“Yes, I bought the office that my company operates out of as well. I own another unit on the 20th floor as well. That one I have rented out. And… that’s about it.” Feng Zeyu told Shu Yan about all the properties that he had purchased over the years.
Shu Yan was literally stunned silence. She thought he was just a noob but, as it turned out, he was a master-level player. He would become a landlord in the future!
“Did your father know that you are so well off?” Shu Yan was curious about his father’s attitude toward all these.
“The money that I earned have nothing to do with them. Besides, it doesn’t matter how well off I am, there is no way I will give them the house left to me by my grandparents.” Feng Zeyu misunderstood what Shu Yan was trying to get it but he addressed her question anyway.
“Then we see eye to eye on that. One can only be familial when their parents are loving. My parents gave all of their love to my three brothers. My sisters and I were like stepchildren. The only reason that we were able to grow up was because we were resilient. Truth was, I had already been sold off once in that marriage. That being said, what Lao Xia said before was right too. They were my parents after all so I can’t just ignore them. Anyways, I will pay them however much my brothers do in the future. Nobody can point fingers at me that way,” said Shu Yan to Feng Zeyu.
“Yep. I agree. When he aged, I will just do what was necessary over new years and holidays and that would be that.”
Great. Now that they saw eye to eye on that. That problem was solved.
“You travel to City Han all the time. You have businesses over there?” His bodyguard business had already extended all the way to City Han. His company must be quite sizeable.
“I have a branch office there. It was managed by one of my comrade-in-arms. In addition to that, I have branch offices in City Jing and City Yang as well. The plan is to open up another one in City Han this year.”
“How many employees are there?” Having branch offices in all the major cities like City Han, City Jing and City Yang. They were more sizeable than Yanxue.
“Close to 1,000.” Feng Zeyu hadn’t checked in the last few days. He didn’t know the exact number.
A thousand employees? That was one big bodyguard company. That being said, was a bodyguard company that size allowed by the government?
As the two talked, they arrived at their offices without realizing it. Feng Zeyu hesitated for a little and let Shu Yan go inside first.
“What? Am I that unpresentable?” asked Shu Yan with her brows raised.
“No, it’s me.”
Shu Yan gave him a stare before she reached her hand out and wrapped it around his arm. “We are dating openly. There’s nothing shameful about that. Let’s go.”
Even Feng Zeyu’s ears turned red. This was his first time being so closed to a female and he could pick up Shu Yan’s scent. His body went stiff.
Shu Yan was a little tired holding onto Feng Zeyu’s arm that way and she asked, frowning, “How tall are you?”
After she had lost the extra weight, this body was slightly prettier than her own and it had very good skin. The problem was its height. Shu Yan was 1.65 meters but this body was only 1.58 meters. 7 centimeters of difference was a lot.
“1.82 meter,” said Feng Zeyu as he turned toward Shu Yan. Smiling, he suddenly added, “It’s fine. I like short girls.”
Shu Yan flung his arm away and stomped away in her heels.
Feng Zeyu, still standing at the same spot, had no idea what was wrong with what he said. By the time he ran up to her, Shu Yan had already gotten inside of an elevator and was gone. He walked into his office, dazed, and didn’t even realize it when he had slammed into Mao Weiping.
“What’s the matter? Why are you so out of it?” asked Mao Weiping, worried.
“I think I had said something wrong.” Feng Zeyu had recollected himself.
“What did you say?”
“I told Shu Yan that I like short girls. Was it wrong of me to say that? I just want to convey to her that I like her the way that she is,” said Feng Zeyu with his brows furrowed.
