Fang Xue nodded blankly, cooperating with Luo Chen; she had already developed resistance to Luo Chen's words.

Don't believe what people say; listen to what you truly believe.

[Haha, bye-bye, I'm off work now. You two can have fun. Damn, I lost out big time. Next time, I'll definitely get the boss's wife to give it to me for free, then I won't feel bad. Hmm, that's a good idea. You're quite the clever one.]

"Luo Chen!"

Fang Xue stared at Luo Chen with a dangerous look in her eyes, which startled Luo Chen, who was quite puzzled.

Fang Xue was both angry and amused. She was angry because she had no relation to Ye Lin at all, yet Luo Chen had referred to them as a couple, which made Fang Xue very angry.

What's funny is that Luo Chen actually wanted to take the roses for free. Would the proprietress agree to that?

Only someone who's crazy would do that!

This guy is incredibly stingy. As the eldest young master of the Luo family, he's so stingy, humph!

"Xue'er, what's wrong?" Luo Chen asked cautiously.

"Get out of here, I don't want to see you!"

Fang Xue waved her hand dismissively. She really wanted to say it out loud so she could hear Luo Chen's thoughts, but after thinking about it carefully, she decided against it.

Luo Chen was confused, and Fang Xue didn't bother to look at him.

[Huh, is the Ice Queen back to normal? She's actually in a hurry to get rid of me? Oh, I see, the main characters are still here, they need to develop their relationship. Sigh. I was careless, I actually became a third wheel.]

"Luo Chen, aren't you leaving yet!"

Fang Xue was really afraid she couldn't hold back anymore. This guy kept talking about her in his mind, which made her heart ache with anger.

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go, Xue'er, don't be angry, I'll leave right now."

With a fawning expression, Luo Chen reluctantly left, turning back every few steps.

Ye Lin watched the whole thing from the sidelines without saying a word. He didn't take Luo Chen's hostility to heart. After what had just happened, Ye Lin was confident that Fang Xue had feelings for him.

So, she was his woman, and of course he had to pamper his own woman. Therefore, Ye Lin no longer cared about Luo Chen.

Insignificant ants can be destroyed with a flick of the finger.

Fang Xue was left with Ye Lin. She completely ignored Ye Lin's gentleness and became increasingly indifferent.

"Lin Ye, I have something to tell you."

"What a coincidence, I also have something to say to you."

Ye Lin gave a wicked smile and put on a gentlemanly demeanor: "Xue'er, ladies first, you go first."

Ye Lin's wicked smile made Fang Xue feel a wave of nausea. She forced herself to vomit, turned her head away, and said, "Although I am very grateful to you for saving my father, and our Fang family will remember this favor, I hope you will not take this opportunity to overstep your bounds."

Ye Lin's expression changed, and he said, puzzled, "I don't understand what you mean."

Fang Xue didn't turn around.

Remembering Luo Chen's thoughts, Fang Xue couldn't help but sigh.

Luo Chen's words implied that the two of them would meet at the train station that day, and that Ye Lin would step forward to stop Luo Chen because of his entanglement, and even hit Luo Chen.

She would be grateful to Ye Lin for getting rid of Luo Chen's entanglement, thank him for inviting her to a meal, and then ask him some questions.

Upon learning that Ye Lin had just arrived in Ningcheng, had no relatives or friends, and was unemployed, Fang invited Ye Lin to work for the Fang Group as a token of gratitude.

Ye Lin is exceptionally skilled. Since the security department is short of a minister, Ye Lin will be appointed as the security minister. That's how things should go.

Unexpectedly, she was framed by her best friend Xiao Ya and ended up in the supervisory bureau, which caused her to stray from the right path.

At that time, Fang Xue thought about it but didn't pay much attention. She didn't expect that Ye Lin would still have contact with her.

Yesterday, her father, Fang Wu, was on a business trip when an unexpected incident occurred. Several thugs attempted to kidnap Fang Wu, and all the bodyguards accompanying him were beaten down.

Ye Lin appeared at this moment and saved Fang Wu. The thugs were driven away. To thank Ye Lin, Fang Wu took him back to the Fang family. This was the first time Fang Wu had met Ye Lin.

Fang Wu originally wanted to repay Ye Lin in other ways as a token of gratitude, but unexpectedly, Ye Lin refused, saying that giving him a job would be enough.

Fang Wu readily agreed. There happened to be a vacancy for the position of security minister, and Ye Lin didn't hesitate to choose it.

Today was supposed to be the day for an announcement and for Ye Lin to be assigned to his post, but Ye Lin was late, and then what just happened occurred.

Fang Xue remained silent for a long time. The thought of the connections between these events and the falseness of this world made her feel very unreal.

But there's no way I can't disbelieve it.

Your true feelings don't lie.

What Luo Chen said is true.

Fang Xue was terrified. If Luo Chen's words were true, it meant that she would have more contact with Ye Lin, and eventually become Ye Lin's woman. In that case, her fate would be tied to Ye Lin's.

This is not what she wanted.

She didn't want others to interfere in her affairs, nor did she want her fate to be arranged for her inexplicably.

Fang Xue made up her mind; she was determined to change her fate and change this damned plot.

"Xue'er, why aren't you saying anything?" Ye Lin asked, puzzled.

Fang Xue snapped out of her daze, paused, and said coldly, "Lin Ye, that's not your original name, is it?"

"..." Ye Lin's pupils contracted, and after a long silence, he finally spoke: "How did you know?"

“That’s right, my name isn’t Lin Ye, it’s Ye Lin.”

“I have investigated you. Although I am very grateful to you for saving my father, I am not familiar with you, so naturally I need to know some things about you. I apologize for that.”

Fang Xue naturally wouldn't tell Ye Lin because Luo Chen's inner voice already knew.

Hearing this, Ye Lin felt a sense of relief and then smiled, saying, "Xue'er, I was also wrong about this. I shouldn't have lied to you using a fake name."

"Hmm, I don't mind," Fang Xue said calmly.

"..." Ye Lin was speechless.

"You can use whatever name you want, it has nothing to do with me. I just wanted to tell you that you should stop meddling in my affairs. Since Father has arranged for you to be the head of security, then you should do your job well and not overstep your authority."

"I am your boss, the president of this group. Everything I do is outside your professional scope, do you understand?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Xue'er. Don't worry, I'll be careful about these things."

Ye Lin knew what kind of person Fang Xue was and understood her personality. In order not to make Fang Xue dislike him, he could agree to this request, since Fang Xue was already the woman he had chosen.

Ye Lin wasn't in a hurry at all, thinking he could just change it later.

"besides……"

"What else, Xue'er? You can say it," Ye Lin said casually.

Fang Xue finally looked at Ye Lin. Seeing that the charming smile that didn't make her feel nauseous, Fang Xue stared at Ye Lin and said in a cold tone, word by word, "President Fang."

"???"

"You can call me Fang Xue, but you can't call me Xue'er. I have no relation to you, so please don't use any terms that could cause misunderstandings."

"Snow……"

Before he could finish speaking, Fang Xue stared at him coldly, which made Ye Lin feel indignant.

"Okay, President Fang... I want to know the reason." Ye Lin asked, barely suppressing his anger.
