Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Xu Ke pondered for a long time but came away empty-handed.

He had tried to contact the United States, but the response from the branch left him very disappointed.

The branch said they hadn’t ventured into that area, so they weren’t familiar with it at all.

Moreover, because of the special circumstances in the U.S., they couldn’t send people to investigate freely, as it might cause unnecessary trouble.

Xu Ke definitely didn’t want the branch to get into trouble, so he temporarily shelved the matter.

Overall, things went smoothly today, except for encountering this hacker,

but by the end of the workday, Wang Huan and Zhao Lei still hadn’t made any progress. They hadn’t managed to breach the firewall.

However, the Big Soldier told them not to rush as they were newcomers, and having such results was already impressive.

The first step is always the hardest. Once they surpass this hurdle, things will become easier.

Xu Ke originally planned to go straight home, but thinking of Xiao Keyi and Dongfang Yanran at home, he decided against it.

Even though he had agreed with Xiao Keyi, Xu Ke didn’t feel like dealing with it now.

He didn’t want to involve Dongfang Yanran until the company affairs were settled.

After all, he had to be responsible to the others. He couldn’t rest until the company’s matters were resolved.

So he just stayed at the office; it wasn’t the first time anyway.

After work, the Big Soldier suddenly received a call from Liu Yan.

As soon as the call connected, Liu Yan excitedly shouted, "Big Soldier, my parents have agreed! I’ll arrive in the capital tomorrow morning. You need to pick me up at the airport; I don’t know my way around the capital."

The Big Soldier was slightly stunned, surprised Liu Yan had convinced his parents so quickly.

He knew Liu Yan’s parents were quite stubborn and generally wouldn’t allow their daughter to travel so far.

Maybe they realized Liu Yan was coming for a job at a listed company and didn’t want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so they let him come.

"Alright, I’ll definitely pick you up tomorrow morning. But make sure to bring your things; it’ll be a hassle to buy them afterward."

After exchanging a few words with Liu Yan, the Big Soldier hung up the phone.

Now that things were settled with Liu Yan, he had to make the most of his time.

About ten people had agreed, so he needed to quickly find the remaining ten within the next few days.

At night, Xu Ke was about to go to bed when he suddenly received a call from Xiao Keyi.

"Keyi, why are you calling me so late? What’s up?"

Upon hearing Xu Ke’s voice, Xiao Keyi was a bit surprised.

He clearly remembered Xu Ke promising to come home recently, no matter what.

But it was already past midnight, and Xu Ke still hadn’t returned, so Xiao Keyi called to ask.

"Do you even know what time it is now? Why do you think I’m calling? Do you remember your promise? Are you really trying to drive me crazy?"

Recently, Xu Ke had barely been home, knowing he was busy with work. Still, Xiao Keyi felt uncomfortable.

No matter how busy work is, he should make time to come home, or else she’d be waiting alone in an empty house every day.

Xiao Keyi’s words suddenly reminded Xu Ke of his promise.

But today, he really didn’t want to deal with Xu Ke, so he stayed at the company.

However, it made things tricky; how should he explain it to Xiao Keyi?

"Keyi, listen to me. I didn’t mean for this to happen, but I suddenly had to work overtime, and there’s a crucial plan I need to revise by 2 AM. Otherwise, we might lose the deal. Do you know how important this deal is for the company?"

At this point, Xu Ke could only bluff his way through.

Otherwise, when he finally goes home, he’ll face endless harassment from two women.

Once Xiao Keyi tells her mother, he won’t have any peace.

After listening to Xu Ke’s explanation, Xiao Keyi’s anger dissipated a lot, assuming Xu Ke was indeed working overtime.

Since Xu Ke was working overtime, she couldn’t say much more.

She was afraid if she kept talking, Xu Ke would find her annoying.

"Alright, if that’s the case, then take your time with the overtime, but take care of yourself and don’t overwork."

Xu Ke passed the situation easily, even he couldn’t believe it went so smoothly.

Though he didn’t lie to Xiao Keyi; he was planning to lie in bed and handle some company matters he couldn’t finish during the day.

The next morning, the Big Soldier got up early and, according to the agreed time, quickly arrived at the airport.

With only 15 minutes left before Liu Yan’s arrival, he nervously paced back and forth.

Truth be told, it was his first time meeting Liu Yang, and neither had ever seen each other.

After collaborating so many times, he was both nervous and excited.

He wondered if his appearance would disappoint Liu Yan and what Liu Yan might think of him.

Even though they were just friends, their bond was very strong.

They had been in business for years and shared much with each other.

As the plane landed, a fashionable woman with a suitcase casually walked out of the airport hall.

The Big Soldier’s eyes weren’t on her because he thought a homebody girl wouldn’t dress fashionably; such a woman should be a professional.

Yet, unexpectedly, the fashionable woman walked directly toward the Big Soldier, confusing him.

"Miss, I don’t think I know you. Are you sure you’re looking for the right person?" the Big Soldier politely asked.

"No, I’m not mistaken. Big Soldier, I’m Liu Yan. Don’t you recognize me?"

After hearing her voice, the Big Soldier realized it was indeed Liu Yan. They had only talked via voice, without video, so he didn’t recognize her.

Seeing the beautiful woman before him, the Big Soldier was suddenly extremely nervous.
