"Damn it!" The man's low, hoarse curse echoed in the water.

But it was yet another woman trying to seduce him.

He's lived for almost thirty years, and thousands upon thousands of women have tried to seduce him; he's long since become immune to them.

But this time, he, who was usually calm and composed, actually lost control of his body.

It must be because she has a face that looks like Wen Qinghe.

Yes, it was because of her.

Thinking about this, the man finally felt relieved.

……

When Pei Yichen walked out of the living room in a suit and tie, he caught a glimpse of a woman sitting at the dining table with her back to him, intently looking at her laptop, her fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard.

The man spoke coldly, "I don't want what happened just now to happen again."

"Okay, I understand."

Jiang Shutong's attention was entirely focused on the project proposal, and she had no time to pay attention to him.

Pei Yichen sensed the woman's perfunctory tone, his handsome face tightened for a moment, and the atmosphere around him seemed to drop.

The woman was still wearing the same cotton pajamas, with the top button fastened, and it appeared she was already wearing underwear.

His gaze then moved up to the face that looked so much like Wen Qinghe, and the tightness in his chest instantly dissipated a little.

Yes, looking at this face, even the biggest anger dissipates.

He couldn't get angry at that face.

The woman held a mouse in her right hand, frowning as she pondered something. Her thick, curled eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow under her eyelids. Her nose was straight and delicate, and she gently bit her rosy lips. Her focused expression revealed a touch of naivety.

She looks just like Wen Qinghe when she was a child.

The coldness between the man's brows faded, and his eyes softened.

Six-year-old Wen Qinghe had just started elementary school, and when faced with homework she couldn't do, she would furrow her brows and think in the same way.

If she really couldn't solve it, she would cling to him innocently, blinking her clear, bright eyes and saying in a cute, childish voice, "Brother Yichen, can you teach me how to do this problem? I'll give you all my candy."

He was taciturn. "I don't like sweets."

The little girl tilted her head and looked at him with a puzzled expression, seemingly not understanding why someone would dislike candy.

She rested her chin on her chubby little hands, her face scrunched up in a frown, looking somewhat troubled. "Brother Yichen, what do you like to eat?"

"I don't have many favorite foods, but I do need a little follower."

The little girl cheered and raised her hand, "I, I can be Brother Yichen's little follower!"

The sudden ringing of the doorbell brought the man back to his senses.

It should be Li Kai.

After all, it's time to leave for work.

But when the door opened, a deliveryman in a yellow uniform was standing outside.

The deliveryman shoved the breakfast into his hands without saying a word and then hurried away.

As soon as Pei Yichen closed the door, Jiang Shutong skipped over, took the bag of takeout from his hand, and said with a smile, "This is the takeout I ordered."

She placed the takeout on the table, then opened the rice noodle roll and soy milk package and started eating.

She glanced up at the man. "Sorry, I didn't call on you. Otherwise, I was afraid you'd become so narcissistic that you'd think I liked you."

Pei Yichen: ...

What an unreasonable woman.

He stormed off in anger.

Seeing how angry the man was, Jiang Shutong's gloom from early morning finally dissipated, and she felt much better.

After a delicious breakfast, I'm ready to start my day full of energy.

When I was in a better mood, even making project proposals became easier.

Boyu Group.

Pei Yichen and Li Kai took the president's private elevator directly to the top-floor office.

Pei Yichen glanced at his watch, his aura distant and cold. "Notify the project team to hold a meeting immediately. Also, go to my office and bring me this week's project materials."

After saying that, he walked straight into the conference room.

Li Kai responded, first going to the project department to issue instructions, and then going to the president's office to retrieve the documents.

As soon as I opened the door, I was hugged tightly. "Brother Yichen, surprise!"

Li Kai blushed instantly and tried to push her away, but the woman in front of him held him tightly and wouldn't let go no matter how hard he tried.

Wen Luoyao leaned against the man's chest, who was dressed in a suit. "Brother Yichen, I'm starting work in the secretariat today. I deliberately didn't tell you so I could give you a big surprise!"

Unable to push her away, Li Kai could only say, "Um, Miss Wen, please let go of me first..."

Upon hearing that voice, Wen Luoyao abruptly pushed him away, exclaiming incredulously, "Assistant Li? It's you?"

Li Kai explained somewhat awkwardly, "President Pei went to a meeting, so I came to get the documents."

Wen Luoyao hurriedly straightened her clothes and hair, coughed lightly, and acted as if nothing had happened. "Then don't tell Brother Yichen that I'm working here. I want to give him a surprise."

"...Yes, Miss Wen."

Li Kai felt like the sky had fallen. He had only been busy arranging a new home for the president these past few days, and how did the secretariat end up hiring this little devil?

The CEO will definitely be furious when he finds out, and he'll vent his anger on him.

After taking the documents, Li Kai quickly rushed to the conference room.

As soon as he entered, he went to Pei Yichen's side and whispered to him about Wen Luoyao's infiltration of the secretariat.

As expected, the man's face quickly turned icy.

His first thought was to kick her out immediately, but Wen Luoyao had come in through a formal interview process.

Even for the sake of the Wen family, he couldn't just fire her.

Throughout the rest of the meeting, Pei Yichen had a gloomy face and exuded a chilling aura.

After the meeting, when he returned to the door of the president's office, Pei Yichen stopped and turned to signal Li Kai to go in first.

Li Kai had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, turning the doorknob to open the door.

I hope Miss Wen won't make the same mistake again.

But then, he was hugged again!

However, this time the woman in his arms learned to look up first. When she saw that it was Li Kai again, her beautiful eyes instantly filled with anger, and she slapped him across the face. "Li Kai, you've really gone too far! Why is it you again! I already said I wanted to give Brother Yichen a surprise, are you deliberately trying to take advantage of me?!"

"This is a shock, not a surprise," came Pei Yichen's cold voice from behind.

Accompanied by the sound, Pei Yichen strode in.

He was dressed in a dark suit, with a tall and straight figure and a cold and aloof demeanor. Every move he made exuded an air of nobility and superiority.

Wen Luoyao was so angry that she kicked Li Kai hard.

Li Kai hissed in pain, feeling wronged, but dared not say anything.

Wen Luoyao immediately put on a smiling face and rushed up to Pei Yichen. "Brother Yichen, I know you're busy with work and don't even have time to have a meal with me, so I've decided to work at Boyu from now on. That way, I can see you every day."

Pei Yichen remained aloof and distant. "Boyu Group is a workplace, not a place for you, Miss Wen, to have fun."

Wen Luoyao was used to his cold attitude. She confidently assured him, "Brother Yichen, I'm not here to play around. I'm here to work seriously. Don't worry, I will definitely become your capable assistant and help you manage the company well."

"Miss Wen, I'm married."
