Beautiful CEO's Top Expert

Chapter 5: Chapter 0005: What a Small World



Early in the morning, a ray of sunlight rose from the far east, piercing through layers of clouds to shine upon the earth, dispersing the rotten smell left by the night.

Ye Xunhuan came out of the bedroom just in time to see Ms. Wang carrying dishes out from the kitchen.

"Son-in-law, you're up!" Seeing Ye Xunhuan, Ms. Wang's face lit up with a sincere smile, "Please, sit down and have some breakfast!"

Ms. Wang was Qiu Ruoxi's nanny, responsible for her daily meals and living arrangements.

Ye Xunhuan had heard from Ms. Wang that she had been with Qiu Ruoxi for ten years, a revered elder and confidante by her side.

"Hmm!" Ye Xunhuan nodded and glanced upstairs.

Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan's action, Ms. Wang chuckled and said, "Son-in-law, the young mistress hasn't come down yet."

Since Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi had married, Ms. Wang had observed everything about the couple and knew they were like a joyfully quarrelsome pair, always bickering upon meeting!

However, as a servant, she felt it was not her place to comment.

After all, in Huaxia, there was a keen observance of the "superiority and inferiority" hierarchy!

Even though Ms. Wang had been with Qiu Ruoxi for many years, she was ultimately a servant, and there were boundaries she should not cross.

Ms. Wang was very aware of this rule.

Ye Xunhuan said nothing, just sat down directly by the dining table.

Just at that moment, Qiu Ruoxi descended the stairs slowly in a silver-grey business suit.

The woman still wore a rigid, expressionless face, as if everyone owed her money.

After reaching the dining table, Qiu Ruoxi coldly glanced at Ye Xunhuan and said, "You're reporting to my company today!"

Ye Xunhuan, who was drinking milk, paused after hearing Qiu Ruoxi's sudden remark, "Why?"

"To work!" Qiu Ruoxi said coldly.

"To work at your company?"

"Or do you plan to find a job elsewhere?" Qiu Ruoxi said with some disdain, "With your looks, apart from my place, which company would want you!"

"Don't look down on people!" Ye Xunhuan suddenly got upset, "With this physique of mine, I'm telling you, every nightclub in Jiangzhong City would fight to have me, those wealthy women…"

"Shut your mouth!" Qiu Ruoxi snapped coldly, "Finish your breakfast and come to the office for your report. If you dare not show up, you'll face the consequences!"

Having interacted for a month, how could Qiu Ruoxi not guess what Ye Xunhuan was about to say? He was just alluding to finding a sugar mommy to sugarfoot his way into money and fun.

For such a shamelessly dishonorable guy, Qiu Ruoxi held him in utter contempt.

Moreover, even if Qiu Ruoxi had a strong aversion to Ye Xunhuan in her heart, she couldn't possibly let him go work in nightclubs among old ladies, right? After all, if something happened and others noted he was her husband, it would embarrass her immensely.

Of course, if it were just for fun, Qiu Ruoxi wouldn't have said much.

"You don't plan to have me come to the office, then play with me under the guise of being the boss, do you?" Ye Xunhuan's eyes shifty, "If so, let me tell you, don't even think about it. I won't go!"

"Dare not to go!" Qiu Ruoxi said assertively, "Try not showing up at the office today and see what happens!"

With that, Qiu Ruoxi's icy stare drilled into Ye Xunhuan, as if warning him!

Ye Xunhuan remained utterly dismissive of this.

Qiu Ruoxi didn't say much else and just lowered her head to eat.

After finishing breakfast, Qiu Ruoxi left the villa without hesitation.

After Qiu Ruoxi had left, Ms. Wang looked at Ye Xunhuan and said, "Son-in-law, as a servant, there are things I shouldn't say..."

"What servant or not servant." Ye Xunhuan waved his hand and said, "In my heart, you are an elder, you can just speak directly."

Ye Xunhuan had great respect for Mother Wang.

After all, she had been with Qiu Ruoxi for such a long time, facing a stoic face every day was not easy.

Of course, that was not the main reason why Ye Xunhuan respected her.

Even though Mother Wang was a servant, she was very good to Ye Xunhuan—genuinely so, treating him like a son-in-law of her own family.

This was also why Mother Wang liked Ye Xunhuan. Although this son-in-law did not satisfy Qiu Ruoxi, she was very pleased with him—subdued, reserved, the only downside was that he was a bit quirky.

But, he was young after all, which was understandable.

"Son-in-law, just listen to the young lady and report to the company!" Mother Wang said earnestly.

"Why?"

"Son-in-law, in a couple of days, the lord and lady will come, and if by then you still have nothing to do all day, the lord and lady will definitely be angry; they'll think the young lady isn't letting you go to the company..."

"Is she afraid of being scolded?" Ye Xunhuan's lips slowly curved into a smile.

Mother Wang nodded, "And if you go work in the company and achieve something, the young lady will definitely think more highly of you. By then, wouldn't your relationship not be like it is now?"

Having been with Qiu Ruoxi for so long, Mother Wang knew that Qiu Ruoxi was a very competitive woman. The prince of her dreams might not be a hero, but he wouldn't be like Ye Xunhuan either.

But fate plays tricks on people—the more you want something, the less likely God is to give it to you.

Ye Xunhuan pondered for a moment, "Alright, then I'll go check out the company!"

When Mother Wang heard that Ye Xunhuan agreed to go to Emperor Map Company, the smile on her face became even more pronounced.

"But, Mother Wang, I'm only going for your sake!"

"I know, I know!" Mother Wang said laughingly.

Subsequently, Ye Xunhuan left the villa and headed towards Emperor Map Group.

By the time Ye Xunhuan leisurely arrived at Emperor Map Company, it was almost ten o'clock, and all the working people had already started their busy day.

Although he had been married to Qiu Ruoxi for over a month, Ye Xunhuan had never really been to Qiu Ruoxi's Emperor Map Group before—this was actually his first time.

Looking up at the towering skyscraper in front of him, the corners of Ye Xunhuan's mouth slightly lifted—his frugal wife sure had a substantial family base!

With that, Ye Xunhuan walked confidently into the building!

The lobby was spacious, and the luxurious marble floor reflected the crystal chandeliers hanging high above. The bright light poured down like mercury, evenly scattering to every corner. Walking through the lobby, a sense of superiority emerged as if strolling above the heavens.

Inside the modern, streamlined reception, the lovely receptionist smiled at Ye Xunhuan asking, "Hello, sir. Welcome to Emperor Map Group. How may I assist you?"

"I'm here to see your president, Qiu Ruoxi!"

Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan's words, the receptionist was filled with surprise, but still smiled, "Do you have an appointment with President Qiu?"

"Yes, she invited me. My surname is Ye!"

Seeing Ye Xunhuan's confident demeanor, the receptionist said with a professional smile, "Please wait a moment, I'll ask President Qiu!"

After getting confirmation, the receptionist then took Ye Xunhuan in the elevator towards the upstairs office.

As soon as Ye Xunhuan walked into Qiu Ruoxi's office, he immediately saw two women sitting on the couch in the meeting area inside the office.

One of them was undoubtedly Qiu Ruoxi, but when Ye Xunhuan clearly saw the woman sitting next to Qiu Ruoxi, he immediately widened his eyes in disbelief!

Damn, what a small world!
