Early in the morning, Zhang Yang was still half-asleep when he felt an itch at the tip of his nose.
He opened his eyes. The sweet-looking girl was lying on his chest, smiling as she tickled his nose with a strand of hair.
"What are you looking at?" Zhang Yang was fully awake now.
"I'm checking to make sure no one's run off with you. Good, good." Bei Wei studied him carefully. "My Zhang-ge has come back in one piece."
Zhang Yang couldn't help feeling a little awkward as he got up. Suddenly, he felt a weight on his back.
"Carry me." Bei Wei looped her arms around his neck and whispered in his ear.
A little after seven, they finished washing up and took the Cullinan to Bei Tianfu's company.
Bei Tianfu's finances were limited, but he understood how important appearances were. He'd spent a great deal on the company's office in Magic City and had hired a good number of people to build out the team.
At the office, Bei Tianfu gave Zhang Yang a proper tour.
"Son-in-law, what do you think? My company looks respectable, doesn't it?" Bei Tianfu asked, sounding a little proud.
Zhang Yang glanced around at the spacious office and the tasteful decor left behind by the previous tenant, then offered a few polite compliments.
"Dad, you're showing off to the wrong person." Bei Jiajia looked embarrassed for her father.
Bei Tianfu gave an awkward laugh. "Old habits, old habits."
The franchise recruitment department was the top priority. Bei Tianfu had hired a team to handle online inquiries. Now was the perfect time to make a big push.
Time to cash in!
