“Software developnt, a new online company platform” was a very new thing to begin with. Not only had the Shi Corporation never co into contact with it, but even many other companies that occupied a place in the internet industry weren’t very familiar with this either.

Hence, ever since Yuan An was established, a lot of money had flowed out, but there were very few returns. There were loopholes in all aspects and many shareholders had already expressed their dissatisfaction, but Shi Xiao still insisted on his decision.

Finally, in the two months since Shi Xiao went to Africa, a problem arose.

Many factions began to target Yuan An and used it as a breakthrough point to topple the Shi Corporation. They hoped that they could use this to annex the market that the Shi Corporation occupied in the country, and they hoped that they could obtain the technology that Yuan An had mastered.

Even though Yuan Shu stabilized Yuan An’s company for the ti being, the company’s developnt was still unsatisfactory. Ever since Shi Xiao returned, he had been dealing with Yuan An’s company’s matters, and there were still many problems.

As Zhao Mian looked at her extrely tired boss, she couldn’t help but say, “Young Master, you haven’t slept for almost three nights, so you should rest. These can…”

Shi Xiao interrupted her. “It’s okay. Tell .”

Shi Xiao’s tone was quite gentle when speaking to his right-hand man of many years.

Of course, he knew that Zhao Mian was concerned about him, but there were too many problems in the corporation now. Previously, in order to deal with his family’s matters, he had already delayed things for a long ti, so he had to use this period of ti to make up for all the work that he had previously delayed.

Shi Xiao forced himself to perk up and listened to Zhao Mian’s report attentively. From ti to ti, she would raise one or two questions and suggestions. Then, Zhao Mian noted them beside the docunt. The two of them discussed things for the entire afternoon. When the discussion was finally over, the sun had already set.

The orange sunset gave the sky a red hue. The last rays of the setting sun shone into the office through the French windows and shone on Shi Xiao’s desk, casting a faint yellow glow on the side of his handso face, revealing his chiseled jawline.

As he looked at the sunset calmly, his heart was filled with warmth and he couldn’t help but think of Yuan Shu. He wondered how her life was on the production team. If she had to stay up late to film, would her body be able to take it?

Zhao Mian was shocked to see her boss smile so warmly.

She had been by her boss’s side for so many years, but she had never seen him smile like this. Most of the ti, her boss had his lips pursed and handled his work seriously with an impassive expression. He would only fake a smile when he was socializing. It was rare for him to smile from the bottom of his heart like he did today.

Zhao Mian made a ntal note to tell her brother about the shocking scene she saw today!

Although Zhao Mian was usually strict and serious when she was working, after work, she beca a happy hobody who binged on dramas.

She lived with her brother, Zhao Cheng, and the two of them had the sa boss. Although their boss treated them very well, they would still secretly joke about their boss when they returned ho.

The two of them even gave Shi Xiao a nickna in private. “Poker Face.”

This nickna was sothing that Zhao Mian had co up with at the last minute when she saw a male lead that had the sa personality as Shi Xiao. Zhao Cheng approved of the nickna when he heard it.

As she watched the drama, Zhao Mian complained, “Let tell you, although Young Master Shi and the male lead have the sa persona, I guarantee that Young Master Shi will never fall in love with anyone and will never be gentle to anyone.”

Zhao Cheng couldn’t agree more and he pointed at his own head.

As Shi Xiao watched the sunset, he was thinking about Yuan Shu. Zhao Mian was surprised by the scene she saw and was wondering if she would be silenced later for seeing sothing she shouldn’t see. Both of them were thinking about different things.

Shi Xiao’s phone suddenly rang at an inappropriate ti. After he picked up the call, there was no response for a long ti. Only then did Shi Xiao take a look at the caller ID. It was actually Lin Xi..
