So he thought she was easy to bully...

Wen Duoduo stared incredulously at Lu Jinyan, her almond-shaped eyes gradually filled with anger. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Lu Jinyan, you’re simply unreasonable. Just because I’m easy to bully, you can treat me like a soft persimmon, so you insist on hiring me, is that it?

Fine, if you insist on hiring me, then offer me a satisfactory salary! Let me say first, if I’m not satisfied with the salary, you can’t keep me!"

Wen Duoduo said indignantly, though she had already thought of another reason to reject him.

When Wen Duoduo suddenly suggested finding another assistant, Lu Jinyan was actually a bit flustered.

He couldn’t say why he was so insistent on keeping her, he just felt that interacting with her was easy and natural, she was interesting, and teasing her during work breaks was a kind of fun.

Of course, the most important thing was that he seemed to have gotten used to having her around. Occasionally going abroad together for performances, seeing her would ease his nerves a lot.

He couldn’t say why, but he instinctively wanted to keep her.

Now, she said a high salary would keep her, and Lu Jinyan, without even thinking, said: "Fine, I’ll give you double the salary, how about that?!"

"Double?"

Wen Duoduo coldly snorted, disdainfully saying, "Sorry, double the pay isn’t enough to cover my rent, social security, and basic living expenses!"

"Triple!"

"Not enough! I still need to save money to get married!"

"Then tell me, how much salary would make you stay as my assistant?" Lu Jinyan simply asked in return.

Wen Duoduo chuckled lightly, raising her hand to indicate a number, "At least this much!"

"Ten times the salary?"

Lu Jinyan furrowed his brows and thought for a moment, then said very straightforwardly, "Alright, I’ll give you ten times! Consider it a personal hire!"

Wen Duoduo originally thought that by asking for an exorbitant amount, she could scare Lu Jinyan away, but she didn’t expect he actually agreed?!

Ten times, that’s equivalent to ten months of her previous salary!

Has Lu Jinyan lost his mind?!

Wen Duoduo stared in disbelief at the man in front of her, seriously wondering if something was wrong with his brain?!

She widened her eyes at him, unable to snap back to reality for a long time.

Just then, Lu Jinyan’s phone rang, and he looked down to see it was his mother, Yan Xue, calling.

He gestured "shh" to Wen Duoduo and said, "Hello, Mom, is something up?"

Yan Xue’s gentle voice came slowly, "Good son, I’ve arranged for you to meet a nice girl today. Go see her later. Her parents are old friends of mine, so be sure not to offend them, alright?"

Lu Jinyan just thought he was hearing the biggest joke.

"Mom, are you mistaken? You want to introduce me to a blind date? Ha, isn’t this kind of thing usually left to Uncle? Why are you..."

"What nonsense are you speaking? Your uncle already has Miss Song, why would I introduce him to anyone else? But you, you don’t do anything serious all day, it’s time to settle down."

After a slight pause, Yan Xue continued, "This girl is from a musical family, and you must have common topics. When you get there, chat more, and maybe watch a movie or have a meal together."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinyan only felt a headache coming on.

But he knew his mother’s temper too well; if he directly said no, it would definitely upset her.

He looked up and saw Wen Duoduo in front of him, and suddenly a plan formed in his mind.

"Okay, I got it. Send me the time and place, and I’ll head over shortly." With that, Lu Jinyan hung up the phone.
