Background / History

Ye Mei personally receives Li Jinshui at the Delivery Youth Training Camp’s 51st-floor offices and conducts his initial assessment. Though outwardly welcoming, she tests his Blood Qi and lightness skill to scrutinize his actual ability before tentatively granting him a Grade-A rating and camp accommodation. 19 20

During Li Jinshui’s formal interview, she reviews his background and attempts to maintain order while he gives evasive and theatrical answers. She and Huang Lichen conclude that he may have histrionic personality disorder, but Ye Mei nevertheless finalizes his Grade-A status and presents the resource contract binding him to Flash Group Delivery after camp. 21 22

As Li causes conflicts among the trainees and becomes blacklisted by Weihu Security Company, Ye Mei repeatedly intervenes. She reprimands him for his conduct, has public relations smooth over his dispute with Yao Xiaona’s family, and warns him not to provoke Yao again. 24 26

Ye Mei later advocates investing in Li despite the danger and expense. Believing Weihu Security is using him as a pressure point against their faction, she proposes building him up as the means to overturn the company’s attack; Huang Lichen, Zhang Li, and Chen Yu ultimately support the plan. 28 33

Before Li leaves the camp for his station assignment, Ye Mei warns him that Weihu Security is using him as a pawn in a wider conflict and urges him to survive. She also explicitly rejects his advances, revealing that she is 31 years old and telling the 18-year-old Li that there is no future between them. 36

After the conflict with Weihu Security escalates, Ye Mei admits that she underestimated the opposition’s influence. She uses Li’s actions as an opening for her Imperial Envoy mentor to intervene in Daming Technology’s affairs, then receives a transfer to company headquarters. 49

Li later pressures Ye Mei into transferring him three million yuan in exchange for his silence and cooperation. Despite their strained dynamic, she remains one of his contacts after his breakthrough to the Thousand-Jun Realm, summoning him to meet her in Huayang District. 50 62

Personality

Ye Mei is composed, efficient, and sharply analytical. In professional settings, she avoids unnecessary pleasantries, prioritizes testing and evaluating talent, and keeps a controlled smile even when dealing with Li’s disruptive behavior. 19 20

Her cold, intimidating exterior conceals a capacity for concern. She repeatedly warns Li about Weihu Security, Yao Xiaona’s family, and the dangers awaiting him outside the camp; she also arranges protection for his transfer to a new station. 26 36 37

She is ambitious and politically decisive. Faced with the possibility of layoffs and Weihu Security’s pressure, she chooses to stake her future on Li’s potential rather than abandon him, viewing him as a weapon against their opponents. 28 33

Li’s persistent flattery can embarrass and unsettle her, but she consistently reasserts professional boundaries and rejects any romantic possibility between them. 25 26 36
