Chapter 312: Chapter 163: A Ding from Sea Fishing

’No way. Before Xu Xiyue joins the picture, I need to get my fill.’

"Well then, you can’t possibly let her good intentions go to waste."

She gave Chen Mo a sultry look, whispering suggestively in his ear.

"You little lightweight. So weak, but you just love to play."

Chen Mo shot her a glance before pulling her back onto the racetrack.

The strange thing was, every time he took her for a spin on the track, it would start to rain in Modu.

The weather was truly fickle and ever-changing.

...

「The next morning.」

After a long-overdue cardio session, Chen Mo and Pan Kejia left the apartment together.

But before they left, Pan Kejia had Chen Mo set up his face and fingerprint ID on the door lock.

’That way, he can save time entering the passcode when he comes over in the future.’

’A few seconds saved means a few more seconds he can spend with me.’

’Once there are more "sisters" in the picture, every second of his time will be precious.’

’It would be a terrible waste.’

By the time Chen Mo arrived at the office, the workday had already started.

But Xu Xiyue had arrived much earlier, and she had already handled the company’s affairs, putting everything in perfect order.

Moreover, she had adopted Chen Mo’s method of using mid-level managers to temporarily act as department heads.

This kept the company running smoothly while also assessing the abilities of these individuals.

After getting a brief overview, Chen Mo didn’t interfere, letting her handle everything as she saw fit.

He sat in his office, leisurely looking over some of the company’s projects.

"KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~"

Just then, someone knocked on his office door.

"Come in."

He didn’t even look up.

"CLICK CLACK CLACK~"

The door opened, and the soft sound of high heels echoed as someone walked into the office.

He looked up and saw Xu Xiyue.

Today, Xu Xiyue was wearing a white blouse and a black, form-fitting pencil skirt.

Her fair, smooth, and slender legs were bare, accentuated by a pair of white high heels.

She had undone the top two buttons of her blouse, a necessary precaution that kept the rest from bursting free under heroic pressure.

But because those two buttons were undone, you could catch a faint glimpse of a snow-white line.

The allure of that pale line, combined with her stunningly beautiful face, made her overwhelmingly charming.

No wonder that even as jinxed as she was, there were still men who wanted to keep her.

Even if they wouldn’t let her work, of course.

"President Chen, I’m here to give you a work report."

Xu Xiyue was very attentive to workplace etiquette; she showed great respect for her boss, Chen Mo.

"President Xu, have a seat."

Chen Mo gestured for her to sit down.

"President Chen, the projects our company is currently following up on are..."

"Based on my assessment, the potential of these projects is limited. They won’t make much money, but the risk of loss is also low."

"Regarding company management at present..."

"In terms of human resources..."

"The company’s current financial situation is excellent..."

"Next, we will need to recruit..."

After sitting down, Xu Xiyue wasted no time. She efficiently summarized the company’s current situation for Chen Mo.

She reported on the affairs of every department in meticulous detail.

It was hard to believe she had only started yesterday, yet already had such a thorough understanding of the entire company.

Admittedly, Panshi Venture Capital was a small company, but her grasp of it was still a bit ridiculous.

"What time did you leave yesterday?"

Chen Mo asked, looking at her with some curiosity.

Xu Xiyue was certainly capable, but this level of understanding clearly took time to acquire.

"I didn’t check the time. It was 2 AM when I got home."

Xu Xiyue said it nonchalantly.

’Sleep? Who needs sleep? I’ll have plenty of time to sleep in three months.’

’Time is too precious. Of course I have to use it for work.’

’I have to prove myself. I have to create a successful project.’

’Can I do that by sleeping?’

’Oh, wait. Sleeping with Chen Mo might actually work.’

"You should still make sure to rest. Otherwise, you won’t have any energy to celebrate when the project succeeds."

Chen Mo looked at her, surprised, and couldn’t help but offer the reminder.

"Don’t worry. Even if I don’t have any energy, I can still cooperate with your celebration."

Xu Xiyue understood Chen Mo’s "meaning" and immediately nodded in assurance.

?

Hearing this, Chen Mo was baffled.

’Seriously? What is she on about?’

He felt that Xu Xiyue’s comprehension skills were seriously flawed.

’Is the "celebration" I’m talking about the same "celebration" she’s thinking of?’

"I’m afraid if you keep this up, you won’t live to see the day we celebrate."

"I’ve understood everything you’ve said. Just proceed according to your own ideas. I trust you."

Chen Mo looked over the various reports she had prepared. He couldn’t find a single fault.

’Since she’s this capable, might as well let her keep at it.’

"Understood, President Chen."

A smile born of trust appeared on Xu Xiyue’s beautiful face once again.

"From now on, let’s use titles at work, but you can just call me by my name after hours," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Then you can call me whatever you like—Xu Xiyue, Xiyue, or even Yue’er is fine."

Xu Xiyue nodded, also telling Chen Mo not to call her President Xu.

’Chen Mo trusts me so much. I’m willing to get a little closer to him, too.’

"Alright, Xiyue. You can get back to work."

Chen Mo knew she was busy, so he didn’t keep her for idle chit-chat.

"Okay."

Xu Xiyue left his office.

"My decision to bring her here was absolutely brilliant."

Watching her graceful figure retreat, Chen Mo couldn’t help but break into a wide smile.

’She works her ass off, and she’s easy on the eyes.’

’Plus, she can make my projects unlucky, which helps me make money.’

’It’s simply perfect.’

There wasn’t much going on at the company, so Chen Mo left in the afternoon before closing time.

Tomorrow was Saturday, and he had to go sea fishing with Tang Tianyu.

He hadn’t fished much before; it wasn’t a hobby he usually had.

He couldn’t catch anything with a normal rod and line.

But he could with a new-energy fishing rod. And for the line, two strands would be best.

One neutral wire and one live wire.
