"It's a robot."

Speaking solemnly, Chu Ge made a few mechanical dance moves, twisting his neck and wrist joints, looking quite impressive with his gestures.

After Chu Ge provided such an unreliable answer, the entire office was silent for a few seconds, and then burst into laughter.

When Mo Xiaoran belatedly exclaimed "Ah" with a skeptical look on her face, the laughter turned into an uproar. Feifei laughed so hard that she held her belly and couldn't straighten up.

Chu Ge was speechless at Mo Xiaoran's reaction, unable to believe this girl couldn't react to such nonsense. How pure could she be?

It's worth mentioning that it's truly rare these days to encounter such a naive girl.

After chatting casually with a few girls, Ji Songtao pushed the door open and came in.

"Chu Ge, thank goodness for you today. Without you, the consequences would have been unimaginable. On behalf of the Operation Management Department, I want to say thank you."

Ji Songtao, as the minister of this department, was treated with more respect by Chu Ge than other colleagues and said modestly, "Minister Ji, you're too kind. I can't accept this."

Ji Songtao waved his hand with a smile and said, "You can definitely accept it. You are the great benefactor of our film company. Oh, and the chairman wants to see you upstairs; she has something to discuss with you. Her office is on the top floor, far right. Hurry over there."

Listening to Ji Songtao's envious tone, Chu Ge couldn't help but find it amusing. Just being able to talk to Qin Ruojing was enough to make Ji Songtao envious? If he knew he'd slept in the same bed as Qin Ruojing, what would his reaction be?

Leaving the Operation Management Department, Chu Ge took the elevator to the top floor. He had known Qin Ruojing for some time, but this was his first visit to her office.

Qin Ruojing's office was large, with pure black marble tiles on the floor. Directly opposite the door was a high-end rosewood desk, clearly worth a fortune. Behind it was a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and a bookshelf filled with perhaps hundreds of books stood diagonally in the corner on the left side of the desk.

In the vast office, only Qin Ruojing was present, sitting gracefully in a large leather chair behind the desk. She appeared elegant and poised, noble yet approachable, without the arrogant air common in those with authority.

The room was filled with the faint aroma of books and Qin Ruojing's scent. Sunlight streamed through the glass, illuminating her profile and adding a dazzling glow to her already exquisite face.

"Chairman." Chu Ge closed the door and smiled at Qin Ruojing, greeting her.

"Thank you so much for today." Qin Ruojing stood behind the desk, looking directly at the approaching Chu Ge and spoke seriously and formally.

Chu Ge smiled speechlessly, "Can we change the topic a bit? Since I got back, all I've heard are these two words."

Qin Ruojing's face bloomed with a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, gracefully shaking her head.

"Even if you don't want to hear it, I must say it. There's nothing that better expresses my feelings at this moment than these two words."

Chu Ge shrugged and sat down on the sofa in Qin Ruojing's office, saying, "Enough with the verbal gratitude. Is there anything more substantial?"

Qin Ruojing curled her lips into a smile, elegantly sat back down behind the desk, and nodded.

"Yes, how about you become the general manager of the film company? Are you up for it?"

Upon hearing Qin Ruojing's words, Chu Ge burst into laughter, "I didn't realize you have a sense of humor!"

Seeming to understand Chu Ge's disbelief, Qin Ruojing's expression remained calm and serious. She slowly shook her head and said, "Chu Ge, I'm not joking with you. You've been working at the film company for a few days now. You may have noticed that you've never seen the general manager, right?"

Looking up at Qin Ruojing, seeing her sincere expression without any trace of joking, Chu Ge asked with disbelief, "Chairman, are you sure? We've only known each other for a few days, and you're already comfortable handing over a company to me?"

Qin Ruojing nodded, "Trust those you employ and employ those you trust. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have brought you home to pretend as my boyfriend."

Chu Ge found Qin Ruojing's explanation not only speechless but also somewhat amusing.

"Come on, these are two completely unrelated situations. Just because I can pretend to be your boyfriend doesn't mean I can manage a company."

Without answering Chu Ge's question, Qin Ruojing maintained her elegant smile and asked again, "Chu Ge, tell me, what do you think is the most important thing for managing a company?"

Chu Ge immediately replied casually, "Education, skills, experience, connections."

