The secretary's heart isn't with the ox or horse, but with the fox! And it's quite obvious that once you enter Yujian, she's still trying to trip you up! — However, the fact that she wasn't directly appointed is a much gentler approach than at the beginning.

Although Ryūmi Kōma was looking down at the table, he would occasionally glance at Ichiyō Chiyo with intense eyes, which led Shiraishi Sawa to this conclusion.

"Sorry, we don't need it. If there's nothing else, you can leave now, Ryūmi-kun." Shiraishi Sawah casually said, stepping in front of Ichiyō Chiyō and blocking their view.

Thinking it was something serious, Chiyo raised an eyebrow, patted Shiraishi Sawa on the back—indicating that the matter was left to him—and walked over to Kuramochi Sakura to continue watching the video.

"Shiraishi-kun? Excuse me, I meant Ichiri-san."

“I know,” Shiraishi Sawa sat down, pretending to hold a pen and paper, and looked up at him calmly. “Where’s your resume?”

"Resume...? I... didn't bring it, but I can verbally describe my resume. As for me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shiraishi Sawa interrupted him by extending a hand. He clearly saw that Ryūmi Shouma had come in empty-handed, so he naturally knew that there was no resume.

"That's why I rejected you without hesitation. Job seekers should have the attitude of job seekers."

You want the secretary position, but you come to the interview empty-handed. Based on your approach and your level of seriousness, I'm sorry, but you're not suitable for a position that requires meticulous attention and thorough preparation. So, please leave.

"No, I was asking about Miss Ichirin." Ryūmi Shouma's expression also turned cold. He didn't care about the man in front of him at all and said with a slight impatience.

"Does it make a difference whether you ask her or me? Can't you see this is my desk?" Shiraishi Sawa reached out and flicked the sign with his name on it.

“I am the leader of this project, and if I refuse, the result will be rejection.”

"Ah, Mr. Shiraishi, please wait a moment. I just remembered that I have some documents here that I need you to review. As the person in charge, I'll have to trouble you to give your evaluation."

Kuramochi Sakura received the message, handed her phone to Ichiyo Chiyo, went to her seat, took out a stack of documents, and placed them on Shiraishi Sawa Hide's desk.

"Okay, sure." Shiraishi Zexiu nodded calmly, his expression unchanged.

This isn't about confirming her own words; it's clearly kicking someone when they're down and shifting the blame onto herself! Damn Kuramochi Sakura!

"Ah, Shiraishi-kun, me too..." Chiyo wouldn't pass up such a good opportunity, and with a smile, she brought over the documents and said, "I've 'read through' all of these. You just need to make a decision. It shouldn't take much time. Can you give them to me tomorrow afternoon?"

"No problem." Shiraishi Zexiu said through gritted teeth. It's unrealistic to blame the girl; all the blame should be placed on this little rogue.

“I’m sorry,” said Ryūmi Sūma indifferently, “President Ichiryi is right, as long as Miss Ichiryi agrees, it’s fine.”

“You’re such a nuisance,” Shiraishi Sawah said casually as he picked up a document that Chiyo had handed him and looked at it. “Chiyo, refuse him. He’s interfering with my reading of your document.”

"Okay, sorry, I don't need a secretary. I'll listen to Shiraishi-kun." Chiyo Ichiri watched with a smile as Shiraishi Sawah gave the middle finger to the drawer, finding it amusing, and said.

"Did you hear me? Take your time." Shiraishi Zexiu said without looking up.

"Miss Ichiru, may I treat you to dinner tonight? I've been in this area for a long time and know a really nice little-known Tokyo restaurant."

"Have you asked President Ichiryu what he said about your invitation?" Shiraishi Sawa asked, looking up.

"Huh?" Taken aback by Shiraishi Sawa's question, and unable to reply for a moment, Ryūmi Shouma paused for a moment before saying, "Shouldn't we be asking the president about something like this?"

