The brand-new office area was spotless.

All kinds of office supplies are readily available and have a faint, pleasant scent of wood.

It lacks the stuffy and oppressive atmosphere of old office buildings, and is bright and spacious overall.

Tian Jun walked at the front, slowing his pace.

As the head of the rice group, he didn't need to personally lead people on a tour of the new company premises.

But this new company is different; it's Zhang Yifan's company.

It is a core new project that will enable deep integration and mutual empowerment with the Rice Group in the future.

He personally oversaw and supervised the entire process, from site selection, decoration, and layout to the completion of various procedures.

"Yifan, look this way."

Tian Jun raised his hand to signal, and patiently and meticulously introduced each item one by one.

"I made a lightweight layout for the entire open work area according to your requirements."

The workstations are spaced further apart, with provisions for future expansion, so they won't feel crowded.

There are a total of six meeting rooms of various sizes, including negotiation rooms and multimedia meeting rooms, to meet the needs of daily office work and business meetings.

The largest, most private office at the very back is the CEO's office reserved specifically for you; it has the best lighting and view on the entire floor.

He gave a meticulous and clear presentation, explaining every detail clearly.

While he was talking about serious matters, his eyes were always wandering.

Every two or three seconds, my gaze would unconsciously drift to the side.

His gaze was fixed on the mask on Zhang Yifan's face.

The curiosity in my heart never faded away from the moment we met downstairs.

What exactly is going on?

He looked fine, walked steadily, and seemed to be in good spirits.

He showed no signs of being weak or sick.

But he insisted on wearing a mask tightly, covering himself completely.

Adding to the unusual behavior of Shen Zhiyi, who was trying to suppress her laughter the whole time.

Tian Jun's doubts had long since piled up, and his curiosity was at its peak.

Zhang Yifan watched the whole thing and was extremely flustered.

He is now truly tense, both physically and mentally, with every nerve in his body stretched to the limit.

I dare not walk with big strides, dare not look up, and even dare not breathe deeply.

I subconsciously raise my hand to protect the edge of my mask at all times.

They were afraid that a gust of wind or a sudden movement would cause their masks to slip off, leaving them mortally injured.

Along the way, he deliberately avoided all the trends.

Even if it means taking a longer route, I will never take the risk.

Shen Zhiyi, standing to the side, was clearly enjoying the spectacle.

The little girl followed slowly beside him, her bright, lively eyes occasionally glancing furtively at his face.

Every time she saw Zhang Yifan looking like he was facing a formidable enemy and being extremely cautious, she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.

She would occasionally move closer to him on purpose.

The slight touch startled Zhang Yifan, who instantly froze and immediately covered his mask with both hands.

Seeing his nervous and flustered appearance, Shen Zhiyi's shoulders trembled slightly.

Zhang Yifan caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye and mentally cursed.

This little girl!

It was absolutely intentional!

She stayed up all night reflecting on her actions and carefully coaxed others.

Instead, she drew a beard all over his face and threatened to publicly humiliate him.

Dating is so difficult!

……

The group walked through the work area and went straight to the innermost independent CEO's office.

Stepping inside, the space is spacious and grand, with a simple yet sophisticated decor, befitting a top-tier startup.

The floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the city's bustling commercial district, offering a wide view and excellent natural light.

The three of them took their seats on the guest sofa.

Putting aside the funny interlude, Tian Jun instantly switched into serious work mode.

"Yifan, I've completed all the necessary procedures for your landing."

Business registration, business license, qualification filing, and corporate bank account have all been completed, and the tax authorities have also been contacted in advance.

I've also laid the groundwork for you on the personnel side; headhunting channels, administrative reserves, and recruitment for entry-level positions can all begin at any time.

After speaking, Tian Jun looked up at Zhang Yifan with a sincere and respectful attitude.

"What track are you planning to work on? How do you want to collaborate with our rice group? Just tell me, and I'll fully cooperate."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yifan suppressed his embarrassment and panic, calmed down, and focused on getting down to business.

This is his own company, a business empire he personally laid out, and he cannot afford to treat it lightly.

He spoke clearly and slowly, explaining his business plan one by one.

From initial business trials and traffic integration, to mid-term project development and team building, and then to later resource sharing and deep integration with the Rice Group.

