Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, I have been in this world for three months. During this time, I have slowly come to understand some information. Han Qingtian's mother is named Xu Suyun, and she is a very strict woman who is extremely dissatisfied with me as a "substitute."
At the company, there is a person named Chen Minghao who seems to be plotting something, which makes me very alert. Soon, the company's annual meeting arrived. As Han Qingtian's companion, I attended the event. The atmosphere at the annual meeting was lively; employees were dressed elegantly, and the performances on stage were spectacular.
However, I had no mood to appreciate it; I felt that something would happen tonight. Sure enough, halfway through the event, just as I came out of the restroom, I saw Chen Minghao at the end of the corridor. He was on the phone, looking very serious.
I immediately became cautious and carefully approached him. "The stocks have been bought; don't worry." "This quarter, the company's stock will drop by five percent." "There’s no problem with the project cooperation with Hongyuan."
The content of Chen Minghao's call shocked me. It seemed he was involved in something underhanded. Could it be that he was going to betray Han Qingtian? My heart raced, and I dared not listen any longer; I turned to leave. But Chen Minghao had already noticed me.
"Who’s there?"
I paused for a moment and quickly quickened my pace to leave. Back in the banquet hall, I felt uneasy and kept thinking about what had just happened.
What does Chen Minghao want to do? Is he going to deal with Han Qingtian? What should I do? A series of questions flooded my mind, making it impossible for me to calm down.
At that moment, Xu Suyun walked over. She was wearing a dark green qipao and a pearl necklace around her neck, exuding an air of nobility.
"Miss Ye, may I talk to you?"
I hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Of course."
Xu Suyun and I went to the terrace outside the banquet hall, where it was quiet and undisturbed.
Xu Suyun looked at me and said lightly, "Miss Ye, you should know that I don't like you."
I don't like you either. I thought to myself, but I replied, "I know."
Xu Suyun raised an eyebrow, "You are very honest."
I smiled, "I've always been honest."
"I know what you're thinking; you just want to cling to Qingtian and rise to the top like a phoenix," Xu Suyun scoffed. "But let me tell you, as long as you're in the Han family, you won't be able to harm Qingtian!"
I shrugged, "I won't hurt him."
"You better remember your words," Xu Suyun shot me a glance before turning to leave.
I watched her back with some helplessness. Why does Han Qingtian's mother dislike me so much? I haven't done anything at all.
Sighing, I turned to head back to the banquet hall. But just as I turned around, I saw Chen Minghao. He was standing not far away, staring directly at me.
I was startled and quickly walked toward him.
"Hello, Mr. Chen," I forced a smile.
Chen Minghao looked at me, a slight smile curling at the corners of his mouth. "Miss Ye, hello."
"Did you hear everything just now?" Chen Minghao asked.
My heart skipped a beat, but I maintained a calm facade. "Yes."
Chen Minghao raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you afraid of me?"
I chuckled softly. "Afraid of what? You wouldn't hurt me."
Chen Minghao narrowed his eyes. "How do you know I wouldn't hurt you?"
I shrugged. "I don't know; I'm just guessing."
Chen Minghao fell silent for a moment before laughing. "You're very clever."
I smiled back. "Thank you for the compliment."
Chen Minghao looked at me, his gaze deep. "Do you know who I am?"
I nodded. "You are Chen Minghao, the Chief Financial Officer of Han Group."
"What else do you know?" Chen Minghao asked again.
I shook my head. "That's all I know."
Chen Minghao smiled again. "If you want to learn more about me, you can come find me."
With that, he turned and left.
I watched his retreating figure, lost in thought. Who exactly is Chen Minghao? What does he want?
In the following days, I began to secretly investigate Chen Minghao's background, wanting to understand the connection between him and Han Qingtian.
I quickly found Chen Minghao's resume. It turned out that Chen Minghao and Han Qingtian were college classmates and even roommates.
Chen Minghao had excellent grades and was a top student, while Han Qingtian was from a wealthy family.
Although they had different personalities, they maintained a good relationship.
During college, Chen Minghao dated Xu Lu, but they broke up soon after.
After the breakup, Chen Minghao joined Han Group, starting from the grassroots level and eventually rising to the position of Chief Financial Officer. This information made me realize that Chen Minghao might have been planning something all along. Moreover, Han Qingtian may not be aware of it.
