CHAPTER 201 - PROGRESS(PART I)

Maybe Qian Wan and I had a lot in common, but after hearing my words, he patted my shoulder and ordered some dishes as he said to me, It's like this, I was also a problematic student when I was in high school. At that time, I couldn't take it anymore, even my dad didn't want to bother with me anymore.

Basically, everyone would go through a period of youthful rebellion, this is very normal, I smiled, and chatted with Qian Wan for a bit. Qian Wan's things were pretty much done, I took the menu he passed to me, I ordered a few more things, and also ordered a glass of soda. As for the alcohol, forget it, I don't want to drink with Qian Wan since there's no need to think about it, I will definitely not win against him.

Seeing that I had only ordered the soda water, Qian Wan seemed to understand my thoughts and laughed rudely: What? Have your alcohol tolerance not increased?

In reality, my alcohol tolerance had indeed improved by a lot, but I didn't think that I could compare to Qian Wan just based on the increase in my alcohol tolerance. One must know that for people like Qi Hao and him, they were all existences that wandered around the various wineries, and for them, mixed red and yellow was a very common sight, let alone simply drinking a single type of alcohol. Thus, I bluntly replied without any good feelings, No.

Maybe Qian Wan also understood my thoughts, he only laughed and said one more sentence: Actually, this sort of thing like alcohol, comes out because you drink a lot. Of course, there are many people who are born with good alcohol tolerance.

For some reason, they chatted for over half an hour, and then talked about a lot of other topics. Of course, none of them had anything to do with each other, so when they returned to school, they ate and drank to their heart's content. It was already late.

The next morning, I was woken up by Chen Tao's call. Initially, I was extremely impatient, but when I saw the caller ID displayed on the screen, the annoyance in my heart immediately disappeared. I immediately got up and cleared my throat, then picked up the phone: Sister Tao.

Although I cleared my throat, I was still unable to hide the heroic and brave Chen Tao: Did you sleep?

Hearing this, I could even imagine her slightly raising her eyebrows on the other end of the phone with a hint of amusement in her eyes. Seeing that she wasn't angry, I was really relieved, but still smiled embarrassedly: I went to eat an midnight snack with Qian Wan last night, it was a bit late.

Regarding my report of my trip, Chen Tao didn't mind, but she still said: Un, it's good to have a good relationship with Qian Wan, his family's education has always been good, if he treats you as a friend, then you are a true friend, if there's anything I can do, I can help you with it.

I was clear on this point, so I nodded my head to express my agreement. After that, I heard Chen Tao continue to speak, Come to the company later on, come over for lunch at 12 o'clock. Don't eat lunch anymore, come over to the company to eat together.

Knowing that this was probably an important matter, coupled with the fact that I had yet to meet the person in charge of the non-student loan, I decisively agreed. Okay.

In fact, it's impossible even if I don't want to. If Chen Tao wants me to go to the company, can it be that I have to say No, I don't want to sleep? Then I'm just courting death.

After hanging up, I looked at the clock. It was already 10: 53, and it was not long before 12: 00. I set up an 11: 20 alarm clock on my cell phone. For me, 27 minutes was also a precious sleeping time.

After the alarm clock rang, I got up in a daze, brushed my teeth, and used cold water to wash my face. In this kind of weather, using cold water to wash my face was too easy to wake up from.

After I woke up, I changed into a new set of clothes and added on to my woolen shirt. When the sky started to get cold, it became extremely cold very quickly, and when I left the dorm, I was surprised to find that I had directly bumped into Li Bin.

Seeing that I was holding onto my phone and the screen was still lit, Li Bin immediately retreated a few steps: What are you doing, why aren't you walking down the road? If you bumped into a beauty, that would be good, but if you bumped into someone else, then you would really die.

I knew that he was talking about the matter of me and him almost kissing earlier, but due to the fact that I was handling the information at that time, I didn't pay too much attention to it. To be honest, since it didn't happen, I didn't think much of it, but looking at Li Bin's frightened expression, I couldn't help but let out a dark line. Don't worry, you're shorter than me, you won't be able to touch it.

Li Bin, who was suddenly shocked by me, ...

Seeing that he choked on my words, I smiled complacently. Due to the lack of time, I didn't have the mood to waste on him. I waved my hands at him and headed straight for the company.

When we arrived at the company, the first thing I did was enter the resting room. Once I entered, a sweet smell immediately entered my nose and I saw Chen Tao and Old Hei cooking hotpot.

To be honest, I almost forgot, Chen Tao is a loyal fan of hotpot.

After sitting down, Chen Tao handed me a disposable plastic bowl and a pair of disposable chopsticks as usual. She then scooped up a spoonful of food and placed it in my bowl.

Seeing Chen Tao being so calm, I knew that Miss Chen was definitely the same. She bought too many ingredients and put them away too much, so there were definitely some that she wouldn't eat!

I think I might not finish it.

After eating until the middle of the meal, Chen Tao stood up to pour ice water. While Chen Tao was taking the opportunity to grab a cup, I went over to Old Hei and asked him: Brother Hei, can you explain to me what is going on?

Understanding what I mean, Old Hei smiled helplessly: It's not like your Sister Tao has been like this once or twice, it's good that you get used to it.

Although he said it like that, but I was still very sad: No, Brother Hei, why didn't you stop me? From the way things are, I'm afraid that I will become a stubborn person under Sister Tao's command today!

