Facing the inquisitive gazes of the two women, Yang Hao slowly stood up and then straightened his somewhat disheveled hair, putting down the screwdriver that should not be in the hands of Mr. Yang like thisâ¦
Um, a piece of BGM is missing!
That segment from âKangxi Dynasty Incognito Visit Notes.â
Whenever an identity was revealed, that powerful and inspiring melody would rise.
Yang Hao self-imagined a piece of BGM, then said seriously, âActually, I am the new President of the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group!â
âAh?â
Jiang Yuqi was completely bewildered, her pretty eyes filled with shock.
Obviously, she believed it!
However, Cai Meichen burst into laughter, âYou are the President of the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group?â
âThen how comes I, the Presidentâs wife, donât recognize you??â
âUm??â
âPresidentâs wife??â
Now it was Yang Haoâs turn to be flustered. He paused for a moment before realizing that this woman didnât believe him and was just saying this.
Hearing her auntie say this, Jiang Yuqi also realized that Yang seemed to be joking.
If he really were the President of the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, how could he have possibly come to fix her range hood.
Thatâs just too absurd!
âYang, can you fix it?â
Jiang Yuqi felt that Yang Haoâs joke was a bit awkward, so she simply changed the subject.
âItâs already fixed.â
âJust needs to be reinstalled!â
The skill given by the System was indeed awesome, Yang Hao fixed the range hood quite easily.
âThat was fast!â
âYang, youâre amazing!â
Jiang Yuqi exclaimed with admiration.
Yang Hao thought this line sounded very familiar; of course, it was the second one.
The first one was Fat Pengâs exclusive!
Whenever he finished fixing the range hood, Wang Xueru always exclaimed with the second sentimentâ¦
Now Mrs. Jiang was also praising him like this, indeed, a man with good skills was popular!
âIt was nothing.â
Yang Hao shrugged smugly, then quickly reinstalled the range hood and turned on the power to test the performance. Strong suction and the sound of the motor were just right.
Perfect!
Yang Hao was very satisfied with his work.
Who says a President canât fix range hoods?
Mr. Yangâs specialty is possessing good skills, focused on fixing range hoods for twenty years!
âYang, thank you so much. Letâs have dinner together!â
Jiang Yuqi extended the invitation.
âNot today, some other day!â
Yang Hao waved his hand, as he needed to pick up Xixi from class.
âYouâre picking up Xixi, arenât you?â@@novelbin@@
Jiang Yuqi also thought of this.
âMhm.â
Yang Hao nodded.
âThen another time.â
âIâll invite you and Xixi for a meal,â Jiang Yuqi said politely.
âAll right then, letâs settle on that!â
Yang Hao didnât decline and left directly after gathering his toolbox.
âYang, see you tomorrow~â
âMhm, see you tomorrow!â
Yang Hao waved at Jiang Yuqi, then glanced at Cai Meichen who was sitting on the sofa taking a call, and joked, âGoodbye, Mrs. President!â
Cai Meichen, who was on the phone, gave him a roll of her eyes in response.
To her, this man seemed a bit pretentious.
After Yang Hao left, Cai Meichen also just finished her call and asked Jiang Yuqi, âQiqi, does this Mr. Yang not have a wife?â
âYeah, Yang has divorced,â
Jiang Yuqi truthfully responded.
âI guessed as much.â
Cai Meichen pursed her lips, âHe came over to help you fix the range hood so eagerly, itâs clear he has designs on you.â
âEh?â
âNo way!â
Jiang Yuqi shook her head, âI asked him to help me.â
âBut he laid the groundwork first, otherwise how would you know he could fix range hoods.â
âIâm telling you, Qiqi, these older men have deep schemesâ¦â
Cai Meichen spoke gravely.
âAh?â
âThat canât be it!â
Jiang Yuqi recalled how she came to know that Yang Hao could fix range hoods.
It was during the parent-child sports day when she used Yang Haoâs phone to help take pictures, and then someone suddenly sent him a message complaining about a range hood issueâ¦
If it was deliberately planned, the timing couldnât have been that precise.
âAuntie, youâve seen too many bad people.â
âYang is a pretty dependable person, raising his daughter on his own, he takes really good care of Xixi and is a great dad!â
Jiang Yuqi rebutted her auntieâs view.
After hearing her great-nieceâs words, Cai Meichen frowned, as her own brother had abandoned his wife and daughter early on, resulting in Jiang Yuqi growing up without a fatherâs love.
Therefore, men significantly older than her tended to attract her more.
âQiqi, you donât actually have feelings for him, do you?â
âI advise you to wake up!!â Cai Meichen warned with a serious face.
âI do have a good impression of him, but not the kind youâre thinking of!â
âI just think Yang is a very good person. Itâs not easy for him to raise Xixi alone,â Jiang Yuqi explained.
âSo, you want to be someoneâs stepmother?â
Cai Meichen gave her niece a white look. Even though she was an elder, her relationship with Jiang Yuqi was kind of funny. The age gap between them wasnât significant, so the way they got along was not much different from friends.
Jiang Yuqi hardly regarded this aunt as an actual elder, so when they chatted, they would sometimes tease each other like besties and even get angry at times!
