You Qi’s world fell apart.
How could the young master of i Fei be a woman?
No, maybe it’s just an excess of estrogen secretion? The world has seen such cases before.
That’s why a man might exhibit too many feminine traits, but essentially remain a man.
A person whose beauty is indistinguishable between male and female is even more alluring.
You Qi harbored a hint of anticipation in his heart as he looked at that graceful silhouette by the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Does it matter whether I’m male or female?"
His voice was cool and ethereal, like jade beads falling onto a plate, lodious and entrancing, with a seemingly magical power to cleanse the soul.
"Of course, it makes a big difference. If the news of you being a woman spreads, the whole world will explode. Clearly, it’s a misunderstanding..."
The person turned around, just as a beam of bright light fell onto her face, bringing her captivating features vividly to life in an instant, as if a goddess had descended, her cold eyes rcilessly observing the world.
You Qi’s knees weakened, nearly collapsing to the ground.
"What, are you disappointed that I’m a woman?"
Her dark, deep eyes carried a cold mocking expression.
At this mont, You Qi could no longer deceive himself, as if struck by lightning.
Amos was indeed a woman.
His world had collapsed.
Worse yet, the opponent’s seemingly all-knowing gaze seed to have long been aware of his secrets, mocking him like a cat or dog.
You Qi suddenly thought of the most important point: he had uncovered such a significant secret; could he still leave the room alive?
Thinking about this, all color drained from You Qi’s face, nearly causing him to lose his balance.
"Mr. i Fei, I don’t know anything, haven’t seen anything. Just assu I never ca here today."
As he spoke, he turned to flee in haste.
"Stop." An indifferent voice sounded hauntingly from behind him, like the reaper’s scythe hooking around his neck in an instant.
You Qi trembled as he turned around, "Mr. i Fei, please spare . I know nothing and definitely won’t spread it. Spare my insignificant life."
The girl’s voice was full of disdain: "A life for a life, are you worth the effort?"
You Qi cautiously looked over: "But you..."
"I asked you to speak over the phone, fearing eavesdroppers, and you insisted on eting . Now that you’ve seen , you fear I’ll kill you because you know my secret? If you’d put these random thoughts into your work, you wouldn’t be so unsuccessful now."
The girl’s criticism was utterly rciless.
The words ’unsuccessful’ hit You Qi’s sore spot. He graduated from a prestigious foreign university with dual master’s degrees in finance, poised for a bright future, but his weakness was his love for leisure.
Previously, he was doing well at a major company but unfortunately lost his job due to negligence. Coincidentally, Amos was hiring, and he applied on a whim.
Who knew he’d be chosen? His sole job was to act as Amos’s spokesperson in Ouri, given Amos’s nurous businesses that he couldn’t manage alone, so he employed many professional managers like him.
Amos didn’t demand much, just stable developnt. On average, You Qi reported to Amos every six months, but Amos was so busy that he probably forgot about Ouri later.
Over ti, he beca complacent, and with fierce internal high-level battles, he contently watched from the sidelines, enjoying his leisure.
In hindsight, his managent lacked competence, bordering on laziness. It’s fortunate that Mr. i Fei hadn’t fired him yet.
At this mont, You Qi wasn’t focused on whether Amos was male or female anymore; he simply wanted to keep his job.
"Mr. i Fei, I haven’t been idle these years; I’ve thoroughly unraveled the senior managent of Ouri. I’ve even traced their lineage and hidden lovers. I might not win against the adversity, so I’ve been biding my ti waiting for your arrival to turn the tides and claim victory."
His flattery was aptly tid.
Amos’s cool gaze fell on his face.
You Qi, thick-skinned, laughed sheepishly.
Why did Mr. i Fei not disguise before him? Did this demonstrate trust, sharing secrets, or perhaps he simply didn’t care if You Qi knew the secret?
Thus, he had to prove his worth to beco Mr. i Fei’s confidant, ensuring his safety.
"Mr. Jin is of no concern, but Wang Yu is backed by Wei Qiaosheng, making it difficult to deal with her. However, Wei Qiaosheng..."
You Qi stepped closer, lowering his voice: "Based on intelligence I’ve gathered over the years, he has..."
The long night stretched on; so tossed and turned, so sched without mistake, others trembled with fear.
As You Qi prepared to leave, he couldn’t resist asking that nagging question: "Mr. i Fei, how could you be a woman?"
Under the light, the girl’s face remained breathtaking no matter how many tis he looked.
You Qi always felt her face looked familiar, as if he’d seen it sowhere but couldn’t recall exactly.
The girl replied indifferently: "Because I am a woman."
You Qi fell silent; what was the point of saying anything?
Previously, rumors spread that Amos’s mother was from Hua Country, making Amos a classic mixed-race child, but now the rumors seed untrustworthy.
This face bore no trace of mixed ancestry; it was purely Hua Country.
But is she truly part of the i Fei Family? Or having such a dominant maternal gene erased the mixed-race traits from her face?
And just why did she conceal her gender?
You Qi had a stomach full of questions, but he knew the girl before him wouldn’t provide answers.
You Qi sighed deeply, unable to hide his desolation: "What a pity..."
The girl’s cold gaze shifted onto him.
You Qi jolted, quickly regaining his composure and hurriedly slipped away.
Upon exiting the room, he fished an object from his pocket, smirking cynically as he passed by a trash bin and tossed it casually.
He arrived with fervor but returned in disappointnt.
Regardless of Amos’s gender, he knew that from now on, he would pledge loyalty to Amos.
Rong Xianning stayed up all night, rising early to wash up as today he was to visit Rong Yuhe at the hospital.
Upon leaving, two bodyguards shadowed him closely, more like surveillance than protection.
He took the elevator downstairs, and upon reaching the lobby, he noticed a line of well-trained individuals in black marching briskly in and aligning beside the elevator.
Even the hotel staff appeared tense and alard, as if about to receive soone significant.
Rong Xianning’s gaze landed on the leading man’s face; he recognized him from having spotted him beside Gou Scar at the airport.
These were mbers of the Nine Dragon Association.
Who were they greeting with such fanfare?
Rong Xianning had no ti to ponder as the elevator doors opened, and soone stepped out.
A youth in a white suit with radiant golden hair, notably eye-catching.
As he exited the elevator, the black-clad individuals bowed in reverence, creating an impressive spectacle.
The youth strolled confidently past, exhibiting an unparalleled aura, viewing the surroundings as if nothing mattered.
A luxury car awaited at the hotel’s entrance, its chauffeur already poised by the open door respectfully.
Upon closer inspection, the driver turned out to be Gou Scar.
The youth entered the car, followed by the black-clad crew into other vehicles, and the fleet of black sedans roared away.
Rong Xianning stood in place, eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The youth had only shown him his profile, so he hadn’t fully seen his face, yet he felt an inexplicable familiarity.
Who was he?
This was the pressing question Rong Xianning longed to uncover.
He had a hunch; perhaps this person was pivotal in altering Gou Scar’s attitude.