The Old Hei and Chen Tao definitely went to buy ingredients together. With a free labour like the Old Hei, it's impossible for Chen Tao to not use it, so at this time, I complained to the Old Hei that I did not find the wrong person to meet.

CHAPTER 202 - PROGRESS(PART II)

Try and see if you can stop me, Old Hei's expression seemed to say that his waist didn't hurt when I was standing there, Your Sister Tao is the boss, have you ever seen an employee that can manage their boss's purchases before?

His words made a lot of sense, and I had no way to refute him. I could only close my mouth and think for a while, before speaking: Then Brother Hei, you can do it.

What a joke, the action on the CD-ROM only promotes Old Hei, why should I follow and push myself to death?

Seeing that I was so disloyal and prepared to abandon him, Old Hei looked at me in grief, but right at this time, Chen Tao returned, so he didn't say anything.

Chen Tao, who was carrying water in, saw the two of us standing so close to each other and raised her eyebrows curiously: What are you guys doing? Mutual gay?"

Old Hei was a primitive person so he didn't understand what this meant, but I did understand. Adding on the matter of the dormitory and Li Bin, my face darkened, and I decisively pulled away from Old Hei. At the same time, I was a little surprised that Chen Tao actually knew about gay?

Miss Chen, aren't you being too fashionable?

Even though I had decided to abandon Old Hei, I still fought for a long time and settled a few pots. In this period of time, Chen Tao was also holding onto her own cup, leisurely chatting about Xu Tongtong and Qi Hao's progress.

Unexpectedly, I found out that Qi Hao and I met last night, and the progress at the gym during the day was pretty good as well. Sometimes, when both sides didn't have breakfast, Qi Hao would even ask Xu Tongtong for breakfast.

Especially towards people like Qi Hao, whose acting skills are right in front of them. Honestly speaking, if there wasn't some big problem, if it didn't succeed, I felt that it would be impossible.

As for why Xu Tongtong rejected so decisively, it's because Xu Tongtong wanted to create a character, and she won't bend her waist for the sake of the influential families. Honestly speaking, I felt that it was a bit silly at the start, but when Xu Tongtong showed this character to me alive, I started to feel moved.

But towards Xu Tongtong, although I don't have much control over myself, but if it was her, I could control myself well. After all, compared to my own life, compared to my own beauty, my life is more important. No matter what, Xu Tongtong was just a dubious person.

Xu Tongtong and Qi Hao's progress was very good, it was a good news, and it looks like before long, I can make another seven kilowatts of electric light. After all, while they were eating, something must happen, and for that to happen, I have to control the field.

But even if I had that kind of confidence, I still couldn't help but ask: Then Sister Tao, when will Xu Tongtong be able to eat at the same table as Qi Hao?

Hearing me ask that, Chen Tao did not think too much into it, and slowly drank a mouthful of tea: Xu Tongtong will contact you.

Seeing her indifferent expression, I immediately knew that I had probably asked a foolish question. Xu Tongtong was a person who had her own thoughts, but for Chen Tao to be able to do such a thing, she was not someone who had little desire to control. On the contrary, I was afraid that Chen Tao's desire to control her own body and mind had exceeded my expectations. Since that was the case, then there was a high chance that Chen Tao had the opposite opinion from him on this matter, and then, the two of them left unhappily.

For the sake of success, Chen Tao had no choice but to nod her head. Thinking up to this point, I sighed from the bottom of my heart, Xu Tongtong is really a wondrous woman, to actually dare to refute Chen Tao …

I had already figured it out, how could I not understand what he meant? But I don't know how to smooth things over, at this moment I heard Old Hei clear his throat: Miss Chen, are there still any vegetables? It's a little bit greasy to put in some vegetables to soak in the oil.

Although Old Hei eats everything, he is indeed a little afraid of oil, and it is not that it is difficult to eat spicy food, but he can endure it. I think that there is a high chance that he is from Guangdong, but towards Old Hei, he is even more mysterious than Chen Tao, I did not ask him, but in fact, I more or less did not dare to ask.

To me, this hotpot is nothing, but to Old Hei, it is indeed a little oily. However, Old Hei is always the kind of person who can endure anything, so I understand that he said this to ease the atmosphere.

Chen Tao lifted her eyelids and gave him a bland look, before spitting out two words: Troublesome.

However, he still got up and went to a small room in the lounge to bring out a bowl of vegetables. He then poured them all into the room without thinking.

Me: …

Suddenly, I didn't know what to say. I just felt that the sacrifice to ease the atmosphere was a little too excessive.

After I finished eating, I drank some water, since I could not eat anymore. When I looked at Old Hei again, he seemed to be a little full, but he still continued to eat the rest of the food that was already cooked in the pot without a change in his expression.

In response, I could only clasp my hands together and say, Goodbye.

Of course, it's impossible for Chen Tao to call me here only to talk about Qi Hao and Xu Tongtong, and then we can eat a meal.

This matter, was what I was worried about the entire time. After Old Hei finished eating and tidied up everything, I did not know how long I had stood up and walked for, but Chen Tao suddenly called out to me. Li Fei, come over here and sit.

I took a deep breath. Although I didn't care, I didn't want my new colleagues to be difficult to get along with. I also didn't want Chen Tao to think that I was actually still worried about my own interests being divided, so when I sat down, I intentionally revealed a relaxed smile. Are you sure my new colleagues will be coming over soon? He was finally coming. If he didn't come tomorrow, he was afraid the headlines would be 'Shocked'! The general manager of a certain company died suddenly from having too much business! ' Alright."

