Chapter 423: Chapter 453: I Just Can’t Stand Seeing You Two Show Off Your Love

At the entrance of the Sky Sword Mountain gate, a group of people was waiting there.

Yao Bo nudged Zhao Guosheng’s shoulder and said, "Deputy Director Zhao, when do you think Yi will come out? Could it be that the Sky Sword Sect has reneged on their word? Or should we just storm in?"

"Go ahead and try storming in," Zhao Guosheng replied.

"There’s strength in numbers," Yao Bo said with a squint, "Besides, don’t you have two of those, what’s it called, SAM missiles? Just fire one right here at the gate; just thinking about it is exhilarating."

Zhao Guosheng broke into a sweat and said, "Birds of a feather flock together after all. Yi fears nothing in the world, and neither do you."

Yao Bo was not having it and said, "Why are you only talking about me? She’s the same."

Zhao Guosheng glanced at Cai Qin, caught off by Yao Bo’s retort, and stomped his foot, raising his voice and saying, "All of you are the same! No more talking, wait patiently!"

Yao Bo quietly shut his mouth.

The sunlight spilled onto the gate area, and Zhao Guosheng took out his phone to check the time. They had already been waiting here for an hour. Why hadn’t that kid come out yet? Could something have really gone wrong?

An hour ago, Zhao Guosheng had received a call from Fang Yi, asking him to come and wait, but after an hour, Fang Yi still hadn’t shown up, which was inevitably leading to wild thoughts.

Just then, there was suddenly some movement behind the mountain gate, and people came walking out, two of them: one was Fang Yi, and the other was the Sect Leader of the Sky Sword Sect, Hua Huiyue.

"Eh? Where’s Alliance Hierarch Bai? How come she’s not coming out?" Yao Bo wondered.

...

"Fang Yi, listen well. I will come looking for you in the Mortal World once a month. If you achieve nothing of note in the Mortal World, I may change my mind," Hua Huiyue said with a cold face.

Fang Yi smiled faintly and said, "If you change your mind, I’ll write my name backwards."

Hua Huiyue said, "Good, then you may leave. However, I hope that there won’t be any more incidents like explosions in the future."

Fang Yi said, "As long as Jingjing doesn’t suffer or get tired in the Sky Sword Sect, there naturally will be no such incidents." His words carried a veiled threat.

Fang Yi merely wanted to tell Hua Huiyue that he was not one to be trifled with, that angering him would not end well.

Hua Huiyue said nothing more, effectively accepting this.

Fang Yi turned around and walked towards Zhao Guosheng and the others.

"I’m out," Fang Yi said, opening his arms, hoping for a warm hug, but not a single person stepped forward to greet him.

That was a bit awkward.

Fortunately, Fang Yi wasn’t easily embarrassed and didn’t take it to heart. He turned to Zhao Guosheng with a face full of smiles and said, "Deputy Director Zhao, I appreciate all your hard work."

Zhao Guosheng glanced at him and said, "With the Dragon King Token in your hands, do you think I dare to complain about hard work?"

Fang Yi chuckled, surprised to find that Zhao Guosheng held quite a grudge.

Suddenly, Cai Qin stepped out from the crowd. She was dressed in black, her figure svelte and her curves exquisite.

"Are you okay?" Cai Qin’s tone was icy, but she couldn’t hide the concern in her voice.

"Of course, I’m okay. Don’t you know who I am?" Fang Yi said with a smile.

At this moment, Zhao Guosheng interjected, "Would you die if you didn’t brag?"

...

Descending from Sky Sword Mountain, Yao Bo and Yao Dong left with the members of the Dragon Team. Fang Yi initially wanted to hitch a ride, but Zhao Guosheng kicked him out.

"Kid, don’t even think about freeloadin’. That SAM missile from earlier cost fifty million; I’ve added it to your tab!" After saying so, Zhao Guosheng pulled up the car door, leaving Fang Yi standing by the roadside, biting the dust.

"That’s really goddamn stingy!" Fang Yi cursed under his breath. After waiting by the roadside for half an hour, he finally managed to hail a taxi and sped away.

In the taxi, Fang Yi went over everything that had transpired on Sky Sword Mountain.

