Chapter 1 The Beautiful Boss Returns to the Country
East Sea.
The spring breeze of February was long overdue, leaving the air still cold and piercing to the bone.
Qin Yu was up at six in the morning, braving the cold wind to deliver several rounds of takeout before rushing to the civil affairs office.
He was getting married to Old Yang's granddaughter.
Half a month ago, Old Yang had fallen by the roadside. It drew a crowd, but no one dared to help him up.
Only the delivery man, Qin Yu, lent a hand.
From then on, Old Yang called Qin Yu every day to persuade him to take his granddaughter, who was having difficulty finding a husband.
Having just been betrayed by his girlfriend, heartbroken and impulsive, Qin Yu agreed on the spot.
Before long.
A taxi stopped in front of Qin Yu, and down stepped a woman, clad in a long down coat with black framed glasses, completely bundled up.
Her face was dotted with quite a few freckles, very ordinary-looking.
The only highlight was her notably tall stature.
"Let's go!"
The woman glanced at Qin Yu in his yellow delivery uniform and spoke as though her words were golden.
"Alright!"
Qin Yu was aware of his own standing, a delivery man who had come to the big city from a remote small town to eke out a living, indeed had no place for pickiness.
Following the woman, he entered the civil affairs office.
Perhaps due to the cold weather, they were the only couple there. In less than ten minutes, the marriage certificate was issued.
He also learned her name, Yang Xue.
"Grandpa asked me to marry you, so I did. I might be quite busy for a while, I'll contact you when I have time!"
Yang Xue said indifferently and then got into a taxi by the roadside.
"Heh..."
Qin Yu chuckled bitterly.
Indeed, a woman willing to have a shotgun wedding with a stranger must have long lost any expectations for marriage.

The marriage registration was merely a formality.
Afterwards.
Yang Xue never showed up again.
It was Old Yang, seeing how Qin Yu worked tirelessly in all weather, delivering takeout, who referred him to Four Seas Corporation as a security guard.
The benefits were very decent, and Qin Yu cherished the job, hoping to stay for many more years.
So he could repay the debt his ex-girlfriend had left him sooner.
In the blink of an eye.
It was February again.
Exactly one year had passed.
"Here's an easy job for you, go with Chen Bin to the airport to pick up Director Yan!"
That day, just as Qin Yu had started his shift, the supervisor handed him a set of car keys.
"Okay, I'll go right now!"
Qin Yu and Chen Bin quickly made their way to the airport in a Buick MPV.
They hadn't been standing for ten minutes when Chen Bin started to complain about the cold and wanted to get back in the car to warm up with the heater.
Only Qin Yu stood erect, holding up the sign that read "Four Seas Corporation" high above his head, so that the female boss could see him immediately upon stepping out.
"Tsk, why bother trying so hard to show off? Director Yan's already married, what would she see in you, a stinky security guard?"
"Bang!"
Chen Bin sneered and said sarcastically, then closed the car door.
"Heh..."
Qin Yu gave a faint smile.
How could he possibly harbor unrealistic fantasies about the company's female boss? He was just doing his best to fulfill his duties, nothing more.
So as not to make any mistakes and lose his livelihood, for finding such a good job again would be difficult.
One hour later...
Finally, a tall figure in a black trench coat and pulling a suitcase emerged from the hall.
She looked to be in her late twenties.
With a trace of coldness and majesty in her brows, she clearly had long been in a position of power.
She glanced at the sign above Qin Yu's head and walked towards him with her long strides.
Her strong presence and striking beauty caused many to pause and look sideways, her head-turning rate was truly off the charts!
"Mr. Yan!"
Qin Yu put down the sign, intending to pull the female boss's suitcase. But as he took a step forward, he went down on one knee.
"Are you... feeling unwell?"
The female boss frowned slightly, looking at Qin Yu, whose complexion was ashen.
"No... my leg... it's a bit numb!"
Qin Yu stammered.
Anyone standing in the cold wind for an hour would have numb legs.
"Drama queen!"
Chen Bin muttered under his breath before pushing the car door open, nodding and bowing continuously, "Mr. Yan, the heat is on, please!"
"Be careful with the suitcase!"
The female boss said indifferently before getting into the car.
After returning to the company.
Chen Bin even shared the story of Qin Yu "kneeling down" with other colleagues.
They all laughed heartily, saying Qin Yu was indulging in wishful thinking, a toad lusting after a swan's flesh.
Qin Yu didn't retort, believing that the pure have nothing to hide. He just wanted to work hard, earn money, and pay off debts.
"@everyone: All 'A' level security agents, come to Mr. Yan's office. She is selecting a driver who will also be a safety assistant!"
A vice president posted in the security department's WeChat group @everyone.
Security agents at Four Seas Corporation were assessed once every month.
Qin Yu worked more conscientiously than anyone, and was naturally 'A' level as well.
"Qin Yu, make a good impression, as soon as you enter the door, kneel down to Mr. Yan! Haha...."
Chen Bin, who had been 'B' level for five or six years, said sourly as he put away his phone.
Qin Yu ignored him, and, along with about a dozen other 'A' level security agents, followed the female secretary to the female boss's spacious and bright office.
"Mr. Yan, everyone is here!"
After the female secretary informed the boss, who was admiring the view outside the window, she stepped aside.
"Who wants to introduce themselves first?"
The female boss turned around, her ethereal and cool temperament exerting an intangible pressure on others.
The company was in turmoil, and she was called upon to take charge from overseas. Not daring to trust outsiders, she could only choose a driver-cum-bodyguard from the excellent security agents within the company.
"Zhao Jun, retired from the provincial team, has won the Sanda championship!"
A tall 'A' level security agent stood up, chest puffed out, eyes blazing as he looked at the female boss.
After returning to the company, she had changed into a beige suit that outlined her smooth, statuesque curves, making her look mature, noble, elegant, and captivating.
"Next!"
The boss slightly furrowed her brows at Zhao Jun's fervent gaze.
"Tang Hu, martial arts school graduate, adept in Bajiquan and Tongbei!"
Another tall young man stood up.
However, his voice carried a hint of nervousness. The female boss's gaze was too sharp, making one feel as though they were standing naked before her.
"Next!"
The female boss still shook her head.
"Qin Yu, retired reconnaissance soldier after five years. Won first place in the district combat competition!"
Qin Yu stood with his hands aligned with the seams of his trousers, in a standard military posture, his eyes clear, his voice loud and resonant.
He, too, hoped to be chosen to earn a higher salary.
To sort out that matter as soon as possible, to be debt-free and carefree.
"Qin Yu?"
In the female boss's clear, black-and-white eyes, a trace of absent-mindedness appeared.
A year ago, she had deliberately "disguised herself" and married a food delivery man.
She vaguely remembered that his name was Qin Yu.
However, her memory was too blurry, and she couldn't recall the face of that "husband" anymore.
As for Qin Yu, he would never associate the fair-skinned, beautiful, and unapproachable female boss with his wife registered at the bureau.
Because Yang Xue was the only daughter of the Yan family, born into a large clan.
During her growth, she was never short of overt conspiracies and covert plots.
So, she had two names.
Today, having returned to the country and taken control of the company, she reclaimed her original name.
Yan Mingyu!
