Guan Tang rolled her eyes at Ye Cheng playfully as she said, “What are you saying? Business is business, and friendship is friendship; they’re entirely separate matters. Don’t tell me you still need me to teach you this little bit of truth, Young Master Cheng?”

As Guan Tang spoke, she pressed her body against Ye Cheng’s body as she reached out to fiddle with the button on his shirt.

Ye Cheng retreated slightly from her body and asked with a smile, “What is it exactly you’re trying to say?”

Guan Tang understood completely in her heart. However, the smile on her face was still the same as she said, “If Zhuang Ji doesn’t have the embroidery manual, then Zhuang Ji will be without a soul. As far as I know, the embroidery manual hasn’t been used in Zhuang Ji.”

Guan Tang spoke carelessly, and her fingers were playing with the buttons on Ye Cheng’s shirt.

Ye Cheng gently held her hand and pulled her to the couch to sit down. He looked attentive as he asked, “What else do you know?”

Guan Tang looked at Ye Cheng with a hint of arrogance and did not sit next to him. Men were scoundrels. She could do no right at this moment; if she stuck close to him, he would find her unpleasant to the eyes, and if she retreated, he would complain as well.

Since Guan Tang knew Ye Cheng had already despised her in his heart, she knew she could no longer seduce him. Otherwise, he would only despise her more. Retreating to advance was the best choice now.

Guan Tang adjusted her sitting posture gracefully. From now on, she would focus on her career instead. She smiled and asked, “If you bring Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual and look for Mu Chen and Cheng Che, what do you think will happen?”

Ye Cheng looked at Guan Tang with a faint smile on his face. He thought it was really stupid once a woman put on an act. Despite his thought, he asked, “Darling, are you saying that you possess Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual?”

Guan Tang smiled faintly as well and said, “I don’t, but I know where it is. It should be very easy for you to obtain it. How about it? Are you interested?”

“Of course!” Ye Cheng looked at Guan Tang with a smile and expression that seemed to say he was only going along with her and that he did not think she had such an ability.

Guan Tang did not mind his attitude. “Then what benefits will I get after this is done?”

Ye Cheng rose to his feet and sat next to her before he asked with a smile, “What benefits do you want?”

Guan Tang narrowed her eyes and looked at the man next to her. She smiled charmingly and said, “I’m not greedy. I just want to live the rest of my life without worries...”

Ye Cheng replied with a smile, “Miss, there are many kinds of lives without worries. What kind do you want?”

“Of course, I want to live the high life,” Guan Tang replied without hesitation.

Ye Cheng shrugged. “Well, you deserve to live the high life.”

Guan Tang smiled.

Ye Cheng spread his arms and said, “The question is, Miss Guan, how do I get Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual? I have to obtain the embroidery manual first before I realize your dreams of living the high life...”

Guan Tang was quite satisfied with Ye Cheng’s response. She gestured for Ye Cheng to come closer.

Ye Cheng drew closer to her.

After Guan Tang whispered into Ye Cheng’s ear, he smiled, but his heart did not move at all. His tone turned solemn as he asked, “Are you sure the people you planted in Zhuang Ji are reliable?”

“Of course,” Guan Tang said confidently.

Ye Cheng frowned slightly. It was obvious he did not believe her completely.

Guan Tang was slightly anxious upon seeing this. She said, “You can ask your assistant to look into the matter. Right now, all the key figures of Zhuang Ji aren’t around. Even the few head designers had gone overseas to participate in a competition. Currently, there’s no one important in Zhuang Ji. If you don’t take action now, it won’t be easy for you to find a better opportunity in the future.”

Ye Cheng muttered, “The embroidery manual is Zhuang Ji’s most treasured possession. How can it be obtained so easily?”

“Didn’t I already say it? The key figures aren’t around. They’re either in S City or overseas. This is why this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

Ye Cheng did not buy into these words. After all, he was familiar with Mu Chen and Cheng Che’s personalities. He did not believe they would treat Zhuang Ji’s most treasured possession so carelessly. However, he was not unmoved.