After Chen Tao heard my words, she was successfully amused by me. Her rare smile went so deep: You can talk about stuff now? It seems like he's not tired enough. Alright, I'll tell him to go back first and wait for a few more months before coming back.

Don't, don't, don't. Even though I know that Chen Tao was joking, I was truly terrified. Only I know how tired I have been these past few days, and of course, Li Bin should also know a little, Really, no, then I will die.

CHAPTER 203 - NEW COLLEAGUE

Although Chen Tao knew that I was only joking, she still couldn't help but scold me while laughing: I don't have any ambition.

I understand that Chen Tao is not really blaming me, so I was very bold: Yes yes yes, I have the least ambition. Sister Tao, it's better if you quickly let him come.

What's the rush? Chen Tao shot me a sideways glance. You don't know who's coming, do you?

Honestly speaking, I really did not know who my new colleague was. However, after hearing what Chen Tao said, I was stunned for a moment. Could it be someone else I know?

But there are only a few people that I know of, other than Li Bin, the others are all in Synthetic World. Chen Tao has always disdained synthesis of the other side's ways of doing things, but Chen Tao would never hire anyone from Synthetic World.

However, I didn't think that Chen Tao would know about Li Bin. Li Bin had basically put away his wings by now, and had only maintained the quantity of customers that he didn't have, not ten of them. According to his complaints when we ate at night and drank together, those few were originally intending to look for me, but after hearing that he and I were roommates who were absolutely safe and reliable.

Although I more or less felt that I had let Li Bin down in the beginning, but right now, Li Bin really did owe me that. Every time I thought about that, he would immediately ask me to withdraw from school.

Even if I were to be magnanimous now, that matter would always be a knot in my heart, a barrier that Li Bin and I would never be able to break through. Although it was not the last straw that broke the camel's back, it was definitely the last straw that weighed everything before it was placed on top of the camel.

Seeing me deep in thought, Chen Tao immediately understood that she didn't know who her new colleague was, and at this time, the door to the resting room that Chen Tao closed up casually was knocked on as well.

After Chen Tao said that, the door opened, and I was just unable to guess who it was, but in the end, a lady who pushed the door opened.

Her wavy hair, white shirt, black suit and skirt, black hair, black high heels, and professional female attire were all standard, but her makeup was extremely pretty. She had wavy hair, white shirt, black suit and skirt, black hair, black high heels, and professional female clothing, but her makeup was also standard, but she had a wavy hair, white shirt, black suit and black buttock, black hair, black high-heels, and professional female clothing.

She paused for a moment and looked at me. She did not look down on me because of my age.

I really did not expect Chen Tao to actually recruit a female staff, this truly made me surprised, but after thinking about it, it seems that there was nothing that was impossible, right? There are times when women are more ruthless than men.

However, I don't know if this woman did it on purpose, but when she bent down to face me at this angle, I could faintly see the black lace inside …

Damn.

The three of us nodded at her and she stood up straight, standing with such grace that it made people feel extremely comfortable. Then, we heard from Chen Tao: Li Fei, this is her new colleague, she is called Ye Yuhuan, in the future she will work under you, you can decide on the position. However, she is not the only one who is in charge of non-students, she will even recruit a team, which means 12 people, you have to choose a team. Team Leader's Benefits... Our Limin Corporation is not some useless company, I think you should understand.

At first, I did not understand why Chen Tao would want to say this in front of Ye Yuhuan, but when Chen Tao looked at me, there was an unknown meaning, I immediately understood, Ye Yuhuan is probably a good person, but from the perspective of Limin Corporation, it is not big, and adding on to that the profits, if it does not stimulate Ye Yuhuan's abilities, then the meaning of Chen Tao bringing her over is not big.

Of course, I'm only guessing where Chen Tao got Ye Yuhuan from.

He did not give Ye Yuhuan any position from the start, it was most likely to make him understand that Chen Tao did not take her abilities seriously at all. He wanted her to be in his hands forever so that he would not have any other thoughts. This point is something that I think Chen Tao is very clear of as well.

I noticed that after Chen Tao said this, Ye Yuhuan's gaze towards me carried a hint of unknown meaning, as if she was trying to curry favor with me. Honestly speaking, this kind of beautiful woman, and perhaps a very capable beauty with the intention to curry favor with me, made me feel extremely comfortable. I nodded to show my understanding, before Chen Tao spoke a few more words.

After that, Ye Yuhuan introduced herself. She had talked a little too much, and she gave a general introduction of her own situation, she was older than me by quite a bit, she was already 25 years old this year, but had maintained herself well, and she also worked in this line of work for her superior companies, so much so that when she said her name, I felt that she was familiar with it, and looking at Chen Tao's calm and arrogant appearance, I knew, that it was probably an extremely famous company. She was probably the manager of that company, so why did she jump into Limin Corporation to be a normal employee.

This reason was extremely simple. The Limin Corporation's share was high, and it was from the higher ups chasing after the debt, meaning that if someone wanted to borrow money from her, they would have to leave immediately. The ones in charge of chasing the debt are the few of us, and she doesn't need to worry about the debt.

Of course, if it was a formal place like this, there would definitely be a base salary. Unfortunately, we do things in private that cannot be exposed, so naturally, we don't have a bottom salary.

But to know, even if one didn't have a base salary, surpassing five digits in a month's salary was a piece of cake. If Ye Yuhuan were to go on the street, she might even reach six digits in a month's time.

At least I don't need to worry about food and clothes right now, and I can give my parents money every month. I'm even planning to buy a low-key car next year, which belongs to me.

