The car was traveling on the highway. The speed was not too fast, around 110 kilometers per hour, and the ride was quite smooth.
Ye Shuang was holding the steering wheel, while Chen Qin in the passenger seat was taking a little nap. She was leaning slightly against the window. The light from the streetlights along the way flowed across her face, leaving starlike spots.
After sending Tang Keke and Yu You back, Ye Shuang personally drove Chen Qin back to the company. He clearly knew how busy a day could be for Chen Qin as the president of a group. Not to mention that it had already taken an hour to drive there and the mental energy it consumed. If she had to drive back like this again, Ye Shuang really worried that she wouldn't be able to hold up.
Although Chen Qin had a driver, she never asked the driver to drive for her personal affairs.
"..."
"Um..." After about twenty minutes, Chen Qin woke up. First, she looked around in a daze. When she saw Ye Shuang, she subconsciously touched the corner of her lips.
"You didn't drool." With just one sentence from Ye Shuang, Chen Qin's face immediately flushed red. "I... I wasn't thinking about that."
Ye Shuang just smiled and didn't say anything. Just as Chen Qin knew him very well, he also knew her personality well. After a long time of getting along and knowing each other, there had already been an indescribable tacit understanding between them.
"How much work do you still have to finish?" Ye Shuang asked. Although Chen Qin always said that she was very idle, she didn't look like it at all.
"There are some documents to read... And then, I have to take a flight to Australia at three o'clock in the morning for a meeting."
"I have to come back that afternoon and be a guest at an evening event." As Chen Qin said, she skillfully took out a laptop and placed it on her lap to look at the company's data.
"How tiring." Ye Shuang sighed with emotion. In fact, he himself didn't seem to have experienced such things less in the past.
Chen Qin gave Ye Shuang a sidelong glance with her beautiful eyes. "What can I do about being tired? Tens of thousands of people are waiting to be fed."
"It's a pity that someone is not willing to help me, leaving me, a little woman, to show up in public." She deliberately sighed with pretended sadness while secretly observing Ye Shuang's reaction.
"If I help you, will you be willing to let me manage the company?" Ye Shuang said jokingly.
Chen Qin immediately replied, "Of course. I'm not like Zhao Mengyao, who likes to take advantage of others' labor for free."
She stretched out a finger and gave a sweet smile. "I'll give you all my shares as a dowry."
"I can't afford the betrothal gifts."
"Just give eight thousand eight. It's an auspicious number."
Ye Shuang just smiled and didn't say much more.
When they arrived at the company, Ye Shuang drove the car directly into the parking lot of the building. Since it was already very late, there weren't many cars in the parking lot.
"Miss Chen, it's time to get out of the car." After parking the car, Ye Shuang said.
"Um, let me sit for a while. I'm a bit sleepy." Chen Qin was reluctant to part with the time of being alone with Ye Shuang. She just stared directly at Ye Shuang, looking a bit reluctant.
Ye Shuang just said, "I'll go up with you and help you deal with some documents."
Chen Qin's eyes immediately lit up as if they were shining with light. "Really?"
"Yes."
"Then let's go!"
"Aren't you saying that you're a bit sleepy and want to sit for a while?"
"I'm not sleepy anymore!"
After pressing the button for the 35th floor, Ye Shuang and Chen Qin took the elevator together. Although it was already off - work time, there were still many employees staying to work overtime.
The company's overtime allowance was quite high. Although the official off - work time was six o'clock, a buffet dinner would be provided starting from seven o'clock, the company car would provide pick - up and drop - off services starting from nine o'clock, and there would even be late - night snacks and desserts at ten o'clock. It was completely voluntary.
Ye Shuang and Chen Qin stood side by side. When some employees taking the elevator saw Chen Qin, they were all stunned for a moment.
"General Manager Chen."
"Um."
Chen Qin just nodded slightly to the employees. She wouldn't show the smiling little - girl look in front of others as she did in front of Ye Shuang. When those employees noticed Ye Shuang, they thought he was a leader of the management and didn't dare to think too much.
After arriving at the office, Chen Qin directly lay on the sofa and yawned. "I'm so sleepy. I don't want to work anymore!"
"Let's get to work." After Ye Shuang glanced at her lying posture, he moved a chair to the desk.
"Um, why do people have to go to work?"
"Even if you ask me... I don't know how to answer you."
Ye Shuang looked at the stack of materials beside the desk and casually asked, "Where is your assistant?"
"She's off work. Usually, she doesn't work 24 hours a day."
"How many assistants do you have?"
"Three. One of them is a manager from a branch company."
"You should have one who can be on standby 24 hours a day." After Ye Shuang sat down and flipped through the materials, he added, "Make me a cup of coffee."
Chen Qin said, "Wow, am I the boss or are you the boss?"
"Who asked you to look so reluctant to work? Don't you have to catch a flight at three o'clock? Finish your work earlier and get some rest. Relying only on those short naps during the car and plane rides will sooner or later wear your body out." Ye Shuang didn't care about Chen Qin's complaining look because he knew that she was just joking and was actually very happy inside.
"Okay, General Manager Ye~" Just as Ye Shuang thought, Chen Qin said coquettishly and then happily went to make coffee. If others saw this, they would definitely be shocked.
Just as Ye Shuang was looking at the proposal, there was a sudden knock on the office door.
Ye Shuang didn't think much about it and thought it was Chen Qin.
The next moment, the office door was pushed open, and then there came a surprised and confused voice, "Who are you?"
Ye Shuang looked up and found a man wearing gold - rimmed glasses. There was a trace of anger in the man's confusion. "Why are you here? Are you stealing the company's secrets?!"
[Character: Yang Wei. One of the deputy general managers of the group. He secretly sells the company's plans to Tianwei Group for personal gain...]
Ye Shuang retracted his gaze and continued to flip through the proposal materials on the computer, ignoring the man.
In the quiet office, there was only the clicking sound of Ye Shuang's mouse.
"Security, security!" Seeing that Ye Shuang actually ignored him, Yang Wei immediately widened his eyes and took out his phone to call the security guards up. "There's a thief who has sneaked into the office to steal things!"
But to Yang Wei's surprise, Ye Shuang remained motionless and didn't seem to care at all. The next second, Ye Shuang's voice also came,
"It's not certain who the thief is."
Yang Wei was stunned, and a strange feeling welled up in his heart. Did this person know something?
All of a sudden, Yang Wei's expression became serious. "Who exactly are you? Who sent you here?"
"General Manager Yang, why are you here?"
At this time, Chen Qin also walked in with two cups of coffee in her hands. Naturally, she had heard Yang Wei's shouting in the office.
When she saw Yang Wei there, she immediately frowned her willow - leaf eyebrows.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
