he doesn’t seem to have any bad intentions towards her. On the contrary, he gives her such a feeling that he is trying to cultivate her. Yuexi is a little unsure. He is as unpredictable as Li Fengjue. Thinking of Li Fengjue, she couldn’t help but feel depressed again. She suddenly thinks of what Ren Jin told her. Did he, as he said, have his reasons to treat her like that? Li Fengjue also told her the same words yesterday. At this moment, she suddenly wants to know what kind of reason would make Li Fengjue hurt her so much.

She can’t figure out an answer. With these puzzles, Yuexi returns to her home. As soon as she enters, she’s startled, “You! Li Fengjue! How did you get in!” Although she knows he has ways to get into her house, but when he does appear in front of her, Yuexi still feels a little bit creepy. Who knows if he would come in at night and do something to her?

Li Fengjue takes off his jacket, loosens his tie, and leans back on the sofa, just like the master of the house. Looking back at Yuexi, he says, “You’re back, my dear wife.”

“I’ll say it again! I’m not your wife.” Yuexi yells at Li Fengjue in anger. She reaches out her finger and points at the door, “Get out of here!”

Li Fengjue stands up and walks up to Yuexi, trying to take her into his arms again, but this time she is quick enough to run away. Yuexi gasps fiercely as she looks at him, ” You’d better leave my place!”

Seeing him standing there still, she takes a deep breath, “Good! If you don’t leave, then I will!” Before Li Fengjue realizes what happens, Yuexi turns around and pulls open the gate and runs out. Li Fengjue is stopped by the closed door, therefore, by the time he chases out, Yuexi is already out of sight.

Yuexi drives the car directly to Chen Ying’s house. She has the key to her house, so she opens the door and goes in. She doesn’t expect Chen Ying to be at home. “Eh, what are you doing here? What, are you a stalker?” Chen Ying is nestled in the sofa, with a bag of potato chips in her hands, and she is very surprised to see Yuexi. Yuexi shakes her head and comes over to sit down on the sofa, “Sister Liu hasn’t come back yet. I’m bored at home alone. So I come to your place.”

Chen Ying rolls her eyes at her, “Why? Don’t you have work to do? Look at me! Every day I have to work overtime, when I come back home, I throw myself to bed then fall asleep right away, you don’t have time to feel bored at all.”

Yuexi stretches out her foot and kicks her lightly, “What do you mean? I can’t come here uninvited?”

Chen Ying spreads out her hands, “Yes, of course, you can. I’ll be right here waiting for you. You are always welcome here.” Suddenly, she throws herself at Yuexi and hugs her, “Since you’re here, can I trouble you to cook some foods for me? I’m hungry.”

However, Yuexi shrinks into the sofa and shakes her head, “I don’t want to cook today. Order a takeout instead.”

Chen Ying frowns and looks at her strangely, “What’s wrong? Are you bullied by someone? Say the name. Then I will teach him a lesson.”

Yuexi pulls her over, “Come on, no one is bullying me. I’m the general manager’s secretary now, who dares to bully me?”

“Your general manager.” Chen Ying raises her eyebrows and looks at Yuexi with a wicked smile.
