3pm.

Zhuge Dasheng's assistant secretary couldn't get through to the boss by phone.

I went downstairs and found Gu Yifan's office, and sure enough, I found my boss there.

"what's up?"

Zhuge Dasheng was surprised that his assistant would come looking for him, and he frowned as he asked.

"It's that client of ours, surnamed Chu. His case is a bit complicated." The female assistant quickly explained the reason and handed over the documents in her hand.

Zhuge Dasheng took it and began to read it.

The female assistant remained silent, her eyes secretly observing her boss.

Yes, she still looks as elegant and aloof as ever.

But something feels off.
"Alright, I'll go up in a bit." Zhuge Dasheng glanced at it briefly, then closed the file and handed it back to his female assistant.

"Have Attorney Wang and Attorney Liu wait for me in the conference room. I need to hold a short meeting and talk to them about this case."

"Yes, boss." The young assistant quickly took the file, then paused, tilted his head back, and sniffed the air.

"What's wrong?" Zhuge Dasheng asked curiously.

"No, it's nothing, it's just that the perfume you're wearing today smells really nice," the assistant said shyly.

Zhuge Dasheng was taken aback, turned his head to sniff it as well, his ears gradually turning red, and he lowered his head to cover it up, saying, "Really? Then I'll recommend someone to you later. Okay, go ahead."

"Yes, then I'll go and inform Attorney Wang and the others first."

The assistant nodded, his gaze inadvertently falling on his boss's fair forehead, which seemed to be covered with a light sheen of sweat.

Are the benefits at the company downstairs really that good? It's almost April, and they're still running the air conditioning.

The young assistant was a little envious.

She had heard before that the animation and film company downstairs offered excellent benefits and had a great company atmosphere.
Furthermore, the company's closing time is the earliest in this upscale office building.

It's not that my boss treats me badly.

She's usually too serious; I always feel a little nervous and cautious when talking to her.
"Well, let's go."

Zhuge Dasheng watched his assistant leave before letting out a small sigh of relief, though his heart was still pounding.

"Peng!"

Gu Yifan sat behind his desk, watching Zhuge Dasheng hurriedly close the office door, and asked with a smile.

"What's wrong? Got work?"

Zhuge Dasheng turned around and gave Gu Yifan a reproachful look with her beautiful eyes.

Still laughing? It's all your fault.

She rarely wears perfume.

So it goes without saying who the pleasant scent that the assistant smelled came from.

"Xiao Hui asked me which perfume I was wearing. Tell me, and I'll tell her later."

Zhuge Dasheng walked over and said with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Gu Yifan opened his arms at the right moment, and Zhuge Dasheng hesitated for a moment, then softened.

Soft and fragrant.

"Perfume? This isn't perfume. I have a natural fragrance, just like Yang Guo," Gu Yifan whispered in his wife's ear.

This amused Zhuge Liang.

"What, do you think you're Yang Guo?"

Zhuge Dasheng sat on Gu Yifan's lap, wrapping his arms around Gu Yifan's arms.

Nestled in the arms of this man who was more than ten years younger than her, she greedily took a deep breath.

How could she find it so hard to refuse this young man?

She's not usually like this.

"You scared me just now."

The two were in the lounge when there was a knock on the door. Gu Yifan got dressed first and went to open the door, buying Zhuge Dasheng some time.
"Then the lady is Little Dragon Girl, so what?" Gu Yifan comforted Zhuge Dasheng. "We're also discussing cooperation."

"spit"

Zhuge Dasheng stared at Gu Yifan, who was spouting nonsense, with a half-smile.

Don't you know whether or not cooperation has been discussed?

She's been coming to see Gu Yifan far too frequently lately.

She didn't want to either.

But sitting upstairs, Zhuge Liang's mind would always wander unconsciously.

I just wanted to come down and wander around.

Even just meeting and talking to a younger man would be nice.

"Alright, I'm going up now."

Zhuge Dasheng hardened his heart, pushed Gu Yifan away, stood up and straightened his skirt.

Gu Yifan said leisurely, "You're leaving already?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Dasheng's eyes, beneath her delicate eyelashes, flashed with shyness. She had misunderstood Gu Yifan and lowered her head to speak softly.

"I still have work to do, stop messing around."

Gu Yifan rolled his eyes.

"I mean, not a goodbye kiss?"

Come when you want and leave when you want.

What did they take him for?

Beijing-style roast duck?
Seeing that Zhuge Dasheng was still standing still, Gu Yifan tilted his head.

"You're such a grown-up now."

Zhuge Dasheng's heart softened, and he leaned down to kiss Gu Yifan on the cheek, blushing as he spoke.

"In my heart, Madam will always be young," Gu Yifan said with a satisfied smile.

"loquacious."

Zhuge Dasheng looked at Gu Yifan with a hint of lingering affection and reluctance.

