Chapter 119: Chapter 119: It Doesn’t Matter

Casually lifting his head, Fu Yihan glanced at him and asked indifferently, "Just one copy?"

"Yes, just one copy."

Taking the document, Fu Yihan pulled out a pen from who-knows-where and boldly signed his name.

Manager Huang hesitated slightly before asking, "Mr. Fu, aren’t you going to check it first?"

"There’s nothing worth checking." Fu Yihan handed the document back to Manager Huang with an unconcerned tone. "It’s not like it’s some big deal."

"Exactly..." Manager Huang gave a bitter smile. "Our company hasn’t had any big deals in a long time."

Seeing the hopeful look in his eyes, Fu Yihan curved his lips, his expression ambiguous as he looked at him.

"Don’t worry, it’ll come."

Manager Huang, confronted with Fu Yihan’s optimism, found himself speechless, silently accepting the document and turning to leave.

When he saw Su Qingnuan standing by the doorway, Manager Huang snapped back to reality and turned around once more.

"Mr. Fu, you and this Miss Su are...?"

"Nothing at all." Fu Yihan’s expression turned cold. "She’s just here to help."

"...Understood."

Manager Huang respectfully bowed and left.

Passing by Su Qingnuan, Manager Huang greeted her with a smile.

"You’re Su Qingnuan, right? I still remember from your self-introduction last time."

"Yes, Manager Huang." Su Qingnuan smiled lightly. "I didn’t expect you to remember me. I’m deeply honored."

Manager Huang chuckled, glanced back toward Fu Yihan’s direction, and whispered, "The task of taking care of Mr. Fu, I’ll leave it to you. Good luck!"

"Will do, thank you, Manager Huang."

After seeing Manager Huang off, Su Qingnuan exhaled slightly in relief.

The way Manager Huang had looked at her earlier was rather odd. Luckily, he was gone now, so she no longer had to deal with that gaze.

Turning back, she found the man still watching television.

Quietly, she tiptoed over and sat down beside him.

"I heard you went to see Manager Huang personally to ask about the intern issue?"

The sudden question caught Su Qingnuan off guard for a moment.

Realizing what he said, she turned to him in surprise.

"How did Mr. Fu know?"

"Not only do I know, but the entire company’s upper management is aware."

"..." Su Qingnuan smiled awkwardly. "It wasn’t really my intention. It’s just that the task assigned by the instructor was honestly unreasonable, so Xiaoxiao and I decided to see Manager Huang."

Setting down the remote control, Fu Yihan eyed Su Qingnuan, noticing her hand already gripping the hem of her clothes.

Frowning slightly, his tone turned cold. "What are you nervous about?"

"Huh? I’m... I’m not nervous."

Su Qingnuan clutched her clothes tighter, smiling faintly. "I just suddenly don’t know how to respond to that."

Raising an eyebrow, Fu Yihan replied, "Just answer as it is. Or do you think I’ll make things difficult for you?"

"No... not at all."

Seeing how tense she was, with her head nearly bowed to the ground, Fu Yihan frowned even deeper.

Was he really that scary?

Retracting his gaze, his voice grew even colder. "Forget it. You can go now."

"Huh?" Su Qingnuan exclaimed in shock. "But A-Qi hasn’t returned yet."

"If he hasn’t returned, he hasn’t returned. It’s not like I have no hands; I can manage on my own."

With that, Fu Yihan turned and wheeled himself inside.

"Bang—"

The door shut heavily.

Staring at the closed door, Su Qingnuan felt a bit helpless. Had she said something wrong again?

She had intended to say something pleasant to make Fu Yihan happy, but it seemed to have backfired.

With a soft sigh, Su Qingnuan got up and turned off the television.

She didn’t leave but sat quietly in the living room, listening to the movements in the other room until A-Qi returned.

"Young Madam?" A-Qi looked at Su Qingnuan in confusion before glancing around. "Where’s the Eldest Young Master?"

Pointing toward his bedroom, Su Qingnuan replied helplessly, "He went in. A moment ago, he got upset again for some reason."

"Upset again?" A-Qi said with even more confusion. "What did you do to make Mr. Fu angry this time?"

Su Qingnuan shook her head bitterly. "I don’t know either."

If she knew, it wouldn’t have happened again.

Seeing her helpless expression, A-Qi chuckled. "Young Madam, actually, the Eldest Young Master is quite easy to please."

"Hmm?" Su Qingnuan looked at him in surprise. "How so?"

Handing the takeout box to her, A-Qi whispered, "Why don’t you send it in to him?"

"..."

Staring at the takeout for a while, Su Qingnuan shook her head.

"Forget it. He’s already upset. If I go in there, I’ll only irritate him more."

"It’s okay. Trust me."

With that, A-Qi pushed the food container toward her.

But Fu Yihan paused and shook her head firmly. "No, now that you’re back, it’s better if you take it in."

She took a step back, her reluctance evident.

A-Qi looked at her for a moment before sighing. "Fine. Well, thank you for your help today, Young Madam."

"You’re welcome."

Su Qingnuan forced a smile, sidestepping A-Qi and heading for the door. "Since you’re back, I’ll take my leave."

"Alright."

Watching Su Qingnuan leave, A-Qi turned to knock on Fu Yihan’s door.

The tightly closed door opened slowly, revealing Fu Yihan behind it.

"Eldest Young Master, lunch has arrived."

Fu Yihan’s lips curled slightly in a cold smile. "You went quite far."

A-Qi nodded respectfully. "As per your instructions, I went to your favorite place."

Having nothing more to say, Fu Yihan wheeled himself out.

His eyes instinctively swept the room but did not see her, and his expression darkened.

Noticing this, A-Qi whispered, "The Young Madam said she still had work this afternoon, so she left first."

"Hmph! The records room can’t spin without her?"

A-Qi said nothing, his face blank as he began unpacking the food container.

"Eldest Young Master, come eat."

"Hmm."

...

Su Qingnuan returned to the records room and saw Gu Xiaoxiao bustling about. She hurried over to help.

"Qingnuan?" Gu Xiaoxiao paused, quickly approaching and whispering, "Where have you been? Do you know we’ve been looking for you everywhere!"

"Looking for me?" Su Qingnuan asked in confusion. "What for? I just found a spot to take a nap."

"...Look at the time. What do you think I was looking for you for?"

Su Qingnuan glanced at her watch and realized it was already past three.

So she had overslept.

Hurriedly, she put things down and whispered, "I overslept. I’ll go apologize to the boss."

"...No need." Gu Xiaoxiao grabbed her and said helplessly, "Someone already took care of that for you."

"Huh?" Su Qingnuan froze. "Who? Who helped me?"

"...A-Qi."

Gu Xiaoxiao knew A-Qi too, but she couldn’t understand why he had stepped in to handle this for Su Qingnuan. Could it be the person on that side missed Su Qingnuan?

Thinking along these lines, Gu Xiaoxiao suddenly leaned closer to Su Qingnuan with a sly grin. "Be honest, did your family’s Eldest Young Master come to see you?"
