A sudden warmth on his face made Song Qiao pause for a moment, then he chuckled, his eyes softening as he looked at Alice, who was happily bouncing on the bed.
Although Alice came from the Xue Rong Camp, she wasn't a bad person; she had been manipulated.
Her current innocent demeanor proved she was a kind girl, and genuinely happy.
As for that Hanaduo...
Thinking of this so-called Hanaduo, Song Qiao's gaze turned cold, and he sneered.
"When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth. I want to see just how capable this Hanaduo is."
At this moment, Alice finally recovered her spirits. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Song Qiao. After throwing on her clothes, she hugged his waist and looked up at him, their eyes meeting. Excitement filled her voice as she asked,
"Song, with you here, I feel so good. I really want to stay like this forever, Song."
Patting Alice's hair in his embrace, Song Qiao glanced at the sky and said with a sigh,
"You silly girl, alright, stop fooling around. Quickly put on your clothes. I'll take you to your workplace later so you can get familiar with the environment."
Upon hearing this, Alice immediately let go and stood up, quickly getting dressed and nodding repeatedly.
Her sparkling eyes looked at Song Qiao, her gaze curving into a smile.
Though unintentional, her demeanor made Song Qiao's throat feel dry, and his speech became a little unnatural. He turned his head aside, urging her,
"Hurry and pack your things. We also need to assess your skills to assign you to the most suitable position."
With these words, Alice became incredibly excited. She packed her luggage with the utmost speed and looked at Song Qiao with anticipation.
"Let's go!"
...
At this moment, in Ye Zhiwei's office.
Ye Zhiwei smiled slightly as she looked at the unexpected visitor, Song Qiao. She stood up from her office chair and leaned her hands on the desk in front of her.
She turned her head to look at Song Qiao, then surveyed Alice standing beside him.
"Since you're here, who is this?"
Song Qiao chuckled at her question and pulled Alice forward.
"She's from Xue Country. The company is short on staff right now, and I think she's quite suitable. You can try her out."
"Oh? A woman from Xue Country?" Ye Zhiwei raised an eyebrow and scrutinized Alice for a long time, a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Facing Ye Zhiwei's appraisal, Alice remained composed and explained naturally.
"Hello, my name is Alice."
"Mm." Ye Zhiwei glanced at Song Qiao, her red lips pursed, and she let out a soft laugh. She casually picked up a book from her desk and handed it to Alice.
"Explain the contents of this to me."
This was considered a small test.
And this test was incredibly simple for Alice.
After just a quick glance at the book, Alice smiled faintly and spoke calmly,
"This is a book by the German economist, Korlistan."
"As for the content, it analyzes the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis. Specifically..."
With just one look, Alice seemed to know the book's contents by heart, without any pause.
This profound knowledge left Ye Zhiwei astonished and speechless.
It was truly surprising.
She had initially thought Alice was just a pretty face that had appeared beside Song Qiao, but she unexpectedly possessed real substance.
However, mere knowledge wasn't enough. Ye Zhiwei thought for a moment and took a document from her desk, handing it to Alice.
"This is some paperwork submitted by the employees below. It contains confidential company information regarding collaborations with other businesses. Please take a good look."
"I haven't read the document yet."
"Can you identify any areas in this document that need improvement, or any loopholes?"
Alice pursed her lips, opened the document, and read through the contents.
She read with remarkable speed.
In about a minute, Alice put the document down and handed it back to Ye Zhiwei with both hands.
"Overall, this document is fine, but some details require minor improvements."
"These details could easily be exploited by the other company, allowing them to make a big fuss."
As she spoke, Alice then pointed out the specific areas that needed attention.
Ye Zhiwei's eyes were filled with surprise.
But she wasn't easily fooled. She also reread the document.
However, she soon discovered that everything Alice had said was true!
This realization sent a jolt of shock through her, and she looked at Alice.
At this moment, her impression of Alice soared several notches.
Such insight and meticulousness were certainly not typical of a woman from Xue Country.
After a moment of thought, Ye Zhiwei suppressed her surprise and composed herself, looking at Alice and asking in a deep voice,
"Then, how do you think these should be improved?"
"That's very simple..."
Alice answered Ye Zhiwei's questions fluently, each response hitting the mark and aligning perfectly with Ye Zhiwei's own thoughts.
This ability left Ye Zhiwei filled with joy. She slowly closed her eyes and then opened them, her gaze shifting to Song Qiao.
"Where did you find her?"
Song Qiao chuckled and casually brushed it off.
"I found her myself. She heard of my fame and sought me out, wanting me to help her find a job. Perhaps it was because I'm handsome."
Seeing that Song Qiao intended to dismiss the matter so easily, Ye Zhiwei didn't press further.
"However, don't keep asking these questions. Do you need people or not? If not, I'll send her to a capital company."
Hearing this, Ye Zhiwei looked at Song Qiao with a half-smile.
His gaze made Song Qiao feel a little awkward, but he didn't show it.
After a long pause, Ye Zhiwei teased,
"I suspect you're afraid An Lin will get jealous, which is why you sent her to me, aren't you?"
Saying this, Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but curse silently in her heart.
Truly a man, what a scumbag!
But regardless of her thoughts, Ye Zhiwei maintained a smile outwardly.
Song Qiao offered no reply to her question, but simply smiled and looked at Alice.
"Work hard here. As for the matter with Hanaduo, I will handle it and won't let him affect you."
Ye Zhiwei rolled her eyes at this, but didn't object. She was quite pleased to have such a talent.
Alice's face lit up with surprise: "Song, thank you so much. Without you, I wouldn't know how I would live my life from now on. I might have been captured again."
Saying this, Alice hugged him again. They appeared incredibly intimate, causing Ye Zhiwei to constantly roll her eyes and curse inwardly.
After the two left, Ye Zhiwei looked at the document, her eyes narrowing.
At the same time, Song Qiao had led Alice to the front of a villa.
Looking at the villa before them, Alice's mouth dropped slightly, her expression one of stunned amazement.
"Wow!"
Song Qiao smiled slightly, "Do you like it? This will be your home from now on."
His reply was a huge hug, and Alice exclaimed in delight, "I love it, Song, you're so good."
"It's only right. After all, I promised you. I have the key to this villa too. If you need anything, you can call me anytime."
"Okay." Alice blinked and, standing on her tiptoes, whispered into his ear, "I will definitely be proactive, Song."