Finally, she made a bold decision and whispered a few words in Gu Yifan's ear.

"Huh?" Gu Yifan was taken aback. "I'm going to your place the day after tomorrow?"

"What, you're not happy?" Zhuge Dasheng's cheeks flushed slightly, and he didn't dare to look at Gu Yifan's expression as he asked.

It's easy to be discovered at the company, so the impact needs to be considered.

But if you go to her place, there are only two people there.

Wouldn't that mean we could make the world as dark as we wanted?

Zhuge Dasheng planned to make amends to this young man properly later, and also treat himself.
"Of course I'd be happy to, but what about Dali's side?" Gu Yifan hesitated.

“I plan to let her go to her maternal grandmother’s house for a day,” Zhuge Dasheng said softly.

Gu Yifan remained silent.

If he remembers correctly, Zhuge Dasheng's relationship with her parents was quite bad; she never even went back to see them for the New Year.

This is also because Zhuge Liang was unwilling to get married and chose IVF, which resulted in the birth of Dali.

This further strained her relationship with her family.

How come we suddenly got in touch again?

Seeing Gu Yifan's confusion, Zhuge Dasheng sighed and said quietly, "My dad fell down a while ago, and it was quite serious. The doctor said he has Alzheimer's disease."

"Dad fell?" Gu Yifan asked in surprise.

Speaking of which, in the dream world, he married Zhuge Dasheng, who was also his father-in-law.

Zhuge Dasheng blushed and said in a barely audible voice, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by 'our dad'?"

Gu Yifan, speaking with a straight face, put his arm around Zhuge Dasheng's soft waist and said, "No matter what, since I said I would take care of you for the rest of my life, your parents are also my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Where did I go wrong?"

Zhuge Dasheng bit his lip, hummed softly, his eyes filled with tenderness, raised his hand to stroke Gu Yifan's cheek, and said.

"So I went there. It can be considered that we've put an end to our past grievances?"

"I see. How about I find some time to go and take a look?" Gu Yifan said after thinking for a moment.

He felt a little guilty and grasped Zhuge Dasheng's hand in return, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't know about such a big thing."

"You're so busy, I deliberately didn't tell you. As for going to see him, there's no need for now, let's wait a bit longer." Zhuge Dasheng smiled sweetly.

She didn't expect to be married to the man she loved again in this life.

She didn't care about that title.

As long as Gu Yifan has her in his heart, that's enough. Zhuge Dasheng admitted that she was being a little too sentimental at the moment, but she didn't regret it.

Zhuge Liang is about to leave.

If she didn't leave soon, she felt she wouldn't be able to escape and would have to abandon her zodiac pigeon again.

Before leaving.

Gu Yifan called out to Zhuge Dasheng again.

He took out a gift he had prepared long ago from the drawer, put his hands behind his back, and walked to Zhuge Dasheng's side.

"Madam, close your eyes, I have a surprise for you."

"What surprise?" Although Zhuge Dasheng was puzzled, he still closed his eyes as instructed.

Two soft popping sounds were heard, and a faint fragrance wafted into the air.

"This is... perfume?"

Zhuge Dasheng opened his eyes in surprise and found that Gu Yifan was holding a bottle of perfume.

"How is it? Does the taste seem familiar?"

Hearing Gu Yifan's question, Zhuge Dasheng forgot his surprise and took a sniff. He could smell a faint fragrance of osmanthus and cherry blossoms.

This is not an expensive gift.

Gu Yifan explained, "I know you don't really like wearing perfume, but I think this perfume suits you perfectly. It's elegant, gentle, dignified, and beautiful, so I wanted to give it to you."

Being with Gu Yifan always brings little surprises from time to time.

Zhuge Dasheng accepted the perfume from Gu Yifan with a hint of surprise on her face. It wasn't just the gift from Gu Yifan that surprised her, but also the sentiment behind it.

She really liked the taste.

But the words that were on the tip of my tongue turned out to be...

"You shouldn't buy these things anymore. Do you think I'm a little girl? I'm a grown woman."

That being said.

Gu Yifan happened to see the joy that unconsciously showed on Zhuge Dasheng's face when he turned around.

She held the perfume bottle tightly in her slender hand, not saying anything, but she was overjoyed inside.

Women are all creatures of words and deeds.

At the elevator.

Zhuge Liang wondered if he had spoiled the mood with his words and shouldn't have used a lecturing tone.

The elevator doors opened at that moment.

"Great Sage Sister?"

Coincidentally, Cyndi walked in from the elevator.

"Xinling?" Zhuge Dasheng subconsciously covered his hand holding the perfume bottle.

"Hmm, it's been a long time, Sister Dasheng. You've come to see my brother?" Xinling said with a smile.

"Well, let's talk about some work with Yifan," Zhuge Dasheng said with a slight smile.