In this line of work, the pros were profiteering anyway.

Don't know what was on her mind, but Ye Yuhuan said that she was a golden bachelor, but seeing that she was joking, we just assumed that she was just trying to build a good relationship with us.

Old Hei and Chen Tao were at a slightly higher level than him, so Ye Yuhuan wasn't directly subordinate to them. Ye Yuhuan only needed to know their existences, and there was no need for him to know them, I'm Li Fei, you can call me whatever you want, since you can tell that I'm not that old. I'll come over with you next time, I'll first give you ten people and see how you're doing.

CHAPTER 204 - TEASING

After hearing what I said, Chen Tao looked at me with satisfaction, but I noticed unwillingness flashing across Ye Yuhuan's eyes. I also noticed the stiff smile on her face.

After all, we can't let Ye Yuhuan think that we purposely wanted to demoralize her. If she knew that we were doing it on purpose, she would definitely do it, and after enduring for a few days, it would be fine. What we need is to see her true thoughts.

Although the way Limin Corporation pursues debts is much more gentle than that of many other companies and their internal relations are also harmonious, so there are many things that are not directly stated in public, but this does not mean that the Limin Corporation is some kind of formal private loan company, and the things we do are not necessarily clean and tidy. If Ye Yuhuan is a little less vicious, then she will become the biggest shortcoming in Limin Corporation.

Yes, the title on my body will be transferred to her. This isn't a good thing, and I won't be happy about such a thing. You have to know, this kind of gap is different from mine, what Ye Yuhuan created, will be the consequences of completely destroying our Limin Corporation.

However, Ye Yuhuan adjusted herself very quickly. After being stiff for just an instant, she revealed a smile, and nodded: Alright Director Li, I understand.

After that, I sat in the resting room and chatted for a while, they seemed to be more familiar with each other, and after being quiet for a while, Chen Tao looked as though she had picked up a teacup from the table to drink, but in reality, she was calm and collected. After receiving Chen Tao's signal, I stood up, looked at Ye Yuhuan, and nodded: Come with me, I will bring you to my office.

After all, I am Ye Yuhuan's direct superior in the future, so the next step would naturally be for Ye Yuhuan and I to be familiar with each other. Not to mention that Chen Tao had the intention to re-value Ye Yuhuan, of course, this re-use of Ye Yuhuan referred to him being an official under me, which was basically under my jurisdiction.

This is the first time I have ever entered my own office. Normally, I would be either in the resting room or the conference room, and I rarely spend a day at my office. I only know where my own office is, and I don't know what my own office has become like.

There was a dark gray sofa-like computer chair, an arc shaped table, a table for the guest, and a tea set. The decoration in the office was dim, and it looked simple, but it also exuded a sense of luxury, because anyone who knew the goods would be able to see the value of the furniture here.

First, I sat on the sofa and gestured for Ye Yuhuan to take a seat. Ye Yuhuan then took a seat not far away from me, and I took out my phone. In fact, I had already decided on a person a few days ago, but I didn't expect Chen Tao to play any more games, so I picked ten people from the sofa.

Adding Ye Yuhuan's WeChat, I pushed these ten people's WeChat to her, but didn't say anything more. After she added them, I only told her their names, genders, and ages.

Initially, I thought Ye Yuhuan would ask, but I didn't expect Ye Yuhuan to only comment on everyone for a bit, and then nothing happened.

Seeing that I was staring at her, Ye Yuhuan chuckled: Director Li, do you have any orders?

No, Ye Yuhuan's smile was just too seductive, I shifted my gaze away and cleared my throat, You don't know anything, so you can just ask me. Among these ten people, if one of them suddenly breaks off, your test would be considered a failure.

To Limin Corporation, chasing after debts was indeed not a difficult matter, but if it could save them a little, with less trouble, it would naturally be good as well. Although Limin Corporation's methods were considered kind and gentle, and did not feel that it was necessary to expend a lot of effort, and could still earn a lot of money, regarding the matter of chasing debts, if someone really ignored everything and simply threw the broken pot down, then Limin Corporation would be the most troublesome one.

This sort of thing was always about luck. If one was lucky, they would be able to receive the money they should receive. If one was not lucky, they would be able to force others to sell their house to repay their money. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Every time Limin Corporation chase after a debt, it's actually just dancing on the tip of a blade.

That's why I said those words to Ye Yuhuan. Generally speaking, only nine to ten people in a thousand can speak of this, but if Ye Yuhuan could speak of ten people, she would appear … Don't tell me if it's bad luck or something. It's pure incompetence.

Those who were capable, even if the borrower didn't want to return the money from the start, some people who were capable could still maintain their relationship and even use some techniques to make them pay in instalments. This was a question of whether they were capable or not.

When Ye Yuhuan heard me say this, she also understood my intentions, so she nodded towards me. I don't know if it was because the space in my office wasn't big, but the air-conditioning was especially effective, and it seemed like she was hot and dry. Then, she subconsciously tugged at her collar and undid the first button of her shirt.

Honestly speaking, it's not like I've never met someone who's as plump as him. He Xi is a heavenly beauty, but this is the first time I've met such a person who was full of grace and womanly charm. Although I'm not a rookie, I'm not as experienced as Qi Hao, and I would definitely be moved by Ye Yuhuan's actions.

Fortunately, my acting skills weren't bad, and I was able to conceal my emotions during this period of time. Therefore, Ye Yuhuan didn't notice anything strange, but because I didn't set my gaze back on Ye Yuhuan, I didn't see her emotions.

