87: Do you have more than three years of relevant work experience?

"Ling Wu, collect these fragments and send someone to the Old Master for research."

This was the advantage of being in a large family.

With such a special alloy in the family's hands, it wasn't impossible to replicate it.

[Ding! Triggered the second stage of the hidden mission 'Shadow of the Poker Organization'. Kill Poker 3 through Poker 10; for each one killed, you will receive 20,000 villain points.

Kill them all to receive an additional 100,000 villain points.]

"Holy crap, illusion dream, why didn't you say so sooner?" Ling Xian really wanted to give illusion dream a hammer blow right now.

He had just wanted to test his strength and hadn't revealed his rain listening needle.

Otherwise, how could he not have killed Poker 6 on the spot?

Was he really going to watch 20,000 villain points slip through his fingers like that?

However, Ling Xian's displeasure, in the eyes of Mo Xueer and Chi Taohua, became the reason they questioned him... The next day.

In the Jiangnan Xu Family residence, inside Xu Xinyou's bedroom.

Leng Yunyan sipped some tea as she listened to her Best friend, Xu Xinyou, pour out her feelings of longing.

But Leng Yunyan was clearly a bit distracted.

"Yunyan, what's wrong?" Xu Xinyou waved her hand.

"Nothing," Leng Yunyan said, shaking her head.

"How is that nothing? You're practically spacing out," Xu Xinyou said with a helpless curl of her lip.

Her hands didn't stop moving. "Come, let me see if those have gotten any bigger."

"Ah!" Leng Yunyan cried out. "Xinyou, what are you doing?"

Though she complained, her own hands didn't stop either.

After the two of them finished fooling around on Xu Xinyou's bed...

"Xinyou, you know Ling Xian, right?" Leng Yunyan suddenly asked.

"I know him. Isn't he just your lapdog?" Xu Xinyou said dismissively. "When the time comes, I'll marry you myself and leave him fuming."

"We broke off the engagement."

"Ah!" Xu Xinyou was stunned. "Then that's great! You didn't like him anyway. Hehe, why not just be with me instead?"

"He was the one who brought it up," Leng Yunyan said, her heart feeling a bit bitter.

"How dare that guy! Let's beat him up," Xu Xinyou said indignantly.

"That's not the issue, but I feel like there's something fishy going on between him and my mom," Leng Yunyan said, her words shocking.

"No way!" Xu Xinyou's eyes widened, filled with the curiosity of someone about to hear some juicy gossip. "Even though your auntie is beautiful and sexy, the age gap between them is so large, and the Ling Family would never agree to it."

"I feel like he might have ulterior motives toward my mom, which is why he was trying so hard to please me before," Leng Yunyan analyzed, her mind racing.

"Ahem, why do you care? You don't like him anyway. Even if he really did end up with your auntie, wouldn't that be better than him marrying you?" Xu Xinyou comforted her.

"No, I'm telling you, this..." Leng Yunyan was momentarily at a loss for words, wanting to defend herself.

Xu Xinyou interrupted her directly. "Stop, stop, stop! Yunyan, you didn't actually develop feelings for Ling Xian after all that fawning, did you?"

Leng Yunyan was taken aback by the question, and a blush immediately crept onto her face.

Seeing this, Xu Xinyou thought to herself that things were looking bad.

In her carelessness, she had really let Ling Xian find an opening.

She had planned to wait until Leng Yunyan couldn't hold out against Ling Xian's offensive anymore, then step in to disrupt things and win Yunyan's heart.

But looking at the situation now, it didn't look good.

"Oh, let's not talk about me. Xinyou, I think you need to do something about your androphobia. Having a man behind you at least gives you a sense of security," Leng Yunyan changed the subject.

"Who says women are inferior to men? Humph! I'm stronger than anyone!" Xu Xinyou snorted disdainfully.

In her heart, however, she was planning to design a scheme.

This Ling Xian dares to steal my woman? I'll make sure Yunyan sees your true colors!

She had liked Leng Yunyan for a long time, but before, her grandfather had stood in the way, and she was afraid Yunyan would reject her.

