Stepping out of Qiuming Labor Market, Ye Xiao saw Xia Mingyue standing next to a red Ferrari. He glanced at Xia Mingyue's clothes, then at the wild Ferrari and was instantly rendered speechless. This girl really didn't know how to match her clothes – not at all!

"Hey, beauty, what do you need me for?" Ye Xiao walked over with a he-he laugh, speaking casually.

Xia Mingyue turned to look at Ye Xiao and sized him up, asking, "Why are you in Bird City?"

"I'm curious too, why are you in Bird City?"

When Xia Mingyue heard Ye Xiao's question, she immediately gave him a glare and said, "Do I need to report my whereabouts to you?"

Hearing Xia Mingyue's words and laughing himself, Ye Xiao, however, chose not to say anything.

Seeing that Ye Xiao just laughed and kept quiet, Xia Mingyue immediately frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Really want to know?" Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow.

"Speak!"

"Alright, what I want to say is, do I need to report where I am to you?" Ye Xiao mirrored Xia Mingyue's own words back to her, almost verbatim.

Xia Mingyue was left speechless by what Ye Xiao said.

They had no relationship whatsoever. Why on earth should Ye Xiao tell her where he was!

Looking at Ye Xiao, Xia Mingyue appeared to be contemplating something. However, about ten seconds later, she suddenly looked at Ye Xiao with ill intent and said, "You applied for a security job at our Blue Star Technology Company?"

"Eh, it seems I did. If you think I'm not up to the mark, I won't insist. This is a labor market, and I'm sure there are other jobs I'm fit for, like bricklaying!" Ye Xiao thought to himself, Little girl, you want me to beg to work at your Blue Star Technology Company? Humph, I'm not that pathetic; I have my pride.

But...

Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You've been accepted."

"What?" Ye Xiao was stunned upon hearing Xia Mingyue's words, clearly not expecting such an outcome.

"On what basis?" Ye Xiao instinctively asked.

Looking at Ye Xiao, Xia Mingyue replied, "You applied, we accepted, does that require a reason? Besides, you're not an undocumented citizen without an ID card, are you?"

"How could I be? I'm a legitimate good citizen of Yan Country, don't believe me? Look!" said Ye Xiao, taking out his somewhat black ID card.

Who knew that Xia Mingyue would snatch it away in an instant? She frowned immediately upon taking it and said, "Why is it sticky?"

"Eh? The pocket's a bit deep, inside..." Ye Xiao chuckled.

Ye Xiao intended to give a proper explanation for why his ID card was sticky, but Xia Mingyue's expression darkened in an instant, and she quickly took out a tissue from the car and wrapped it up with a look of utter disgust.

Watching Xia Mingyue's actions and her expression, Ye Xiao was extremely puzzled – he simply couldn't fathom her motives.

But just then!

"Now you're an employee of Blue Star Technology Company, and the head of your department is inside. You can choose not to work for us, but your ID card... I'll throw it into the river to wash!" Xia Mingyue said to Ye Xiao with a cunning face.

Only then did Ye Xiao realize why Xia Mingyue had taken his ID card – the damn woman was worried he might run off.

"You... are despicable!" Ye Xiao said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Xia Mingyue's face burst with anger, but her fury quickly dissipated, replaced by a cold smirk, and she slowly approached Ye Xiao.

Seeing Xia Mingyue suddenly close in on him, Ye Xiao was baffled. What was this girl up to?

"Ye Xiao!"

"How do you know my name?" Ye Xiao asked, surprised.

"It's on your ID card!"

"Oh!"

"Ye Xiao!" Xia Mingyue's expression suddenly softened; not at all harsh, instead, it was gentle as water.

Ye Xiao looked at Xia Mingyue's expression. The girl deliberately stuck out her already pretty perky bosom, and moved even closer to Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao was a normal man, especially normal in the physiological sense.

"Uh, what's up?" Ye Xiao pursed his lips, feeling a bit rattled inside.

Xia Mingyue's body leaned even closer to Ye Xiao, especially her mouth, which almost touched Ye Xiao's neck. A wave of hot breath teased him, and he almost couldn't take it anymore.

Ye Xiao, this guy, really had poor self-control.

"I want to thank you," Xia Mingyue's voice took on a coquettish tone, articulating each word, which, at that moment, sounded absolutely soul-stirring to Ye Xiao's ears!

Ye Xiao felt his mouth go dry, realizing this girl wanted to repay him, and by the looks of it, refusing her body was out of the question.

Ye Xiao's hand, unable to resist, started to reach for Xia Mingyue's small hand. Instead of dodging, she extended her hand to him again.

