Ai stumbled back, but Yunru had tightly squeezed her in his teddy bear hug, so he didn't let her fall.
"I was waiting for you yesterday, but you postponed it. You two are so an! I was so excited!" His cheeks puffed up like two small balloons. He had wrapped his hands around her neck and squished his cheek against hers.
Jun facepald. "Yunru…At least let her co inside the office."
He stuck out his tongue. "It's all your fault that you made wait for so long!"
Ai suddenly rembered the feeling that was too similar to when Nian had rushed to hug her and smothered her in his embrace. Yunru was the sa.
The siblings and cousins really resemble each other…
She was quite surprised to see that President Chen Yunru of Sky Publishing had this childlike side to him.
"He-Hello."
"Hello, sister-in-law! I am Chen Yunru! I am Bro Jun's one and only most favorite cousin! I am also the President here! Nice to et you finally!"
Ai could see fluffy clouds floating on top of Yunru's head. pushed them inside. "First get inside. Also, don't strangle her. She is feeling breathless."
"Oh! Hehe, sorry for that~" Yunru loosened his hold but didn't completely didn't let go of her.
Jun shrugged and took a seat on the couch to which Ai stared at him, bewildered. She hadn't expected this reaction from him.
"You behaved so differently when Nian was hugging . You were throwing murderous glares at him."
His gaze darkened. "Obviously! He is Bro Nian. He, Bro Jian, Uncle Jing and Grandpa are nothing but big fat troubles in my life, so I stay away from them! Naturally, I don't want you to have anything to do with each other so that peace prevails in our life."
"..."
Jun stared at Yunru. "As far as Yunru is concerned, I treat him more like my son at tis rather than my cousin. That way, you beco his mother sort of. A son hugging his mother is no big deal. But an annoying brother-in-law is!"
"..."
Yunru's nose grew longer in pride. "Also, I am the closest to Bro Jun! We are a team! So I am allowed to do anything, including hugging my sister-in-law!"
Ai couldn't help but chuckle. "I see. It's really nice to et you too, Chen Yunru."
"You can just call Yunru!"
"Alright. It's nice to et you, Yunru."
His smile was like a golden beam of sunshine brightening the room. "You are so pretty, sister-in-law. I can see Bro fell for you so hard! I am so thrilled to work with you."
"Sa here."
"Sky Publishing has always focused more on webnovels and webcomics, but this is the first ti we will delve into traditional writing. You are the first author we have contracted with. I am so excited! I will give you a tour of our company later. It's an aweso place to work at," he proudly said.
Ai's orbs shone with warmth. "I can see that. If the CEO and President are such cute and warm people, then the company will definitely reflect that."
Jun coughed.
Yunru bead and hugged her even more. "You are so nice!"
Jun said, "Before taking her around the company, I want her to et so people first."
"I know, I know. I have already called them here.
A woman in her thirties and dressed in a sophisticated black business suit stepped in first, carrying grace and tact with her steps. Her gaze was professional and no-nonsense. She was a figure Ai was all too familiar with.
Jun stood up and introduced her. "You have already t her, but I will formally introduce now. She is Sun Bai. She is the Chief Editor and oversees all the authors and assistant editors here. She was an editor before, but I recently promoted her."
Ai greeted her. "Hello Miss. Sun. It's nice to et you."
Sun Bai politely nodded. "It's a pleasure to et you too, Miss. Zhou. Congratulations on winning the Summit."
"Thank you," she bowed, "I would like to apologize for lying about my identity the day we t. I am sincerely sorry."
She shook her head. "I am not offended, Miss. Zhou. I appreciate you ca out with the truth and clarified it in the end."
Ai really liked the elegance in her voice. Her expression looked stern, but there was also a hint of softness in her eyes.
Yunru chirped. "If you have any problems in case your editor is not available, then don't hesitate to contact Sun Bai."
"Indeed. That's my job."
The second person who ca in was a man who Ai had never t before. He was in his late twenties and dressed in a white shirt and black suit.
Jun glanced at him and said, "He is the Chief of Secretary, Hou Lin, overseeing Sky's managent and coordinating with all the departnts here. He is like Yunru and my assistant. He was also present at the Summit managing the talks with other publishing houses."
"I see," Ai smiled. "Hello, Mr. Hou."
Hou Lin respectfully bowed. "Welco to Sky, Miss. Zhou. Congratulations on winning the Summit. It's an honor to work with you."
"Thank you."
Like Sun Bai, he looked calm and poised.
Yunru said, "If you have so ideas about your book marketing or promotion or anything like that, then apart from Sun Bai, you can also talk to him."
"Oh. Got it."
Jun smiled. "And the last person now. I think you will be over the moon to et her."
Ai blinked in confusion. "Is that so?"
The click of the heels echoed as the door opened the third ti, and a woman stepped in.
Ai's lips parted in disbelief and her eyes widened. "Xi-Xing Bi?"
She blinked her eyes several tis to check if it was true.
"Aiii!" Xing Bi's face blossod with pure gleam. She was about to dash to her side and smother Ain her chest.
Sun Bai cleared her throat and gave her a stern glance.
Professionalism.
Xing Bi straightened up and coughed. "I am sorry."
"How are you here?" Ai was at a loss. She looked at Jun in a stupor, "I don't understand…"
Jun chuckled. "Well, Miss. Xing Bi will officially start working in Sky too just like you. I hired her after the Summit. She will be your editor."
