Lisa stared at Xuefeng for a short while, her eyebrows lifting with each of her new idea of a comeback before frowning after realizing its flaws that Xuefeng could exploit . Knowing the power Xiao Family had, once she become enemies with them, they could pull a lot of strings to hinder her carrier . After all, not many would want to offend them .
"You know that this is a blackmail? Do you think we can cooperate with such relationship?" Lisa asked, her eyes turning sharp, not bothered with his hand that was still holding onto her chin .
"It's not," Xuefeng quickly denied . "I want you to work properly without causing a ruckus every day . Choose . You are running out of time . " Being stared by his gaze, Lisa felt naked, unable to hide her thoughts .
"Who are you?" She threw one last question, finding it hard to believe Xuefeng was just an assistant . With how he presented himself, he could easily act like the representative of the family .
Xuefeng only smiled and didn't reveal anything . "I'm just a simple men, born in a average family of workers who did their best to provide me with everything I needed to become a good man," Xuefeng described himself, for a moment recalling his parents from back on earth . Without them, he wouldn't be a person he is today .
Looking at Xuefeng's eyes, he didn't seem like he was lying . Lisa finally decided what to do .

"Fine, I agree . You are mine now and we start right away," Lisa called out as she grabbed Xuefeng's hand and pulled him after her, walking towards her mansion . "You listen to whatever I say, got it?"
"Sure, boss," Xuefeng smiled and agreed, letting her drag him inside . He only glanced at Xiao Feng on the way, giving him a signal to take care of everything else as he takes care of Lisa .
BAM .
The doors slammed after the two entered, leaving the other three outside . Jiao was frowning, not liking the fact that Xuefeng was alone with her sister, the General Manager was scared that he would be at fault once Xiao Feng's son-in-law gets injured under Lisa regime and Xiao Feng was deep in thought, wondering what he should tell others so they don't freak out .
"Mr . Xiao… Is it safe to leave Young Master with Miss Lisa? Many of our Alchemy Assistants were heavily injured during Miss Lisa's experiments . . . " The manager asked worriedly, already traumatized after taking care of Lisa for about a week .
"Xuefeng knows what he is doing . He wanted to study alchemy so this is a good chance for him," Xiao Feng replied simply, not giving any more details . "Provide them with anything they want . I'm leaving . "
"Mr . Xiao, I will return with you and help the rest," Jiao quickly joined him, not wanting to be forgotten to which Xiao Feng nodded, leading the way .

Both her sister and Xuefeng ignored her so she had to find her own place .

Back in the new Liu Clan Palace, new visitors came a short moment after Xuefeng left to settle Lisa's matter . The moment they saw Manager Wu, they immediately bowed their heads and listened to her orders without questions . Although Xuefeng's parents didn't know about Manager Wu full origin, Xiao Yuying was more than knowledgeable about her and sent her greetings right as the two met .
"Little Wu! It's so nice to see you!" Xiao Yuying called out from afar and hugged her like an auntie who met her niece . "How many years it was when I last seen you . Must have been more that five, right?"
"Aunt Xiao, it was only six," Manager Wu returned the hug, treating her warmly, like a part of her family . "This time I returned for good . I will be Xuefeng's exclusive manager . "
"Oh! Thats fantastic . " Xiao Yuying exclaimed, knowing exactly what that meant . Having Xuefeng as her client, Manager Wu made a huge deal, swallowing both Xuefeng and his clan . "I'm happy for you . Xuefeng made a good choice . "

Manager Wu only smiled, knowing that was correct before excusing herself, seeing that all the crates were already unloaded . "Aunt Xiao, I will leave for now, I will visit for tea later if I find time," she said before walking towards her men who were already waiting for her .
Xiao Yuying didn't mind that as she knew time was precious for people like Manager Wu . The girls and her daughters already left to help organize the palace but there was one that Xiao Yuying asked to stay behind .
"Yiren?" She called out to the blond beauty next to her that was patiently waiting . "What do you think of Auntie?"
Yiren blinked innocently and replied honestly, "I have nothing against you . Only father is a baddie who needs some work . "
"Haha, true!" Xiao Yuying couldn't help but laugh in agreement . "He does need someone to temper him but he is not why I told you to stay behind . Can you guess why?"
"I have no idea," Yiren shook her head . When everyone was going to choose their rooms, Xiao Yuying came up to her and told her to stay . Being a kind lady, Yiren didn't reject her .
"Well, let me tell you," Xiao Yuying began explaining . "I noticed that you have a talent in you . Just like Xuefeng or your mother, you have a talent to be a leader in you . Despite being kind and gentle, you can still muster up some courage to fight back on your believes . "
Xiao Yuying's words put Yiren into thinking, before hitting her with a proposal . "How about you study under me? I will teach you how to become a real supporting lady-leader . As someone who has been by your father's side this whole time as he created our family, I learned a lot . I can feel that you want to stay by Xuefeng's side without being just a side character . You want to influence his decisions instead of just following them . What do you think?"
As much as Yiren thought about it, she was momentarily interested but a slight uncertainty of why Xiao Yuying wanted to help her appeared in Yiren's mind . As if Xiao Yuying knew that from Yiren's expression, she spoke before Yiren even thought of a response .
"You probably wonder why I want to help you, right? Don't think too deeply into in . I know you all love Xuefeng and he loves you . The thing is, every successful man has a woman behind him who does things he doesn't want to do or simply doesn't know how . Both my daughters are already aware of what they want and they can fight for their believes . From my observation, you are more willing for compromises for Xuefeng's sake . If I can help you improve, I am helping them as well," Xiao Yuying explained further .
"Mhmm, I understand," Yiren acknowledged with a nod and shared her thoughts . "If my change can improve my relations with Xuefeng, I'm more than happy to learn but if I have to do anything that I consider inappropriate, then we will stop . "
"So is that a yes?" Xiao Yuying asked to confirm and hearing Yiren's confirmation, she smiled, patting Yiren on the head .
"Follow me around today . I will teach you while showing you examples on the spot," Xiao Yuying wrapped their arms together and pulled Yiren with her .