After chatting with Ye Yuhuan for a while longer, Ye Yuhuan suddenly asked me: Director Li, do you have a girlfriend?

I will carefully think about what other people should say. It's because Chen Tao has told me before, that when there are many people who accidentally say something, you can pretend that it's nothing and answer them like it's nothing. It's very likely that it's a big mistake and it's likely that it will lead to an irreparable consequence.

So when I heard Ye Yuhuan's words, my originally relaxed mood instantly tensed up, and then laughed and joked around: This should be a private problem, right? I think I can choose not to answer.

CHAPTER 205 - REMINDER

This is merely the first time Ye Yuhuan and I have met each other. Fine, even if we share a mutual understanding of each other's reek and even hate each other for being late, this does not mean that we have not even known each other for half an hour and she would be allowed to ask such questions.

This wasn't some blind date meeting, he needed to know the other party's background so that he wouldn't marry the wrong person.

Not to mention that Ye Yuhuan and I were only of the upper class. The reason she asked me this question could also be because she wanted to get closer to me, or it could also be because she wanted to probe out something.

Hearing me say that, Ye Yuhuan was stunned for a moment, then understood something: I'm sorry Director Li, I was presumptuous of you.

In reality, I didn't expect her to be so frank and didn't mind the awkwardness at all. Giving an apology instead made me a little embarrassed, but it wasn't that hard of an issue for me. I smiled and began to lay down my superior's cards: Un, it's fine. Just be careful next time.

After that, I explained some general rules of Limin Corporation and told her the mode of lending, the acceptable sariras and some preferential treatment in Limin Corporation. Only then did I pretty much prepare to return to the resting room.

Before we went back to the lounge, I said, I'll check your results on next month's repayment day. During this time, you can also look for your own extension staff, but remember, you're not allowed to have a situation that has a expiration date of more than five days. You can go to the office first.

At the beginning, I had thought that with so many computers, it might be too expensive. In the end, Old Hei told me that he bought them from someone else, and there were only a few hundred screens, not to mention the keyboard and mouse, they weren't really good either. The cost was already very low.

After splitting up from Ye Yuhuan, when I returned back to the resting area, I heard Chen Tao and the Old Hei discussing what to eat for lunch. Looking at Old Hei, whose chin looked as though it was about to fall down, I said, …

I am very worried about Old Hei's figure.

Seeing me arrive, Chen Tao nodded at me, and the first thing she asked is: Li Fei, do you want to stay for the afternoon tea? What do you want to eat?

There's nothing much to do today, so it doesn't matter if I stay or not. "I told Ye Yuhuan that I want to test her.

But before Chen Tao could say anything, Old Hei spoke out: Of course it's no problem, she's yours now, you can do whatever you want.

Honestly speaking, when I first heard these words, I felt that it was very ambiguous. When I saw the profound look in Old Hei's eyes, I immediately understood that he really had other intentions. This made me speechless for a moment, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes: Brother Hei, can you be more serious? Don't keep on thinking about these things.

After being said like that, Old Hei didn't feel awkward at all. Actually, I have always felt that Old Hei's skin was very thick, no matter what others say about him, he wouldn't change his expression on the spot, he looks like someone who doesn't have any feelings. In fact, I feel that he has the best temper out there, no matter if it's outside or inside, Old Hei would never be the red-faced one to always be the peacemaker.

Of course, it's not that he's neutral, I think he definitely has his own thoughts and temper, but among us, there's always someone who has to step down from the stage and dissolve the awkward atmosphere, especially when we didn't notice it, and accidentally said the wrong words, at this time, the sense of existence of the Old Hei surfaced. Otherwise, he would habitually become a transparent person.

At this time, Chen Tao also suddenly placed her own teacup on the table, her voice was not loud, and was also a little heavy, if it was anyone else, they would definitely think that she was angry, but Old Hei and I did not, although the first time we saw Chen Tao do this, both of us subconsciously shut our mouths, and then both of us became nervous, but after experiencing such a long period of interaction, we had quite a good understanding of each other, so Old Hei and I did not feel that Chen Tao was angry, so I directly sat down, looking like a child waiting to be lectured by a parent.

Speaking of which, Chen Tao smiled at me, but I had a bad premonition, Old Hei has also reminded me, is it that every time you and Qi Hao go to those places, you'll always be moving with him?

Although this isn't the first time she has discussed this with me, I can't help but feel a little embarrassed. No matter how much Chen Tao resembles a big sister, she is still not my blood related sister, but a boss who has not even known me for half a year. Furthermore, her appearance and temperament are not ordinary, even her family background is not the same as mine.

After taking a deep breath to barely calm my emotions, I nodded. I knew that it was very likely that Chen Tao was going to say this, so I didn't hide anything and roughly told him everything.

Even the bar that time, of course, I couldn't possibly tell them all the details, but after hearing what I said, Chen Tao's expression seemed to be a little off. My heart tightened, I knew that I had done something wrong and obediently waited for Chen Tao to speak.

Then, he heard Chen Tao say: I didn't tell you before because the investigation wasn't strict and I didn't expect you to go crazy with Qi Hao. Today, let me remind you this: from now on, you better not be moving in front of Qi Hao and it's best not to carry him on your back.

