Ten o'clock at night.
Inside the Si Jiu celebrity disco hall.
Luo Hua Yin tossed a bottle of chilled beer to Du Yao Yao, who had just sat down opposite her.
Yao Yao, like Luo Hua Yin, had sweat on her forehead from dancing.
But Yao Yao was happy.
Life could really be this wonderful.
Thank goodness she and Luo Hua Yin had become best friends.
If Luo Hua Yin hadn't brought her to the disco, Yao Yao probably wouldn't have known how much fun it was to be in a disco her entire life.
Sigh.
After drinking half a bottle of beer in one go, Luo Hua Yin sighed softly.
Yao Yao asked, "What's the matter? What are you sighing about for no reason?"
Luo Hua Yin replied, "We agreed to be together, but now she's gone ahead and had a feast all by herself. The bond between women is truly unreliable."
Yao Yao looked confused, "Who? Who went ahead and had a feast by themselves? Where did they go? What did they eat?"
"Heh heh, would I tell you about such a good thing?"
Luo Hua Yin's triumphant laugh: "Unless you give me back the tens of thousands of yuan my mother (Li Wu Jiang) gave me."
Yao Yao was stunned, "Why are you so materialistic?"
Luo Hua Yin retorted, "Are you very generous?"
"Naturally."
Yao Yao tilted her small face up, her tone nonchalant, "However, I have a principle."
Luo Hua Yin asked, "What principle?"
Yao Yao replied, "That is, money that has entered my pocket will never be taken out again!"
Luo Hua Yin—
Could only ask, "Then do you want to know who is having a feast all by themselves?"
I don't want to!
Yao Yao answered decisively.
But when she opened her eyes the next morning, the first thing she thought of was: "Last night, who exactly had a feast by themselves? Where? What did they eat?"
Ma Rong Na didn't know.
The things she did last night troubled Yao Yao all night.
After lunch, she changed into a white shirt, a black hip-hugging skirt, showed off her legs without stockings, and stepped into high-heeled leather sandals. She then tactfully bid farewell to Li Qian Fan, her movements natural and elegant, forming a beautiful arc as she walked out of the suite.
At the hotel entrance, Kang Ning, who was there to pick her up, had been waiting for a long time.
Beep beep.
With a gentle honk, Kang Ning drove out of the hotel parking lot.
An hour later.
Li Qian Fan got out of the hotel and opened the door of the blue car.
Mr. Qian Fan—
He had finally, through his own supreme divine abilities, integrated the resources of Si Jiu, Tian Dong Provincial City, and other places, and could return to Qing Yun with a completely relaxed mind.
Qing Yun.
My home.
I'm back—
Li Qian Fan, filled with an inexplicable excitement, drove to Qing Yun at half-past three in the afternoon.
Looking at the bustling traffic on the street, Li Qian Fan felt both familiar and estranged.
He didn't go home.
Because he knew very well that at this time, both Old Man Su and Mother Lan would be at their workplaces.
Su Zi Yu, who was waiting for an auspicious day to return, would certainly not be at home.
The problem arose.
When was the auspicious day?
But no matter how Li Qian Fan asked, Zi Yu wouldn't tell him.
Even Mo Hong Ti was being coy and keeping secrets.
Helpless, Li Qian Fan gave up on prying and patiently waited for an auspicious day.
Since no one was home, Li Qian Fan drove directly to Zi Yu Fashion.
Although he wasn't sure if Old Man Su was at Qian Fan Pharmaceuticals or here at the fashion company.
He just felt a special sense of closeness to Zi Yu Fashion.
Zi Yu Fashion was the first business Li Qian Fan had started after his debut.
It was also in the dormitory of Zi Yu Fashion, with the help of Chong Chong, that he became a real man.
Li Qian Fan slowly drove into the factory gate, following a truck carrying goods.
Due to the exceptionally busy business of Zi Yu Fashion currently (mainly exporting gloves), the factory grounds and the front of the office building were filled with cars.
He decided to park his car in the open space behind the office building.
As he walked along, no security guard questioned him.
"Has Chen Dong, the Deputy Head of Security, become arrogant lately?"
Li Qian Fan stopped the car, frowned, and muttered to himself, lighting a cigarette.
Before returning to Qing Yun, he had deliberately not called to inform them.
This was because Li Qian Fan wanted to see the real situation when he wasn't around.
To put it arrogantly, it was almost like a secret inspection.
After finishing the cigarette, Li Qian Fan opened the car door and got out.
With his hands in his pockets, he ambled towards the east corner of the office building when he suddenly thought of something.
He looked up at the window on the third floor.
He murmured, "Thinking back to a day last year, I walked alone to the downstairs of the office building. When I occasionally looked up, I saw."
He saw what?
Li Qian Fan, who was talking to himself, suddenly fell silent.
He just stared blankly—
From the window on the third floor, a leg slowly extended.
The leg was slender, one meter and thirteen centimeters long.
The white skin, bare of stockings, was tender.
The tip of the elegant foot hooked a red high-heeled shoe.
It slowly extended out of the window, propped up by that high-heeled shoe.
Li Qian Fan could see the word written on it in lipstick.
"Itch."
"Could it be that I've suddenly returned to last year?"
As Li Qian Fan subconsciously thought this, his vision blurred.
That red high-heeled shoe descended from the sky.
Li Qian Fan instinctively raised his hand and caught it.
Then.
Li Qian Fan saw the enchanting smiling face of Boss Papi appear within his sight.
Her red lips parted slightly, silently mouthing, "Dad."
