That day, the employees of Shui Cooperation were having a field day of gossip. It seemed as if everyone's whole world suddenly collapsed. And why wouldn't it be like that? Over 85 percent of employees had placed a bet in the hopes of winning. Originally, the prize pool wasn't big. After all, these white collars wouldn't dare take a big amount of money out of their pockets.

However, these small chunks of money that they did take out, ended up making up a hefty sum. It wouldn't have hurt anyone but the thing was, this hefty sum ended up in the pocket of a single person! Because only that person had placed the bet on the right career of their Master Xian's partner!

Worst of all, they didn't even know the identity of the winner since the betting was done anonymously on the internet and even the money transaction was online. They couldn't find anything unless they hacked into the system.

"I can't believe it!" was the sentence most heard throughout the whole building. "Master Xian is actually dating President Raelle of Xiang Conglomerate!"

"She is a legend!" said someone from the secretarial department. "And she is my girl crush as well."

"She is currently everyone's crush," reminded the man beside her. "This is the first picture of President Raelle on the internet and it's enough to make her everyone's crush. She is so gorgeous!"

"Right? I never thought the woman whom everyone named as a devil was actually so breathtaking."

"Most importantly, when she stands with our Master Xian, they look like a match made in heaven."

"They complement each other perfectly!"

Someone saw Ruan Meilin walking and instead of lowering her voice, she raised it as she said, "In fact, only someone like President Raelle deserves to stand beside Master Xian. Both are brilliant people and definitely look perfect together."

That woman even gave Ruan Meilin a provocative smile with a glint in her eyes. It was obvious that she wanted to rub this fact in Ruan Meilin's face. But her words were sincere. She really meant it when she said that Raelle deserved to stand beside Shui Xian. She had never thought that someone as jealous as Ruan Meilin deserved to put even her name beside Shui Xian.

Originally, she had nothing against Ruan Meilin and might have even looked up to her when she first joined the company. But as she became Shui Xian's assistant, she started to stand out as a thorn to Ruan Meilin and she repeatedly made things difficult for her. It was only then that this young woman's whole worldview crashed and her admiration for Ruan Meilin turned into despise.

On the other hand, the exhilarating person in the company apart from Shui Xian had to be Ma Jin who was grinning from ear to ear. He won the bet. Why wouldn't he be happy? Technically, he cheated since he knew about Raelle and even knew more than it was reported in the news. However, he believed that he only had this advantage since he was Master Xian's personal assistant and that was already not a place everyone could reach.

"Feeling happy?" asked Shui Xian when he saw Ma Jin's grin.

Ma Jin tried to control his expressions but couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes, "I was thinking about saying thank you to you, Master Xian."

"Oh?" Shui Xian raised his brow at him.

Ma Jin cleared his throat, "Well, I did win this bet because of the trust you have in me."

"If you're so thankful, how about you give that bet money to me?" suggested Shui Xian seriously.

Ma Jin wilted instantly and looked up at him sadly. He hesitated but still said, "I'll transfer the money then."

Shui Xian shook his head at him, "Jin, you're an idiot! Do you think I lack that much money? Besides, you have my trust because you earned it. That little amount of money can't possibly be exchanged for your loyalty. And if I can exchange it for your loyalty, I don't mind doubling that prize money of yours."

Ma Jin smiled at him, "Definitely don't need that. Master Xian already treats me very well."

"But do you really lack that prize money? I thought I pay you enough."

Ma Jin almost rolled his eyes at his words, "Master Xian, this is different than my salary or bonuses. The betting has a different kind of thrill. You won't understand."

Shui Xian shrugged, "I don't want to understand either." He had never had an interest in betting. Unlike people from his circle who loved to bet on car races, or horse racing and stuff. He always kept his distance from such gambles. Life was already a big gambling game, he couldn't afford to stake another bet.

Ma Jin waited for a minute before asking the question that's been bothering him, "Master Xian, you didn't announce your marriage to President Raelle?"

Since Ma Jin was truly his loyal aid, he didn't mind telling him, "Let's surprise people slowly. If I drop the bomb all at once, it might overwhelm people. Let them first digest the news of me dating."

"Got it," Ma Jin understood instantly. And he grinned again, "But I must say, it's really good. Our stock price just soared this morning. It was a baffling scene." While he was grinning, he was thinking about how this kind of news had almost no impact on Xiang Conglomerate. Good or bad. There were no waves at all. Their stock price was always on the rise and there was no surprise in that.

After all, everyone said Xiang Conglomerate's success was dependent on their chairwoman, Raelle Xiang. Even a scandal of any employee couldn't stir its stocks. Raelle Xiang always knew what she was doing when it came to business and it was because of this unconditional trust people had in her capabilities that no one could possibly shake her business empire.

Sometimes, even he looked at Shui Xian and tsked, "Master Xian really got lucky.." If it was not luck, then he didn't know how else Shui Xian managed to marry someone like Raelle Xiang.
