Back in the office, Luo Ke had just sat down when Zhao Min came in to report again.

“Chair Luo, Director Luo wants to see you.”

  

Luo Ke frowned slightly, but nodded, “Let him come in.”

  

Lin Sifei looked at Luo Ke strangely, wondering why she showed such a difficult expression. Since expressions on Luo Ke’s face were rare, then was this director difficult or something?

Lin Sifei immediately imagined a thrilling business war in her head. However, she then saw a middle-aged man with a smirk and a beer belly.

  

Lin Sifei: … 

She had quite a bit of experience with high level people in the entertainment industry since she was there for so many years. By her instincts, this was not a powerful person.

  

“Second uncle, why are you here?”

  

Lin Sifei stood up from the table, second uncle!!!

She stared in shock. If she recalled correctly, in the original book, the villain would eventually be betrayed, resulting in her death. These relatives of hers did quite a bit to result in this. Or, in other words, it was all of their doing. 

  

“Second uncle, sit down, what are you here for?” Luo Ke poured him a cup of tea.

  

Director Luo said “Oh, Xiao Ke, can’t your second uncle come visit you even if there is nothing wrong?”

  

“Of course you can.” Luo Ke put her hands on the table, “It’s just that during work hours, it’s better to talk about business.”

  

She looked so serious that Director Luo moved in his chair, having been put in a slightly awkward situation, “Since you said that, let’s talk about business affairs. I heard that you are going to fire Yan Yafei.”

  

Lin Sifei rolled his eyes next to him. I knew that he wanted to talk about it from the beginning.

“What do you think about the issue then, second uncle?”

  

Upon hearing her words, Director Luo knew that there was still room for change. He smiled and shifted in his seat. “She is a newcomer and will definitely make mistakes. Give her one more chance. Moreover, she has a very good relationship with Yuan Mo. Do note that we would probably want to cultivate a good relationship with the Yuan Corporation.”

Luo Ke touched the table with her fingers, her eyes sharp, “This Yan Yafei’s social network is quite extensive, so much so that she knows someone in the Yuan family.”

  

“The main reason is that she is very kind and innocent. Such a person will certainly attract other outstanding people.” Director Luo looked at her expression, “This should be just a trivial matter. I’m still your second uncle, right.”

  

“Second uncle, you’re joking. She’s just an employee; if second uncle wants her to stay, then she may stay.” Luo Ke took a sip of tea. “However, there must be punishment since no repercussions at all cannot be justified. How about, she will be fined one month’s salary, and in the next month she will relearn with the interns.”

  

“One month?” Director Luo frowned, “Will it be too long.”

“Then a week will be fine, since Second uncle already told me in person.” Luo Ke put down the teacup, 

  

Director Luo looked at her hand, knowing that she meant it was settled. He opened his mouth to laugh twice, “Then it is decided.”

  

He stood up, gathered his suit and walked out.

  

As soon as he left, Lin Sifei ran to Luo Ke and stared at her accusingly. Why can’t you fire the heroine, and your second uncle is not a good person either.  

Luo Ke laughed, picked her up, and put her on her knees.

  

She struggled a bit, wanting to run, but Luo Ke refused to let go. Sensing that her cat seemed to be angry, Luo Ke rubbed her back.

  

“Okay, stop getting angry, my second uncle is kind to me, and since he has brought up this type of trivial matter, I can’t refuse it anymore.”

  

""

Lin Sifei momentarily hated that iron cannot become steel. 1 Your second uncle has bad intentions. He has to rely on you because of his inability now, but he will backstab you the fastest in the future.

She was angry that she was not a human, otherwise she would have said she knew the future and told her everything. But Luo Ke might not believe it. After all, one side was her second uncle, who had been with her since she was a child, and the other was a person of unknown origin. Of course Luo Ke would not believe her. 

  

Lin Sifei felt a little discouraged. There were so many difficulties in front of her.

  

Luo Ke touched her, leaned on the back of the chair, and narrowed her eyes slightly. “Yan Yafei, however, is quite interesting. Not only does she know the chairman of Yuan Corporation, but she can also make Second uncle speak for her.”

 

Lin Sifei clapped her paws together anxiously. Yeah, yeah, your second uncle and Yuan Corporation will get together to betray you, although that’s in the future…

Luo Ke closed her eyes to rest, leaving Lin Sifei wondering what she was thinking of.

  

“Chair Luo, the personnel department head asked do we still need a resignation certificate for Yan Yafei?”

  

Luo Ke suddenly opened her eyes, “Hasn’t the resignation certificate been issued yet?”

  

Zhao Min was startled by her, “Then, then I will urge them to hurry up.”

