Lin Shiyan almost exploded with anger at Wang Dadong's words, but frustratingly, there was nothing she could argue against.
Even if she really called the police, they would probably just treat it as a domestic dispute between husband and wife, advising them to make up!
Moreover, Wang Dadong hadn't done anything overly inappropriate to her.
"May I ask where you work?" Lin Shiyan asked, having calmed her emotions.
She was truly curious to know if there was anything special about this man.
After all, he could be Lin Shiyan's own husband!
"Shiyan Group."
Lin Shiyan frowned and scoffed, "Shiyan Group? I don't remember having someone like you at Shiyan Group."
"Wife, are you silly? If you arrange a job for me, won't I be working at Shiyan Group?" Wang Dadong said as if it were obvious.
"What? I should arrange a job for you?" Lin Shiyan almost lost her temper again.
She had assumed that—even if Wang Dadong wasn't some high-level executive of a well-known company—at the very least, he would be a wealthy second-generation heir; however, she couldn't believe he was asking her to arrange a job for him.
"Yeah, aren't you the President of Shiyan Group? Arranging a job for me should be easy, right?" Wang Dadong continued unabashedly.
"So, what are your skills, what position do you want, and what do you expect in terms of salary?" Lin Shiyan couldn't help but find humor in his arrogance, having seen many men leech off women, but none so boldly as him.
"Actually, I have many skills, you could say I'm pretty much capable of anything, I can adapt to any position. As for the salary, as long as it's enough to buy a pack of cigarettes, that'll do, since what's mine is yours," Wang Dadong said, quite pleased with himself.
Hearing Wang Dadong's words, Lin Shiyan couldn't help but smile, "Well, in that case, our company has a very important position that urgently needs talented individuals like you."
"Oh? What position?" Wang Dadong's interest was piqued.
"Security guard!" Lin Shiyan said with a smile.
"What? You want me to be a security guard!" Wang Dadong, who had been full of expectation, suddenly jumped up, thinking that a person with his versatile talents should at least be offered a vice president's position!
He had envisioned himself sitting in a spacious, well-lit office, surrounded by a bevy of beautiful secretaries in OL uniforms, some massaging his legs, others his shoulders, all the while respectfully calling him 'President Wang'. Oh, the bliss!
"What's wrong, you don't want to do it? It is a very important position in our company, after all!" Seeing the dejected look on Wang Dadong's face and imagining how he would cower before her in the future, Lin Shiyan felt a wave of schadenfreude.
And besides, the security guards weren't even part of Shiyan Group, so if he couldn't handle it and decided to quit, it wouldn't be her fault.
"Important how?" Wang Dadong was somewhat disheartened.
Although he had often worked as a security guard abroad, that was very different from being a security guard at a company like this, right?
If he really became a security guard, wouldn't he have to bow and call her 'President' whenever he saw this girl?
Damn it, that would be too tragic.
"It's very important. Just think about it, a security guard has to protect against fire, theft, disasters, manage traffic, and also prevent and handle all kinds of safety incidents. Without security guards, the company's property and the safety of its employees would be at risk. If anything happened to our company and it stopped production, it would affect the millions of women who choose Shiyan cosmetic products.
If they were no longer beautiful, men would certainly lessen their pursuit of money, which in turn would indirectly affect the development of the national economy... Do I need to go on?" Lin Shiyan playfully winked.
If employees of the Shiyan Group saw this demeanor, they'd surely be shocked.
Because within the company, Lin Shiyan never so much as cracked a smile, and had earned the title of the Ice Queen.
"No need, I'll work as the security guard!" Wang Dadong found himself at a loss for words in response to Lin Shiyan's remark.
Lin Shiyan was very pleased with Wang Dadong's reaction and nodded, "I'm not sure if you're used to sleeping on a firmer bed."
"Used to it, definitely used to it," Wang Dadong excitedly replied. This happiness came so suddenly!
"That's good, the living room floor is yours then," Lin Shiyan said with a charming smile, then turned towards the bedroom, which also had an ensuite bathroom, albeit not as large as the one outside.
"Hey, there are plenty of rooms here, at least find me a room?" Wang Dadong complained in frustration.
"Sorry, there are indeed many rooms, but none have beds," Lin Shiyan said, and then she closed the bedroom door and even locked it.
In Demacia, I, Wang Dadong, have handled countless women, but today a woman has handled me.
Wang Dadong gloomily looked at the floor. Thankfully, the ground here was at least more comfortable than sleeping in the jungle, no mosquitoes, and there was air conditioning.
...
The next morning.
"It's all that jerk's fault, he kept me from having a good night's sleep," Lin Shiyan cursed under her breath as she brushed her teeth.
She was convinced that Wang Dadong would surely try to find a way into her room during the night.
With a beautiful woman like her and a legitimate excuse, it was absolutely impossible for him not to have any designs.
Even though she had locked her door, she still didn't feel secure, so she remained on guard against Wang Dadong the whole time.
Who would have thought that guy actually didn't make a single move and just lay on the living room floor all night, sleeping like a log! In contrast, she only managed to fall asleep in the wee hours of the morning.
"You just sleep, it's your first day of work today, and if you dare make me late, you'll regret it!"
After finishing her morning routine, Lin Shiyan went to the living room, only to discover Wang Dadong was no longer there.
"Smart of you, but I don't believe I can't catch you out," Lin Shiyan routinely opened the fridge, planning to eat an apple to tide her over until breakfast.
However, the apples were gone from the fridge, and in their place was a note that read, "Most fruits are cool in nature, so it's best not to eat them for breakfast. I've already made porridge and put it on the dining table, don't worry about time, I've set your alarm clock ten minutes ahead, you'll have plenty of time for breakfast. No need to thank me, this is what a good husband should do."
The note even had a smiley face at the end.
"Mind your own business!"
Lin Shiyan tore off the note and casually threw it into the trash.
"A pretty boy will always be a pretty boy, resorting only to these cheap tricks. I, Lin Shiyan, am looking for a man who can support half the sky of the Shiyan Group, not a pretty boy who only knows how to cajole women!"
This kind of tactic might work on ordinary women, but with Lin Shiyan, it was totally ineffective.
Lin Shiyan didn't even glance at the breakfast Wang Dadong had made.
But as Lin Shiyan was about to change into her high heels, she discovered a plate on top of the shoe rack with an apple and a glass of milk on it.
