He rubbed his eyes and opened them. It was not an illusion. He rubbed them hard again and the tears came out.
He repeated this process several times, and every time he opened his eyes, the person before him did not vanish like a shadow. He was a real person.
"I can't be that unlucky, right …" Shi Yujing, who had confirmed that she was not dreaming and was on the verge of despair, really didn't expect that the person who had struggled with her for an entire night was her big boss.
It really was a blind cat running into a dead mouse, there was definitely something unexpected going on …
"Xi Si, let's go out first!" Cen Yunshi sized Shi Yujing up with a playful gaze, and took in the expressions of astonishment and despair that she seemed to have suffered from a rolling thunder attack. Her lips slightly hooked up, as her gaze passed past her body and landed behind her, he instructed Xi Si, who was accompanying her.
With a slight bow, Xi Si left the room without saying a word. He closed the door behind him and locked the two of them in a quiet space.
"I won't waste any more time, I signed this." Cen Yunshi did not like to beat around the bush, saying a bunch of useless opening remarks. He picked up a stack of documents placed on the side of the table, gently threw it in front of her.
Her words pulled Shi Yujing back her train of thoughts. When Shi Yujing heard that Cen Yunshi's first sentence did not say that he wanted to fire her, she calmed down a little. But when she heard her asking him to sign some documents, her heart leaped into his throat.
He leaned forward, his eyes looking down at the document. On the cover of the document were the words' Contract '.
Hm? It doesn't seem to be a termination letter or anything like that.
Her restless heart calmed down once again, and Shi Yujing raised her eyes with suspicion as she quickly sized up Cen Yunshi.
Both of his hands were placed on the armrests of the chair, his body leaned back, his ten fingers intertwined and pressed lightly against Shi Yujing's nose, a pair of eyes that had become wise after going through a long time in the mall, staring straight at Shi Yujing, his entire body gave off an imposing aura that could not be ignored, it was imposing and forceful.
His gaze seemed to be able to see through people, causing Shi Yujing's hair to stand on end. He did not dare be rash, and did not dare speak anymore.
She quickly picked up the document, flipped through it in front of her eyes, and quickly skimmed through the contents. The more she read, the angrier she got.
With the female warrior's personality, Shi Yujing had the thought of rejecting this contract.
"Cen Yunshi, even if you are the boss, you can't 'force a man to become a slave'!"
With a "pa" sound, Shi Yujing very boldly threw the contract book on the table.
"Oh?" Seeing her so courageous, Shi Yujing was a little surprised, but after thinking about it again, it was probably just this expert's method, who wanted to obtain more from him.
"Miss Shi Yujing, maybe I should call you miser and use all kinds of methods to get rich, isn't it just to satisfy your greedy nature? People are all vain. It just so happens that I lack a fiancée as a shield to complete my mission. Since you have the reward, why not? " With a slight raise of her eyebrows, Cen Yunshi analyzed the benefits that came with it.
Bullshit! Shi Yujing almost wanted to curse out at Cen Yunshi, but she endured it in the end. She glanced at the indenture contract, then shifted her gaze back to Cen Yunshi, who was determined to win.
She knew why he had chosen her. It was simply a matter of spending the night together, and being an employee of his.
However, most of the contents of the indenture contract were only for his benefit, and the terms that clearly stated that he was not allowed to do anything to her were never written out. Signing the contract would be extremely dangerous, and Shi Yujing was not an idiot, how could she easily agree to it?
Although Shi Yujing adored money, she also understood the principle of "the prince loves money but takes the dao". She earned every single cent by relying on her own ability and hard work.
To sell your principles for money, this is not Shi Yujing.
"Sorry, Boss, you should look for someone else!" Facing such tempting conditions, how many women dreamed of becoming Cen Yunshi's fiancee? Yet, he was pushed away so casually by Shi Yujing!
They wanted to capture him and use him to their advantage! Means, tricks! The smile on Cen Yunshi's face became wider, as he did not place the arrogant Shi Yujing in his eyes at all.
He never thought that he would meet a woman who knew how to play tricks and capture people's hearts. Cen Yunshi felt that it would be interesting to find her as his fiancee.
"Miss miser, if you don't agree, I will fire you. It's fine if there's one more small employee like you, but not one less. Also, I will order you to be banned. No one will hire you in the future." Cen Yunshi lowered his eyes, played with the pen in his hand, and spoke with an ice-cold tone, but his words were extremely shocking, deeply shaking Shi Yujing's heart.
She stopped in her tracks, frozen in place. Because she was too surprised at Cen Yunshi's methods, she was unable to react for a moment and was completely silent.
