My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 201 - I am your boss!

The hall was dead silent, with only Yang Qi’s voice echoing through the space. The shock was palpable. Was this real? It felt like a dream. From ten meters away, he had shattered a Seventh-Level Stone Skin technique with a single move, crippling Song Yan. It was simply terrifying.

"The younger generation is truly fearsome," Liu Tie said with a wry smile. "We all underestimated him."

"Indeed. No wonder even the City Lord deigns to make his acquaintance. This man is genuinely formidable," Zhao San added with deep feeling. "Still, it’s better for Li Qingyan to go to the Qifei Group than the Kang City Commerce League."

"That’s true." The two men shared a smile and went their separate ways.

"To the Qifei Group!" Li Qingyan was decisive, agreeing on the spot.

Yang Qi smiled and left the Tian Nan Martial Arts Hall with her, heading for the Qifei Group.

In the car, he caught a glimpse of her exquisite face in the rearview mirror. In terms of beauty, she was on par with Lin Qingxuan. Her figure was just as stunning. However, they were two completely different styles. Li Qingyan was domineering and arrogant, yet efficient. Lin Qingxuan was gentle and intelligent, but equally precise and ruthless when it came to business. It was hard to say which of them was more outstanding.

"Am I beautiful?" Li Qingyan asked suddenly.

"Beautiful, but not as beautiful as my woman," Yang Qi replied.

"Your woman?" Li Qingyan was taken aback, a flicker of competitiveness rising in her.

"That’s right. Lin Qingxuan, the young miss of the Jingzhou Lin Family," Yang Qi stated.

"So you’re just another fool who gets a big head after gaining a little power," Li Qingyan scoffed. "Your martial skill might be decent, but it’s nothing compared to the Jingzhou Lin Family. You’re delusional if you think you can have Lin Qingxuan. I’m afraid you’d be dead long before you ever got to meet her."

"What’s a person without dreams but a salted fish?" Yang Qi laughed.

"That’s not a dream, you’re just daydreaming," Li Qingyan retorted sarcastically before falling silent. Any good impression she had of Yang Qi had completely vanished, replaced by disgust. It was like watching a toad drooling over a swan; she loathed people who didn’t know their own limits.

Yang Qi didn’t bother arguing with her. The car pulled up in front of the Qifei Group building.

Li Qingyan got out and tossed Yang Qi an Eagle Yuan—the currency of Eagle Country, worth more than a Dragon Coin. "Consider it payment for your trouble. You can go now," she said. "Rest assured, I will definitely check out the Qifei Group. But whether their executives are up to my standards remains to be seen. I don’t like working for idiots."

Yang Qi sneered. Such an arrogant woman. I’m curious to see just how capable she really is.

After Li Qingyan went inside, Yang Qi parked the car and called Ye Fei. "Arrange an interview for Li Qingyan. I’ll conduct it myself, but you’ll be the front. I don’t want to reveal my identity."

Yang Qi didn’t want people to know the Qifei Group was his, as it would shield the company from a lot of trouble.

"Okay, I’ll prepare right away," Ye Fei replied, equally surprised that Yang Qi had actually brought Li Qingyan back. Wasn’t she supposed to be incredibly difficult to handle? Most people couldn’t manage her, yet Yang Qi had succeeded. It was truly remarkable.

Soon, Yang Qi was in his office, watching the interview room on a large screen. Li Qingyan would be interviewed there shortly, and he would ask questions through an earpiece.

「In the interview room.」

Ye Fei, Lin Xiaofei, and Secretary Jin were present, but the three of them were merely a front. The real interviewer was Yang Qi, operating from behind the scenes.

Li Qingyan’s professional abilities were beyond question. She instantly left Ye Fei, Lin Xiaofei, and Secretary Jin completely convinced of her talents.

Yang Qi smiled, then began asking a series of sharp questions. They were all related to Li Qingyan’s profession, not personal trivialities. Every question cut straight to the heart of the matter, leaving Li Qingyan astonished.

Initially, Li Qingyan had lost interest in the Qifei Group. While the senior management was competent, they weren’t exceptional, and in her eyes, that meant little. But these questions stunned her. Even she couldn’t claim such a thorough understanding of her own field.

Of course, she had noticed Ye Fei’s earpiece and couldn’t help but smile. She knew the real person interviewing her was the boss behind the scenes. A true business genius, she thought. Working for a boss like this would be far more interesting than returning to Eagle Country. She had only come to go through the motions but was met with a pleasant surprise.

She decided to stay. Working for someone like this would allow her to use her abilities to their fullest potential. Moreover, the Qifei Group was just starting, giving her an opportunity to prove herself. The company she worked for before had started at such a high level that many people weren’t truly convinced of her capabilities.

Li Qingyan answered every one of Yang Qi’s questions, and her answers were excellent. This made Yang Qi set aside his prejudice. The woman might be arrogant, but her skills were the real deal. No wonder so many people were trying to recruit her. She was an absolute asset for the Qifei Group.

"Ye Fei, tell her she can complete the onboarding process," Yang Qi said with a laugh. "If she’s willing, we welcome her as the new general manager of the Qifei Group."

With that, he turned off the large screen and left.

Back in the interview room, Ye Fei announced the result. "If you have no other questions, Miss Li, you can begin the onboarding process immediately. You can start tomorrow," he said with a smile.

"Can I meet your boss?" Li Qingyan asked.

"Miss Li, you truly are perceptive to have figured that out," Ye Fei said. "Unfortunately, our boss is a rather shy person and prefers not to show his face. Perhaps there will be an opportunity in the future."

"Alright then." Li Qingyan’s interest in this mysterious boss only grew. Who is he? What kind of person acts so mysterious? She would never have guessed that the Yang Qi she looked down on was her future boss—the very same mystery man who had piqued her curiosity.

After completing the paperwork, Li Qingyan left. Coming here had been a complete accident, and she wasn’t prepared for any of it. Now, she would have to get to know the Qifei Group properly.

When she stepped outside, she was surprised to see Yang Qi still there.

"Are you waiting for me?" Li Qingyan asked, stunned. "Don’t get any ideas. You’re not my type."

I wasn’t waiting for you. You’re far too full of yourself, Yang Qi thought. I just came downstairs.

"Alright, you don’t need to explain," Li Qingyan said, cutting him off before he could speak. She shoved several Green Eagle Dollars into his hand. "This is for your trouble. I need you to make one more trip and take me to the Kang City Hotel."

In her eyes, Yang Qi was probably just a security guard or a bodyguard. He could fight, sure, but in this world, martial strength alone was not nearly enough.

"Get in," Yang Qi said, accepting the task. After all, she was the future general manager of his company.

He drove toward the Kang City Hotel. She hadn’t planned on a long stay in Kang City, which was why she was at a hotel. Now that she had a job, she would probably have to buy property in Kang City, or at the very least, rent an apartment. Staying in a hotel long-term was definitely not an option.
