Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

I'm old?

Ye Zibo twirled the car keys in his hands and entered Fu Lingye's office.

When he entered the office, Fu Lingye and Xu Kun were in the midst of a discussion. “Yo, Uncle, my bad for interrupting.”

Xu Kun looked at him confused, “Ye Shao? Why are you here?”

Turning the documents over, Fu Lingye said, “You may leave.”

Xu Kun nodded and smiled politely at Ye Zibo before leaving.

Once Xu Kun left, Fu Lingye tugged at his necktie frowning. With a clear voice, he asked, “Why did you come here early in the morning when you should still be sleeping?”

The startled Ye Zibo hurriedly closed the gap between them, “Uncle, you can't possibly be going back on your words. Didn't my dad say that I'm allowed to work at Fu Corporation?

“Your dad said that but I didn't agree.”

Ye Zibo turned his and taunted, “Uncle, are you afraid that once I start spending more time with Tong Rui, she would fall for me?”

Fu Lingye's dark eyes sank.

“I don’t think you are suitable to work at Fu Corporation.”

“Uncle how could you say that when I have not even started? Aren't you and Tong Rui unsuitable for each other too? Tong Rui is only twenty-four and you're already thirty-two. That's an eight-year gap. I still think you're afraid that Tong Rui would choose me instead. After all, it's obvious that Tong Rui and I are more compatible.”

Fu Lingye is a smart person. How could he not tell that Ye Zibo is provoking him on purpose? Yet, he could not dismiss the feeling of being stepped all over. “Since you want to come to Fu Corporation so badly, I can offer you a chance. However, if you're just here to flirt about, the offer is off the table.”

Ye Zibo grinned, “Uncle! Am I a playboy? I genuinely love arts and want to work here. My dad already said, if I can't show any result after working here for a year, I have to return to inherit his business. I'm sincere about working here and want to achieve results.”
