A pair of bright eyes openly stared at her lips.
The more he looked, the more the young master resembled a steam engine, puffing out steam!
Ye Sisi: ?
Ye Sisi quickly turned to Qiao Xi.
She knew one thing very well—every time Nian Ge got flustered, it had something to do with Sister Xi!
Qiao Xi just bit her lollipop, sauntering over nonchalantly, "Wow, an allergic reaction? Your face is so red."
Ye Sisi was disappointed: It seems nothing happened.
Yu Si Nian was shocked: Flirting! This is flirting! She said this exact thing last night between the eighth and ninth kisses, and now she's blatantly saying it in front of Ye Sisi. This woman is truly... bold.
The young master's right foot was furiously grinding the floor tiles.
"Ahem, Nian Ge, about that recording..." Ye Sisi couldn't help but interrupt Yu Si Nian's breakdown, pushing the phone towards him.
Previously, Yu Si Nian had told her to record, anticipating that Duan Fulin would definitely make a move against Qiao Xi.
Yu Si Nian looked up, about to speak, when he suddenly remembered something.
He shouted, "Cheng Xi!"
From the tree, Cheng Dong, filling in for Cheng Xi, jumped down.
"Present! Young master!"
"Why are you here?"
"Cheng Xi went to buy a locked diary!"
Yu Si Nian nodded, facing Cheng Dong, "Tell her to keep the recording safe and report to the police later."
"Got it." Cheng Dong relayed to Ye Sisi, who was a meter away, "Keep it safe and report to the police later."
Ye Sisi: ?
Qiao Xi: ?
Ye Sisi asked, "Should we make a copy?"
Yu Si Nian, still addressing Cheng Dong, said, "No need."
Cheng Dong passed on, "No need."
Ye Sisi: ???
"Nian Ge, why are you relaying messages through someone else? It's not like you don't know me!"
This time, Yu Si Nian addressed Qiao Xi, "I don't know her. In my life, I've never seen a woman with more than two characters in her name."
The young master walked away unsteadily, his voice still audible at the door.
"Besides, a fortune-teller said I can't have children with someone whose name has three characters. If we do, they'll die. I believe in fate, and I don't want to die."
Ye Sisi: ???
Qiao Xi: ???
The two stared at each other in confusion.
Cheng Dong casually gathered the snacks from the young master's desk, saying, "Get used to it. The fortune-teller also said that our young master is too handsome, and this handsomeness comes at the cost of certain things. Do you get what I'm saying?"
He left after speaking.
Ye Sisi stammered for a while before asking Qiao Xi, "Sister Xi, what should I do next?"
Qiao Xi bit through her lollipop, sat down in the boss's chair, and asked, "Can you act?"
Ye Sisi: "Yes!"
Qiao Xi beckoned her over, "Come closer."
Ye Sisi beamed and leaned in.
At a meeting later, Qiao Xi learned some news—Duan Fulin's assets had entered the auction process, but there was no evidence to prove intentional harm, so that couldn't be established.
The auction results would take a while, meaning the money wouldn't come in quickly; she'd still have to hustle!
Qiao Xi slapped the table at the company, "I declare the second commercial battle of 'Just Making a Billion' Company! This time, I'll personally lead!"
Everyone cheered, "President Qiao! President Qiao! President Qiao! Victory! Victory! Victory!"
Soon, the first wave of soldiers reached the battlefield, consisting of Aunt Zhao, her sulking son, and her new husband, Li Dazhuang.
Before setting off, the family of three had a little mishap.
"I've told you many times! I don't agree, I don't agree, I don't agree! I don't want a stepdad!"
Aunt Zhao's son, Niu Jianqiang, grabbed the company railing and jumped down!
"Whoa!" Everyone was shocked.
Aunt Zhao pushed Dazhuang.
Li Dazhuang rushed over, "Don't do anything rash! I bought your favorite game console!"
