Afternoon.
Yang Hao had told Sun Xinyi to rest at home.
He himself went to Jiangcheng Newspaper Group.
“Mr. Yang!”
The CEO’s office had only Wang Bingru at the moment, and she was just slacking off when, to her surprise, the CEO, who hadn’t been seen all day, finally arrived. She hurriedly stood up from her desk.
This girl’s getup was really something, with a style that screamed experience doesn’t match but face and figure do!
But such an outfit really didn’t look like that of a proper assistant!
Fine then, as if this CEO’s office is that proper anyway!!
“Has Director Cai arrived?”
Yang Hao waved his hand lightly, indicating that she could just sit down and talk.
“She’s arrived and is working in her office.”
Wang Bingru pointed to the CEO’s office director’s office.
Yang Hao nodded slightly and strode over, then lightly knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
The voice of Cai Meichen came from inside the office.
Yang Hao pushed the door and entered, the director of the CEO’s office was dressed quite formally, in a suit and skirt pair with black stockings, long hair slightly curled, indeed possessing the charm of a mature woman.
“Mr. Yang!”
Seeing Yang Hao, Cai Meichen quickly stood up from her workstation.
She thought she wouldn’t see the boss on her first day of work.
“That’s not the right way to address me!”
“What should the wife of the CEO call the CEO?”
Yang Hao teased with a chuckle.
“Mr. Yang, I really didn’t expect that night…”
Cai Meichen had thought that the issue was already behind them, but the CEO-turned-repairman just had to bring it up.
“I’m just kidding.”
Yang Hao waved it off, then casually sat down on the sofa, “Are you adapting well to the work?”
“It’s okay, but there are many documents that require Mr. Yang’s signature for decision-making.”
The CEO’s office had been in a standstill for three or four days, so there was quite a backlog of work; Cai Meichen had been busy since she started working there.
Some tasks could have been delegated to Wang Bingru, but she didn’t know what the situation with that girl was yet. Plus, judging from her years of experience, dressing like that for work usually meant she was there for the CEO’s convenience.
In other words, she might be the CEO’s little girlfriend; Cai Meichen wouldn’t dare to direct her recklessly, so she had to silently bear the burden herself.
“How about this, for files that need my decision, you first mark your own suggestion, then pass them to me!”
When it came to being a CEO, Yang Hao indeed lacked experience, but Cai Meichen had plenty, so he wanted to absorb some know-how from her and see if the “CEO’s wife” was as capable as her resume suggested.
A highly capable CEO’s office director would make his work as CEO much easier.
“By the way, Bingru has no previous work experience, so guide her a bit.”
“Moreover, isn’t the CEO’s office missing an assistant? Communicate with HR about the recruitment; we need someone highly capable!”
Counting Yang Hao, the CEO’s office currently had five people, including him as the CEO, and Sun Xinyi and Wang Bingru, who were all slackers!
This can’t do!
The slackers already made up three-fifths of the office, so they definitely needed to hire a capable assistant to balance things out.
“Understood, Mr. Yang, I will communicate with HR as soon as possible.”
“Also, should I treat Bingru like a normal employee?”
Cai Meichen asked tentatively.
“She is a regular employee!”
“She just lacks work experience, so if you train her well, she could take some pressure off you, couldn’t she?”
Yang Hao quickly clarified his stance, understanding Cai Meichen’s implication.
Internally, he was muttering to himself.
What kind of person do you take me for!
To emphasize once again!
This is the CEO’s office!
Not this guy’s harem!!
Apart from those with connections, none have anything to do with this CEO!!
After chatting with Cai Meichen for a bit, Yang Hao went back to his office.
Ding!
The additional effect of the Kidney-Strengthening Potion is activated.
Kidney Energy Value +1!
Yang Hao had just settled in the boss chair when the System’s voice once again rang in his mind.
He checked the time; it was the 24-hour effectiveness of the Kidney-Strengthening Potion expiring.
The 24-hour peak has passed, and he gained a point of permanent Kidney Energy Value!
Nice!
Yang Hao was very satisfied with the effects of the little blue bottle, thinking back over the past 24 hours.
He took on three at once and came out triumphantly, leaving his foes in disarray!
Yibao had even triggered her passive skill, “Overflowing Gold Mountain,” several times, and she was still lying at home now!
One word: epic!
And currently in the System Warehouse, there’s still one of those little blue bottles he had “borrowed” from Sun Xinyi.
However, Yang Hao decided not to use it for now; it’d be better to hold off…
He checked his unread messages on WeChat and there were quite a few.
The first was a work progress report from Xu Yali, his senior secretary, who had arrived at Jingmen and purchased a BMW X5 from the BMW 4S store!
Although the car was registered in Sun Xinyi’s name, it was meant for her parents to drive. They were from a working-class background, and it wouldn’t be good to be too ostentatious.
The BMW X5 gives off a fallen aristocrat vibe as it was once very prestigious!
Now, although BMW has lost some of its luster from the past, it still represents a peak for the average person.
According to Xu Yali’s report, the house purchase wouldn’t happen today; it’d be sorted either tomorrow or the day after.
Then, there were messages from Meng Chacha on WeChat, mainly to inform Yang Hao that she had completed the property transfer procedures for the storefront. The little bitch even posted on her Moments to show off.
“`
Huh??
What the hell is this??
He casually glanced at Meng Yuyu’s social circle and was surprised to find that Li Manshu had liked her posts!
