Chapter 94: You Can’t Be So Short-sighted!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mu Qing was taken aback. The last time, he had intended to assure Old Sir that he would help Master Bo find the benefits of having a girlfriend and expedite his journey to the marriage altar. But Master Bo had almost sent him off to Africa instead! And now, Master Bo had seemingly undergone a transformation? Could it be that Miss Fang Yuan possessed such irresistible charm that even the ever-reserved Master Bo had succumbed to the allure of love?

“Thank you, Master Bo. I’ll make it a priority to find a girlfriend,” Mu Qing replied earnestly, ready to depart with the documents. However, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Bo Yi’s phone lighting up—a WeChat message had arrived.

What astonished Mu Qing wasn’t the fact that someone had messaged Bo Yi, but rather the locked wallpaper on Bo Yi’s phone—a photo of a girl! And that girl was unmistakably Miss Fang Yuan!

“Is it to your liking?” Bo Yi sensed Mu Qing’s gaze and asked casually, “Or is it not to your liking?”

“Of course not…” Mu Qing stammered nervously, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. “Miss Fang Yuan’s beauty is truly exceptional. Words like ‘breathtaking’ and ‘ethereal’ fall short in describing her allure. She’s as beautiful as a celestial being gracing the mortal realm—a one-of-a-kind, heaven-sent match for you, Master Bo!”

A slight smile tugged at Master Bo’s lips. “You certainly have a way with words.”

“I lack experience, but it’s mainly because Miss Fang Yuan’s beauty has stirred up all the poetic descriptions in my mind. Her beauty is truly unparalleled!”

“Mu Qing.”

“Yes, Master Bo, please give me your instructions.” Mu Qing was anxious, uncertain about what Master Bo intended.

“Have 1 ever treated you unfairly in terms of compensation since you started working with me at the age of eight?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Qing hurriedly responded, “Absolutely not, Master Bo. The compensation you provide is top-notch in the industry! I’m already extremely satisfied!”

Bo Yi continued, “No, you shouldn’t settle for mediocrity.”

Mu Qing was puzzled. “Huh?”

Bo Yi clarified, “Starting this month, we’re doubling your salary.”

Mu Qing was overflowing with excitement upon hearing this. “Thank you, Master Bo! In the future, if you assign me any task, especially if it’s related to Miss Fang Yuan, I promise to handle it with utmost dedication. You can count on my unwavering commitment!”

Bo Yi simply responded with an affirming “Mhm.”

“If there are no further instructions, 1’11 take my leave now,” Mu Qing stated. He hadn’t expected that complimenting Miss Fang Yuan’s beauty would prove more effective than finding a girlfriend. His salary hadn’t seen an increase in three years, and all it took was a compliment to double it!

Just as Mu Qing was about to leave, he was halted by Bo Yi’s voice.

“Wait a moment,” Bo Yi interjected. It appeared he had something else on his mind. “Regarding the recent acquisitions of several companies…”

“Are you referring to those luxury goods conglomerates, Master Bo? Rest assured, they are now under the ownership of Bo Corporation!” Mu Qing assured.

Bo Yi continued, “What are your thoughts on whether she would appreciate their new Long Love series?”

Mu Qing suddenly realized that Bo Yi had called him for this very reason! He hastened to respond, “Master Bo, you must be jesting! With Miss Fang Yuan’s extraordinary beauty, she would look stunning in anything!”

“Oh?” Bo Yi raised an eyebrow, regarding Mu Qing with curiosity.

“I mean, as long as it’s a gift from you, Master Bo, Miss Fang Yuan will undoubtedly adore it! What you’re presenting isn’t just a gift; it’s a sincere gesture from you to Miss Fang Yuan. She will undoubtedly be deeply touched upon receiving it!”

Bo Yi then remarked, “Starting now, you have weekends off. No more overtime work.”

Mu Qing couldn’t contain his joy. “Thank you so much, Master Bo!”

At the Cheng Family.

Observing that Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui had strolled off into the garden, Auntie Wang urgently summoned Cheng Yuqi to her side. “Lady Yuqi, why did you personally purchase snacks for Master and Madam? It’s quite exhausting!” Before Cheng Yuqi could respond, Auntie Wang added with concern, “Simply trying to win over Master and Madam won’t suffice. The most crucial individual to consider is Young Master Bo…”

Upon hearing Bo Yi’s name, Cheng Yuqi’s brows furrowed.

“Yi’s thoughts are centered on Sister now… You witnessed it in the garden the other day. He’s become rather distant towards me. I’m not sure if it’s because of the soup 1 made for Grandpa Bo, but his opinion of me has clearly soured. Even Grandpa Bo doesn’t treat me as warmly as before.”

“In that case, you must take action to rectify the situation!” Auntie Wang offered her analysis. “Master and Madam may still have affection for you at the moment, and they will continue to pamper you. However, as time passes, their affection for Sixth Miss will only deepen.”

Cheng Yuqi sighed, her expression troubled. “I understand.”

Auntie Wang continued, “Lady Yuqi, you must establish a connection with Young Master Bo as soon as possible to secure your future well-being!” “But what should 1 do?” Cheng Yuqi had experienced a series of setbacks and found it challenging to maintain her dignity. She hesitated to take that step. After all, she had lived as an affluent young lady for many years and had never endured such humiliations. Ever since Fang Yuan’s return, she had endured more setbacks in a short period than she had in the past decade!

“Lady Yuqi, trust me…” Auntie Wang leaned in close and whispered into her ear, making sure no one else was around.

Cheng Yuqi hesitated.. “Will this plan work? What if…”