"Oh, I refuse. I'm busy tonight. I'll treat you next time. I also know a little-known restaurant in Tokyo." Shiraishi Sawa nodded and said, belatedly realizing what was going on.

"I didn't invite you." There was a hint of impatience in Ryūmi Shouma's voice.

The two girls behind him were watching the show, which seemed even more interesting than the videos on their phones, and neither of them made a move to speak.

“But I’m rejecting you.” Shiraishi Zexiu looked up and met his gaze, his eyes filled with contempt and an undisguised impatience.

“Miss Ichiryu, would you please accept my invitation?” Ryūmi Kūma chose to ignore this and looked at Ichiryu Chiyo.

"Why can't you understand what I mean? After working here for so long, is your brain still not developing properly? I'm so glad I didn't accept you as my secretary."

Shiraishi Sawah stood up, completely concealing Ichiro Ichiryu behind his back, his voice filled with extreme doubt and confusion.

"What I mean is, I rejected you on Chiyo's behalf, do you understand, Rumi-kun? If it's your words, I can repeat them a second time."

"Why are you refusing for her? This isn't a work-related matter!" Ryūmi Shouma was already losing his temper, and his voice was unusually loud.

“Yeah, yeah, you have to give me a reason to refuse for me.” Chiyo’s mischievous voice came from behind, as if giving Ryūmi Kuzuma a green signal—she was on his side, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.

She must like me!

What will we name our future children?

How many should we have?

"Chiyo is my girlfriend. Is that reason enough? That's fine. From now on, Rumi-kun, you don't need to bother my Chiyo anymore."

With the girl behind him causing trouble, Shiraishi Sawa immediately raised an eyebrow and spoke.

"Aren't you Ms. Kuramochi's boyfriend?"

"Um, I broke up with Sakura Rei not long ago, and now I'm with Chiyo. Yes, that's right." Shiraishi Sawah nodded, his words resolute.

"When did we break up? Aren't we still a couple?" Kuramochi Sakura said.

"When did you get together with Sakura Rei? How come I didn't know?" Chiyo Ichiru said.

Almost at the same time.

The two girls behind him said with shock and disbelief, "There are always people who think that dramas aren't good enough and need some elements added."

"..."

The main character in the drama was a little overwhelmed, but quickly got into character: "Chiyo, after my divorce from you, I ended up with Sakura Rei by some twist of fate. You know, I was emotionally empty at the time, and I never expected that we would get back together."

"Unbelievable, let's break up," Chiyo said sadly.

“Yes, let’s break up!” Ryūmi Shouma said hastily, even though he was so shocked by the idea of ​​'divorce' that he couldn’t think straight.

"What business is it of yours in our family affairs?" Shiraishi Sawa looked at him coldly. "As you can see, I am now... the boyfriend of both Chiyo and Sakura Rei. Chiyo, you won't break up with her, right?"

"Yes, after all, they have a child, but Sakura Rei..."

“I have a child now,” Kuramochi Sakura quickly said. “He can’t be born without a father.”

"How about the five of us live together?"

"Five people? Where are the extra two?" Chiyo's demeanor suddenly changed, and she asked sharply, her eyes fixed on Shiraishi Sawa.

"The baby in your belly."

“Oh, whatever,” said Chiyo Ichiriki, who clearly lacked maternal love.

"Family matters resolved." In the large office, Shiraishi Sawa's solitary applause was somewhat abrupt. He stood up, a full head taller than Ryūma, and grabbed Ryūma's shoulders, pulling him toward the door.

"That's how things are now. You're neither qualified nor worthy to have anything to do with Chiyo." The playful voice from before vanished, and Shiraishi Sawah spoke coldly in Nagimi Hitoma's ear.

"Who do you think you are, worthy of being held like this?" Ryūmi Shouma, who was being held up, tried to break free from the other's restraint, but found it was futile, so he could only give up struggling and utter harsh words.

