Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

"President Xu, we've arrived at Leng Hai in China!"

"Hmm, is this Lenghai? Wow, it's not much different from the capital of South Korea!"

"Hehe, China has always had a very rapid pace of economic development, and Lenghai is its economic center, so this is naturally reflected even more clearly..."

"Hmm, where's Li Shuo? Does he know I'm in Lenghai?"

"You arrived in such a hurry that I only found out when I stopped you at the airport, so our boss probably won't know about your trip to China until tomorrow morning..."

"Oh? Really? I only heard Li Shuo brag about how huge his Shuoguo Group was and how strong its business capabilities were. How come the boss was so slow to find out about something as small as my visit?"

"Forehead……"

Around 1 a.m., Xu Ji and her group got off the plane and walked out of the airport, chatting as they went... well, it wasn't really chatting, because Han Enqing was constantly bending over and sideways, awkwardly answering Xu Ji's questions!
Seo Hee is not a little girl, but the high-ranking president of South Korea's top law firm. Before meeting Lee Seok, she had been unemployed for many years. As everyone knows, it's not a big deal if the land is always empty, but it's terrible to be cultivated and then suddenly abandoned. That feeling is simply torture!

Just then, news of the China-Korea Song Festival came back, especially the appearance of "X". Xu Ji looked at it and realized that it was her own man. When did he become an actor?

Unlike ordinary people, Seohyun was always against her adopted daughter Seohyun becoming a trainee at SM Entertainment. She even severed ties with her daughter at one point. It wasn't until Seohyun debuted and became a top idol group that their relationship eased slightly, but they only contacted each other once or twice a year.

Because of this incident, Xu Ji began to pay attention to SN Entertainment, and using her methods, she quickly made contact with Han Eun-jung in the secretary's office. Then she learned about Han Dae-jik, Choo Ja-seon, and others. The more Xu Ji learned about these people, the more confused she became: in her eyes, Lee Seok was not only the company boss, but also a talented writer, and even an actor and singer...

Of course, the treatment of her own man and her adopted daughter Xu Xian was different. Although Li Shuo was an actor, it was just a side job for him. Xu Ji was overwhelmed with emotion and could not contain herself when she thought that Li Shuo would actually stand on the stage.
Just then, she learned from SN Entertainment that Choo Ja-seon was going back to China for promotional activities, so Seo Ji naturally followed her immediately!

As the group exited the airport, two Mercedes-Benz vans quickly pulled up to pick them up. Xu Ji looked at Qiu Cixian and her group, who were some distance away, and asked, "Hey, which car are you going to take...?"

After giving the instructions, Xu Ji got into the car with Han Enqing. Once the Mercedes-Benz van started moving, Xu Ji asked again:
"What a kindness! Where is Qiu Cixian's car headed?"

"Of course, it's a hotel."

"What I mean is, she couldn't have met Li Shuo before me, could she?"

"Forehead"

Han Enqing was somewhat speechless, mainly because she didn't know how to explain to Xu Ji: Instead of worrying about this, you should worry about whether you can see Li Shuo this time you came here!

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Xu Ji asked, raising an eyebrow at her troubled expression.

Han Enqing shook her head and smiled wryly. She glanced at the driver in the front row and whispered to Xu Ji in South Korean, "President Xu, you may have a very high status in our country, and you are also very much liked by the Boss. But this is the Boss's homeland. I'm sure you can guess that the Boss has women here, and more than one..."

"The reason I stopped you from coming to China was simply to avoid putting you in an awkward or embarrassing situation... Qiu Cixian is here because she really needs to work. According to our secretariat's estimates, she probably won't have a chance to meet the Boss until all her work is finished..."

The implication is: Qiu Cixian is having such a hard time seeing Li Shuo, Chairman Xu, you may be a little better off, but how much better off can you be?
Xu Ji blinked and nodded with a smile: "Okay, thank you for your kindness. Actually, I was already mentally prepared for this a long time ago."

After all, Lee Seok is a young chaebol heir. Just look at the chaebols in South Korea to see how rare and precious this kind of man is. Seo Hee was naturally well prepared. In fact, she rushed to China because she wanted to hold onto this extremely rare creature!

"You still don't understand what I mean... But never mind, there's too much I can't tell you, and many things you'll only understand after you experience them for yourself..."

