"You are..."

Gao Panpan furrowed her brows, observing the young man in front of her, who was leaning with one hand on the door frame, eyes downcast like he was striking a pose.

The young man had short, chestnut-colored shaggy hair. The rose held in his mouth covered half of his facial features, but it was still clear that his brows and eyes were attractive, and he had fair skin.

After watching for a long time, it even made one think he was a bit beautiful!

Of course, that's the flattering way to put it; more bluntly, he looked a bit effeminate, lacking the heroic aura a man should have.

A minute passed, and Gao Panpan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed. She rubbed her temples in a bit of frustration, "Linlang Sis, doing this every day, aren't you tired?"

Yes, the "young man" who looked a bit beautiful was actually Du Linlang.

What Gao Panpan meant by "doing this every day" wasn't that Du Linlang dressed as a man every day, but that every day she could come up with new tricks, catching her off guard and leaving her in a spin.

After being recognized, Du Linlang removed the rose from her mouth, her eyes alluring like water, saying, "Not bad, you're improving. The time it took you to see through the disguise was half a minute faster than I expected. It seems you're starting to get into my rhythm."

With that, she hooked her leg and the office door closed with a "click".

Gao Panpan chuckled wryly, sat back on the sofa, feeling a bit exhausted both mentally and physically. After closing her eyes for a moment, she opened them and asked, "Aren't you tired?"

This was a question Gao Panpan had asked many times and the one she most wanted to know the answer to.

Because logically speaking, as the one being "toyed" with, she already felt a headache, so the person as the designer and manipulator should expend much more energy than she did.

Du Linlang smiled slightly, walked over to sit down, and said, "If possible, I'd like to slow down the pace a bit so that you'd feel excited and refreshed, not bored and tired. However..."

She laughed helplessly at this point: "Time doesn't allow it. I must, as quickly as possible, improve your observation, memory, psychological endurance, etc. This is my responsibility to you."

Gao Panpan pondered and said, "So, it took me less than a minute to see through your disguise, and that's still not considered qualified?"

"Yes." Du Linlang nodded to acknowledge: "After so many days, maybe you think I am teasing you, but unfortunately, I am not that malicious.

If you compare these days' events to a game, for both of us, the gaming experience is quite poor. At least I don't get any sense of achievement, and you don't find any enjoyment."

"Then why are you doing this?" Gao Panpan asked.

"Naturally, to cultivate a habit in you," Du Linlang laughed, "a habit of questioning everything in front of you, then summarize the information you have gathered and make your own judgment."

Pausing, she continued, "Take just now, for example, leaving aside my disguise, you too should be able to quickly come to a conclusion.

You've seen the structure of Lanyue Group, so think about it, if I were a stranger, what are the odds that I could directly come to the top floor and push open the office door?"

After pondering for a long time, Gao Panpan argued, "What if they were a top-notch expert? Like... Xiao Feng."

Du Linlang shook her head and laughed, "If a top-notch expert really snuck in, what do you think the purpose would be?

Shouldn't you be wary and on guard?

Or are you simply unafraid of being killed or kidnapped?"

After saying that, she suddenly leaned toward Gao Panpan, looking down at her, reaching out with her right index finger to hook under her chin, combined with her facial expression, exuding a domineering aura!

A few days ago, Gao Panpan might still have panicked or blushed and her heart raced.

However, after being teased many times, her immunity naturally strengthened.

At least now, when facing Du Linlang's occasional flirtation, Gao Panpan could largely remain calm.

At this moment, the phone in Gao Panpan's pocket rang.

After listening for a while she said, "Okay, I understand."

Hanging up the call, Gao Panpan looked at Du Linlang: "The front desk called, a man claiming to represent the Jiangcheng Bai Family specifically wants to see you. His attitude is quite arrogant, seems to be no ordinary person."

"The Bai Family?" Du Linlang leaned back on the sofa, her eyes thoughtful as she recalled how many Bai Families were in Jiangcheng.

Soon, Du Linlang remembered that the Jiangcheng Bai Family should be an older, established family, more deeply rooted than the Du Family in Jiangcheng.

Regarding recent events about the Bai Family, it had to do with the Bai Family's son-in-law, the former deputy director of Jiangcheng, Miao Youmin, who was sentenced to prison.

This matter wasn't well-known publicly, but within the upper circles, it caused quite a stir, heavily impacting any businesses associated with Miao Youmin.

Although Du Linlang didn't know too many details, she was naturally aware of it.

"Is this Bai Family very famous?" Gao Panpan asked in confusion.

"You could say that." Du Linlang nodded.

Whether it's a good reputation or a bad one, for at least the past few decades, the Bai Family has been relatively active, causing a stir occasionally.

But the question is, why is the Bai Family looking for her?

"Alright, inform the front desk to bring them up," Du Linlang decided.

Whether they come in good faith or not, see them first before deciding.

"Are you sure you don't need to change outfits?" Gao Panpan looked Du Linlang up and down, appearing very surprised.

"No need." Du Linlang shook her head: "Because starting now, you are Du Linlang. I'll just go to the bathroom while you meet with the Bai Family people. After all, they've never seen what I look like."

Gao Panpan was instantly scared into standing up: "No, I can't meet them for you, I..."

But Du Linlang didn't turn her head, walking straight towards the bathroom.

Gao Panpan took a deep breath, took off the small suit she was wearing, leaving only a white shirt, and sat behind the office desk.

Life is like a play; since getting to know Du Linlang, Gao Panpan felt this profoundly.

Every day is a different experience, though this freshness doesn't bring her any pleasure.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

The sound of knocking came.

"Come in," Gao Panpan said without lifting her head, recalling Du Linlang's usual demeanor, striving to present the right appearance.

The employee responsible for leading the way opened the door and was dumbfounded upon seeing Gao Panpan sitting behind the desk.

This...what's going on?

Usurping power?

But in today's world, just wearing a Dragon Robe and sitting on a Dragon Throne doesn't make you the Emperor!

"The guest is here, now please leave," Gao Panpan said flatly.

"Uh... okay." The employee who led the Bai Family person over left the office in a daze.
