However, when Lan Baobao heard Ye Zixun allowing the two of them to enter, she still felt very uncomfortable. She even began to doubt how much truth there was in Ye Zixun's words from last night. Clearly knowing that Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo were her sworn enemies, and knowing that she hated these two people deeply, Ye Zixun still wanted to cooperate with them, which left Lan Baobao in a difficult position.
Lan Baobao sat in her seat, lost in thought, her mind blank. She really couldn't imagine what kind of blow Ye Zixun would bring her when she decided to try to like him.
Just as Lan Baobao was dazed, the phone in front of her rang. Lan Baobao shivered and quickly picked up the phone. "Lan Baobao, make three cups of coffee," Ye Zixun's magnetic voice came through the line.
"Oh, got it." Lan Baobao replied reluctantly; she didn't understand why Ye Zixun was asking this. However, deep down, she didn't want to make coffee for those so-called clients in the office.
But since it was an order from Ye Zixun, Lan Baobao had no choice but to comply. The naive Lan Baobao thought bitterly that if she disobeyed Ye Zixun's command, the consequences would surely be miserable. Sigh, what could she do? It was better to just obediently make the coffee.
Lan Baobao slowly brewed the coffee. With a mischievous heart, she made instant coffee for Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo. Knowing that Pan Xinzi liked to add cream but not sugar in her coffee, she deliberately omitted the cream and added a lot of sugar instead. Hmm, this was Lan Baobao's little revenge. Anyway, she wasn't going to give those two evildoers any good treatment while making their coffee.
"President, your coffee." Lan Baobao elegantly placed the coffee in front of Ye Zixun, completely ignoring the deep amusement in his eyes. After setting up Ye Zixun's coffee, she then unhappily placed the two cups of instant coffee in front of Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo.
Yan Momo was furious at Lan Baobao's attitude and shot a fierce glare at her while Ye Zixun wasn't paying attention. Lan Baobao lifted her head high, treating Yan Momo like air. She turned to leave when suddenly Ye Zixun spoke up.
"Secretary Lan stays here."
Ye Zixun's words stirred up a wave in the hearts of the three people present. Yan Momo had already mentally killed Lan Baobao a thousand times but still wore a calm smile on her face.
Pan Xinzi frowned slightly upon hearing Ye Zixun's words, seemingly very dissatisfied with what he said. Meanwhile, Lan Baobao was completely stunned; what was Ye Zixun trying to do?
"President? It's probably better if I don't participate in your work discussions," Lan Baobao instinctively refused.
"Exactly, President Ye, what we're discussing are business secrets; it's not appropriate for Secretary Lan to be involved," Pan Xinzi quickly chimed in, completely forgetting that Lan Baobao was already Ye Zixun's wife.
At this moment, Yan Momo chose not to speak up; she knew very well that if she interrupted now, it would definitely backfire on her. In this regard, Yan Momo was quite clever.
"President Pan, it seems you have forgotten that the baby has another identity. She is also my wife, Ye Zixun, and she can stay here." Ye Zixun's words sounded light and casual, without a hint of anger, but the clever ones could hear the underlying meaning.
For a moment, the atmosphere became quite awkward, and everyone fell into silence. However, the happiest one was definitely Lan Baobao. Seeing the defeated expressions on Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo's faces made her extremely happy.
"Alright, let's continue," Ye Zixun finally broke the silence.
Now, Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo dared not voice any objections. They could only follow the lead given by Ye Zixun. Watching their faces turn from red to green and then back to red again, Lan Baobao felt an unusual sense of satisfaction. She even perversely thought that all the suffering she had endured before was worth it.
Lan Baobao stood beside Ye Zixun, listening to the professional jargon that she couldn't quite understand, feeling drowsy. Ye Zixun glanced at Lan Baobao during the negotiation and couldn't help but find it amusing.
After a long while, the contract was finally finalized. At this point, Yan Momo enthusiastically suggested celebrating the successful cooperation between the two companies by treating Ye Zixun to dinner, urging him to accept graciously. Although Pan Xinzi didn't understand why Yan Momo suddenly made this suggestion at this moment, she thought about it and realized that it could actually be beneficial for their collaboration.
Lan Baobao secretly rolled her eyes at Yan Momo. Celebrating cooperation? It was clear that Sister Yan was just trying to flirt with Ye Zixun again. Finding such a grand reason was truly hard to refuse.
Sure enough, Ye Zixun agreed without any hesitation. Upon hearing his response, Yan Momo's face immediately lit up with a smile as if she had already become Mrs. Ye. Lan Baobao felt goosebumps watching from the side; Yan Momo really loved digging into her territory as always.
