Was she still scared of him?

When it was time to leave, Zhang Lui walked Evelyn to the door. On their way, they overheard a conversation

"Don't worry, she might not necessarily know how to handle a huge organization like this" Evelyn heard an unfamiliar voice say

She could not identify who it was, But the person was right, For her to eliminate all stumble blocks the one thing she has to improve is her business mind, It was her weakness but she will destroy the weakness lest the organization falls in her hands

She heard another person snort," She just has a glib tongue with no experience"

This time she was familiar with this person's voice, it was none other than Wen Wangji

"Yes exactly, If it doesn't work out we could just create chaos in the laboratory, After all, accidents happen in the lab," the other voice said sinisterly

Wen Wangji chuckled, "H-haha you're right"

Sensing the conversation slowly coming to an end, Evelyn gestured toward Zhang Lui for them to leave.

A car was packed at the front, Zhang Liu could not help but say "Dont worry, I'll make sure to keep a tight watch on the Laboratory"

Evelyn nodded, "Please do, Also keep a watch on Wen Wangji"

"Okay president"

Evelyn boarded the car back to the mansion. Upon reaching there, She met with Amelia. Evelyn approached, Amelia stood awkwardly not knowing how to comfort her friend as they were not used to such.

Evelyn gave a light smile, "It's Okay, Come on let go in, I have a favour to ask you"

As they entered the house, They were welcomed by the Nanny who informed them of their meal.

Both rejected, One having to have eaten, and the other not feeling hungry

The Nanny nodded, "Okay I'll reheat it later so you can have it"

"Okay Thank you"

Amelia lay down on the couch holding her phone, She scrolled through the articles on her phone. Multiple headlines regarding Flourish and Prosper were seen. Amelia read them through one by one

#The death of President Cole, Is There a story behind it?

A well-known gossip magazine, "WhisperWaves" posted

#Change in power? The adopted daughter of the former CEO of Flourish a Prosper is in charge!

Amelia saw another article from another popular gossip magazine, "StarBuzz"

More articles appeared every minute that passed by

#New CEO Evelyn Cole, What was the vice president's reaction?

Amelia found that article particularly eye-catching, She tapped it and went through it, She realised all were just saying the same thing and the title was just for clout, So she tapped the comment section and was fuming after reading a few netizen's comments

Stardustchaser: "What with rich people these days, I'll wait for the #falloffllourishandprosper"

Gossipguru88: "I'm not one who usually comments on stuff like this, But this is not a wise idea "-"

Trendtracker77: Eh? The person upstairs is right, damn I'm literally the same age as the new president #Florishandprosperdownfall

RumorRider: Recipe for disaster I'll say ;)

Amelia straight away flared up, "Are these people dumb"

Evelyn glanced over at the phone and saw the article, She gave a light chuckle, "Don't look anymore, you'll fill up your jar of anger, Netizen's words can be hurtful, but they do have a point, Which brings me to the favour I wanted to ask, Zetian runs a company, though on different field but it better, I can freely gain a few experiences without worrying about being rivals. Could you help me relate it, it would be much easier as you stay at the Ze's household"

Amelia exclaimed, "Ahh just that, when you said you wanted to ask for a favour I was scared it would be about money"

"-" Evelyn was speechless

"Hey come on! Don't look at me like that, my mom stopped giving me allowance"

Evelyn chuckled and mocked, "Ahh so the glamorous heir is penniless"

Amelia snorted, "Whatever"

She was secretly relieved to see Evelyn chuckle and mock her, thankfully she didn't take the death so hard on herself, She knew her friend would have so many responsibilities on her shoulders now, And all she could do was provide the utmost support. So of course she's more than willing to get Zetian to help even though she and him don't get along quite well, But she was sure he will help Evelyn in accordance of them being classmates for years

Amelia kept Evelyn company for a few hours before she remembered that she had to follow Zetian to pick up Mr Ze. She only found out today that Zetian still had a good heart. After seeing the various tabloids, he suggests she leave halfway. Even though he didn't outright say it, Amelia could still see his good intentions.

"I need to go now, I'll tell Zetian on the way"

Evelyn said her thanks and Amelia quickly rushed out of the house. The Nanny approached Evelyn and reminded her of her meal and Evelyn nodded.

