Chapter 134: Madam Xie

The bodyguards swore an oath that they would make Ye Fei’s life miserable at the company and reclaim their lost honor. Ye Fei, however, found the situation amusing; to him, those bodyguards didn't seem like fierce opponents, but rather like a bunch of scrawny, helpless chicks.

"Are you very happy about getting hired?" the supervisor asked, noticing Ye Fei’s persistent smile.

Ye Fei quickly wiped the grin off his face. "Yes. I haven't eaten in many days, so having a job is the greatest honor for me."

The supervisor sneered. In this day and age, to find such a destitute person—it seemed he could easily embezzle a portion of the bodyguard's salary. He led Ye Fei to the chairman’s office. There were two offices on the top floor; the one next door was labeled "General Manager." That general manager must have significant clout to be positioned right next to the chairman.

The supervisor pushed open the door to reveal a smiling woman. She looked to be about forty, and while the lines on her face were visible, her figure was quite impressive.

"Madam, this is the person I told you about. His combat skills are excellent."

Madam Xie stood up and scrutinized Ye Fei. She nodded. "Impressive. You look lean and weak, but I wouldn't have expected such skill. I’ve seen your martial arts videos; you could easily compete in tournaments. Are you really willing to demean yourself by working as a bodyguard?"

*Should I try to raise the price now?* Ye Fei thought. He wrinkled his nose and offered a lecherous grin. "Can I ask for more money?"

Madam Xie burst into laughter, her face crinkling. "Fine, name your price and I'll see if I can accept it."

"Ten thousand a day. I guarantee no one will get near you."

The supervisor rolled his eyes. His own salary was only twenty thousand a month, and this guy was asking for ten thousand a day—that would be three hundred thousand a month!

"Madam, this man is from the countryside and hasn't seen much of the world. Please don't take it to heart. He’s just greedy for money. Why waste the funds?" the supervisor whispered, trying to sway her.

However, Ye Fei’s hearing and vision were far beyond that of an ordinary person; he heard every word clearly. He stood there, glancing at the supervisor—a mere servant to Xie Yanzi, yet speaking with such unearned arrogance.

"Madam, ten thousand a day. No bargaining. If you think it’s too expensive, I’ll take my leave. I have interviews at other companies," Ye Fei said, turning to walk away. Xie Yanzi called out to him just in time. "Wait."

Xie Yanzi knew that if Ye Fei applied to any other company, no one would turn him down. A talent like this would shine wherever he went.

Ye Fei knew the deal was sealed. He looked around the office and pointed toward the balcony. "Can I put a massage chair over there to lounge in?"

The supervisor’s face turned ghastly, and he began to berate him. "How dare you! This is the chairman’s office! Who do you think you are? You want to lounge here? Why don’t you just sleep here while you’re at it?"

Ye Fei put on an aggrieved expression and looked at Xie Yanzi.

"It doesn't matter. I'll have one brought in for you."

In all her years, Xie Yanzi had seen thousands of bodyguards, but this was the first time she had encountered one who exuded the aura of a true master like Ye Fei. She trusted her instincts.

Ye Fei finally got his wish. He lay in the chairman’s office, leisurely sipping tea and watching the endless stream of traffic below. He chatted with Xie Yanzi occasionally, but mostly sat quietly, listening to their business proposals.

Three days passed, and Ye Fei hadn't heard a single piece of valuable information. Xie Yanzi was, as expected, from a prominent business family—she hadn't let a single detail slip in front of him. If he kept lying in the office, he wouldn't gather any intelligence; he decided it would be better to go out and scout around.

The Gao family building had twenty-five floors. Instead of the elevator, Ye Fei walked down, inspecting each floor. Below the chairman’s office were the secretaries and the archives. Just as Ye Fei stepped out of the stairwell, he collided with a woman.

"I’m sorry, I’m so sorry! I didn't mean to."

The voice sounded familiar. Ye Fei realized, "Mika?"

She looked up, saw Ye Fei, and her cheeks turned crimson. "Boss, why are you here? You haven't been to the company in a long time."

"Missed me?" Ye Fei teased.

Mika grew even more flustered, shaking her head vigorously. "No, that’s not what I meant. I just..."

In her haste, she looked even more adorable. Ye Fei suppressed a smile and put on his "boss" persona. "Tell me, what are you doing here during office hours?"

Mika gasped, her face flushed as she explained, "I’m working on a case. The Gao Group recently asked us to track someone down, so I came to get more details."

Ye Fei glanced around, pulled her into a nearby restroom, and locked the door. As their eyes met, Mika’s heartbeat was audible.

"The fact that we know each other must not be revealed to them."

In the cramped restroom, Mika and Ye Fei were pressed tightly against each other. Ye Fei’s left hand shifted slightly, and he quickly suppressed the urges rising within him. However, while Ye Fei could hold back, Mika seemed to be struggling. Her face was flushed, her hands were clenched behind her back, and her teeth were chattering.

"Who is the person they asked you to investigate? Send me the detailed files after you get back. Remember, never let anyone know I’m at the Gao Group." As Ye Fei spoke, Mika’s hazy eyes were fixed on his lips. She swallowed repeatedly, her pink tongue peeking out.

*Forget it!* he thought. *It’s just a kiss; it won’t break my virginity. Who told me to be so charming?*

Ye Fei cupped Mika’s face and captured her darting, pink tongue. Mika was aggressive, her tongue like a desert craving water, as if she could only find solace with him.

After a long while, Ye Fei pulled away. Mika’s arms were wrapped tightly around him, her eyes filled with longing, her body shifting against his. Ye Fei channeled his spiritual energy into Mika’s body, helping her suppress the last of her surging desire.

"Did I... lose my composure?" Mika’s eyes filled with tears, her voice anxious. "I don't know why, but whenever I see you... I can't help it... I want you..."

Seeing her choked up, Ye Fei reached out and patted her head. "It’s nothing. It was just a kiss. Go back now, and remember to handle the task I gave you."

She nodded and hurried out. Ye Fei took out his phone and checked his reflection in the camera. He did look quite handsome, and with the added allure of his spiritual energy, was it any wonder that everyone fell for him?

"Damn this charm!"
