Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 198 - 191: A Narrow Encounter with an Old Foe

Bai Yiran’s teacher is surnamed Yao, thirty-six years old this year, comes from a well-off family, and married a wealthy husband. While in school, Teacher Yao particularly liked Bai Yiran, believing she was beautiful, performed well academically, and had a gentle personality.

Tired of her school job, she ventured into entrepreneurship with support from her husband and family, starting a company. During an overseas experience, she happened to meet Bai Yiran, who was also studying abroad, and invited her to work at her company out of her affection for her.

Bai Yiran gladly accepted; for her, this was a rare opportunity. Besides, Lou Jing was managing the café very well now, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to step in at this time.

The company was established on the 22nd floor of a newly completed office building in the city center, a large space, clearly reflecting Teacher Yao’s husband’s wealth.

Teacher Yao’s full name is Yao Zhiqing. She spoke with a naturally smiling disposition yet was meticulous and strict when it came to work.

With Yao Zhiqing’s guidance, Bai Yiran felt invigorated every day. After graduating such a long time ago, Bai Yiran finally found her place and the career she wanted to fight for.

Until this day, Bai Yiran arrived at the company early in the morning. The company was still in its nascent stage, and the pioneering path was long and grueling. Every morning, Yao Zhiqing would lead the employees in a morning meeting, and as her assistant, Bai Yiran would usually arrive very early to prepare for the meeting.

The receptionist, Xiao Zhang, saw Bai Yiran and greeted her with a smile, "Yiran, you’re here so early!"

Bai Yiran smiled back at Xiao Zhang, recalling how a few floors downstairs seemed to be under renovation when she came up earlier, she asked, "Is there a new company moving in downstairs?"

Xiao Zhang nodded mysteriously, "Yes, I specifically asked the security guard at the front gate this morning. They said it was a new company and the owner must be someone wealthy since they bought up everything from the 15th floor down to the 21st floor just below us. Who knows what kind of company they’re starting, but buying seven floors at once is something!"

"Hmm, that’s quite wealthy indeed." Bai Yiran stayed remarkably calm, compared to the mysterious owner buying seven floors for a company, Leng Yichen’s Huamei International owned an entire building.

Xiao Zhang noticed that Bai Yiran didn’t seem too excited, continuing, "You know, speaking of which, I happened to see the boss of the downstairs company this morning." Xiao Zhang paused, eyes gleaming, "He’s quite dashing, with the charm of a mature man. My heart skipped a beat instantly! But he looked a bit older, probably around President Yao’s age."

Seeing Xiao Zhang’s starry-eyed expression, Bai Yiran couldn’t help but laugh, "You can keep swooning. I’m going in to work—don’t let President Yao catch you, or you’ll be in trouble!"

Xiao Zhang stuck her tongue out at Bai Yiran, then calmly sat back at her desk, posing as a dignified and elegant receptionist.

At nine o’clock in the morning, the company’s meeting officially began. Bai Yiran distributed the materials to the attendees. Yao Zhiqing walked in from outside, and from the corner of her eye, Bai Yiran sensed that someone was following behind Yao Zhiqing.

Yao Zhiqing smiled at everyone, "Today, I’m introducing a new colleague, also a former student of mine, and indeed, our Assistant Bai’s younger sister. Everyone, welcome Bai Qianyu!"

Bai Yiran’s hand, as it distributed the materials, froze in shock, staring at Bai Qianyu standing at the front, sweetly smiling at everyone, as if a thousand horses ran through her mind!

Such a coincidence, she wondered if it was fate or if Bai Qianyu did it on purpose.

In any case, these two people were once again brought together.

Yao Zhiqing, misinterpreting Bai Yiran’s expression as joy at seeing Bai Qianyu, said, "Yiran, let Qianyu follow you from now on. You’re sisters, so it’s only natural you take her under your wing."

Bai Qianyu playfully linked her arm with Yao Zhiqing, "Thank you for this opportunity to work here, Teacher Yao, and for letting my sister personally guide me!" She turned to Bai Yiran, "Sis, I’ll be relying on you from now on!"

Feigning seriousness, while clearly indulging her student, Yao Zhiqing said, "In the company, you must call me President Yao, and refer to your sister as Assistant Bai. You can’t mix personal matters with business, understand?"

Bai Qianyu stuck her tongue out, "I understand, President Yao!"

Bai Yiran suppressed her anger, completed distributing the materials with a calm expression, and sat beside Yao Zhiqing. Yao Zhiqing gestured to the other seat beside her and said to Bai Qianyu, "Qianyu, you sit here."

Once seated, the eyes of the two sisters met for an instant.
