Xiao Yufan knew that his birth date destined him with a purely Yin Ba Zi (Eight Characters), and the disadvantages of having such a purely Yin constitution had already been fully revealed.
In metaphysics, it is believed that those with a purely Yin disposition often face challenges in romantic relationships and tend to have extreme personalities. This had already been proven in Cheng Ying’s case, leaving Xiao Yufan puzzled—was everything really dictated by this purely Yin Ba Zi?
However, Xiao Yufan’s purely Yin Ba Zi was quite different from others’. As his master once said, this was a rare birth chart found in only one among thousands. This particular Yin constitution couldn’t be resolved through external means, for its disadvantages would naturally dissipate after the age of twenty-five.
Still, no one could predict whether turning twenty-five would bring fortune or misfortune, as blessings and calamities often come hand in hand. Perhaps the road ahead would become even more challenging.
“Although everything has its destined course, effort is still essential. Those with a purely Yin constitution are destined for an extraordinary life, so never treat yourself as an ordinary person!” These were the words his master left him with—words that perfectly reflected Xiao Yufan’s inner self.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yufan was wide awake, memories flashing through his mind. He couldn’t deny that many of the things he had experienced weren’t as simple as they seemed on the surface—like an intricate chain, each link tightly connected to the next.
He thought again about the golden card given to him by his master, a faint smile appearing on his lips. As he reflected on the people around him, he realized that his master was the most mysterious of all, and he could sense that the man was no ordinary individual.
…
The next day, Xiao Yufan returned to the company once again. Due to his impressive performance during the proposal presentation, he was directly promoted to team leader, and Lin Pingle received the same promotion.
What angered Xiao Yufan was how the gossip within the company grew worse, with rumors spreading that he and Yu Yihan had already become intimate.
If there had truly been any closeness between him and Yu Yihan, Xiao Yufan wouldn’t have been so upset. In reality, their relationship was merely that of boss and employee, landlord and tenant—nothing more. So where did these rumors of a romantic development come from?
But would anyone believe him if he said that? Naturally not. Sharing an apartment together and nothing happening—now that would be suspicious!
Xiao Yufan felt his head throbbing with frustration, and since Yu Yihan made no effort to clarify the situation, all the blame naturally fell upon him, the seemingly innocent party.
Whispers of him being a kept man or a gigolo spread throughout the company, leaving Xiao Yufan feeling deeply helpless. Indeed, public opinion could be terrifying. As for the mocking remarks from jealous individuals, he gradually learned to scoff at them indifferently.
…
“Goodness, are you really going to let these rumors keep spreading like this? It’s definitely not good for your reputation!”
In the top-floor office, Li Jie, a highly respected figure in the company, shook her head helplessly as she watched Yu Yihan remain completely calm. She prided herself on knowing people well, yet she couldn’t figure out what Yu Yihan was thinking.
“They can say whatever they want. What does it have to do with me? As long as it doesn’t affect work, it doesn’t matter,” Yu Yihan replied without even looking up, continuing to organize files on her computer.
“But they’re saying you’ve already gone that far with that employee of ours. Who knows, maybe you’ll have a child together any day now…” Li Jie hadn’t expected Yu Yihan to be so indifferent and quickly added more, but before she could finish, she sensed something was off and stopped herself.
This time, Yu Yihan finally looked up, her delicate face tinged with a faint blush. The beauty of this rare, feminine expression momentarily stunned Li Jie, who had never seen the icy CEO show such tenderness.
“Jie, I know you’re just looking out for me. I’ll handle this myself, don’t worry,” Yu Yihan said, not showing any anger. Instead, her voice softened slightly. Compared to her usual sharp and decisive self as a corporate leader, this change was quite remarkable.
Sighing, Li Jie wanted to say more, but her words turned into a long breath. How could she not see the deeper meaning behind this? But what could possibly connect a legendary woman like Yu Yihan with such an ordinary man?
After another sigh, Li Jie left the office. She had plenty of work to do and couldn’t stay long, leaving Yu Yihan completely alone in the top-floor office.
Watching Li Jie’s retreating figure, Yu Yihan fell into deep thought. She herself didn’t understand why she felt no repulsion toward these rumors and had gradually grown accustomed to her current lifestyle.
Originally, she had chosen to rent that shabby house outside the Fifth Ring Road on the advice of a wise person who told her that her benefactor would appear through this rental arrangement. Now, she was quite certain that if the wise person’s words were true, her benefactor must be Xiao Yufan.
Without Xiao Yufan’s quick thinking during the proposal presentation, the company might not have secured the contract. Moreover, within just two days, the talent Xiao Yufan displayed in program design and management astonished Yu Yihan. She couldn’t help but wonder how someone so capable could possibly be considered ordinary. Could Xiao Yufan actually be hiding his true abilities?
Perhaps even Yu Yihan herself wasn’t aware that ever since their first encounter, an indelible image of him had formed in her heart—one she was simply unwilling to admit.
