Wen Yuan stood under a huge palm tree, thinking about the words of the shipping association president.
How can an antique collector persuade someone to open his private collection for public viewing when he doesn't even know the other person's last name?
As far as she knew, private antique collectors generally kept a low profile. They were willing to exhibit ordinary collections, but the chances of top-notch collections appearing in public were almost zero.
There was too little information, so she needed to use her connections to find this antique collector.
She glanced at Ji Mingyi who was talking on the phone in the corner and knew that he would not be able to finish the call for a while.
Since I had to wait for a while, I simply went to the restaurant's open-air balcony and found a seat to wait for him.
The weather in Hai City at the end of June is very good.
A gentle sea breeze blew, bringing with it the salty and humid smell of the sea. In a trance, Wen Yuan had the illusion that he was on vacation on an island.
At this time, a tall figure approached slowly from the edge of the beach.
The cuffs of his white shirt were rolled up to his elbows, revealing his strong and muscular arms, while his black sunglasses blocked his overly sharp eyes.
It seems like he is passing by casually, but in fact he has a clear goal.
Wen Yuan suddenly turned his face away, and this action seemed to be an attempt to cover up something.
Her dodging was useless. Soon someone stood in front of her, blocking the originally dazzling sunlight.
"Boss Wen, what a coincidence."
Gao Yan lowered his eyes to look at her, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.
Wen Yuan felt that Li Zhao must have gone to an acting school for further studies in recent years. His tone of voice was so natural that there was no trace of acting at all.
She frowned slightly, not wanting to respond to his "what a coincidence".
Gao Yan took off his sunglasses, pulled out the chair next to her, and sat next to her.
The sea breeze was mixed with each other's scent.
Wen Yuan sprayed Gabrielle Nature perfume before going out. After a while, the aftertaste of sandalwood scent lingered.
Gao Yan tilted his head slightly, took two sniffs, and turned back contentedly.
Compared to Gao Yan's calmness, Wen Yuan felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
The strange yet familiar masculine scent always lingered at the tip of Wen Yuan's nose, and her brows never relaxed.
"Mr. Wen." Gao Yan suddenly spoke.
"......"
"Can't you really give me a chance? I'll be a very qualified general assistant."
Wen Yuan snorted coldly. It was unbelievable that a man who was born into a royal family, trained as a successor to a dynasty and stood at the pinnacle of power, would be willing to become the chief assistant of a woman.
Back then, in order to unify the world, Li Zhao even made the princess of the enemy country his queen.
His words are not credible at all.
"Gao Yan, do you understand the meaning of Pass?" Wen Yuan asked sincerely. She suspected that Li Zhao, who traveled through time from the feudal society, did not understand English.
Gao Yan raised his eyebrows: "Pass, doesn't that mean pass?"
"How can you be competent as a general assistant if you don't even understand workplace jargon?"
"I'm willing to learn. Can you teach me, President Wen?" Gao Yan did not argue. Instead, he lowered his posture and whispered a request in response to her words.
This kind of Li Zhao is very unfamiliar.
Wen Yuan finally looked at him.
Gao Yan has a slicked-back hair, gentle eyes and a slight smile on his lips. Even so, his inner aura is still so strong that it is frightening.
"Can't--"
Wen Yuan's palm-sized face wrinkled slightly, and Gao Yan found it very cute when she deliberately emphasized her words.
"Okay, then I'll work harder and try to meet Mr. Wen's requirements as soon as possible and get the job."
Wen Yuan couldn't help but glare at him. What was wrong with this guy? Was he possessed by a ghost, or was he connected to some job-hunting system?
Otherwise how to explain his personality which is completely different from before.
Wen Yuan's pupils trembled slightly, and he felt that this possibility was very high.
One of the conditions for her to bind the system was that she encountered a natural disaster in the real world and died. Could it be that Li Zhao also died in the Taifeng Dynasty?
Why would you die?
The southern border area that had been left for a hundred years has been brought under his control. The entire Taifeng Dynasty is his. He has obtained everything he wanted.
Besides, the palace was full of guards. As the emperor, it was impossible for him to encounter a man-made disaster. Could it be a natural disaster?
Wen Yuan was puzzled. How did he get here? How did he become Gao Yan?
She had been thinking about this problem all night, her head was swelling, and finally she fell into a deep sleep under the influence of alcohol.
Wen Yuan didn't think it was a coincidence that he met Gao Yan today.
Gao Yan must have been bound to the system and approached her with some purpose.
Just like before, she and Ji Xingyao were forced to marry two impoverished princes to the bewilderment of everyone, essentially in exchange for a new life and a huge reward.
[Are you bound to the system?]
The words came to Wen Yuan's lips but were swallowed back.
In the game between adults, whoever shows his cards first loses.
What's more, she hasn't fully figured out Gao Yan's origins.
Since Li Zhao was playing dumb with her, she just played dumb and continued to act.
"Xiao Yuan."
Ji Mingyi finally hung up the phone and walked towards her.
When I arrived, I found that there was a man I had never seen before sitting next to Wen Yuan.
"Xiao Yuan, who is this?"
Ji Mingyi looked at Gao Yan with an unfriendly look. This strange man who suddenly appeared had a dangerous aura that only his own kind could sense.
"I'm President Wen's chief assistant." Gao Yan looked straight into Ji Mingyi's eyes.
Wen Yuan was surprised that he was lying with his eyes open. Just as he was about to explain, Gao Yan added, "The future general assistant."
Ji Mingyi was a little confused by Gao Yan's words: "Xiao Yuan, when did you hire a general assistant?"
Wen Yuan couldn't stay any longer, so she stood up and said, "Boss Ji, let's go."
"Okay, let's talk in my car." Ji Mingyi said immediately.
Gao Yan's face looked very ugly at this time. He stared at Ji Mingyi with ice in his eyes.
Although the sun was shining brightly above his head, Ji Mingyi shivered inexplicably.
Before Ji Mingyi could savor the meaning of this look, Wen Yuan had already left without looking back, and he hurriedly followed him.
In fact, Wen Yuan didn't want to get in Ji Mingyi's car, but she didn't want to be with Gao Yan, so she had to settle for the second best.
Ji Mingyi's car is very big and tall, with plenty of space in the back seat.
Wen Yuan bent down and went in, and the first thing he saw was the condoms next to the locker.
For a moment, she really didn't want to go in. Who knew what unspeakable things Ji Mingyi had done with that woman here.
Ji Mingyi opened the door on the other side and obviously saw it too.
"Yeah, haha, who...put this there?" He smiled awkwardly and quickly put the condom into the locker.
Wen Yuan and Ji Mingyi were schoolmates who met during their senior year. Upon learning that Wen Yuan was planning to move to Hai City after graduation, Ji Mingyi offered him considerable assistance.
Ji Mingyi has no major shortcomings except that he likes women. The Ji family has been rooted in Hai City for many years and has many connections and means.
They have always had a relationship of interest, leveraging their relationships to invest in various industries and then share a piece of the pie.
After working together for a long time, Ji Mingyi's old habit came back and he would flirt with Wen Yuan from time to time.
Wen Yuan is like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, how can he sway her?
Ji Mingyi knew very well that Wen Yuan was a woman he could never get no matter what, but men often forget this when they act like cheapskates.
Wen Yuan was already used to it, but the trap in front of her was really disgusting. When she was thinking about whether to get out of the car, the door on her side was suddenly pulled open.
