"Normal my ass, Ye Xiao, what the hell are you thinking? I asked you to help me to the bedroom, I can't wear these clothes!" Xia Mingyue was seething with anger.

Ye Xiao, upon hearing Xia Mingyue's words, was immediately very confused and looked at Xia Mingyue with a face that couldn't understand what she meant, "Isn't it still going to the bedroom? Of course, clothes should come off, otherwise it's really..."

"Ye Xiao!" Xia Mingyue almost squeezed these words out from between her clenched teeth.

Seeing that Xia Mingyue was truly angry, Ye Xiao chuckled awkwardly, walked over to help her, and said, "Don't be mad, didn't I just misunderstand? Doesn't this exactly reflect how pure Ye Xiao really is?"

Pure!

Xia Mingyue really couldn't understand how the word 'pure' could be applied to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao helped Xia Mingyue into the bedroom, and as soon as he walked in, he was greeted by a refreshing fragrance that was uplifting to the spirit. If possible, Ye Xiao would have liked to stay here and continue enjoying it.

But!

"You can go out now!" Right after being helped to the bedroom by Ye Xiao, Xia Mingyue immediately spoke to Ye Xiao without any mercy.

Ye Xiao did not insist on staying, and quickly left. If he didn't leave and Xia Mingyue misunderstood him again, wouldn't that ruin Ye Xiao's reputation?

After seeing Ye Xiao leave the room, Xia Mingyue let out a long sigh of relief. But just then, she sensed a smell on herself that definitely should not be there. Sniffing, Xia Mingyue immediately frowned deeply.

"This scent is Ye Xiao's!" Xia Mingyue murmured, and at the same time, felt extremely angry that her body was bearing Ye Xiao's scent. To Xia Mingyue, it was enough to drive her mad.

However, it was already past eight o'clock. Although the meeting didn't start until nine, who knew if there would be traffic on the road? So, to be cautious, Xia Mingyue endured the aching in her ankle, peeled off her pajamas piece by piece, and found a set of professional attire to wear to work.

Ye Xiao stood outside the door, secretly worrying whether Xia Mingyue could dress herself alone. After all, her foot was seriously injured, though the soothing effect of his Nine Yang Divine Skill meant it wasn't a big problem now. However, if she moved too much, Ye Xiao really worried it might slow her recovery.

About five minutes later, Ye Xiao thought that Xia Mingyue might really not be able to manage by herself, so as a man who could turn the tide, he decided to offer his help. Thus, he reached out to push the door open, but at that moment, the bedroom door opened.

And Ye Xiao's hand, just so haplessly, touched Xia Mingyue's cheek. At that moment, Ye Xiao froze, because he had not expected such a coincidence.

But Xia Mingyue did not see this as a coincidence; she felt it was clear harassment from Ye Xiao.

"Ye Xiao, get the hell away from me!" If it were not for the injury on her foot, Xia Mingyue would have hit Ye Xiao with everything she had right now. At least, that's what she thought; to her, Ye Xiao was just too much.

Ye Xiao had an expression of unfair treatment, but no one knew of his aggrievement, so he hurriedly moved aside.

In her anger, Xia Mingyue forgot about the injury on her foot and took a step forward, only to feel a sharp pain. If there had been a third person in the room, she definitely would have ignored Ye Xiao, even if it meant never paying any attention to him for the rest of her life.

"You... come here!" Xia Mingyue, who had frequently lost her composure today, didn't know what she was even doing anymore.

Seeing Xia Mingyue calling him, Ye Xiao immediately looked puzzled and said, "Didn't you tell me..."

Xia Mingyue's beautiful eyes glared fiercely at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao instantly understood, said nothing further, and quickly went up to cautiously help Xia Mingyue.

"Don't stand so close to me!" Xia Mingyue said to Ye Xiao with disgust.

Ye Xiao sniffed his clothing and indeed it smelled strong—with a mix of sweat, dust, and the heavy smell of alcohol from the bar, it was an unpleasant scent.

"I promise, I'll go buy new clothes today, but I'm a bit short on cash right now!" Ye Xiao chuckled.

"You want to extort me?" Xia Mingyue glared at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao shrugged and said, "Actually, I think this clothing is pretty good. Sure, there's a bit of a smell but, you know, a manly scent, it's quite nice."

"You..." Xia Mingyue was so angry she gritted her teeth.

Subsequently, with Ye Xiao's help, Xia Mingyue quickly made it downstairs. It was now around half-past eight, and there were already quite a few people in the neighborhood. Seeing a beautiful woman being helped by a beggar-like man, one couldn't help but let the imagination wander.