Fan Zhiying frowned, "Ridiculous, talking about a game console now instead of comforting..."
"Bang!"
Niu Jianqiang jumped back to the second floor, looking around.
Seeing the game console in Dazhuang's hand, he ran over!
"Really? Dad, does it come with game cartridges?"
"Yes! It does!"
Niu Jianqiang: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
Aunt Zhao shed tears of joy, "I knew you'd like him!"
The family of three set off like a whirlwind!
Fan Zhiying: "..."
She posted on a website: [Question, what should I do if I'm the only normal person in the entire company?]
At the Yu Corporation.
"They're here again! They're here again!" The secretary shouted over the intercom, "The enemy is attacking again!"
Li Cheng's expression darkened as he looked at He Xuefang across from him.
They were well-prepared, "Let's go."
On the top floor, the president's office.
Yu Zheng gracefully extended his hand.
The secretary immediately pushed over a high-end leather chair, along with tea and air-shipped French pastries.
"Not these." Yu Zheng squinted.
"Oh, right!" The secretary understood and brought out a sky-blue children's telescope.
Yu Zheng: ?
The secretary scratched his head, "This was the only one left. I had to snatch it from a kid; he's still crying!"
Yu Zheng nodded, "Give yourself a raise."
The secretary was thrilled, "Thank you, President Yu! This is the best vantage point! Everyone watched the last event from here! I tested it, and you can even scan the QR codes on their flyers from this angle!"
Yu Zheng was pushed to the corner of the floor-to-ceiling window, then hung the telescope around his neck.
He looked down, ready to watch.
Li Cheng had already reached the ground floor.
The secretary reported, "We have prepared paint, water guns, and even a team to distribute eggs! As soon as they hand out flyers, we splash paint! As soon as they give a speech, we spray water guns! If they hand out eggs, we have double the eggs ready!"
He gestured towards the warehouse, "Everything's set!"
Yu Zheng sighed after hearing the frontline report, "The situation is critical."
"They're coming!" The secretary suddenly pointed ahead, shouting!
"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"
A car with speakers slowly approached, blasting music!
The young master lazily hung in the driver's seat, one long leg propped on the door! Next to him, in the same pose, sat Qiao Xi!
Everyone was on high alert!
The secretary exclaimed, "He's here to hand out flyers!"
Li Cheng's face was ashen, "Prepare the eggs!"
Elderly people stood on the side, ready to act!
"Beep beep!"
Qiao Xi suddenly raised her hand, and the car stopped.
She looked up, "Today is a good day for marriage! We've gathered everyone to witness a love story! Here come the newlyweds—"
Li Cheng: ?
He Xuefang: ?
Newlyweds? How new? Aren't they here to hand out flyers? No eggs either?
Are they switching things up?!
Before they could react, Cheng Dong ran over with a string of firecrackers!
"Watch out! Manager Li, be careful!"
Li Cheng quickly stepped back!
Cheng Dong shouted, "Joy is here!"
"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!"
Eighty-eight firecrackers went off! Drums sounded!
Fan Zhiying led her band, beating drums and gongs!
Behind them, villagers from Xicun rolled out the red carpet and threw candy!
Everyone at the Yu Corporation: ?!?!?!?!
The secretary was stunned, "Are they... are they getting married here?!"
Li Cheng gritted his teeth, "Stop them!"
But it was too late.
"Beep beep beep da da da—"
Qiao Xi started playing the suona!
Onlookers stopped to watch!
Qiao Xi announced, "Here come Zhao Yi, whom Li Cheng failed to court, and her beloved current husband, Li Dazhuang!"
The crowd: "Oh~"
Li Cheng: Damn it!!!
"Stop them!" he shouted.
But the car skillfully maneuvered, and Yu Si Nian drove away expertly with one hand.
As they passed Li Cheng, he even saluted.
Upstairs, Yu Zheng sipped his tea, "Impossible to catch. I've tried; he's really good at this."
