Zhao Youlin frowned and nodded. The former master’s face was a little ugly, but he seemed to be deep in thought. He turned his eyes and said, “You just said that that Sirius was the senior that Youming had framed before. Is it possible that he’s only saying that on purpose…”

“Of course, I also thought of that possibility, so I asked someone to check the school’s rules and found that there was indeed such a rule. Sirius did not lie to us. “However, it’s better to thoroughly investigate other matters. I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to help investigate the rest to see if there’s really something else going on.”

The former master naturally believed more than half of Zhao Youlin’s words. He said with a serious face, “I’ll get someone to investigate this matter. But you…”

The former master lowered his head and looked at Zhao Youlin’s obvious belly. “Don’t overwork yourself with such nasty secrets for now. Just let your father and mother do whatever they need to do. As for you, the most important thing is to take good care of the child.”

Zhao Youlin knew that he was only concerned about her. The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips curled up slightly and she said with a smile, “Grandfather, I know. It’s not even four months yet. It’s not a big deal.”

The former master snorted coldly and spoke with a huff. “In a few months, when your belly is about the same as Yue Yue’s, go home and stay there. If you can be half as obedient as Yue Yue, I can worry less.”

Zhao Youlin knew that the former master was a typical sharp-tongued person with a soft heart. In the end, he was still worried about what would happen to her if she went to work in her state. After all, in the Zhao group, other than Zhao Yifei who had already been ousted, there were other dangerous people who were even more troublesome.

“Yes, yes, yes. In a few months, when my belly is as big as Yue Yue’s, I will stay at home. Even if you want me to go to work, I will definitely not budge. I will just stay at home and watch TV and walk my dog every day, so that all of you can take care of me.”

The former master’s expression finally seemed a little relieved after hearing Zhao Youlin’s promise. He snorted coldly and said, “When the time comes, just stay put here. The Mu family aside, our Zhao family is more than enough to take care of you.”

Zhao Youlin couldn’t help but laugh. The former master didn’t argue with her anymore.

Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng naturally stayed at the Zhao family that night. Nie Yunfan and An Qi stayed behind to have dinner and then returned to their little love nest.

The smug look on their faces before they left made Zhao Youlin want to grab them and beat them up.

The next morning, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng returned home with Joy. After a day of rest, President Mu, who had left behind a mess, finally returned to the company mercifully.

“Oh God, am I hallucinating? Or did God hear my prayers? President, are you really back? Ah, am I dreaming?! Someone slap me a few times and tell me if this is real.” Xia Zhetao had two large dark circles under his eyes. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Tingfeng, who had suddenly appeared in front of him. He almost thought that he was hallucinating because of how much he had been overworked.

Mu Tingfeng shot him a cold glance and said indifferently, “You have been slacking off during work hours. Your salary for this month has been deducted.”

Hearing this, Xia Zhetao quivered and instantly woke up. He also realized that the person in front of him was not an illusion. His immediate superior… had truly returned!

In his excitement, Xia Zhetao could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. He pounced and directly knelt at Mu Tingfeng’s feet. He hugged his thigh and howled, “President, you’re really back! What do you mean by slacking off? I was the one who bravely sacrificed myself and sacrificed my precious sleep and my handsome face for the entire company when you weren’t around! Look at me… Look at me…”

Xia Zhetao pointed at the two dark circles under his eyes that were about to fall off, with a face full of grief and indignation, he said, “Look at these dark circles under my eyes, look at my haggard face, and look at my skin that has been scarred by the flames of war. These are all irrefutable evidence of my selfless dedication to the company! It’s fine if you don’t reward me when you come back, but you actually want to deduct my salary. Where is the justice in this?”

Mu Tingfeng looked at Xia Zhetao, who was clutching his trouser leg tightly with a face full of disgust. The veins on his head throbbed a few times, then he gritted his teeth and said, “If you don’t shut up, this month’s salary will really be gone.”

Xia Zhetao’s bitter wail came to an abrupt end. However, the sorrowful eyes that were looking at Mu Tingfeng were clearly saying, “You’re heartless, you’re ruthless, you’re unreasonable!”

Mu Tingfeng only glanced at him indifferently and saved his pants from Xia Zhetao’s hands. He said in a low voice, “Did anything happen to the company while I was away?”

Xia Zhetao knew that the so-called salary increase was probably not going to happen. He could only laugh bitterly and say, “It’s alright. Everything is normal in the company. President, when you first left, there were indeed some people who were not very well-behaved. The master helped to resolve it. After that, basically no one dared to act rashly.”

This was also something that Mu Tingfeng had expected, so he only nodded indifferently and reached out to pat Xia Zhetao’s shoulder. He smoothed out his hair and said, “It’s been hard on you during this period. I’ll inform the finance department to give you more bonuses in the next two months.”

Giving a sweet apple after a beating had always been Mu Tingfeng’s best option to win people’s hearts. Reality proved that this method of handling things had a certain effect. At the very least, Xia Zhetao had fallen for his trick.

“President…” When he heard that Mu Tingfeng was going to reward him, Xia Zhetao’s eyes welled up with tears. He was so moved that he couldn’t wait to give himself to him. Obviously, he had thrown the matter of Mu Tingfeng wanting to deduct his salary out of his mind.

When Mu Tingfeng saw him like this, his eyebrows involuntarily trembled. He coughed lightly and said, “Alright, work hard. I won’t mistreat you. There will be a new person coming to the company in the next few days. Please take care of him.”

“A new person?” Xia Zhetao’s ears immediately perked up, and a sense of crisis appeared on his face. This person couldn’t be here to snatch his job, right?

Mu Tingfeng immediately saw through Xia Zhetao’s thoughts. He said lightly, “He’s a partner, but he’s not working with us. He’s working with the Zhao Group. However, this person is a subordinate of a friend of mine, so he’ll be working with us for the time being.”

Only then did Xia Zhetao let out a sigh of relief. He nodded and said, “Don’t worry, president. I’ll definitely take good care of the newbie.”

On the other side of things, Zhao Youlin had been on vacation for such a long time. She had never expected that the first person she saw when she came back to the company would be… Zhao Youming.

Zhao Youlin looked at the young man who had just gotten out of the car not far away. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly. She had finally experienced what it meant to be enemies on a narrow road.
