Upon hearing Ling Feng's voice, Chu Yihan's expression immediately returned to one of cold severity.
He ignored Ling Feng, bowed his head, and continued to review company documents.
Only a few words in, his mind started to wander, and suddenly he lifted his chiseled face. "Did Jianhui Group send someone to inquire about my schedule last month?"
"More than last month. Since last year, this company has been trying to establish a connection with you, Fourth Master. They send people every month to ask about your schedule. With their swimwear brand doing well, they've become too arrogant for their own good. Do you, Fourth Master, meet with just anybody? Rest assured, Fourth Master, you won't hear from this company again. I will make sure they understand their place."
In fact, countless companies attempt to book a meeting with Fourth Master every month, but generally, such requests never reach him. Those that do make it, have employed quite a few tactics.
Usually, companies like these meet with no good fate.
Dare to use tactics on Fourth Master, who do they think they are, Su Ge?
Fourth Master certainly has never been courteous to anyone other than Su Ge.
"Clear one hour in my schedule for tomorrow afternoon, arrange a meeting with the head of Jianhui Group."
Chu Yihan dropped this sentence and bowed his head to continue with the paperwork.
"Ah?"
Ling Feng's mouth gaped wide enough to fit an egg.
Fourth Master wants to meet with someone from Jianhui Group?
That swimwear brand company that just went public last year, they are worthy of meeting Fourth Master?
Ling Feng dared not question, nor did he dare disobey Chu Yihan's orders.
But he found Chu Yihan's behavior extremely unusual.
This Jianhui Group... doesn't match Fourth Master's level of sophistication.
Could it be that Fourth Master... wants to buy swimwear?
He must be crazy!
He must be insane to even have such a thought about Fourth Master!
Fourth Master is definitely not the sort of person who would wear swimwear!
Ling Feng turned his head to glance at the tightly closed study door. Nope, even if Fourth Master doted on Su Ge, he wouldn't lose his principles like this.
Su Ge spent the whole afternoon cooped up in her room.
It wasn't until it was almost dinner time that she went downstairs.
The kitchen had prepared a lavish dinner, and as Su Ge arrived, the cook was holding a dish, ready to serve.
Upon seeing Su Ge, everyone was startled, setting down the dish and bowing their heads, not daring to make a sound.
Su Ge observed everyone's reaction and took a moment to reflect.
Having lived in the Chu Family for two years, she had done many detestable things.
To make Chu Yihan go hungry, she'd smash the kitchen up during meal times, it seems at least once a month?
Judging by this month, it seems to be about that time.
So these people think she came to smash the kitchen?
Su Ge felt a bit of a headache coming on.
In the end, she was reaping what she sowed, she had to bear the consequences.
Steeling herself, she walked up to the cooks and started somewhat sheepishly, "Um, the reason I'm here is..."
"Lady, please show mercy."
Before Su Ge could finish, all the cooks knelt before her.
Every time the Lady smashed up the kitchen, Fourth Master would get particularly angry.
If the kitchen failed to prepare a satisfactory meal for the Lady in time, Fourth Master would drive all the cooks away.
Ever since the Lady moved into the Chu Family, the cooks have been changed several times.
They did not want to be sent away.
"I, um... I'm not here to..." Su Ge looked at everyone's despairing faces, realizing an explanation would be useless; she simply raised her hands in surrender, "Alright, I'm showing mercy, my hands are lifted, can you all stand up now?"
In the past, she had done everything she could to make Chu Yihan dislike her.
In fact, she... still had some conscience left.