As they were talking, the Mercedes-Benz van had already arrived at the hotel. After arranging for Xu Ji, Han Enqing rushed to the Shuoguo Manor overnight. As the head of the South Korean secretariat, she was qualified to see Li Shuo immediately. Moreover, her decision to let Xu Ji come over was a serious dereliction of duty, and she naturally had to report it to Li Shuo in person and even accept punishment!
Nevertheless, Han Enqing arrived at the manor at 3 a.m., and even Li Shuo, whose daily routine was chaotic, was already asleep by then...

Yuan Ke and Zhang Yuyan received her, and then held an internal meeting in the study, which was a secretarial office.

The head of the secretarial office, Wei Shuting, appeared on the LCD screen and questioned:
"Enqing, what's wrong with you? You can't even control an old woman in your jurisdiction?"

Han Enqing said meekly, "President Wei, as you know, South Korea is a special case. It's a foreign country, and our Shuoguo's influence there is relatively small. How could the secretariat possibly control someone with influence like Xu Ji?"

“We understand your difficulties, but as for the favor, our secretariat doesn’t just rely on connections, power, or clever tactics to get things done…”

On another LCD screen, Feng Linlin commented: "Because we are the Boss's secretaries, when dealing with the Boss's women, nominally they are the mistresses, but in reality, most of them have to act according to our wishes, especially some women who have no material foundation and are completely kept by the Boss. They dare not offend the secretariat at all..."

Hearing this, Wei Shuting added at the opportune moment: "Of course we won't use this convenience to blackmail or attack the housewives, but we can use it to complete our work more easily!"

Zhang Yuyan nodded and said, "That's right. In my opinion, if we could understand Xu Ji's temperament earlier and use a line like 'You don't want the Boss to know that you are such an impatient woman' to subtly control her, it might have a surprising effect!"

Han Enqing was dumbfounded as she listened to the senior staff members in the secretariat. She had been temporarily promoted to head of the South Korean secretariat because she was South Korean. Although she had received online training from Wei Shuting, she still lacked work experience. Now, after being taught by her seniors, she suddenly realized how the secretariat works!
Next, something even more "horrible" shattered Han Enqing's worldview.

For example, Wei Shuting said: "The boss actually has quite a few women in South Korea. You can totally stir up their sense of competition. Remember, the secretary's office only serves the boss. Do whatever makes the boss comfortable. Sometimes, competition among women is a good thing!"

Feng Linlin smiled and said, "It's competition, not conflict. We need to maintain their competitive spirit, but not escalate it. Only under these circumstances will we be more 'valuable' to these matriarchs. Take South Korea as an example. In the information I've seen, Seo Hee's power isn't the greatest. There's also the three-star Crown Princess Lim Se-ah and Princess SK. If you can sow discord among them and then cleverly utilize these women's power, I believe the Shuoguo Secretariat will become a very powerful organization in South Korea!"

Zhang Yuyan, who was skilled at serving Li Shuo, patted her ample chest and sighed with lingering fear:
"Wow, you guys are really... We're all women, why resort to such drastic methods..."

Yuan Ke pursed her lips and said, "Precisely because we're all women, we all understand each other..."

These words abruptly cooled the previously enthusiastic atmosphere. Wei Shuting gave Han Enqing a few more brief instructions before ending the early morning online meeting. Han Enqing pondered Yuan Ke's final words, finding them deeply meaningful: If the fishpond outside the secretary's office could be manipulated and exploited by the secretary's office, what about inside? Everyone's infatuation and admiration for Li Shuo were considerable, and precisely because of this, they were likely more susceptible to emotional influence.

For example, what would the other people in the secretary's office do if Li Shuo got tired of someone?
Thinking of this, Han Enqing felt a chill run down her spine, realizing that the secretary's office was even more competitive than the fishpond that Li Shuo kept outside!
That night, Han Enqing didn't sleep well. Firstly, she felt immense pressure on her shoulders, and secondly, she needed to adjust to the time difference and her sleep schedule. South Korea and China are only one time zone apart, which is practically the same, but Han Enqing arrived in China in the early hours of the morning, which meant she was working day and night in reverse.

However, it was precisely because of this that she was able to appear before Li Shuo precisely at 6 a.m.

The man, who had spent the night working on the big star, was jogging around the flowerbeds of the Shuoguo Manor when he saw her and exclaimed in surprise, "A favor? You've arrived so quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Han Enqing knew that although the Boss knew that Xu Ji was coming, he probably hadn't paid any attention to it at all...

