The obsessive CEO's white moonlight is me

Chapter 118 Not Intimidated

Ye Xingran went to work as usual today, but unexpectedly ran into Eileen at the company.

The two people were facing each other directly.

"Isn't this Secretary Ye, our CEO Fu's most popular secretary? What a coincidence to run into her here."

Ye Xingran smiled politely and replied, "Good morning, Sister Eileen."

However, she secretly became wary. This Eileen had always harbored different feelings for Fu Shiyue and also regarded her as a thorn in her side.

"Hmph, don't think you're so great just because you're President Fu's secretary. You're just an employee." Eileen crossed her arms, her eyes filled with provocation.

Ye Xingran said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I'm just doing my job, unlike some people who do nothing all day but think about seducing others."

Upon hearing her words, Ye Lin showed no anger whatsoever; instead, she chuckled.

Her luscious red lips parted slightly as she said mockingly, "Ye Xingran, Ye Xingran, I never expected you to be so eloquent. But I underestimated you; you actually have the ability to seduce men into your home. Compared to me, tsk tsk tsk, I'm far inferior to you."

As she spoke, Ye Lin took out her phone, opened her photo album, and showed her a picture of a man rushing anxiously into Ye Xingran's house.

Hearing Ye Lin's sharp and sarcastic words, Ye Xingran's previously calm face instantly furrowed, and her composure vanished. Her eyes were fixed on the arrogant woman before her, and she involuntarily took steps closer to her, gritting her teeth as she questioned, "You actually followed me?"

The photo above is of Lu Fei.

Ye Xingran knew very well that Eileen must have seen Lu Fei enter her residence.

But that very day happened to be the day the poison in her body took effect.

Thinking of this, Ye Xingran's eyes turned cold.

However, at this moment, Fu Shiyue's deep voice came: "What are you doing?"

The two turned around at the same time and saw Fu Shiyue standing there with a cold look in his eyes.

Eileen immediately changed to a delicate and pitiful appearance, saying, "President Fu, Secretary Ye is bullying me."

Fu Shiyue looked at Ye Xingran, but Ye Xingran remained calm.

He chuckled inwardly; this little woman was always so calm.

He then turned to Eileen and said coldly, "Eileen, have you been working too little lately, leaving you with nothing to do? I just saw whether my secretary was bullying you."

Eileen's face paled. She bit her lip, wanting to say something more.

Fu Shiyue interrupted her directly: "Alright, you can leave now." Eileen glared fiercely at Ye Xingran, and as she walked past her, she whispered, "Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone in the company knows you're a promiscuous woman. Humph."

Then, unwillingly, he turned and left.

Fu Shiyue approached Ye Xingran and asked softly, "Are you alright?"

Ye Xingran shook her head. "Thank you for your trust, President Fu."

Fu Shiyue's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile. "I believe what I saw. However, I'm very curious, why does that Eileen harbor such hostility towards you?"

She glanced at Fu Shiyue and said, "Maybe he's taken a fancy to someone, which is why he's angry about my appearance."

Fu Shiyue raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on his face, and said, "Oh? Someone?"

"President Fu, you shouldn't be too concerned about your employees' personal matters. Otherwise, you might end up getting burned yourself."

Fu Shiyue chuckled softly, "Are you worried about me?" Ye Xingran rolled her eyes at him, "Mr. Fu, you're overthinking it. I was just reminding you." She then turned to leave. Fu Shiyue reached out and grabbed her arm. Ye Xingran stiffened and turned back to look at him with a puzzled expression.

"There's a banquet tonight, you'll come with me," Fu Shiyue said without room for argument.

Just as she was about to refuse, Fu Shiyue added, "This is also part of the job."

Left with no other choice, Ye Xingran had to agree.

As night quietly fell, the entire banquet hall was enveloped in dazzling lights and vibrant colors, presenting a scene of extravagant revelry and decadence.

Ye Xingran wore a dark blue long gown, shining as brightly as the most dazzling star in the night sky. The light gauze fabric was adorned with countless gorgeous sequins, shimmering with captivating light as she moved lightly.

Her long, soft, wavy hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, adding to her charm and allure.

Fu Shiyue appeared in a well-tailored black suit, his tall and straight figure and cool face making him look as noble and handsome as a prince from a fairy tale.

She walked into the venue arm in arm with Fu Shiyue, instantly attracting the attention of all the guests.

At this moment, Eileen was also at the banquet.

When she saw Ye Xingran and Fu Shiyue appear together, a burning jealousy ignited in her eyes. However, Ye Xingran keenly sensed Eileen's hostile gaze, but instead of backing down, she deliberately straightened her slender back and walked forward with even more elegant and composed steps, like a proud white swan.

