The director's office.
An Yibei gave the door a polite knock and a sonorous voice inside said, "Come in!"
He pushed the door open and stood in the doorway.
Director Tao was playing darts when An Yibei arrived, and was surprised to see the latter in his office."Mr. An? To what do we owe this pleasure?"
An Yibei adjusted his glasses and gave Director Tao a detached smile."I offered to buy Mr. Wei a cup of tea, but that heartless guy turned me down. I had no choice but to come to you instead."
Director Tao forced a smile."Well... do sit down. I'll ask my secretary to bring us some tea."
He dialed a number on the landline and left a few instructions. Looking up, he saw that An Yibei had already sat down and was tapping his fingers lightly on the black table."Director Tao, I see that you've been quite free lately."
"I'm doing alright, " Director Tao said in a noncommittal tone."Thousand Island's business is booming. Mr. An, you're an excellent businessman."
"Is that congratulations or sarcasm?" An Yibei raised an eyebrow.
"Congratulations, of course!" Director Tao laughed uneasily.
An Yibei suddenly rose to his feet and leaned forward with his palms flat on the table, staring at Director Tao with an impassive face. Director Tao was completely overwhelmed by An Yibei's imposing manner and was intimidated.
His knees buckled and Director Tao fell back down in his big office chair.
"Why are you so nervous, Director Tao? I wanted to thank you, that's all." An Yibei gave him a knowing smile."Apart from your congratulations, I'd also like to thank you for hiring an employee I just fired and viciously attacking my girlfriend..."
An Yibei's voice grew colder as he spoke, until if felt like it could freeze the air.
Director Tao pursed his lips."Mr. An, I'm sure there's been a misunderstanding..."
"Heh." An Yibei smirked. He then picked up a dart and walked casually toward the door.
Suddenly, he turned around and threw the dart!
Thud —
It hit the bullseye, which was right above Director Tao's head!
Director Tao broke into a cold sweat and nearly fell out of his chair.
"I'll take you on and fight you to the end, if a fight is what you want! But, get my girlfriend involved again, and you'll see what I'm capable of!"
After that, he opened the door and promptly left before Director Tao could say another word.
Yet to recover from the fright, Director pondered for a while before dialing the number of his confidant."Stop collecting information on An Yibei and his girlfriend."
"But didn't you leave us instructions to dig up dirt on him whenever we can?"
"No, we're not doing it anymore. We don't want a man like that as our enemy. The guy is so formidable."
"..."

The relentless Mr. An became an uxorious husband the moment he arrived home.
After feeding Pudding, he washed his hands and began to cook dinner.
In the living room, Ai Bao was watching a variety show on TV. The table in front of her was covered with bowls of various nuts he had shelled himself, as well as fruit that he had cut into small pieces.
Ai Bao worried that if An Yibei kept taking care of her this way, she would soon need to buy clothes one size up...
Her phone rang at that moment. Picking it up, she heard Miaomiao, the girl in charge of miscellaneous tasks in the online voice-acting community, on the other end.
"Baobao, this is Miaomiao. Do you have a minute?"
Chewing on some pecans, Ai Bao replied, "Sure. Why?"
"We ran into some difficulty for this new play we're working on... Well, the voice actress for a supporting role got sick, but we're kind of in a rush to get the trailer ready. Do you think you can cover it for us?"
"No problem." Ai Bao agreed promptly.
However, when she opened the file Miaomiao sent her, she was dumbfounded.
The character was the most popular courtesan of Winter Jasmine.
And the first scene was a love scene where she was going to seduce the protagonist.
