Marriage of convenience blossoms into love; the husband turns out to be a billionaire CEO.

The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I couldn't bring myself to say them.

The woman worked during the day and ran a stall at night, dealing with the fumes and smoke in the bustling streets every day, yet she never complained and seemed quite happy. But his mindset had unknowingly changed.

He used to think that she and he were from two different worlds and should have nothing to do with each other, but now he feels inexplicably nervous and heartbroken for her.

I don't want her to bear too much responsibility.

The man paused for a moment and said, "Um... I've already finalized my job offer today. I'll start work tomorrow, so you don't need to work too hard to earn money."

"Really? Which company do you work for? What do you do?"

Ye Cheng paused, quite surprised.

Ji Lingfeng mumbled something on the spot: "At... Huifeng Investment Company, an ordinary white-collar worker, salary... 30,000."

Huifeng Investment Company is a subsidiary of the Ji Group.

"awesome!"

Ye Cheng cheered enthusiastically, her face beaming, with an expression that said, "My husband has finally made something of himself."

Huifeng is one of the top investment companies in Shenzhen.

This company is really amazing; even ordinary white-collar workers earn 30,000 yuan a month!

Overwhelmed with excitement, Ye Cheng instinctively grabbed Ji Lingfeng's arm, causing the stainless steel basin in the man's hand to slip and fall to the ground with a clatter.

The woman hurriedly picked them up, her face flushed.

"Wow, I didn't know my neighbor's husband was so amazing! Which friend recommended him? We should treat him to dinner sometime!"

Ji Lingfeng looked at the cheering woman with doting eyes, a subtle smile playing on his lips.

Foolish woman, you're overjoyed about this?

If she knew that her husband was the CEO of the Ji Group, a company worth hundreds of millions, would she be terrified?

"Um...yes, a friend recommended it."

The man answered casually, then changed the subject, probing:

"So, are you... giving up your stall?"

Ye Cheng's eyes darted around, and she answered decisively, "No, the stall must continue to be set up."

Still displaying them?!

Ji Lingfeng's eyelids twitched.

"why?"

"Houses in Shenzhen are expensive. If we bring Grandpa to live with us in the future, we'll need to buy at least a three-bedroom house, which will definitely cost several million. Let's work hard together to make money while we're young, and having a side business will help us earn more."

The man was a little annoyed; it seemed he should have quoted a higher salary.

"Besides, the stall business was just starting to pick up. Not long after we set up today, a big order came in, and they bought all the tofu in one go. I had to go back to get the stock from home, and then I ran into your friend Jin Dayu. I didn't expect that he, a grown man, would love stinky tofu even more than I do. He ate ten servings in one go and bought the rest."

Ye Cheng didn't notice the man's expression and continued to chatter animatedly.

Ji Lingfeng felt a soreness in his brow as he listened.

Stupid woman, your husband bought it for you with his own money!

"Even if we're just living together, we should still make the most of it, don't you think?"

As the woman finished speaking, she gave him a meaningful glance.

The man's lips twitched twice, but he didn't answer.

A gloomy expression flashed across his face.

Ji Lingfeng washed the pot, dried his hands, and stared at the woman for two seconds with a deep gaze.

Ye Cheng felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and subconsciously wiped her nose.

Suddenly, the man stretched out his long arm and pulled her out of the kitchen.

"What?"

The woman followed behind, looking completely bewildered.

"Let's get down to business."

The man gave a nonchalant reply.

Let's get down to business...

The woman blushed, and her heart pounded wildly.

Could it be that he's going to... today?

No, she's on her period...

Ye Cheng's mind was filled with all sorts of wild thoughts.

Upon entering the living room, the man paused and stopped, extending his right hand in front of her.

"Give me."

"..."

The woman blushed and tugged at the hem of her dress.

"Give...what?"

The man parted his thin lips slightly: "Cellphone."

"..."

Ye Cheng swallowed nervously, wondering what nonsense she was thinking.

What is he doing with his phone? Is he going to change her WeChat nickname?

The woman was somewhat confused and reluctantly handed over her phone.

The man took the phone, his long, slender fingers swiping the screen to open WeChat.

"You added Lin Xiaoyu on WeChat today, but then deleted him!"

The voice was harsh and cold, carrying an unquestionable command.

Ye Cheng: "..."

That's all for the important stuff!

He saw that I added him on WeChat. It seems that those eyes are not only deadly, but also incredibly sharp!

"What's wrong with adding each other on WeChat? Hey, neighbor, you're not going to meddle in my normal social interactions, are you?"

Ye Cheng crossed her arms and stared wide-eyed.

“Xiaoyu and I are fellow vendors, and he also studies advertising planning. I added him to make it easier to communicate and ask him for advice on my planning proposals.”

Ji Lingfeng ignored her, his slender fingers methodically swiping the screen until he found a recently added WeChat account.

A clear sky stretching for ten thousand miles

His jaw was clenched, and a hint of disdain flickered in his cold eyes.

Click on the profile picture calmly and delete the contact smoothly.

Hand the phone back.

Ye Cheng glared at the domineering man in front of her and angrily put her hands on her hips.

"Ji Lingfeng, I think you're just jealous, but you're stubbornly refusing to admit it!"

Ji Lingfeng shoved the phone into her hand, calmly looked away, and gave her an expression that said, "Say what you want."

"Can you finish that proposal by tomorrow?"

The man asked calmly.

"A proposal?"

Ye Cheng murmured.

What exactly is going on in this situation?

She replied hesitantly, "I should be able to write a preliminary plan by tomorrow."

Ji Lingfeng nodded: "Alright, then you can close your shop tomorrow night and I'll take a look for you."

The woman's eyes flickered with a hint of confusion.

It's often said that looks and intelligence are inversely proportional.

This man is so handsome, it's as if God favors him!

Ji Lingfeng chuckled and looked down at the woman.

"What, you don't trust me, but you don't trust the investment firm's judgment?"

Raise your perfectly sculpted chin, and you unconsciously revert to your arrogant and domineering CEO persona.

Ye Cheng blinked her eyes.

That's true. For an investment company as large as Huifeng, even if you get in through a friend's introduction, how could you do it without some real strength?

She immediately changed her expression and said ingratiatingly, "Oh, not at all, I just didn't think of it for a moment. I'll write the proposal at the company tomorrow and then come back to ask my husband next door for advice, hehe."

"that--"

The woman paused, then tilted her head and grinned, "Could I offer a small suggestion?"

Ji Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.

"I suggest we set up a stall while we discuss things; that way we can achieve the best of both worlds and not neglect either..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man gave him a death stare.

We're closed tomorrow!

It was another order that left no room for argument.

Ye Cheng twitched the corners of her mouth, feeling a little heartbroken about the extra money she would lose tomorrow.

A bank card flashed before my eyes and was handed to me.

The man stared at her expression and, of course, understood.

Women are worried about money.

"This is my salary card. My salary will be deposited into it at the end of each month."

Ye Cheng took it in a daze, blurting out, "The legendary good man who hands over his salary card?"

After saying this, her face turned red.

He gave Ji Lingfeng an awkward but polite smile.

The man narrowed his eyes.

"Do you look like me?"
