<h4>Chapter 419: Clues (1)</h4>


    As soon as Han Yichen’s matter was reported, Zhao Youlin went back to her busy work.


    After the resort proposal was confirmed, they implemented the n without further dy. Meanwhile, Zhao Youming had not taken much action since then, which was against Zhao Youlin’s expectations.


    This was especially so after Zhao Youlin learned from Xiao Jingyao that Zhao Youliming had already known that Zhao Yifei was about to return to his home country as well as thepany during the day when Zhao Shunchang had came looking for her not long ago.


    That guy could still hold himself back at this moment. It looked like she had underestimated his endurance.


    However, the end result could turn out even worse if he kept restraining himself. Now that Zhao Youming has held himself back, in the future, he might bounce back and create greater impacts.


    Thinking of this, Zhao Youlin could not help but furrow her eyebrows. She was thinking how to divert his attention by using some tricks.


    In the end, the best way toe up with was to use a certain idiot, who was happily rushing back to his home country, to divert Zhao Youming’s attention. After that, she let the two guys, who had no idea of their own capabilities, end up fighting among themselves. By that time, she could reap the benefits that resulted from their fight. Besides…


    Duan Yarong and the rest of her group cared about Han Yichen so much. They certainly would not allow Han Yichen to continue wandering about out there without acknowledging his status.


    In half a month’s time, Duan Yarong and the rest would certainly make a public announcement about this. By that time…


    A trace of wicked smile arched across Zhao Youlin’s lips. She wondered how Zhao Youming and Zhao Yifei would react to this if they were to learn that the Zhao family had a more qualified and sessful sessor than them.


    Zhao Youlin and Han Yichen had been interacting very closely recently due to An Yue. Those people who knew the truth had no qualms about them. However, those people who had not learned the truth had thought that their rtionship did not look as simple as it appeared to be.


    “Did you notice that the president of Sheng Huang Group oftenes to look for our general manager?”


    “That’s right. President Han doesn’t look so friendly. But, he treats the general manager rather well.”


    “Crap! Most of the domineering presidents would do the same. They only give special treatment to someone special to them and turn a blind eye to the rest.”


    “What you mean is…”


    “Isn’t this very obvious? President Han is courting our general manager!”


    “But, I thought our general manager’s boyfriend is President Mu?”


    “There’s no proof of it yet. We are the only ones talking about General Manager and President Mu getting together. Before this, we’ve spected Third Young Master of the Ye family too, right? We knew that they were courting the general manager. But, the general manager never admits it, outrightly, right? She is still single, and it’s only normal that she has many pursuers. Besides, the way President Han treats the general manager is way better than President Mu.”


    “It seems true though. General Manager and President Han make a good match when they stand side by side regardless of their looks or family background. Sobs. I’m so jealous of the rich man’s world.”


    “Enough. Stop talking about it. General Manager ising.”


    Upon hearing this, the girls immediately kept quiet. They acted normal and went back to their work respectively.


    Zhao Youming, who happened to pass by to fill up his coffee, had been standing next to the coffee machine. He overheard their conversations and the corners of his lips slightly curled upward. He took the initiative and walked over in the direction of Zhao Youlin.


    “Youlin.”


    Zhao Youlin paused mid-stride. Looking at the grinning young man, she narrowed her eyes and smiled faintly as she said, “Chief Zhao, why are you here?”


    Zhao Youming pointed at the still-hot coffee in his hand and said with a smile, “I’ve been staying in the office for a long time. So, I came out to take a stroll to keep myself awake. Youlin, why are youing from outside at this hour? Did you just rush over from the house?”


    “I sent off a friend just now.”


    “A friend? I wonder who your friend is that you have to personally send him off at thepany’s main entrance. Could he be…” Zhao Youming deliberately paused before he said profoundly, “President Han from the Sheng Huang Group?”


    Zhao Youlin had never thought that Zhao Youming would take the initiative to mention Han Yichen before her. Her eyes sank and she thought to herself. ‘Has this guy learned about Han Yichen’s identity? Did hee here to test me out and get some information from me?’


    Zhao Youlin’s mind was racing. However, she did not show the slightest bit of it on the surface. She said faintly, “President Han is thergest partner in Zhao Enterprise apart from the Ye Group. As such, he definitely carries more weightpared to others. It’s only normal for me to personally send him off.”


    Zhao Youlin words carried double meanings. One, she used Han Yichen’s identity to agitate Zhao Youming so that he recalled how badly he had lost in the proposal decision-making meetingst time. This was because Han Yichen had yed a decisive role in it. Two, she was reminding Zhao Youming that Han Yichen meant a lot to Zhao Enterprise.


    Unfortunately, Zhao Youming received Zhao Youlin’s first hint, but could not get her second hint.


    Zhao Youming’s expression twisted a little. However, soon, he controlled himself and said, “Youlin, you nned everything so well. But, apart from business matters, don’t you have any personal matters with President Han as well?”


    “Personal matters?”


    “That’s right. Personal matters.” Zhao Youming purposely took a few steps forward, leaned close to the side of Zhao Youlin’s ear and whispered, “Youlin, I know you are still single ever since you’re divorced from President Mu. President Han is very capable and you are still young. It’s only normal to develop some sort of unusual rtionship after spending so much time together. However, I heard that you have a strong bond with President Mu. Even though you have divorced, you still have a very intimate rtionship with him. I wonder what happens if President Mu and President Han find out that you…”


    Zhao Youlin was struck dumb upon hearing this. She looked at the young man bizarrely who was at a very close range with her.


    ‘So… So, this guy thought that Han Yichen and I are… that kind of rtionship. Besides, he even beat around the bush to mock me that I am in a rtionship with two men at the same time and might end up in trouble at any time!’


    Soon, Zhao Youlin schooled her face and met Zhao Youming’s gaze. She smirked, “Chief Zhao, I never thought you would bother to care about things like this.”


    The hint of bizarreness that shed across Zhao Youlin’s face had got Zhao Youming further convinced of his own spection. The scheming smile slowly appeared in his eyes and the next moment, it faded. He grinned as he replied to Zhao Youlin, “Youlin, no matter how it is, we’re still a family. Anything rted to you is naturally rted to the Zhao family, as well as me. Besides, as the general manager of Zhao Enterprise, your every move represents Zhao Enterprise. Caring about you is equivalent to caring for Zhao Enterprise, don’t you agree?”


    ‘You’re right. I know you are quite concerned about me. However, what you really care about is when you can pull me down from my current position and take my ce, how to usurp Zhao Enterprise including all the properties of the Zhao family and be a top dog!’
