After Ye Feng was forcibly dragged into the Su Corporation by Su Yuxin, the surrounding employees couldn't help but gawk in surprise. Everyone knew that the girl pulling Ye Feng was the daughter of the company's president, Su Wanli, who was known to be a doting father. Su Yuxin was the apple of Su Wanli's eye, someone he cherished so much that he was afraid she might break if he held her too tightly.
But the scene before them left everyone dumbfounded. An unfamiliar man was being led by the hand by Su Yuxin, walking around the company. If Su Wanli were to see this, Ye Feng would likely be skinned alive.
"Big Brother, this is the Su Corporation."
Su Yuxin stopped in front of a manager's office, but she didn't let go of Ye Feng's hand, perhaps intentionally.
"Big Brother, which position are you applying for? I can take you straight to the manager."
Seeing Su Yuxin's adorable smile, Ye Feng also noticed something was off. Ever since this little girl brought him into the Su Corporation, the eyes of the people around them hadn't left him. This made Ye Feng feel increasingly uneasy.
"Big Brother, what are you good at? I'll call the manager..."
Su Yuxin flitted around Ye Feng like a little shadow. Just as she was halfway through her sentence, Ye Feng interrupted her.
"Excuse me, little sister, may I ask your name?"
"Ah!"
Su Yuxin suddenly realized she hadn't properly introduced herself to Ye Feng since they met. She quickly let go of his hand and placed both hands on her chest.
Su Yuxin, how could you be so careless! The first time you met, you failed to exchange names with Big Brother due to your own carelessness. And now, you're still acting so recklessly. What impression must Big Brother have of you?
Su Yuxin hurriedly bowed repeatedly to Ye Feng in apology. "I... I'm sorry, Big Brother! I haven't introduced myself to you yet. My rudeness is truly unforgivable!"
"It's okay, little sister. You don't need to be so formal."
Ye Feng quickly waved his hand to stop her, while Su Yuxin's cheeks flushed as she gazed at Ye Feng's face.
Big Brother is so handsome, I could look at him forever...
"Please allow me to introduce myself, Big Brother."
Su Yuxin held the sides of her skirt and curtsied gracefully, her posture so perfect that Ye Feng could already guess the identity of this little girl.
"My name is Su Yuxin, the daughter of the president of Su Corporation. Nice to meet you~"
Indeed!
When Ye Feng heard the name Su Yuxin, he felt a surge of joy. Without a doubt, this girl in front of him was the Su Yuxin from the system's mission.
"Hello, Su Yuxin. My name is..."
Before Ye Feng could finish his introduction, a thunderous roar echoed through the company lobby.
"Yuxin! Where are you, Yuxin?"
The booming voice filled the entire hall. Ye Feng turned to see a burly, menacing man frantically searching around in panic.
"Fa... Father?"
Su Yuxin trembled at the sight of Su Wanli. She had never seen her father in such a frantic state. Su Wanli had always been a gentle and caring father in her eyes, and this was the first time she had seen him so discomposed.
When Su Wanli heard his precious daughter's voice in the quiet lobby, he turned and spotted Su Yuxin standing with Ye Feng. Despite his heavy boots, he rushed over swiftly.
Seeing the imposing figure of Su Wanli, Ye Feng sensed something was amiss and quickly stepped back to create a safe distance. He had no intention of getting into a conflict with someone who looked so dangerous.
"Yuxin, you scared me half to death!"
Su Wanli first shot an impatient glance at Ye Feng beside Su Yuxin, then, after confirming that his daughter was unharmed, he finally relaxed as a father.
"How could you bring a stranger into the company? Have you met him before?"
"Yes, I have! Big Brother is very nice~"
Su Yuxin tried to step around her father to get a better look at Ye Feng, as she still didn't know his name.
But Su Wanli deliberately blocked her path, keeping a watchful eye on Ye Feng. Only when he saw Ye Feng's calm and composed gaze did he relax a bit.
This kid... is he really as steady-minded as Old Li said?
"You're Ye Feng?"
"Yes, Mr. Su, nice to meet you."
Ye Feng noticed that Su Wanli's hostility towards him had suddenly diminished, though he wasn't sure why. Nevertheless, this was a good thing. Any additional conflict would be detrimental to his mission.
"Not bad, you're an interesting fellow."
Su Wanli locked eyes with Ye Feng, but instead of avoiding the gaze, Ye Feng met it head-on. From his unwavering demeanor, it was clear that Ye Feng was a man of integrity.
Where did Old Li find this gem? I almost doubt this kid is even from around here. Such composure is rare among ordinary people.
"Eh? Ye... Ye Feng?"
Su Yuxin, who had been excited earlier, perked up at the mention of Ye Feng's name. Now, she had officially met Big Brother Ye Feng!
However, as she thought back, she suddenly realized something was off! Ye Feng wasn't just any stranger—he was Li Mucheng's tutor!
Su Yuxin's smile froze, and her gaze on Ye Feng became clouded...
How... how could it be like this? How...
"I called you here today for no other reason than to see if you're really as remarkable as Old Li claims. Now, it seems true that heroes are born of youth."
"Mr. Su, you flatter me. I'm just an ordinary worker, doing what I can to make a living."
"Good man. Since that's the case, you young folks can chat. I have an urgent meeting to attend. I'll talk to you later, how about that?"
"No problem, Mr. Su."
Ye Feng nodded in agreement. At least he had some time to chat with Su Yuxin, which would help him lay the groundwork for his upcoming kidnapping mission. His current goal was to build a good relationship with Su Yuxin.
"Then I'll take my leave. Yuxin? You were so excited earlier, why so quiet now?"
Su Wanli found his daughter's silence puzzling, but after a few reassuring words, he left the lobby, confident that his daughter was safe. After all, Old Li had personally vetted Ye Feng. What were the chances this kid would kidnap his daughter? Preposterous.
After Su Wanli left, everything returned to normal. Ye Feng, however, found Su Yuxin's behavior unsettling. Her expressionless face was a stark contrast to her earlier sunny and lively demeanor.
