After the morning shoot concluded, Shi Lan returned to the hotel and logged into Yan's private email on her laptop to handle some of his corporate affairs.

Yan never delegated his tasks to others, not out of habit nor because he had someone he could trust, except for the young lady. She was not only qualified but also capable.

"But haven't we been in meetings all afternoon?" The assistant scratched his head, puzzled.

"I have a capable wife," Mr. Yan said with a hint of pride.
