By extracting their desires for blind dates, I became the richest man.

When Xu Jia and Chen Qiu were in junior high school, Xu Yi was just in the third grade of elementary school.

At that time, Xu Jia and Chen Qiu had a very good relationship.

Xu Yi was a little tagalong, always following them around.

In Xu Yi's memory, Chen Qiu filled the ecological niche of an older brother who shouldn't have existed in her life.

A big brother who can play with her, have fun with her, and take her to explore the world.

If she were bullied at that time...

The first thing she thought of was not to tell the teacher, nor her sister Xu Jia.

It's Chen Qiu.

During that period, she became even more dependent on Chen Qiu than on her older sister Xu Jia.

Later, Xu Jia and Chen Qiu both entered high schools in the city and lived on campus.

Xu Yi was depressed for a long time after suddenly losing her older brother and sister.

After Chen Qiu was admitted to university, she went to another province.

His sister, Xu Jia, also contacted him less.

It became even more difficult for her to see Chen Qiu.

So, that's why I saw that profile at the conference room door earlier.

She spent quite a while trying to identify it.

If it weren't for Ma Du's respectful "General Manager Chen".

She really didn't dare to recognize him.

Chen Qiu looked at the graceful young woman in front of him.

His eyes were filled with emotion.

In his memory, Xu Yi was still a little bean sprout.

The last time we met was when I hosted my college entrance celebration banquet.

Xu Yi was just starting junior high school at that time, and she was thin and small.

The Xu Yi in front of me has fully grown into a young woman.

She was wearing a brown business suit and had her hair tied in a ponytail.

That pretty and bright face, and her sister Xu Jia, had two completely different temperaments.

Xu Jia is pure desire.

Xu Yi is intelligent and beautiful.

"Yiyi, it's been a long time."

Chen Qiu smiled.

That smile carried a sense of nostalgia and emotion.

Chen Qiu smiled.

Ma Du, standing nearby, was completely dumbfounded.

His eyes were wide open, his gaze shifting back and forth between Chen Qiu and Xu Yi.

Finally, he lowered his head in fear.

He didn't dare to look Xu Yi in the eye.

What he feared was not the falsification of reports at work.

Mr. Li can handle such minor matters.

What he feared was the relationship between Xu Yi and Chen Qiu.

"Yiyi?"

"Brother Chen Qiu?"

This form of address is enough to explain the relationship between the two.

He never expected this.

A junior intern who is completely at my mercy, being scolded and reprimanded at will.

He even had ulterior motives and tried to take advantage of a little girl.

She's actually the new CEO's...sister?

Ma Du recalled what had happened a few days ago.

Under the guise of providing guidance, he tried to put his hand on Xu Yi's shoulder and touch her hand.

Although Xu Yi dodged it.

But if Xu Yi were to report this to Chen Qiu...

If Ta Madu goes down, won't it be completely finished?

Thinking of this, Ma Du broke out in a cold sweat.

My entire back was soaked almost instantly.

Panicked, he could only turn to his boss, Li Cheng, for help.

Li Cheng also glanced at Xu Yi with surprise.

He vaguely remembered this girl.

After all, it's rare to find an intern this good-looking in a company.

As for work ability...

Li Cheng hadn't paid attention to it.

Interns, well, the capable ones, at most do some odd jobs.

But now, is work ability still important?

Not important anymore.

What's important is her affectionate way of calling Chen Qiu "Brother Chen Qiu".

"Haha, I didn't expect that."

Li Cheng laughed and stepped forward, trying to break the eerie atmosphere.

"There's an old acquaintance of Mr. Chen in the company, what a coincidence!"

He turned to Ma Du, his smile fading.

He had to determine the nature of the matter before Chen Qiu could make a move.

"Manager Ma, you haven't done your job properly."

Li Cheng's tone carried a hint of reprimand.

"The information was submitted even though it was incomplete."

"This is a key project for the city; we can't afford to make this kind of mistake again!"

He defined "incomplete information" as a "minor error".

In his view, no matter how powerful Chen Qiu's background was, he was still just a young man under thirty.

