Fu Yong’s eyes widened instantly after hearing that. He stared in disbelief at the person standing in front of him as clarity gradually surfaced in his eyes.
Seeing his reaction, Zhao Youlin knew that he had understood. She said nothing more and left with Xiao Jingyao.
Those old guys on the board wanted to control her via others’ hands and decentralize her power. Well, unfortunately, they picked the wrong target.
The board of directors believed that the only person in the Zhao family who had the same right to inherit the company as Zhao Youlin was Zhao Yifei.
Zhao Youming was ambitious, and he was somewhat competent. If they chose him, he was obviously not as easy to control as Zhao Yifei.
And most importantly, Zhao Youming was an illegitimate son. He had gotten the master’s approval to join the company, however, given his position in the company... Anyone could see that Zhao Youming was not favored.
What the board needed was a puppet that could compete with Zhao Youlin, and in this regard, Zhao Yifei could not be a more suitable candidate.
Unfortunately, the board overlooked something. Zhao Yifei might be quite useless when it came to the management of the company, but his capability of causing trouble was just as great as his uselessness.
She believed that those old guys would find out soon how much trouble the puppet they personally picked would cause them.
Most importantly, Zhao Yifei’s joining might not be so much of a threat to her, but it was quite a big impact to another person.
It was Zhao Youlin’s first day back at the company. There was too much work piled up for her, and she spent her whole day handling them. She did not even notice the time until her phone rang. When she saw the caller’s name that was displayed on the screen, Zhao Youlin knitted her brows and was a little perplexed.
“Are you off work?” As soon as Zhao Youlin picked up the phone, a familiar voice came instantly from it.
“I still have some work left to do,” Zhao Youlin answered while quickly reviewing the documents in her hands.
The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment. Then, he whispered, “I will let you get back to it then.”
Zhao Youlin abruptly stopped signing documents. She suddenly recalled that she seemed to have promised Mu Tingfeng something before she slept last night. Could it be that...?
“Hold on. Are you already downstairs?” Zhao Youlin jumped up from her chair and quickly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of her office. She pulled open the curtain in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down.
The man standing downstairs looked up, as if he had sensed her. His gaze easily found Zhao Youlin, and he locked eyes with her.
Zhao Youlin was stunned for a long time before she could collect herself. She whispered to the phone, “Give me a minute. I will go down right now.”
After saying that, she did not wait for the man who was waiting downstairs to reply. She just hung up, packed her things, and ran downstairs.
Zhao Youlin’s slightly anxious voice reached Mu Tingfeng’s ear via his phone. It obviously pleased him. He closed the phone that had been hung up in his hand. Mu Tingfeng stood straight by his car and continued to wait for the woman to come down.
But any discerning person could sense that the aura around Mu Tingfeng had obviously turned a lot more tender than before the call.
“Look! Look! Is the man standing over there President Mu?”
“President Mu? How’s that possible? Doesn’t President Mu usually come to see the general manager at noon?”
“No, wait. I think that really is President Mu!”
“I think you are right! Oh, my God! That really is President Mu!”
“Speaking of which, I heard that President Mu and our general manager have remarried. The reason why the general manager didn’t come to work over the past few days was because she was on a honeymoon leave with President Mu.”
“Hey, look. Is President Mu talking on his phone?”
“Talking on his phone? Who is he talking to? The general manager?”
“So, is President Mu going to pick up the general manager from work and go home together?”
“Awwww... This feels so romantic. Oh, my God! I think my faith in love has been restored!”
When Zhao Youlin came down from upstairs, there was an expression of embarrassment on her face after hearing their words.
Mu Tingfeng, who was waiting silently, sensed Zhao Youlin’s presence almost the next second after she came down. He turned his head, and his eyes found her accurately. It was so fast that it even made Zhao Youlin’s jaw drop.
The moment Mu Tingfeng looked over, those girls who were chattering looked over as well. When they saw that Zhao Youlin was standing behind them for who knew how long and had been listening to their discussion for God knew how long, they went silent immediately. There was an awkward atmosphere in the air.
Zhao Youlin seemed to notice that as well, so she did not stay. She smiled at them and walked quickly past the reception desk in the direction of where Mu Tingfeng was.
“Have you been waiting for long?” Zhao Youlin looked up at Mu Tingfeng and asked in a low voice.
“I just got here.” Mu Tingfeng lied to her face. The expression on his face did not change a bit.
The truth was, Mu Tingfeng had already waited for over half an hour downstairs. He was worried that Zhao Youlin could not find him if she got off work early, so he left work an hour early.
As for his work, he had the poor Mighty Secretary Xia cover for him. President Mu knew that he could trust him.
At first, he was waiting in his car. When he saw that Zhao Youlin had not come down yet, he decided to give Zhao Youlin a call to check if she was still in the office.
Zhao Youlin did not overthink it. She nodded and entered the car as Mu Tingfeng opened the door for her.
The moment they left with the car, the girls who were silent for a few minutes started to chatter again.
“Look! Did you see that? President Mu was really here to pick up the general manager.”
“That’s right, that’s right. This is the first time I saw President Mu come to pick up the general manager! President Mu even opened the car door for her so thoughtfully. Oh, I can’t take it anymore. This is killing me! As expected, when a possessive president becomes gentle, he can be simply irresistible!”
“Stop being envious. The possessive president’s gentleness belongs exclusively to our general manager. You weren’t around when a stupid woman saw that President Mu was here to see the general manager. She shamelessly wanted to seduce President Mu. And she ended up being rejected by his cold demeanor before she could even get close to him. That’s why I say not everyone can afford to have a possessive president as a lover. If you don’t have the confidence to melt his ice in one try, it’s better not to take the risk.”
“That’s right. I was standing not far from that woman at that time. Even a passerby like me got goosebumps because of the cold aura he exuded, let alone her. I still have nightmares even now when I recall the incident.”
“Speaking of which, President Mu can be really frightening when he gets angry and pulls a straight face, especially when the general manager is not around. It is already terrifying when you watch from the side, so imagine when that cold demeanor is directed at you, isn’t that even...”
Several girls silently imagined the scene of Mu Tingfeng being mad at them, and they shivered simultaneously. Oh.... it was simply scary. It was better to find a gentle guy; a possessive president was not someone they could afford to handle!
