"Oh, a tan? Do you think I'm really dark now?"

Si Lili was surprised that Chen Yu would say such a thing, and immediately said sadly, "Actually, I didn't know my skin wasn't that fair, but it's okay, we've already bought so many cosmetics, right? There's bound to be one that can make me fairer."

Si Lili hadn't realized that she was now starting to feel insecure about losing Chen Yu.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu immediately waved her hand and said, "That's not what I meant. You're not going to reply to me. I just feel a little hot. How about we walk side by side?"

"It's 40 degrees Celsius today."

"OK then."

Si Lili smiled helplessly after hearing this, and then followed Chen Yu to put all the things into the car.

Just as the two of them were about to return to the mall to watch a movie, Si Lili's phone suddenly rang.

Si Lili frowned as she looked at the name flashing on the phone. She had already asked for leave, so she didn't know why Lin Weiyang was calling her again.

Seeing Si Lili staring blankly at her phone without answering, Chen Yu immediately asked with some confusion, "What are you doing? Why aren't you answering your phone? Do you have someone else on the side?"

"How could that be? It's Chairman Lin."

Si Lili showed Chen Yu her phone with a hint of helplessness and said, "I don't know what Chairman Lin wants with me, but anyway, I've already taken the day off."

"Then just hang up. I doubt he has anything important to do. If he had something urgent, he would definitely delegate it to someone else."

Chen Yu listened to Si Lili's words and said somewhat indifferently.

"Well... but I'm the only secretary on my end right now. Maybe he really has something urgent to do. Let me take this call first."

After hearing Chen Yu's words, Si Lili hesitated for a moment, then frowned and forced a smile before walking away to a more distant place.

"Hey, Lin..."

But before Si Lili could utter even two words, Lin Weiyang on the other end of the line yelled at her like a madwoman, "Si Lili, what are you doing? Do you want to quit your job?"

"Why didn't you come to the company today? Do you know that everyone who's supposed to be in a meeting is waiting for you in the conference room?"

"But Mr. Lin, I've already texted you to ask for leave. I'm not feeling well today, so I won't be going."

Si Lili frowned upon hearing Lin Weiyang's words and said somewhat helplessly, "Didn't you see my information? Besides, I also submitted my leave application in the OA system."

"I don't care about any of that. I didn't even see your text message. I don't care if you come to the company right now and deal with these things for me. If you don't come, then don't ever come back."

Upon hearing Si Lili's words, Lin Weiyang immediately assumed that Si Lili was with Chen Yu and shouted.

"But Mr. Lin, I'm on a date right now and can't go back at all. Why don't you tell me what happened first, and I'll handle it remotely?"

Upon hearing Lin Weiyang's roar, Si Lili couldn't help but frown. He told the truth that it was the first time he had ever heard Lin Weiyang make such a sound.

"Are you done talking? If you are, we should go in now. The movie will start soon."

Just as Si Lili was on the phone, Chen Yu suddenly came over and said with a smile, "Tell Lin Weiyang that you're mine today."

Si Lili was surprised that Chen Yu would suddenly come over, so she quickly frowned, trying to tell Chen Yu to shut up. But seeing Si Lili's expression, Chen Yu thought that Si Lili was in trouble, so he anxiously asked, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"I have nothing to say, it's just that Mr. Lin wants me to go back for a meeting."

After hearing Chen Yu's words, Si Lili reluctantly told Chen Yu what had happened.

"Oh, go back for a meeting? Didn't you already ask for leave? What kind of meeting is this? Give me your phone when you wake up, I'll talk to him."

Chen Yu frowned upon hearing Si Lili's words, inwardly grumbling about Lin Weiyang. This Lin Weiyang was too good at exploiting his employees; they had already taken leave, yet he still made them work overtime. It was really too much.

Then Chen Yu took Si Lili's phone directly: "Hello, is this Chairman Lin? This is Chen Yu."

"Oh? Mr. Chen, I didn't expect you to really be with Lili. I was really rude just now. I'm so sorry."

Upon hearing the voice she had longed for, Lin Weiyang immediately choked up.

He never expected that the person he had his eye on would get involved with Si Lili. And Si Lili was really going too far. She got permission to take leave with just a text message. Shouldn't she have called to ask for leave?

"So, Mr. Lin, do you agree or not?"

Seeing that Lin Weiyang hadn't responded for a long time, Chen Yu said somewhat impatiently.

"Yes, of course I agree. But if I may ask, are you and Lili together?"

Lin Weiyang frowned and said with some heartache.

He didn't know where he went wrong, or why a good man like Chen Yu would let Si Lili get the better deal.

"Yes, we're together now. He's my girlfriend. Chairman Lin, please don't take advantage of his position to bully him. He's already very busy with work. He finally got a day off. Can't you handle things yourself?"

Chen Yu said jokingly.

"I…"

Lin Weiyang felt a pang of heartache upon hearing Chen Yu's words, but he couldn't say anything at the moment, so he simply hung up the phone.

Chen Yu looked at the phone that had already been hung up and handed it to Si Lili, saying, "It's okay, your boss has already agreed. It seems that I, as an investor, still have a lot of authority in front of him."

"Oh, he just agreed like that? Did he sound unhappy?"

Looking at the phone in her hand, Si Lili couldn't help but ask with some doubt, "Although Lin Weiyang is young, he is, after all, a graduate of a proper business school who has studied abroad."

Therefore, he is quite experienced in business matters and is very clever in using both kindness and strictness to manage his subordinates.

Si Lili originally thought that he would have to go to work with his tail between his legs after this phone call, but unexpectedly Lin Weiyang agreed.

"Alright, stop thinking about these things. Let's go see a movie first. If you don't go now, the movie will start again."

Chen Yu smiled upon hearing Si Lili's words and said that he had originally wanted to rent out the entire theater, but Si Lili seemed to value thrift, and he didn't know what kind of trouble it would cause if he rented out the theater. So he decided to take Si Lili to a regular screening instead.