He's not stupid; you can tell the rest of the story was staged.

“I am indeed not good enough for her, but Chiyo likes me. If you have eyes, you should be able to see that,” Shiraishi Sawa said truthfully.

Liu Jianshouma looked gloomy and remained silent, because that was the truth.

"What a coincidence, I like her too. I'm going to keep this gigolo." After saying this with a smile, Shiraishi Zexiu pushed him out, and then the loud slam of the door slammed shut echoed throughout the room.

"Fox and Kuramochi-san, could you please arrange two bodyguards at the door? Do you know how much I wanted to yell 'bodyguards' just now!"

Then two big men simply dragged this person away, and I had to do it myself. I was completely humiliated.

As they walked back, Shiraishi Zexiu said with a face full of resentment.

In CEO romance novels, there's no need for the author to lift a finger with someone like that; the author is truly disgracing the CEO—even though the author isn't actually that person.

"Okay, I'll be more careful next time," said Chiyo Ichiri, leaning against the bedside. Her soft shadow, cast on the floor, swayed with laughter.

"You guys really know how to stir things up, managing to give me two kids." Shiraishi Zexiu sat down and continued working on the mountain of documents.

"Let's just treat it as a learning experience." At this moment, Shiraishi Sawa also felt motivated. No matter what, this project couldn't be done badly.

"But he's reached the pinnacle of life, claiming to be the boyfriend of two young ladies at the same time. If only one of the young ladies could be replaced by two more ordinary girls."

"What did you say?" the two girls asked at the same time.

Behind Shiraishi Sawa, on both the left and right sides, appeared a girl exuding a chilling aura.

"I was wrong, I was wrong." Shiraishi Zexiu immediately covered his head and lay down.

"You dare to speak so loudly, without any regard for what I'm saying, huh!?"

"You abandoned me without even a moment's hesitation, didn't you!?"

.......

"Speaking of which, when did you start making up the story about your relationship with Sakura?" Chiyo asked curiously, because she genuinely didn't know.

"It's real, it couldn't be more real, the child is real too." Shiraishi Zexiu, who had experienced torment, said indignantly, lying on the table.

However, when Chiyo looked at Kuramochi Sakurai, facing her mischievous gaze, Kuramochi Sakurai finally told the whole truth.

"Why would that guy be in Aomori?" After finishing the story, Shiraishi Sawa thought of this and looked up to ask, "No wonder he's not called Shikato Oto."

"Back then, doing business in Aomori required some family connections. That person's father seemed to have a decent position in the family company, so he came to us in his father's place."

"A second-generation official, and an internal one at that—a formidable rival!"

"So, we need to be aware of potential crises, you know?"

"He certainly wouldn't dare to sabotage the project, especially with the two of you here. But what if he tries to do something underhanded to me? Please protect me, ladies!"

"To live or die on their own."

"It's a pity that our next meeting will be when I discover you're on the news at the bottom of the lake."

“But actually he does have one good point,” Chiyo Ichiri said with a smile.

"What!" Shiraishi Sawah raised his head alertly, staring intently at Ichiyo Ichiriki.

With a light laugh, looking at Shiraishi Sawah who was like a groundhog, Ichiyo continued, "Otherwise, I would have thought that Sakura Rei was the one in charge."

“How could it be me? Shiraishi-kun is the most capable among us,” Kuramochi Sakura denied.

“…I’m really capable, you’ll see.” Shiraishi Sawah gritted his teeth and buried himself back into the pile of documents.

Chapter 314 The True Role of Bodyguards

At noon, the weather was a bit colder than yesterday, but it became extremely comfortable at this time. On the lawn by the roadside, several cats were taking a nap with their bellies up.

Although I had just woken up, it still made me want to lie in the sun and take a nap.

Although the project may be important, sleeping in is more important to the two young ladies, so they usually don't come in the morning—unless it's really urgent.

Besides, what's so great about being a boss who's busier than their employees?
