In the corridor, Ye Yubin led Ye Jiaxu to the restroom at the end.
"Yubin, do you know what you're doing?" Ye Jiaxu impatiently shook off Ye Yubin's hand.
Their departure was seen by Huang Cheng as deliberately leaving Ye Ziyu to him. If he had been bolder, he might have done something untoward to Ye Ziyu.
Ye Yubin grabbed Ye Jiaxu's arm, constantly placating and persuading him, "Second Brother, you're too tense. We just came out to talk, we haven't done anything else."
"You know Huang Cheng. If he really does something to Ye Ziyu, do you think, given her personality, she'll keep quiet and pretend it didn't happen?" Ye Jiaxu retorted.
Ye Ziyu hadn't been back to the Ye family for long, but she had never hidden her true nature.
Ye Jiaxu interrupted Ye Yubin's daydream and turned to head back to the private room, "When we go back in, don't cause any more trouble. Honestly sign the contract and take her home as soon as possible."
"Second Brother, why be so timid?" Ye Yubin blocked Ye Jiaxu's path, "She's only been back a few days and has already entered the company. If she does something later, do you think Father won't be moved by pity, give her a promotion, and give her a voice in the company?"
They had Ye Shaoting ahead of them, and most company matters needed his approval before they could proceed.
If, as Ye Yubin suggested, Ye Ziyu could easily climb above them and become another Ye Shaoting.
Then what about them? Would they never have a chance to get ahead?
Ye Yubin looked at Ye Jiaxu, who was deep in thought, and continued, "They are inside looking at the proposal. No matter what happens, we won't know. We'll just scare her a little, make her voluntarily leave the company, and never interfere with any of its projects again, so that an irrecoverable situation doesn't occur."
According to Ye Yubin's plan, they only needed to stay in the corridor for ten minutes, and then they would go back in.
The most Huang Cheng could do was touch her, take some minor advantage. He wouldn't dare to do anything more excessive.
After repeated persuasion, Ye Jiaxu's resolve began to waver. Seeing Ye Yubin's confident gaze, he turned and entered the restroom.
Ye Yubin smiled and followed him into the restroom.
In the private room.
Ye Ziyu beside him was like a delicious cake, fragrant but untouchable.
Huang Cheng felt as if his heart was being clawed by a cat. He gazed greedily at Ye Ziyu, constantly swallowing his saliva.
Ye Ziyu brushed back a strand of hair and flipped through the papers.
This action made Huang Cheng's breathing stop. Ye Ziyu transformed from a delicious cake into a life-saving medicine.
Following the tug of his heart, Huang Cheng stood up from his chair. He walked to Ye Ziyu's side, his greedy possessiveness overriding his reason, and placed his hand directly on Ye Ziyu's shoulder.
His palm clasped her shoulder joint, and Huang Cheng leaned down to Ye Ziyu's ear, "This is the most important part of the proposal, look here, this is what sets us apart from other companies."
Huang Cheng's hand gestured over the document.
Ye Ziyu's peripheral vision caught the hand on her shoulder, and she stood up to break free.
Having just missed his chance, Huang Cheng was not about to let it slip away again.
He pressed Ye Ziyu down, preventing her from standing, "Miss Ye, keep looking. Our biggest highlight is further ahead."
Huang Cheng held Ye Ziyu's hand and turned the pages backward.
Whether it was turning the page or taking advantage, Ye Ziyu knew.
She dropped the documents she was holding and slapped Huang Cheng's hand onto the table.
"Ouch~" Huang Cheng cried out in pain.
His assistant stepped forward, but under Ye Ziyu's warning gaze, he lowered the foot he had raised.
"Miss Ye, what do you mean by this?" Huang Cheng, unable to act stealthily, was instead pressed awkwardly onto the greasy food.
