3: Chapter 3 I Have a Job 3: Chapter 3 I Have a Job CEO’s Office Su Qingyu, let me tell you, today a handsome guy came to apply for a position in our public relations department.” An Lan was sitting on the office sofa, chatting with Su Qingyu. “With all the beauties in your PR department, of course it could attract rapists,” Su Qingyu joked. She was quite familiar with the PR department. Among ten men who interviewed for the PR department, nine were there for the pretty girls. As the CEO, she has always been very concerned about the company’s employees and also very strict. It’s this combination of firmness and gentleness that has allowed Tianya Group to thrive as it does now. But if she knew that “rapist” was her own husband, Su Qingyu guessed she’d feel quite depressed. “So, did he pass the test?” “Mhm, and he passed with a perfect score. His knowledge of some products even surpasses mine.” “Really? That impressive.” Su Qingyu had nothing but praise for An Lan’s level of expertise. She was considered the brain of the entire corporation. And now she admitted someone was even more formidable, which astounded Su Qingyu. “What’s even weirder is, when I asked him about his education background, he actually said he didn’t graduate from high school, and it didn’t seem like he was lying,” An Lan said seriously while looking at Su Qingyu. Didn’t graduate from high school... At this point, Su Qingyu’s mind conjured up the face of Ye Shikai. She had learned about Ye Shikai’s background from her brother, Su Pengzhan. He had dropped out of high school to enlist in the military. As for his experiences after retiring, Su Pengzhan was in the dark. Even though Su Pengzhan had been looking for Ye Shikai nonstop for the three years since his retirement, it was only recently that he found out Ye Shikai was in Europe, and then he notified Ye Shikai to return to Huaxia for marriage. “Qingyu, what are you thinking about?” An Lan saw Su Qingyu with her head down, seemingly deep in thought. “Nothing... I’m going to head back now, Lanlan, it’s getting late,” Su Qingyu came back to her senses and spoke to An Lan. “Alright then, be careful on your way home.” After parting ways with Su Qingyu, An Lan returned to the public relations department’s office. At the restaurant “Boss, how much for three servings?” Ye Shikai looked at his wallet and cursed silently for forgetting to ask An Lan for meal money. One serving for An Lan, one for himself, and thinking of his busy wife probably not having eaten yet, he planned to take one for his wife as well. “A hundred for three servings,” the boss said. Damn, he only had enough for two servings. After some thought, Ye Shikai decided to skip his meal. He couldn’t let his wife go hungry, so he only bought two servings from the boss. At this time, Su Qingyu had returned to Lishi Garden. Upon opening the door, Nanny Wu came to greet her. “Miss, are you hungry? Shall I make dinner for you?” “Sure, by the way, has Ye Shikai come back yet?” Su Qingyu looked around the empty living room. “Not yet. The young master must be busy with something, I guess. I’ll also prepare a portion for him.” Nanny Wu liked Ye Shikai a lot. By lunchtime, she could tell that the young master was a very straightforward person, without pretense. She had witnessed many who pursued her mistress, and they all seemed rather insincere. Knowing Ye Shikai hadn’t come back yet, Su Qingyu was a bit angry. After all, this was his home. Wasn’t he supposed to return on the first day? Busy with work at the company, she thought this guy, who had neither jobs nor friends in Yanjing, must have gone to a bar for fun by this late hour or might even secretly seek out prostitutes behind her back. How could she ever marry such a person? Thinking of this, Su Qingyu was fuming, “Forget about him, that freeloader.” Seeing Miss agitated, Nanny Wu immediately stepped forward to persuade her, “Miss, don’t speak that way about your husband. No matter what, he is still your spouse. He might have really run into some trouble.” Su Qingyu snorted coldly. What trouble could this guy be in? She was already dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by her father. If it wasn’t for Su Pengzhan threatening to sever their father-daughter relationship, how could she have willingly married Ye Shikai? The love she yearned for was sacred, and her partner had to be outstanding. But Ye Shikai now was nothing like what she had hoped for. “Honey, I’m back,” Ye Shikai opened the door and said to Su Qingyu at the dining table. He had just finished delivering food to An Lan and rushed home, worried that the food would get cold. “So you know to come back, you remember you have a home?” Su Qingyu mocked, her tone revealing her dissatisfaction. “Honey, what are you talking about? How could I forget I have a home? Look, I even brought back food for you.” Saying this, he took out a meal from inside his clothes. He had wrapped the food box with his outer coat, worried the food would get cold. Su Qingyu glanced at the food in Ye Shikai’s hand. Perhaps she really did misunderstand him, but even so, she wouldn’t apologize. As the queen of the business world, she had always been in a position of power. To apologize of her own accord was utterly impossible. However, remembering that Ye Shikai’s father had saved her own father’s life and that she had indeed misunderstood Ye Shikai, Su Qingyu still felt a twinge of guilt. No matter what, he was her husband now, and it was wrong for her to treat him this way. After dinner, Su Qingyu sat on the sofa and glanced at Ye Shikai, who was still eating. She said, “Come to my company tomorrow. I’ll arrange a job for you in the security department.” Indeed, Su Qingyu really didn’t like Ye Shikai. To her, this marriage was a mistake, but the man before her was her husband now. She couldn’t just ignore his well-being. Upon hearing this, Ye Shikai almost spewed out his food. The icy CEO was actually offering to help him find a job spontaneously, which warmed his heart a bit. Su Qingyu was actually concerned about him. “No need. I’ve already found a job with a salary of over six thousand. I won’t have to ask you for money anymore.” “Is it because of what I said today? Actually, if you really have no money, I would give it to you, after all... my dad told me to look after you.” Su Qingyu felt somewhat bashful; after all, what she had said at noon was truly hurting to one’s self-esteem. She wasn’t heartless, and besides, Ye Shikai was still legally her husband. Ye Shikai heaved a sigh, it was apparent that Su Qingyu thought her words had wounded his pride. That’s why Ye Shikai lied to her that he had found a job, which put him in a situation where he could laugh and cry at the same time. He really did find a job, yet when he told the truth, no one believed it. Seeing Ye Shikai refuse firmly, Su Qingyu got a bit irritated. Treating kindness as a donkey’s liver and lungs, she turned around and went upstairs to rest. Hearing a “bang” as she slammed the door, Ye Shikai knew that his wife had misunderstood him again and got angry. He tidied up the dishes and followed upstairs. Looking at the door of Su Qingyu’s room, Ye Shikai kept sighing. When will he be able to share a room with his wife? Of course, Ye Shikai was well aware that this was absolutely impossible at the moment. Turning around, he opened his room door, sat on the bed, adjusted his breathing, and let his inner strength flow through his meridians. After one cycle, he felt refreshed. Opening his eyes, Ye Shikai felt his inner strength had grown a bit more. This strength, comprehended through years of battle, made Ye Shikai an absolute War God in combat. He wiped out the largest African mercenary organization, the Vipers, and later became known as the Netherworld King. His achievements made everyone in the European mercenary world tremble with fear; those who knew the Netherworld King dared not provoke him, lest they invoke the wrath of the God of Slaughter. For Ye Shikai, another important use of his inner strength was to suppress his Demon Addiction. This is Huaxia, an urban place, where if the Demon Addiction relapsed and wasn’t suppressed in time, the consequences would be unimaginable, especially now that he had a wife. If Su Qingyu was hurt because of this, Ye Shikai would never forgive himself.
