Shen Xin’s travel agency organized a matchmaking trip. As the most handsome male guest, Ye Zhiyou boarded the bus with an icy expression and a domineering aura.
The entire bus fell silent.
Ye Zhiyou looked down at her in surprise. Shen Xin raised the corner of her mouth with great pride: "So, I'm awesome, right?"
Ye Zhiyou chuckled and said to her, "Then I'll take you out for some fresh air?"
"Ah?" Shen Xin was immediately shocked. "No, it's so cold. It's warmer in the car."
"..." Ye Zhiyou couldn't help but raise his hand and knock on her head, "You still have a lot to learn. Get in the car."
"Oh." Shen Xin followed him into the car, still wondering in her heart, could it be that taking her out for some fresh air was also some kind of love confession?
With the Spring Festival holiday over, the streets were much busier than before. The driver drove to the neighborhood where Shen Xin lived and stopped outside her house. Ye Zhiyou got out of the car with Shen Xin and handed her some food that he had just bought at Tianxiaju: "The kitchen staff said to heat it in the oven for a few minutes before eating."
"Okay." Shen Xin took the beautifully packaged box and smiled at Ye Zhiyou, "Then I'll go back first."
Ye Zhiyou saw her turn around and leave, and subconsciously grabbed her hand and pulled her back into his arms. The distance between the two of them suddenly shortened, and Shen Xin looked up at Ye Zhiyou's face so close to her, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
"Just leaving like that?" Ye Zhiyou's voice was very soft and low, with a bewitching charm. Shen Xin looked at him nervously, and spoke stutteringly; "Then, then do you have anything else to say?"
Ye Zhiyou looked at her for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips. Shen Xin's eyes widened. Strictly speaking, this was her first official kiss with Ye Zhiyou.
Ye Zhiyou's lips touched her lips again and again. His movements were very gentle, but Shen Xin almost lost control of the object in her hand. Because he closed his eyes, her proud long eyelashes were more clearly visible. Shen Xin slowly closed her eyes as her heartbeat beat like a drum.
Everything else in the world seemed to have drifted away from her, except for the person in front of her who was concentrating on kissing her. His every breath was so real.
"Ahem." Two warning coughs came from the side, startling Shen Xin awake from her dream. She pushed Ye Zhiyou away reflexively and took two steps back: "Dad?"
"Well, you're back?" Father Shen responded and his eyes fell on Ye Zhiyou.
Ye Zhiyou was caught kissing someone else's daughter at the door of someone else's house. He was actually very panicked, but the more times like this happened, the more he had to stay calm.
"Uncle Shen, good evening." He greeted Shen Xin's father calmly.
Father Shen looked at Ye Zhiyou and smiled without saying anything. Shen Xin was so embarrassed that she just wanted to quickly drag her father home: "Dad, it's windy outside, let's go in first."
"No rush. I just happened to meet Xiao Ye, so I'll chat with him." Father Shen was unmoved.
Shen Xin was in a dilemma. Although her father was not like her brother who might beat people up when impulsive, his smiling face with a dagger hidden behind it made him more terrifying than her brother.
Seeing that her father was unsuccessful in his persuasion, Shen Xin had no choice but to signal Ye Zhiyou to hurry up. Ye Zhiyou understood what she meant, but running away at this moment would only make Shen Xin's father feel worse about him, so he stayed behind reluctantly: "I also happen to have something to discuss with Uncle Shen. My parents want to invite you and Shen Wang to have a simple meal. I wonder when you are free?"
"Oh? Eat?" Father Shen looked at Ye Zhiyou and smiled faintly, "Are you going to talk about your engagement?"
Ye Zhiyou said, "We made this decision without consulting the elders first, which was indeed inappropriate. In addition to discussing this matter, I also want to apologize to you."
Father Shen responded and said slowly, "Don't eat for now. I've talked to your father about this. Xinxin is still young, and you two have known each other for a short time. It's a bit too early to talk about marriage."
After he finished speaking, Ye Zhiyou's mouth tightened. Father Shen smiled at him and slowly added: "But since Xinxin likes you, I don't object to you being together. You should date for a while. There's no rush for engagement."
Ye Zhiyou wanted to say, of course you guys are not in a hurry, but he finally held back: "Since Uncle Shen said so, then the engagement will be postponed."
He thought it through. He originally proposed the engagement just as a delaying tactic. Now he was postponing it, and then he would skip the engagement and get married directly.
He is such a clever little fellow.
Shen Xin didn't expect Ye Zhiyou to be so easy to talk to. He was so strong when he dragged her to buy a ring that day.
Ye Zhiyou turned to look at her and said to her, "You and uncle go inside first. I will be back soon. Remember to heat up the food."
"Yeah, I know." Shen Xin nodded in agreement. Ye Zhiyou said goodbye to them, got in the car and asked the driver to drive away. Shen Xin watched his car drive out and smiled at his father twice: "Haha, Dad, I'm going in first too."
Shen Xin ran away after she finished speaking, fearing that her father would ask her about the kiss she had just had with Ye Zhiyou. Fortunately, her father knew that she was shy, so he didn't ask her anything and followed her home.