"Oh, I've heard that Miss Wealthy's money is all in her credit card! "I don't mind. I can help you pay them off!" To Cen Yunshi, freezing other people's bank cards and secretly transferring funds was just child's play.
"You!"
"I've signed it. It won't hurt you."
Not giving her any chance to flare up, the overbearing and overbearing Cen Yunshi pushed the contract book forward, forcing her to make a decision.
However, in truth, she had no other choice.
There was nothing to make a moneygrubber listen to better than take away what she cared about most.
Gritting her teeth, Shi Yujing looked at Cen Yunshi hatefully. What kind of woman does this man in front of him want? She had heard a lot about him.
Being provoked by her was really bad luck within bad luck.
After digesting the anger in her stomach, Shi Yujing calmed down and regained her rationality. She knew that she had no other choice, so she made a compromise.
"I can sign it, but when the contract is in effect, I have the right to raise the price." Nonsense, if he wanted her to do something that was out of bounds, she would be the one to lose. She wouldn't be able to get even a single cent.
Of course, the reason she proposed this point was to prevent Cen Yunshi from making an excessive request.
"Alright." Without thinking, Cen Yunshi readily agreed to her request.
"And …"
Initially, Cen Yunshi thought that she only had one condition, he did not care about how much money he would give her, but he did not care about the conditions just now. Giving her enough money would solve the problem, it was not worth it for him to waste his time thinking.
Shi Yujing, who was minding her own business, did not notice the change in Cen Yunshi's expression and continued to speak, "If you want to stay at your house as your fiancee or anything like that, I will drag you out with me." Leaving Shi Hedong alone at home, Shi Yujing was still worried the entire time.
If he sold himself this lot, it might even be a prison in disguise. When would it be the end? She had to keep Shi Hedong by her side.
"Alright."
Hearing this, she thought that she had made some excessive request. He had investigated Shi Yujing's background and only she and her brother were left in the family.
In fact, the reason why he chose her was because there was another story behind it. The world was vast and Cen Yunshi never thought that he would meet Shi Yujing in his entire life.
Receiving his guarantee, Shi Yujing calmly pressed the recording button on the phone in her pocket, calmly walked to the table, found a pen, and straightforwardly signed her name.
"Go home and pack up. Move over to Imperial Garden today. Xi Si will help when he gets back. Also, someone will be teaching you what to do in the Imperial Garden." Taking the contract letter and looking at it in satisfaction, Cen Yunshi called for the man called Xi Si to come in. He ordered lightly, as if he was the owner.
"What about my job?" She was ordered right after signing her name, Shi Yujing was dumbfounded.
"Keep it with pay. Playing my fiancée is your new job. I'll give you a long leave of absence."
"Ugh …"
Big Boss' efficiency was something that Shi Yujing could not help but admire.
Since Cen Yunshi had made all the arrangements, Shi Yujing went home without any worries, and explained the situation to him. After packing up the items, Shi Yujing did not have many things, and would always come back to stay in the future. Shi Yujing then paid a year's rent for the house, which she kept, and got into Xi Si's car after taking a few sets of clothes.
In the car, the atmosphere was heavy, the three were speechless. Shi Hedong had found out that his sister was going to pretend to be her fiancee, although he had forgotten many of the details and did not tell her about it, but he could guess that there was something fishy about it.
"Sis, is there a need to do this for me?" Shi Hedong knew very well that he was the one who had dragged Shi Yujing down.
Shi Yujing, who was sitting beside him, was silent for a moment. Then, she slowly reached out his hand and covered the back of Shi Hedong's hand.
"I have my own principles. You know, it was just an accident. I was helpless." After she finished speaking, her eyes glanced at Xi Si who was in the driver's seat in front of him. She didn't see anything strange from the rearview mirror, but Shi Yujing was still worried that he would tell Cen Yunshi what she had said.
For Shi Hedong's sake, she could only throw caution to the wind.
Back then, he had held Shi Yujing's hand. Shi Hedong turned his head and frowned, looking at her with determined eyes. The message in his eyes was that he would protect her.
Immediately, Shi Yujing's heart felt warm. In this world, perhaps only Shi Hedong was left, the only person who could trust and care for him.
"We're here."
Just as they were deep in thought, the car had already stopped. Carrying their backpacks, the two of them got off the car, stunned by the magnificent and unique building that Cen Yunshi was talking about.
Sure enough, the capitalists were all vampires. This place, the rental house they lived in, was simply a paradise, a hell. Shi Yujing disdained Cen Yunshi in her heart.
"Madam, please come in."
"Ugh …" "Alright." Shi Yujing looked at Xi Si who had changed his words in fear. Shi Yujing wanted to correct him, but in the end, he was still in name and silently swallowed his words.
