"I can't, but Nie Zhisen can?"

Fu Yanshi frowned, his dark eyes not missing a single change in her emotions.

After thinking for a few seconds, she didn't answer, but instead asked, "This time, my mother insisted that I bring my boyfriend to see her, otherwise she wouldn't have the surgery. I brought Nie Zhisen with me, thinking I could get away with it, but my mother suddenly demanded that Nie Zhisen's parents come to the ward immediately! If I had brought you instead, would your parents have been able to come?"

"..."

The answer is of course no.

Not only Fu Yanshi knew this, but Xu Qinghuan was also very clear about it.

After all, his noble status is undeniable!

"So, can you understand?" Xu Qinghuan asked cautiously.

But Fu Yanshi stopped talking.

He pursed his lips, kept a straight face, put on his clothes, and left the room without even applying the medicine!

Xu Qinghuan looked at that retreating figure and could only sigh in the end.

Hopefully, Fu Yanshi's possessiveness towards Xia Wanyu won't extend to himself in the future! I also hope he can understand that he is not Xia Wanyu, but just a lowly substitute.

……

Fu Yanshi left and never came back. Xu Qinghuan washed her face and continued to sit at her desk to work.

At six o'clock in the evening, Secretary Lin came and knocked on the door.

"Give me the parts you've checked. You have three more days! Since you don't need to leave the hotel, just do as much as you can. I'll talk to President Fu about getting your name on it later."

Xu Qinghuan gave an OK sign, but there was one thing she didn't understand.

"Secretary Lin, since you don't need me to come along for meetings or due diligence, why did you bring me with you to Hong Kong?"

He could have easily sent all this information to his own email and checked it at headquarters! Why go to all this trouble to bring her to Hong Kong, only for her to not even leave the building!

"This is President Fu's decision. I don't know the specifics. He may have other uses for you."

"President Fu's decision?"

"That's right! Otherwise, no matter how important I am as a secretary, I can't just decide who will be in charge of the project on my own."

Xu Qinghuan frowned slightly. "Did he specifically ask me to come?"

"Hmm." Secretary Lin nodded. Speaking of this, he was still full of doubts. "But I think it's probably because he also feels sorry for your background and knows that it's not easy for him to make it in the investment banking industry. He wants to help you out more! If you come to Hong Kong, it will be more legitimate for you to sign your name then."

Oh, so that's how it is. So you felt sorry for yourself...

"Xiao Xu, don't overthink it. In our industry, performance is what matters most. Background doesn't matter. We're not choosing a prince! President Fu has always appreciated people who are serious and responsible at work. The reason he's taking such good care of you is probably because he thinks you have potential."

She smiled and said, "He and I were classmates. He knew everything about my family situation back in junior high school. I don't have much to think about. On the contrary, I should thank President Fu more!"

After seeing Secretary Lin off, Xu Qinghuan returned to her room and suddenly felt an emptiness in her heart.

I can't explain it clearly.

She picked up her phone, thought for a while, and then sent a message.

Do you think that the stronger a man's possessiveness, the more he loves that woman?

Just like Fu Yanshi now, he's even jealous of himself, Xia Wanyu's substitute.

Fu Jiajia replied almost instantly: 【Of course! Is there even a question? It's absolutely proportional! I absolutely love it!】
