***************

Though Fu Yu Sheng had something to say about his wife going to meet a pretty boy, he didn't stop her as he knew that she was going to meet Lin Bolin because of her work.

However, he did want to follow her but as he received a call from Assistant Xi who asked him to come to the company, Fu Yu Sheng had no choice but to go to the office building. Apparently, the newly appointed secretary who was sent to his office by the Tang family was coming to the office today.

Because he needed to see for himself whether or not the woman was up to the mark, Fu Yu Sheng needed to go to the office.

"Boss Fu, you should stop frowning like this," Assistant Xi said to Fu Yu Sheng when he saw that the man was sitting on the chair with an annoyed frown on his face, he couldn't help but suggest Fu Yu Sheng look a tad bit more friendly. "If you keep frowning like this then you will scare away the new secretary."

"I heard that this new secretary is really skilled and many companies want to hire them. If they get angry with your attitude, what will we do?" Assistant Xi couldn't help but say.

"This secretary is coming here to do a job that they chose and picked up, do you think that I should greet them with a big smile on my face?" Fu Yu Sheng glanced at Assistant Xi before saying, "Does it matter whether or not I show them a friendly attitude?"

Assistant Xi stared at his boss and wanted to say something but a second later there was a knock on the door. The two of them swallowed their words as Assistant Xi walked over to the door and then pulled it open.

"Good morning," a woman dressed in a professional black suit, with her long hair tied in her bun and a pair of glasses settled on the bridge of her nose, greeted Assistant Xi.

Her voice was polite but the woman had no expression on her face. She pushed the glasses over her nose and then said to Assistant Xi, "I am here for the joining, I have cleared the last stage of the interview." As she said those words, the woman took out the appointment letter that she brought with her and showed it to Assistant Xi.

Assistant Xi took the letter and carefully read it, once he was certain that there was nothing amiss. He nodded and stepped aside before letting the woman inside the office.

Fu Yu Sheng raised his head and looked at the woman who entered the office. His brows scrunched up as he looked at the woman, he expected to see a man and not a woman after all.

"Good morning, CEO Fu." The woman bowed her head as she placed the referrals and appointment letters including the rewards and recommendations that she had won after working in several companies. "My name is Dong Hai."

Ba thump.

Fu Yu Sheng felt his heart skip a beat as he heard her name.

"What did you say? Whats your name?" Fu Yu Sheng raised his head and looked at the woman. The name brought a terror and sense of loss in his heart. Along with it came a surge of anger, if not for the fact that his rationality was still there, he would have rushed forward and killed the woman in front of him.

It was that kind of anger.

But why?

"Dong Hai, my name is Dong Hai," the woman repeated before tilting her head to the side and questioning, "Is something the matter?"

'Why..why can you not love me instead?' A harsh voice with a tinge of maniacal laughter echoed in Fu Yu Sheng's head. 'I have loved you more! I have been with you for so many years that she cannot even amount to it. So why her?' A woman wearing red robes screamed at him.

However, his memory was blurry and he couldn't see the face of the woman. The only thing he could see was that the woman and he were standing at the peak of a mountain.

But he had never been to that mountain.

"Argh," Fu Yu Sheng clasped hold of his head as he looked down at the floor.

"Are you alright, Boss Fu?" Assistant Xi rushed to Fu Yu Sheng's side he looked at Fu Yu Sheng and turned to look at Dong Hai who calmly stared at him.

He did not understand what happened just now. Was this the boss's way of telling the woman to leave?

Did her presence make Fu Yu Sheng feel uncomfortable?

"Is everything alright?" The woman asked with a hint of confusion in her eyes. "Shall I come back later on?"

"That..."

"Its fine," Fu Yu Sheng rubbed his forehead while gritting his teeth. He raised his head and smiled at the woman, "It was nothing but a bad headache, you can start working from today onwards. Your office is next to Assistant Xi, so you can stay there."

Dong Hai nodded as Assistant Xi glanced at Fu Yu Sheng. He wanted to say something but upon seeing that Fu Yu Sheng had agreed to let the woman stay, he did not say anything and brought her out of the office.

Once the two of them left, Fu Yu Sheng clenched his fingers tightly.

'I seem to have heard of her name somewhere but I cannot remember her...' he thought while rubbing his forehead.

However, what made him even more surprised was that even though the woman's name seemed to bring out a reaction from him...he did not recall seeing her.

*****

On the other side, Song Yan arrived at the small apartment where Lin Bolin lived. Her eyes fell on the dingy and dark alley where the man lived and her eyes narrowed. For someone who was accepted by Zheng Baozhi, Lin Bolin seemed to be living in a rather peculiar place.

She climbed up the metal stairs and then walked over to the corridor which led to the room that had Lin Bolin's name written on the surface of the door. Song Yan glanced at the nameplate which was faded and old before raising her hand and knocking on the door.

"Coming," a voice came from inside the room.

With a click the door opened and the face of an old woman came in front of Song Yan.

The old woman was stumped upon seeing a beautiful woman standing outside her apartment. Her old face scrunched up as she looked at Song Yan and tentatively asked, "How can I help

you, Miss?"

"Is Mister Lin Bolin at home?" Song Yan asked the old woman with a small smile on her lips. "There is something that I want to ask him. It is a rather important matter."

"Important matter?" The old woman blinked her eyes and Song Yan's smile widened. "You can think it concerns the life and death of your son."

As she said those words, Song Yan's gaze flicked to the children's palace on the forehead of the Old woman. Though she was blessed with a filial pair of sons, one of them was already dead and the other one was also in a life-threatening danger.

When the old woman heard Song Yan's words, she wanted to tell the woman to not say any nonsense but then she heard Song Yan say--

"You lost your elder son when you were in your twenties and then had your second son in your thirties. Because of this you have always treated Lin Bolin really well and have protected him from all harm. Unless you want to lose your son, I suggest you listen to what I have to say."

When the old woman heard Song Yan's words, she was stumped. Because as far as she knew, even her son did not know that he had an elder brother as Old Madam Lin did not tell Lin Bolin that he lost a brother.

It brought back bad memories and thus she even put away everything that was related to her eldest son in a small box and never brought it out.

Thus, it came as a surprise to the Old woman that Song Yan knew that her son was dead.

"How...how do you know that?" The old woman asked Song Yan with a frown on her face and Song Yan calmly smiled at the woman before explaining, "Your children's palace is falling. If you ignore what I have to say today then you will end up losing even your second son as the first pillar has already fallen and the second pillar is crumbling."

When Old Madam Lin heard Song Yan's words, she understood that the woman was a

renowned and powerful master. She shivered and immediately stepped to the side, "Please

come inside, master. I will bring my foolish son."

Old Madam Lin cared for her son more than anything. She couldn't help but get angry when

she thought that he was in danger.

'What trouble did he provoke this time!'
