"Are you going out again?" Le Yao couldn't help but ask.

“Nangong Lin arrived a long time ago. I asked Fang Ming to hand him over, but he insisted on waiting to see me.” Nangong Jue’s lips curled slightly. “Now that I’m back, I should at least go and entertain this cousin, right?”

Le Yao nodded: "Then you should treat them well." Le Yao waved her hand as she spoke.

At this moment, Tao Qing and Yuan Bin heard the car and came out to greet them, taking the luggage from them.

Nangong Jue watched as Le Yao entered the house before leaving.

Knowing that Le Yao was coming back today, Han Baozhu and his wife had prepared a lot of ingredients long ago, all of which were Le Yao's favorites. As soon as they saw their daughter return, they immediately got to work.

"Mom and Dad started preparing yesterday." Han Xiangdong smiled and looked Le Yao up and down. "They've prepared all your favorite dishes, and they haven't even thought about their son."

"Of course! Who told me I'm more likable than you?" Le Yao made a face at Han Xiangdong triumphantly.

Shuo Shuo, who was next to him, saw this and tried to imitate it, making a funny face. However, he was too young and couldn't imitate it well at all, which only made him look cuter.

Le Yao then picked him up and kissed him a few times, much to her delight.

"Alright, go upstairs and freshen up and rest. It'll be time to eat soon." Han Xiangdong took Shuo Shuo over. "Let's go find Jin Dou to play."

In the Nangong Group office, everything that belonged to Nangong Jue had been moved out the moment he resigned, leaving only some documents.

Nangong Lin sat in his large executive chair, looking quite pleased with himself. He had finally managed to get rid of that illegitimate child.

When Nangong Jue entered, he immediately saw Nangong Lin's smug smile and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Nangong Lin, you're really dedicated. You're still waiting in the office so late."

"Nangong Jue." Upon hearing Nangong Jue's voice, Nangong Lin instinctively stood up. "You've finally arrived."

“Actually, I should have come tomorrow, since today is still a holiday.” Nangong Jue smiled and sat down on the sofa. “Tell me, why do you insist on seeing me?”

"It's naturally a matter of handing over work duties." Nangong Lin had calmed down by now. He was the general manager now, so he didn't need to be afraid of this illegitimate son.

“I had Fang Ming hand over the work to you, didn’t you? Hasn’t the handover been completed?” Nangong Jue frowned.

"What qualifications does an assistant have to hand over the reins to me?"

“Hehe.” Nangong Jue laughed. “If that’s the case… then I have even less to hand over to you. After all… Fang Ming handles the company’s business. He knows more about many things than I do. In recent years, I’ve only appeared at some important meetings and events.”

"How could you... how could you do this? It's so irresponsible."

“Why can’t I do this? Don’t forget, this branch is number one in the group.” Nangong Jue stood up. “Besides, I’m just making good use of people. Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’m going back.”

"Nangong Jue, what do you mean by this?"

"What do you mean?"

"The company is currently working on two major projects, and this matter..."

“Fang Ming didn’t tell you about this? That shouldn’t be the case. He’s the one who’s been handling those two projects; he’s the most familiar with them.” Nangong Jue frowned. “I have to ask him.” Then he got up and opened the door. “Fang Ming, come in.”
