Just started working and the company is full of ex-girlfriends?

"Why do you ask?"

Shen Huai tightened his fingers around the wine glass slightly, avoiding Lin Yeman's gaze.

He vaguely felt that Lin Yeman's next words might subvert his cognition.

"Because Yang Lan and I have completely broken up."

Lin Yeman tilted her head back and drank the red wine in the glass. The scarlet liquid made her lips look even more charming and also added a bit of cold and resolute temperament to her.

Shen Huai raised his head suddenly, looking at Lin Yeman in disbelief, and the wine glass in his hand almost slipped, "How... is this possible?"

Yang Lan is Lin Yeman's biological sister.

Even if what Yang Lan did at the party was indeed a bit out of line, but a breakup?
Isn't it?

Would sisters also go to this step?

"Nothing is impossible."

Lin Yeman laughed at herself with a hint of bitterness in her tone, "Although we are sisters, our personalities are completely opposite. I like to stand under the spotlight and enjoy the feeling of being the center of attention, while she prefers to be behind the scenes, strategizing and controlling the overall situation."

Lin Yeman paused and looked at Shen Huai sharply, "Shen Huai, you should know that Yang Lan has always wanted to build Xingyao Entertainment into the largest entertainment empire in the country, but I don't agree with her approach."

"Why?" Shen Huai asked puzzledly.

"Because she is too radical, she will do anything to achieve her goal, even at the expense of the interests of the company and the artists."

There was a hint of anger in Lin Yeman's tone. "I don't want to see Xingyao Entertainment destroyed in her hands, so I chose to leave and create my own world."

"So, that's why you chose to come to me?" Shen Huai suddenly realized.

"That's right. I need a platform, a platform that allows me to display my talents and realize my dreams." Lin Yeman's eyes sparkled with confidence. "And your company is the best choice."

Shen Huai was silent, he didn't know what to say.

Lin Yeman's words undoubtedly threw a huge rock into the calm lake of his heart, causing a thousand waves.

He always thought that Lin Yeman came to his company just to help him through the difficulties, but he didn't expect that she actually had greater ambitions.

"Have you ever thought about this: if one day, the conflict of interest between Xingyao Entertainment and my company becomes greater and greater, what will your Yang family choose?"

Shen Huai raised his head, looked directly into Lin Yeman's eyes, and asked word by word.

Lin Yeman smiled, with a hint of amusement in her smile, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question? Shen Huai, if that day really comes, which side will you stand on?"

"I……"

Shen Huai clenched the wine glass in his hand, but the cold touch could not cool his confused thoughts.

"I don't know. I just feel that this all happened too suddenly. Your appearance and your help make me feel uneasy."

Lin Yeman chuckled, and her eyes seemed to contain the stars and the sea.

"Uneasy? Are you uneasy because you can't see through me?"

She put down the wine glass in her hand, leaned forward slightly, and stared at Shen Huai with burning eyes, "Are you afraid that I have other intentions?"

Shen Huai avoided Lin Yeman's gaze and whispered, "I just...want to know, what exactly do you want to do?"

Lin Yeman did not continue to ask questions. She just picked up the wine glass and gently shook the liquid in the glass.

Under the dim light, the scarlet wine looked like some kind of dangerous signal.

"Shen Huai,"

Her tone was calm, but it carried an unquestionable strength. "Now, you just need to remember that we are in the same boat. That's enough."

Shen Huai was silent. Lin Yeman's words were like a fog, making it even harder for him to see the road ahead. He finally raised his glass and clinked it with Lin Yeman, "Happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

After a pause, Shen Huai added softly: "Of course I am on your side." Lin Yeman's eyes were stunned for a moment.

Then her smile widened.

She stood up drunkenly, walked to Shen Huai, bent down, and whispered in his ear: "Remember what you said today, Shen Huai, I will take it seriously."

After saying that, she leaned over and kissed Shen Huai gently, then turned and left the bar.

Shen Huai was left sitting there in astonishment, pondering the meaning of her last words.

Outside the window, the night deepens and the neon lights flicker, making the city even more blurry.

Shen Huai looked at the direction where Lin Yeman left, feeling mixed emotions.

……

The next day, Shen Huai came to the company early, but found that Lin Yeman was there earlier than him.

She was wearing a smart business suit, sitting at her desk, flipping through a document. The early morning sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto her, giving her a faint halo.

"Good morning." Shen Huai walked to the desk and greeted Lin Yeman with a smile.

Lin Yeman raised her head and saw Shen Huai, with a faint smile on her lips, "Morning, Mr. Shen, did you sleep well last night?"

"not bad."

Shen Huai smiled and sat down opposite Lin Yeman. "What about you? Why are you here so early?"

"There are some things to deal with." Lin Yeman replied calmly, and then handed the document in her hand to Shen Huai, "This is the promotion plan for the launch of the virtual idol that I rushed out overnight. Please see if there is anything that needs to be modified."

Shen Huai took the document and read it carefully.

The content of the business plan is very detailed, with careful planning from the virtual idol's personality and positioning to the promotion and marketing plan.

"How is it? Is there any problem?" Lin Yeman asked when she saw Shen Huai remained silent.

Shen Huai raised his head and looked at Lin Yeman with burning eyes, "Perfect."

Hearing Shen Huai's words, Lin Yeman's lips curled up into a faint smile.

"Is Mr. Shen starting to use encouragement-based education?" Lin Yeman joked.

"Not really," Shen Huai looked seriously at the confident and ambitious woman in front of him, "I'm just stating a fact, that is, you are really perfect."

Lin Yeman's heart skipped a beat.

A strange feeling spread in her heart.

She turned her face away, avoiding Shen Huai's gaze.
Seeing Lin Yeman showing a rare shy expression, Shen Huai felt an inexplicable restlessness in his heart.

He stood up suddenly, walked to Lin Yeman, and hugged her in his arms.

"Lin Yeman,"

Shen Huai's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of irrepressible emotion, "You ran away like this after kissing me yesterday, isn't that a bit too much?"

Lin Yeman's body visibly stiffened for a moment. "Didn't I want you to calm down alone yesterday?"

Her cheeks turned red and she spoke guiltily.

As a result, the next second, Shen Huai hugged her even tighter.

"Shen Huai, you..."

Before Lin Yeman could finish her words, Shen Huai sealed her lips.

"Let's continue now..."
