“Everyone has their flaws,” Si Fuqing said languidly. “I have high standards for my idols, and Emperor Yin is one of them.”
Yu Xiheng hummed in response, his tone betraying neither pleasure nor displeasure, “Go have some soup to warm up.”
“Boss, you’re so good to your employees.” Si Fuqing headed to the kitchen. “I’ll serve you a bowl too.”
The man nodded slightly.
Leaning on the sofa, his long legs stretched out gracefully, he lightly tapped his fingertips on the teacup. His expression was somewhat obscured by the curling tea steam, yet his eyes and brows seemed even more striking.
Yu Tang had been eavesdropping in the kitchen.
Seeing Si Fuqing enter, she straightened up.
“Hmph, Qingqing, just now my third brother was asking about you,” she pouted. “But I didn’t tell him anything.”
Si Fuqing patted her shoulder, “Good job.”
Meanwhile, Feng San, having finished his tasks, entered from outside. He immediately sensed something unusual about Yu Xiheng, “Brother Nine?”
Brother Nine’s mood seemed off today, even noticeable to him.
Yu Xiheng came back to reality, speaking lightly, “It’s nothing.”
Feng San sighed in relief, “I’ve also had the chef prepare some recipes to nourish Miss Si.”
It seemed Miss Si would be staying here longer, no longer needing to shuttle back and forth.
How timely that fire had been.
Elsewhere, at Zuo Corporation.
A deal was being signed between two parties.
A middle-aged man took the document from an assistant and frowned, “Ms.
Zuo, did you make a mistake here?”
Zuo Xianyu looked over the document again, pressing her temples and smiling apologetically, “Sorry, my mistake. I’ve been a bit tired lately.”
“You must take good care of yourself, Mr. Zuo. With your youth, you’ll definitely bring the Zuo family into the international market,” the middle-aged man complimented as he stood up.
“You flatter me.” Zuo Xianyu saw the man out, then frowned. How could she make such a simple error in a business contract today?
She needed to restproperly.
Zuo Xianyu didn’t work overtime, returning to the Zuo residence instead.
Zuo Tianfeng was on a call in the living room, looking displeased.
“Zuo Tianfeng! I need to ask you, how do you manage that outsider in your family!” Pei Xu gritted his teeth. “You promised me cooperation, that I would become the chairman of the Pei family, and in return, I would support the Zuo family. But what about now?!”
Zuo Tianfeng frowned, “What’s wrong now? I’ve helped you, and what does this have to do with Si Fuqing? Could she be helping Pei Yan?”
He knew Si Fuqing too well.
Old Master Zuo once wanted to groom Si Fuqing for a role in the Zuo
Corporation, but it was shelved when she showed no business talent.
Zuo Tianfeng was relieved Si Fuqing hadn’t joined the Zuo Corporation, or else the family might have ended up in the hands of an outsider.
With Zuo Xianyu there, Zuo Tianfeng was quite reassured.
He waved at Zuo Xianyu, “Xianyu, come sit down, we’re about to have dinner.”
Zuo Xianyu set down her bag and asked, “Dad, who was that on the phone?”
“Pei Xu,” Zuo Tianfeng replied nonchalantly. “There’s some power struggle in the Pei family. I don’t know what’s going on, but Pei Xu brought up Si Fuqing as if I didn’t know she’s a business dud.”
As he finished speaking, Pei Xu’s roar came through the phone.
“Helping Pei Yan? She’s done more than just help him! Damn it, she’s helping Pei Yan enter the elite circles of Sijiu City! ” Pei Xu was seething.. “Zuo Tianfeng, the investment from RS Corporation! You didn’t tell me she knows the Duke of Muston!”