Even if he has the title of chief planner, how many projects can someone his age have been in charge of?

Most likely, they're just here to gain experience and build their resumes.

Would a young man like him, who's just trying to build up his seniority, dare to mess around with such a key project that the city is paying attention to right away?

Although Ma Du's abilities weren't top-notch, he was, after all, a trusted confidant who had followed him for several years.

If we can protect it, we should still try to protect it.

Li Cheng patted Ma Du on the shoulder.

"Ma Du, book a nice restaurant tonight to welcome Mr. Chen back!"

He gave him a wink.

Then he noticed that Ma Du's back was covered in sweat.

Li Cheng was puzzled.

"It's just a few missing documents, is it really worth getting so scared?"

"Useless."

Just then, Chen Qiu spoke up.

His voice was calm.

"This kind of small mistake is something we definitely need to pay attention to in the future."

Li Cheng nodded to himself.

It seems this young man with a mysterious background is quite mild-mannered.

Knowing how to maintain appropriate boundaries.

The thought had just crossed his mind.

Chen Qiu's voice followed immediately.

"So, Manager Ma, you should look for another job."

"..."

The smile on Li Cheng's face instantly froze.

Ma Du's mind went blank with a "buzz".

Fired... fired?

Li Cheng frowned.

He felt that this young man was a bit too sharp.

"Mr. Chen."

His tone also became more serious.

"Ma Du has been traveling a lot on business recently, visiting several construction sites to assess their capabilities, and hasn't had much rest."

"It's inevitable to make a few minor mistakes at work."

"I think we should deduct his year-end bonus this time..."

As Li Cheng spoke, he secretly kicked Ma Du.

Ma Du seemed to awaken from a dream.

He nearly lost his balance with a thud.

"Mr. Chen! I was wrong!"

"I promise I will take this seriously and be more careful from now on..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

Chen Qiu interrupted him directly.

"I think Manager Ma has always been very careful about accepting bribes and lining his own pockets."

Li Cheng's eyes narrowed instantly.

"Mr. Chen."

"This is not something you can joke about."

Chen Qiu was too lazy to argue with them.

He simply uttered three names and three numbers.

Chen Qiu said each name.

Ma Du's face paled a little.

When all three names have been said.

Ma Du's face was ashen white, devoid of any color.

His whole body was trembling slightly.

Upon seeing this, Li Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

Did you get them all right?

Fuck!

Li Cheng cursed inwardly.

This Madu guy has no patience at all!

The project has only just begun, and there's not even a hint of it yet, but they dared to take action!

and……

Li Cheng looked at Chen Qiu with suspicion and uncertainty.

How could he know so much?

Could it be that Director Wang found it out?

Is the intention to use this young man as a warning to themselves?

Li Cheng's thoughts raced.

next moment.

He immediately put on a pained expression, pointed at Ma Du, and started cursing.

"Madu!"

"Is this the promise you kept making to me?!"

"You've disappointed me so much!"

Chen Qiu smiled.

He just watched Li Cheng perform quietly.

As for why a newly appointed president would know these things?

This walkthrough is no joke.

Let alone Ma Du's petty tricks.

He knows exactly what you, Li Cheng, are doing.

However, now is not the time to take action against Li Cheng.

Li Cheng is capable.

It's not too late to make him pay back the principal and interest once he finishes the work.

Chen Qiu stood up and walked to Ma Du.

"Manager Ma."

"We don't need anyone out there lining their own pockets."

His gaze then turned to Xu Yi at the door.

"Including the engineering manager who was hands-on with the interns."

"You can take the initiative to go and explain yourself to the disciplinary inspection department."

Chen Qiu's last words were spoken softly.

But to Ma Du's ears, it sounded like a thunderclap.

With a thud, his legs gave way and he collapsed to his knees.

"Mr. Chen! I was wrong! I was really wrong!"

Xu Yi, who was standing at the door, heard the words "touching the interns inappropriately."

He was completely stunned.

She looked at Chen Qiu with surprise and emotion.

"Brother Chen Qiu...how did you know?"