"Miss, do you need help?" An elderly man with a walking stick asked Xia Mingyue with a smile.

Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao, then at the old man, and managed a forced smile, saying, "No... no need."

The old man walked away, but Ye Xiao and Xia Mingyue clearly saw some suspicion in his eyes. Could it be that he doubted something between Ye Xiao and Xia Mingyue?

"Suspecting is right! Suspecting is right!" Ye Xiao chuckled to himself, muttering under his breath.

"Shut your mouth!" How smart Xia Mingyue was, how could he possibly not know what Ye Xiao was thinking right now?

Having helped Xia Mingyue into the passenger seat of the Ferrari, Ye Xiao then sat down in the driver's seat.

"Ah, I wonder if I get out of the Ferrari at the company, will anyone think I'm a wild-type artist?" Ye Xiao laughed proudly, even checking himself out in the rearview mirror.

"Can we go now? If your antics make me late for the 9 AM meeting, I'm cutting your salary in half this month." As the boss, Xia Mingyue could now seemingly only threaten Ye Xiao with a pay cut.

A pay cut?

Clearly, Ye Xiao wasn't too scared, but, as it stood, he was an employed worker, although he was also a billionaire. But for now, Ye Xiao was a driver, a driver who relied on his salary.

"Kind-hearted Mr. Xia, please don't dock my pay anymore. You know how expensive the rent is in Jinling District. If you dock it any more, I won't be able to afford rent this month even if I don't eat or drink," Ye Xiao said, his face a picture of anguish.

Seeing the expression on Ye Xiao's face made Xia Mingyue much happier; at last, there was something she could hold over Ye Xiao.

"Then why aren't you driving yet!" Xia Mingyue rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao quickly stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly drove the Ferrari straight towards the Blue Star Technology Company.

"Drive faster. I must chair today's company meeting, and I absolutely cannot be late," Xia Mingyue said, looking ahead seriously.

"Alright."

The Ferrari deftly weaved through traffic on the road but, as luck would have it,

just as the Ferrari climbed halfway up the overpass, it could go no further.

With Ye Xiao's driving skills, it wasn't possible for the car not to move. If there was a tiny path the car could just manage to traverse, Ye Xiao would have been able to drive at 120 mph. But now, cars surrounded them on all sides.

That's right, there was a traffic jam, and it was at the middle of the overpass.

Ye Xiao looked at the sea of cars, creeping forward a few centimeters at a time, and turned to look at Xia Mingyue's anxious face.

"What are you looking at? What kind of route did you take!" Xia Mingyue huffed, taking her frustration out on Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao immediately let out a wry smile and even laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" Xia Mingyue glared at Ye Xiao. Obviously, she was irritated at the moment, and Ye Xiao's laughter was making her even more annoyed.

Ye Xiao said, "Mr. Xia, it was you who said this route was quicker, wasn't it?"

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Xia Mingyue then remembered; indeed, it was she who had insisted on this route to get ahead faster, but she hadn't anticipated this...

Knowing she was at fault, Xia Mingyue kept quiet, her eyes darting back and forth, full of urgency.

Ye Xiao felt helpless; he could lift the car and run right off the overpass. However, doing that didn't seem to offer any benefits, and it might even reveal his identity as a Martial Artist. Therefore, Ye Xiao reminded himself that he was just an ordinary person now, and ordinary people do ordinary things.

Perhaps because of the long wait, Xia Mingyue still hadn't arrived at the company, prompting assistant Fang Jing to call multiple times to ask what was going on.

"Looks like today's meeting isn't going to happen. How about I take you for a spin instead, Mr. Xia?" Ye Xiao chuckled.

"Fine, you cover the gas!" Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao grinned and said, "Actually, as a company leader, whether or not the meeting takes place, being the first to arrive at the company is very important."

Just kidding, this Ferrari guzzles gas, not less than twenty per kilometer. With such extravagance, who knows how long Ye Xiao's meager salary could last.

However, just then, the cars in front started to move slowly, and soon after, the speed picked up as well.

When the Ferrari finally stopped in the parking lot of Blue Star Technology, it was already 9:40 AM.

Ye Xiao got out of the car and hurried to the passenger door to assist Xia Mingyue.

"Do you see? Should I help you in, or would you prefer someone else to? After all, my assistance would surely wound your pride," Ye Xiao said, looking at Xia Mingyue earnestly.

Ye Xiao also knew his place; after all, his clothes were rather dirty, which could indeed affect Xia Mingyue's image.
