Chapter 41: I Am Now the Master of the Yun Family!:
Leaving the conference room, Yun Bufan encountered Zhen Xiaoxiao as soon as he arrived at his office.
The two collided.
"Ah!" Zhen Xiaoxiao exclaimed in pain, reluctantly rubbing the sore area.
"CEO Yun, where did you go?" she asked.
Yun Bufan responded calmly, "Nowhere in particular."
It was obvious that Zhen Xiaoxiao was monitoring him. Yun Bufan's eyes flickered with mischief as he smiled and said, "I admit I was wrong earlier."
"What do you mean?" Zhen Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled.
Yun Bufan grinned, "Based on what I just felt, you're not small."
"You—" Zhen Xiaoxiao's face turned beet red, and she forgot to ask about Yun Bufan's whereabouts. Angrily, she turned and walked away.
"Heh heh heh, trying to play mind games with me!" Yun Bufan chuckled smugly.
Shortly after, an email from Dai Yuan arrived. Yun Bufan left work and headed home.
Yun Biao watched him leave from behind a window, and smiled sinisterly. "In a week, once the materials are purchased, it'll be time for Yun Bufan to be kicked out of the company!"
...
(At the Yun family mansion)
Yun Bufan finished washing up. Just as he was about to find Shen Qingxin, he heard a knock on the door.
Sure enough, Shen Qingxin was standing outside.
Before he could speak, Shen Qingxin began, her words leaving Yun Bufan stunned. Her beautiful face was slightly flushed.
"Um... how about you move in with me?" She suggested.
"What?" Yun Bufan hadn't expected Shen Qingxin to propose living together.
Seeing Yun Bufan's surprise, Shen Qingxin felt even more embarrassed. "Um... I live in the bridal room, which was prepared for us."
Her voice was soft and shy.
Yun Bufan was tempted to agree immediately.
This way, he could admire her beauty every day, especially after a bath.
However, he shook his head rationally.
His main mission now was to play the role of the villain and deal with Su Chen. So, he often needed private space.
Seeing him refuse, the light in Shen Qingxin's eyes dimmed: "You don't want to live with me? Are you not interested in me?"
Yun Bufan smiled, "No, I just want to wait until the day you can be with me without any reservations. Actually, you're not fully accepting me yet. I'm willing to wait for you."
Yun Bufan admired his own words. These words almost moved him.
Clearly, Shen Qingxin was also touched. She bit her lip.
"I don't know if you're sincere, but I'll believe you for now."
Seeing her disappointment, Yun Bufan added, "Actually, I have good news for you."
"What?" Shen Qingxin asked, her interest piqued.
"There's a perpetually losing branch of the Yun family. I want to find someone to turn it around. Are you interested?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingxin's eyes lit up. "You want me to manage the company?"
Yun Bufan nodded with a smile. "Yes, as long as you don't mind."
"Why would I mind! I'm so happy!" Shen Qingxin exclaimed excitedly, throwing herself at him and planting a kiss on his cheek. Then, she felt embarrassed again. "You're not lying to me, are you? Isn't there a rule that women who marry into the Yun family can't participate in family business?"
Yun Bufan replied indifferently, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Besides, I'm the decision-maker in the Yun family now. What I say goes. I'll take you to the company tomorrow."
Shen Qingxin hugged Yun Bufan again. "Thank you!"
Suddenly, she grabbed his collar, pulling him into the room and closing the door with her foot.
Yun Bufan's heart skipped a beat. "What are you doing?"
"Rewarding you," Shen Qingxin said shyly, her eyes filled with affection.
"Hey!" Yun Bufan couldn't say more before Shen Qingxin pounced on him, her soft lips pressing against his.
[Ding! System has detected that Shen Qingxin's affection for the host has increased by 2000 points. You can choose to reduce Su Chen's luck points or increase your own luck points]
Yun Bufan chose to reduce Su Chen's luck points.
[Ding! Su Chen's luck points were reduced by 2000. Current total: 70000 points]
After an hour of intimate interaction, Yun Bufan complained, "It's very unethical to ignite a fire and not put it out."
Shen Qingxin's fingers traced his chest slowly. "Wanting me is not impossible, but I'm not ready yet."
After speaking, she got out of bed. Her silky hair cascaded like a waterfall, highlighting her graceful curves.
"Not staying tonight?" Yun Bufan asked instinctively.
"No, I don't want to disturb your important work," Shen Qingxin replied, casting him a sweet glance before leaving with her clothes.
Yun Bufan laid on the bed and exhaled a sigh. Shen Qingxin was incredibly clever. This push and pull made his heart itch. However, Yun Bufan smiled, confident he would win her heart. One day, she would willingly be his.
...
The next day.
Yun Bufan took Shen Qingxin to the company.
"What? Let her manage a branch? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Upon hearing that Shen Qingxin would manage a branch, Yun Biao immediately opposed the idea.
Yun Bufan sat in the main seat of the conference room, and scanned the senior executives.
"Do you all disagree as well?" he asked.
Everyone began speaking at once.
"The Yun family has a rule that married-in women cannot participate in business affairs."
"Yes, she's an outsider. Why should she manage a company?"
"What does a woman know? Does she have any experience?"
Yun Bufan stated, "This rule can be changed."
"Bufan, are you going to violate our ancestors' rule for this woman?" Yun Biao's face darkened.
Seeing everyone's opposition, Shen Qingxin nervously lowered her head. "Maybe we should forget about it," she whispered to Yun Bufan, her eyes filled with disappointment.
"I promised you; how can I back out? What kind of man would I be then?" Yun Bufan suddenly stood up, slammed his hands on the conference table, and leaned forward.
"Don't forget, I am now the master of the Yun family!" He released a powerful aura, causing everyone to fall silent, not daring to voice their anger.
Yun Biao's face was dark, but a cunning plan formed in his mind. "Bufan, acting so willfully might harm our harmony. If you insist on letting Shen Qingxin manage the subsidiary, it's not impossible. But we need to set a standard. If she meets it, we will accept her. If she doesn't, she will naturally have to leave. Also, as her sponsor, you will be held accountable if Shen Qingxin causes any loss to the company."
After speaking, Yun Biao signaled the senior executives, who quickly nodded in agreement.
