After settling matters related to his own position, Yuan Xi finally started reaching out to Fu Yunzou to inquire about work.

Initially, Yuan Xi thought that rejecting Chen Yang for a day would make him give up. However, he never expected Chen Yang to engage in a battle of persistence.

This time, not only did Chen Yang pack drinks in his bag, but he also brought plenty of snacks and food. While continuing to persuade Yuan Xi, he kept stuffing his mouth with food, clearly determined to wear Yuan Xi down.

Eventually, Yuan Xi fed up with Chen Yang’s persistent harassment, made up his mind to approach Fu Yunzou and ask about the job.

Fu Yunzou had long prepared a position for Yuan Xi, initially planning to have him by his side as an assistant. However, due to Yuan Xi’s previous position and identity, he couldn’t stay comfortably, so Fu Yunzou sought other roles.

As for why Fu Yunzou chose to conceal his identity, it was probably just for the fun of it.

Fu Yushen’s role was that of the junior president at Xingyao Entertainment, and since the company already has a stable system and steady growth, his work wasn’t particularly overwhelming.

However, to avoid suspicion regarding his identity, Fu Yunzou naturally wouldn’t choose the junior president position.

There were plenty of high-ranking and relatively idle positions available at Xingyao Entertainment, and Fu Yunzou just needed to pick one of those roles to temporarily assume under a false name.

When Yuan Xi first learned that his new job was at Xingyao Entertainment, he felt a bit uneasy.

If he remembered correctly, the male lead was the president of Xingyao Entertainment, the female lead was one of its stars, and the annoying person constantly around him was also from Xingyao Entertainment.

So, when Yuan Xi initially found out about the job at Xingyao Entertainment, he felt extremely conflicted.

The benefits and salary Fu Yunzou offered were excellent, and the job itself was relatively simple for Yuan Xi, making it easy to pick up. But the problem was, the workplace was at Xingyao Entertainment!

Xingyao Entertainment was the male lead’s territory, and the female lead was there too. Yuan Xi had been trying to stay as far away from both of them as possible. If he agreed to this job, wouldn’t he be putting himself right under their noses?

Unaware of Yuan Xi’s internal struggle, Fu Yunzou began to wonder if the silence on the other end of the phone meant his offer wasn’t good enough.

On one hand, Yuan Xi would be stepping into the male and female leads’ territory, on the other hand, he’d have to continue enduring Chen Yang’s constant harassment. Neither option seemed particularly appealing to him.

After sending a quick “thank you,” Yuan Xi put his phone away and returned to his tasks.

His already wavering resolve began to falter once again under Chen Yang’s relentless persistence.

In the end, after much consideration—or rather, the temptation of Fu Yunzou’s good looks and the chance to escape Chen Yang’s harassment—Yuan Xi finally decided to accept the job Fu Yunzou had arranged for him.

According to Yunzou, he would only be a minor manager with no real power at Xingyao Entertainment, and Fu Yushen rarely showed up, so there was little chance of running into any of the big names.

After weighing all the factors, Yuan Xi agreed to Fu Yunzou’s job offer.

Watching as the “fish” slowly swam into the net he had carefully laid, Fu Yunzou smiled, clearly pleased.