Qin Ruojing slowly shook her head again and said, "While what you said matters, it's not the most important. To manage a company, the most crucial elements are a calm mind, composed demeanor, ability to see the bigger picture, and the judgment to quickly find the best solutions. In these aspects, though I hate to admit it, I must say you're even better than me."

Seeing Chu Ge with a smile on his face, Qin Ruojing interrupted the words he hadn't had a chance to say, and continued, "There's no need for you to deny it. Compared to your words, I'd rather trust my own eyes. Since we met, you've proved this point more than once through your actions."

"You may seem lazy and carefree on the surface, but in reality, you're meticulous, calm, decisive, and knowledgeable. Let's not talk about the past for now. Just take today's matter as an example. I looked it up online just now; there are many types of asthma, and some can lead to heart disease, which I didn't know, but you did."

"Then, putting myself in your shoes, if it were me handling it, let's not even talk about whether I could have bought the medicine so quickly. Even if I could, under such circumstances, I wouldn't have thought to buy heart disease medicine along with asthma medicine like you did. You bought two types, maybe even more."

I have to say, being praised like this by this beautiful chairman Qin Ruojing, Chu Ge felt pretty good. He laughed and touched his nose, saying, "I've got so many merits, huh? If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known."

Qin Ruojing nodded again, "That's right, you do have so many merits. So what do you think? Interested in being the general manager of Tianjiao Film and Television Company?"

Chu Ge laughed out loud, "I say, beautiful Qin, even if you're the chairman of the group, isn't this a bit ridiculous? I'm just a newbie in the company, and even a comeback can't be this dramatic. Do you think other board members would agree?"

"That's not important; what's important is whether you're willing or not. I'm the chairman of Tianjiao Group, and I have one veto vote."

With a confident smile on her lips, Qin Ruojing looked straight into Chu Ge's eyes. She believed with such a great opportunity, Chu Ge had no reason to refuse. Anyone would seize it.

However, within her confident smile, Chu Ge simply shook his head and grinned broadly, "Thanks for the kind offer, Chairman. I'm not very ambitious; I'd be fine running errands and doing odd jobs, but being a general manager is not for me. My shoulders are too slim to bear such a heavy burden."

Qin Ruojing was stunned, her confident smile turned into a surprised one, and her slender eyebrows gradually furrowed.

She really couldn't understand how Chu Ge could pass up such a golden opportunity? How could he smile so carefree, talking as if he was giving up something trivial?

"Chairman, if there's nothing else, I'll be heading back?" Seeing Qin Ruojing silent, Chu Ge smiled slightly and stood up from the sofa.

"Wait."

Just as he was about to reach the door, Qin Ruojing snapped back to her senses and suddenly called out to him.

"You... really won't consider it at all?"

"Really." Chu Ge nodded helplessly.

"Then, how about this, I'll promote you to Deputy Minister of the Operation Management Department." Although Qin Ruojing couldn't understand Chu Ge's thinking, since he was already set on his words, she could only sigh inwardly and said, opting for a lesser choice.

"Uh... no need for that either. Just give me a bonus directly."

"There will definitely be a bonus, but don't refuse the promotion. After all, your actions today essentially saved Tianjiao Film and Television. If I don't show any recognition for such a significant contribution, it will surely dampen the motivation of others."

"Alright, let's leave it at that then."

Chu Ge hesitated for a moment, knowing that Qin Ruojing was indeed reasonable, so he nodded helplessly and agreed to it.

As the door Chu Ge had closed again looked behind, Qin Ruojing couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

For once she made such a determined decision, yet Chu Ge didn't care at all. Not to mention being excited, he outright rejected without even a thought.

Instinctively, a line of dialogue from Chu Ge echoed in Qin Ruojing's mind.

"You don't understand a man's mind."

Indeed, Qin Ruojing didn't understand, but she didn't think it was herself who didn't understand a man's mind. After all, even her father was keen on climbing higher in the political ladder. So why did Chu Ge have no desire for power whatsoever?

She had to beg him just to get him promoted. How could there be such a person in the world?

Unable to make sense of it, Qin Ruojing finally shook her head helplessly.

As Chu Ge returned to the Operation Management Department office, Qin Ruojing had already decisively and very publicly issued the personnel appointment.

The news of Chu Ge's promotion to Deputy Minister of the Administrative Department spread through Tianjiao Film and Television Company like a gust of wind.

However, upon hearing the news, everyone's reactions were different.
