"Understood!" Lin Man turned and left.

Ye Tianyu was waiting outside.

"Come with me!"

Lin Man beckoned him and led him to an office.

"This office is yours, facing Mr. Fang's office, so it'll be convenient for her to find you!"

Ye Tianyu sized him up.

The office isn't big, but it's clean and the environment is nice.

Ye Tianyu felt like he was dreaming. Just two days ago he was selling roasted sweet potatoes at a street stall, and today he's a white-collar worker at the Fang Group.

He felt that the turning point in his life was about to begin here.

Lin Man then extended her right hand to him and smiled.

"Now we're partners!"

"I'll assist Director Fang with her work; you're responsible for her safety!"

"Um!"

Ye Tianyu shook hands with her.

Then Lin Man handed him a set of keys.

"This is your apartment key. It's located at No. 18, Minghua Garden Community, not far from the company!"

With a place to stay secured, Ye Tianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

I took the keys, said thank you, and turned to leave the office area.

When leaving the main gate, I passed the security room.

"Ye Tianyu, you've been chosen by President Fang?"

Jin Hu's eyes nearly popped out when he saw Ye Tianyu's beaming face.

"Top-notch treatment! A monthly salary of 30,000 plus bonuses and subsidies, and I get to eat and drink well with my beautiful boss every day. It's really great."

"However, for a grown man to follow a woman around all day like a shadow is no different from being a gigolo. It's utterly devoid of dignity!"

Jin Hu was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. He felt that the grapes he couldn't reach were sour, and he could only vent his inner imbalance through mockery.

Ye Tianyu chuckled teasingly: "Stop being so sour. Don't you also want to be President Fang's lackey?"

"If it were the other way around, and Ms. Fang had chosen you, you'd probably be licking her high heels on the floor right now. Talking to me about dignity? Do you even deserve it?"

"Hahaha……"

Several security guards nearby burst into laughter.

Ye Tianyu's retort was absolutely brilliant.

"you……"

Jin Hu was so angry that his face turned a deep liver color.

Ye Tianyu ignored him and strode out of the company gate.

With a job and a place to live, Ye Tianyu started a new chapter. Instead of going to Minghua Garden to check on his dormitory, he went directly to Qin Hao's rented apartment to pick up his luggage.

When Qin Hao and Ding Xue heard that Ye Tianyu had found a job as Fang Xueqing's personal bodyguard, they were almost speechless with shock.

The two looked at each other incredulously and asked Ye Tianyu what connections he had used to get into the Fang Group.

Ye Tianyu only explained that he got in based on his own strength, and that he didn't have time to explain in detail now, but they would understand in time.

Then, to the astonishment of the two, they left with their luggage.

Upon arriving at Minghua Garden residential complex, his dormitory was located on the second floor of building number 18.

When Ye Tianyu opened the door, he was stunned.

It's a two-bedroom apartment with a spacious living room, fully furnished with all the necessary appliances, and tastefully decorated—it's practically a small luxury home.

Fang Xueqing is being far too generous!

They actually let themselves live in such a nice house!

I don't care anymore, if she dares to give it to me, I dare to stay there.

After putting my luggage away, I had some free time.

On his first day at work, with his official start date tomorrow, Ye Tianyu decided to go back to his hometown to share the good news with his adoptive mother. If she was willing, he would bring her to live with him and take good care of her.

So he got up and went out.

Upon arriving at Jinniu Village and entering the house, Zhong Shuqin, who had just finished lunch, was overjoyed to see Ye Tianyu and busied herself pouring him water.

When Ye Tianyu told Fang Xueqing that he had found a job, Zhong Sheqin was overjoyed.

"Tianyu! This is a great job. You should seize the opportunity; you have a chance to make it big!"

"Yes, Mom, I will definitely try my best!"

Ye Tianyu nodded with a resolute expression, assuring Zhong Sheqin.

Just then, several villagers walked past the door, and their voices reached Ye Tianyu's ears.

"Wow! Jin Manfei is really ruthless, she almost beat someone to death!"

Ye Tianyu's expression changed as he looked at Zhong Shuqin: "Mom, what's that woman doing in the village?"

Upon hearing this, a trace of sorrow crossed Zhong Shuqin's face, and she sighed.

"Your biological mother came to the village today with her stepson Chu Zihao and several thugs. She claimed to the sand and gravel pit and cement plant that she had monopolized the building materials market in Jiangnan, and that everyone's sand, gravel and cement had to be sold to her at one-third the market price."

“She’s bullying and monopolizing the market. The owners of the village’s sand and gravel pits and cement plants won’t agree to do business with her at a loss.”

"She ordered her thugs to beat them up, and it almost resulted in a death!"

How could your own mother become so vicious?!

"Mom, why are you here again?"

Ye Tianyu's eyes blazed with fury: "I've said it before, she's not my mother. One day, I'll make this woman pay!"

"Hey! Keep your voice down, it'll be troublesome if someone hears you!"

Zhong Shuqin panicked and quickly covered his mouth.

"Mom, don't be nervous, it's okay!"

Ye Tianyu lowered her hand and asked, "Is she still in the village?"

"They're still here, but they should be leaving soon!"

Zhong Shuqin glanced outside the door and said cautiously, "Several people from the cement plant and the sand and gravel pit have been beaten and sent to the hospital. Jin Manfei has achieved her goal and won't stay long!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a shout came from outside: "Get out of the way, don't block the way!"

Ye Tianyu and Zhong Shuqin immediately went outside.

A few dozen meters ahead, several men in black were menacingly driving away passersby. Behind them were three people: one man and two women. The man was a young man who stood tall and proud, looking arrogant and domineering.

Two women, an elderly woman with a cane and a middle-aged woman around fifty years old.

The two women were adorned with jewels and exuded an air of nobility.

Ye Tianyu's face darkened.

The middle-aged woman was his biological mother, Jin Manfei, and the young man was Jin Manfei's stepson, Chu Zihao.

The old woman with the cane was Jin Manfei's mother and Ye Tianyu's maternal grandmother, Zhang Meifen.

Zhong Shuqin looked flustered and quickly pulled Ye Tianyu, saying, "They're coming! Let's go inside!"

"Mom, it's alright. I doubt they'd dare do anything!"

Ye Tianyu held Zhong Shuqin's hand to calm her down.

Soon, several men in black walked past them menacingly, and Jin Manfei, her daughter, and Chu Zihao approached.

"Mom, our Chu family has been incredibly lucky lately!"

"I secured several tour groups for the company, and General Manager Fang is going to reward me!"

"And you've secured a 300 million yuan order for your company. When luck comes, you can't stop it!"

Chu Zihao was all smiles, boasting to Jin Manfei.

"Hehe, don't praise me like that!"

Jin Manfei smiled and patted his forehead: "It's all thanks to you. President Fang said it's because I have a good son that he gave me this big order!"

"Yeah?"

"Mr. Fang actually praised me so much!"

Chu Zihao said smugly, "It seems that this time our Chu family is going to become famous throughout Jiangnan!"

As she spoke, Jin Manfei glanced over and saw Ye Tianyu and Zhong Shuqin standing by the roadside.

His expression changed instantly, and he immediately turned his gaze forward, pretending not to have seen anything!
