"Hello?"

"Is your meeting done?" The man's charming voice filled her ears.

"Yeah. I'm just about to leave HL."

"I'm waiting for you in the parking lot."

Yun Xuan hung up and rushed over. The man was leaning against his car with a bouquet of roses, one of the largest she had ever seen.

"For you." He presented in a gentlemanly manner.

"Thank you."

He opened the car door for her, making Yun Xuan wonder what he was planning by acting all gentlemanly.

"I want to take you somewhere." He said as he started to drive.

"Okay... not like I have a choice..."

Lin Ye glanced at her and chuckled. "You can just say, 'Lin Ye, honey, I will accompany you wherever you want to go'. You don't have to feel embarrassed."

Yun Xuan kept her eyes on the road. What crazy meds had he been taking lately? He had rapidly transformed into a charmer!

Of course, she would never know that he only got so much confidence after being assured by Xia Rou that she had definitely fallen in love with him.

In just a few minutes, he brought her to a building that was quite familiar.

It had been long since she last set foot here.

"This is?" She didn't know the right words to speak.

"YX Brand." The man replied monotonously.

"Of course I know it's YX Brand. But why are we here?"

Lin Ye was amused by her surprised face. He got off the car and helped her down. "I bought it over."

Yun Xuan raised an eyebrow. Back then, she had simply abandoned this company and heaven knew what happened to it. She had only heard later, in passing, that it had been bought over as a subsidiary of another powerful company. All the staff had changed and there was no trace of her. Now Lin Ye was saying that he had bought it over? And he even made it sound like he had simply bought a candy...

She was caught in between happiness and helplessness. She was happy that she could see her former brand but then again, she had abandoned everything when she didn't want to have anything to do with the Yun family. If she were to come back, why did she leave back then?

Knowing what she was thinking about, Lin Ye took her hands. "Xuanxuan, this brand is no longer what it used to be called. Aside from buying it, I also changed its name."

Yun Xuan looked at the entrance of the building and saw the huge YX then looked back at him as though asking what he meant.

"You named it YX to mean Yun Xuan... but it's no longer that. It is now Ye-Xuan."

Yun Xuan was stunned. Ye-Xuan... it sounded more pleasing to the ear...

"Xuanxuan, this is the place where we first met. Our most important memories are also here. I couldn't lose it forever.

Not only that, Xuanxuan, the most important days of my life days are the days when I was your employee. I would give everything to turn back time and be your employee once again. But since that cannot be done, I hope I can relive those moments, every single one of them, under these circumstances.

So, boss, please take me in?

Yun Xuan laughed with her eyes that had turned red and watery. "You idiot."

Lin Ye smiled and took her hand. "Boss, shall we?"

Yun Xuan followed behind him with her hand held in his.

Until today, she didn't know that she held such deep feelings for this place.

This man actually understood her more than she understood herself.

....

They went to the tenth floor.

As soon as the elevator doors slid open, she stepped out cautiously as though walking into the emperor's court.

The tenth floor was suddenly filled with cheer.

"The Boss is here!"

"Boss, you are finally back!"

"Boss, we missed you!"

Yun Xuan stared in shock. "You... you guys..."

"Most of the staff were fired but many of the designers were retained." Lin Ye explained.

Yun Xuan went over to hug the employees she had not seen in ages. Even the new ones cheered, you would think they had known each other for ages.

"I missed you too."

"I didn't believe it when Top Designer Lin said it! He really managed to bring boss back!" An emotional designer sobbed.

Yun Xuan patted her head. It seemed like they had not been treated quite well since she left.

"Boss, you are so beautiful!"

"Yeah. Much more matching of the boss we once knew."

"Am I the only one focusing on the way our boss is looking at Top Designer Lin?" A gossipy employee said.

Her statement opened a huge topic of discussion.

"No way! Are they together?"

"Are you kidding? Designer Lin actually managed to crawl into the boss' heart??"

Back then, Lin Ye had been Yun Xuan's top admirer and everyone in the company knew it. They just didn't dare to mention it aloud. But what kind of twist was this? They actually got together?

"I think it makes sense. None of us knew where she was but Designer Lin brought her right back when he said he would!"

"I say, how romantic! He conquered the kingdom for her!"

"I liked the boss very much back then, but I have to admit they are a perfect match."

Yun Xuan glanced at them and laughed. She had missed their gossipy ways. "You do know that I'm still here, right?"

They were all in a good mood so they teased her endlessly.

"I suggest we throw a party to welcome her back." Someone suggested.

Lin Ye glared at them for trying to hog onto his wife and pulled her to him protectively. "Your banquet can wait. I'm taking my Xuanxuan away tonight."

"Jeez..." they booed. Did he have to shove a whole ton of dog food at them?

Yun Xuan was slightly embarrassed that he was acting all affectionate in the presence of her former subordinates.

She pulled him away, "Let's check out the CEO's office."

As soon as she entered her former office, she really had to give it to him. The theme and decor must have been changed by the new CEO, but he had changed it back.

Everything looked new but they were all in line with her liking, even the pens on the desk were similar to those she used in the past.

"So, CEO, you decided to decorate your office so you wouldn't miss me?" She teased.

Lin Ye made her seat behind the desk. "Who are you calling 'CEO'? You are obviously the CEO, alright?"

"What?"

Yun Xuan had thought that she would at most be a head stylist since this was now his company. She had thought that all the employees calling her 'boss' was simply something he had arranged to relive the moments. But this... "If I'm the CEO, what are you?"

Lin Ye looked at her like she was asking the obvious. "Obviously, the top designer."

He inched closer to teasingly say, "If you want to reverse roles once in a while, that's alright too. You would be a normal stylist and as the top designer, I would be your superior."

Yun Xuan was speechless. "What about our current jobs?"

"Lihua wouldn't mind it if you came back to YX. My boss won't lose out if I left MAX. There are other reputable designers and besides, MAX and HL Entertainment will both be our business allies."

Yun Xuan had nothing to complain about. This guy had covered all the loopholes.

Of course, he didn't mention how Lin Lihua had chewed him out for poaching her head stylist.

The man's gaze remained fixated on her.

Yun Xuan sensed the burning stare and looked up at him. "Why are you giving me that look?"

"I'm taking in your beauty." He cleared his throat, then said the one thing he had wanted to say all day. "Xuanxuan, let's go on a vacation. We can take little Feng to play and let him see the world."

Yun Xuan thought it was a good idea. The little boy had mostly stayed indoors as a baby and according to Xia Rou and the pediatrician, letting him out might improve his immunity.

"Okay, where do you want to go?"

"Rio? Paris? Bali? Honey, how about you decide this time?"
