As if afraid that Jian Yixue wouldn't believe her, Qingyan stared intently into Jian Yixue's eyes with a sincere gaze, as if she wanted to prove the truth of her words through this action.
Hearing Qing Yan'e's words, Jian Yixue felt that the girl in front of her was really too sensible and cute.
Looking into her earnest eyes, Jian Yixue nodded solemnly, "I believe you. Aunt Qiu just doesn't know you yet. Once you get to know each other better, she will definitely like you."
"Really?" Qingyan asked.
You see, she really wanted to gain the approval of Jian Yixue's elders.
Seeing this, Jian Yixue nodded.
Qingyan was overjoyed to hear this, "Then I should spend more time with Aunt Qiu, so that she can like me more quickly."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue was taken aback, then her eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
"Qingyan, you are you. You don't need to lose yourself to please anyone. Whether Aunt Qiu likes you or not won't affect our relationship. Since I've chosen to be your friend, I won't change for anyone, unless you betray our friendship. Nothing else will be an obstacle between us."
Upon hearing this, Qingyan looked at Jian Yixue with a serious expression and said, "I will never tarnish our friendship."
Seeing this, Jian Yixue nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing that she had almost finished with her work, Jian Yixue said goodbye to Qingyan, "It's getting late, I have some things to take care of, so I'll be leaving now. If you need any help or anything during this time, please feel free to contact me."
Hearing this, Qingyan smiled and nodded. "I'm fine. Sister Youluo and the others have taken good care of me. You go ahead with your work. I was just about to go into seclusion to design a unique cheongsam for Sister Youju."
Hearing You Luo's words, Jian Yixue smiled with relief.
In fact, she knew that Youluo knew Qingyan was her friend and would definitely take good care of her.
However, she couldn't help but care about Qingyan, fearing that she might be too proud to face the situation alone.
"Okay, I'm leaving now, no need to see me off."
Qingyan, who was about to get up to see someone off, stopped and nodded obediently.
Upon seeing this, Jian Yixue left the room, and Qingyan watched her leave.
He took a deep breath, then sat down at the desk and chair next to him, preparing to draw a draft.
Aside from the room, Jian Yixue greeted the others as she passed through the living room before leaving the apartment.
——
Ye Group, President's Office
Beside the desk, Ye Mohan, dressed in a black custom-made suit, sat upright in his office chair.
Holding a pile of documents to be signed in his left hand, he quickly skimmed through them, made a decision in his mind, and wrote down his suggestions and signature with his right hand.
After signing, he immediately closed the document, picked it up with his right hand, and handed it to Lin Yi, who was standing to the side. Lin Yi quickly took it.
After processing more than a dozen documents, Ye Mohan put down his pen and stretched his wrists.
Seeing this, Lin Yi, thinking of recent events, respectfully reported, "President, news has come from Y Country that all of Second Master's businesses have closed down. Even the territories we vandalized were not reported to the police, but instead closed for rectification. They haven't given any details about why they will resume operations."
Lin Yi was not unaware that this was Second Master's plan.
It must be said, Second Master really has great courage.
It's important to understand that with Second Master's publicly known businesses in Country Y, the losses from a single day of closure would likely be in the tens of millions, not to mention his clandestine and shady businesses.
The fact that the business was shut down shows that Second Master knew that the incident was the president's doing. He was also aware of the president's style of doing things and knew that the president would not let him leave easily, so he shut down the business for rectification.
Others may not understand how important the wife is to the CEO, but he, as the special assistant, understands it very well.
If it were Second Master plotting against the President, the President wouldn't be so angry.
But he had the audacity to hurt the president's precious daughter, whom he cherished so dearly; how could he possibly leave unscathed?
Upon hearing Lin Yi's report, Ye Mohan's lips curled into a wicked and sinister smile, and he snorted coldly, "It seems my second uncle knows my temperament quite well."
So what? If you hurt his woman, you can forget about getting away with it!
His second uncle must have underestimated him to think that such a small loss could quell his anger.
"Give the order: the plan for Y country will proceed as scheduled," Ye Mohan said coldly.
Lin Yi immediately understood Ye Mohan's meaning and nodded respectfully and earnestly.
Second Master, of all people to offend, you had to provoke the CEO.
This time, even if you suspend operations for rectification, it will be of no use.
Just as Lin Yi was about to say something more, there was a knock on the office door.
Ye Mohan frowned, looked over, his expression cold, seemingly displeased at being interrupted.
He knew very well that the person who came couldn't be Jian Yixue, so he wouldn't treat her with any kindness at all.
Jian Yixue had just messaged him; she was finished with her work and was going home to wait for him.
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Yi also frowned and looked over.
Thinking about how she had been interrupted, and wondering if the other person had heard her conversation, her expression turned sour.
Shortly afterward, the front door was pushed open from the outside.
When they saw who it was, their brows furrowed even more, and their expressions were full of displeasure.
Huangfu Xin'er walked in through the door, wearing a milky white dress and swaying her hips as she walked towards Ye Mohan, pretending to be a lady.
Huangfu Xin'er stopped in front of the desk, a well-behaved and sensible smile on her face. "Brother Mo Han."
Ye Mohan frowned, feeling quite displeased.
He had already made his stance clear last time, but he never expected that Huangfu Xin'er would come looking for him again so soon.
It seems that his refusal was not straightforward or decisive enough.
Out of consideration for Huangfu Ming's friendship, he couldn't afford to make a scene, so he said without any emotion, "Hmm, what is it?"
Huangfu Xin'er smiled and looked at Lin Yi standing next to Ye Mohan.
Lin Yi immediately understood.
This means they think he's in their way!
But he also knew very well that even without Ye Mohan, the president would definitely remain chaste for his wife.
Then, Lin Yi made an excuse and respectfully said to Ye Mohan, "President, I need to go out and arrange some things. All departments are in a hurry for these documents."
Ye Mohan knew perfectly well why Lin Yi was doing this. He frowned and nodded without any expression on his face.
Lin Yi nodded with a sigh of relief.
He then took a stack of documents and left the office.
Lin Yi closed the door for Ye Mohan as he walked outside, then went to his seat, still feeling uneasy after thinking it over.
It wasn't that he didn't trust the CEO; he was afraid that Huangfu Xin'er would use tricks against him.
