There’s definitely some kind of relationship between these two that they don’t want others to see!
And how can a mere mortal have a special ability, let alone one with Spiritual Power surpassing hers?
All of these are dubious points!

It was already past 5 in the afternoon.
After leaving the teahouse, Chu Jin took a ride to TheKing Internet Technology Company.
When she arrived, Qin Zhenglin was already waiting for her downstairs. Standing with his back to the sunlight, he walked towards her slowly; everything else around him became the backdrop. With his brows and eyes painted across his face like art, and pupils like stars, bathed in the sun, he exhibited a grace akin to an elegant orchid in a secluded valley.
It seemed that every time she saw Brother Jin, she gave her a different feeling, especially that aura beyond her years, demanding attention.
This woman, no matter where she went, would be the one under the spotlight. Such a woman could not be confined by a mere small attic room.
Although she was much older than Brother Jin, in her presence, it felt as if she were the younger one.
In need of her guidance and advice.
She was his light, his faith.
If it weren’t for her, he might still be trapped in those dark, narrow alleys, living a life worse than death.
The life he currently enjoyed was something he had never dared to dream of before.
"Brother Jin, on such a hot day, it’s really hard on you to have to run back and forth," Qin Zhenglin paused for a while, then approached her.
Chu Jin gave him a slight smile, "That’s nothing. If we’re talking about hard work, it’s you who has it tough, being busy with the company’s affairs every day and also helping to look after Yan Yuzhai."
"Not hard at all, all of this is what I should be doing. It’s hot down here, let’s go upstairs to talk," Qin Zhenglin scratched his head and then led Chu Jin upstairs.
TheKing spanned nine floors, divided into the R&D department, technical department, customer service department, marketing department, and so on...
Although it was just an emerging industry and not large in scale, unable to compete with other well-known conglomerates, it was fully functional despite its size. Under the leadership of Qin Zhenglin, and due to the good location chosen for the company’s office, the company gradually got onto the right track.
Moreover, the software products released by TheKing were unique in the market, innovative, challenging, matched the consumption concept of contemporary people, and catered to the modern lifestyle, thus, they were quite popular among the youth.
As she followed Qin Zhenglin, everyone engrossed in their work cast curious glances at her. Their first impression was that this girl looked familiar, as though they had seen her somewhere. The second impression was astonishment—the face was more exquisite than any movie star’s.
Since Chu Jin had given instructions beforehand, Qin Zhenglin did not introduce her to everyone.
This was the first time Qin Zhenglin had brought a woman to the company, and his attitude was so respectful that after the two of them left, a group of people in the cubicles started to gossip.
"Hey, who do you think was that person following behind President Qin just now? A new colleague?"
"A new colleague? Are you stupid?" One of them went to the water dispenser to get water, "Didn’t you see how President Qin was almost bowing in her presence? Which one of us enjoyed that kind of treatment when we joined the company?"
"Right, could it be that she’s a high-level leader parachuted from above to inspect our work?" A young man working on code pushed up his glasses.
One of them interjected, "A high-level leader? I don’t think so! That girl looked to be at most eighteen or nineteen, probably hasn’t even graduated from college, right?"
"Maybe she hasn’t even finished high school," another one joked.
"I bet she’s definitely the daughter of the big boss, bored at home, and just came to the company for a visit..."
Upon this remark, someone immediately asked curiously, "Speaking of which, have any of you ever seen the big boss in person?"
"Never seen him, Sister Xiangrong, you’ve been at the company the longest, have you ever seen him?" The bespectacled young man threw the question to another woman who was typing away furiously at her keyboard.
Chen Xiangrong lifted her head, "I haven’t seen him either."
She was just an obscure little hacker, and because her education was not high, not many companies were willing to hire her until she met Qin Zhenglin. He told her about the mysterious big boss behind the scenes.
She approached Qin Zhenglin with a just-give-it-a-try attitude, never expecting the big boss to directly let her join the company and even let her take the position of an A-level programmer.
"Sister Xiangrong, you’re so close to President Qin, and even you haven’t seen the big boss?"
Chen Xiangrong shook her head.
She was also very curious about who this mysterious backer of the company was, someone who managed to develop TheKing so well in such a short period.
"I bet the big boss must be a man in his forties."
"I think our big boss must be around thirty, unmarried, a prime bachelor! About six feet tall, with everything below the arms being legs, having a six-pack, and looking like Tony Leung..." another female employee said, full of admiration.
Another person brutally brought her back to reality, "Ha, thirty? Unmarried? Stop dreaming. Didn’t you see his daughter is already that grown up?"
"With the daughter’s looks being so great, she definitely inherited her parents’ excellent genes..."
"It’s not for certain that girl is the big boss’s daughter."
"I heard our big boss didn’t even show up on the day the company opened."
"That mysterious, huh?"
"..."
For a time, the topic in the cubicle area revolved around the big boss.
