Hours passed, I checked the car in the parking lot, and fortunately, Meng Bao had moved. Maybe he got tired of waiting for me, so he went back instead.

    Well, I told him that we would go to Yang Group Office after my work is done. Which should be in an hour.

    The Boss, Mr. Lu, seemed to be very satisfied with my job. Because when he checked the sorted documents, he was surprised at how many holes were created by the previous secretary.

    "Wow, Secretary Shi, if I know that you''re this skillful at this job, I should''ve hired you when I opened my business!" Boss Lu stated.

    Well, Boss, when you first started your business, I would be around ten years old, so that would be impossible.

    After excusing myself, I left the office and head straight to the main lobby.. I called Meng Bao, and after one beep, Meng Bao picked up the call immediately.

    "H—Hello, Jiejie?"

    "Bao, where are you? I''ve just finished work. Let''s go to your dad''s office," I said. "Where is your car?"

    There was a slight pause in Meng Bao''s part. I wondered if something happened, and then he said, "Jie, I''ve been waiting this whole time on the rooftop…."

    "Huh? What do you mean? You parked your car on the office''s rooftop?"

    "No, a helicopter…."

    …

    "Okay, I''ll go to your dad''s office with Taxi."

    "W—WAIT!! Please come with me! I used this helicopter because I want to show my dad that I treasured you a lot!" Meng Bao said. I could hear him entering the elevator from the phone.

    In less than a minute, Meng Bao came out of the executive elevator and rushed to grab my hand, "Jiejie, let''s go!"

    "Wait, how did you use—"

    "Mr. Lu is also my colleague. If someone is Alex-Ge''s colleague, there is a big chance that person also knows me," Meng Bao said. We went from the executive elevator to the rooftop.

    On the rooftop, I saw the helicopter. I could only watch in a daze as Meng Bao kept pulling me to hurry up. He seemed to be very excited to go with me to meet his dad.

    We entered the helicopter, and he put on the seatbelt for me.

    "Jiejie, you''re the only person ever sit in this helicopter, except the pilot and me, of course," Meng Bao said proudly.

    It took a while until the realization hit me hard. I looked at him and then asked, "Meng Bao, this is the first time for me to ever fly…."

    I wanted to say that I could''ve used Taxi instead because I was scared. But it was too late, the propeller already spun, and the helicopter started rising up to the air.

    "Ah, really? If you''re scared, you can just hug me, Jie~" Meng Bao said with a wink.

    I hugged him immediately, scared of looking at anything, so I closed my eyes as well.

    Meng Bao chuckled and used this opportunity to circle his hand around my waist and pulled me closer. He let my head rest on his chest, and I could smell a faint cedar wood perfume on him.

    I could hear Meng Bao''s heartbeat. It was beating loud and fast. He must''ve been very excited. So I just kept my position like this for him.

    I could hear him talking to the pilot, "What are you looking at? Don''t you dare to look at my Jie!"

    "N—No, Sir, I was just wondering our next destination…."

    "To my dad''s office, of course," Meng Bao said. He pulled something, and I could feel my whole body draped with something similar to a blanket.

    I opened my eyes slowly, and it was true, Meng Bao really covered my whole body, including my face, with a blanket.

    "Wait, what are you doing?"

    "I''m covering you, Jie. The pilot dares to look at you for two seconds. I can''t accept that!" Meng Bao said obsessively.

    I smacked his chest out of irritation, "You''re really going to get jealous over someone staring at me for two seconds?!"

    Meng Bao coughed for few seconds after I smacked his chest, and then he replied, "Wuu… it''s the whole two seconds, Jie. That''s already a lot…."

    "Ah, whatever…"

    Yeah, I really couldn''t do anything against Meng Bao''s possessiveness. It was as if his brain was wired just like that. He acted like a lovesick puppy most of the time.

    Well, I believe all this lovesick behavior would disappear after we got married and had few children. Because there was no way, I could maintain my shape after that.

    I imagined my mom. She was still very strong. She could even defeat a tiger at such old age. But she didn''t have that model body, at least not what the standard showed, especially at her old age.

    And I expected myself to look similar to her. I wonder if Baobao would stay the same later…

    …

    …

    After a while, I could sense that the helicopter descended and landed on the ground. Meng Bao finally opened the blanket that covered my body, "Jie, we''re finally here!"

    "Oh, we''ve arrived? That''s fast," I commented.

    "Of course, I don''t want to miss the chance!" Meng Bao said.

    We stepped down from the helicopter and walked to the door leading straight to Mr. Yang''s office. I''ve seen this door so many times from Mr. Yang''s office because apparently, this was made exclusively for Meng Bao, so he could enter the office with his helicopter.

    I couldn''t believe that I had the chance to enter through this door with the same lazy, good-for-nothing Young Master that my ex-boss always slandered every single day.

    When the door was opened, Mr. Yang was sitting at his desk, as usual, reading some documents alone. It had only been two days since the last time I saw him, but somehow it looked like he aged ten times older in two days.

    "Dad! I''m here with my future wife!" Meng Bao claimed proudly.

    Mr. Yang looked up, and he only hummed for a moment before raising his head. I held my breath, expecting him to be surprised, but he only smiled, "Let''s have a family talk together."

    Meng Bao and I sat on the sofa while Mr. Yang sat on the opposite side. He was drinking the coffee that was made by the temporary secretary, and he frowned.

    "Peh, it tastes so weird," Mr. Yang complained.

    Well, of course, he was used to drinking my coffee. It would take time for him to adjust to a new taste.

    He stared at me, who was nervous, and at Meng Bao, who looked so proud. He was like a kid who wanted to show an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime achievement to his dad.

    "I told you, dad. I will find her in the future. Now I found her! This is Batman Jie that I''ve been talking about for my entire life!" Meng Bao said proudly.

    "I really didn''t expect Secretary Shi to be that girl you''ve been searching for fifteen years. But I guess she does fit the description of that Batman Jie you''re talking about," Mr. Yang commented.

    "Yes, and guess what? We met through that app made by Jinxing, that Rent A Boyfriend app!" Meng Bao added.

    "Oh, so Secretary Shi must''ve been accidentally hired you, and you''re free enough to join that kind of weird app instead of replacing your old dad in this office, right?"

    "Hehe," Meng Bao scratched his head. He didn''t seem to be burdened at all with Mr. Yang''s words. A proof that he didn''t have any intention to take care of this business.

    Though, I believed that Meng Bao could be a great CEO if he wanted to. His business mind was amazing, and he wouldn''t have had any trouble fitting in as the new CEO, knowing that most of the people here already knew him.

    Too bad he was a lazy bum, rich lazy bum.

    Mr. Yang sighed, "Well, I know that Secretary Shi is a good woman. She has been working in this office for seven years, and she has a great work ethic. At least, when I have my grandchildren, I can wish that they inherited Secretary Shi''s diligent nature, not your lazy bum one, Yang Menghuo."

    "Aish, Dad, I''m not that bad," Meng Bao said. "Just ask Ying Jie. She will tell you that I can be diligent as well!"

    Wait, why would you pit me in this!? Damn you, Meng Bao!

    I gulped when Mr. Yang stared at me, "W—Well, he can be diligent when it''s about a few things…."

    What few things? I didn''t know myself.

    Mr. Yang leaned on the chair and then said, "I''ve said before that I will give my blessing if my daughter-in-law is you, right? So I will give my blessing now, Shi Ying."

    Meng Bao and I gasped out of shock. We didn''t expect it would be this easy!

    "But with one requirement…." Mr. Yang''s lips perked up a bit, and he said, "You must be able to force Yang Menghuo to work in here after you two got married."
