Lin Ping and Lin An

The company where Lin Fei previously worked specialized in design and renovation.

He, Xu Youle, and Zheng Qian were all in the design department, responsible for providing renovation plans for customers to choose from.

After all three of them were fired, Xu Youle figured that since they had to find new jobs anyway, they might as well join forces to start their own small studio.

Zheng Qian agreed with this proposal.

Therefore, Xu Youle took the initiative to arrange a meeting with Lin Fei.

It was just unexpected that Lin Fei had struck it rich and no longer needed to struggle through a startup with them.

Xu Youle and Zheng Qian were both curious about how Lin Fei had suddenly become so successful.

Since Lin Fei didn't say, they were too embarrassed to ask.

Moreover, now that Lin Fei had become their boss, they were even less inclined to pry into his private affairs.

After finishing their meal at the food stall, Lin Fei, Xu Youle, and Zheng Qian prepared to head home.

"My car only seats two. Old Xu, would you mind taking a taxi back? I'll drop Zheng Qian off."

The Ferrari was certainly stylish, but it had too few seats—only two.

Such luxury cars weren't meant for hauling people; they were meant for the wealthy to show off and pick up women.

Lin Fei thought to himself that he would need to buy another car.

Otherwise, if his parents came to visit, there wouldn't be anywhere for them to sit.

Zheng Qian quickly said, "No need, I live quite close to here. I'll just take a taxi back."

Xu Youle didn't stand on ceremony at all and sat directly in the passenger seat.

"Then I won't be polite. Boss Lin, hurry up and let me experience the speed and passion of a Ferrari!"

Lin Fei shook his head with a smile and could only give Zheng Qian an apologetic look.

"Zheng Qian, we'll be heading off then."

"Oh, Lin Fei, I forgot to ask, where should we report to you tomorrow?"

"No need to report anywhere. I'll contact you via phone when there's work to be done. Tomorrow, I'll advance you both a month's salary, and we'll discuss the rest later."

Lin Fei paid them in advance to ensure Zheng Qian and Xu Youle would work for him with peace of mind.

After all, as their boss, he didn't even have an office, so he could disappear at any moment.

Vroom!

The Ferrari's engine roared, and it transformed into a silver shadow as it sped away.

Xu Youle was incredibly excited; every time they stopped at a red light, he would whistle and wink at the passing beauties.

Whether it was the boy's charm or the Ferrari's, some women actually approached them to chat, left their contact information, and even enthusiastically invited Lin Fei and Xu Youle to go to a bar.

Lin Fei dropped Xu Youle off at his home, but Xu Youle still looked like he hadn't had enough, wishing he could take a few more laps.

"Old Xu, when I'm not using the car, you can drive it."

"Hahaha, thanks, Boss!"

Afterward, Lin Fei drove back to his rented apartment.

He summoned the space gate and returned to Nanli City.

At this moment, it was still daytime in Nanli City.

Lin Fei walked out of the bedroom.

The guards and maids in the courtyard were already accustomed to him staying behind closed doors for over ten days, assuming he was in cultivation.

He took a carriage to the small residence in the East City to visit Peach Blossom, and while he was at it, he gave her the other watch that came with the Ferrari.

Items like watches were absolute rarities in Nanli City.

Lin Fei told Peach Blossom that it was a magical artifact that could record time, and she should keep it to play with.

Peach Blossom was quite fond of this novel object.

Lin Fei stayed in the city to accompany her for many days, watching her belly grow rounder, and felt great anticipation for the birth of their child.

Lin Fei had even chosen names for the baby: Lin Ping for a boy, and Lin An for a girl.

Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, as a father, he only hoped they would be safe and sound.

Peach Blossom liked these two names very much as well.

Before dawn broke on Earth, Lin Fei returned.

In this back-and-forth, only one night had passed on Earth, but over ten days had already passed in Nanli City.

"The time flow between Earth and Nanli City differs by a hundredfold; one day on Earth is over three months in Nanli City."

"After today passes, Peach Blossom should be close to labor. Once I finish my business today, I must hurry back to be with her."

Lin Fei had calculated the dates back in Nanli City; he had to return before the child was born.

He took out the notebook he used for work and drew up a project plan.

Then, he pulled Xu Youle and Zheng Qian into a newly created three-person work group and sent the plan into the chat.

"You have three things to handle today. First, contact a large warehouse and rent it for one year."

"Second, I am moving today. Help me contact a moving company—it must be professional—and have them come to my place."

"Third, since today is our first day of work, I'll give you each a big red envelope to celebrate the start. You two go celebrate yourselves; I have things to attend to, so I won't be joining you."

Xu Youle replied in the group almost immediately.

"Thank you, Boss!"

Zheng Qian followed up right after.

"Good morning, Boss!"

Lin Fei transferred one thousand yuan to each of them with the note "Best of luck with the opening."

Immediately after, Lin Fei transferred another fifteen thousand yuan to each of them, noting it as "Salary."

Xu Youle sent a voice message to the group.

"Lin Fei, are you for real? You're actually paying triple salary!"

Zheng Qian also sent a voice message.

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

Lin Fei replied, "Only with more money will you have the motivation to work. At your previous jobs, it was base salary plus commission, and sometimes it was even more than this."

"I'm giving you triple salary, but that's just triple the base. When the New Year comes, as long as you perform well, I'll provide year-end bonuses. Just work hard!"

Xu Youle shouted immediately, "Long live the Boss! I'm heading out right now to find that warehouse!"

Zheng Qian hurriedly said, "Then I'll contact the moving company. My own lease is about to expire, so I was planning to move anyway."

Not long after, news came from Zheng Qian.

She had contacted three moving companies: one large professional firm, one small company, and one individual moving crew.

Lin Fei chose the large professional firm directly and paid extra to have them come over today.

With those boxes filled with gold, silver, and jewelry, Lin Fei simply couldn't trust a small moving company, let alone an individual crew.

Once the employees from the professional moving company arrived, they demonstrated their professional standards.

They wore uniform work clothes and brought plenty of packing boxes, sealing every item inside to prevent anyone from pilfering anything.

Lin Fei and Zheng Qian watched them the entire time, overseeing the transfer of all the boxes to the apartment in the high-end residential complex.

To avoid raising suspicion, Lin Fei also moved many of the furniture pieces and appliances he had purchased himself.

The rent for this apartment was not cheap, and Lin Fei didn't want to let the landlord benefit for nothing.

"Zheng Qian, I've paid a year's rent for this place. Since it's sitting empty, why don't you move in?"

"Once they finish moving my things, have them go over and move yours."
