Nian Xiaomu: “…!!”
This was awkward.
“Good night!” As soon as she replied to him, she turned around to enter her room, but was stopped because he was holding her back.
Nian Xiaomu turned to face him with a look of bewilderment.
As Yu Yuehan stared back at her nervous little face, he pointed his slender finger at his own handsome face and said, “We haven’t kissed each other good night.”
Nian Xiaomu: “…”
Before she could even react, he had already stooped down to give her a peck on the lips.
Then, straightening his body, he reached out to pat her on the head and walked off in satisfaction.
For a long time, Nian Xiaomu could not snap back to her senses and stood rooted to the ground in front of the door. Then, her fingers reached up to her lips that had just been kissed by Yu Yuehan.
Liar!
He had pointed at his face, but kissed her on the lips!
Infuriated and embarrassed at the same time, Nian Xiaomu covered her face with her hands and ran into her room, slamming the door with all her might!
The next morning.
While everyone was still asleep, Nian Xiaomu sneaked out of the Yu Family villa and hailed a taxi to work.
Seated in her own office and staring at the documents on the computer screen, Nian Xiaomu could not register a single word in her head.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of the kiss from the ball as well as his confession that came out of nowhere…
Everything that had happened was just like a dream.
It was so shocking that even up until now, she still could not believe that it was real.
After spacing out for a long time, the employees began to stream into the public relations department.
Nian Xiaomu had just stepped out of the office and was about to hand out some instructions when the employees in the department started to surround her.
“Manager Nian, we heard that Fan Yu also showed up at the ball yesterday. Is that true?”
“… Yes.”
Immediately, the image of Fan Yu’s lonesome figure looking out at the moon from the window flashed past Nian Xiaomu’s mind.
Since she was suddenly dragged away by Yu Yuehan and that episode had happened immediately afterward, she had completely forgotten about Fan Yu’s incident.
She wondered if he had changed into a new pair of trousers after she left.
Blinking her eyes, she recalled the strange way that Fan Yu had looked at her yesterday.
Then, a few female colleagues started shrieking and disrupted her thoughts.
“Ah! My little hubby had actually shown up at the ball! Manager Nian, please show us the photographs you took of him!”
“Please!”
“I beg of you!”
“…”
Seeing this scene unfold before her, Nian Xiaomu quickly remembered what it was like when Fan Yu had appeared at the ball.
No matter where he went, he seemed immensely popular.
“Hey, hey, you guys should tone it down. Manager Nian was there to discuss work. Do you think that she is as boy-crazy as you all are? Anyway, while Fan Yu is very charming, you must not forget that the Fan Corporation has entered City H and will become our greatest rival in the near future.”
One of the employees dropped a gentle reminder.
The financial market was saturated in City H and was largely under the control of the Yu Corporation.
For Fan Yu to establish a foothold here, he would not only have to open up new markets, but would also have to take over part of the Yu Corporation’s share of the market in the shortest time possible.
There would definitely be plenty of opportunities for them to exchange blows soon!
As soon as these words were spoken, the secretary delivered a document over.
“Manager Nian, we just received news that the people from the Fan Corporation are meeting an important and regular client of ours!”
Speak of the devil!
Nian Xiaomu took the document from her hands and frowned as she skimmed through the paperwork.
“I remember that President Luo is our old client and that we have worked together for six years. He wouldn’t simply go back on his word like this. Who is the person meeting with him?”
Hearing this, the secretary replied, “It’s Fan Yu.”
“…” He had gone there personally?
The secretary pointed at the paper in Nian Xiaomu’s hand and continued, “It seems like they have arranged to meet at a luxurious Japanese restaurant. I’ve written the address in the document.”