Seeing her aunt getting more and more ridiculous, Jiang Yuqi indignantly retorted, âYeah, right, I want to be Xixiâs stepmother!â
âFine, Iâll call your mom right now and see if she agreesâ¦â
âThen call!â
Jiang Yuqi adopted a defiant attitude, as if she was ready for everything to fall apart.
âYou really think I wonât call??â
Cai Meichen lifted her phone, pretending she was about to tattle.
And so, the aunt and niece, harmonious just moments before, suddenly found themselves at oddsâ¦
Starlight City.
Haidilao Hot Pot.
Sun Xinyi and Xu Yali, childhood friends of twenty years, sat opposite each other.
âXinyi, you actually know my boss?â
Xu Yaliâs eyes were wide with disbelief, the four characters practically written on her face.
âDo you remember that Yang I told you about?â
âThe one who gave you the LV bracelet, and the Prada handbag?â
âMhm, thatâs him!â
Sun Xinyi nodded, then said, âHe is your boss, the President of Jiangcheng Newspaper Group!â
âHoly shit!â
âReally??â
Xu Yali was thoroughly shocked, cursing out loud.
âHow could something like that be fake?â Sun Xinyi shook her head.
âSo, youâre saying, my boss is actually chasing after my best friend???â
Xu Yali came to such a conclusion.
However, Sun Xinyi let out a sigh, âHe is your boss, thatâs true, but it seems heâs no longer chasing me.â
âHeâs not chasing you, yet he bought you an LV bracelet, a Prada bag?â
âHas he gone mad???â
Xu Yali couldnât fathom.
Sun Xinyi had no secrets with this friend, and explained, âInitially, he seemed interested, but I didnât respond enthusiastically, right?â
âThen, another female coach at our fitness center took the initiative.â
âNow, it seems theyâre together. Yang bought her a Mercedes worth over half a million, and heâs even letting her help decorate the mansionâ¦â
Holy cow!!
Hearing this, Xu Yali cursed again, giving her friend a scornful glance: âXinyi, are you stupid or what?â
âDidnât I tell you to seize the opportunity?â
âThis was your chance to climb the social ladder, an opportunity some people never get in their whole life!â
Sun Xinyi sighed gently, indeed feeling some regret.
âSo, whatâs your status with him now?â
Xu Yali asked again.
âRight, now to the main point I was going to tell you.â
Sun Xinyi perked up, âYang asked me to become his secretary, and he said to bring you along!â
âAh?â
âSecretary??â
âAnd he said for me to bring you along?â
Now, Xu Yali was the one baffled, but her friend had indeed brought her some good news.
If Mr. Yang really meant for her to bring Sun Xinyi, she wouldnât be transferred or fired.
âHe wants to keep you close!â
After a brief moment of astonishment, Xu Yali spoke again, âSo, Xinyi, you still have a chance!â
âIâll go with you to buy a suit later!â
âKnock him dead tomorrow!!â
The next day.
Jiangcheng Newspaper Group Headquarters.
Commissioner He Shuangshuang had just started her computer.
When the sound of high heels clacking on the floor echoed in the hallway, she instinctively looked up to see a tall, leggy beauty in a professional suit approaching her.
âHello, is this Human Resources?â
The beauty approached politely.
âYes, may I ask who you are?â
He Shuangshuang stood up from her seat and asked courteously.
âIâm here to report for work.â
âMy name is Sun Xinyi,â the beauty revealed her name.
âAre you here to report or for an interview?â
He Shuangshuang was puzzled; they had interviews scheduled today but no new hires were expected.
âUh, to report.â
Sun Xinyi hesitated briefly before affirming her purpose.
âI havenât received any notification. Which department?â He Shuangshuang inquired.
âThe Presidentâs Officeâ¦â Sun Xinyi answered.
âThe Presidentâs Office is hiring today; youâre here for the interview, right?â He Shuangshuang mistook the beauty for an interviewee.
Before she could finish her sentence, Wang Zhen, the HR manager, hurried over with a smile, âMiss Sun, are you the one?â
âMhm, Iâm Sun Xinyi.â
âHello, Iâm Wang Zhen, the HR manager. I just received the notification. Please follow me!â
âShuangshuang, prepare a contract and bring it to the meeting room!â
Wang Zhen had just received a call from Wei Zhengyi, who mentioned that Mr. Yang had personally selected a new secretary and an assistant.
And upon seeing Sun Xinyi in person, Wang Zhen couldnât help but silently criticize: Isnât this supposed to be hiring a secretary? Itâs basically recruiting for the harem!
He courteously ushered Sun Xinyi into the meeting room, Wang Zhen personally poured her a glass of water, and then asked, âMiss Sun, your position is the secretary at the Presidentâs Office, correct?â
Sun Xinyi nodded, âThatâs correct.â
After receiving a firm answer, Wang Zhen continued, âThe contract hasnât arrived yet, but let me briefly discuss the terms of your position.â
âUpon joining, your grade will be T4, with a monthly salary of 12K and fifteen salaries a year.â
âThe bonus for the Presidentâs Office is decided personally by the President, so the exact amount is uncertain, but conservatively estimated, the annual salary wonât be less than 250,000â¦â
