Fu Renshu sneered. "You already want the company to cover your medical expenses? You are not officially enrolled into the company so you are on your own."
Lihua sobbed. "D-Don't say that! Assistant Boss! Why is putting a simple bandage on my wound so-so expensive? The nurse just cleaned it and taped it. Why this daylight robbery!?"
He looked at her in disdain. "Robbery? Do you even know this hospital?"
Lihua looked at the sign. "It says XX Hospital."
"Idiot. I am not asking for the name. Reputation! Everything here is top notched. Quality matters in the end, not a few bucks here and there."
She looked aghast. "Few bucks? This amount will steal my three months of expenses! This is not a few…"
"Three months? Just how cheap do you live?"
"..."
Have some mercy, please.
Suddenly, she saw the familiar silhouette. "My Godly handsome-"
Fu Renshu shut her up with a deadly glare.
"Boss... Boss!" She cried and frantically waved her hand.
My messiah! He will save me!
Fu Renshu quickly said, "Boss, why did you come here yourself?"
"Long time," Wei commented.
He scowled at Lihua. "Boss. It's all because of her. This new intern is wasting time in paying such a simple bill."
Lihua chimed in. "It's a complicated bill for me."
"Shut up."
Lihua cried. "Boss. C-can you not give me a little discount? Only sixty percent! I would gratefully accept eighty percent too!"
Fu Renshu wanted to clap at her shamelessness.
Wei tilted his head and stared at her. "You are poor?"
"..."
Lihua had no idea how to retort to that. She was speechless.
So I get the tag of being poor just because I cannot pay this ridiculous bill?

"Boss, I am not poor. It's the service here that is too expensive! Who will pay five thousand Yuan for getting a freaking bandaid!?"
Wei blinked his eyes. "Me. Is five thousand Yuan too expensive?"
"..."
For a small band-aid, hell yes! Clearly, we don't live in the same world.
Lihua was afraid to ask the next question. "Boss... exactly what amount is expensive for you? Um like when will you feel that something is too pricey?"
Fu Renshu gnashed his jaw. "Song Lihua... such disrespect! You are asking that question to the CEO of Jiang Industries!"
"I-I am just curious," she mumbled. "Don't have to be so mad about it…"
Wei seemed to be in deep thought. But he couldn't respond even after a long time.
Lihua's mouth twitched.
Is it that difficult to answer?
"Then how about the lowest amount you have spent?"
Wei seemed relieved. He had an answer to that.
"The lowest was five hundred billion dollars for an island."
"..."
At that moment, Lihua had enlightenment. She discovered the true essence of the saying-
Ignorance is truly bliss.
Five-five-five h-h-h-hundred b-b-b-billion? And not Yuan, freaking dollars!
If my Godly handsome prince thinks five hundred billion dollars as his lowest amount, then I must refrain from asking his upper limit.
Maybe he doesn't have any upper limit which is why he couldn't answer earlier.
And here I am fighting for five thousand Yuan. Of course, he would think of me as a poor pleb. No, I am an insect in front of him.
Lihua sobbed. "Boss, I will come on the streets if I pay five thousand Yuan! A little discount please…"
Wei nodded.
Lihua brightened.
"Boss! Thank you! I knew it. You are kind-hearted." She wiped her non-existent tears.

He looked at Renshu. "Pay the entire bill. She is really poor."
"..."
Now the non-existent tears became existent.
T-that last sentence was unnecessary...
Lihua quickly said, "N-No boss, don't pay the entire bill. I will pay too."
Fu Renshu sneered. "With the way you shamelessly asked for an eighty percent discount, you are not that far to ask for a hundred percent either. Might as well we pay for all of it."
Is today World Humiliation Day?
This was the first time Lihua was getting so many back-to-back jabs.
After the ordeal was finally over, Lihua said, "Thank you so much for everything, Boss. I need to head back now."
Wei didn't respond.
"Boss?"
He lowered his gaze. "Hm…"
"Cool. Guess I will see you next in the office now! I can't wait to join hehe~"
As she hopped and left, Wei kept staring at her back.
Fu Renshu observed this and was genuinely shocked. Usually, he never spared a single glance at other women but he bothered to stay in Lihua's presence for so long and even talk to her without killing her.
Basically, this was the first decent conversation Wei had had with a woman.
"Renshu."
"Yes, boss."
"Do something for me."
---
Lihua whistled a happy tune as she reached her apartment complex. Once again, she met Mrs. Zhang.
"Ah, Lihua. You are back. How was your day today?"
"Aunt Zhang!" Lihua held her hand and twirled with her.
"Ah, ah, stop! You are making me dizzy."
"Hahaha! Well, it's because I am really happy! My presentation went awesome and I got the job too! And not just anywhere. Jiang Industries! Do you know the CEO is so Godly handsome? He is so kind too. Ah, I am in love, Aunt Zhang…"
Mrs. Zhang chuckled. "Is my ditzy Lihua talking about love?"
"What can I say? Love feels so magical…"
She flicked her head. "Idiot. And you just left with an orange juice young lady! Now, you got to have a proper dinner at my house. No ifs and buts."
She sheepishly grinned. "Aye, aye Aunt!"
Suddenly, they heard a few men coming upstairs and keeping some boxes on the floor in front of a house.
"What is going on, Aunt?"
"It's been going on for thirty minutes. I think somebody is moving in next to your apartment."
Lihua dreamily said, "How I wish it should be my Godly handsome prince…Ah being his neighbor sounds so romantic..."
Then she heard the sound of calm and poise footsteps as that man climbed up the stairs. Their gazes met as he stood in front of her.
Lihua stared at him unblinkingly and her brain refused to function. Her eyes widened and her mouth opened in a big O etched with disbelief.
She raised her trembling finger towards him.
"Y-You... What are you doing here G-G-G-Godly hand- I mean Boss?"
