Di Xu had no idea there would be such a turn of events. Besides, he was quite frightened by the true identity of the woman in front of him, whom he thought was a lady from a wealthy family but was actually a gangster boss's junior sister.
"Boss, stop fooling around!"
Di Xu felt a chill run down his spine when he saw Yan Bo's meaningful smile.
When did my boss become so awful? How could he make fun of such a beautiful young woman!
When Tong Xiaohuai heard that the young and handsome man in front of her was the senior she admired, she quickly stood up and reached out her hand to him.
"Hello, senior brother, my name is Tong Xiaohuai!"
Tong Xiaohuai naturally sensed Di Xu's doubt and added, "Yan Bo is right, I do come from the Tong family."
Di Xu felt as if his glasses had been dropped to the ground. At the same time, he realized that he needed to revise his definition of a rich heiress.
"Hello, my name is Di Xu. Oh, you're also a student at L University! I really regret being born a few years too early!"
Di Xu reached out and shook Tong Xiaohuai's hand, but his compliment earned him a fierce glare from Yan Bo.
Ignoring the boss's fierce glare, Di Xu released Tong Xiaohuai's hand and then patted her shoulder familiarly, "Please sit down! I haven't been back to school for a long time, it must have changed a lot now, right?"
Yan Bo was quite annoyed by Di Xu's overbearing behavior, but he couldn't say it outright. Besides, Di Xu hadn't even answered the question he had just thrown at him, and he was already rushing to befriend and build a relationship with the beautiful junior sister.
"Di Xu, we can catch up later. Why don't you answer Xiao Huai's question first?"
Di Xu was stunned for a moment before he remembered that the boss had indeed thrown a question at him as soon as he entered the door.
"Oh... Boss, you mean the Tong family's nightclubs and bars, right? They're pretty good. If they weren't, they wouldn't be the industry leaders in L City, would they?"
The nightclubs, bars, and KTVs owned by the Tong family were indeed booming. However, the reason that the Tong family was involved in organized crime was only a small part of the reason. The main reason was that the Tong family managed their businesses well, and both their standards and the services they provided were at the forefront of the industry.
Yan Bo didn't have much to say on this matter, because he had only been in L City for two or three months. Of the many entertainment venues in the Tong family's area, he had only been to the health club where he had a chance encounter with Tong Xiaohuai, and the dynamic bar where Tong Xiaohuai had invited him for drinks.
Di Xu, however, was different. Before coming to Yanhuang, he had served as the deputy general manager of a large company. Most of the places he frequented for business were entertainment venues owned by the Tong family, so he knew a great deal about them.
However, given that the beautiful junior sister in front of him is the head of these entertainment venues, he could only say the good things.
Tong Xiaohuai naturally understood that Di Xu's words were an attempt to downplay the seriousness of the matter, and that the truthfulness of his words was probably at most 50%.
"Senior brother, please feel free to point out any shortcomings or suggestions. It's rare for me to meet someone who dares to speak the truth."
Di Xu glanced at his boss, whose expression was no different from usual, but the slight pursing of his lips revealed his displeasure.
It has to be said that those who can become the boss's special assistant are all masters of reading people's expressions.
In particular, the skill level of understanding the boss's thoughts is almost off the charts.
"Junior sister is too modest. I'm just an outsider, what advice could I possibly have?"
Although Di Xu really wanted to flirt with his always gentle and polite boss, he had to suppress the mischievous idea when he thought about the leave application he had just submitted.
Yan Bo finally relaxed his slightly pursed lips and stared at Di Xu. "Give me the meeting minutes. Go and make a budget for that piece of land in Dongcheng."
From the moment Yan Bo learned that Tong Xiaohuai had a blind admiration for her senior brother Di Xu, he had already made up his mind to be wary of Di Xu.
But since Di Xu had come to him of his own accord, he couldn't be stingy and hide Tong Xiaohuai away.
He pretended to be generous and introduced the two of them. As he had expected, Tong Xiaohuai had an unusually strong attachment to Di Xu, like a senior brother.
Feeling a pang of jealousy, Yan Bo couldn't vent his anger, so he could only send Di Xu away under the guise of work.
Di Xu is nearly ten years older than Yan Bo. While he may not be as capable as Yan Bo in business, he is naturally much more experienced in matters of the heart.
Seeing that the boss was eager to kick him out, but was too proud and polite to ask for a reasonable excuse to leave, he couldn't resist his wicked thoughts and handed his business card to Tong Xiaohuai.
"Junior sister, this is my business card. If you have any problems with your studies or work in the future, just come to me. As long as it is within my power, I will do anything to help you."
Yan Bo stared intently at Di Xu, his eyes clearly saying, "Get lost!"
Tong Xiaohuai smiled as she accepted the business card, offering a brief thank you, "Thank you, senior!"
Di Xu walked out of the CEO's office under the boss's cold gaze. As soon as he left, Miss Guo caught a glimpse of his shadow and quickly stepped forward to ask for some gossip.
"So, so, which family's young lady is she?"
Di Xu considered Tong Xiaohuai's true identity, unsure if his boss would be willing to publicize it, so he shook his head.
"I'm not quite sure either... The boss didn't say!"
So it seems that, occasionally, he is still a very professional and ethical employee.
Miss Guo glanced at him sideways, half-believing and half-doubting, "You really didn't say anything?"
After raising his questions, he turned around, picked up a prop he had prepared beforehand—a pot of freshly brewed coffee—and prepared to go inside and test the waters.
Thinking about his situation just now, with his back full of arrows, Di Xu grabbed Miss Guo.
"Sister Guo, forget it, you'd better not go in and disturb the boss. The boss hasn't said how many days of holiday there will be in October yet!"
Ms. Guo hesitated for a moment, but finally took the coffee back to her seat.
Compared to the October holiday, let's forget about gossip.
Yan Bo, sitting in his office, stared at the business card in Tong Xiaohuai's hand, a wave of sourness rising in his stomach.
"Xiao Huai, why don't you come to my house for a while?"
Yanbo always felt unsafe staying here.
That was Di Xu just now, but who knows who might be the inconsiderate person to come in and disturb us next?
Tong Xiaohuai did not answer him immediately, but instead turned her gaze to his desk.
On the large desk, there was a tall stack of documents.
"Never mind, you go ahead with your work. I'll sit here for a while. I hope I'm not bothering you?"
Yan Bo did have a lot of urgent things to deal with, and under her repeated insistence, he had no choice but to obediently return to his desk to do his own thing.
However, this was only because Tong Xiaohuai had promised to have dinner at his house that evening, and only then would he obediently listen to her.
While Yan Bo was busy with official business, Tong Xiaohuai was not idle either. She took out an account book from her backpack and began to read it carefully.
