Zhuang Li carefully and meticulously adjusted Feng Ming's tie. His slender fingertips would occasionally touch Feng Ming's Adam's apple or neck, then gently stroke his burning chest and whisper softly, "Alright."
Feng Ming's whole body was stiff, but the blood in his body was slowly boiling.
There is no other moment that can make him more comfortable, happy and addicted than now.
He finally found the joy of work. If every day were like this...
Thinking of this, Feng Ming felt a burst of foolish joy in his heart.
Zhuang Li picked up the document, looked at it, and asked, "Why haven't you left work yet? Isn't it your style to leave at the appointed time?"
Feng Ming was secretly happy: "...How did you know?"
Fuck! Which bastard sold me out? Am I such an unprofessional CEO?
"I'm sorry, I was so eager to get to know you that I asked a few questions." Zhuang Li said a little embarrassedly.
With just this one sentence, Feng Ming's embarrassment and awkwardness disappeared completely, and bubbles of happiness popped up in his heart one after another.
He grinned and said cheerfully, "It's okay. Just ask me if you want to know anything. I'll tell you everything."
"Really?" Zhuang Li raised the corners of his crimson lips, his smile quiet yet beautiful. "I was a little worried that Mr. Feng might be difficult to communicate with, but now I realize I was worrying too much. Talking to Mr. Feng, I really feel at ease."
He thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, I do have my own work principles. Would you like to hear them?"
"What are your working principles?" Feng Ming subconsciously sat up straight.
"I have two principles: first, never say NO to your boss; second, your boss's needs always come first." Zhuang Li held up two fingers.
Feng Ming was stunned for a moment, then asked with a gloomy face: "Did you treat your former boss like this too?"
He swallowed his anger and continued, "How could your former boss be willing to let you go?"
If it were him, he would give up everything to keep Mr. Da Mi by his side. Where could he find such a good person?
Zhuang Li shook his head and said, "Not really. I left my previous company because my personality wasn't respected, my value wasn't realized, and my rights weren't protected. Mr. Feng, do you know?"
He leaned forward slightly, staring into Feng Ming's eyes without blinking, his voice soft and gentle like some kind of chant: "The flow of emotions is two-way. If you respect me, I will respect you; if you protect me, I will protect you; if you understand me, I will naturally understand you. So-"
He spread his hands and smiled happily. "I have received respect, protection, and understanding from you, so my principles only apply to you. In other words, what you say, Mr. Feng, is always right to me. I will not refuse any of your requests; I will also do my best to fulfill your wishes."
He leaned back in his chair, his eyes and brows relaxed and bright.
Feng Ming was so overwhelmed by his words that he almost couldn't help but let out a silly grin. He quickly lowered his head and pretended to ponder, but his ears quickly became swollen and red.
It’s terrible!
How on earth did he pick up such a good big secret? He might have spent all his life's luck on this!
Feng Ming was so happy that he was rolling around in his heart, but he pretended to be serious on the surface.
He suppressed the corner of his mouth that was about to turn upward and refuted seriously: "Actually, not everything I say is right. If you have any questions, you should raise them and we can discuss it together."
"No need. Everything you say, Mr. Feng, is ultimately about running the company well, and I just need to follow that direction." Zhuang Li waved his hand. "So there's no need to discuss. I have the ability to turn every one of Mr. Feng's ideas into reality."
That's why he dared to say that.
A strong person doesn't need help or negotiation. Just give him a direction and he'll reach the end.
Feng Ming couldn't utter a word, but his heart was beating wildly.
How could Mr. Secretary be so humble and elegant, yet so powerful and charming? Damn it, the dizziness was coming back!
Feng Ming held his forehead and then covered his mouth.
He couldn't help it, he had to grin.
Zhuang Li pointed at the marketing plan and said slowly, "So I don't need to look at this for now. I want to hear what you, Mr. Feng, envision for the future of this company and what goals you are trying to achieve."
This is what it means to have a long and heart-to-heart talk.
Feng Ming immediately stopped smiling and said frankly, "Actually, I don't have any ideas or goals..." He recounted the whole story of how he was forced to take over the company.
"So, you have no interest in taking over the family business, and you will resign after one year?" Zhuang Li's tone was quite calm.
Feng Ming had originally planned to do so, but now he couldn't agree to it no matter what. This meant that he and Mr. Da Mi only had one year to spend together.
A year later, he leaves the company, and Mr. Secretary becomes someone else's secretary, adjusting their ties, saying such sweet words to them, and helping them realize their wishes and dreams...
Feng Ming clenched his fists, the irritability and bitterness in his heart surged wildly, and he couldn't suppress it no matter how hard he tried.
"But I've changed my mind now." He gritted his teeth and said, "I want to win. Will you help me?"
If Mr. Secretary could stay by his side all the time and work from nine to five every day, it would not seem unbearable for him.