Now the opportunity had come, but Yunyan's heart was being stolen.

"Yunyan, men are all pigs and can't be relied on! Just take this raw material issue—can Ling Xian help you solve it? In the end, it was your big sister here who helped you settle it."

...In the afternoon.

Since Ling Xian promoted Hu Yourong to Vice President, the amount of work on his plate had increased significantly.

"Yourong, how is the search for a secretary going?" Ling Xian asked Hu Yourong.

Hu Yourong smiled and said, "President Ling, I just finished interviewing one today. Why don't you see for yourself?"

As she finished speaking...

Hu Yourong led a woman into the room.

Ling Xian fell into deep thought as he looked at the new secretary Hu Yourong had interviewed.

Because this new secretary was the Best friend of the cold and glamorous CEO Leng Yunyan—Xu Xinyou!

"Wait, what the hell is going on?" Ling Xian wondered to himself.

Xu Xinyou thought to herself, 'So this is Leng Yunyan's lapdog? He's actually quite handsome. I can't believe he really managed to win over my Yunyan.'

'She came to Jiangnan to be with me, yet she talks about Ling Xian every single day.'

'Hmph! Just a playboy! This Vice President is so beautiful, she must be eye candy. The company is probably already hollowed out on the inside.'

'You dare to compete with me for a woman? Just wait until I get some dirt on you, then I'll deal with you!'

In the original plot, Xu Xinyou was a lesbian who liked Leng Yunyan.

But because Ling Xian couldn't catch up to Leng Yunyan and was just a lapdog, she hadn't cared.

In the later stages of the plot, she had left Leng Yunyan's side to travel and clear her head.

"Tsk, it seems it's because of Leng Yunyan," Ling Xian thought.

Xu Xinyou was wearing a secretary's outfit and gold-rimmed glasses, looking intellectual and elegant.

When she walked up to Ling Xian, she said, "President Ling, hello. I am the new secretary."

As she spoke, Xu Xinyou deliberately revealed her impressive cleavage, offering a full view of her charms.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, playing the seduction card?" Ling Xian thought.

"What is your name?"

"Hello, President Ling, my name is Xu Xinyou," Xu Xinyou introduced herself with a sweet smile.

In reality, she was already feeling a bit displeased.

"Xu Xinyou..." Ling Xian repeated the name to himself. "Why does this name sound so much like the daughter of the Jiangnan Xu Family?"

Xu Xinyou was momentarily stunned, then laughed charmingly. "President Ling is quite the joker. There are many people with the same name; perhaps it's just a coincidence."

In her heart, she cursed, 'Damned Ling Xian, why so much nonsense? Is hiring a secretary always this tedious?'

Xu Xinyou had a miniature camera in her sleeve to record everything, specifically to catch Ling Xian in a compromising position.

"Oh, President Ling, I'm not feeling well... my hypoglycemia is acting up." Xu Xinyou clutched her forehead, acting out a faint with poor skill.

She thought Ling Xian would feel some sympathy and catch her.

However, Ling Xian quickly stood up and moved away, shouting to Hu Yourong, "President Hu, how did you find this secretary? Can someone with hypoglycemia even work?"

"Ah! President Ling, I'm so sorry! So sorry!" Hu Yourong apologized repeatedly. "I'll bring in the next one right away."

"Wait, President Ling, I'm fine, I can do it," Xu Xinyou was dumbfounded.

What the hell was Ling Xian doing?

Trying to replace her? Not a chance!

"Are you sure you're okay?" Ling Xian asked, raising an eyebrow and feigning suspicion.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," Xu Xinyou waved her hands repeatedly.

"Alright then, to continue the questioning: Miss Xu, are you a fresh graduate? And do you have more than three years of relevant work experience?"

Facing Ling Xian's question, Xu Xinyou was stunned once again.

"President Ling, how can a fresh graduate have more than three years of relevant work experience?" Xu Xinyou asked, confused.

"I don't care about that. That's your problem to solve. I only want applicants who meet the criteria."