"Yes, I brought Miss Qiu Cixian back, and also, President Xu Ji..."

"Let's talk after I finish my run. Organize your thoughts first."

Li Shuo waved his hand and continued running, mainly because he hadn't figured out how to deal with Xu Ji and Han Enqing.

Han Enqing, the little secretary, made a mistake and should definitely be punished. However, this oversight was actually a shortcoming brought about by the rapid development of the secretariat. It wasn't a big deal. Punishing her too harshly wouldn't be good, but not punishing her at all wouldn't work either. After all, the secretariat is a collective, an organization. Any organization with many people must have clear rewards and punishments!
While Li Shuo was thinking, Han Enqing jogged alongside him. Although she was young, she came from a poor family and had been traveling back and forth between the two countries with Han Dazhi since graduating from high school. Therefore, she knew what kind of attitude to show when she made a mistake, and she also had the physical strength to show that attitude.

Li Shuo hadn't paid much attention at first, but when he saw that Han Enqing could keep up with his jogging pace, he turned around and praised her, saying, "Very good."

The background is the rising sun of early morning, the sweat of the male god as he runs, and his very prominent muscles revealed by his tight-fitting clothes, ending with his radiant smile and magnetic voice of praise...

At that moment, Han Enqing blushed and immediately stopped, clamping her legs together.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

As a result, Li Shuo stopped when he saw this.

"No, it's just that you look... well... well... mainly because I haven't seen you in so long..."

Han Enqing was hesitant and awkward, but Li Shuo immediately noticed her expression. He, who had been struggling to find a "punishment method," suddenly had a flash of inspiration and immediately frowned, scolding her:
"Look at the state of the South Korean secretariat head! Speak your mind, say what you want to say to my face. Are you some nagging little girl just experiencing first love?"

"no!"

Han Enqing quickly shouted, "Boss, I like you, I long for you so much..."

"Yes, but you made a mistake by letting Xu Ji slip through this time!"

Li Shuo glanced around and pointed to the nearby lawn, saying, "Now, kneel down and make amends for your mistake..."

Han Enqing instinctively knelt down, raising her head blankly. Only when she saw Li Shuo approaching did she realize what was happening. At that moment, she almost burst out laughing, then quickly held her breath and leaned forward with her small mouth...

The punishment inflicted on Han Enqing on the lawn was just an appetizer. After Li Shuo finished his morning exercise and washed up, he returned to the small room reserved for his secretaries in a side hall of the manor. Looking at Yuan Ke and Han Enqing beside him, he instructed them:

"Han Enqing, you have seriously neglected your duties this time. I have decided to temporarily relieve you of your post as head of the South Korean Secretariat and demote you to deputy head of the Secretariat. Go back to South Korea and straighten out the relations there. Otherwise, you will not be allowed to set foot in China again!"

"Yes"

This punishment was actually quite severe. After all, being unable to set foot in China meant that she would never see Li Shuo again. For Han Enqing, who had just begun to experience love and whose heart was completely devoted to Li Shuo, this was an immense torment.

"Before leaving, work with Yuan Ke to make sure Xu Ji is settled in! Now that she's here, I won't force her to leave, but I don't have much time. I can only visit her once or twice occasionally. The rest of the time, you all manage her well, understand?"

"Yes"

"Alright, Enqing, go and rest. Yuan Ke, stay here..."

Actually, Li Shuo was quite happy about Xu Ji's arrival, after all, Xu Ji had Jin Yan'er and Xu Xian behind her, but he couldn't break the rules in front of the other fish.

Similarly, Li Shuo did not mention any plans. Although his personal matter was considered over when Mango TV sent people to negotiate, the online war of words caused by "X" continued. Even after Han Er and Guo Laosi joined the battle and Wei Ni released the song "Unforgivable", the popularity of "X" increased strangely!

Meanwhile, with the arrival of Choo Ja-seon, the promotional campaign for "The Temptation of Returning Home" will also begin, and there's a whole lot of stuff to do next...

Where is Qiu Cixian?

"Boss, she's at the hotel."

"What hotel to stay at? Remember, she's the face of Shuoguo Culture for the next 1-2 years. Bring her to Shuoguo Manor!"

"Yes" (End of Chapter)