Hearing this, I was really stunned, because in my mind, I should be playing with Qi Hao, that way Qi Hao would be able to trust me, and feel that I should be at the top of the mountain with him. However, Chen Tao's intention was that it would be better for me to not be reckless, which made me a little surprised.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, with a slightly surprised expression, Chen Tao knew that I didn't understand her intentions, so she continued to speak: There is a reason why I didn't want you to move, previously, I didn't want to talk about you anymore, there is no meaning in talking about it, after all, what has happened has already happened, at that time, you did want to gain trust, but now you have to do it. Because of the strict investigation recently, and the type that is extremely strict, Qi Hao is obviously not afraid, but you are different.

Although I said that you are following Qi Hao, it would still be alright in the beginning. But now, if he was careful or wanted to shoot you, or used some other method to prove that you are following him, then you are dead. Don't just look at how Qi Hao is calling you brother. If anything happens, you're the first one to be pushed out.

CHAPTER 206 - SMALL FRICTIONS

Even though I know this logic, I had never actually thought that Qi Hao would do such a thing. My heart had always been in a contradictory state, but towards Qi Hao, I understood that he would not treat me the way Qian Wan treated me.

From the surface, anyone would think that my relationship with Qi Hao was better, that Qi Hao and I had a very strong relationship, and that even I myself had the misconception that Qian Wan's advice and goodwill were always unintentionally, and sometimes, it would be very hard to catch on to it. Looking at Qi Hao, I often played together with him, and had also encountered many things.

But if it was just an upgraded version, it was nothing to Qi Hao.

However, although I often turned into a philosopher and spoke of everything with wisdom, this didn't mean that I became someone who could see everything clearly outside of the realm of transcendence. I am also a person, and I also have emotions, and I naturally have a good impression of people who have been together with me for a long time, especially people who haven't had any friction with me.

I am currently in the middle of reason and emotion, so I can be said to be very conflicted and conflicted. I clearly know what Chen Tao said, even if Qi Hao and I are ironclad brothers, if something were to happen to him, even if it would affect his life or a certain amount of benefits, I would still be the shield that he would push out, let alone if we aren't ironclad brothers anymore.

To be fair, Qi Hao had indeed treated me quite well, and now that he had called me out to him a few times, no matter how interesting or interesting it was, he would tell me that some of the times he met some of the things were not like that. He would even occasionally chat with me, and most of the time, it would be him who would send me an emoticon.

Seeing that I was silent, Chen Tao did not say anything, but quietly drank her tea and waited for my reply. After some time had passed, someone suddenly knocked the door, interrupting my thoughts, Chen Tao shouted: Come in.

After putting down the things, she left without saying anything else. Chen Tao opened the bag, inside was an exquisite big box, and when she opened it again, there were some sweet things inside. It seemed that while I was deep in thought, she had already decided on what to eat.

I took a bite and suddenly felt that it was so sweet that goosebumps rose all over my body. At this moment, for some reason, I suddenly said: Sister Tao, I have always understood.

Hearing me say that, Chen Tao laughed and stuffed a piece of pure black biscuit into my mouth. I took a bite, but didn't think that what was spread in my mouth was bitterness enough for me to vomit, especially when I felt goosebumps from the last bite. It could be said that this bite was as bitter as a pinch to hell, but I just wanted to live.

Looking at Ma Kailong and the biscuit in his hand, I seemed to have understood what Chen Tao meant.

Afterwards, when I left the company, it was still because He Ying called me to ask me out, and it was indeed because I hadn't seen He Ying for a while that I felt guilty towards this true girlfriend of mine. Furthermore, I didn't have anything to do, so I bid farewell to Chen Tao and the others and left.

On the way back to school, I couldn't help but sigh that Chen Tao was really my life's teacher. Not to mention the kindness she showed me, even if she reminded me time and time again, her benefits might still be mixed in with it.

This favor can be said to be heavy. Even if I don't do this job anymore, I'm afraid I won't be able to understand this favor.

When I came back to my senses, I realised that I was not too far away from He Ying and the rest's dormitory. Just as I was about to take out my phone to call He Ying, I suddenly raised my head and saw He Ying and Meng Yaran standing face to face, as if they were talking about something.

Because I was a bit far away, I couldn't really hear them clearly, but I could clearly see their expressions. Looking at their appearances, it seemed that they were arguing.

Honestly speaking, I think it's normal for the two of them to fight. One is my pursuer, and the other is my real girlfriend, basically speaking, it's a love rival, although the pursuer's goal is still for me to verify, but this doesn't stop the woman's sixth sense from sensing Meng Yaran's feelings for me, nor does it prevent He Ying's feathers to explode and be on guard against Meng Yaran.

I sighed and walked over. They stopped talking and just glared at each other, but luckily, there was no one around, no one around. If a busybody were to record a video and post it to the forum where they knew about the Weibo post, I might get angry again.

Seeing me appear so suddenly, He Ying did not know why, but she looked like a mother who was protecting her child, and immediately held onto my hand, causing the way Meng Yaran and I were glaring at each other to disappear. In an instant, her voice became gentle: Brother Li, are you from the company? Are you tired?

Even though He Ying was very gentle in the past, but I have never felt such a soft and gentle mess as outrageous as this. However, knowing that she was swearing her sovereignty, I felt that it was funny in my heart, and also felt a little proud and happy. Thus, I patted her head in front of Meng Yaran: There's a meeting, I'm not tired, where do you want to go to?

Honestly speaking, although I do have some dirty thoughts towards Meng Yaran, but I can still tell who's the real one. It's not that I'm afraid of He Ying, but it's just that there aren't many people on the streets, and that there are a few of them. It's not a secret that He Ying is my girlfriend, and it's not like it's a secret, if people knew that I'm not helping my girlfriend and if they were to cause a ruckus, everyone would know about it.

