Until the figure of Fu Qingyun disappeared from the rearview mirror, Mo Ming finally let out a sigh of relief. It was unexpected that someone who feared nothing would actually be intimidated by Fu Qingyun, the Delinquent Girl; it was truly unheard of.
"Why were you so nervous just now?" Murong Lian observed Mo Ming's expression and could tell he was anxious. Feeling puzzled, she asked, "That girl seemed to be Yuan'er's cousin. Why did she call out to you? You didn't stop. You seemed really scared. Did you ruin her reputation or something?"
"Who’s scared of her? I just didn’t hear her," Mo Ming replied, feeling the tension in his heart rise as Murong Lian questioned him. His words were contradictory.
The reason Mo Ming was nervous was that Fu Qingyun spoke too boldly, which he found a bit unbearable. More importantly, he feared she would reveal the embarrassing incident from that night at Forget-Me-Not Bar when he had fled in disgrace.
"Stop lying! Do you know how contradictory your words were just now?" Murong Lian chuckled and then said earnestly, "Next time you go out to pick up girls, remember to ask clearly first. Don't create such situations again; you can't even spare your wife’s cousin!"
"Damn it, Murong Lian, stop being so nosy!" Mo Ming said helplessly with a bitter smile. "I swear to God, I really didn’t touch her. Although she wanted to come onto me, that night I..."
In a moment of panic, Mo Ming almost revealed his embarrassing story but managed to shut his mouth in time; otherwise, he would have humiliated himself. Murong Lian frowned, deeply suspicious that something bad had happened that night since Mo Ming seemed a bit tense when mentioning it.
"Go on, why aren’t you saying anything?" Murong Lian's lips curled slightly as she asked, "Did something inappropriate happen that night? Did you do something wrong to that girl?"
"I didn’t!" Mo Ming felt wronged and scowled. "Have I offended some bad luck recently? Why am I always being misunderstood? Murong Lian, I’m telling you, nothing bad happened that night; it wasn’t as sordid as you think."
"Hey, I wasn’t thinking anything sordid; that’s what you brought up yourself," Murong Lian said. Although she believed Mo Ming's words in her heart, she wouldn’t let him off easily verbally.
Regarding this matter, Mo Ming really didn’t want to explain anymore; further explanations would only make things worse. He decided to keep quiet. Sure enough, Murong Lian didn’t ask any more questions.
...
The next day, Yang Yuan arrived at Starry Rhythm Advertising Company with his subordinate Liu Hu. Mo Ming had already gathered some insight into Liu Hu's identity; judging by his skills, while not as good as his own, he was still professionally trained and didn’t seem like an employee of Ultimate Electronics Company but rather like Yang Yuan’s personal bodyguard.
Because Murong Lian had informed Yang Yuan the night before that the creative ideas had been finalized and hoped he could come to the company the next day to see how they turned out. If satisfied, Ultimate Electronics Company would quickly transfer the funds so Starry Rhythm Advertising Company could proceed with further work.
Yang Yuan came this time under the pretense of work, but in reality, it was for Murong Lian. The reason for this is that Murong Lian had almost refused all of Yang Yuan's invitations for private meetings, always having an excuse. Yang Yuan knew that Murong Lian did not think highly of him, but he felt powerless.
Murong Lian printed several copies of the finalized advertising ideas and distributed them to everyone attending the meeting, asking Lin Yuan'er to use the projector to explain the concepts in detail.
During the meeting, Lin Yuan'er spoke logically and had prepared thoroughly. Yang Yuan listened with admiration, seemingly very satisfied, nodding frequently while occasionally glancing at Lin Yuan'er.
After Lin Yuan'er succinctly introduced the ideas, she turned to Yang Yuan with a slight smile and said, "Young Master Yang, your company plans to develop in Nanhua City, so necessary advertising promotion is essential. Therefore, my first idea is aimed at enhancing Ultimate Electronics Company's visibility in Nanhua City. I believe that with my concept, your company will become well-known overnight. Young Master Yang has already seen my ideas; are you satisfied?"
Clap clap...
The conference room erupted with thunderous applause as Yang Yuan clapped his hands and smiled, "As expected of the Creative Queen of the advertising industry, Director Lin's ideas are unique and captivating. I am very pleased with these three concepts. From now on, regarding company matters, you need not consult me; feel free to proceed. If funds are lacking, we will not hold back a single cent."
"Young Master Yang truly has sincerity. It is rare for someone to allow me such freedom. Today, Young Master Yang has set a precedent," Murong Lian said with a slight nod and a faint smile. "To honor Young Master Yang's sincerity, we will do our utmost to handle this matter well; please rest assured."
"Then it is decided. Tomorrow we will transfer the necessary funds to your company's account, and you can start work then. I hope it can be done quickly; by the end of this month, Ultimate Electronics Company will establish a branch in Nanhua City."
"Rest assured, Starry Melody Company is always efficient in our work; we will definitely complete everything before the end of the month."
With that, Murong Lian and Yang Yuan stood up to shake hands, marking the conclusion of the meeting.
After the meeting adjourned, everyone left the conference room, leaving only Murong Lian, Yang Yuan, and Liu Hu behind.