Fu Shiyue seemed to sense the change in the beauty beside him. He turned his head slightly and said softly in a deep and magnetic voice, "You are breathtakingly beautiful tonight."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingran turned her head, raised her chin, and replied, "Oh? So, does that mean I'm not pretty normally? Or do you always think I'm ugly?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyue

Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyue couldn't help but chuckle. "Your ability to misinterpret is truly first-rate. What I meant was that you were exceptionally charming tonight."

Ye Xingran: "Glib-tongued."

Just then, a well-dressed, smiling business partner walked over and greeted Fu Shiyue warmly.

Fu Shiyue nodded slightly in acknowledgment, then temporarily released his grip on Ye Xingran's soft hand and turned to greet his business partner.

Ye Xingran, who was left behind, calmly moved to a quieter corner on her own.

She gracefully reached out and picked up a glass of golden, bubbly champagne from the table beside her, then took a small sip, savoring the delicate foam dancing on her tongue and the rich, sweet flavor spreading in her mouth.

However, just as Ye Xingran was quietly enjoying this moment of peace, an annoying figure quietly approached—it was Eileen, who had always harbored jealousy and hostility towards her.

Eileen, with a half-smile on her lips, said sarcastically, "Oh ho, look how smug our Secretary Ye is these days! But... it's just that President Fu brought you out to broaden your horizons on a whim, so don't take yourself too seriously!"

Faced with Eileen's harsh words, Ye Xingran didn't even lift an eyelid, completely ignoring her. But Eileen clearly wasn't going to let it go, and she continued to provoke her: "Hmph, don't try to act all high and mighty with me! Let me tell you, I have photos of you. If I post these photos in the company group chat, hehe... let's see if President Fu will still protect you, you little vixen!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingran finally raised her head and looked at Eileen with a cold, disdainful gaze.

She smiled slightly, her tone calm yet undisguisedly sarcastic, and replied, "Alright, since you're so capable, Sister Eileen, then go ahead and post them! But I wonder, based on those so-called 'photos' you have, and your usual behavior in front of President Fu, will he choose to believe you, or will he prefer to believe me, an innocent person? Hmm... Sister Eileen, why don't you take a guess?"

Eileen had definitely underestimated the woman in front of her.

Eileen trembled with anger at Ye Xingran's words. She had expected Ye Xingran to be afraid and beg for mercy, but she was so calm. Eileen gritted her teeth and said, "Keep being stubborn. Wait until everyone sees the photos, then we'll see how you maintain your position in the company."

Ye Xingran put down her wine glass, slowly approached Eileen, and whispered, "Sister Eileen, do you think President Fu can't see that you're framing me? He's not the kind of person who's easily fooled."

A sense of unease welled up in Eileen's heart.

Just then, Fu Shiyue walked over and looked at Eileen with an icy expression: "Eileen, what are you doing here?"

"Mr. Fu, I've been invited to this banquet..."

Ye Xingran grew up in Yunmeng and experienced the survival principle of the strong preying on the weak.

She wasn't raised in an ordinary family, nor was she a flower pampered in a greenhouse.

She's a poisonous rose.

Not raised to be scared

"Mr. Fu, I have some things to attend to, I'll be leaving now..."

Eileen finished speaking hastily and left.

Before leaving, she glanced at Ye Xingran.

That look in his eyes was making it clear...

“I, Eileen, am not a woman who is afraid.”

Suddenly, the lights in the room flashed, and the emcee announced the start of the dance.

Fu Shiyue shook off the crowd and walked towards Ye Xingran, taking her hand and leading her onto the dance floor.

Their dance steps were light and harmonious, like a perfect couple. Fu Shiyue leaned close to Ye Xingran's ear and said, "Don't worry about her, as long as I believe in you, that's enough."

Ye Xingran's heart stirred, and a strange feeling arose within her.

When the song ended, Fu Shiyue led Ye Xingran to a corner to rest.

At this moment, Fu Shiyue received an urgent phone call and had to leave.

Ye Xingran stood there alone, and at that moment, a strange woman slowly walked towards her with a sinister smile on her face.

During the banquet, people kept coming over to talk business with Fu Shiyue, while Ye Xingran stood quietly to the side.

Suddenly, a glass of wine was splashed at Ye Xingran. She had no time to dodge and closed her eyes to prepare to receive it.

But the expected dampness did not arrive.

She opened her eyes and saw Fu Shiyue standing in front of her, the glass of wine spilled all over his expensive suit.

Ye Xingran looked up at him, and at that moment, Fu Shiyue's eyes were filled with concern for her.

At that moment, a ripple stirred in Ye Xingran's heart, and she stared blankly at him.

"you....."