"Then President Ye, see you tonight at Mingyue Hotel," Yan Momo said with a radiant smile directed at Ye Zixun.
Ye Zixun nodded and smiled slightly. After having his secretary escort Pan Xinzi and Yan Momo out, Lan Baobao immediately prepared to return to her desk; staying in the president's office was truly not a pleasant experience—it was just too torturous.
"Wait, who said you could leave?" Ye Zixun's sharp eyes quickly caught onto Lan Baobao's movements as he directly called out to stop her from proceeding.
Lan Baobao silently screamed in her heart, "Oh no, I've been discovered." Still very sensible, she halted her steps and turned to look at Ye Zixun.
"Um, President. The guests have left; I should be going now," Lan Baobao said cautiously.
"Uh-huh, come closer. Move quickly; don't make me repeat myself," Ye Zixun sat calmly in his office chair with a half-smile as he beckoned Lan Baobao with his finger.
Lan Baobao's legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and she genuinely did not want to go over. Lan Baobao knew very well that if she went over now, there would definitely be no good outcome, so she was quite conflicted.
However, she also dared not disobey Ye Zixun's orders. After a moment of hesitation, she cautiously moved towards Ye Zixun. Seeing Lan Baobao like this made Ye Zixun laugh; this Lan Baobao was truly quite servile.
"What’s wrong?" Lan Baobao finally made her way to Ye Zixun's side and reluctantly spoke.
Ye Zixun chuckled softly and suddenly pulled Lan Baobao into his arms. Lan Baobao did not expect Ye Zixun to launch a surprise attack; her center of gravity became unstable, and she fell onto Ye Zixun's lap.
Lan Baobao's face instantly turned red; she was sitting on Ye Zixun! Ye Zixun smiled broadly as he held Lan Baobao, clearly pleased with her reaction.
"What's up, silly? Why the enthusiasm?" Ye Zixun teased.
"You, you rogue," Lan Baobao struggled to jump off Ye Zixun's lap, but her strength was no match for him.
"Be good and stay still. Or do you want to satisfy me a little while you're here?"
Lan Baobao wisely chose not to move anymore. It would be a joke if something happened in the office; would she still have a life after that?
"What's wrong? Being obedient now? Silly, you can move around freely. Really, I have no objections at all," Ye Zixun said as he saw that Lan Baobao had finally quieted down and couldn't help but tease her again.
"Hmph, you’re a pervert," Lan Baobao bit her lip and retorted fiercely.
"Yes, I’m a pervert. Silly, don’t you like it?" Ye Zixun was completely unbothered; he was used to being a rogue. Besides, being called a rogue by his own wife wasn’t too embarrassing.
Lan Baobao turned her neck to the side and pressed her lips together without saying anything. She really wasn’t much of a flirt; if this continued, she would only end up being teased. In fact, Lan Baobao’s greatest strength was her ability to recognize the situation.
"Haha." Ye Zixun laughed heartily and tightened his embrace around Lan Baobao before kissing her.
After a kiss, Lan Baobao's face was almost blood-red. Ye Zixun, being a seasoned player in the game of love, naturally knew how to stir someone's desires. So, when a seasoned player faced an innocent novice, it was clear that the novice was completely defeated.
"Hmph." Taking advantage of Ye Zixun's momentary distraction, Lan Baobao quickly jumped off his lap.
Ye Zixun didn't try to pull her back; instead, he stood up from the chair, straightened his disheveled clothes, and smiled at Lan Baobao. "What are you going to do?" Lan Baobao crossed her arms over her chest, seriously guarding her clothes. Ye Zixun found her actions amusing and didn't know what to say. The longer he knew Lan Baobao, the more he wanted to understand her better.
"Aren't you supposed to be going to dinner with Yan Momo and the others? Why are you still here messing around with me?" Lan Baobao recalled how Ye Zixun had readily accepted Yan Momo's invitation earlier and felt uncomfortable about it.
"Are you jealous?" Ye Zixun's current demeanor was quite infuriating.
"I'm not! How could I be jealous? I haven't forgotten that we have a contractual marriage." Lan Baobao fiddled with her fingers and casually said this.
Ye Zixun felt a headache coming on; this was truly shooting oneself in the foot.
"As long as you remember that, you have no standing to interfere with my decisions." Ye Zixun spoke without thinking, defending his male pride while completely ignoring that his words would also upset Lan Baobao.
Lan Baobao nodded silently and stopped speaking.
"Alright, I'll take you back to Ye Family Mansion first. Then I'll go socialize." Ye Zixun wrapped his arms around Lan Baobao and opened the office door to leave.