Yang Yuan smiled and said, "Since we've finished discussing business, I hope we can talk about personal matters. To celebrate our friendly cooperation, how about I treat Miss Murong to dinner tonight?"
"Young Master Yang, I’m really sorry," Murong Lian replied somewhat awkwardly. "Because last night while working overtime, I made plans with my staff to celebrate tonight. I'm afraid I won't be able to step away this evening. However, if Young Master Yang doesn't mind, you could join us for our celebration."
"Alright, since Miss Murong has graciously invited me, how could I not show up? I will definitely arrive on time tonight," Yang Yuan said with a gentlemanly smile. "I wonder where Miss Murong has made the reservation?"
"Dream Night Club, Dreamland Room. I hope Young Master Yang won't stand me up," Murong Lian joked with Yang Yuan. "If Young Master Yang dares to stand me up, I will just take Young Master Yang's fortune and run away."
"Haha... Miss Murong really knows how to joke. I think with that little amount of money, Miss Murong doesn't need to do such a thing," Yang Yuan laughed at Murong Lian's words. After laughing for a while, he glanced at his watch and said, "Alright, I have another appointment today, so I'll take my leave now. See you tonight."
Murong Lian nodded and said, "Then I won't hold you back from your business any longer. See you tonight."
Without saying another word, Yang Yuan left with Liu Hu. This time, Yang Yuan did not provoke Mo Ming again; it wasn't that he was afraid of Mo Ming, but he felt that doing so would be ungracious, so he decided not to bother with such trivial matters.
Mo Ming initially thought that after Yang Yuan came out, he would come to mock him again. However, after Yang Yuan came out, he only gave him a strange smile before leaving with Liu Hu. As for Liu Hu, he didn't make any moves.
Now Mo Ming could be considered the most idle person around. Qiu Lan had been in a cold war with him since yesterday, Murong Lian was still busy with work, and Lin Yuan'er, who should have been clinging to Mo Ming, was instead being pursued by Client Department Director Ren Long.
Although Ren Long rarely came to the office, he had already heard rumors about a beautiful creative director joining the company—so stunning that it was unbelievable. When he arrived at the office today and saw her for himself, he was indeed captivated; Ren Long's heart began to flutter as if spring had arrived.
Draped in the guise of business, Ren Long engaged Lin Yuan'er in conversation. Out of politeness, Lin Yuan'er had no choice but to patiently talk with Ren Long. However, Ren Long was indeed the director of the client department; his ability to talk was impressive. They chatted for a long time and often brought up company matters, which made it difficult for Lin Yuan'er to find an opportunity to cling to Mo Ming.
Although Mo Ming felt quite relaxed because of this situation, Ren Long's intentions were not pure. As he entangled himself with Lin Yuan'er, Mo Ming felt inexplicably displeased and suddenly had the impulse to kick Ren Long away; however, this thought quickly passed.
"Well, after all, this is her own business. What am I? It seems unreasonable for me to interfere with someone liking Lin Yuan'er," Mo Ming said with a bitter smile as he shook his head and mocked his own inexplicable thoughts while continuing to play DOTA.
Ren Long spoke as if the river flowed endlessly; Lin Yuan'er's patience was nearing its limit. Seeing Mo Ming remain indifferent made her feel somewhat unhappy—your girlfriend is being pursued by someone else and you still don't hurry to rescue her?
Just when Lin Yuan'er was about to reach her breaking point, Mo Ming finished his game and looked up. Lin Yuan'er suddenly had an idea and said to Ren Long, "Director Ren, I'm sorry but my husband is calling me; I must go see what he needs."
When Ren Long was getting excited, he nearly dropped his eyes out when he heard Lin Yuan'er suddenly say such a thing. What? You actually have a husband? Where is your husband?
However, despite his surprise, Ren Long still smiled and said, "Since that's the case, you should go. We wouldn't want your husband to be worried."
"Mm." Lin Yuan'er nodded and quickly moved to Mo Ming's side. Knowing that Ren Long was still watching her, she decided to play along and said sweetly, "Brother Mo, did you just call me?"
Hearing this, Mo Ming looked up at Lin Yuan'er in surprise, his face full of confusion. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, when did I call you?"
Lin Yuan'er hurriedly winked at Mo Ming, which only confused him further. He asked, "Hey, Director Lin, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Ah...
Fearing that Mo Ming would expose her, Lin Yuan'er quickly pinched Mo Ming's arm, causing him to scream in pain and jump up. Upon seeing Ren Long's gaze from a distance, he instantly understood that Lin Yuan'er was setting herself up for trouble!
"How could it be him?" Ren Long frowned, feeling both shocked and puzzled. His emotions were very complex; all friendliness towards Mo Ming had vanished, replaced by hostility and jealousy.
At that moment, Zhao the Eunuch seemed to have overheard the conversation between Lin Yuan'er and Ren Long. With a smile, he walked over with a sway of his hips and said with a flourish of his fingers, "Director Ren, don't waste your efforts. Director Lin is quite infatuated with that kid Mo Ming. I just found out today that they are actually husband and wife."
Ren Long's face darkened as he turned and left in a huff. Meanwhile, Mo Ming felt somewhat innocent; his mouth twitched slightly as he realized what Zhao the Eunuch had just revealed. Now he finally understood what it meant to have a beautiful woman bring disaster.
