Ru Weimin's eyes flashed with a cold glint as he continued scanning the subsequent documents. Jun Zihao applied to their company many months ago. Because of his good qualifications and the recommendation handed down by his university, Jun Zihao was able to secure a favorable spot inside the company.

He is presently working in the creative department as a new employee without a distinct position. The process into which he entered was so ordinary nobody would think that he was the son of a very prestigious family.

Ru Weimin continued scanning the information, but none of it was absorbed into his mind. He was considering of other possible reasons this person had entered his company. Due to this family entanglement, Ru Weimin ignored the following piece of information that held Jun Zihao's recent hospitalization...

He had encountered different people. Despite his cold glare and frosting words, Ru Weimin knows he is quite popular with the masses. It was due to his excellent ruling that brought all the respect and loyalty to him. Aside from that, nobody can ignore his good looks. Both men and women wanted to occupy his bed just to earn the luxury.

Ru Weimin could identify if someone was scheming or not.

Most of the time, he was surrounded by people who wanted to cling to his golden thigh, while some looked at him with hate and envy. He didn't want to tire himself by dealing with these people, so he clearly expresses his displeasure.

He is only kind to those people whom he knows were loyal to him, merely regarding them "more human" than the background characters.

So this was the first time he regarded someone who could be considered a "background character."

San Zhao, the secretary, arrived at his usual time. He is carrying a coffee cup bought from some famous coffee shop chain with his suit hanging on his arms. He walked inside the room casually, heading towards his designated little office when he noticed the appearance of the person sitting on the CEO's chair.

Ru Weimin was already looking at his laptop with a solemn air. San Zhao wondered why this person seemed to be irritated first thing in the morning, so he approached him to ask the question.

Unknown to most people, San Zhao is Ru Weimin's distant cousin and a childhood friend. Their relationship was established when they were still young. San Zhao had no qualms about being the family heir, so he followed Ru Weimin to become useful.

He already grasped the potential of the man, so he did not think twice about following him. Ru Weimin also accepted him without question, and so San Zhao had become his most trusted aid.

Skeptically speaking, San Zhao had become someone who was capable to interpret Ru Weimin's emotions beneath the frosty mask. With just one look, he could tell if the other party was cheerful or feeling down.

Right now, all he can sense from Ru Weimin is an emotion of irratedness. He almost resembled a spoiled young master that was sulking because he had been unable to get the toy he wanted.

San Zhao stated, "You seem to be in a bad mood."

Ru Weimin only glanced at him once before looking back at his laptop. San Zhao took a sip of his coffee, still not letting go of the childish action.

"So what made your day bad?" He asked.

The other still did not answer. Instead, it started typing whatever it was right away. San Zhao recognizes his limits, so he did not delve deeper into whatever was causing Ru Weimin's foul mood. He walked back to his place when suddenly Ru Weimin's voice called out. He stopped in his tracks, turning around to confront the cold face of the gentleman.
