“Uhh—I’m good. Better use that stamina for work. We are on a tight schedule here. It’s the final quarter of the year. Might need OT.”

I mean Lin Yazhi is like a total plot device. Everywhere she goes, the drama follows! I’m not that adventurous to join her for dinner.

“Fine...” The junior pursed her lips as she backed away slowly.

Sipping her coffee, Lu Zhaoyang could constantly hear the gasps among gossips in the midst of keyboard tapping. The keyword was none other than Starlight Quintet, the one she was punching into Google.

The showbiz was boiling that day as almost every website was having headlines about this particular boy group.

SHOCKER! THE DRUG ADDICT QUINTET!

STARLIGHT AT PROSTITUTION! RED HANDED!

MEMBER OF STARLIGHT, THE ABUSIVE!

Apparently one member had been exposed on suspicion of committing substance abuse, prostitution and beating up people. And he had been arrested.

The company made an official statement to address their sincerest apology and the news shunning the entire group permanently.

Huo Yunting was truly a man of his words. He did annihilate the group the moment he promised Lin Yazhi.

I mean, they are the public figures and they should be aware of how influential their every action is especially towards the younger fanbase. Serves them right! I would say, although it’s very unfair towards the rest of the group.

Perhaps it was a really busy day. Lu Zhaoyang was a little surprised upon seeing an actually productive president working at the office. It felt like a century had lapsed thinking back the last time the president was this competent.

Soon half of the week had passed as nothing happened between the man and the woman. There was no abusive interaction from Huo Yunting and Lu Zhaoyang left the man alone either way.

It was such a strange feeling to have nobody attempting to intrude her room, challenging her boundaries every night. It was even stranger to see the man being self-aware as he slept in the other room for guests.

The suspense had been occupying Lu Zhaoyang’s thoughts for the following days as she honestly wondered what the devil was up to this time.

So, there was a rather important meeting today.

Secretary Lu, with the stack of contract in her hands, stepped into the man’s office.

“Oh~ How are you?” Said Mo Shan with her signature, angelic smile.

“I’m fine. Thanks.” Zhaoyang responded with a textbook smile as she placed the contract onto the table, “My president, this is the contract for the negotiation today. Please have a look.”

“Oh~ Brother Yunting,” Mo Shan slanted against Yunting’s throne as she took the contract and skimmed through it playfully like a child on her first visit to the library, “I am—pretty available today. How about I join you at the meeting today?”

“Great, I was feeling troubled because I have a tight schedule today,” replied Lu Zhaoyang promptly, she passed the president a glance, “Let Miss Mo join you, my president.”

Well, it’s just a silly business luncheon and he simply needs a shiny prop for his business masculinity, anyone is fine. He can take Huo Li too.

I’m serious, Huo Yunting knows his stuff. The partner doesn’t need to do anything at the meeting.

“Fabulous. You can focus on your work today, my dearest sister. I’ll accompany Brother Yunting for today’s meeting,” said Mo Shan gently, her fingers strolling on Yunting’s shoulder as she smiled sweetly. Her mind was thoroughly confused though.

Okay now, can anyone tell me what really happened these few days? Why is Lu Zhaoyang here again?

Did Brother Yunting bring her back? Even after knowing what happened between Huo Chen and Lu Zhaoyang?

Like even the maids and butlers were putting up an attitude towards her at the Huo family’s mansion since she refused to help even her own mother. Imagine her days at the mansion, must be so scandalous...That’s what I heard.

But, now, look where she is! Yunting said the company is in need of reinforcement, that is why he brought her away from all the drama.

More like he was feeling sorry for her!

It’s a giveaway that all the workers who once ill-treated her at the mansion were immediately fired after both of them left. Someone had just ended their career since these workers will now be notorious for their misconduct and no one in the capital would dare employ the workers because it would be an obvious sign of them going against the Huo family if they did.

I wouldn’t buy the story that the whole Huo family decided to help her out in the first place. I wouldn’t believe Brother Yunting would go this far either. There has to be someone.

We’ll see, Lu Zhaoyang. Only I know how this will turn out.

“Have a good day,” Lu Zhaoyang turned away after quickly greeting. She had enough with the cheesy interactions between the president and Mo Shan.

“Secretary Lu,” the lethargic voice rang coldly as it sent chills down her spine, “You are my worker. Please fulfill your responsibilities as my secretary. You are joining me at the luncheon today. Put any other work aside.” He pulled the contract away from Mo Shan’s grip.
