"This...."President Lan Xin's face looked somewhat ugly. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Apologizing to Yan Mingyu was one thing, she was several ranks above her, and it wouldn't be shameful if the news got out.

But what was Qin Yu?

He was nothing but a dog by Yan Mingyu's side. Apologizing to him, didn't she care about her own dignity?

"President Yan....no, no need!"

Yan Mingyu had already touched Qin Yu by standing up for him, how could he dare to let President Lan Xin apologize.

"..."

Yan Mingyu didn't speak but looked at President Lan Xin with cold eyes.

"Fine...I apologize. Qin...Mr. Qin, I'm sorry!"

President Lan Xin gritted her teeth, succumbed to Yan Mingyu's intense pressure, and eventually apologized to Qin Yu.

Her chest was slightly heaving, clearly, she was not at peace.

"Alright, President Lan, let's talk about the contract signing some other time. Qin Yu, Su Meng, let's go!"

Yan Mingyu took her gaze off President Lan Xin and casually dropped a line before walking away.

Qin Yu and Su Meng immediately followed.

They entered the elevator.

Qin Yu looked at Yan Mingyu's flawless profile, his voice somewhat hoarse, "President Yan, thank you!"

"Thank me for what? I've told you, dignity is priceless!"

Yan Mingyu said lightly, then added, "Moreover, just like Su Meng, your every action represents the company. Protecting you is also protecting the face of the company!"

"President Yan, having a boss like you is our fortune!"

Su Meng also spoke with emotion.

Today, it was Qin Yu who was humiliated. What if next time, it was herself?

"Su Meng, Qin Yu, remember this. As long as you are employees of the company, the one backing you up is the entire Four Seas Corporation!"

"Ding-dong...."

The moment Yan Mingyu's words ended, the elevator doors opened.

A deliveryman in a yellow outfit, full of sweat, jogged in. With Bluetooth earphones on, he kept apologizing profusely, "Sorry, so sorry, I am delivering for Lan Xin Cosmetics, I will rush to your neighborhood immediately!"

When they reached the parking garage.

The deliveryman jogged to his electric scooter and sped out of the garage like the wind.

"Delivery guys really have it tough! When I order takeout, even if they're a few minutes late, I wouldn't say anything!"

Su Meng couldn't help but express her feelings.

"..."

Yan Mingyu lightly pursed her lips, a year ago, when she and that "husband" got their marriage certificate, he was wearing a yellow delivery uniform.

Only, no matter how hard she tried to remember, she could never clearly recall his face.

Maybe....

Last night he wasn't playing disappearing act, maybe he was just too busy delivering orders and completely missed her message?

Thinking this, Yan Mingyu decided to visit the village in the city again in a while, to have a good talk with that "husband."

As for safety concerns, it's simple, just dress down a bit more and disguise as an "ugly woman" again.

The following days were busier than ever for Yan Mingyu.

Having caused a rift with Lan Xin Cosmetics, it was essential to find new distribution partners.

Qin Yu, as both driver and bodyguard, although feeling tired, also felt fulfilled.

Until, a piece of gossip started circulating within Four Seas Corporation.

It said that there was an improper relationship between Yan Mingyu and Qin Yu, otherwise why out of so many Class A security personnel, was he the one chosen?

Dammit....

Who was spreading these rumors?

When this news reached Qin Yu's ears, he was both angry and uneasy.

Worried that because of him, Yan Mingyu's reputation would be damaged. He was also concerned that, with rumors abound, would Yan Mingyu fire him?

"Qin Yu, guess what I have here?"

After coming out from Yan Mingyu's office, Su Meng waved a folder in her hand.

"I don't know!"

Qin Yu shook his head, slightly distracted.

"The company is going to lay off a few people, here's the list!"

Su Meng blinked her eyes, all mysterious.

"Ah... I'm on it too, right?"

Qin Yu's expression turned bitter.

He was still drowning in debt, and if he got laid off, where would he find such a good job again?

"Hehe, you're so dedicated to your work, why would Yan Mingyu fire you? It's Chen Bin, and another vice-president..."

Su Meng said with a smile, glanced around, and continued, "I'm going to send you another video, it's explosive!"

"Err... okay!"

Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, his job was safe for now.

"Delete it after you watch it, okay!"

With a few taps on her phone, Su Meng, her slender fingers moving quickly, left the office clutching a folder.

"What kind of video is it?"

After opening the video on his phone, Qin Yu saw it was of President Lan Xin and a vice president of Four Seas Corporation entering a hotel to book a room.

The thing was, both of them were married!

If the video got out, not only would their reputations be ruined, but it would also turn their homes upside down, right?

After watching the video, Qin Yu instinctively glanced at Yan Mingyu's tightly closed office door.

Who else but her could have gotten hold of such a video?

It seemed that beneath her ravishing beauty lay a heart capable of decisive cruelty!

Evening came.

Qin Yu clocked out from work.

These days, Yan Mingyu had been driving herself home.

Soon after, Qin Yu arrived back at his rental house.

Just as he reached the door, he heard some not-so-child-friendly noises coming from inside.

"This idiot, even saving money on getting a room!"

Qin Yu shook his head speechlessly.

He might as well go to the bank and transfer the money he had recently saved to his creditor.

Half an hour later...

A tall figure appeared at the door of the rental house.

Wearing black-rimmed glasses, a baseball cap, and sporting a few conspicuous freckles on her face.

She glanced at the yellow delivery uniform hanging in the yard before she tentatively knocked on the door with her teeth clenched.

"Knock knock..."

"Coming!"

A man dressed in a tank top and huge shorts opened the door, looking puzzled at the woman outside: "You are...?"

"...."

Yan Mingyu struggled to overlap the man in front of her with the image of her "husband" in her memory.

However, all she could remember from that time was his conspicuous yellow delivery uniform.

After a moment of silence, she finally asked from the side, "Is that delivery uniform in the yard yours?"

"Mhm!"

The man nodded.

That settled it!

It seemed he was indeed her "husband."

As Yan Mingyu looked at the man before her, like a stranger to her, and just as she thought about suggesting they go out for a meal to talk...

A woman's voice came from inside the house, "Big head, who is it?"

Then, a pretty girl wearing a loose T-shirt, her long white legs exposed, hooked her arm around the man's.

"You guys..."

Yan Mingyu's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of coldness.

Hah, it had only been a year.

Had this "husband" of hers been so eager to find someone new already?
