Hang City, Wangu Mansion.

On this day, a graceful woman walked out of the Wangu Mansion. She was in her thirties, wearing a water green dress. The design of the dress had a strong Huaxia classical style, giving the woman the charm of an ancient noble lady.

Although her appearance wasn't particularly stunning, her temperament was very attractive, with the aura of a well-read intellectual.

Indeed, she was a talented woman, Wu Yili, an architect currently employed at Jiangnan Architectural Design Institute. She was born into the Jiangnan Wu Clan, a prestigious family, and was known as a talented woman from a young age. She studied abroad in Britain, which helped her grow into a first-class architect.

However, despite her excellent temperament, she seemed to be in a bad mood at the moment.

She had just met with Wei Tiansheng, the president of the Wangu Group. Wei Tiansheng had invited her to be an architect because the Wangu Group planned to build a headquarters tower in Yun City.

Initially, Wu Yili didn't want to meet Wei Tiansheng because she had already agreed with Song Rongmao to visit Lin Fan in Yun City today.

But Wei Tiansheng somehow managed to involve Wu Yili's father, forcing her to obey her father's wishes. She met with Wei Tiansheng and agreed to help design the tower, as per her father's orders.

As a result, she had to decline Lin Fan.

Even Lin Fan didn't know that it wasn't Song Rongmao who wanted to introduce Wu Yili to him; instead, Wu Yili had actively approached Song Rongmao, asking for the introduction because she wanted to work with Lin Fan.

After Lin Fan purchased the Lijiang Land for the sky-high price of 10 billion, he announced a plan to invest 20 billion in constructing a headquarters building and sent out a recruitment notice, seeking architectural talent from around the world.

In no time, countless people were eager to participate. This super project was not only profitable but was mainl y a chance to realize many people's ambitions and dreams.

Wu Yili was one of those people.

She wanted to join this project to prove herself.

But she didn't know Lin Fan and worried he wouldn't be interested in her. So, she thought of asking Song Rongmao to make an introduction to increase her chances of success.

Wu Yili took out her phone and saw two missed calls from the same number. She had already saved this number; it was a call from the Mortal Group!

Apparently, the Mortal Group was trying to contact her. Last night, Song Rongmao had already informed her she could meet Lin Fan today.

Originally, Wu Yili was very excited and looking forward to the meeting today, but she ended up seeing Wei Tiansheng instead.

If the Mortal Group hadn't called her proactively, Wu Yili would have given up, but seeing those two missed calls unsettled her.

Struggling to control herself, Wu Yili returned to her car, ready to head home.

The phone lay beside her, and Wu Yili couldn't help but glance at it. The two missed calls were still displaying. Wu Yili bit her lip, seeming to wrestle with her inner thoughts.

Wangu Group.

Wei Jiansheng opened the door to the chairman's office and walked in.

"Father, I have seen Miss Wu off," said Wei Jiansheng.

Wei Tiansheng smiled, "Good. Miss Wu has become our architect. There's no need to announce it for now. I want to give Lin Fan a big shock!"

Wei Jiansheng laughed, "Your foresight is impressive, Father. Lin Fan would never dream that we've poached his architect."

Wei Tiansheng sneered, "I said it before, as long as my family stands, Lin Fan won't have an easy time. Whatever he wants to do, he has to get through me first!"

Wei Jiansheng said, "Now I only have one worry. I'm not sure if Miss Wu might change her mind. I observed her just now; she seemed to have some issues."

Wei Tiansheng said, "No problem. Miss Wu is known for her filial piety. Since her father asked her to help us, she won't refuse, especially when her family's interests are involved. Unless she chooses Lin Fan over her own family's interests. As far as I know, she hasn't even met Lin Fan. Her choice is obvious."

Upon hearing this, Wei Jiansheng felt reassured and said, "Great!"

Wei Tiansheng was quite pleased, "It turns out that placing your aunt by Lin Fan's side is quite useful. She's the one who tipped me off this time."

Wei Jiansheng said, "But if Auntie learns that we've hired Miss Wu, won't she become suspicious?"

Wei Tiansheng said, "No worries. I'll explain it to her. She trusts me a lot now, and she even thinks I support her in pursuing Lin Fan!"

Wei Jiansheng laughed, "Lin Fan making enemies with our family was the worst mistake of his life. I can't wait to see him humiliated."

However...

At this moment, while driving, Wu Yili approached a fork in the road. The right path led home, while the left headed towards Yun City.

Just as she was about to drive home, Wu Yili suddenly clenched her teeth, as if making a decision, and abruptly turned the steering wheel towards the road leading to Yun City.

Mortal Group Headquarters.

That afternoon, Lin Fan was in the conference room, attending a meeting with the company's executives.

Secretary Zhao Jiayi suddenly knocked and entered the room, whispering to Lin Fan, "Miss Wu is here."

Lin Fan was pleasantly surprised and said, "I understand. Everyone, let's adjourn the meeting for now. I have an interview."

Upon leaving the meeting room with Zhao Jiayi, Lin Fan asked, "Where is Miss Wu?"

Zhao Jiayi replied, "I've taken her to the chairman's office. Sister Yue'er is hosting her."

"Good," Lin Fan nodded and headed directly towards his office.

In Lin Fan's office, Wei Yue'er was talking with a woman wearing a water green dress.

"You must be Miss Wu. Hello, I'm Lin Fan," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Seeing Lin Fan, Wu Yili quickly stood up, her cheeks turning red, and said, "Mr. Lin."

Lin Fan walked over to shake her hand, "Thank you for coming, Miss Wu. Please, have a seat."

Wu Yili felt a warmth in her heart. She found Lin Fan to be so gentle, and he was so young and handsome, exuding an overwhelming masculine charm. Wu Yili felt her heart flutter.

Ah, upon first meeting, she seemed to have already fallen for him.

Wei Tiansheng probably never imagined that he had underestimated Lin Fan's personal charm.

Wei Yue'er stood up and said, "Miss Wu, I'll step out for now so you can talk with President Lin."

Wei Yue'er then left the office, closing the door behind her.

Now only Lin Fan and Wu Yili were left in the office.

"Miss Wu, have you had a busy day? I heard from Jiayi that she called you twice, but there was no answer. I almost thought you weren't coming," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Indeed, not being able to reach Wu Yili in the morning, Lin Fan almost thought she wasn't coming, but fortunately, Wu Yili later returned the call. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Wu Yili's cheeks turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed. For a moment, she hesitated whether to tell Lin Fan about her visit to the Wangu Group.
