Helplessly shaking her head, Ning sighed, "There is no one called Josh, I just made that up to give Yitian an example."
"You are not going for lunch with anyone?" he inquired.
Crossing her arms in the front, she frowned, "Why would I go for lunch with anybody? But yes, I might consider it if you don't come home for lunch starting tomorrow."
Wrapping his arms around her, he rubbed his cheek against hers. "I was seriously very swamped today. When Guiren was working with me, I used to let him handle all the meetings and other important matters but now I can't do the same with my new assistant. I have to do everything on my own, it's quite stressful to be honest."
"Do you want my help?" Without waiting for his reply, she added, "I am working from home these days and Meili is handling all the office matters. Actually there isn't much to do in the office these days, Chen is handling the entire Walique project by himself so I really don't have anything else to do."
Thinking for a while, Yichan frowned, "Hmm you should stay at home and rest, I don't wanna pressure you with my office work as well."
"Come on Yi, I know you need my help. I can go through the important document for you, that isn't too much, right?"
Nodding his head in agreement, he stated, "Hmm you can do that but I won't let you overstress about it. Only two documents per day, okay?"
Giving him a peck on his lips, she smiled, "Okay, I love you."
Contemplating for a while, he asked, "You were giving Yitian a head massage earlier, right?"
Picking up his coat from the couch, she nodded her head, "Yes, he seemed very stressed over something that happened in his college so I was giving him some advice and also a head massage."
"I want one too." When she chuckled, he frowned, "What? If he can get one, why can't I?"
"Why don't you go and freshen up first? Yitian is waiting for us downstairs." Hooking her arms around his neck, she added, "After dinner, I will give you a very special massage."
"I love special massages." Rushing towards the washroom, he added, "I will go and freshen up quickly."

"Yes, Mo Yitian used to work for me. A very talented boy, I earned millions because of him." Helplessly shaking his head, Stephen sighed, "Too bad he found out about my bad intentions and left my clan. He was one of my greatest losses."
"You didn't try to vouch him back?" Karl Williams inquired.
Stephen nodded his head and answered, "I did but before I could do anything extreme, he left the country along with his family." Pausing for a while, he added, "You know I am helpless when it comes to that country."
Tapping his finger on the table, Karl stated, "What will you give me if I help you get your hands on the guy?"
"Who? Mo Yitian?" When he nodded his head, Stephen chuckled, "I wouldn't dare to touch him. You see my friend, I am living a happy and peaceful life now. My business is running quite smoothly without any kind of disturbance which is more than enough for me. I don't want to mess things up by challenging them. It wasn't easy for me to be on good terms with them."
Scrunching his brows, Karl curiously inquired, "What are you talking about?"
"Mo yichan personally facetimed me and asked me to stay away from Mo Yitian. It turns out that he is actually Mo Yichan's younger brother. Isn't that super cool? I always thought Yitian looked familiar but well, who would have thought—" Helplessly shaking his head, Stephen sighed, "Anyway, not touching that little guy, I am okay without him."
"But didn't he betray you as well? He destroyed the entire system before running away."
"Hmm he did but well, that system belonged to him and to be honest, I was the one cheating him. I told Yitian that it was for a good cause and the entire money is for a fundraiser. That guy is super fst and sharp so he found out earlier," he explained.
When Karl did not say anything, he added, "I can see that you have some serious issues with Mo Yichan."
"I don't have anything to do with him, it's his wife we are after," Karl answered.
Raising his brows, Stephen scoffed, "Double good luck with that."

Jiang corporation.
"I am sorry ma'am but boss doesn't want to see you." Hesitating for a while, the employee added, "He also instructed me to inform you that you should stay away from fuckboys like him."

Taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Ziying asked, "Can I talk to him over the phone?" When the employee hesitated, she explained, "Listen, it's really very important for me to talk to him. I swear I won't take a long time."
Thinking for a while, the employee stated, "I can't do that ma'am, I can lose my job because of this. Let me call boss and ask him if he wants to talk to you over the phone."
Passing the phone to her, the employee added, "Ms Wang, boss is on the line."
Taking the phone from her hand, Ziying snapped, "Will you let me in or not?"
"Did you come all the way to my office to snap at me like that?" Chen inquired.
"No, I just want to talk to you about something important." When he did not say anything, she sighed, "Please Chen, let me in."
Keeping quiet for quite some time, he instructed, "Give the phone to Tina."
After passing the phone to the employee, Ziying breathed a sigh of relief. All she wanted to do was apologize to him for her rude behavior and then run away. She felt really very guilty for shouting at him when he came to her apartment to apologise to her.
"Miss Wang, please follow me."
...
Inside Chen's office.
When Ziying entered the office, Chen gestured the employee to leave before making his way towards her. "What do you want now? Do you want to say something else?"
"I-I am here to apologize for my behavior, I shouldn't have shouted at you like that. It was very rude and insensitive of me, I am very sorry."
Taking a step closer, he asked, "You are?"
"Y-Yes I am." Ziying gulped in nervousness when he took one more step towards her. Yang Chen was a young charming man and very well known among the ladies who drooled over his handsome face. His sharp jawline, perfect nose and perfect physique was remarkable and something no woman could resist.
To her attention off his handsome face, she awkwardly cleared her throat and extended her hand towards him. "Friends? We can be friends—"
"I don't want any kind of friendship from you." Without waiting for her reply, he started corning her until her back touched the cold wall.
Trapping her in between his arms, he added, "I want to know you Wang Ziying, I want to know everything about you and not as your friend."
"What—"
Cutting her off, he added, "Go out with me this weekend, I will take you somewhere for two days. We will leave on Friday evening after work and come back on Sunday night."
Scrunching her brows, she snapped, "I am not going on a trip with you."
Tapping the tip of her nose, he smiled, "You are here to apologize to me, right? So go on this trip with me and I'll forgive you. If not, I will think your apology is not sincere." Without waiting for her reply, he made his way towards his desk.
"I am not going anywhere, you can think whatever you want to," she snapped.
"I will wait for you outside your apartment at sharp 8:00 pm," he stated.
Gritting her teeth in annoyance, Ziying stormed out of the room.
....
Mo base.
"Why?"
Contemplating for a while, Jason explained, "Because I think if we work together then things will be much easier and Linhou was also telling me that he is having a tough time handling the field team all by himself. When Linhou did not say anything, he pinched his waist.
Wincing his pian, Linhou vigorously nodded his head in agreement, "Yes, I agree with Jason. There are many things to do and too many people. So I need one more person to help me lead the team."
Looking at the two of them simultaneously, Yichan suspiciously remarked, "You both have been taking care of everything all by yourself all these years, what happened all of a sudden?"
"There wasn't this much workload earlier," Jason stated.
Linhou nodded his head in agreement. "Yes, Jason is right. It's hectic these days and we feel very stressed."
Thinking for a while, Yichan looked at Bojing and Guiren who were busy reading a pregnancy book. "What do you guys think?"
"Do what you feel is right Yi," Guiren answered without taking his eyes off the book.
Scrunching his brows, Yichan complained, "I understand why brother Bojing is reading that book but why you? Meili is not even pregnant."