Gulp.
As the person who was called "Dad" swallowed, he heard hurried footsteps approaching from the corner of the building.
He quickly put the high-heeled shoe into his pocket.
Boss Papi also swiftly retracted her stockingless leg.
"Master!"
Chen Dong's gruff voice echoed, "Actually, I saw your car before you even entered the factory! But Deputy Head Dai didn't allow me to greet you at the entrance, saying she wanted to give you a surprise. That's why I ignored your arrival, it wasn't my negligence in work."
Amidst the shouting, Chen Dong, along with some security personnel, quickly walked past the corner of the wall.
His face was filled with joy, clearly genuine.
He repeatedly asked what surprise Deputy Head Dai had given his master.
Damn it.
Would I tell this blockhead that Deputy Head Dai showed me her beautiful legs and dropped her high-heeled shoe?!
Li Qian Fan glared and kicked him. Only then did Chen Dong stop his questioning.
"Oh, right."
Li Qian Fan asked, "How did Deputy Head Dai become a deputy head? She never told me? I thought she was still recovering and relaxing in Qing Yun."
Chen Dong replied, "Didn't Deputy Head Wei Wei give birth to a son a few days ago? Coincidentally, Deputy Head Dai has recovered from her injuries and volunteered to temporarily take over Deputy Head Wei's duties, helping General Manager Su (Old Man Su) specifically with the fashion factory's business."
What?
Sister Wan gave Old Gao a son?
How come I didn't know about this?
Is that his son—
Feeling ignored by Old Gao and Sister Wan, Li Qian Fan was very angry.
If Chen Dong hadn't stopped him, he would have called Gao Ling Wang to ask why he wasn't told about Sister Wan giving birth to a son!
"Master."
Chen Dong leaned close to Li Qian Fan, his face fawning, "After An Ran and I get married next month, can I also go to work abroad like Wang Zhe, who is currently in Southeast Asia and will return next month to marry Zhu Hui? Someone as outstanding as me, if I only serve as Deputy Head of Security within the company, it would be a great waste of talent!"
Damn it.
Someone like you, with such a thick head, dares to call yourself a talent being wasted if you stay in the company?
Li Qian Fan was about to kick him again when he saw Chen Dong's pitiful look.
He softened a little, "Well, as long as An Ran agrees to you going abroad, I have no objections."
Chen Dong smiled obsequiously, "Master, could you help me persuade An Ran? She doesn't listen to anyone but you."
Get lost—
Li Qian Fan could no longer endure it and kicked him away.
An Ran not letting him go abroad naturally had her own reasons.
After all, few girls liked their men going abroad and away from them.
The key point was that Chen Dong was not like Gao Ling Wang and the new generation!
From the moment Gao Ling Wang and the others stepped into this world, they were destined to have to put in effort that ordinary people couldn't to stand out in elite circles.
If they didn't take a gamble while they were young, they would quickly turn into useless spoiled brats who just ate and did nothing.
As for Wang Zhe.
That show-off was someone who danced on the tip of a knife. Anyone who could survive the Black Water Forest was considered an elite among elites.
This was also why Li Qian Fan and Sister Zhu Hui agreed to Wang Zhe following Gao Ling Wang and the others to conquer Southeast Asia.
Chen Dong was different.
He looked strong and capable, but competition and actual combat were two different things.
Furthermore, last year, both he and An Ran experienced the gold shop incident, which left them with significant psychological trauma.
An Ran only hoped that under her master's protection, she and Chen Dong could live a stable life working nine to five in the mainland, and nothing more.
If.
If Li Qian Fan managed to persuade An Ran, and let Chen Dong go out to fight for his fortune, and something happened to him?
If that really happened.
How would Li Qian Fan explain it to An Ran?
"A blockhead who doesn't know he's blessed is asking for a beating."
Li Qian Fan kicked Chen Dong away, muttered to himself, and walked into the office building with the high-heeled shoe in his pocket.
Everywhere he went—
All the staff bowed and greeted Li Qian Fan respectfully.
Many of the new hires didn't recognize Li Qian Fan at all.
But after seeing Deputy General Manager An Ran run over with red eyes and tears of excitement, and calling out "Master!" in a clear voice, who wouldn't understand that the big boss had arrived?
"An Ran, if Chen Dong disobeys in the future and makes you angry, tell me. I'll kick him to death."
Li Qian Fan cared for his apprentice's wife very much, and he hoped that she and Chen Dong could live happily and safely under his protection forever.
It took Li Qian Fan a full ten minutes to walk through the three floors.
Finally, he arrived at the door of the office of the Executive Deputy General Manager on the easternmost side of the third floor.
An Ran and Xie Wen Xiu, the two deputy general managers, smiled knowingly, cleared the area with their subordinates, and went downstairs.
"This is ridiculous. It's like I'm going to be making out with Boss Papi in the office in broad daylight."
As Li Qian Fan shrugged, he realized that the high-heeled shoe in his pocket had come out halfway without him knowing.
They must have seen it and misunderstood something.
Sigh.
These people's minds are not pure at all!
Li Qian Fan shook his head and pushed open the office door.
And then he saw—
Boss Papi, dressed in a black suit, sitting on the desk facing the door.
The red high-heeled shoe on her right foot was resting on the desktop.
She hugged her knees with both hands, and her bare white left foot, which dangled below the desk, swayed back and forth like water.
Her enchanting face was flushed.
Her eyes sparkled.
Looking at Li Qian Fan—
"Dad, come and put on shoes for Papi."