He hadn’t deleted his ex-wife from his Weixun, although she had given up custody rights to Xixi during the divorce, she still had visitation rights, which according to the agreement were not to be less than once a month.
But after the divorce, she had never taken the initiative to visit.
Yet now, Yang Hao saw his ex-wife’s trace in Meng Chacha’s social circle.
He clicked on that familiar profile picture to take a closer look, and it was really her!!
What on earth was going on??
How did his ex-wife get mixed up with his little lover??
Yang Hao immediately sent a Weixun message to Meng Yuyu: Do you know Li Manshu?
Inside the Japanese restaurant.
Meng Yuyu was treating the bitch Li Manshu and her plastic best friend Yu Lili to a meal.
For Meng Chacha, these two were mere props and stagehands in her show-off performance – tools that provided her with the emotional value to satisfy her vanity.
Meng Chacha had no desire to hide her glory— if she had it good, she wanted everyone to know!
Suddenly receiving a Weixun message from Yang Hao, she felt quite happy, thinking that her “husband” had finally thought of her.
But after seeing his message, she froze for a moment before instinctively glancing at Li Manshu, who was busy taking photos of the food with her phone.
This Japanese restaurant was quite upscale, and the dishes were exquisite enough to be shown off on social media.
Meng Yuyu didn’t know how her husband knew Li Manshu, but being aware of the latter’s old bitch nature, she instantly became alert.
Were they bypassing her and secretly making contact??
Meng Yuyu frowned, over the past few days, this old green tea bitch had occasionally probed for information about her husband.
But a well-prepared Meng Chacha hadn’t disclosed a single word, so she couldn’t figure out how the other party had managed to make contact with her husband!
It seems I underestimated the old bitch!!
Meng Yuyu clenched her teeth and then told Yang Hao truthfully how she came to know Li Manshu.
After learning how the two knew each other, Yang Hao felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.
His ex-wife had even been involved in the design of his Star Cloud Bay mansion!
It was utterly fantastical!!
He hesitated for a moment but then decided to tell Meng Yuyu the truth: She’s my ex-wife.
Yang Hao still trusted Meng Chacha to manage the situation well.
Now sitting across from Li Manshu, Meng Yuyu felt a surge of crisis. She had always viewed Li Manshu as just a low-level bitch.
She had never expected the other party to pull off an “underhanded move”!
She almost managed to steal my house!
In other words, I severely underestimated her capabilities. What she showed was only what she wanted me to see!!
So crafty!!
Meng Yuyu ranted in her mind, taking a sip of the juice before her to calm herself down.
And at that moment, Yang Hao happened to reply to her Weixun.
Meng Yuyu couldn’t wait to check the message…
The next moment, the juice in Meng Yuyu’s mouth sprayed out!
It splattered all over the table.
“Yuyu, what’s wrong?”
“What’s the matter???”
Both Li Manshu and Yu Lili were taken aback, sending inquisitive glances toward Meng Yuyu.
“Yuyu, wipe your mouth.”
Li Manshu even thoughtfully passed her two tissues.
“Thank you…”
Meng Yuyu first wiped her mouth, then patted her chest to help her breathe more smoothly.
She looked up at Li Manshu across from her, her gaze filled with a hint of playfulness and ridicule.
During a break in their card game, she had asked Yang Hao why he divorced his ex-wife, and Yang Hao had not concealed the truth.
At that time, Meng Yuyu wondered what that woman’s feelings would be like if she knew her ex had prospered since leaving her!
At the same time, she also despised the ex-wife’s actions.
Although Meng Yuyu also had some green tea attributes, she felt that if she were Yang Hao’s ex-wife, she wouldn’t have been so ruthless. After all, they had a daughter and had lived together for many years. If the relationship were good, she wouldn’t have divorced.
Meng Yuyu might be greedy, but she wasn’t evil.
But that ex-wife was just heartless and conscienceless!
Meng Yuyu had often criticized the ex-wife in her mind, only to find that the woman was now sitting right across from her.
Additionally, during her conversations with Li Manshu, she declared herself as unmarried!
Not to mention a child, she wouldn’t even admit to being divorced!
It was clear she was crafting a single persona to fish for a wealthy husband…
Truly shameless!
Meng Yuyu cursed silently in her mind.
Meanwhile, Li Manshu spoke up: “Yuyu, is there something on my face?”
“Why do you keep staring at me?”
Li Manshu, puzzled by Meng Yuyu’s gaze, touched her own face.
“I just think you’re really beautiful, Manshu Sister!”
“So gorgeous, it’s strange that you’ve been single all this time!”
“Manshu Sister’s previous boyfriend must have been quite impressive, right??” A crisis-free Meng Chacha asked with a smile.
“Uh…”
Li Manshu hesitated for a moment. Her previous relationship wasn’t with a boyfriend, but a husband.
However, she didn’t want to lose face in front of Meng Yuyu, so she quickly replied: “My ex-boyfriend owned a chain of hotpot restaurants; he was quite wealthy, I guess!”
“Then why did you break up?” Meng Yuyu inquired with interest.
“Because…”
Li Manshu paused hesitantly, then angrily said: “He cheated!!”
Many women are like this, after a breakup or divorce, they always push the responsibility onto the man, even resorting to distortions of truth.
Perhaps, in their eyes, this better highlights their innocence and excellence.
