Secretary Lin knocked on the door and waited for a few seconds before pushing the door open. He announced to the person inside, "President Ling, she's here."

"Come in."

Hearing this voice, Jiang Xun lamented internally. Sure enough, the voice of a mature man was sexier.

"Please sit down." Ling Kong Leng stood by the window with his back facing her. His tall physique paired with the wide shoulders and narrow waist exuded a breathtaking aura, just looking at his back would make people moved. If it weren't for Jiang Xun adjusting the brilliance of his luck aura, she was afraid it would have been too bright for her to even keep her eyes open.

For now, the aura on Ling Kong Leng's body was quite attractive. It made her feel a desire to conquer him.

Jiang Xun sat down slowly while watching him.

Only then did Ling Kong Leng turn around to face her.

When the two locked eyes with each other, Jiang Xun immediately became stunned. Then she showed incredulous eyes.

She gasped, "How is it you?"

Ling Kong Leng's gaze fell on her exquisite face, which seemed more captivating than what he saw that day. He couldn't help remembering her appearance under him.

"Surprised?" Ling Kong Leng smiled faintly, "You don't seem to appreciate seeing me again."

"President Ling..." Jiang Xun appeared to have thought of something. She looked at Ling Kong Leng with some unacceptability, and tremblingly asked, "What is your relationship with Ling Chen?"

"I thought you already guessed it? Do you still need me to say it?" Ling Kong Leng walked towards her, step by step, staring at her as if he was staring at a prey and would throw her down and then swallow her into his belly the next second.

"You..." Jiang Xun said with difficulty, "Are you Ling Chen's father?"

Ling Kong Leng raised his eyebrows coldly. A rare smile appeared on his cold face, "Yes, don't we look alike?"

Jiang Xun kind of wanted to say that apart from his youthfulness that didn't seem to fit a father, he and Ling Chen did appear quite similar. However Ling Chen indeed wasn't as attractive as him.

Jiang Xun calmed herself down. She took a deep breath, and said in a low tone, "Sorry, I won't be interviewing anymore."

After she finished speaking, she turned to leave, but was pulled back by Ling Kong Leng. Her wrists were thin along with having a small frame as if she could break it with the slightest bit of force. So once he successfully pulled her back, he relaxed his grip.

"You have already been hired." Ling Kong stared into her eyes. His eyes were placid, giving off an irresistible temptation, "The president's translating assistant, that is, my accompanying assistant."

Jiang Xun was stunned, but she quickly rejected, "I refuse, I don't want to take this job."

She struggled to pull her hand out of his.

"There's no point in refusing, I think it's better for you to sit down first." Ling Kong Leng already knew she wouldn't agree to it, so he wasn't surprised. Then he let go of her hand.

"I'm leaving now." Jiang Xun became a little agitated, and started walking toward the door.

"Ling Chen doesn't know we've met, right?" Ling Kong Leng lightly said behind her.

Jiang Xun's footsteps stopped. She turned around, "What do you mean?"

"It's really unexpected for me to have that sort of relationship with my son's girlfriend." There was no joy or anger in Ling Kong Leng's voice, and Jiang Xun couldn't guess what he meant.

"That was just an accident, it shouldn't have happened in the first place." Jiang Xun lowered her head. Her expression became a little ugly.

"Why? Do you find it unacceptable?" Ling Kong Leng narrowed his eyes.

"Of course, I don't know you at all, then that kind of thing happened..." Jiang Xun trailed off near the end, unable to continue any further. Her twinkling eyes gleaming, revealing some hint of weakness.

His favorite part was her magical eyes, as if she was different from her outward appearance. He could see something special in her eyes, which was different from all the other women he had seen. He wasn't able to see her heart through her eyes. In fact, he would even get sucked into them.

These eyes were the most unforgettable pair he has ever seen.

"But since the accident has happened, shouldn't it be said we are destined?" Ling Kong Leng said pointedly.

"I will forget about it." Jiang Xun whispered.

"Can you really forget who you gave your first time to?" Ling Kong Leng sneered. His voice was somewhat sarcastic, even though it was unspeakably sultry.

"You!" Jiang Xun blushed with shame.

"What? I'm not wrong. Can you forget giving your virginity to your boyfriend's father too?" Ling Kong Leng laughed mockingly.

Jiang Xun's face flushed red and couldn't refute him. An aggrieved and injured eyes materialized on her face as she glared at Ling Kong Leng.

Her current appearance brought Ling Kong Leng back to his memories as the way she glanced at him reminded him of that night. His lower abdomen tightened, and he even felt something harden.

His face darkened. He was dissatisfied with his reaction.

"What do you want?" Jiang Xun seemed to be unable to take it anymore and was unable to restrain her emotions.

"You don't want Ling Chen to find out about this, right? So, now come and sit down." Ling Kong Leng lowered his voice and gently offered.

Jiang Xun looked at him in shock, "Why are you doing this?"

Hearing her words, Ling Kong Leng laughed in a low voice, thinking that she was indeed still young to say this.

Why are you doing this? So what?

He has been working his way up the business world for many years. To him, blackmailing and coercing people was considered an everyday occurrence for him. Was she still counting on him to be a saint?

