Chapter 74: Chapter 074: Admitting a Mistake_1
A slap landed on his hand, and Du Yuehua scolded, “You’re already injured like this, and you’re still having wild thoughts.”

“It’s just a minor injury, no big deal, it’ll be fine in two days,” Ye Xiong said.

“Keep this up, and I’ll get angry,” Du Yuehua put on a stern face and said seriously, “I looked it up on the internet, having sex with wounds will slow down the healing process. You are not allowed to touch me for the next few days.”

“Stuff on the internet is not reliable.”

“Just last night you did it a few times, and now you’re craving again, do you understand the importance of cherishing your body?” Du Yuehua lectured him like an older sister.

“I’m just touching, not thinking anything,” Ye Xiong snickered.

In this lifetime, Ye Xiong had never encountered a pheromone body that fascinated him as much as Sister Hua’s; her maturity, intellect, and the charm she displayed in bed attracted him all the time.

She was like a black hole in the universe, capable of sucking him dry.

She always cared for him, treating him as the most important person in her life. Unknowingly, their relationship had reached a state that was unclear and indefinable, partly friends, partly lovers.

Du Yuehua knew his character and didn’t bother about him; if he loved to touch, then touch, and she had also become accustomed to his affection.

Sister Hua’s hands were very gentle, soft, and slender. While applying medicine, that cool, silky touch of skin against skin made Ye Xiong’s hand become unsettled again.

His fingers, like a crab, slowly began to creep up from her thigh.

Slap, slap!

Two heavy slaps landed on the back of his hand, and Du Yuehua stood up abruptly, angry, “If you don’t listen, I’m not talking to you anymore.”

Having said that, her eyes became a little red.

“It was a mistake, a mistake, hehe,” Ye Xiong hastily retracted his hand.

After the medicine was applied, Ye Xiong got dressed and saw that Du Yuehua was still sulking, he went over to hug her and then said, “Sister Hua, from now on I’ll listen to you, I know you’re doing this for my own good. There’s plenty of time ahead of us, hehe.”

“If you understand, that’s good. A man should prioritize his career, and romantic affairs are just minor matters. Besides, right now your infatuation with me is just because you find me refreshing. Maybe after a while, you’ll get tired of me.”

After Du Yuehua finished, a subdued expression appeared on her face.

Moved, Ye Xiong held her tight and said, “Sister Hua, whether you believe it or not, you are now the most important woman in my life. My feelings for you go beyond the physical.”

An hour later, Ye Xiong walked out of the office.

Whistling, he strolled around. Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

“Brother Xiong, there’s something I want to talk to you about,” Wang Tong said on the other end of the line.

“What’s the matter, go ahead.”

“My sister can’t find a job at the moment, and I was thinking of having her come over to the hotel to help out,” Wang Tong said.

Ye Xiong fell silent for a moment, then asked, “Where is she right now?”

“At the hotel. Brother Xiong, my sister has already promised that she will work hard. Please do me this favor.”

“Tell her to come to my office, I’ll talk to her.”

“Thank you, Brother Xiong,” Wang Tong said and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Ye Xiong returned to his own office and sat at his desk, crossing his legs.

This office was about forty to fifty square meters, very luxuriously decorated, second only to Du Yuehua’s office in the entire hotel.

Ye Xiong rarely spent time in this office, sometimes not entering it for several days at a time. However, being the second-in-command only to Du Yuehua in status, it was cleaned daily, so the entire office looked spacious, bright, and imposing.

“`

Beep beep!

There was a knock at the door.

“Come in.”

The door opened, and Wang Shu, in a skirt, walked in.

Her face lightly made up, her long hair cut short, made her face seem slimmer, far more approachable than her previous haughty and vain demeanor, at least on the surface.

A melon-seed shaped face, willow-leaf eyebrows, peach blossom eyes, rosy lips.

Ignoring her vain and venomous character, Wang Shu, overall, could be considered a beauty, otherwise, she wouldn’t have had so many men crazy over her, like Wang Bin, who even lost his job as a vice president for her.

But in terms of the most important inner qualities of a woman, she paled in comparison to Sister Hua.

Wang Shu hung her head low, afraid to look up, and softly called out, “Hello, President Ye.”

“Raise your head,” Ye Xiong said indifferently.

Wang Shu lifted her head, mustering the courage to meet Ye Xiong’s gaze, her mouth twitching, about to speak but stopping herself.

“If you have something to say, just say it. What you say now will determine whether I use you or not, so consider carefully before you speak,” Ye Xiong declared in advance.

Wang Shu took a deep breath, raised her head and looked at Ye Xiong.

Tall, handsome, domineering, his gaze sharp as a knife, as though he could see right through a person.

If she hadn’t witnessed it herself, Wang Shu wouldn’t have believed that in the short span of two months, the filthy construction worker she looked down on, whom she didn’t even want to give a passing glance, could transform into a being she looked up to.

The husband of Yang Xinyi, the general manager of Mingyang International Hotel, each of these identities shocked her.

He was able to single-handedly contend with Jiangnan City’s local bigwig, Haotian Group, and brought Mingyang International Hotel back from the brink to thriving success, which was proof enough of his capabilities.

How pitiful she felt for having offended him before, Wang Shu regretted it deeply.

“President Ye, I’m sorry, I was wrong,” Wang Shu said loudly.

“Tell me, what did you do wrong?” Ye Xiong sneered.

“I grew up in poverty and was used to suffering since childhood, which instilled in me the desire to be rich. Previously, I only respected the wealthy and looked down on the poor, befriended only those who were valuable, and even exploited my looks to climb up the ladder for money and status. I know what I did was wrong, and I’ve offended you, President Ye. Here, I apologize to you and I promise I will work earnestly and never cause you any more trouble,” Wang Shu stated seriously after some thought.

“Is that all?” Ye Xiong asked from his seat, looking at her intently.

“Yes,” Wang Shu replied anxiously.

Ye Xiong looked at her quietly for several minutes without speaking.

Wang Shu felt guilty under his stare; she never thought that there would come a day when she couldn’t even lift her head in front of this man she had once disdained. Her back felt like it was being pricked by needles, and she wished more than anything to flee and escape his contemptuous gaze.

“What kind of person do you think I really need?” Ye Xiong asked.

“Someone loyal, who follows orders,” Wang Shu replied immediately.

Ye Xiong silently nodded, thinking to himself that Wang Shu had been able to become an assistant in the sales department at Future New City right after graduating. Aside from trading on her looks, she must have some ability; otherwise, among the many vain and pretty women, why would she have been chosen?

She must have done her homework after coming to the hotel; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to precisely identify what kind of employee he needed.

“You’re wrong. Loyalty and obedience are for regular hotel staff. For important positions, the two most crucial words are ‘capability,’” Ye Xiong stated earnestly.

After hearing this, Wang Shu excitedly asked, “President Ye, do you agree to hire me?”
