Gao Ren then saw that Elena, just like Aji, could almost conjure an exquisite dagger out of thin air.

However, the dagger in her hand was a few inches smaller than the dagger in Ah Ji's hand.

But the cold glint emanating from the blade is just as dangerous.

But just as Elena was about to further intimidate this emperor who had single-handedly changed the entire Southeast Asian ecosystem,

Let's see if he managed to get everything done by relying on the power of the north, as rumored, or if it was through his own strength.

Just as the dagger in her hand was about to reach Gao Ren,

The next second,

The dagger in her hand vanished instantly, before she could even recover from the shock.

Then Gao Ren was seen playing with the dagger that had originally belonged to her, while saying with a slightly teasing expression,

"Playing with such dangerous weapons at work, Miss Elena!"

"You're very unprofessional as a secretary!"

Elena saw the mockery in Gao Ren's eyes, but felt no resentment at being humiliated.

on the contrary,

Her curiosity about Gao Ren is growing stronger!

Because the person in front of me now is a completely different person from the one in the rumors!

At the very least, the rumored Gao Ren definitely doesn't have skills that overwhelm me!

"Boss, could you please not deduct my salary?"

"I need my salary to buy cosmetics and take care of my face!"

Although Elena's face remained calm, the favorability rating on her head couldn't fool Gao Ren.

Seeing the favorability rating increase from fifteen to thirty, it almost doubled.

Gao Ren then sighed inwardly.

Oh ho, she's still a little wildcat who likes to be abused!

Then let me, Ren-ge, give you a good beating and make you develop Stockholm Syndrome!

"That depends on whether the news you bring satisfies me!"

After saying that, Gao Ren tossed the dagger to her and resumed eating his fried dough sticks.

Elena looked at the dagger she had recovered, a smile spreading across her alluring face, but within that smile lay a mysterious allure that defied easy comprehension...
