The next day, Lin Fan got up early, not wanting to sleep in. He had a meeting at the company today to see how the investment preparation for Chengkang Group was going.
Jian Ai made breakfast for him.
Sitting together at the dining table, Jian Ai brought up Zhang Mingming.
Yesterday's hotpot gathering at home was supposed to be harmonious, but Zhang Mingming's hostility toward her made the gathering somewhat complex.
She knew Zhang Mingming was interested in Lin Fan and was jealous of her, and it was affecting the work of Lin Fan's live streaming company. She didn't want to be a stumbling block.
"What do you think of Zhang Mingming?" Jian Ai suddenly asked.
Lin Fan looked up: "What specifically? Long legs? Big breasts? Or a curvy rear?"
Jian Ai rolled her eyes, "You're being ridiculous! I was going to ask if you knew she's a Yongfen."
Lin Fan grinned, "When I can see, I'll tell you."
"Shameless."
"You wanted to know."
"Don't be ridiculous, be serious. Can't you tell she likes you?"
"So what? Many girls like me, she's nothing special."
Jian Ai sighed, "Don't be cocky. I can see Zhang Mingming wants to be your girlfriend. And your live streaming company is just starting out, and it needs anchors to support it. If Zhang Mingming isn't willing to join, it will inevitably affect Hui Zi and the others. So, if her jealousy of me affects the company's operations, I can move out."
Lin Fan put down his chopsticks, his playful smile disappearing. "What are you thinking? If you move out, who will make my breakfast and dinner? How can I have my daily meals whenever I want?"
"But Zhang Mingming..."
"Stop!" Lin Fan interrupted Jian Ai. "The world keeps turning even without someone. Without Zhang Mingming, there'll be Wang Mingming, Li Mingming. Will my live streaming company not operate just because of one Zhang Mingming?"
"Besides, you should know me. I'm a single-minded person. Zhang Mingming wants to have me all to herself? It's impossible."
Jian Ai pouted, "Good. If I affect the operations of your company because of me, I'd be a sinner."
"Rest assured and stay here. If you dare say you're leaving again, I'll drown you."
"Humph! Crude."
Lin Fan was indeed crude.
He grabbed Jian Ai's neck and pressed her against the dining table, giving her a little talk.
Arriving at the company in the morning, Lin Fan immediately held a meeting to hear the investigation results on Chengkang Group.
Based on what they knew, Chengkang Group was operating well, its finances were also excellent, making it a worthwhile investment.
Lin Fan was relieved. After the meeting, he called Su Mi into his office and asked her to handle the investment in Chengkang Group.
Su Mi readily agreed.
After discussing work, Lin Fan pulled Su Mi onto his lap.
"When will you decide to let us get to know each other more deeply?"
"You're being impatient, aren't you? How's the new recruit, Qiao Yingzi, doing?"
"I haven't gotten to know her much yet. You have time to teach her."
"Got it. I'm going to work now."
Lin Fan gave her a pat and let her go.
The more mysterious and uncontrollable a woman was, the more interesting she became.
Lin Fan liked this sense of unpredictability.
Watching Su Mi wiggle her fiery peach buttocks as she reached the office door, Lin Fan reminded her, "Tell Qiao Yingzi to come see me."
"Okay." Su Mi's voice was alluring.
"What a deadly little vixen!"
Soon, Qiao Yingzi rushed into the office. She was a bit embarrassed to see Lin Fan, especially since she'd imagined Su Mi kneeling before him.
Moreover, Lin Fan wasn't very respectful to her.
But as an assistant, when the boss called, she couldn't refuse.
"Mr. Lin, you called for me?"
"How's the live streaming company going?"
"I've done what I'm supposed to do, and I'm currently following up on the operating situation."
Lin Fan nodded, "Good job. Once this project settles down, I'll assign you new projects."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin."
"Don't be polite. Sit down, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Lin Fan walked around the desk towards the resting area, inviting Qiao Yingzi to sit down, but she hesitated.
After Lin Fan sat down, she still stood there.
"Sit down. Why are you so formal? It's not like you."
"Oh, okay!" Qiao Yingzi sat down.
She was wearing a denim skirt, not too long, not too short.
Sitting across from Lin Fan, she had to put her legs together to avoid exposing herself.
But even so, Lin Fan still subconsciously glanced at her.
Qiao Yingzi saw his glance and frowned slightly.
"Mr. Lin, don't look around."
"Oh, what are you afraid of? Not wearing any underwear?"
"Boring."
"So, are you wearing any?"
"If you keep this up, I'll be angry."
Lin Fan chuckled and stopped teasing her, but his gaze remained bold. Qiao Yingzi had to keep her legs close together to prevent any exposure.
"Actually, there's nothing important. It's just that the live streaming company needs a lot of anchors right now. If your classmates or friends are interested in becoming anchors, you can recommend them."
So that was it.
She actually had a classmate who was very interested in being an anchor, but he was a boy.
Qiao Yingzi immediately asked, "Do you want male anchors?"
"Male anchors?"
"Is it not allowed?"
Lin Fan hadn't considered male anchors.
In his traditional thinking, it was beautiful female anchors who had the most potential.
Of course, male anchors were not impossible, but it was much harder for them to become famous than female anchors.
"What are his strengths?"
"He really loves to sing, and he's thick-skinned, and he occasionally does outdoor streaming."
That would make him suitable for singing as an anchor, and outdoor streaming would be even better.
"What's your relationship with him? What does he look like?"
"We've been classmates since high school, we're good friends. He's pretty handsome."
He sings, he's thick-skinned, he can do outdoor streaming, and he's handsome. He has all the buffs, it's worth a try.
Wait a minute!
Lin Fan remembered someone: "What's your good friend's name?"
"Fang Yifan... You don't know him, do you?"
It was him.
Fang Yifan's personality was indeed well-suited for being an anchor.
Lin Fan shook his head, "I don't know him. Then have your good friend come for an interview tomorrow."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin." Qiao Yingzi was delighted.
After graduation, Fang Yifan had been struggling to find a suitable job.
Now that there was a job opportunity that suited him, she was happy for him.
"Okay, go and work!"
"Okay!"
After Qiao Yingzi left, Lin Fan lay on the sofa and was about to call Lin Shaojing to tell her the good news about the investment in Chengkang Group.
But Lin Shaojing's phone call came first, just as he thought of her.
"Hello! Sister Jing."
"Lin Fan, you have no shame. Lin Shaotao is your brother, and you're going after Jian Ai. Are you even human?"
Lin Shaojing didn't hesitate to curse at him.
Lin Fan was stunned.
How did Lin Shaojing find out?
But... who told her?
"Sister Jing, what are you talking about?"
"Cut the crap. I know everything. Come see me now and explain yourself. But you'll face the consequences."
The call ended.
Lin Fan was still a bit confused.
How did Lin Shaojing know?
But things had come to this, and there was no point in continuing to be evasive or hide.
It was a good opportunity to meet her and discuss the investment.
