"What kind of question is that? This is my family's company. What's so strange about me? But you, coming to discuss business... It seems the Xiao family doesn't need your involvement, does it?"

Xiao Cha frowned: "What are you pretending for? Everyone knows about my relationship with your brother. Do I need a reason to come here?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know what your relationship was. My brother never mentioned it either. You can't enter the president's office without an appointment. Please leave."

Xiao Cha sneered, put down her bag, crossed her arms, and said, "Nie Kongsang, you really think too highly of yourself. I'm going to go into this office anyway, let's see what you're going to do about it."

Nie Kongsang picked up the landline at the front desk: "Security room? This is Nie Kongsang, the president's assistant. Someone is trying to force their way in. Take people out immediately."

The phone call ended, and Xiao Cha's face twisted in pain: "You bitch, how dare you treat me like this? Do you know I'll soon be your sister-in-law? Don't you care about the future at all?"

Kong Sang stroked his chin: "Oh, then we'll talk about it when you become my sister-in-law. Anyway, you're not now, and there are plenty of women who want to be my sister-in-law, so I won't miss you."

"you……"

Glancing at the silent office door behind her, Xiao Cha, not wanting to lose face, had no choice but to leave in a huff, glaring at Nie Kongsang as she went...

Zhou Jin, who was guarding the door, frowned: "Miss, the president didn't say he wouldn't see Miss Xiao. Isn't this... a bit inappropriate?"

"Since you didn't say you wanted to meet, then proceed as usual. Meeting the president requires an appointment at the front desk. Is there anything wrong with that? Or... are you questioning my work?"

The handsome young receptionist sitting next to Menglin wished he could bury his head in his suit pants.

Was God testing him? The thought of sitting and working with Miss Nie every day made him want to die, especially on the first day... He clashed with President Nie's confidant. Was this really a good thing?

Zhou Jin's scar twitched, revealing a predatory edge. An ordinary girl would probably be frightened, but Kong Sang thought...it was really ugly!

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Zhou Jin lowered his head and said, "Miss is right, it was my fault for being nosy."

Seeing that the man had backed down, Kong Sang withdrew his gaze and said with a gentle smile, "We'll be colleagues from now on, no need to worry about it. Let's go, handsome young man, have some lunch."

It took Xu Lin three seconds to realize that the handsome young man was calling him. He quickly got up and followed him. He wasn't trying to freeload; he simply didn't dare to resist.

Fresh out of university, he impulsively submitted his resume to Nie's company, and to this day he still doesn't know why he was chosen...

He felt like this pie was burning hot... but he was short of money and couldn't afford to give up the high salary from the Nie family, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

Not wanting to be treated like a monkey in the staff canteen, Kong Sang drove his gleaming luxury car and took the handsome young man to a nearby restaurant that was ridiculously expensive.

After the two sat down, Xu Lin glanced at the price list and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Miss, are you treating me to dinner?"

Kong Sang was taken aback: "What if I invite you, and what if I don't?"

"If you treat me, I'll eat more; if you don't, I'll just have some hot water."

"Hahaha." Kong Sang was amused. She just wanted to find someone to eat with so she wouldn't be bored, but she didn't expect this handsome young man to be so interesting.

"Eat without worry, it's on me. From now on, whenever I'm at work, I'll pay for any meals you eat with me."

Xu Lin grinned, revealing his teeth: "Then I won't stand on ceremony. Of course, if you need anything, Miss, just call me. Although I'm not very useful, I can still run errands."

Kong Sang Tao Hua's eyes slanted upwards; she was quite clever...

The two were enjoying their meal when Kong Sang's phone rang; it was Qi Yun Shen.

The entire conversation, from answering to hanging up, took no more than ten seconds, which didn't feel like communicating with a boyfriend at all.

About 20 minutes later, when they had almost finished eating, Qi Yun Shen brought Yu Wei on stage. Yu Wei looked uncomfortable, as if she had something to say.

Xu Lin knew who Qi Yun Shen was. He took a deep breath, swallowed the last bite of his food, and politely excused himself, saying he would get on the carriage and wait for Kong Sang.

Kong Sang tossed the car keys over, and Xu Lin quickly left.

After everyone left, Yu Wei sat opposite Kong Sang and spoke first: "Kong Sang, I'm sorry, that night you asked for help, Yun Shen, he..."

Yu Wei genuinely felt awkward. After all, it was a fact that Qi Yun Shen had neglected his girlfriend while taking care of her who had a cold and fever, and no matter how she explained it, it would seem rather awkward...

Kong Sang glanced at Qi Yun Shen and said with a smile, "It's alright. You two have known each other for so long, I understand. My boyfriend doesn't care if I get stripped naked by his brother, so why should I care?"

"Hiss, stripped naked? Changli is in such a serious situation this time, Kongsang, you..."

Yu Wei didn't know what to say. Qi Yun Shen and Kong Sang getting together was indeed unexpected...

"It's alright, Si was lucky to be there in time, otherwise Yun Shen would probably be green with envy."

Qi Yunshen's eyes flickered for a moment behind his gold-rimmed glasses: "Sorry, I'll be more careful next time."

"Oh, it's nothing. We're not exactly a serious couple anyway, so it's normal that you don't care. I'm not angry. Did you need something from me?"

"Yes, the matter you asked me to investigate has yielded results. All the children on the list match up, except for the one who died, whose identity could not be found, and the mother's identity has also been erased."

Kong Sang's lips curled up: "Wow, I didn't know until I investigated that one of the children born that night has an unknown identity, and it's very likely that it's Yu Wei?"

"That child is you," Yu Wei thought to herself.

Nie Kongsang's identity is very strange. They have no way of finding out about it, as if he was born out of thin air at Jing'an Hospital...

After thinking for a moment, Kong Sang said, "That's enough. You don't need to do the rest."

Qi Yunshen looked at Kongsang: "I can continue the investigation. Just let me know if you need anything."

"Yeah, I know. My boyfriend? I won't be shy about asking for anything. My mom's back, and Ayan's been discharged from the hospital. Do you have time to come over for dinner?"

"How about this weekend? I'll prepare whatever Mrs. Nie likes in advance."

Kong Sang smiled and said, "My mom likes to take care of herself, so just bring some skincare products. I suggest you finish your meal before you come, because you probably won't be able to eat at my house."

Qi Yunshen didn't ask why, but instead asked, "Patriarch Nie... will he come back?"

Kong Sang shook his head: "Ayan didn't even call my dad, so why wouldn't he show up at a mere family banquet? Why... is Yun Shen so interested in my dad?"

“The head of the Nie family has developed a gene drug that has evolved humanity. I naturally want to meet someone who can change the world single-handedly.”

"Hehe, don't regret it. With this connection with me, you'll see me eventually. I have to go to work this afternoon, so please make yourselves at home."

Picking up her black suit jacket, Kong Sang got up and left, seemingly oblivious to the fact that leaving her boyfriend alone with a woman in a restaurant was a rather careless act.

Kong Sang stayed at the company until the end of the workday, and didn't see Nie Jingxing many times throughout the day. He was really busy, and Kong Sang felt that this kind of life was quite good.

If she had known that going to work would allow her to avoid facing the Nie family, why did she have to suffer abuse at home in her past life?

But after a day's work, she obediently got into Nie Jingxing's car and went home. At dinner, there wasn't a single grain of rice in front of her...

Oh my god, I almost forgot, her mom said she wasn't allowed to eat for three days.
