“Achan!” “Brother Chan!” Many people were calling from downstairs.

Li Weiyi walked out of the room to look. Besides Li Yunmo, five or six other young men and women were standing there. Thanks to the homework she had just done, Li Weiyi recognized them all as Zhang Jingchan’s classmates, and she could barely match their names. As for the strikingly beautiful girl standing beside Li Yunmo… Li Weiyi’s heart skipped a beat.

It was his girlfriend, Cheng Ruiyan.

Li Weiyi walked downstairs hesitantly. When she reached them, she had already adjusted her mindset. She looked at them with an indifferent expression and didn’t speak.

Cheng Ruiyan very naturally walked over and took his arm. Li Weiyi stiffened and smiled at her politely.

However, this rare sweet smile from her boyfriend made Cheng Ruiyan’s heart tremble. She held on tighter and leaned her head against him.

Li Weiyi: “…”

Did Zhang Jingchan’s girlfriend like to hang all over him? Whatever, she was professional—she could endure it.

A boy said, “Let’s go, Brother Chan, we’re just waiting for you.”

Li Weiyi asked very casually, “Where are we going?”

Several people looked at him.

“To celebrate Ruiyan’s birthday. You didn’t forget, did you?”

Li Weiyi immediately retorted, “How could I possibly forget!” She turned her head and teased Cheng Ruiyan playfully, “I was deliberately teasing you. You’re not mad, are you?”

But Cheng Ruiyan was somewhat mesmerized.

Today’s Achan had gentleness and tender affection in his eyes and expression. That layer of cold, aloof aura that usually shrouded him had disappeared without a trace overnight!

“Hmph…” She very cutely turned her head to the side. “We’ll see how you perform today.”

Such a simple action, yet when Cheng Ruiyan did it, it was vivid and alluring. Li Weiyi touched her nose, her face reddening a bit, thinking to herself: Lust is a knife hanging over one’s head—Zhang Jingchan, you really are an old hand.

When everyone got outside, they first went to admire Zhang Jingchan’s new car. Cheng Ruiyan saw the Ferrari, her heart pounding. She naturally assumed she would ride in the sports car with Zhang Jingchan—did that even need to be said?

She was restraining her excitement with reserve when she heard her boyfriend beside her say, “Li Yunmo, my head still hurts a bit today. You drive and take me.”

Cheng Ruiyan: “…”

Although Li Yunmo had a bit of interest in Cheng Ruiyan, he had a bit of interest in many beautiful women. So he didn’t notice Cheng Ruiyan’s disappointment at all and happily replied, “Absolutely! Who else would it be?” He flew over to open the car door and get in, even bragging to others, “Yesterday, Chan-ge gave me this little cutie’s first time. Chan-ge and me—we’re tight like that.”

Li Weiyi pulled her hand out of Cheng Ruiyan’s embrace and quickly got in the car, finally feeling relieved all over.

The others had also driven here. Cheng Ruiyan watched as her boyfriend immediately fastened his seatbelt after getting in the car, then looked up and waved at her with a smile, like a lucky cat. Cheng Ruiyan didn’t know whether to be angry at his lack of romantic sense or to love this adorably cute side of him. She bit her lip and nonchalantly got into another car.

“Let me ask you something,” Li Weiyi asked Li Yunmo. “Should I prepare another birthday gift for Cheng Ruiyan?”

This question had a purpose. If Zhang Jingchan had already prepared a gift and Li Yunmo happened to know about it, Li Weiyi could explain that she said “another” because she was worried the original gift wasn’t substantial enough, while also finding out where the original gift was. If Li Yunmo didn’t know, then she could just prepare another gift.

She thought to herself: Zhang Jingchan, look—who’s the best little boyfriend?

Li Yunmo looked at him strangely. “Didn’t you hate buying these kinds of things? It was agreed that you’d cover all expenses today—isn’t that enough? That’s tens of thousands of yuan.”

Li Weiyi: “…Enough!”

She remembered now—there was a text message on the phone saying he’d reserved a top-tier luxury suite at some entertainment club.

The club was located in the city center—a three-story standalone European-style building, pristine white and elegant. Above the entrance was a huge relief sculpture of Greek gods, exuding an aura of luxury.

They walked into the dazzling, brilliant lobby. A woman dressed as the lobby manager was seeing off a young man. The man saw them and walked over.

Li Yunmo called out, “Brother Xu Yi.”

Li Weiyi felt the man before her looked somewhat familiar, but couldn’t remember where she’d seen him. She suddenly realized, and a name popped into her mind: Xu Yi, the billionaire father’s assistant. The reservation text message on the phone had also been sent by Xu Yi.

Li Weiyi also called out, “Brother Xu Yi.”

“Achan.” Xu Yi smiled at Li Weiyi. He was about one meter eighty tall, dressed in a well-fitted black suit, with a slender build and very fair skin, wearing thin-framed glasses. He said, “I’ve checked the private room—everything’s set up. You can order food and drinks yourselves. The cake will be delivered in an hour—we ordered Black Swan. The office isn’t far from here. Call me anytime if you need anything.”

Li Weiyi understood now—so Zhang Jingchan used his father’s assistant as his own assistant. However, this was common in family businesses. After all, Zhang Jingchan was the future boss.

Li Weiyi: “Okay, thank you, Brother Xu Yi. You’ve worked hard.”

Xu Yi looked at her one more time, smiled slightly, and walked away with his long strides. He had a completely different temperament from these college students—refined, mature, and distinguished.

Cheng Ruiyan poked her boyfriend’s arm. “Who’s that?”

“My dad’s assistant.”

Cheng Ruiyan’s romantic young girl’s heart swelled even more. The assistant of such a major corporation’s boss was attending to this crown prince. No—attending to her, the crown princess.

The private room could easily accommodate twenty people. It had KTV, a pool table, areas for card games, darts… Pink balloons and decorations celebrating the birthday hung everywhere. An entire wall was covered with sparkling, dazzling crystal lights, and a full circle of red roses lined the wall—the scent of money was everywhere. Everyone who saw it exclaimed in admiration. Cheng Ruiyan’s pretty face flushed pink, and she looked at Li Weiyi with even more tender affection.

Li Weiyi didn’t notice, though. She was just thinking that Xu Yi was indeed very capable—no wonder he could be an executive assistant.

Executive assistants were creatures that, while Li Weiyi had never been one, she had encountered before. They anticipated what the boss wanted and addressed the boss’s urgent needs. Even some of the boss’s less presentable matters had to be handled by the executive assistant. Otherwise, why would most executive assistants be transferred to positions of real power in companies or departments after three to five years, becoming regional overlords?

Xu Yi clearly intended to curry favor with Zhang Jingchan. So could she use this person in the future? His connections were definitely more extensive than those of Zhang Jingchan, a mere college student.

She’d keep watching.

The atmosphere quickly livened up. Cheng Ruiyan was indeed worthy of being the department beauty—her singing voice was also melodious and pleasant. After she finished a love song, everyone started jeering, demanding that Li Weiyi duet with her. Li Weiyi absolutely refused. She had been tone-deaf since childhood and had no idea what Zhang Jingchan’s singing was like. She absolutely couldn’t expose herself. After declining repeatedly, she was forced to drink as penalty.

Before she knew it, she had drunk seven or eight glasses of beer. Her head felt dizzy and heavy as she leaned back on the sofa.

After a while, the servers wheeled in the cake.

Having probably received advance instructions from Xu Yi, the servers were very good at creating atmosphere—singing, offering birthday wishes. Li Weiyi was pulled to stand with Cheng Ruiyan in front of the cake.
