“Don’t move…”

Ning Ruxing was talking in her sleep. In her dream, a heavy python was wrapped around her body, its tail tightly wrapped around her legs while its huge head was on her arm. The python’s body was very cold. Ning Ruxing would have this same dream every few days so she was already used to it. Instead of panicking, Ning Ruxing turned around and hugged the python as she continued to sleep.

The next day, Ning Ruxing heard her alarm go off and quickly sat up to turn it off. After all, her other three roommates were still sleeping. Ning Ruxing gently got out of bed, washed up, and changed her clothes. As a third-year student, it was now time for an internship – everyone was looking for a job.

Only Ning Ruxing’s three roommates didn’t need one because they were rich and beautiful. Their families had some form of huge fortune waiting for them to inherit, so they didn’t need to work at all. In this dormitory, only Ning Ruxing needed an internship. Ning Ruxing picked up the resume she had prepared and looked at herself in the mirror.

The girl looking back at her had delicate features, fair skin, and a pair of brown eyes that made one’s heart skip a beat. Her long hair was tied into a simple ponytail. At 8:30 in the morning, Ning Ruxing had already arrived at the capital’s most bustling commercial street. She walked into the elevator with many white-collared workers. This was the company Ning Ruxing was going to interview with, Sen Ran!

Sen Ran was currently a relatively large trading company in the capital city, often dealing with international business. The company’s president was Jin Yebei, and because of his prince-like temperament and huge wealth, he unexpectedly became popular on the internet, becoming the male God in the hearts of many young girls who dreamed of one day marrying Jin Yebei. Ning Ruxing came here not to marry this famous Chairman, but to…

“Ning Ruxing!”

Ning Ruxing, who had been sitting and waiting, immediately stood up when she heard her name being called. She walked into the Chairman’s office which had large floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing the entire office to be filled with sunlight. Ning Ruxing had not expected a Chairman’s office to be simple. There was a genuine leather sofa, a desk, and only a few bookshelves.

The Human Resources lady placed Ning Ruxing’s resume and supporting documents on the desk and walked out. Ning Ruxing looked up and saw the man at the desk. He was wearing a simple white shirt that was buttoned up to the top. His body was bathed in sunshine, illuminating his fair skin. When he picked up the resume on the desk, he had a prideful look in his eyes while the rest of his body language exuded a cold aura. He did not seem very approachable.

Generally speaking, those who came to Sen Ran for an interview would not see Jin Yebei. But Ning Ruxing applied for the position of the Chairman’s Assistant, so Jin Yebei would interview her himself. It was not Ning Ruxing’s first time seeing Jin Yebei. She had seen him on screen before. But it was her first time meeting him in person and now that she was there, he looked even more handsome than she remembered.

Jin Yebei also noticed something. He sniffed the air carefully and realized there was an incredible scent. It was so fragrant and he could not remember how long it had been since he smelled such a pure scent of flowers in someone’s blood. ‘The last time I smelled it was many years ago. Could it be that…?’

Jin Yebei looked up at the girl in front of him. His sharp eyes intimidated Ning Ruxing, as if he had heard her thoughts. She quickly calmed down and looked at Jin Yebei. Jin Yebei coldly said, “Introduce yourself.”

Ning Ruxing heaved an internal sigh of relief. Fortunately, her thoughts remain private to her. Otherwise, she would have failed today’s interview. Ning Ruxing calmed herself down, then revealed a confident smile. Today’s interview must be successful. With a clear and sweet voice, Ning Ruxing confidently said,

“I’m Ning Ruxing, a third-year student at Capital University…”

When he heard her voice, Jin Yebei remembered something that was left out of her resume: three years ago, she was the top science scorer in Shanghai. This made Jin Yebei very satisfied. Jin Yebei gently knocked on the desk, the corner of his mouth revealing a smile. Jin Yebei asked, “Age?”

When Ning Ruxing heard this question, she stopped for a moment. As she was still very young, she was a little reluctant to reveal her age. Moreover, it was already stated on the resume, so why did he still ask? Didn’t he know that asking a woman’s age was impolite? Still, for the sake of her work, Ning Ruxing answered honestly.

“Twenty-one.”