He already had been merciful to her, otherwise she wouldn't have only met him now.

Naturally Ling Kong Leng wouldn't tell her what he was thinking. So he just smiled mirthlessly and pointed to the seat next to him, "Come here."

Jiang Xun hesitated. However she still slowly moved and took a deep breath before sitting down beside him, though she kept little distance between them.

Ling Kong Leng stared at her with that pair of eagle-like eyes, giving her a sense of urgency that she had nowhere to hide, along with a little embarrassment, because his eyes didn't hide his interest for her.

She dodged his gaze, "What do you really want? Are you actually going to tell Ling Chen? Aren't you afraid that he won't be able to stand it?"

"What do you think?" Ling Kong Leng smirked, "You were together with him, haven't you heard him talk about me?"

Although Ling Kong Leng and Ling Chen are father and son, they didn't have any deep feelings. When Ling Kong Leng had this cheap son of his when he was about sixteen or seventeen, he threw him directly to the family's elders. He never took care of him personally. At age twenty, he started throwing himself into paving his own career. The time he spent with Ling Chen wouldn't exceed five days a year, and even then Ling Kong Leng was exceptionally indifferent to him.

Although Ling Chen was also a favorite son of the heaven with him being the focus of attention and outstanding in all aspects since he was a child, he still held an intuitive fear of Ling Kong Leng.

In the original owner's memories, the few times Ling Chen did mention Ling Kong Leng to her, he had described his deeds to be legendary. It can be seen from his words that Ling Chen was quite proud of Ling Kong Leng. At the same time, he was also afraid when he spoke of him. Therefore the original owner always thought Ling Kong Leng was a strict uncle. When she later saw Ling Kong Leng, she was taken back.

"Do you think I care if he can't stand it? I'm afraid the only one I care about is you." Ling Kong Lenng continued unconcerned.

"Then what do you want me to do so you don't tell Ling Chen?" Jiang Xun asked.

"You passed the interview. Right now, you are my accompanying translator. I hope you are prepared for a business trip the following week." Ling Kong Leng replied.

"Business trip?"

"Yes." Ling Kong Leng watched the expression on her face changing back and forth, finding it rather interesting.

"Where?"

"Secretary Lin will inform you. If you head out now, he'll escort you to apply for employment. You can officially start working this afternoon."

"This fast?" Jiang Xun exclaimed, astonished.

"Is there a problem?" Ling Kong Leng glanced at her meaningfully.

Jiang Xun could only say, "No, then I can go out now?"

"En." Ling Kong Leng said faintly.

Jiang Xun let out a sigh of relief. She stood up, and started leaving as if fleeing.

Ling Kong Leng peered at her, "Half an hour later, I expect you in my office again."

Her body froze, "Is there anything else?"

"There are some documents you need to translate." Ling Kong Leng answered casually.

For a second, Jiang Xun paused, and then she reluctantly nodded, "I understand."

Obviously, she was unhappy. It was impossible for Ling Kong Leng to not recognize it. However, the more she was like this, the more interested and curious Ling Kong Leng became in Jiang Xun.

Heading out the door, Jiang Xun fluttered her eyes as she was a little excited. When Ling Kong Leng threatened her, she almost burst into laughter internally. Fortunately, she had a fine control on her internal and external appearance. Her face didn't show any of her true emotions, otherwise she would have failed.

She couldn't imagine how awkward the scene would be if she laughed just now...

Jiang Xun supported herself against the wall to ease her emotions for a while before quickly recovering. Her face was a little melancholy and distressed, like she was upset but still forcefully pulled herself together.

...

Having Secretary Lin accompany her, the formalities were quickly completed. The speed did surprise her. For a large company like Ling Yuan Group, the employment process was actually quite troublesome, but Secretary Lin seemed to take her to open the green channel for her. She was priority wherever she went, so in less than half an hour, she really returned to Ling Kong Leng's office.

She also thought about arriving there late, giving the domineering president an excuse to give her a punishment for being late... … However, Secretary Lin seemed to have been ordered to send her back in half an hour, so he was rather proactive in taking her to the President's Office. Only when they arrived at the door, did he leave.

She knocked on the door like Secretary Lin and waited for a bit before pushing the door open. Ling Kong Leng was currently looking through some files at her desk. Hearing the sound of the door closed, he glanced up at her, "You're done?"

"En."

"Come over here."

Jiang Xun hesitated for two seconds.

"I don't like repeating things a second time." Ling Kong Leng put down the file. He clasped his hands together on the desk, and looked straight at her.

Jiang Xun pursed her mouth as she walked over, and said in an unpleasant tone, "What instruction does President Ling have for me?"

For a split-second, Ling Kong froze. He imperceptibly raised his eyebrows, "You seem to be very dissatisfied with me?"

The author has something to say:

Jiang Xun: Come over and domineering kabedon me, give me a sweet punishment!

​Ling Kong Leng: I want to see her crying underneath me.

Ling Chen: Have you guys forgotten my existence?

Duan Qing Chu: There's also me, I have been behind you, silently guarding you this entire time…
