Chapter 202
Yun Youyou answered proudly, “My mission is extremely important. I’m responsible for monitoring safety within a designated area. I’m a supervisor.”
Jiang Mixue was surprised.
“That impressive?”
What kind of senior position was that?
Yun Youyou did not get a chance to answer.
Fu Yiming walked out of the building.
When he saw Yun Youyou standing with Jiang Mixue, he paused slightly and slowed his steps.
“You know her?”
Fu Yiming frowned as he questioned his Secretary.
Jiang Mixue nodded. “That’s right. She’s a good friend of mine.”
Fu Yiming looked Yun Youyou over several times before turning back to Jiang Mixue.
“How did you get to know one of the Company’s security guards?”
Jiang Mixue: ???
Her head filled with question marks as she pointed at Yun Youyou in astonishment. “She’s a security guard?”
Fu Yiming said, “You didn’t know?”
Jiang Mixue replied blankly, “She did say she was responsible for monitoring safety in a designated area. I thought she was some kind of bodyguard. I never expected her to be…”
Yun Youyou said, “They’re basically the same. Bodyguards are a little bolder, security guards a little quieter. No real difference.”
Jiang Mixue: ……
She had never heard a ghost explain it that way before.
Fu Yiming checked his watch. “As it happens, my driver had an emergency today and took the day off. You can fill in for him and drive.”
Yun Youyou’s radar went off.
You want me to work overtime? Not a chance!
Yun Youyou firmly rejected the leader’s unreasonable request.
“I’m not an on-the-clock beast of burden anymore. I’m a wild donkey off the clock.”
Once she was off work, she wouldn’t acknowledge her own family, let alone her boss.
Fu Yiming raised an eyebrow in surprise.
He still didn’t know whether Yun Youyou was human or ghost.
But if she was a ghost, her acting was far too convincing. She actually made him feel as though he were exploiting an ordinary worker.
Fu Yiming didn’t bother with empty words. He asked directly, “Your name is Yun Youyou, right?”
Yun Youyou watched him warily.
“Even if you know my name, I will never surrender.”
Fu Yiming didn’t get angry. Instead, he said, “I read the transcript from the security conference today.”
Yun Youyou: ……
Uh-oh. She had a bad feeling about this.
“Your remarks were certainly memorable. I thought they were excellent, especially the way you demonstrated the relationship between batons and ketchup. It was deeply enlightening.”
Now Yun Youyou was certain.
That despicable President Fu had really read every last word of her speech.
“It would be a shame if I were the only one to see such an excellent speech. As luck would have it, the conference room has video recordings. I’ll put your pearls of wisdom on a loop across the Company’s giant screen so everyone can study them properly.”
Yun Youyou: ……
What a vicious man.
The giant Company screen he mentioned was nearly three or four stories tall, and in ultra-high definition too.
If the recording really played there, how could she ever show her face in the Ghost Realm again?
All her mystique would be gone.
Fu Yiming waited at his leisure to see how Yun Youyou would respond.
Naturally, Yun Youyou didn’t disappoint him.
“There is absolutely no way I’m working overtime.”
Fu Yiming looked at her in surprise.
The next second, Yun Youyou changed her tune.
“But how could driving President Fu somewhere count as overtime? It’s just a tiny favor. No big deal at all!”
Yun Youyou smiled sweetly.
She even obsequiously opened the car door for President Fu.
“President Fu, please get in. I wouldn’t want to hold you up.”
Her voice might have been sweet, but in her heart, she had already sentenced Fu Yiming to death.
Hmph. Go ahead and exploit me all you want right now.
Just wait until I turn into a vicious ghost and scare you to death!
Fu Yiming glanced at her and asked with a half-smile, “Cursing me in your head?”
Yun Youyou immediately denied it. “How could I possibly?”
I don’t just want to curse you. I want to beat you to death too, you vile capitalist!
Fu Yiming chuckled. Whether he believed her or not was anyone’s guess.
Yun Youyou obediently sat in the driver’s seat and prepared to set off.
Fortunately, the navigation worked well enough today and didn’t send them to the crematorium again.
Yun Youyou was almost a little disappointed.
The car soon pulled up outside a luxury hotel.
A doorman came over and opened the rear door.
After a moment’s thought, Fu Yiming said to Yun Youyou, “You should come up too.”
Yun Youyou looked mildly surprised. “I’m going up as well?”
“Yes.”
Yun Youyou exchanged a glance with Jiang Mixue, then got out and followed them into the hotel.
Fu Yiming’s reasoning was simple.
Who knew whether this was a trap disguised as a banquet?
He might not know whether Yun Youyou was friend or foe, but at least she looked relatively normal, unlike a vicious ghost liable to fly into a murderous rage at any moment.
The beautiful elevator attendant selected their floor for them.
The round, transparent panoramic elevator slowly ascended.
Ding!
They reached their floor.
Fu Yiming stepped out first.
Yun Youyou and Jiang Mixue followed behind him.
The young waitress opened the door to their private room.
Yun Youyou glanced inside and found a group of balding, potbellied older men.
The sparse hair on their heads was even thinner than her paycheck.
For a moment, Yun Youyou couldn’t decide whether to pity herself or them.
If she absolutely had to choose between a decent paycheck and a full head of hair, Yun Youyou would rather reign supreme in the hair department.
“President Fu, you’ve finally arrived. We’ve been waiting for you for ages.”
The older man seated by the door rose enthusiastically, his beer belly wobbling several times in the air.
Yun Youyou looked at him, then at her own president.
At least the Game had some humanity and assigned her a handsome superior.
“President Fu, since you’re already here, why did you bring two such beautiful secretaries along?”
The man’s lecherous gaze roamed over Yun Youyou and Jiang Mixue.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Merely a work necessity.”
Fu Yiming casually stepped to the side, positioning himself directly in front of Yun Youyou and Jiang Mixue.
Everyone took their seats.
The waitstaff began serving the food.
“President Fu, have some wine.”
Everyone enthusiastically urged Fu Yiming to drink.
Unable to refuse them outright, he picked up the bottle of red wine and was about to pour a little into his own glass.
Just then, the older man from before suddenly cried, “Hey, hey! How could we let President Fu pour his own wine? Someone of your status should have a subordinate do it for you!”
His gaze swept over everyone before finally settling on Yun Youyou.
“You. Go pour some wine for President Fu.”
Yun Youyou: ……
So after all that, she was the lowlife of high society.
She was the lowest-ranking person here, huh?
The older man deliberately smiled. “What? Not happy about it?”
Yun Youyou smiled too.
“Of course not. I’m happy for you.”
The older man didn’t understand. “What do you mean?”
Yun Youyou said, “It’s a good thing I came. If I hadn’t, wouldn’t you have had to do it?”
Once the older man understood, his expression instantly darkened.
Yun Youyou smiled even more brightly.
She simply took the bottle and poured a glass for everyone present.
