Chapter 11 Young Master Yan Is Back

  • “S-so it’s a deal. Just now, you took advantage of me. After being bullied by you, I didn’t even complain,” Tang Xuchun said innocently.
  • Fidgeting with her collar, she looked really pitiful.
  • It was as if she was the one who had been bitten and had her beloved collection shattered.
  • He Yanfeng was boiling mad.
  • He glared at her as his gaze attempted to pierce through her heart like a sword.
  • Tang Xuchun subconsciously recoiled a little as she pursed her lips.
  • At first, he had wanted to blow up and vent it out on her, but seeing her innocent eyes welling up with tears, He Yanfeng suppressed his anger instead.
  • “Get lost!”
  • Controlling his urge to strangle her, he ordered her to leave in the end.
  • He didn’t want to see her anymore as her presence made him frustrated.
  • “Okay.” Tang Xuchun took his olive branch and left immediately.
  • Afraid that he might change his mind and demand compensation, she sprinted away.
  • After she had left, He Yanfeng leaned against the glass and forced himself to calm down.
  • She is so annoying, but I couldn’t bear to scold her!
  • I guess I’m going mad!
  • However, as he recalled her saying that she had someone she liked, He Yanfeng’s expression turned cold.
  • Immediately, he called for Qi Hai, who was watching him from the outside and occasionally glancing into the office room.
  • Qi Hai had just seen Madam hurrying out and he had wanted to call out to her when the President called for him.
  • He pushed open the redwood door. With keen eyes and excellent attention to detail, he immediately noticed something was wrong.
  • The ornament on the redwood table was shattered into pieces.
  • “Mr. President! Wh-what a loss!” He Yanfeng naturally knew what Qi Hai was talking about.
  • Sitting on the leather chair, He Yanfeng exuded a cold, intimidating aura around him, as if the entire office was blanketed in ice and snow.
  • Suddenly, Qi Hai bent down. Something about He Yanfeng had caught his eye.
  • “Mr. President, you’re injured!” Qi Hai yelled in shock.
  • As He Yanfeng glared at him sharply, he immediately shut up.
  • “I was bitten by a dog,” said He Yanfeng casually.
  • “Oh, what a unique bite,” Qi Hai replied smoothly. He was clearly mocking him.
  • What kind of dog bite would leave teeth marks?
  • He Yanfeng looked at him sharply.
  • With a smile, Qi Hai stopped talking.
  • This Madam was quite something after all.
  • “Go and check...” He Yanfeng froze in mid-sentence and thought about what it was he wanted to say.
  • “What should I check? Is it something about Madam?” Qi Hai immediately asked in curiosity.
  • Hearing the mention of that country bumpkin, He Yanfeng’s knitted his brows.
  • “Check if she has any romantic relationships in school!”
  • “Huh? Oh!” Qi Hai got a shock but swiftly responded, “Then what about this Qing Dynasty Qianlong vase?”
  • “Get an expert to repair it. Go and replace all the antiques in the house with good fakes too. That country bumpkin doesn’t know how to appreciate them. She’ll only cause me to lose money!” He Yanfeng frowned.
  • As he recalled how she had proclaimed the vase to cost only twenty confidently, He Yanfeng was so mad that he couldn’t speak.
  • “Alright, I’ll find an expert right away,” Qi Hai replied.
  • Just as he was about to leave, he turned back again.
  • “Young Master, do you need some medical cream for your face?” Qi Hai asked tentatively, hiding back a smile and maintaining the professionalism a President’s special assistant should have.
  • “What do you think?” He Yanfeng growled.
  • How could he go out and meet clients with teeth marks on his face!
  • Qi Hai nodded and got ready to leave.
  • “Wait!” He Yanfeng suddenly shouted after him.
  • Qi Hai swiftly turned back around and faced him respectfully.
  • “Is my brother’s wheelchair still at home?” asked He Yanfeng.
  • “Yes,” answered Qi Hai.
  • “Get it for me. I want to use it tonight.” Stroking his face, He Yanfeng started plotting how to take his revenge on Tang Xuchun.
  • “Okay,” Qi Hai acknowledged and left.
  • When Tang Xuchun walked out of the president’s office, she was surrounded by a group of high-level executives.
  • “How did you get along with the president?” One of the high-level executives asked warmly.
  • They wanted to find out more about the temperament of this young president from her.
  • Tang Xuchun blushed. Surrounded by many warm, friendly people, she was slightly embarrassed.
  • “The president’s not bad,” she lied.
  • She was completely different from the fierce person who had glared at He Yanfeng just now. In front of these seniors, she acted like a polite, well-behaved junior.
  • “Does the President lose his temper easily? Will he give many orders?”
  • “What does the President like or need?”
  • “The President...”
  • As everyone broke out into conversation, Tang Xuchun suddenly heard the most important question.
  • “There is something the President likes.” Tang Xuchun nodded vigorously and continued, “He likes to collect antiques. I saw a beautiful vase in his office. I’m wondering if you can find me another one to make it a pair?”
  • As she blushed, Tang Xuchun looked quiet and well-behaved. With her baby face, she appeared just like a high school student.
  • “He likes to collect antiques? That’s easy then.” The executive who had scolded Tang Xuchun previously spoke up and turned to someone beside him, “Zhao, don’t you collect antiques as well? Name a price and let me pick a few to gift to the President.”
  • “Alright. We’ll discuss this tonight. After all, we can’t treat the President too shabbily,” said the other person.
  • “Okay!” Everyone nodded in agreement and praised Tang Xuchun, “Thank you, Ms. Tang.”
  • After all, in the battle of office politics, it was important to know what the President liked.
  • In the future, it would be easier to win his favor.
  • On the outside, Tang Xuchun smiled shyly, but on the inside, she was secretly celebrating!
  • She wouldn’t even need to spend twenty!
  • This is great!
  • I’m really very poor right now. I’m so hard up I can’t really afford twenty.
  • “Supervisors, if you need help transporting the gifts, you can always look for me,” Tang Xuchun said with a smile.
  • “Okay, sure.” Everyone nodded again.
  • The executives were pleased that Tang Xuchun took the initiative to help them.
  • It would be great if all young people were as enthusiastic as her.
  • But this wasn’t what Tang Xuchun was thinking about. Now that I’ve helped Mr. President gain so many more new antiques, he wouldn’t hold me responsible for that vase anymore, right?
  • This is just me being resourceful.
  • Any business-minded person must think like this!
  • I’m truly clever and cunning, heh.
  • On her first day of work, Tang Xuchun finally left the group of executives who were surrounding her and went to report to her own department.
  • Even though she was a newcomer, she was treated surprisingly well.
  • Mr. President didn’t come to make trouble for her either and only gave her a few documents to translate.
  • Tang Xuchun was very good with languages and had learned English and Japanese to a high standard just by watching American and Japanese dramas. In addition, after studying at school for so long, she was now proficient in English, German, French, Japanese, and Korean.
  • After translating the documents, it was already time to get off work.
  • As usual, the butler came to fetch her in a discreet private car.
  • When Tang Xuchun reached her villa, she saw the familiar MPV.
  • It was the MPV that had sent Young Master Yan away on her wedding day!
  • Tang Xuchun’s heart skipped a beat as her breathing quickened.
