At this instant, while watching Zhao Gushen carry Ye Xiaomo, Xiao Ruofeng was as shocked as if he had been struck by lightning.

He finally knew who Ye Xiaomo looked like.

He was practically a miniature carved-out version of Zhao Gushen!

But looking at Zhao Gushen’s expression, it didn’t seem like he had realized it yet.

That was normal. He was used to seeing himself in the mirror everyday, so it wasn’t easy for him to notice.

Xiao Ruofeng hurriedly told Ye Fei, “You can register directly for the competition through the official website. Since you are here, I’ll just use my computer to register for you.”

“That is too much of a bother. We’ll just go back and register instead.” Ye Fei was embarrassed.

“It’s okay. If you register your name here, I’ll approve it for you right away,” Xiao Ruofeng smiled.

He didn’t care about using his own position for his own personal gain in front of Zhao Gushen at all.

Think about who he was doing all these for!

For Zhao Gushen!

Noticing how similar Ye Xiaomo and Zhao Gushen looked, Xiao Ruofeng felt that something was wrong by instinct.

“Pardon us for inconveniencing you at work,” Ye Fei said in embarrassment.

“No problem. It’s our lunch break now anyway, so I don’t have any work,” Xiao Ruofeng answered.

During the lunch break, he could do whatever he wanted to; Zhao Gushen couldn’t control that.

“Heh,” Zhao Gushen sneered but he did not say anything in the end.

“Thank you, Uncle!” Ye Xiaomo exclaimed sweetly and he opened his arms to reach out towards Xiao Ruofeng.

Zhao Gushen felt that this stinky kid didn’t have any conscience—he sold his allegiance to whoever was the highest bidder!

Ignoring the enthusiasm that Ye Xiaomo was showing towards Xiao Ruofeng, Zhao Gushen walked away while still carrying him.

Cupping his tiny face in his hands, Ye Xiaomo asked Zhao Gushen happily, “Uncle, are you jealous? Don’t worry, I still like you the best!”

“Elegant but insincere words!” Zhao Gushen remarked in disdain.

But his hands could not help but tighten around Ye Xiaomo a little more.

When Ye Fei saw this, she rushed to follow them.

This… Why is he even carrying her son while leaving?!

However, she did not realize that the surrounding employees had already been stunned by them at this moment.

“That… What relationship does that child have with the president?”

“He looks so much like the president, it can’t be… it can’t be that he’s the president’s illegitimate child, right?”

“Shhh! You even dare to say such a thing! But they do look very similar…”

“I just heard him call the president ‘Uncle’. Could he be the president’s nephew?”

“Impossible! The president’s younger brother is still single! Where could a child have come from?”

“It’s also possible that he is the president’s younger brother’s—”

Naturally, Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei were unaware of their guesses.

When they entered the elevator, Xiao Ruofeng asked inadvertently, “I always see you bringing your child around, but I have not seen your husband.”

Embarrassed, Ye Fei’s lips stretched awkwardly and she forced a smile before saying, “I’m single.”

Xiao Ruofeng really wanted to ask her if she was a divorcee or if she got pregnant without marriage.

But when he remembered that this was only their second meeting, Xiao Ruofeng was tactful enough not to ask such a question so directly.

Xiao Ruofeng had his own office. However, most of the time, he worked at an open-space desk outside Zhao Gushen’s office.

To avoid the spread of rumors and the gossip of people.

Xiao Ruofeng brought Ye Fei and Ye Xiaomo into his office.

“Do you two have anything you want to eat in the afternoon? It just so happens that I’m going to order a meal for the president as well. Since we returned a little late in the afternoon, the president is also planning to eat something simple,” Xiao Ruofeng told Ye Fei.

“That would be too much of a bother. We’ll leave after registering. You don’t have to help us order our meals,” Ye Fei said hastily.

“No problem, this is under the company’s expenses anyway. Don’t be afraid. ” When Xiao Ruofeng was done speaking, he turned his head back and glanced at the door behind him. Luckily, Zhao Gushen wasn’t around.

In the end, Ye Fei couldn’t reject out of courtesy so she ordered the same food as Zhao Gushen and Xiao Ruofeng.