  

“No need.” Luo Ke shifted her gaze, “Yan Yafei will be deducted one month’s salary and turned into an intern for one week, but no need to fire her anymore.”

Zhao Min affirmed softly and closed the door carefully.

  

Luo Ke lowered her head and looked at Lin Sifei, “Xiaoxiao, I thought it was Yan Yafei who went to ask second uncle to help, but now it doesn’t seem to be the case. If the personnel department hadn’t issued the certificate yet, how did Second uncle know?”

  

Lin Sifei looked up at her with bright eyes, “Meow!” Did you finally find out?

  

Luo Ke took a deep breath and picked up the phone on the table, “Zhao Min, have Yan Yafei come to my office.”

“Yes, Chair Luo.”

  

Soon, the office door was pushed open. Yan Yafei bowed as soon as she came in, “I’m sorry, Chair Luo.”

  

Lin Sifei saw her, meowed, waved her tail to the side and laid down, not looking at her.

  

Luo Ke took a look at her reaction and smiled slightly.

  

Yan Yafei was stunned when she saw Luo Ke’s small smile.

When Luo Ke looked at her, her smile disappeared instantly, face turning back to the cold boss Luo Ke, “Have you received the news from the personnel department?”

  

“I just received it.” Yan Yafei lowered her head.

  

“Do you know Director Luo Shengping?”

  

“Yes.”

  

“How did you meet?”

Yan Yafei raised her eyes and looked at her carefully. Looking at the corner of Luo Ke’s eyes, she lowered her head again, “When I first came to the company to apply for a job, I thought he was just an ordinary employee and helped him hold something.”

  

Luo Ke nodded slightly, “No wonder second uncle said you are kind.”

  

Yan Yafei smiled, embarrassed.

  

“Then you go back and work hard.”

“Yes, Chair Luo.”

  

Watching her leave, Luo Ke took a sip of tea, “It seems that my second uncle has talked a lot with her. Such a person has a close relationship with the Yuan family…”

   

She tapped her fingers on the table top, which emitted a dull sound.

  

Lin Sifei meowed and looked up at her.

  

“Are you worried?” Luo Ke bends over to pick her up, taps the tip of her nose, “These are all trivialities.”

“Meow~”. So arrogant.

  

Luo Ke saw her white eyes and buried her face into her belly for a while.

  

Lin Sifei’s fur spiked up and her paw frantically scratched at Luo Ke’s hair. What are you doing! Shameless!

  

Luo Ke’s hair was so messed up all over after, she had to ask Zhao Min for a comb and a mirror to redo her hair. 

Lin Sifei snorted coldly, showed her claws and waved them around, warning her not to rub her next time.

  

Luo Ke reluctantly knocked on her forehead with a comb, “Did you forget who is raising you?”

  

Lin Sifei raised her chin. Huh, what can you do about me, you probably would not get rid of me, so ha!

   

She knew she was favored, and she was acting unscrupulous. But so what?

Lin Sifei happily pointed her butt at Luo Ke and jumped to the opposite table.

  

She clicked open the tablet and played Candy Crush in silence.

  

“Zzzzz.”

  

Lin Sifei’s ears moved, and couldn’t help turning her head to look at the source of the sound. A huge bee was hovering in front of her face.

Lin Sifei froze for three seconds, and then yowled and turned around to run.

  

The bee, startled by her movements, continued to buzz after her.

  

Lin Sifei’s pair of cat eyes locked on Luo Ke sitting at the desk. She grabbed Luo Ke’s trousers then leapt to the top of Luo Ke’s head.   

 

Luo Ke’s hair, which had just been brushed out, was once again messed up, but Lin Sifei also forgot her arrogance just now, meowing for help.

Luo Ke looked at the bee flying around and listened to the meows exploding next to her ears. Finally, she could not help but burst out laughing.

  

Lin Sifei was almost crying.  Don’t laugh, get rid of the bee. 

  

“Do you know what you did wrong now? You know who raises you now?”

  

“Meow~meow~” I know, I know, it’s you, it’s you!

Lin Sifei lowered her head and meowed in her ears expectantly, with her slightly cool nose resting on Luo Ke’s cheek.

  

Luo Ke stood up with a smile, and slowly drove the bee to the window and out with a folder.

  

Lin Sifei’s tight body finally relaxed, and she softened into a liquid cat in Luo Ke’s arms.

  

Luo Ke smiled and touched her chin, “Little naughty cat.”

Lin Sifei has gotten a little too unscrupulous (and cute)! Ahhhh thanks for the comments again, please continue so I get more motivated to do my best translating! Thanks for reading :3