On his way home, Ye Zhiyou received a call from Jian Hang. Jian Hang had been helping him deal with Tao Haoran and Li Muyao's affairs these past two days. Li Muyao's team had clarified the news of Li Muyao's relationship that had been exposed online, saying that the two were just ordinary friends. Tao Haoran was also called back to H City by his father these two days, and would not appear in A City in the short term.
"Well, you're doing well, but we still need to keep an eye on their movements, lest they do something behind your back again."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ye, I will pay attention. Also, regarding the engagement party you asked me to do..."
Before Jian Hang could finish his words, Ye Zhiyou interrupted him, "There's no need to prepare for the engagement party for now."
"Ah?" Jian Hang was confused. What happened? Is there something wrong with the relationship between Mr. Ye and Ms. Shen again?
"But you can just help me keep an eye out for marriage-related information. It will be useful in the future anyway."
"...Okay, Mr. Ye." Mr. Ye's emotions were really confusing. "Then how are you going to deal with Li Muyao?"
Although Li Muyao is an artist of Ruiyi, Ye Zhiyou has just returned to Ruiyi and has not done much for Ruiyi. It is indeed inappropriate for him to deal with Ruiyi's most popular artist as soon as he returns.
He said, "Don't worry about this. I will find a way myself."
He had already contacted Li Muyao's agent before, and believed that she would give Li Muyao good advice.
Li Muyao was being scolded by his agent at home at the moment: "You just became famous, and now the first thing we have to do is to maintain your popularity. You know how fierce the competition is in the entertainment industry now. You can become famous overnight, or you can be popular for a while and then quickly fade away. You'd better focus on your work."
Li Muyao sat on the sofa and applied a facial mask. He closed his eyes and didn't look at her: "I've already said that Tao Haoran and I have nothing to do with each other. Do you also think that I would like him?"
The agent pursed his lips and said in a warning tone: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. Recently, Mr. Ye has been investigating Tao Haoran. You'd better stay away from him."
Li Muyao finally opened his eyes and looked at her: "Boss Ye is investigating Tao Haoran?"
"Well, I heard that Mr. Ye is also planning to invest in the tourism industry recently. I wonder what grudges there are between the two of them. It seems that Tao Haoran's return to H City this time is not that simple. You must keep your eyes open."
Li Muyao was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I see. Tao Haoran was the one who kept pestering me."
After the agent left, Li Muyao took off the mask on his face and called his assistant over: "Xiao Luo, I heard that Shen Xin's company is recruiting recently?"
Seeing that she was still not calm after being scolded by the agent, the assistant was a little worried: "Sister Mu Yao, why don't we just not get involved in this matter."
Li Muyao snorted and threw the mask into the trash can beside her. No matter? She fell in love with Ye Zhiyou the first time she saw him in Ruiyi, but she was unknown at that time and didn't dare to climb this high branch. Now she has finally become famous and her career is booming. She thought she could finally stand beside Ye Zhiyou openly, but Shen Xin showed up halfway.
How could she be willing?
She originally wanted to use Wu Jiaying to deal with Shen Xin, but she didn't expect that even Tao Haoran couldn't do anything to her. Since Shen Xin was from a prominent background, she decided to change her mindset.
"Don't be so scared. I don't want to do anything to her. I just thought that since she is recruiting, we should introduce someone to her." Li Muyao smiled at the assistant, "I just happen to have a suitable person here."
Shen Xin has been preparing for the second round of interviews these past two days, and has been screening resumes online every day. However, their company has just been established and is not well-known, so not many people take the initiative to send them resumes.
She also discussed with Ye Zhiyou whether to do some publicity or not. She had worked at Jiyue before, and Jiyue's publicity was still very large. In addition to placing various advertisements, they would also select tourism promotion ambassadors - well, she was one of them before.
Ye Zhiyou's subordinate Ruiyi is a film and television expert. He is not only good at packaging and promotion, but also has ready-made artists. The two of them considered inviting well-known artists to endorse the company, which would instantly increase the company's popularity. However, if they did so, the fans of the endorsement artist might make a scene...
Because of this factor, the endorsement has not been finalized yet, but the placement of promotional ads has already begun. Fortunately, it is a travel company, so it only needs to put some beautiful scenery, and it does not necessarily need people.
"When will this ad be online? I've been looking at it for so many days and not many people have submitted their resumes." Shen Xin sat in front of the computer with her chin in her hand, complaining as she looked at the resumes. She had been looking at resumes online for so many days and had seen people with good qualifications, but unfortunately they didn't like their company. Shen Xin felt that they had no vision. This company was invested by Ye Zhiyou and was about to cooperate with Yu's!
In Xie Kaihuai's words, what they missed was an opportunity to get rich quickly!
Just as she thought of this, she received a new resume.
Shen Xin opened it excitedly and saw the applicant's photo at a glance: "Wow, this guy is quite handsome." The electronic photos on the resume are all standard photos. If he can take such good-looking standard photos, he should look even better in real life.
"Ouyang Tian?" Shen Xin read the name on the resume and nodded. "Not bad, not bad. The surname is Ouyang. It's obvious that he is destined to be the male lead."