Seeing that I gave him face, He Ying immediately laughed even more happily, and even calmly looked at Meng Yaran, seemingly secretly provoking him. Meng Yaran seemed to be clenching her teeth, but she still smiled and said to me: Director Li, teacher has asked me to find you to go to activity classroom meeting.

CHAPTER 207 - PICKED UP AGAIN

From the looks of it, Meng Yaran didn't say it on purpose to anger He Ying, but I also promised He Ying that I would go out with her to play. Furthermore, I haven't accompanied her properly for a period of time, so I do miss her a lot.

Seeing that I had stopped talking, Meng Yaran added: Director Li, this meeting is quite big. The professor hopes that if there is nothing else, you will be there.

It's fine if Meng Yaran doesn't say it like that, but her words made it seem like if I don't go, then I won't know what's important. Fortunately, He Ying had always been very considerate: Brother Li, if you have anything to do, then go and busy yourself. I'll wait in the dorm for you to come pick me up.

At this moment, I was actually very happy that I found He Ying. Her consideration and understanding towards him had always made me feel warm, so I patted her hand: Wait for me outside, I'll send you some money. You can play first, I'll go and find you later.

With that, I took out my cell phone and sent her 5,000 yuan. The reason why I didn't let her go back to the dorm to wait for me was very simple. That roommate of hers, honestly speaking, I don't like her, but she wanted to interfere in the matter between me and He Ying last time, and only when I paid her and helped her did that sort of help. Typically, if I let He Ying come down from the dorm this time and go back, that roommate of hers would probably say a few words.

Furthermore, He Ying was the one who arrived first, and in the end, because of my own matters, He Ying had to return to her dorm. Even if He Ying didn't feel that it was a big deal, I would have felt that it was simply too unfair to He Ying.

After confirming with He Ying again that she had enough money, he told her not to go too far, and that it was indeed not considered peaceful recently, and that it was still the same saying, as long as you were alone, regardless of whether it was the beauty of man, woman, or young, all of them would be dangerous, and that the ones that were good would be sold, and those that weren't good would have things that were useful and valuable.

But he could still guarantee the safety of the academy city's area. Although Wu Qi was the ruler here, he did not do those things, and with him here, he did not dare to do these things on his territory. Thinking about it this way, he still had to thank Wu Qi.

After I finished speaking, I followed Meng Yaran to the activity classroom. Upon entering, I realised that the person had pretty much arrived, and the principal had also arrived. It looks like Meng Yaran really wasn't lying to me.

Seeing my arrival, the principal also nodded his head, and pointed out a spot for me: Li Fei, you can sit there.

The seat was placed on the left side of the table, which obviously showed my position. After I sat down, what surprised me was that Meng Yaran sat right in front of me, and that's right, I had heard from the fatty that Meng Yaran was currently in charge of this project, and there were probably a lot of things that needed her to do. Meng Yaran's image was good, her mouth could speak, and her personality was also not bad.

After that, when all the teachers arrived, the meeting started as well. Actually, it was no different from when I came to this meeting, but I guess it was because of the collective meeting, and it would not be good if I was absent all the time, since the principal and the others were able to turn a blind eye to the matter of us lending to this school, it was entirely because of my participation. The Limin Corporation's funds were provided, but it didn't mean that everything could be solved just because the money was given.

Although I couldn't understand it, I had to pretend that Mmm, that's very reasonable. However, just as I was about to lose my focus, I suddenly felt something rubbing against my ankle.

Subconsciously, I lowered my head to take a look and saw a foot that was wrapped in black silk rubbing against it. In that instant, my fire started to burn, and there was only one person who dared to do so, and that is Meng Yaran.

Even when I saw her face to face with He Ying at that time, I didn't feel anything special. I didn't feel like I could not help but think of Meng Yaran as I used to feel that she had become a lot prettier and a lot more confident. But now that she's done it this way, I really want to be able to hold her under me and let her know that I was wrong.

Actually, if this long table of activity classroom was as wide as the long table in the Limin Corporation conference room, Meng Yaran wouldn't have been able to touch me either. Although my activity classroom is large, there are still many tables, and I also have a lot of things to hold, as well as bookshelves and sofas, etc., the long table used for meetings was basically just to make a point of having an extravagance, so I didn't buy it very wide, thus Meng Yaran was able to touch me just by lifting her leg. The key point is that she won't let others see it.

She unconsciously thought back to when Ye Yuhuan had unbuttoned her shirt in the office. Although it was possible that she had unwittingly made a move due to the overheating of the room, and I felt that it was hot while I was inside, it did not affect her from igniting the fire in my body at all.

Inwardly taking a deep breath, I could feel that a certain part of me was waking up. Fortunately, I was wearing a long coat which could perfectly cover my body. Otherwise, I really didn't know what to do.

After the meeting ended, the first thing I did was go to the restroom, wash my face with cold water a few times, and only then did I manage to calm down. After taking in a deep breath, I took out my phone and called He Ying.

Nodding my head, I used my clothes to wipe off the water droplets on my face. Where are you right now? Send a location to wait for me there, I'll go find you.

After exiting the washroom, I accidentally saw Meng Yaran at the door who had also just came out from it. Actually, I didn't feel awkward at all, since I was young, the washroom in the school is for both men and women, why is it so awkward, Meng Yaran also doesn't have that kind of bashful personality, I nodded at her, as though the person who did that kind of thing during a meeting wasn't her.

