Qi Yan still rembered that he had argued with Lin iya before, and now, even looking at his secretary seed a bit odd.
He waved his hand, "It's nothing, you can go. I have to leave now, so you can leave for the day too."
Zeng Xiui looked at her handso boss and bit her lip, "Mr. Qi, it seems like the company is hiring a secretary."
As Qi Yan was putting on his jacket, he glanced at her and said, "Yes."
But he didn't say much more, since his wife didn't like his current secretary, and just so, the branch office was going to open, he planned to transfer Zeng Xiui there.
Of course, he had to hire a secretary first; otherwise, things here would be a bit chaotic without a proper handover.
Not to ntion, Zeng Xiui had been with the company ever since he and Xie Xiao started it.
Her work capability was really quite strong.
So, of course, Qi Yan wouldn't waste it, and it should also amount to a promotion to go to the branch office.
Zeng Xiui's eyes reddened a bit, "Did, did Miss Lin say sothing?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan looked at her, "Why do you ask that?"
He frowned, "And you should call her Mrs. Qi."
Zeng Xiui looked at Qi Yan, tears almost falling from her eyes, as she could not believe Qi Yan really knew nothing.
Initially, when Qi Yan was dating, she was also upset, but she didn't take it to heart.
Because Qi Yan was such a workaholic, who could stand that?
But unexpectedly, his girlfriend was even busier than him.
Mainly because Qi Yan was really committed.
Zeng Xiui just didn't understand how Qi Yan could appear to be a flirt while also having the family background that allowed him to be one.
And then he got married...
Zeng Xiui had thought that as long as she stayed by his side, when he grew tired, when he wanted to settle down, she would always be there...
But Qi Yan got married just like that.
She couldn't accept it. Seeing Lin iya made it even harder to accept.
Lin iya was attractive, but she wasn't bad either, right?
She had been by Qi Yan's side even longer, how did soone manage to steal him away?
Afterwards, her attitude towards Lin iya was just lukewarm.
She probably noticed and then seldomly ca to the company.
Now, hearing Qi Yan insist on her calling his wife 'Mrs.', Zeng Xiui turned even paler, "I..."
She took a deep breath, "I saw that the recruitnt requirent was for males and thought... maybe Mrs. was concerned..."
Qi Yan wasn't foolish, on the contrary, he was very smart.
Previously, it was because he had never really paid any attention to his secretary.
Don't be joking, he was too busy to die; how could he have the ti to pay attention to his secretary?
But now, anyone who wasn't blind could probably see sothing was off with Zeng Xiui, right?
He slightly frowned, wondering what exactly he had previously overlooked.
Perhaps Xie Xiao was right, a person with Lin iya's personality wouldn't be upset without reason; he must have overlooked so detail.
At this mont, he clearly saw the uncontrollable affection in Zeng Xiui's eyes.
He sighed inwardly, no wonder his wife was upset.
Qi Yan looked at Zeng Xiui, "Secretary Zeng, having been a secretary for so long, you should know what should be ntioned and what should not be asked, right? You have always been a smart person."
Zeng Xiui glanced at him and then lowered her head, "I, I understand, Mr. Qi."
"As soon as the branch office is ready, you should go there. You have worked hard these years," Qi Yan said as he picked up his car keys and prepared to leave.
Zeng Xiui didn't expect he wouldn't even offer her an explanation or seem to want to hear another word from her.
But like Qi Yan said, Zeng Xiui was a smart person; she didn't call after Qi Yan.
The attitude of Qi Yan was already very clear.
The look he had given her just now was disappointing.
Zeng Xiui had already understood Qi Yan's attitude.
Having been by his side for so long, she knew him too well. Continuing to ask might even cost her the job...
Zeng Xiui glanced at Qi Yan's departing figure and took a deep breath, realizing that there probably was never a chance.
She envied Lin iya.
Over here, Qi Yan quickly walked down to the parking lot, his brow still furrowed.
He carefully recalled that he had been to the company with Lin iya several tis before.
But then she didn't want to co with him anymore.
When he asked her why, she just said it was nothing, worried it might affect his work...
Qi Yan sighed and decided to try what Xie Xiao had suggested.
Just saying everything directly would be best, just lay it all out.
Qi Yan bought flowers and then went to pick up Lin iya.
He rembered to send Lin iya a ssage asking her to wait for him.
The reply was an OK emoji.
When Qi Yan arrived, Lin iya was already standing by the roadside.
Seeing Qi Yan's car, she opened the door and was about to get in when she noticed the flowers on the front seat.
She paused, looked at Qi Yan.
Qi Yan smiled at her, "Do you like them?"
Lin iya smiled too, reached for the flowers, and got in.
Qi Yan had already unbuckled his seatbelt, leaned over to help her buckle up, and kissed her.
Lin iya said, "I like them."
They had quarreled last night, and there was sowhat of a cold war between them.
But the atmosphere suddenly seed to improve now.
Qi Yan sat back down, fastened his seatbelt, and started the car, "Let's go eat at the restaurant where we had our first official date, shall we?"
"Sure."
The car fell into a brief silence.
Both of them felt uneasy, it was obvious...
Before, they could chat on WeChat until the early hours of the morning.
But now they sat together with nothing to say.
It wasn't that there was nothing to talk about, but they were both afraid, not knowing what might upset the other...
Qi Yan sighed, "I'm sorry, my wife."
Lin iya looked at him surprised, her own apology not managing to co out.
"...What are you apologizing for, were my demands too unreasonable?" Lin iya's voice was soft, "Your secretary has been with you for so many years..."
"I'm already hiring a new secretary; it may take so ti, and I'll find a male secretary," Qi Yan said softly, "I never knew she had other intentions towards , I'm sorry for causing you discomfort."
Lin iya clutched the flowers tightly, "Did she confess to you?"
Actually, Zeng Xiui hadn't done anything, but the hostility in her gaze was too obvious.
The undisguised affection in her eyes when she looked at Qi Yan.
All of this was unacceptable to Lin iya.
No woman could endure having a secretary by her husband's side who harbored personal feelings for him.

They spent more ti together every day than Qi Yan did with her.
Just thinking about this was unbearable for Lin iya.
"No, she didn't," Qi Yan stopped at the red light, reaching out for Lin iya's hand, "It was my obtuseness, only realizing it now. I'm sorry, from now on, let's just speak our minds, okay?"
Qi Yan looked at her earnestly, "Just like how I love you."
