Chapter 38 Appointment



Now it seems there are still many things she doesn't know. Xu Zhaoyue secretly noted down these suspicious points, and she would uncover the truth sooner or later, but not now.

Yue Lanxing was unaware that his fabricated identity had caused a problem. He just wanted to take back what he had said earlier. The food was really good. Despite his elegant movements, he was actually very fast. In the blink of an eye, half of the food was already in his stomach.

Xu Zhaoyue's mood improved after she had the idea to explore the mystery, and she continued to eat some more.

It was already two or three o'clock when the two of them returned to the company. Cui Bai knew that he would have to do the experiment by himself in the afternoon when he saw that his uncle had not returned at noon. He even complained to Tian Dai that his uncle and master both liked to be hands-off managers.

When he saw Xu Zhaoyue enter the laboratory, he was surprised. "Uncle-Master? Why are you back?"

"Hey, what's with that tone? It's like I often skip work." Xu Zhaoyue, wearing goggles, clearly showed her speechless expression.

Cui Bai immediately said, "I didn't mean that. It's just that Tian Dai said that my master and Yue... Yue-ge went out for a walk. I thought we should go out and have some fun."

"Oh? It's just that we went out for a meal and walked a bit far, which took a lot of time to get there and back. I have so much work to do, how can I just go out and play like this? I think you want to take a vacation and rest."

Xu Zhaoyue looked around and saw that all the researchers were doing their own things, so she raised her voice a little, "I've read the experimental report. We'll have results in two weeks, and more than half a month to test the effects. Then everyone can have a good rest and take a paid vacation."

"Great! We'll definitely work hard!" A lively girl responded to Xu Zhaoyue immediately, and the others also cheered up. "Manager Xu, we made a promise, we can't go back on it."

"The experiment was a success, why would I regret it? Okay, everyone, let's get back to work." Xu Zhaoyue also threw herself into her work.

However, Xu Zhaoming, who was also angry that morning, was not so comfortable. It was originally her classmate's idea to find an opportunity to go to the laboratory, but she messed it up.

"Couldn't you have stopped me from ordering? Now look what's happened, I won't be able to get in at all." Xu Zhaoming casually picked up a document and threw it at his assistant, but the assistant caught it.

"It's your own fault for losing your temper, how can you blame me?" Assistant Qi rolled his eyes inwardly, but then looked up with a smile. "It's my fault, but Manager Xu, we've already alerted them this time, so they probably won't have a chance to get in again."

"Why not focus your energy on the anniversary celebration? September 15th is still quite a long time away, but with all the things to do, it will be here in no time," the assistant said earnestly.

Xu Zhaoming was indeed concerned about the anniversary celebration. She read the reports every day and often had people come over to give reports. However, she had nothing in her mind and just listened. She didn't know whether the presenters were serious or perfunctory.

"Alright, I understand, but you need to think of another way to handle this. Try to smooth things over with those researchers. Don't you know how to poach talent?" Xu Zhaoming still hadn't given up on this approach.

Assistant Qi could only nod; as for how to implement it, that would depend on his own ideas.

After Xu Zhaoyue got off work and returned to the villa, she immediately announced the news to everyone. Everyone was summoned to the front hall. "From today onwards, Yue Lanxing will be the butler of Yuewan Villa. His authority is second only to mine. If there is anything, report to him first."

As soon as the news broke, everyone exchanged glances, unsure of what the young lady meant. Xiao Nan, standing behind the young lady, couldn't help but glance at Yue Lanxing. She hadn't expected that this kid would actually gain the young lady's favor. Although she felt it was only a matter of time, it was still too fast.

Looking at the whispering servants in front of him, Yue Lanxing reintroduced himself, "Hello everyone, from today onwards, I, Yue Lanxing, will be the villa's housekeeper. This is my first time doing this job, so I will need your help."

"Yes, Butler Yue." Without hesitation, everyone respectfully addressed Butler Yue.

Afterwards, Yue Lanxing went to consult Butler Xu, while Xiao Nan helped the young lady back to her room.

"Yue Lanxing doesn't understand anything yet. What if he makes a mistake if he becomes the butler so soon?" Xiao Nan was completely considering things from the young lady's perspective. If Yue Lanxing made a mistake, wouldn't that delay the young lady's affairs?

Xu Zhaoyue, holding Xiao Nan's hand, said, "Sometimes making mistakes isn't a bad thing. Besides, everyone in the villa has their own job. If I appoint a housekeeper and mistakes happen, it just means there's something wrong with the people below."

“I made him both the housekeeper and the bodyguard. He definitely won’t spend as much time at home as you do, so you’ll have to keep an eye on many things, especially this time when we’re doing another screening.”

Xiao Nan said, somewhat puzzled, "But we already had a few people fined last time. If there are more, won't our villa be riddled with holes?"

Xu Zhaoyue smiled and shook her head. This time, she wasn't screening Xu Zhaoming's people. "I don't want anyone in the villa to have ulterior motives. No one can have ulterior motives."

"Okay, Xiaonan understands." Xiaonan looked at the young lady with a determined gaze. She knew what the young lady meant. No matter who had ulterior motives, as long as there were ulterior motives, there would be potential hidden dangers. She would definitely observe carefully.

"What should I do, Xiaonan? You've grown up with me since you were little. Besides you, there's no one else I can trust like this." Xu Zhaoyue suddenly felt melancholy. She reached out and hugged Xiaonan's waist, resting her head on her body.

Xiao Nan didn't know why the young lady was unhappy, so she could only stroke her head and smooth her hair. The young lady was sleeping soundly, and her hair was smooth and soft, making her feel like a kitten when touched. "I will always stand by the young lady's side."
