Gu Lingsha was obviously unhappy that Xi Xiaye had pulled such a shady trick on her. These past two days, the staff from the Materials Department kept calling her to ask about the situation on the materials.

That evening, Gu Lingsha had finally finished organizing the piled up documents when Secretary Qin knocked to enter.

"Manager Gu, Manager Lee from the Materials Department called again to rush us. That batch of materials can only last till the day after tomorrow at most. If we still can't get the materials, then I'm afraid we'll have to put the work on hold. The people from the government might be coming soon for an inspection too. CEO Qi especially reminded us that we must show them our best selves," Secretary Qin reported in panic.

After she was defeated at Xi Xiaye's a few days ago, Gu Lingsha had been extremely upset. She had been asking around, but no one could provide such a huge amount of stock. In fact, it was also the rainy season on the southwest, hence the transporting of the materials itself would have been a problem. Otherwise, she would not have asked Hua Heng for the materials. She also would not have thought that Xi Xiaye would do something to it!

Gu Lingsha slammed the document hard onto the table, feeling frustrated. "Stop rushing me every few days. Tell them all to calm down. I'll resolve the whole materials problem soon."

"But Manager Gu..."

"Go! Stop being long-winded!"

Secretary Qin left, feeling a little terrified.

Gu Lingsha combed through her hair a little defeatedly. She thought about it for a long while, and then finally could not help but pick up her phone to make a call.

Yep, she was calling Qi Lei.

When he had a good look at who was calling, Qi Lei had just returned from City B and was on the way back to the Grand Lakes Villa area.

"Master Qi, it's a call from Manager Gu!" Because he thought that Qi Lei was too engrossed in the scenery outside the car window, Yang Sheng gave him a nudge.

Narrowing his eyes, Qi Lei turned over and picked up his phone before hanging up immediately and switching his phone off.

"Have dinner here tonight. We still have to arrange some of the materials. I've got a morning meeting tomorrow, and I don't want those people to find fault with me again," Qi Lei calmly said, ignoring the phone call.

Nodding, Yang Sheng silently set the documents aside and put them into his briefcase as he said, "Master Qi, VP Wang's Butler Xu from the Hai Tian Villa is quite good. His craftsmanship is quite skillful too. In fact, he was by VP Wang's side for many years. How about we get him to come over and take care of you? You forget to eat once you get too wrapped up in your work. Be careful not to overwork yourself," Yang Sheng said in concern as he glanced at Qi Lei for permission.

Upon hearing that, Qi Lei fell silent for a bit and finally nodded in agreement. "You've been recommending him to me quite a bit all the while. Since Butler Xu's quite good, get him to come over and bring a servant or two too. The house's too empty, and there are many things that require handling too."

Qi Lei was certainly relieved. He had not been willing to let others intrude into his personal space before this, yet over time, he had become more open, especially since his career was slowly picking up in recent times. Furthermore, he had been progressing well and was not as sluggish as before.

When he heard Qi Lei's response, Yang Sheng was surprised. He stared at Qi Lei in bewilderment as if he was looking at an alien.

Qi Lei responded to his shocked expression with a cold glare. "What expression is that? Is something wrong?"
