Chapter 145 - A New Assistant

After the shameful defeat in hand to hand combat, Xu Likun gave a written apology to KSS and Ah Hai as well as personally apologized to Shi Ai,accepting her punishment. But due to the fact the both the competitions were not held and only one was held as well as Xu Likun's heartfelt apology,she was not forced to leave KSS.In reality, Xu Likun had been shocked and dejected at her loss unable to accept her defeat. She knew that she had been too emotional and would need to take a step back if she needed to win the war. It was better to lose a battle. 

As Ah Hai entered the office, he was greeted by Assistant Yang and an unknown woman behind the man. Paying no attention to the new presence,since the woman stood behind Yang,Ah Hai made his way to his office. Assistant Yang followed him and the girl followed him. Their next goal was to get Shi Ai established in the society as his wife.

Inside the office,Assistant Yang stepped forward reporting,"Master, the reports that you have been expecting have been mailed to you. I think you will be satisfied with the findings."

Understanding Yang's meaning,Ah Hai nodded and prepared to check the email but before that,Assistant Yang continued,"Sir,this is Yang Mei,your new assistant. I am training her for now but I have checked her credentials and I believe that she will fit well in this role. Ah Hai was already browsing the findings that Assistant Yang had reported in the email so only gave a perfunctory nod as acknowledgement. Assistant Yang gestured the woman to follow him and guided her through the pending files and obligations that she had to carry as Ah Hai's assistant. Yang felt that the girl had come as a blessing at this time. He had been so out of touch that he was actually finding the work over whelming. So he had divided the work. All office affairs would be handled by Yang Mei and he would handle all the work relating to Shi Ai's past. 

He looked at the young woman who was pouring over the files diligently. She was really good at the job and he was just glad that she had been reccomend to him. Her experience and background was just right. And he had also been covertly observing her reaction to Ah Hai when the man had entered. He was satisfied. Usually women tended to lose their bearings at the sight of the Long brothers and would cause future troubles for no reason. But she had maintained her composure,that in itself was commendable.

He also felt a special affinity for her since she possessed the same surname as him so he was specially gentle as he answered her questions. His musing was interrupted be Yang Mei as she called out to him saying,"Sir, I don't understand this point. This report here says that the mission is complete but there are notes and reminders underneath.. nodding at her intelligent question,Assistant Yang explained all the points and finally Yang Mei nodded in understanding.

Finally,Assistant Yang said,"Miss Yang,soon you are going to be known as Assistant Yang,I would urge you to be as diligent in your work every day as you are at present. Another thing I would remind you once more is please maintain your boundaries with the young master and follow the rules. As long as you are honest and committed,you will only receive success. Now is there anything that you want to ask?"

Yang Mei looked down at the file in front of her and then hesitatingly asked,"Sir,I..uh I heard some rumors about the boss when I joined today. That he is cold and threatening and one of the old employees was involved with him and then she had to fight his wife for him.."

This question almost made Assistant Yang doubt his choice and hd looked at Yang Mei again. Did she want to gossip? But he did not see anything other than basic curiosity so he answered,giving her the benefit of doubt for now.

"Miss Yang,the boss is a fair man as long as you do your job. If you mind your own business then you have no reason to fear. And now regarding the boss's wife, the employee in question was the sister of an old friend and had been used to leniency from the higher ups which made her forget her place and act willfully. You need to remember one thing in that regard, do not try to interfere in their relationship. Even if the boss is in the busiest of meetings and has strictly instructed you to not disturb,this is not valid on his wife. Even is she only wants to sneeze at him,you will let her. Now,is there anything else you want to know?"

Chastised, Yang Mei shook her head and turned her eyes back to the computer file. But the moment Assistant Yang had gone, Yang Mei's eyes glinted coldly. Not interfere? Her sole purpose in coming to this boring job was to find Ah Hai's weakness and separate her sister from such a sinister man. He was nine years older than her sister and they said they were childhood sweethearts! What a load of bull****. It was clear that the man had used his position and the fact that Shi Ai had no family to his advantage. Yang Mei was not going to let him exploit her sister anymore. She had already gained a piece of information, the man had a soft spot for Xu Likun,his comrade's sister. So did he have any other women that he carried a soft spot for? Until she found this,Yang Mei decided that she was going to use this opportunity to connect with her sister and gain her trust. And when the time came,she would separate them easily. With a slightly satisfied smirk,Yang Mei continued to do her job.