Thinking of Mr. Big Secretary's eyes that glowed when he smiled and the cool touch of his fingertips as he adjusted his tie, Feng Ming shook his head and thought to himself: No, it's not tolerable, it's simply enjoyable. He decided that he would work hard! He would keep Mr. Big Secretary no matter what!
"I want to turn Yilan into a profitable company within a year, and I want to inherit the Feng Group. I hope you can help me." Feng Ming raised his head, his eyes full of determination.
Zhuang Li chuckled softly: "Do you remember my principles, Mr. Feng? I will do everything I can to help you realize your wish. So——"
He held Feng Ming's hands with his own and said slowly and firmly, "If you want to win, then I will help you win. If you want Yilan to be profitable, then I will make it profitable. If you want to inherit the family business, then I will give you the Feng family's salary."
He looked deeply into Feng Ming's eyes and said firmly, "I will help you realize every idea you have."
Feng Ming held these hands tightly, with undercurrents and heat surging in his heart.
In the past, he hated and avoided family feuds; but now, he suddenly developed unprecedented ambitions.
Damn it, for Mr. Secretary, he would go through fire and water!
"Then let's work together." Feng Ming shook his hands up and down, feeling both moved and satisfied.
"Okay, let's walk the future together." Zhuang Li smiled beautifully.
Feng Ming stared at him infatuatedly, forgetting to move his eyes.
Zhuang Li scratched the back of his hand with his fingertips and said with a smile, "Boss Feng, we can go home now. If you still need to work overtime every day with my assistance, then that would be my incompetence."
Feng Ming quickly let go of Mr. Da Mi's hand and stood up reluctantly.
After Mr. Secretary joined the company, he suddenly felt that overtime culture was actually quite good. 996, 007, totally fine! Why leave work so early? Is it fun to go home and play games alone?
Being with Mr. Secretary is better than anything else.
Feng Ming suppressed his disappointment and returned to the office dejectedly to pack his things.
Zhuang Li looked at his back and said softly, "Boss Feng, my car has been sent for repairs. Could you please take me home?"
"Of course! No problem!" Feng Ming immediately turned around and responded loudly.
"How long will it take to repair your car?" he asked immediately, with anticipation in his eyes.
"I don't know, maybe three or four days." Zhuang Li frowned in distress.
"Then I'll pick you up and drop you off in the next few days!" Feng Ming quickly took on the job.
"Will it be troublesome?" Zhuang Li asked worriedly.
"No trouble, no trouble. I'll go back and pack my things and come to see you later." Feng Ming, who was dejected just now, is now full of energy with shining eyes.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Feng." Zhuang Li bowed with a smile.
Feng Ming waved his hand as he walked out of the office excitedly. In this life, due to his privileged upbringing, his mind was very simple, and his emotions were almost all written on his face.
Zhuang Li shook his head and smiled silently for a while before looking at ShuVi who was trapped in his computer.
"It's been five hours and twenty minutes now. Have you cracked the first code?" Zhuang Li asked after the video connection.
ShuVi's face, originally pale, immediately turned red upon hearing those words.
After five hours, she still couldn't break through the first line of defense. This was a setback she had never encountered before.
"I will break up with Wu Zirui, don't worry." She said gritting her teeth.
"Don't rely on anyone for your life, not even your own children. It is better to rely on yourself than on anyone else. I think you understand this principle better than me. You are where you are today not because of anyone's charity or help, but because you have walked step by step on your own. The person you should thank and love the most is yourself." Zhuang Li said earnestly.
ShuVi fell silent, tears flickering in her eyes.
These words sent ripples through her heart. No one had ever acknowledged her efforts or praised her excellence.
When they heard that she was an orphan, homeless and wandering around, everyone would look at her with contempt and even suspect that she had some illegal source of income.
But the man before him was not like that. His gaze remained calm from beginning to end, even revealing a hint of admiration. He showed no pity, and thus took it for granted that this was the best way to treat him.
However, ShuVi still had one thing on her mind.
"Why do you hate Wu Zirui? He's your biological son, right?"
She didn't like parents who didn't treat their children well. If Zhuang Li could be nicer to Wu Zirui, then this person would be perfect.
"He is the child born from Wu Qiqi's affair with someone else. He knew this earlier than I did. Now his biological father is back, rich and powerful, so he is planning to make me divorce Wu Qiqi, and he wants to find something to hold against me to divide my property. If you raised him well for fourteen years and he treated you like this in the end, what would you do?" Zhuang Li asked back.
ShuVi suddenly realized what was going on, then frowned in disgust: "I'll make him eat shit!"
It turns out that everything Wu Zirui told her was a lie! He has no gratitude towards his father who raised him for more than ten years, and he even plays dirty tricks behind her back. This man is so disgusting!
Having resolved the last knot in her heart, ShuBi decisively said, "I'll break up with him. I hate people who betray their own people the most!"
When she mentioned the words "eating in one's own home and betraying one's own people", she couldn't help but reveal a ferocious look. It seems that she is also a person with a story.
