"President Yu, the parts production line and component assembly line of the new factory have officially started production. The flight test center and delivery center will also be completed by the end of the month." Xu Cheng, sitting in the passenger seat, turned around, opened his laptop, and reported the work to the person in the back seat one by one.

"Hmm." Yu Yunting looked at the report he had sent, frowning as he examined the data.

"Why is the first-pass yield still below standard? Didn't we discuss updating the tail wing component uniformly at last week's meeting?"

"Uh...yes..." Faced with the boss's cold gaze and questioning, Xu Cheng lowered his head nervously.

He had contacted several factory managers and knew that the component hadn't yet been officially used on all production lines, so he deliberately placed that data in a very inconspicuous place at the end. He didn't expect the boss to spot it so easily; there was no way to fool him.

"Give me an answer before you leave work today. I need to know when this pass rate will improve. If it's still like this next month, the chief engineer can be fired."

"Understood." Xu Cheng remained silent, lowering his head and not daring to speak.

"Is there anything else?" Seeing that he didn't turn around for a long time, Yu Yunting looked up at the man in the front row.

"Um... Mr. Yu, I'd like to take a few days off for my wedding." Xu Cheng smiled somewhat shyly. "I'm getting ready to marry my girlfriend."

"Oh?" He nodded. "Okay."

"I remember you've been dating your girlfriend for many years, haven't you?"

"Yes, we started dating back in college."

Although Yu Yunting didn't care about his subordinates' private lives, he vaguely remembered that Xu Cheng was often teased by other colleagues about how he and his girlfriend had a good relationship.

He cleared his throat and slowly began, "May I ask how you and your girlfriend developed your relationship?"

Xu Cheng was taken aback, not expecting his boss to ask about his love life.

Still using this serious tone.

"Um... my girlfriend likes romance. So I occasionally send her flowers, and we watch movies together on holidays. I also try to be considerate of her feelings... girls, you know, they all like their boyfriends to pamper and cherish them."

Seeing that the boss's face didn't show much emotion, Xu Cheng gradually revealed an awkward smile as he spoke.

"Okay, please order a few bouquets of flowers for me."

"What?" Xu Cheng was stunned, and it took him a long time to react.

"...Where does Mr. Yu want to send it?" he asked cautiously.

"Just send it to that photography studio from last time." Although he had asked the brand department what the studio's name was, Yu Yunting thought for a moment and realized he had long forgotten it.

"Understood." So it was for Mrs. Yu. Xu Cheng had thought he was about to find out some big news.

After that event, Xu Cheng had already looked into the photography studio that the boss had mentioned, and he also knew that Jian Ailing was one of the partners.

What kind of flowers would you like to send?

The boss actually sent flowers to his wife... Did he suddenly have a change of heart?

"Don't you know this better than I do?" The car stopped at the main entrance of Tianheng Group. Yu Yunting got out of the car, seemingly not intending to answer the question.

"……clear."

-

"You're finally back." Jian Ailing pushed open the studio door, and Zhao Zitong immediately turned around to look at her.

"Yes, didn't I tell you? Feel free to contact me if you need any work." She no longer wanted to stay in this house all day long. More importantly, she needed to work hard to earn money to pay back Yu Yunting.

"They're all yours, take care of them."

Following his gesture, Jane looked at the table she usually used and saw three large bouquets of flowers on it.

"...Are they all mine?" She walked to her desk in disbelief and saw several bouquets of vibrant champagne roses with cards addressed to "Miss Jane".

What's going on? Who else would send her so many roses?

"Wow, you've already started your second spring so quickly?" Zhao Zitong teased with a smile.

"Don't be crazy." She rolled her eyes.

"Then it seems to be a gift from your husband." He glanced at her left hand and noticed that Jane Ailing had put her wedding ring back on.

"That's impossible." They just agreed to divorce a few days ago. Yu Yunting must be crazy to start sending her flowers now.

"Tsk, fine, don't tell me then." Zhao Zitong shrugged.

The phone screen on the table lit up, and Jian Ailing glanced at it to see that it was a message sent to her by Zhou Zean.

[Zhou Zean]: Ai Ling, I haven't seen you since the last banquet.

[Zhou Zean]: How have you been lately? Have you been bullied?

Jane Ailing felt a pang of emotion; Zhou Ze'an cared more about her well-being in the Yu family than her own family did.

If he were his older brother, perhaps what happened back then wouldn't have occurred...

Jane picked up her phone and sent him a message.

[Jane Ailing]: It has been a long time since we last met. Shall we have a meal together?

After sending the message, she couldn't help but glance at the bouquets of flowers on the desktop.

"By the way, did you receive the transfer from last time?" Zhao Zitong interrupted her thoughts.

"Received." As expected of a big company, the compensation is indeed very generous.

"Li Tong from the brand department said they didn't get a photo of President Yu last time, and they'll schedule another time for us. Would it be alright if you went?"

"That price..."

"It's settled, just like last time."

"I'll go, I'll go!" Jane Ailing immediately perked up, no longer caring who she was going to photograph.

It's rare to find a job that pays well and pays quickly, so of course she wouldn't hesitate to ask for help.

Zhao Zitong raised an eyebrow, looking at the woman in front of him with an eager expression.

"Jane Ailing, you weren't like this last time. The moment you heard we had to stay for the photoshoot, you looked like you wanted to run away at any moment… Did something happen that night?"

"No, nothing like that." She touched her nose, trying to hide her embarrassment. "We didn't manage to film it last time, so how could anything have happened?"

"That's fine then." Zhao Zitong shrugged. "I'll go make an appointment with Li Tong then. Are you free these days?"

"Of course, I'm available anytime!" Jane Ailing rolled her eyes. "Besides the Tianheng Group's events, haven't we received any other work?"

"No, that's not it. It's just that Lao Qin and I can handle those jobs." As he spoke, he sensed a hidden meaning in Jian Ailing's words. "What? You want to do it too? You're so short of money lately... Did your husband go bankrupt?"

"Hmm...more or less." Jane Ailing wanted to explain, but couldn't think of a better excuse. "If you're too busy, just come to me. I need to make more money right now."

"Okay, I'm about to order takeout. Want to eat together?"

"No, thank you." Jian Ailing shook her head as she picked up her phone to reply to a message. "I have plans."
