After much deliberation, Lai Shuo still didn’t want his high-and-mighty Master to turn into a scumbag.
He had realized by now that this Master of his chose to take responsibility for Boss Ye.
But even if he was to take responsibility for Boss Ye, he should get a divorce first!
Once divorced, he could be responsible however he wanted, to whover he wanted.
Upon hearing the words "divorce lawyer," Xiao Linye’s face imdiately darkened.
He even coldly spat out one word: "Scram!"
Xiao Linye found himself increasingly perplexed by his own assistant. When had he developed such a fussy, overthinking nature? Or had he been dealing too much with Boss Ye from Manlang lately, to the point that his personality was affected?
His sudden outburst truly shocked Lai Shuo.
This wasn’t right. He wasn’t divorcing, yet he wanted to bring Boss Ye into his life. What was this supposed to an? "The red flag at ho doesn’t fall, while the colorful flags outside flutter freely?" Why was Master like this? Lai Shuo was filled with resentnt, yet he dared not voice his anger.
In the end, he dejectedly left the office.

anwhile, Ye Yuning returned to Shanyu Pavilion, took a shower, and went straight to bed. She hadn’t gone to the studio that morning and hadn’t sent any word, so Chen Wei had been calling her repeatedly. Especially since so strange things had happened at the studio that day.
Ye Yuning was truly exhausted. When the phone buzzed insistently one more ti, she finally picked it up.
"Hello, what is it?" she grumbled.
"Boss, aren’t you coming to the office today?" Chen Wei asked.
"Isn’t it normal for not to co?" Ye Yuning retorted.
Chen Wei was speechless. It seed so! In other companies, bosses and senior managent usually arrived earlier than employees to set a good example. Their boss, however, was often late or absent, depending on her mood. She was there every day when things were busy, but her presence depended entirely on her mood during less busy tis. But now, with so many projects pending at the studio, it was obviously the busiest ti. The boss was really becoming more and more unreasonable.
Chen Wei sighed. "So, you’re not coming in today? But you were supposed to et Xiao Qi at the Xiao Corporation today, weren’t you?"
"Tell them I’m not going," Ye Yuning said.
She was too exhausted to go out right now; nothing else mattered, even if the sky were falling. What major disaster could possibly happen from a one-day delay?
She maintained this laid-back attitude, but when it ca to her own business, she always ensured it was handled properly and on ti.
Earning money with such a completely relaxed attitude... Chen Wei had never seen a boss like this before. It was actually good in a way; the subordinates didn’t feel much pressure and were judged by the content of their work. Whether she actively managed them or not didn’t seem to make much of a difference.
Chen Wei was exasperated. So capricious! If Lai Shuo found out, he would definitely hit the roof again.
Noticing Chen Wei’s silence, Ye Yuning mumbled, "Did sothing happen?"
"No!" Chen Wei replied quickly.
"Then why are you calling ?" Ye Yuning asked, a little exasperated. She had assud Chen Wei’s frantic calls ant sothing serious had happened at the studio.
Chen Wei said, "Nothing serious, but Ye Tong and Xiao Shuo are causing trouble again."
"Hmm?" Ye Yuning responded.
"Ye Tong ca to the studio this morning and tried to make a scene, but Luo Xin didn’t let her in," Chen Wei explained.
"What’s Xiao Shuo up to?" Ye Yuning asked, puzzled. She hadn’t put Xiao Shuo in his place recently. Was he ddling with her projects again?!
"He didn’t cause a scene," Chen Wei said, "but half an hour ago, he had a bouquet of roses delivered to you."
"What the hell?" Ye Yuning exclaid.
Chen Wei continued, "The card says: ’I was wrong. Please forgive !’"
Ye Yuning was silent for a mont. Asking for forgiveness? What kind of ga is he playing? Seriously, he and Ye Tong are unbelievable. His fiancée constantly cos looking for trouble with ... and now he’s sending roses? A seasoned player like Xiao Shuo couldn’t possibly be unaware of the aning behind roses. Is he trying to provoke a fight between and Ye Tong?
"I understand," Ye Yuning said, her tone clearly displeased.
"The roses?" Chen Wei ventured.
"Send them to Ye Tong!" Ye Yuning snapped, then decisively hung up the phone.
DAMN IT!
Trying to drag into his drama? He can choke on it himself!
"Huh?" Chen Wei stamred. Isn’t this just asking for trouble? Literally lighting a bomb?
"Send them!" Ye Yuning ordered from her end, probably before Chen Wei realized the call had ended or in a quick follow-up.
That psycho Xiao Shuo actually used such a tactic to disgust . Does he think I don’t know how to play dirty too? If I’m going to disgust soone, I’ll disgust Ye Tong. Let her get a good look at what kind of trash she fought so hard to snatch away.
"Ah... alright," Chen Wei agreed hesitantly over the phone, likely after Yuning’s firm instruction.
She should have known. Her boss isn’t soone to be trifled with. Although Chen Wei didn’t understand why Xiao Shuo would send Ye Yuning roses, she knew that if Ye Tong found out, Ye Tong would definitely storm into the studio and turn the place upside down. Rather than wait for Ye Tong to co and wreak havoc, it was better to shatter the pedestal Ye Tong had placed Xiao Shuo on in her heart. Let her go and deal with Xiao Shuo herself.
This was a brilliant countermove, tossing the explosive situation right back between Ye Tong and Xiao Shuo!