The logic is meticulous, the thinking is clear, and every step is planned very well.

Tian Jun nodded more and more as he listened, his eyes full of admiration.

He became increasingly certain that betting on Zhang Yifan was one of the best decisions he had ever made.

At such a young age, his vision, perspective, and execution ability far surpass those of his peers.

The two exchanged questions and answers, complementing each other, and quickly aligned all the cooperation frameworks.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became exceptionally formal and professional.

But then, an accident happened.

Suddenly, a strong gust of cold air blew in from the central air conditioning vent overhead.

The airflow swept straight toward Zhang Yifan's face.

The flimsy edges of the mask were instantly blown upwards by the wind.

The lines of the black ink were faintly visible at the edges.

Zhang Yifan was so scared he almost lost his mind.

There was no time to think; it was an instinctive reaction from my body. I suddenly raised my hand and covered the mask tightly.

The movements were extremely large, the posture was particularly exaggerated, and the whole person was instantly tense to the extreme.

This scene unfolded completely before Tian Jun's eyes.

Tian Jun's eyes flickered, and his doubts were finally confirmed.

There's definitely something wrong!

This is not just a simple matter of wearing a mask when you have a cold.

This is clearly something that can't be shown to others hidden under the mask!

He had suppressed his curiosity the whole way, but finally he couldn't hold back any longer.

Tian Jun smiled and probed, his tone casual and natural.

"Yifan, the room is kept at a constant temperature, and there are no outsiders inside."

There's no need to wear a mask all the time. Take it off and let some fresh air; it'll make you feel stuffy.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yifan felt a chill run down his spine and refused without even thinking.

"No need, no need!"

I haven't fully recovered from my cold yet, and I'm afraid of infecting you, Mr. Tian, ​​so it's safer to wear it.

His words were rushed, his eyes darted around, and his perfunctory manner was beyond perfunctory.

Shen Zhiyi, who was standing next to her, finally couldn't hold back anymore.

His head was slightly lowered, and his shoulders were shaking uncontrollably.

She bit her lip hard, using all her strength to suppress her laughter.

The way he was trying so hard to hold back his tears was practically screaming "I'm hiding something."

Tian Jun saw it clearly and was completely certain of his decision.

Young people really do keep little secrets!

It seems I won't be able to get over this until I uncover the mystery today.

Tian Jun put away his work mode and stood up with a smile.

"Alright, that's enough about the important stuff."

"Today I'm treating everyone to dinner tonight, let's have a good get-together."

Zhang Yifan's heart skipped a beat.

Have a meal?

Wouldn't that be the end of us?

How can you eat while wearing a mask?

Taking off his mask and publicly displaying his sanity is unacceptable!

His mind raced, frantically searching for excuses to shirk responsibility.

I just want to escape this high-risk scene as soon as possible.

"Mr. Tian, ​​we don't need to tonight..."

Before he could finish speaking, his attention was entirely focused on how to politely decline the dinner invitation, completely ignoring the road conditions beneath his feet.

On the ground, a temporary network cable bulged slightly.

He took a step and tripped right on it.

Click!

He lost his balance and staggered!

He swayed forward quite a distance.

A sudden, violent shaking.

They ripped the mask that was stuck tightly to his face off completely!

Swah——

The mask fell off and floated lightly to the ground.

His entire face was completely exposed to the air, without any cover.

Above the lips, a thick, neatly hand-painted mustache.

His chin was surrounded by a dense network of fine lines from his sideburns.

Neat, dense, outrageous.

It's as if a face has been magically replaced out of thin air; it's both comical and hilarious.

The air fell into a deathly silence.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

Tian Jun stood still, his eyes suddenly widening and his pupils contracting rapidly.

The smile on his face froze instantly, and he was completely stunned.

My mind went blank; I was completely stunned.

He filled in the blanks with secrets the whole way.

To my utter surprise, he had a hand-drawn mustache!

Zhang Yifan was stiff and motionless.

A burning sense of shame instantly swept over my entire body, chilling me from head to toe.

Massive public execution, a social spectacle!

next second.

Shen Zhiyi, standing beside him, could no longer suppress her laughter.

A crisp laugh instantly echoed throughout the entire office.

"Hahaha!"
