"Huh? They are..." Miao Shiyun quickly noticed Lin Hong and the others sitting at the same table with Luo Chao.

Unexpectedly, before Luo Chao could respond, Boss Yang stood up immediately. He extended a hand respectfully and said, "Miss Miao... Miss Miao, hello!"

Lin Hong and Da Zhi were somewhat surprised to see this scene.

Boss Yang usually acted superior in front of them because he was wealthy.

But they were very respectful to Boss Yang because he was a major client of their company, and maintaining a good relationship with him meant more bonuses for them.

They never imagined that the usually arrogant Boss Yang would show such a respectful demeanor in front of this beautiful young woman, even stuttering out of nervousness!

Miao Shiyun glanced at Boss Yang's outstretched hand but didn't shake it. Instead, with a puzzled look, she gently rubbed her temple and asked, "You are... have we met before?"

"Chairman Miao, you have so much on your plate that you forget. I'm Yang Wei, the owner of Xiongwai Trading Company. We met at a gathering earlier this year!" Boss Yang explained awkwardly.

"Oh... it's you." Miao Shiyun's "Oh" trailed off deliberately. She pretended to recognize him to avoid embarrassing Boss Yang.

In fact, it wasn't Miao Shiyun's fault. As a multi-billionaire, a busy female chairman, she attended many gatherings every year and met countless business owners.

Unless they were particularly prominent, she wouldn't remember them, especially not someone like Boss Yang with only several million in assets.

However, her actions were no less than covering her ears to deceive herself, as everyone present had already seen through it.

Especially Lin Hong and Da Zhi—they didn't expect that Boss Yang, who was usually so proud and unreachable, couldn't even leave an impression on this young woman.

This showed just how exalted this young woman's status and identity were!

Miao Shiyun's act of pretending to know Boss Yang also made him feel very awkward, so he could only laugh dryly and return to his seat.

Then, Miao Shiyun also took her seat, and she sat right next to Luo Chao.

"Miss Miao, I find the taste of this roast duck rather ordinary," Luo Chao said, using his chopsticks to point at a plate of roast duck on the table.

"This dish is officially called braised roast duck. If you don't pour the sauce over it, of course, you won't taste the authentic flavor!" With that, Miao Shiyun personally picked up a piece of duck, dipped it in the sauce, and then placed it in Luo Chao's bowl.

"Try it now, and it will definitely taste better than when you ate it dry!" Miao Shiyun said confidently.

Luo Chao put the roasted duck meat into his mouth and immediately gave a thumbs-up, "Not bad, it indeed tastes much better than before!"

Lin Hong and Da Zhi were again stunned by what they saw.

Who exactly was this young man? He could make this young woman, so high-profile that even Boss Yang fawned over her, personally serve him food!

Thinking about their earlier disparaging remarks about Luo Chao, Lin Hong and Da Zhi felt too ashamed to remain there.

So, they stood up and said to Boss Yang, "Boss Yang, why don't we go to another place to discuss business?"

However, Boss Yang dismissively waved his hand and said, "No, I'll continue having dinner with Chairman Miao."

"Huh? But... Boss Yang, if we don't discuss it today, our superior will scold us, you know, the management at Meilong Group is very strict," Da Zhi said anxiously.

"Are you two dumb? Chairman Miao of your Meilong Group is right here. What do I need to discuss business with you for?" Boss Yang said impatiently.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lin Hong and Da Zhi were stunned.

Chairman Miao?

So, this young woman in front of them was their company's biggest boss, Chairman Miao Shiyun?!

They were utterly dumbfounded.

Although they were employees of Meilong Group, they only knew their chairman's name was Miao Shiyun and had never seen her in person due to their low rank.

However, Boss Yang said that this young woman was Chairman Miao, and their chairman was dining with Luo Chao and Gu Yanxi, looking quite intimate!

All at once, their hearts were like a jar of mixed emotions, filled with regret, fear, and humiliation.

Upon hearing Boss Yang's words, Miao Shiyun looked up in surprise and examined Lin Hong and Da Zhi carefully, "So you two are my company's employees. What a coincidence! Which department are you in?"

"Re... Reporting to Chairman Miao, we are both from the marketing department," Da Zhi said, trembling.

Lin Hong lowered her head even more, not daring to look Miao Shiyun in the eye, because if she looked at Miao Shiyun, she would see Luo Chao and Gu Yanxi sitting with her.

"Haha, what a coincidence. Let me introduce you to your new marketing department head, Miss Gu Yanxi," Miao Shiyun suddenly announced.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yanxi's eyes lit up with surprise, and she excitedly wanted to stand up and give a big formal bow to thank Miao Shiyun.

However, Miao Shiyun's hand under the table was tightly holding Gu Yanxi's hand, giving her a look of trust.

In fact, the scene earlier where Lin Hong and Da Zhi mocked Luo Chao and Gu Yanxi had already been seen by Miao Shiyun from the corner of the stairs. She just didn't directly come forth.

Of course, Luo Chao had noticed this all along, which is why he didn't say much from start to finish.

Because from the beginning, Luo Chao knew they would bring shame unto themselves!

But when Luo Chao heard that these two were employees of Meilong Group, he knew their situation was far worse than just self-inflicted humiliation; it would end terribly for them.

Miao Shiyun's hold made Gu Yanxi instantly understand her meaning, so she quietly wiped away her grateful tears.

Rumble!

Meanwhile, upon hearing Miao Shiyun's words, Lin Hong and Da Zhi felt like a bolt from the blue struck them overhead.

They couldn't help but sigh at the fickle nature of fate—like the shifting tides over thirty years, roles and statuses change hands.

Especially Lin Hong, who didn't expect that Gu Yanxi, just mocked relentlessly by her moments ago, would become her department's superior in an instant!

This meant that from now on, unless she and Da Zhi gave up the generous benefits at Meilong Group and resigned, their professional paths would become a challenging journey straight down to Hell…