In the garden, Fang Yi thought he had reached an agreement with Hua Huiyue, but unexpectedly, Hua Huiyue changed her tune, requesting that Bai Jingjing stay. Fang Yi was about to take action right then, but Hua Huiyue asked for Bai Jingjing’s opinion instead.

To Fang Yi’s surprise, Bai Jingjing actually agreed to stay with the Sky Sword Sect.

Fang Yi understood in his heart that Bai Jingjing wanted to stay with the Sky Sword Sect to learn martial arts and become stronger; she didn’t want to be a burden to him. He didn’t expose her at the time, as he already fully understood her intentions.

Therefore, Fang Yi didn’t insist on Bai Jingjing leaving with him, but he told her that he would come to visit whenever he had time. Bai Jingjing readily agreed.

And so, Fang Yi descended the mountain alone, returning the same way he had gone up to Sky Sword Mountain.

Having confirmed that Bai Jingjing was safe, Fang Yi felt relieved.

Back home, Fang Yi went to sleep after getting caught up.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and events that had taken place on Sky Sword Mountain gradually settled down. Fang Yi returned to the Mortal World, and that day, he received a call from Zhou Peilan and hurried to the new company.

As for the new company, it was slowly but surely reaching completion. Fang Yi didn’t need to worry too much about it; most of the staff had already been hired, and the company was operational. To his surprise, after arriving at the company, all these unfamiliar employees were greeting him.

Fang Yi was puzzled and entered the corporate office building, where he suddenly got a shock.

On a creamy white wall at the entrance of the lobby, there was a giant poster. The person on the poster was none other than Fang Yi himself, dressed in a suit and tie and looking rather handsome.

Though he looked good, Fang Yi felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Excuse me, please make way," a cool voice spoke from behind him.

That voice was very familiar. Fang Yi turned around and saw the person he had imagined — Ding Miaoyan, with Huo Xiaoxuan by her side.

Ding Miaoyan was dressed in a silver-grey fitted suit, her chest full and perky, her black hair tied up, exuding competence. Below was a knee-length suit skirt that perfectly outlined her buttocks.

Looking at Huo Xiaoxuan next to her, she was as striking as ever, especially at the chest area, showing no sign of sagging. It seemed as though it was ready to burst out of the white shirt’s collar.

"You two..." Fang Yi said, somewhat surprised.

"We are here by the company’s orders, to work here as exchange employees," Huo Xiaoxuan said excitedly.

"Oh," Fang Yi nodded.

At this moment, Huo Xiaoxuan suddenly slapped Fang Yi on the shoulder and pointed at the giant poster. "Handsome, isn’t it?"

Fang Yi gave a thumbs up and said, "You’ve got good taste, extremely handsome."

Huo Xiaoxuan said with pride, "Of course! This is my masterpiece!"

Fang Yi: "..."

Damn it, I thought some nutcase did this. So it was you!

Fang Yi was somewhat speechless, then thought about it and realized only Huo Xiaoxuan would do something like this.

At this moment, Ding Miaoyan spoke up, "Now that you’re here, let’s go to the conference room. Peilan is already waiting for us, Mr. Fang." She enunciated the last two words with emphasis.

Fang Yi was first taken aback, then quickly caught on.

When he was working under Ding Miaoyan in the business department of Longtu Group, Fang Yi was her subordinate. But now, Ding Miaoyan had become his subordinate, and to say there wasn’t a little bit of resentment would be impossible.

Upon arriving at the conference room, Zhou Peilan was surprised to see Fang Yi and the two women come in together, but then said, "Everyone’s here, take a seat. I’ll go make tea."

Zhou Peilan was originally looking at documents. When she saw Fang Yi, she immediately put down what she was doing and turned to pour him a cup of hot tea.

"Sister Peilan, you’re biased!" Huo Xiaoxuan called out.

"I remember you don’t drink tea," Zhou Peilan said.

"Oh right, I don’t drink tea," Huo Xiaoxuan said. "But now I want some."

Zhou Peilan said with a wry smile, "Xiaoxuan, could you please stop messing around?"

Huo Xiaoxuan pouted, "I’m going to mess around. I just can’t stand watching you two flaunt your affection."
