Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Old Master and Madam no longer hold you in their hearts…” Auntie Wang’s anxiety was palpable. “Lady Yuqi, you must act swiftly. Delaying any further will risk diminishing your standing in the Cheng family.”
Cheng Yuqi hesitated, saying, “But…”
Auntie Wang interjected firmly, “Stop hesitating!”
Upon hearing Auntie Wang’s stern words, Cheng Yuqi bit her lip, resolving to take action.
In Country M,
A private helicopter rested on the rooftop of an office building.
As the tall and handsome man prepared to board the helicopter, another man hurriedly approached.
“Boss, wait a moment. There’s an unexpected issue with the project in the city center. Can you stay a few more days?”
The man’s demeanor was cold, and his presence exuded strength. Upon hearing this, his eyes narrowed with a frigid intensity.
The assistant at his side, Ruan Nuo, remarked, “The Boss intends to return home to visit his sister. Work commitments have already delayed him for half a month. Coordinate with President Zhao on the project and inform the Boss of any complications.”
“Assistant Ruan, you might not be aware…”
Before the man could finish, he noticed Ruan Nuo’s gaze on his left foot. It was then he realized he had inadvertently stepped on the helicopter’s boarding stairs. Hastily, he withdrew and bowed respectfully. “Safe travels, Boss. Take care, Assistant Ruan.”
The helicopter ascended into the sky. The handsome and stoic man inquired, “Have you chosen the gift?”
“Boss, everything is prepared!” Ruan Nuo replied respectfully. “We’ve arranged three sets: a limited edition lipstick set, a limited edition perfume set, and a skincare product.”
Because the Boss was uncertain about the kind of gift he wanted to give his sister, he opted for a comprehensive set. Lipstick, perfume, and skincare products were typical choices for contemporary young women.
However, the man remained composed and remarked, “It’s too light.”
Ruan Nuo swiftly realized the inadequacy of these gifts and apologized, “I’m sorry, Boss. I didn’t think it through. I’ll rearrange it once we land.”
The man inquired, “Which brands are most favored by girls in the country?”
Ruan Nuo pondered for a moment. “There’s a brand called FY.” Emerging three years ago, FY gained rapid popularity in the upper-class circle due to its unique clothing style, featuring only one piece per style. Subsequently, FY expanded to include bags, shoes, and accessories, making waves in the fashion industry.
The designer behind FY, Yanli, had received numerous international accolades, propelling the brand to international A-list status.
“I heard FY recently launched a jewelry series. Each piece is one-of-a-kind…” Ruan Nuo promptly presented the tablet to the man.
After a single glance, the man’s focus settled on a pink diamond necklace. Girls generally favored pink and diamonds, right?
“I’ll take this one.”
Ruan Nuo was slightly taken aback. In their first meeting, the Boss personally chose a 40-million-yuan pink diamond necklace for his sister? It seemed the Boss held this sister close to his heart.
The helicopter proceeded directly to Hua Land and landed on the top floor of Cheng Ming’s headquarters.
As soon as the man disembarked, more than 20 executives lined both sides, awaiting his arrival.
All the employees in the building were extra cautious due to his arrival, making sure not to make any mistakes.
Meanwhile,
Bo Yi cradled Fang Yuan in his arms and powered up his phone for her to browse. “FY’s new jewelry. Let’s see if there’s anything you like.”
Without even glancing at the offerings, Fang Yuan dismissed him. “I already have plenty. I can’t wear them all. Plus, I’m not fond of accessories; they’re too bothersome. Besides, I design these myself…”
Bo Yi gazed at her affectionately. “My Yuanyuan, you’re exceptional. I must reward you!”
“Reward?”
“Your piano music is exquisite…”
Fang Yuan realized he had discovered her identity as Qingyin.
“When can you play it for me?” Bo Yi gently stroked her hair. Thinking of her remarkable zither skills in the video, his gaze softened. His Yuanyuan was truly outstanding!
“We have time,” Fang Yuan replied nonchalantly.
“How about this?” Bo Yi’s eyes fixed on a distinctive pink diamond necklace. “It suits you perfectly.”
Fang Yuan’s fair skin would undoubtedly complement pink diamonds.
Fang Yuan: “I don’t want it….”
Bo Yi: “You can keep it even if you don’t wear it.”
Fang Yuan:”… There’s really no need.”
In the conference room at Cheng Ming’s headquarters, the executives presented their work for the season as though traversing on thin ice. They attentively absorbed the company’s developmental directives and the resolutions to intricate issues.
Only upon Cheng Mohan declaring, “Meeting adjourned,” did a collective sigh of relief permeate the room, and the attendees exited the meeting chamber.
“The boss’s presence is too overpowering. 1 felt like I was going to suffocate…”
“Yeah, I was sweating throughout the entire session…”
“Every time the boss returns, it feels like life and death. Yet, once he leaves, there’s a strange longing.”
“Don’t be deluded. How could the boss be interested in ordinary folks like us? If he were to seek a companion, it would undoubtedly be a woman from a compatible background…”
“I wonder what kind of woman could endure the boss’s aura. Regardless, it’s intimidating…”