….

Upon leaving the house, She saw a black Mazda parked across the mansion, The window rolled down and she saw a familiar figure. She Cheekily skipped over

Zetian couldn't help but sigh, "You're going to be 23 this year you know that right?! You're already a granny and you refuse to realise"

Amelia ignored him, She opened the car door and shooed him to the other side then sat down. She looked around but couldn't find Qiao Qiao anywhere "Where is Qiao Qiao? "

"I dropped her off, She wants to study and doesnt want distractions"

"Ohh" Amelia nodded in agreement

Zetian gestured for the driver to start the car. Halfway there, She remembered something

"Ahh by the way Zetian, I have something to tell you and you're not allowed to reject do you hear me!" Amelia commanded trying to put a serious front

Zetian glanced at her serious expression and couldn't help but chuckle, "Dont puff off your face like that, You look like a tofu"

"Damn shut up, Stupid thug!" Amelia yelled in fury, "Now listen to me, You're going to help Evelyn"

Zetian anticipated what she was going to say, After all, Aside from Han Jiang and him, his class didn't study business. He did not mind helping as another person would not hurt much, He also needed someone who would keep Amelia in check and Evelyn was perfect for the job.

…

They arrived at the airport in no time, the flight had already landed. Amelia looked around in search of the familiar figure.

A moment later, a tall straight man walked towards them, He emitted a royal demeanour. His face was a carbon copy of Zetian's and their temperament was similar.

"Welcome back Mr Ze" Amelia greeted

Ze Ming shot Amelia a disapproving look, "I thought we've been over that" he intended to make it sound like a playful reprimanding but considering his stoic look and expression, Amelia was scared out of her wits. She straightaway corrected herself while stammering "Ah-H-haha S-sorry U-uncle"

Ze Ming was speechless, Was she still scared of him? It has been like that for a long time and his wife always tells him to be more playful while talking which he tried but she still looks scared

Ze Ming glanced at his son, Zetian nodded at his dad and they walked to the car.

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief and then followed behind.

The drive back home was silent until Ze Ming spoke up, "I heard you're learning from my son?"

He didn't specify but Amelia knew he was talking to her, Just when she managed to calm her nervous heart.

"Y-yes Uncle"

"Alright, I shall be available for the next 2 days, I'll be visiting the Ze Corporation before leaving. Come and learn from me"

Amelia was stupified, Come and learn from me?!!

She can't possibly do that, can't she?

She knew his achievements from the years so far and it was not something someone like her could achieve

Amelia glanced at Zetian and he also looked back, "It's a good idea" he said

Good idea, my foot!!! Are these two just trying to make her life miserable?

If Mr Ze knew what Amelia was thinking about he would have been stunned speechless.

They finally reach the Ze household, The massive gate opened. No matter how many times she sees it, Amelia is always in awe, especially at the Lions.

As they drove the car into the Ze park, It took a few minutes to finally reach there.

Qiao Qiao immediately rushed out of the house, She pounced on Ze Ming, "Uncle!"

His expression softened as he caught her and raised her," How is my Qiao Qiao?"

Qiao Qiao immediately giggled, "Qiao Qiao has been very well-behaved. Uncle, did you get me anything?"

Ze Ming nodded, "Surely i will, let go inside. It's a little chilly lest you catch a cold"

Amelia watched enviously and muttered, "If only my mom was this considerate"

Zetian who was in a good mood for god knows why, Imitated the same tone his father used earlier, "Let's go inside, it's a little chilly lest you catch a cold" As he said that he effortlessly picked up Amelia.

Amelia was stunned beyond words, "Y-you, what's wrong with you today? Let me down! You stupid thug!" Her face was crimson as she nervously tried to free herself. This was the first time they've been this close.

Zetian grinned in amusement, He didn't know teasing her was this fun," I suggest you stop struggling if not I won't let you down, we would walk through that door in this manner"

Amelia immediately quieted down, Mr Ze was inside it would be embarrassing to be seen in this position

Seeing her being docile, he dropped her down. Amelia kicked him hard on his leg and rushed into the house.

It tickles, he thought with a silly smile on his face

Zetain then moved his long legs and went into the house
