Faced with that particular gaze of Li Jinnan, Ye Youyou felt unsettled. She stood rooted to the spot and awkwardly gulped.

Li Jinnan took a step forward. When Ye Youyou saw that, she stepped back instinctively. He stopped in his tracks when he witnessed that and fixed his eyes on the woman in front of him.

With a laugh, he said, “Miss Ye, as your boss, it is my duty to take responsibility for you. Besides, my interest does not extend to married women.”

He looked at Ye Youyou from head to toe. When he noticed her pallid complexion, he clucked his tongue and shook his head. He couldn’t have made himself any clearer.

Although this had been what Ye Youyou was hoping for, having Li Jinnan spell it out so clearly embarrassed her, nonetheless.

“Thank you, GM Li.” Ye Youyou pressed her lips into a thin line. “Thanks to you, my health has improved a lot. And, thank you for giving me the chance to be part of such a popular television drama. It was my fault for not treasuring it well. However, I hope you won’t cast me aside. I would still like to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.”

Ye Youyou only had one option if she wanted a promising future as an outstanding individual. Her mother wasn’t going to give her a good life. The Shen family wasn’t going to provide her with happiness either. All she had at the moment was herself.

Li Jinnan turned to face her. His bold brows rose, and his eyes deepened as he looked at her. He stared at Ye Youyou for a good two seconds before looking away. In a warm voice, said, “Since you’re mine, I won’t ill-treat you.”

Ye Youyou’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Strangely, there seemed to be a hidden meaning in Li Jinnan’s words.

Since I am his, he won’t ill-treat me? What does that mean? Is he referring to the fact that I am from his company, or is he referring to something else altogether?

Ye Youyou’s heart began to thump. She couldn’t read this man at all or decipher what he truly meant.

She looked at Li Jinnan, and was about to say something when Li Jinnan continued without a change in expression, “But.”

Ye Youyou’s words died in her throat when she saw how at ease Li Jinnan was being.

“But?” Ye Youyou looked at him as she waited for him to finish his sentence.

Li Jinnan turned to face his back to her and replied slowly, “Opportunities are for those who are prepared. Luck may come your way, but your ability and reputation are what’s most important. Instead of worrying that you may be cast aside, focus your attention on improving your ability so much that you become indispensable to others.”

Ye Youyou didn’t say a word, but she nodded in reply.

Li Jinnan cast a glance at her before walking toward the exit.

As he walked off, his next statement sounded half like an explanation and half like a goodbye. “You have a lot of potential, so don’t let it go to waste. Since I now know you’re fine, I’ll be leaving. Take good care of yourself. When you’re fully recovered, have Mila let me know.”

That last sentence settled Ye Youyou’s emotions. Have Mila let me know. In other words, he wasn’t keeping an eye on her in particular and had no idea when she’d be recovered. The implication of that statement reassured her.

“I will,” she said. “Take care, GM Li.”

Li Jinnan heard the relief in her voice, and his jaw clenched imperceptibly. Nevertheless, he walked off without another word.

…

Ye Youyou’s apartment was situated in a middle-class district. Not many residents could afford to drive a luxury car.

The sight of a Bentley limousine caught Shen Luo’an’s eye. The car plate number was A16888. The car belonged to the UO Group. Was it someone from the UO Group? Or, was it one of their VIPs?
