Bai Xue kept silent, but she really thought that she could change Director Zhou’s mind. No man was immune to her charm; making him submit was only a matter of time.

Li Yan mocked her, “Just stop, Bai Xue. Have you not embarrassed yourself enough? I thought you were sensible, but it turned out that my judgment was wrong.”

Bai Xue’s expression turned ugly. Tears slid down her cheeks as she said in between sobs, “Li Yan, how dare you?”

Li Yan no longer felt the same heartache while looking at her tear-stained face. He said, “What do you want me to say? What right do you have to talk to a client?”

Bai Xue replied, “In the past, you didn’t care about these clients. If they made me unhappy, you would even give up negotiating with them. But now, you’ve changed.”

Li Yan laughed and said coldly, “Heh. Perhaps it’s my fault for spoiling you so much.”

Bai Xue was stunned, but she still pretended to be ignorant of Li Yan’s unusual attitude.

She said tearfully, “Li Yan, I’m sorry. I was selfish. I-I can change for you. Please don’t be angry anymore. I love you so much, and I can’t stand the thought of you not wanting me anymore.”

Li Yan felt confused as he looked at Bai Xue. He thought inwardly, ‘You’re still acting? Since when did you become such a hypocrite?’

He said coldly, “Are you leaving on your own or should I call the security guards?”

Bai Xue sobbed harder and said, “Li Yan, please don’t be like this. You’re scaring me.”

Li Yan didn’t feel anything at all. He said seriously, “This is my last warning. Leave or 1’11 call the security guards to make you leave.”

Bai Xue replied helplessly, “I’ll go. Don’t forget to eat.”

After that, she turned around and ran out with tears in her eyes.

Li Yan rubbed his temples as he recalled his first meeting with Bai Xue.

A pure and innocent girl in maid attire was forced by a group of men to drink alcohol. She was crying helplessly and trembling in fear. When Li Yan saw that scene, he felt a strong urge to protect the pitiful girl, so he stepped forward and saved her.

That girl was Bai Xue. She cried in Li Yan’s arms for a long time before finally calming down. After talking for a while, he learned that her family situation was bad. Her parents favored her brothers over her. She managed to get into school through hard work but couldn’t afford the tuition, so she had to work part-time.

Li Yan had always thought their meeting was purely coincidental—that he just happened to be at the right place to save her from bad guys. But now, he was doubting whether the coincidence was a setup instead.

Someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Li Yan said, “Enter.”

His assistant walked in and said nervously, “Young Master Li, I saw Miss Bai leaving in tears. Did something happen?”

Li Yan was annoyed. “Are you worried about her?”

The assistant said helplessly, “Young Master, you’re thinking too much. I’m only concerned that Miss Bai will do something again, and you’ll end up worried about her.”

Li Yan felt a little embarrassed. He coughed a few times and said, “Everything’s fine.”

His assistant smiled and said, “It’s just that, every time Miss Bai causes trouble, you’re the one cleaning up after her. Young Master, please let me say this frankly. She’s not worth your effort.”

Li Yan was stunned for a moment and said self-deprecatingly, “Is that so?”

His assistant looked at Li Yan’s expression and decided to speak his mind. “Young Master, Miss Bai is very good at causing trouble, but in your eyes, she’s never the one at fault.”

Li Yan replied blandly, “Oh.”

His assistant was right. In his eyes, Bai Xue was a pure and innocent girl who needed his protection. She wasn’t someone capable of doing something bad.

His assistant said, “But what happened today is different. In the past, she would only leave once you placated her. This time, however, she left in tears. It’s the first time this occurred. I’m afraid she will come up with some new tricks to deal with you.”

Li Yan said gloomily, “Whatever.”

The assistant hesitated for a moment before saying, “Young Master, there’s something else that I should tell you. Just now, 1 accompanied the receptionist to the finance department and helped her settle her salary. Afterward, the finance department informed me that three days ago, Miss Bai had withdrawn five million yuan.”

Li Yan said with a frown, “Have we not given her enough money before? Tell the finance department that Bai Xue cannot withdraw any money without my permission.”

His assistant nodded. “I’ll inform the finance department as soon as 1 can.”

Li Yan went silent, seemingly deep in thought. After a while, he said, “You’ve been my assistant for many years. I want you to be frank with me. What do you think about Bai Xue?”

His assistant replied without any hesitation, “She’s a hypocrite..”
