Chapter 191: Chapter 184: The Cold Beauty’s Lighter

The grating sound of the door opening echoed in the silent meeting room, attracting everyone’s attention.

"Um?"

Some high-level executives frowned, could someone be late? Who dares to be late to General Manager Li’s meeting, isn’t he afraid of being fired?

No, that’s not right!

Suddenly, the executives realized something, exchanging looks; today, everyone had arrived on time, no one was late!

Then why would someone still be opening the meeting room door? Could it be the technician changing the water cooler jug or the cleaning lady?

That shouldn’t be the case either! Everyone at Wanyan Company knows the rule: as long as General Manager Li enters the meeting room, no one else is allowed or needed inside!

Regardless of who it is, being late to a meeting is a death sentence, and barging into the meeting room is another!

Except for being fired, there is no other consequence!

Faced with the high salary and benefits offered by Wanyan Company, no idiot would dare to defy the rules set by General Manager Li, and everyone knows that General Manager Li is a woman who greatly values efficiency, no one dares to upset her over this fundamental principle.

Inside the meeting room, everyone’s eyes turned towards the door, many of whom wore a hint of schadenfreude, curious to see who the unlucky one was who came late, or who accidentally barged in.

Just then, the conference room door opened, and a young, handsome man came in; he wore a casual smile and was dressed in a simple white hoodie, appearing by his demeanor and age to not belong in the corporate world.

"Not from our company? Just wandered in?"

Someone frowned, and now Goddess Li was definitely going to be furious; this boy was in for a tough time!

However, contrary to what everyone expected, when Li Xiaoman saw this handsome young man, her face showed no anger, but rather, a gentle smile emerged, and her beautiful eyes tenderly lingered on him.

"Cough cough, sorry everyone, I’m late."

Bai Yan coughed, smiled at everyone, then walked over to the boss chair beside Li Xiaoman and sat down nonchalantly.

"..."

A dead silence fell.

People inside the meeting room were stunned, staring at Bai Yan.

Where did this damn kid come from? How dare he sit in Goddess Li’s seat!

Could he be a newcomer from some department?

Do we have such a person in our company?

Obviously, people did not recognize Bai Yan; the times he had come to Wanyan Company to see Li Xiaoman were usually at night, so almost no high-level executives had seen him.

In their minds, the high-level managers desperately wanted to yell: "Who is this reckless young man, daring to act frivolously during a full meeting of company executives! Where did he spring out from!"

Everyone then looked back at Goddess Li’s expression; her eyes were constantly on the young man’s face.

In such a public setting, Li Xiaoman dared not show too strong affection, yet her restrained expression, to others, seemed like she was shocked into stupefaction.

Goddess staring at this boy so intently, could she like him? Impossible! She must have been shocked by this kid’s rash actions!

Someone couldn’t hold back anymore, he stood up and pointing at Bai Yan he frowned and said, "Which department are you from? Now it is the senior executives holding a meeting, how can you burst in! Also, is that a seat meant for you? Get out of here right now!"

The man who stood up to scold Bai Yan carried a hint of arrogance, thinking Li Xiaoman must have been frightened stupid by this brash young man’s actions and believing he was helping out the damsel in distress; he thought he would make a deep impression in Li Xiaoman’s heart.

Li Xiaoman paused, was there really someone who dared to scold Bai Yan in Wanyan Company? Are you tired of living?

Bai Yan was also a bit stunned, as the president, it was his first time attending a meeting here, and someone was telling him to get out?

This is truly a year of wonders; this year particularly so!

"You, who are you?"

Bai Yan looked him over, a decent young man, well-dressed and somewhat handsome, but his gaze on Li Xiaoman revealed an unabashed adoration, which really annoyed Bai Yan.

"Me?"

The young man arrogantly smirked, "I am Minister Liu from the sales department of Wanyan Company. Which department’s newbie are you? Is the conference room a place you can just barge into? Get out of here now!"

Minister Liu’s face displayed pride. To outsiders, just mentioning that he was part of the management at Wanyan Company would fetch envious glances.

The wealth and influence of Wanyan Company in HZ city were well-known! At this moment, in the HZ city’s business world, there wasn’t a single person who didn’t desire to work at Wanyan.

This high-paying job brought Minister Liu much glory, even repeatedly making him the center of attention at college reunions and earning him numerous beautiful female admirers.

"Minister Liu?"

Bai Yan raised an eyebrow, smiled, and said, "Good, very good."

"You, get out!"

Bai Yan pointed at the door, saying indifferently, "From now on, you are no longer a part of Wanyan Company."

"What did you say!"

Minister Liu’s nose twisted in anger as he jumped up and yelled, pointing at Bai Yan: "Say that again, you dare to ask me to get out?"

"Which department’s newbie is this? How could he be so disrespectful!"

Minister Liu yelled at the others; department heads from other departments looked at each other in confusion; no one recognized this guy.

"Humph!"

Minister Liu sneered, pointing at Bai Yan, "A brat whose hair hasn’t even grown fully, daring to run wild in my Wanyan Company? Get out now, or I’ll make you regret it!"

Bai Yan gave a carefree laugh, and Li Xiaoman frowned, she wanted to scold Minister Liu but was stopped by Bai Yan.

Bai Yan leaned back in the boss chair, eyeing Minister Liu with interest.

To be honest, Bai Yan’s mentality was already different from before. He could understand Minister Liu suddenly trying to show off, but to Bai Yan, it seemed somewhat childish.

At different heights, one perceives issues differently.

"So tell me, how do you plan on making me regret?"

Bai Yan said with a smile, digging into his pocket for a cigarette only to realize he had left An Xiaowan’s lighter at home.

Having cigarettes but no lighter is a torment for a smoker!

There’s a saying that goes: offering a cigarette without a lighter is worse than cursing me.

Fortunately, Li Xiaoman focused her attention fully on Bai Yan. The obedient slave girl knew her position well, she was Bai Yan’s slave, and she had to provide whatever her master needed on time.

Li Xiaoman took out a delicate, small lighter from her pocket, gently lighting Bai Yan’s cigarette.

".....Hiss~!"

People in the conference room gasped in unison, everyone’s mouth agape, staring in shock at the scene.

The famously cold and proud Goddess Li, was actually tenderly and actively lighting a cigarette for this brat?

The most speechless part was that Goddess Li actually carried a lighter with her!!!

The Goddess never smoked, why would she have a lighter!

Who can tell me what’s going on!

Could it be that Goddess Li’s lighter was always prepared for this guy? That Goddess Li was just looking for a chance to show her attentiveness?

Everyone was dumbfounded!

Everyone was stupefied!

Their brains completely crashed!

This was the ice beauty on par with the President of Shen Zhou Group!

And she willingly approached a brat, so tenderly showing her attentiveness!!!