She was calm and collected, and she acted as if nothing had happened. I didn't know what to say, so I could only nod my head. Then, without saying anything else, I turned around and left.

CHAPTER 208 - ALMOST

When I got to He Ying's place, I saw that there were a lot of sweets in front of He Ying, and He Ying even affectionately drank another cup of milk tea, looking like she wanted to help me.

I walked to her side and sat down, then He Ying smiled at me. I had thought that you guys would at least have to wait until dinner time to adjourn.

That's right, when it comes to meetings, everyone thought that it would take two hours to start, including Limin Corporation meetings, so even if it was me, at the beginning, I thought that this meeting would be held for half a day. But what I didn't expect was that their meetings would be so simple and quick, with only the main points being stated, there wasn't even a single word of nonsense.

Me too, I said with a smile. Previously, meetings were quite time-consuming, but this one was unexpectedly short. Do you think the principal knows that I'm going on a date and won't hold me up?

The joke made He Ying's face flush red, and she probably understood the meaning of my words. She shyly glared at me, but her voice unconsciously became flirtatious: Brother Li!

Seeing her like this, my mood immediately improved. I put one hand around her waist, and with the other hand, I picked up a cup of milky tea. It could be said that my sweet heart was also sweet.

After accompanying He Ying in this shop for a while, when she had finished eating everything she had ordered, I went out to take a walk with her. What I didn't expect was that once I went out, I saw a familiar silhouette not too far away, which made me slightly stunned, and then immediately sensed that He Ying was bringing me over there. I subconsciously grabbed onto He Ying, but He Ying was somewhat confused as she turned around and looked at me: Brother Li?

The owner of the silhouette seemed to have noticed something and looked in our direction. After being stunned for a moment, he seemed to smile again, and then he turned around and disappeared into the crowd. I was thoroughly relieved when he said, I'm fine.

Looking at my expression, He Ying was a little confused, but she did not ask anything, only smiling, and continued to bring me towards the front.

Although that person seemed to have seen me and left politely, I was still afraid that she would be nearby. If an impulse came to greet me, I would be done for, so I still pulled He Ying back: I want to see the wireless mouse, buy a notebook, want to buy a mouse, otherwise it won't be comfortable.

The digital city and the place He Ying wanted to go were in two different directions. This way, he wouldn't bump into her again. I am not worried that He Ying will refute my opinion. He Ying has always been very obedient to me, no matter what, big or small, he would basically listen to me.

So when I pulled He Ying in a different direction, He Ying didn't show any dissatisfaction, but instead asked me a little curiously: Brother Li, did you buy a notebook? What does it look like?

Speaking of which, I really didn't tell He Ying that I bought a notebook. Seeing her curious face, and even a little jealous, I felt that it was really funny.

To my surprise, but also within reason, He Ying almost subconsciously turned her head into a rattle drum. No, no, how can this be? Brother Li, this is too wasteful of your money. Originally, even if I wanted the computer, it wouldn't be of much use.

I knew that she would say that, so I helplessly brought her along while I couldn't help but scold her, I already told you last time that you weren't allowed to say that. I'm already the general manager of Limin Corporation now, do I still need your money? You're my girlfriend, so it's only right that I give you money. You are not allowed to refuse."

Perhaps it's because I suffered a blow to my face from She Ying, my tone unconsciously became heavier, causing She Ying to have no room to refute. After pulling She Ying to the digital city, I originally wanted to buy her an Alienware M15 that was exactly the same as mine, but what I didn't expect was that She Ying had her eyes on a pink colored notebook. I looked over and saw that it was a secret edition of the Thunder Snake Spirit Blade, and this kind of pink colored girl's Wind was indeed attractive to quite a few girls.

Do you like it? I held He Ying's hand and laughed: If you like it, then buy.

Hearing my words, He Ying's eyes immediately lit up, and her entire person's emotions were obviously raised. I felt that she was very cute, and couldn't help but pinch her face.

However, because the prices were all marked on the counter, He Ying took a look at the prices, and her originally joyous expression immediately collapsed a little. She lowered her head, and even shook it: Are you sure you don't need it, Brother Li? Over ten thousand … It's really too much of a waste for you.

It's been a long time since I've heard He Ying say this to me. I felt it was funny in my heart, but I also felt it was warm. If it's possible, I actually hope that we can continue walking together. Thinking this way, I unconsciously want to bring He Ying back home early so that I can take a look. Once this thought came to my mind, I decided to bring He Ying home for this winter vacation.

After all, I had always felt that I would never be able to keep up with the changes in my plans. If I were to say it in advance, if something were to happen and disappoint He Ying, then it would not be good.

Laughing, he lightly patted He Ying's head: What are you afraid of? I already said that your Brother Li does not lack this kind of money. "

The waiter directly paid the bill, and without giving He Ying the chance to reject, the waiter took out a new computer. After wrapping it up, he handed it to me, and after I received the bag, I brought He Ying to take a look at the mouse, and bought a pink mouse for her.

After that, I brought He Ying around the place. They waited until they were at dinner before deciding on the restaurant to eat dinner with He Ying. During dinner, I finally couldn't help but hint: Are you going back to your dorm tonight?

After following me for so long, how could He Ying not understand what I mean. She blushed a little, but even though she was shy, she still nodded: I'll listen to you.

What I like the most is He Ying, she is considerate, sensible, and clever. She often understands my meaning the moment I say it,
