Chapter 2 - Lone Wolf

"Nobody enjoys the company of others as intensely as someone who usually avoids the company of others."

Like a newborn lamb, the man's legs shivered at the terrifying aura that the wolf exuded. The wolf's icy eyes scanned through the document in his hand and placed it on the table as he signed his name. The lamb let out a sigh of relief, 'Thank goodness, there is no error. If not, he would ask me to do it again'.

Before the icy hazel eyes could even look up, the lamb quickly took the document and left the room.

A nonchalant voice sounded from the sofa while chuckling, his heart goes out to the pitiful lamb "Go easy on him, Junting. It's just his second day."

Junting typed an email on his computer and said to the carefree man, "You're being noisy."

"You should ease up a bit. How else are you gonna get a girl like that? " the carefree man said as he crossed his legs.

This man had been with Lee Junting since their university days. Not even once he had ever seen him with a girl. It was as if being able to earn this wolf's heart was like winning the jackpot in a lottery.

A familiar irksome tingle in his head. The man glared at the man on the sofa and said, "Are you already done with what I had asked you to do, Wu Fengyuan?"

"Tch. Changing the topic again, " Fengyuan sighed and added, "I've fired the designer and set up an interview for the open position next week. I've already put it in your schedule. It's strange, though, for you to suddenly want to go to S city branch. Normally, you wouldn't even care about the job interviews happening within the company."

'The interviewees will be scared to death by this man,' Fengyuan thought.

Junting went back to typing on the computer without a word. This indicated he did a good job.

Fengyuan decided to tease the man on the office chair, "Come on, boss. Praise me. Say I did a good job!"

"If you make one more sound, I will have you thrown out," the wolf's icy voice resonated throughout the room.

Fengyan stood up grumpily and nagged, "Is that how you treat your best bro? You're not fun to play with at all. I'm going first, I need to settle some matters." Fengyuan walked towards the door before turning again with a worried look, "Get some sleep, man. It's not good for your health," and then he left.

Whether inside or outside, office gossips were everywhere and once it starts, it never stops. Gossips would always be there regardless of how strict their boss is.

The office workers of Lee Corporation gossiped on how their boss was the most handsome guy but no girl had ever been within five meters of him before. His cold aura gave them a distant feeling, but his authority was unquestionable. They even wondered whether he was gay or not. Nevertheless, people admired how young he had been when he had taken over the corporation.

Fengyuan stopped in his tracks when he heard heated conversation coming from a group of women in the pantry. He walked towards their direction and leaned in to hear their gossiping. Overhearing what they talked about made him irritated.

"...if you think he is gay, who do you think it is?"

"Maybe it's Assistant Wu! He is handsome!"

As the girls were gossiping away, a figure of a man approached them from behind, "Ahem! "

The girls were startled as they looked behind and saw Fengyuan.

"Are you ladies courting death?" Fengyuan smiled like a devil.

One of the girls, named Dayoung, fidgeting her fingers from behind, she explained, " Assistant Wu! W-what are you talking about? We were just babbling...hahaha.."

Fengyuan may be a carefree guy, but he only shows that to people he acknowledges. To other people within the office, he was as strict as Junting. This is why Junting trusted this man for the job.

"If you have so much time babbling, why don't you finish your work? The crappy report you submitted last month was written half-heartedly! " he glared at Dayoung.

Dayoung's face became red from being scolded in front of her colleagues, her toes curl up in her shoes.

Everyone in the office knew what kind of person Dayoung was. Today, she wore a short office skirt and her top two buttons were purposefully undone showing off her assets".

Dayoung bit her lips, not wanting to embarrass herself any longer. She resorts to the method she used to get away with things. She squeezed her arms to show her cleavage as she leaned in and said, "Assistant Wu, I didn't mean it that way. I will rewrite my last month's report if you want..."

The sight of this woman made Fengyuan want to puke. Fengyuan smirked as he seized the chance to shove her deeper into the hole she had dug herself into", "Since you insist, submit your last month's report and this month's report in 2 days. It must be over 3,000 words or else, don't ever think of stepping into this building anymore."

Fengyuan walked away as Dayoung fell to her knees.
