Kyoto, the Hayashi Group.

A woman in a shirt and jeans walked out of the building entrance; it was Jiang Yunxiao, who had just finished her interview.

Lin's interview was very rigorous. The interviewer asked professional questions, and even she stumbled over her answers.

She was already a little flustered, but then the interviewer suddenly asked her what her relationship was with the young master and young mistress.

Jiang Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment, then answered truthfully.

Later, well, the interviewer's attitude improved a lot, and she was told to go home and wait for news.

No wonder it's a leading enterprise in China; even someone as outstanding as her feels immense pressure.

Standing by the roadside, Jiang Yunxiao looked at the bustling traffic, her feelings somewhat complicated.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

She answered the phone with some surprise: "Hello, Fang Ye?"

"Is the interview over?"

"Yeah, I just came out."

"Look to your right."

Jiang Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, then she looked to her right. A car was parked not far away, and a hand was waving at her from the car window.

What's this guy doing here?

Jiang Yunxiao walked over with a puzzled expression.

Why are you here?

Fang Ye gestured for her to get in the car. After Jiang Yunxiao sat in the passenger seat, he smiled and said, "The Lin Group is a bit far from your home. I guessed you would have to take a taxi, so I came to pick you up."

Jiang Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat, and she smiled, "Thank you."

Fang Ye smiled and said, "How is it? Are you confident about this interview?"

Jiang Yunxiao said dejectedly, "I can't say for sure, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Don't be discouraged, just do your best." Fang Ye smiled. "Where to?"

Jiang Yunxiao didn't feel there was anything to worry about, since she had her junior and best friend with her. So she put on her lively and cute expression again: "Hehe, let's go eat then."

A smile appeared in Fang Ye's eyes: "Okay."

“If I can get a job at Lin’s, I’d like to rent a place here so it’s convenient for me to commute to and from get off work,” Jiang Yunxiao suddenly said.

Fang Ye nodded: "The idea is good, but housing prices in Kyoto are not cheap, and the area where Lin's is located is considered the city center. If you want to rent a place, the rent will probably be more expensive than your salary."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yunxiao's lips twitched; it seemed that was indeed the case.

"How about this? I have an apartment here. Why don't you stay there for now? It's only a few kilometers from the Lin family's place, so it'll be quite convenient," Fang Ye said after a moment's hesitation.

Jiang Yunxiao was taken aback, then she turned to look at him: "So, do you usually live there?"

Fang Ye nodded calmly: "Yes, I stay there in Kyoto. But don't worry, my apartment has three rooms, each with its own bathroom, so privacy is quite good."

Jiang Yunxiao was somewhat tempted. She trusted Fang Ye's character, but the thought of living with a boy was a little awkward.

But if she doesn't do that, she'll have to find a place herself. She's conflicted about how she works so hard just to pay rent. But will staying at someone else's place cause them trouble?

Seemingly sensing the girl's concerns, Fang Ye smiled and said, "You don't need to worry. The house isn't free for you to live in. How about this, the monthly water and electricity bills will be between several hundred and a thousand yuan. You can pay for that, okay?"

Jiang Yunxiao's eyes lit up: "That's good, then I'll... move there?"

Fang Ye nodded: "Okay."

The conversation ended, but the two were thinking different things.

Jiang Yunxiao didn't notice that Fang Ye breathed a sigh of relief; his hands, which were gripping the steering wheel, had turned slightly white.

That was caused by tension.

The two arrived at a restaurant that served Hunan cuisine; the pictures looked very appetizing.

Fang Ye, familiar with the process, ordered three dishes according to Jiang Yunxiao's taste.

"Hello, do you have orange juice? I'd like it iced, two glasses please," Fang Ye said politely to the waiter.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

Jiang Yunxiao smiled helplessly and said, "It's just a simple meal, why order so much?"

Fang Ye laughed and said, "I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat."

Jiang Yunxiao's lips twitched: "Did I eat a lot?"

Fang Ye looked at her with a strange expression.

After the two became familiar with each other, Jiang Yunxiao naturally revealed her true self in front of Fang Ye.

This girl definitely eats more than other girls.

Jiang Yunxiao felt somewhat embarrassed by the other person's gaze. Damn it, when did I expose myself?

Soon, the food was served.

"Eat up, you didn't have breakfast this morning, eat more." Fang Ye said with a smile.

Jiang Yunxiao pursed her lips, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat slowly and gracefully.

Actually, she wanted to salvage her image.

A minute later, Jiang Yunxiao couldn't keep up the act any longer and started wolfing down her food.

Forget about image, eating is the most important thing.

Fang Ye smiled at her straightforward manner and found her interesting.

"Are you... Mr. Fang Ye?"

At that moment, an uncertain voice suddenly rang out.

Fang Ye and Jiang Yunxiao were both taken aback, and then they both looked at the person who had spoken.

He saw a heavily made-up woman carrying an exquisite handbag looking at him excitedly.

Fang Ye asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

The woman exclaimed excitedly, "Don't you remember me? During the Huangshan earthquake last year, it was you who carried me out of the collapsing house."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yunxiao gave Fang Ye a strange look.

Oh ho, so they've come to repay a debt of gratitude?

Fang Ye didn't have much of an impression of this. He had saved too many people and had too many things to do, so he didn't have much of an impression of a disaster victim.

"My name is Ni Ke, Mr. Fang. I've been trying to find out about you lately. Knowing you were in Kyoto, I came here to develop my career. I never expected to run into you," the woman said with a smile, her gaze towards Fang Ye revealing undisguised affection.

Fang Ye smiled sheepishly: "Um, Miss Ni, right? Actually, I was just doing what I was supposed to do back then, and besides, it's been so long that I've forgotten about it."

Ni Ke stared at Fang Ye, feeling that he was indeed a good man, and that he had even saved her life. Although it might not mean much to him, she knew that without Fang Ye, she wouldn't be who she was today.

“Mr. Fang, you saved my life. Please give me a chance to repay you properly.”

Ni Ke paused for a moment, then said, "Could I treat you to dinner tonight?"

Fang Ye: ...

Jiang Yunxiao was not happy. As an outsider, she knew exactly what this woman was up to.

So she said, "I'm sorry, he's busy."

"Well…"

Ni Ke choked for a moment, then her gaze fell on Jiang Yunxiao, a look of amazement flashing in her eyes.

This girl is so beautiful!

Subconsciously, she compared herself to the image.

The other person was younger than her, prettier than her, and much older than her...

Okay, she got completely crushed...
