There was a smile on that man’s lips as his fingers touched Xia Zhiwan’s cheek pitifully. “You don’t need to know who I am. You just need to know that I like you a lot now. Besides, I believe that you can take on this position.”

He wanted to personally protect this bud that had not shown her capabilities, waiting for the day when she would bloom beautifully.

His words were filled with a superior’s confidence and a lover’s gentleness. It was as if he had cast a spell, causing Xia Zhiwan’s heart to be drawn into him.

Although the man in front of her seemed to look at her like she was a precious treasure, she knew that he was a stubborn person. He would not reveal anything else since he already said that.

“Then you should at least tell me how I should address you, right?”

“I won’t mind if you call me hubby now.” The elegant, good-looking man seemed to be cold and domineering. However, when facing Xia Zhiwan, he always could not help but tease her.

Seeing her face about to turn red with anger again, he teased and bit her earlobe with the corner of his mouth. “Just call me Issac.”

“Are you mixed? Your eyes are gorgeous.” Xia Zhiwan stared at his deep eyes as she complimented sincerely.

His eyes were like high-quality emeralds. His pupils were so clear and bright that her reflection could be seen.

Issac just smiled without giving her a direct answer. He then took her hand and kissed it. “In that case, I hope that you’ll forever stay in my eyes.”

Xia Zhiwan bit her lower lip and tried to hold back her excitement. She then changed the topic and said, “The position you have given me is too high. Xia Zhiya is going to go crazy and never let me off the hook.”

Indeed, Xia Zhiwan joined the Xia Corporation to gradually prove herself using her efforts and climb to the top. However, such sudden news came.

The man’s arrogant eyes seem to look down on all ordinary beings. Nonetheless, he stroked her soft, delicate hair, wrapped them around his finger, and said confidently, “I’ll protect you. I’ll get rid of those annoying bugs sooner or later.”

When Xia Zhiwan returned to the general manager’s office with a flushed face, she was surprised to see her colleagues surrounding the door.

The employees who treated her coldly and rudely in the morning had all come over to apologize to her.

Among them, there was also Weiwei with a ponytail. Weiwei explained to Xia Zhiwan awkwardly, “Please don’t take it to heart. It’s Xia Zhiya who asked us to deliberately target the newcomer. We’re just employees with low positions, so we won’t dare to refuse her. Please be generous and forgive our wrongdoings.”
