"What brand is this phone?"
Even Ceren was unfamiliar with Adohi's phone model.
It was not only light and clear, but also had an exceptionally good texture, clearly made with advanced high-tech technology.
Moreover, the back of the phone had an incomprehensible pattern.
It depicted a man holding swords upright in front of his chest, the cold blades obscuring his face!
Sword-Wielding Expert!
Behind the man, there were three mysterious totemic symbols.
One was an 'A' character pattern!
Another was a blood-red ferocious dragon!
And the last one was a dark, menacing tyrannosaurus!
They stood solemnly behind the swordsman, forming an iron triangle, exuding a mysterious aura.
"I didn't expect domestic machines to be made so well now. I should buy one myself soon!"
Ceren, unaware of the consequences, quickly took a photo with her phone, thinking of unlocking Adohi's phone.
However, she entered the wrong password twice, and Adohi's phone secretly captured a photo of her pretty face!
"What on earth is the password for this phone..."
Ceren was frantic inside!
At that moment, the sound of the shower in the bathroom stopped!
"He's finished showering!"
Ceren hastily put Adohi's phone back in its place, then sat in front of the vanity in a fluster, pretending to care for her skin in the mirror, as a way to hide her guilt.
Adohi glanced over and asked, "Did you look at my phone?"
"No, I didn't!"
Ceren's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly changed the subject, saying, "The bed is mine, you can only sleep on the sofa! If you dare to mess around, I will immediately put an end to you."
Adohi shrugged indifferently, as Ceren's room was spacious enough, and the sofa next to the floor-to-ceiling window looked very expensive, making it a decent place to sleep.
After the lights were out.
Ceren quietly took out her phone, trying to decipher Adohi's phone password through the secretly taken photo of the mysterious totem.
Unexpectedly.
As soon as she opened the search page, within a second, Ceren's phone displayed a screen full of codes and then went black, refusing to turn on again!
"Why is this happening..."
Ceren, shocked, widened her eyes and quickly took out her spare phone to search for the pattern from the cloud storage. To her surprise, even the spare phone instantly went black and crashed!
Moreover, she couldn't access the cloud storage anymore!
"Is the phone infected with a virus?"
Ceren was furious, suspecting that the pattern on the back of Adohi's phone might be a malicious graphic linked to a virus!
"Damn it..."
With a mood of anger, Ceren helplessly closed her eyes to sleep, but strangely dreamt of ambiguous scenes with Adohi...
The night passed without incident.
Ceren woke up early from her dream, only to see that Adohi had already gotten up and left the room, studying Tai Chi with Old Master Lindsey, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"This guy, he must be trying to please Grandpa again, aiming for some benefits!"
Ceren, feeling annoyed, quickly went downstairs after washing up!
"Ceren, come here!"
Old Master Lindsey, smiling, said, "Find a position for Adohi in the company, so he can get a deeper understanding of our Lindsey Group's structure. Let's start his salary at two hundred thousand a month!"
Ceren couldn't help but take a deep breath, her suspicions were confirmed!
"Grandpa!"
She quickly said, "Even graduate students in the group only earn forty thousand a month, what makes him deserve such a high salary without any outstanding abilities?"
Her father Norio also came forward, agreeing, "Yes, father, if this gets out in the group, I don't know what everyone will think, it might affect..."
Clearly, Norio also disapproved of Old Master Lindsey's arrangement!
"What's wrong with a salary of two hundred thousand? Doesn't my grandson-in-law deserve it?"
Old Master Lindsey's face darkened, "Listen, it's an honor for Adohi to work in our group. If anyone objects, let them resign on their own!"
Norio and Ceren were at a loss for words, only able to glare at Adohi with resentment.
Adohi remained indifferent.
"Thank you, Grandpa Lindseydsey."
Adohi thanked him cheerfully, and Old Master Lindsey waved it off, "We're family, no need for formalities. Besides, this salary is actually less than you deserve."
"No, it's already quite high."
Adohi humbly replied, while giving Ceren a smug look.
"This jerk...!"
Ceren, angry, whispered to Old Master Lindsey, "Grandpa, what you don't know is that Adohi spent over 7 million, nearly 8 million, with the gold card you gave him last night..."
Norio was also annoyed, saying, "Father, why don't you make him return the card? That guy spends money without any sense, if this continues, I fear..."
They thought Old Master Lindsey would be furious, but to their surprise, the old man just smiled slightly, nodding in satisfaction, "I think it's a good thing. His willingness to spend my money shows he doesn’t see us as outsiders!"
"You father and daughter, you shouldn't be so narrow-minded! Adohi is a great blessing for our Lindsey Family, and he comes with great fortune! I like him more and more, and you should also cherish this opportunity!"
Hearing Old Master Lindsey’s words, Norio and Ceren secretly gritted their teeth, only able to suppress their anger and leave for work.
"Take Adohi with you."
Old Master Lindsey instructed his assistant to check the spending on the gold card, only to find that not a single penny had been spent.
He smiled slightly, growing even fonder of his grandson-in-law, Adohi.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
Ceren sat down in the driver's seat, her eyes flashing with anger, "Grandpa keeps favoring that jerk Adohi, always trying to push us together..."
Norio's gaze sharpened as he said, "The eighth team is short of people. Send Adohi there to report. Let him experience the harshness of society; he'll give up on his own eventually!"
"The eighth team..."
Ceren couldn't help but smile, "You're always the strategist, Dad! The eighth team, formed by the young masters of the group's shareholders, will surely be tough for Adohi..."
Finishing her words, Ceren immediately took out her phone to call the leader of the eighth team, "Omega Yale, a colleague named Adohi will report to your team today. I've long been irritated by him..."
On the other end, Omega chuckled knowingly, "Daring to upset our sister Ceren and still coming to work at the group? Don't worry, I'll teach that Adohi what real danger is!"
In the Lindsey Group, Ceren held the position of Director, recognized as the most powerful and prestigious among the younger generation of the group's shareholders.
After the call, Ceren's mood cleared up.
"Adohi, you shouldn't have crossed me!"
She could already envision Adohi being bullied by Omega and his group.
