"Youâre looking for the president?" Zhou Siqiâs eyes flashed with curiosity as she looked at Ye Luo.
"Hmm."
Ye Luo nodded, following which Zhou Siqi led him towards an office inside.
Outside the office was a sign that read Presidentâs Office, clearly indicating that this was Ling Qingyaâs workplace.
However, before Zhou Siqi could knock on the door, Ye Luo twisted the handle and walked right in, causing Zhou Siqiâs face to change.
"Wife!"
As Ye Luo walked in, he called out directly, making Zhou Siqi swallow back the words she was about to say, her face full of shock.
The office was decorated in an elegant and generous manner, with a touch of simplicity, giving it a comfortable feel. Ling Qingya was sitting behind the immense desk, her expression solemn.
Seeing Ye Luo come in, her face darkened, and she glanced at Zhou Siqi, "Siqi, you can leave us."
"Yes, President."
Zhou Siqiâs face went through several changes, and she nodded, casting a glance at Ye Luo before turning to walk out and closing the door behind her.
"Ye Luo, Iâm warning you again, if you call me wife inside the company again, no matter what Grandpa says, Iâll have you leave the company immediately."
Ling Qingyaâs face was cold, with a powerful aura of a strong woman, she firmly stated, her gaze fixed on him.
"This... well, then Iâll just call you Qing Ya or Ling Qingya then," Ye Luo replied.
"You can only call me President. Even though you are nominally my fiancĂ©, here at Ling Corporation youâre an employee, and you should address me as President like everyone else does, or else you can just leave," Ling Qingya said coolly, her face showing a hint of frost.
"Alright, President, what job are you assigning to me? Grandpa said any deputy head position would do. Iâm not asking for much, just make me a vice president, that would match well with you."
Ye Luo looked at Ling Qingya and pursed his lips as he spoke.
"Iâve already arranged the position. You can start right away."
"What position?" Ye Luo asked, full of curiosity.
"Vice Chief of the Security Department at Ling Corporation."
"What? Being a security guard!"
Instantly, Ye Luo was stunned; the position he was given turned out to be that of a security guard.
"Vice Chief of the Security Department," Ling Qingya reiterated firmly.
"But thatâs still a security guard, and even then, a deputy one."
Ye Luo wore a look of disbelief, yet faced Ling Qingya with a radiant smile, saying, "But... President, look at how handsome and capable I am. Being a security guard seems a bit wasteful of my talents, maybe..."
"Right now, the only positions available at Ling Corporation are Vice Chief of the Security Department and janitor. Which one would you choose?" Ling Qingya asked with an icy gaze.
"That... letâs go with Vice Chief of the Security Department," Ye Luo finally chose, realizing it was at least better than being a janitor. After all, it was still an official position.
At that moment, Ling Qingya pressed a button on the phone on her desk and said, "Siqi, come in, please."
Soon the office door opened, and Zhou Siqi walked in, addressing Ling Qingya, "President, did you need me?"
"This is Ye Luo, the newly-appointed Vice Chief of the Security Department. Take him to report to the Security Department," Ling Qingya instructed directly.
"Vice Chief?"
Zhou Siqiâs eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment as she looked at Ye Luo. Wasnât he the presidentâs husband? How did he become a part of the security department?
"Okay, President."
But Zhou Siqi didnât think too much of it, nodded, and watched Ye Luo walk out.
"Goodbye, Madam President."
Ye Luo waved at Ling Qingya and then walked out.
Watching Ye Luo leave, Ling Qingyaâs bright, starry eyes gazed at a document in her hand, flickering with complex emotions, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
And this document was the project proposal for cooperation between Ling Corporation and Mingzhu Group.
After leaving the office, Zhou Siqi looked at Ye Luo with a curious expression and asked, "Whatâs really going on between you and the president? Are you truly the presidentâs husband?"
"Of course, genuine as can be," Ye Luo quickly nodded in confirmation.
"Then why would the president have you go to the security department?"
"Itâs quite simple. In this company, sheâs in charge of the highest matters, so naturally, I should take care of the lowest ones. Plus, it stops people from saying Iâm living off a woman, doesnât it?" Ye Luo explained in all seriousness.
"Oh."
Zhou Siqiâs pure heart was easily deceived by Ye Luo, but as soon as she remembered the intimate incident with the presidentâs husband in the elevator just a moment ago, she felt a wave of bashfulness wash over her.
Following Zhou Siqi to the ground floor of the group, they arrived at the security department.
The security department of Ling Corporation was responsible for the entire groupâs security, staffed by more than thirty people, all under the charge of the head of the department, Hou Dayong.
At that moment, Hou Dayong was leisurely reading a magazine in his office, his eyes fixating on the sexy models filling the pages, his throat continually moving.
Bang bang!
Just then, the door to the office was knocked on, and Hou Dayong quickly tucked away the magazine, putting on a serious face and calling out, "Come in."
Immediately, Zhou Siqi walked in, and catching sight of the beautiful woman, Hou Dayongâs eyes fleetingly revealed a lascivious glint, which he quickly masked, standing up with a smile and saying, "Secretary Zhou, what brings you here?"
"Chief Hou, Iâm here on the presidentâs orders to bring the new vice chief of the security department to take up his position," Zhou Siqi said.
"Vice Chief of the security department?"
Hou Dayong looked surprised. The position of vice chief of the security department had been vacant for a long time; the whole department was under his sole control. How could there suddenly be a new vice chief?
"Vice Chief Ye, this is Chief Hou of the security department."
Zhou Siqi introduced Ye Luo, who was standing beside her, while Hou Dayongâs gaze swept toward Ye Luo. Seeing the quiet, thin figure, he was filled with perplexity, wondering why such a person had been appointed as vice chief of the security department, but since it was a directive from the president, he dared not oppose it.
"Vice Chief Ye, hello, my name is Hou Dayong."
"Chief Hou, you can just call me Ye Luo. I look forward to your guidance in the future," said Ye Luo, his mouth curving into a faint smile.
"Alright, alright," Hou Dayong nodded, his eyes shimmering with a trace of peculiarity.
"If thatâs the case, Iâll take my leave first," Zhou Siqi glanced at Ye Luo and then walked out of the office.
"Boss! Huge news!"
At that moment, a figure rushed into the office from outside, skinny, wearing a security uniform that seemed rather comical.
"Whatâs the matter, making such a fuss over nothing?"
Hou Dayong looked at him with a cold rebuke.