After that dinner on New Year's Eve, Zhuge Dasheng had already realized that Xinling had fallen deeply in love with Gu Yifan.

It would be a lie to say I'm not jealous.

However, Zhuge Dasheng felt great sympathy for Xinling's kind nature and pitiful background.

She also has great strength and her own career.

But Xinling only has Yifan left; he is her whole world.

Therefore, Zhuge Dasheng felt somewhat indebted to Xinling and silently accepted this younger sister.

"I see." Xinling stepped aside a little and said softly, "Brother has been too busy lately, so I'll have to trouble Sister Dasheng to help him out a bit."

Zhuge Dasheng nodded, "Definitely."

But as she stepped into the elevator, Xinling seemed to smell something, "Big Sister Sheng, are you wearing perfume?"

"Ok?"

Zhuge Dasheng hid the hand holding the perfume bottle behind his back again, "I did spray some."

"It smells so good~" Xinling chuckled, a little embarrassed, "I also want to buy a bottle of perfume, but I'm worried that you won't like the smell."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Dasheng's heart skipped a beat. "Then let's go shopping together in a few days. I'll help you check out the options then?"

"That would be wonderful!" Xinling readily agreed with delight.

"It's settled then, I'll contact you in a few days."

The elevator doors are closed.

Zhuge Dasheng then noticed that she was actually sweating a little.

Mingming wasn't nervous at all when facing the judge in court.

It's because of Cyndi Wang.

Too
Xinling is so young and beautiful, and she's so close to Gu Yifan. She's getting old and losing her looks; she must be worried about Xinling finding out.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang's originally good mood became somewhat unhappy.

Looking at my reflection in the elevator mirror.

Zhuge Dasheng gently stroked his smooth cheek, seemingly lost in thought.

Shouldn't she go to a beauty salon and get some proper skincare?

the other side.

Cyndi's enthusiastic smile faded slightly after the elevator doors closed.

The perfume Zhuge Dasheng was wearing just now also had a scent that Xinling was very familiar with.

Then, thinking back to when Zhuge Dasheng had just come out of Gu Yifan's place, she, who never wears perfume, was wearing it.

Xinling sighed, her chubby little face scrunched up.

However, she quickly rallied.

"Xinling, Xinling, what are you thinking about?" Xinling patted her cheek. "As long as you're happy, that's all that matters, right? Why are you being so jealous?"

With that, Xinling let out a long breath and walked towards Gu Yifan's office.

"We need to build a good relationship with Sister Dasheng so that we can help Brother Yifan when he needs it."

When Xinling knocked on Gu Yifan's office door.

Mingliang and his senior brother happened to be there too, and the two were reporting to Gu Yifan.

Xinling walked in without disturbing the three of them.

Instead, she walked to the water dispenser and started making tea for Gu Yifan.

"The viewership of Under One Person Season 2 is rapidly increasing across major websites. On Wednesday, Yangyu.com contacted our company to discuss securing exclusive online streaming rights for Season 3 and Season 4. The first batch of merchandise has already begun to generate revenue."

The eldest brother introduced himself fluently and quickly.

After starting work, he gradually overcame his habit of speaking slowly.

The main reason was that he became the project leader, and was entrusted with important responsibilities by Gu Yifan, which finally gave the senior brother, who was naturally weak in presence, a sense of presence for the first time.

Besides, who would turn down money?

Previously, Du Junfei would fly around looking for collaboration opportunities, but since the first season of Under One Person became a hit, things have gradually changed, and many people have come to him seeking collaboration.

He's riding high right now, and he's recently started dating a new girlfriend, a female college student who loves comics.

After listening to Du Jun's request for instructions, Gu Yifan did not make a decision immediately, but turned to look at Li Mingliang.

"Mingliang, what do you think?"

“I think there’s no problem in principle. Exclusive licensing pays more, but we can’t lose money on fees,” Li Mingliang said immediately.

Du Jun was riding high, and so was Li Mingliang.

Previously, she felt that her position was somewhat of a figurehead. Although she was supposed to be in charge of coordination, the person in charge of the project team was not responsible to her, but listened to Gu Yifan, the boss.

That put her in a very awkward position.

He was more like a handyman, which made Mingliang worry that he was just someone Gu Yifan used to keep the company's employees in line, and that he would be removed soon after Gu Yifan took control of the company.

But as it turned out, Gu Yifan did not intend to fire her; on the contrary, she was handling more and more work collaborations every day.

Gu Yifan, on the contrary, became a hands-off manager.

The fact that the company's productions, Under One Person and Douluo Continent, received good reviews immediately gave Li Mingliang confidence.

People are happy when they are happy.

Li Mingliang was filled with enthusiasm.

“Well, Mingliang is right. But I’m actually thinking about starting my own video website. Is that feasible?”

Li Mingliang and Du Jun were taken aback.

"My own video website?" (End of Chapter)
