"Brother, what are you saying?"

"You can wrong me, but don't wrong my sister-in-law. Those words I said before were just jokes. Now that I know her identity, I have no reason to have any improper thoughts. You can rest assured!"

Murong Xiao gave a soft snort.

Gu Feiyang pushed Xiang Jin forward: "Sister-in-law needs to deliver some documents to the design department, so I'm leaving her to you. I also have a drinking appointment with Young Master Sun, so I won't say any more. Bye~"

Gu Feiyang slipped away faster than a rabbit.

Xiang Jin stood there blankly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Or... you could send someone to guide me, and I can go by myself." Judging from his posture, he must be going to take care of something.

"You guys go ahead," Murong Xiao said, dismissing the people behind him.

"The design department, right?" He looked at Xiang Jin.

Xiang Jin nodded.

"Come with me."

Xiang Jin: "???"

Is he going to take her up there himself?

"Aren't you going to catch up?" Murong Xiao had already walked ahead, and seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Xiang Jin quickly followed.

The biggest advantage of being with the big boss is having fast passes everywhere; just swipe your card and VIPs go straight to the 16th floor. However, the ascent was slightly awkward because neither of them spoke.

Xiang Jin didn't know what to say, her mind racing, and she looked down at her toes.

"You came to Fengrong and contacted Gu Feiyang?" A deep voice suddenly came from above, sounding displeased.

Xiang Jin was taken aback, and quickly explained, "No, I met him downstairs. He knows about our relationship, so..." He insisted on helping her.

"Are you that afraid of him finding out about our relationship?" The atmosphere in the elevator suddenly turned a few degrees colder.

"Huh? Why should I be afraid? Isn't that bad for you?"

There's no need for someone who's going to get divorced sooner or later to meet their family. Besides, her status would only embarrass him, and she doesn't want him to lose face.

"Not good to me?"

Murong Xiao paused: "Aren't you afraid he'll be jealous?"

"Jealous? Why would he be jealous? I've only known Young Master Gu for a short time, and I don't even have his contact information. What is he jealous of?"

Murong Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

So, she doesn't like Gu Feiyang?

Or perhaps the person she likes isn't Gu Feiyang, but someone else entirely?

At this moment, the elevator arrived at the sixteenth floor. Murong Xiao stood at the door without moving, so Xiang Jin had to look at the signs herself and find the design department. She pointed inside and said, "I'm going to deliver the documents now. Bye."

"Um."

Xiang Jin contacted Ling Teng, the contact person, explained her purpose, and handed him the documents.

"Hello, these are the documents Kelly asked me to deliver. Please sign them here." Xiang Jin politely handed over a pen.

Ling Teng glanced at the file, then slammed it down: "What's going on? Not a single thing you mentioned last time has been changed. Is this how you do things?!"

Xiang Jin was somewhat bewildered.

Hearing the commotion, the others also turned to look in this direction.

“I’m sorry, I just started today and I’m not very familiar with the project. Kelly didn’t tell me any of this.”

"So it's my fault? I made it perfectly clear in the last meeting, how could I make such a basic mistake? What kind of people have I recruited?!"

"sorry……"

Xiang Jin clenched his fist.

"Take it back and redo it. Next time, we'll have someone else do it!"

Xiang Jin picked up the document with her head down and left the design department, only to find that Murong Xiao was still standing there, attracting frequent attention from passersby.

"You got criticized?" He bluntly exposed her.

Xiang Jin bit her lip and nodded, somewhat embarrassed.

She finally understood that all the document delivery and signing was a setup orchestrated by Kelly, just waiting for her to come and get scolded!

It seems my days in Yixin aren't going to be too easy...

Xiang Jin was lost in thought when the elevator quickly arrived at the ground floor. Without even looking, she followed Murong Xiao out and looked up to find that it was the basement level.

"Wrong, wrong," she thought, preparing to turn back, when Murong Xiao called out to her.

"where did you go?"

"Go to the first floor and take the bus back to the company."

"I've already finished get off work, why would I go back to the company?"

get off work?

Xiang Jin took out her phone and saw that it was already 6:30, half an hour after she had left work.

"Keep up."

"oh."

Xiang Jin quickly followed him and got into the Maybach.

The car rumbled forward before Fang Xinman finally emerged from the corner.

She stared blankly at the intersection where the Maybach had disappeared, her expression a mixture of resentment and bitterness.

She came looking for Murong Xiao, but witnessed this scene.

Xiangjin.

To my utter surprise, she was so capable, managing to seduce Gu Feiyang while also flirting with Master Xiao, and even managing to get into Master Xiao's car...

She, a lowly person from the bottom of society, should rot in the slums and live her whole life in a place where she can't see the light of day!

Fang Xinman is the best candidate to be Mrs. Murong; everyone else will be trampled under her feet!

Just you wait, Xiang Jin. You'll see how you die.

Xiang Jin followed Murong Xiao back to the Lakeside Villa.

The people in the villa were stunned when they first saw the two of them return together.

Afterwards, Aunt Yang happily went to the kitchen to get busy, while Butler Feng had someone pick a few bouquets of flowers and place them in the living room, where Zhou Zhou was grooming the canna lilies.

Upon seeing Xiang Jin, the dog immediately rushed over, looking pitiful and whimpering.

"What are you yelling for? Go out and play by yourself," Murong Xiao said fiercely.

The dog became unhappy and whimpered even more fiercely.

"Don't be harsh with it, it's still young." Xiang Jin quickly stroked the dog's head. "What's wrong with the canna lily? Why is it unhappy?"

"It's nothing. I told him this morning I'd find him a female dog, but I didn't see her this afternoon. He's been refusing to acknowledge her and has been making a fuss about it all day." Zhou Zhou was quite troubled.

Xiang Jin chuckled.

"Sweetie, let's look on the bright side. What's a little bitch compared to dog food? I'll take you out to eat, okay? We can find another little bitch tomorrow." Xiang Jin's voice was gentle, radiating maternal warmth, as if she were coaxing a baby who hadn't been weaned.

"Why bother with it? Let's eat!" Murong Xiao walked away with a sullen face.

Some people have never spoken to him so gently before. Even a dog is treated better than him, which is really unpleasant.

Xiang Jin was somewhat bewildered.

Unable to figure out how she had offended him again, she had no choice but to hand the dog over to Zhou Zhou and go to the dining room with him.

Xiang Jin arrived at the company.

As soon as she put down what she was holding, Kelly came up to her.

"What's going on? Why were the documents I asked you to deliver yesterday returned untouched? If you can't even handle this simple matter, you might as well leave now." Kelly said sternly, her tone quite unpleasant.

"So the team leader's goal was to get rid of me," Xiang Jin laughed.

"What do you mean? Do you think I'm deliberately targeting you?"

"You didn't do a good job, and you can't even let people criticize you?" Kelly sneered. "Sure enough, this is the kind of quality people who didn't graduate from college have."