Ye Xiao was secretly delighted, thinking how cooperative this girl was, with such big, nice hands—touching them would undoubtedly feel—hee hee, and finally, Ye Xiao's hand managed to touch hers.

"How's that?" Xia Mingyue's voice changed slightly.

Ye Xiao, squeezing her hand without any hesitation, casually remarked, "Very soft, the touch is amazing."

Snap! Snap! Snap!

This wasn't the sound of someone being slapped, but the sound of photographs being taken!

Xia Mingyue swiftly retreated, glanced at her cell phone, and with a triumphant face, she slid into the car!

Ye Xiao stood there stunned.

What was happening? It felt like... like he'd jumped right into a trap. It really did!

At that moment, Fang Jing, who had been watching the whole time, also got into the car!

Xia Mingyue poked her little head out of the car, a picture of accomplished mischief, and laughed, "Ye Xiao, dare to run, and with your ID and these photos, I've got evidence of your indecency!"

Xia Mingyue's voice echoed in Ye Xiao's ears as he watched her red Ferrari speed away.

"Damn it!" It wasn't until Xia Mingyue had left that Ye Xiao truly realized, "Son of a bitch, I've been played by this little maid!"

Ye Xiao had been had, thoroughly had by Xia Mingyue. He was always the one playing tricks on others, but this time, Xia Mingyue had expertly set him up!

Ye Xiao really wanted to run after that Ferrari, drag the two beauties out of the car, and give them a piece of his mind a hundred and eighty times over to settle the score.

Of course, that was just subconsciously wishful thinking. What had brought Ye Xiao to Bird City? Wasn't he here because of Qin Yulu's cold poison and his own background? If he were to truly act on his impulsive thoughts, surely someone would recognize that he was the Hell's Asura from Minghai City. That would really start the trouble, and Ye Xiao's name would definitely become notorious—not a good thing. In the past, he may not have cared, but ever since Ling Hengyu told him his parents were no ordinary people, and that he had many powerful, unknown enemies, it was clear that Ye Xiao had to keep a low profile.

So, considering all these factors, Ye Xiao inevitably found himself walking into the Qiuming Labor Market!

As soon as Ye Xiao reached the entrance of the labor market, he saw Li Shengrong, Yan Luo, and Wang Dongliang walking out, with Wang Dongliang still grumbling to Li Shengrong.

"Director Li, I paid that person a thousand yuan, about that money..."

"What about it? The thousand yuan is your business; I didn't tell you to hit someone, did I? Is your head full of shit?" Li Shengrong was already very annoyed, and hearing Wang Dongliang's words just made him angrier, so he began to yell at him.

Wang Dongliang was in a tough spot. Indeed, Li Shengrong had told him to hit Ye Xiao, but the result was that he beat up an unrelated person.

"Director Li, Xia Mingyue sent me to find you!" Ye Xiao chuckled as he approached Li Shengrong, thinking he might be working under Li Shengrong from now on, so it was crucial to make a good first impression on his boss.

"Xia Mingyue?" Li Shengrong glanced at Ye Xiao, then immediately spoke sternly, "How can you call the general manager by her name? Remember, from now on, it's Mr. Xia!"

Li Shengrong had just seen Ye Xiao being pulled aside by Xia Mingyue for a private talk, which led him to believe that Ye Xiao might be with Xia Mingyue. And if today's incident got out, it could be this guy's doing.

Thus, Li Shengrong was exceedingly cautious speaking to Ye Xiao, fearful that Ye Xiao would convey something untoward to Xia Mingyue's ears.

Ye Xiao, unaware of all the scheming in Li Shengrong's mind, quickly replied, "Yes, yes, I got it, Director Li. Mr. Xia said I've been hired and told me to find you!"

With Ye Xiao's words, Li Shengrong was even more convinced that Ye Xiao was Xia Mingyue's man. If not, why would Xia Mingyue personally hire Ye Xiao? Moreover, hiring security at the labor market was against the company policy, yet Xia Mingyue still hired Ye Xiao. Could all this be just a coincidence? Li Shengrong didn't think so!

"Since Mr. Xia personally hired you, I obviously have nothing to say. Come on, let's go back to the company with us," said Li Shengrong, though internally he thought if Mr. Xia had hired this security guard, then she likely wouldn't fault him for being too harsh back at the company. If she did, he'd throw this kid out and see what Mr. Xia would say then!

Ye Xiao, who had never worked in a company before, was unaware of all the internal company politics and didn't give them a second thought as he followed Li Shengrong and co. into a Passat, with Wang Dongliang driving swiftly down the road!
