The flirtatious girl is done flirting; Mr. He is now obsessed with her.

The next day, Bai Yishu clocked in for work on time. When she passed by the break room, she ran into Zhang Ling and the female employee who had switched her documents.

Today, instead of crickets chiding her behind her back, they looked at her with schadenfreude.

Bai Yishu glanced at them and walked straight to her workstation.

Hmph, just wait and see how my boyfriend deals with you guys!

Less than ten minutes after I sat down, He Yun Shen arrived at the company.

He had been in the office for a short while when he opened the door and looked at Zhang Ling, who was leaning against the office area.

"Zhang Ling, come to my office."

The other employees looked up curiously, but He Yun Shen's gaze shifted back to the female employee, his expression growing even colder.

"And you, together."

When Zhang Ling heard He Yunshen's voice, she was first taken aback, then exchanged an uneasy glance with the female employee, and braced herself as she walked toward the office.

This time, it was Bai Yishu's turn to gloat.

She propped her head up with one hand and watched the two of them pass by, looking like she was enjoying a good show.

When He Yun Shen saw them come in, his gaze kept sweeping back and forth between the two women.

"Do you know why I called you here?"

Zhang Ling felt a chill run down her spine, but she forced herself to remain calm and managed a smile.

"Mr. He, is there some problem with our work? Please point it out, and we will definitely correct it."

He Yun Shen gave a cold laugh, his voice filled with a chilling coldness.

"Zhang Ling, you've been with the company for quite a while now, so you should know the company rules and what I hate the most."

Zhang Ling's legs went weak and she could barely stand, but she still persevered.

"Mr. He, please don't scare me. I've always been working diligently and haven't violated any company rules."

"What's the deal with Bai Yishu's files? Don't tell me she messed them up herself."

Zhang Ling's face turned deathly pale instantly, and she subconsciously shook her head.

"Mr. He, I..."

Her eyes were filled with panic, and she suddenly pushed the female employee next to her forward.

"That's right, it's her! She was in charge of organizing the files yesterday, maybe she made a mistake!"

He Yun Shen turned his gaze to the female employee, as if looking at a lamb to the slaughter.

"Then tell me, what happened?"

The female employee was trembling with fear, and Zhang Ling kept giving her meaningful glances, signaling her not to say anything out of line.

"Mr. He, I...I...didn't mean to..."

He Yun Shen stood up and walked to the desk, looking down at her.

"So you're saying you accidentally switched the files? Do you think I'd believe that kind of basic mistake?"

The female employee was startled when she met He Yun Shen's cold gaze, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

"I...I said, Sister Zhang told me to do it. She told me to knock over Bai Yishu's documents and then switch them, saying she would give me a reward and that this would make Bai Yishu lose your trust..."

Zhang Ling's expression changed drastically, but she didn't dare to step forward to stop her from telling the truth. She could only grit her teeth and stand aside.

He Yun Shen's face was ashen, and his eyes were gloomy.

"Zhang Ling, is what she said true?"

Zhang Ling's face was ashen; she knew she had been exposed, so she simply stopped pretending.

"Yes, I did it! That brat's always so arrogant, I just wanted to teach her a lesson! Mr. He, you're not making such a big deal out of this, are you? Besides, why are you protecting her so much? Is it really as the rumors say...?"

"Shut up! What right do you have to spout nonsense here!"

He Yun Shen slammed his hand on the table, causing the documents on it to scatter around him. His eyes were fierce, as if he wanted to devour them.

"You're fired, effective immediately. Pack your things and get out of the company! And you too!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ling collapsed to the ground, staring at He Yun Shen in disbelief.

"President He, you can't do this to me! I've worked for the company for so many years, you can't just fire me like this!"

He Yun Shen watched her throw a tantrum on the ground and impatiently dialed a phone.

"Security, two people, drag these two out of the company. They're never to set foot in the company again!"

When Zhang Ling heard that security was to be called, she panicked and scrambled to He Yunshen's feet.

"Mr. He, I was wrong. Please, you are so magnanimous, give me another chance!"

He Yun Shen didn't want her to touch him, so he took half a step back and frowned in disgust.

After the security guard entered, Zhang Ling was still crying and begging for mercy, but He Yun Shen ignored her and said coldly, "Throw all their things out, don't dirty the company's trash cans."

Bai Yishu was sitting at her workstation when she heard a commotion. She saw security guards dragging the two of them out of the president's office and heading straight for the elevator. Zhang Ling's cries gradually faded away.

Bai Yishu stood frozen at her workstation, not expecting He Yunshen to fire them so directly.

The next second, the phone on her desk rang.

"Come to my office."

Bai Yishu immediately put down her work and went to the office.

"come over."

He Yun Shen sat at the table, his expression slightly softened, but a trace of lingering coldness remained in his eyes.

As she approached, He Yun Shen grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap, wrapping his arm around her waist and burying his head in Bai Yi Shu's neck.

"Don't move."

His breathing was heavy, as if he was trying to suppress something.

Bai Yishu reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, gently stroking the back of his head with her palm.

Don't be angry.

"How could I not be angry? How dare they treat you like that..."

He Yun Shen raised his head, his eyes still burning with anger, but his fingertips gently stroked Bai Yi Shu's cheek.

"If anything happens in the future, you must tell me, okay?"

Seeing Bai Yishu nod, He Yunshen relaxed, but Zhang Ling's words suddenly came to mind again.

"Yi Shu, don't pay attention to what those people outside are saying."

He cupped Bai Yishu's face in his hands, his eyes filled with an unprecedented seriousness.

"I'm protecting you, not for any other reason than... I don't want to see you suffer."

Bai Yishu felt a warm glow in her heart. She smiled and couldn't resist giving He Yunshen a peck on the cheek.

"Thank you."

"Why are you thanking me?"

He Yun Shen hugged her even tighter, and couldn't help but give her a few more words of advice.

"Don't let yourself get into this kind of trouble again, okay?"

Bai Yishu sighed inwardly. She didn't want to cause trouble for herself, but how many women in the company loved He Yun deeply but couldn't have him, and thus vented their resentment on her?

If I had a choice, I should have chosen a different position back then, and I wouldn't have become the target of everyone's criticism so quickly.

Bai Yishu nodded obediently.

"Okay, I understand."

He Yun Shen gave her a light kiss on the lips as a reward, then released her.

"Okay, let's go back to work. We'll leave work together tonight. I have something I want to talk to you about."
