Chapter 531: The Spy Is Here
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“It’s best to let nature take its course when it comes to relationships. Love should not bind people. If she’s happy. 1’11 be happy too.” Fang Yao looked up at the sky. It was cloudy tonight, and there were no stars. Only a crescent moon was faintly discernible.
The butler rolled his eyes. Why did Fang Yao suddenly act like a secondary male lead?
Seeing that Fang Yao was not fighting for it and was willing to give up, he said angrily, “Even if the lord is not anxious, the slave is. If you don’t pursue such a good girl urgently, what will you do if she is snatched away by someone else in the end?”
Fang Yao laughed and said, “Butler, don’t curse yourself like that.”
The butler was stunned for a moment. After a long time, he realized what Fang Yao meant and said angrily, “You brat, you can’t even protect your own interests and you still have the cheek to tease me!”
The butler and Fang Yao did not have so many rules when in private. Occasionally, the butler would speak to Fang Yao in the tone of an elder. Fang Yao had never minded.
“Don’t be angry. 1 was just joking with you.” Fang Yao raised his hand and made an oath. He promised the butler, “Don’t worry. After I help Yin Xun realize her dream, I will go on the offensive. I will definitely work hard.”
“You’ll work hard? A few years, ten years, or decades? Do you want to continue waiting like this? When you are old and sickly, let’s see if Miss Yin will still like you!” the butler hissed.
Fang Yao said, “…How could that be a problem if I’m the same age as Yin Xun?”
“Oh, you’re the same age. That’s wonderful news. When you’re in your fifties or sixties, you’ll be able to woo her. That’s good. That must be what they mean by a couple getting old together. You’ve just saved yourself a step.” The butler snorted.
Fang Yao did not seem to be concerned about this. He smiled and said, “It doesn’t seem too bad to have white hair.”
“Your biggest advantage now is that you have money. At least you can stay by her side as an ATM. When she succeeds in her career, you will lose this insurance. We’ll see if you can still smile then.”
The butler raised his hand and patted Fang Yao’s shoulder like an elder. He sighed and said, “Go on and maintain this mentality. If one day Miss Yin Xun suddenly brings home a man and introduces him to you, you have to smile as happily as you are now.”
Fang Yao stood where he was and lowered his head thoughtfully.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, “Actually, 1 still have a trump card.”
“What?” The butler looked at him curiously.
“Haven’t you heard of this saying? If you want to capture a woman’s heart, you have to capture her stomach first. Yin Xun likes my cooking very much.” Fang Yao’s tone was a little weak and lacked confidence.
“Haha, then continue to work hard and train your culinary skills.” The butler smiled at Fang Yao and left.
Fang Yao stood rooted to the ground and frowned slightly. “He’s right. My culinary skills are indeed lacking now. Looks like I have to study hard when 1 have time in the future.” With that, he walked toward his room.
Two days later, Si Fan had yet to make a move on Yin Rui, but he had started to make a move on Xintao.
On the day of Xintao’s recruitment test, a large number of employees resigned from Blue Fox.
Among these people were employees from all kinds of positions in Blue Fox. There were ordinary employees from management positions. It was unknown if Si Fan had arranged it this way on purpose or if it was just a coincidence.
There were so many people. Yin Xun thought of what Fang Yao told her the other day. Si Fan would plant two spies from Blue Fox. One of them was confirmed to be Si Fan’s assistant, Cheng She. As for the other one, even Fang Yao did not know who it would be. Yin Xun would have to think of a way to figure it out.
After the interview, Yin Xun asked the recruiter about things. Sure enough, Cheng She was here, so she asked someone to bring Cheng She to her office.
“You’re Si Fan’s assistant, Cheng She?” Yin Xun sized Cheng She up expressionlessly and asked indifferently.
“That’s right, President Yin, but I have already been fired by Blue Fox. Coincidentally, I bumped into Xintao’s recruitment, so I wanted to come over and give it a try.”
Cheng She felt uncomfortable under Yin Xun’s gaze. He was so nervous that he felt like his body was about to crumble. If Yin Xun could tell that he was a spy and chase him away, he would be finished.
Before he came, Si Fan had repeatedly instructed him to stay at Xintao. Even if Yin Xun found out, he had to stay.
Cheng She cursed in his heart. If he was discovered to be a spy, it was already a good result if he did not get beat up.. How could he expect them to let him stay? Who would be brainless enough to keep an undercover agent by their side?
