Lin Yi concludes a meeting by delegating budget responsibilities entirely to his subordinates. He trusts them to manage their budgets, assuring them that funding is not an issue for the company. He instructs them to revise this process quarterly. Afterwards, Lin Yi leaves with Xiao Zihan, leaving the others to reflect on his unprecedented generosity and trust.

"Since he trusts us, he will unconditionally hand over the things for us to do."

"I believe it, I believe it, this time I truly believe it."

"Following a boss like this, what more can one ask for? Just dive in and get it done."

In an instant, everyone’s hearts were both shocked and moved. They also deeply felt Lin Yi’s trust in them, which was incredibly important.

However, these people did not forget their primary duties. After a moment of shock, they began to organize their belongings and quickly left the meeting room, returning to their respective departments to resume their work.

Of course, we don’t need to elaborate on that point. Speaking of Lin Yi, after leaving the meeting room, Xiao Zihan quickly caught up with him.

Watching Lin Yi, who was playfully teasing Luo Ning, Xiao Zihan helplessly pursed his lips:

"You really have a big heart, aren’t you the epitome of a hands-off shopkeeper?"

"Hehe, there’s no end to this. You need to learn to relax.

Otherwise, once you finish one thing, another is waiting for you. You’ll never be done.

Exhausting yourself is not worth it."

Listening to Lin Yi’s twisted logic, Xiao Zihan could only helplessly purse his lips and didn’t argue anymore!

After all, Xiao Zihan knew he couldn’t outtalk Lin Yi with his eloquence.

"Haha, what’s the matter?

Our President Xiao isn’t happy?

Alright, alright, it’s rare for me to come home today, can’t you rest for a day and keep me company?"

Looking at Lin Yi’s mischievous demeanor, Xiao Zihan couldn’t help but burst into laughter:

"Ah, I really can’t deal with you, fine, fine, anyway, the company is yours. If you want me to rest, then I’ll rest. If anything gets delayed, it’s your loss, what does it have to do with me, right?"

However, upon hearing this, Lin Yi instantly glared:

"What nonsense, don’t you know about the concept of joint property? We are a couple; everything belongs to both of us, how can you say it’s just mine?"

Just then, the little Luo Ning in his arms seemed to see Daddy talking about Mommy and suddenly became upset, waving her small fists as they aimed for Lin Yi’s shoulder.

This instantly amused Lin Yi, making him laugh heartily.

Even Xiao Zihan on the side was tickled and laughed.

"Hey, you little thing, don’t you know who treats you well? How dare you hit your dad, such a little ingrate."

Speaking, Lin Yi gave a smack and kissed little Luo Ning’s cheek.

Just like that, the family cheerfully walked out of the corporate building and headed home.

Sitting in the car Xiao Zihan drove, looking at the surrounding skyscrapers.

Feeling the soft sofa under his bottom.

This made Lin Yi momentarily feel a bit dazed.

Throughout the journey to find this mother and child, he hadn’t properly appreciated it, but now, sensing it, Lin Yi felt both familiar and strange.

He had lived in ancient society for two full months, during which he couldn’t even imagine things like cars.

Although the Iron Man Armor was the most frequently used means of transportation, he often traveled by horse-drawn carriage or horseback.

Transitioning from a primitive society to a modern city was truly an adjustment for Lin Yi.

That’s why instead of driving, he let Xiao Zihan drive; he genuinely feared barreling down the middle of the road.

After all, in ancient society, right-hand traffic wasn’t a concept.

Warhorses would choose the widest path to travel.

"Zihan, let’s go to the moon together in a few days!"

On the way home, as Xiao Zihan calmly drove with gentle music playing in the car, Lin Yi suddenly turned his head, staring at Xiao Zihan with burning eyes, and said this.

That caused Xiao Zihan to freeze for a moment, then quickly glance at him before focusing her eyes back on the windshield ahead.

But a faint smile hung at the corners of her mouth:

"What’s the matter? Going on a business trip alone, are you scared?

While busy with work, how can you mind personal affairs?"

As Xiao Zihan said this, a mischievous smile spread across her lips.

Lin Yi, hearing this, looked directly at Xiao Zihan’s charming profile:

"Yes, I’m indeed feeling lonely over there, and scared, scared I won’t see you."

Originally, Xiao Zihan wanted to tease Lin Yi further, but Lin Yi’s words made her heart ache.

Turning to see Lin Yi’s serious expression, her heart inexplicably hurt.

With one hand on the steering wheel, she reached over with the other to hold Lin Yi’s hand:

"Don’t do dangerous things alone anymore. Since everything has matured over there, don’t go next time, alright? Stay here with me and the child?"

Uttering these words surprised even Xiao Zihan.

After all, she’s a highly understanding woman who knows a man needs a career.

She knows whatever Lin Yi wants to do, she’ll support him and never drag him down.

But now, she couldn’t help blurting out those words, she genuinely feared something might happen to Lin Yi.

Just as Lin Yi said, whenever he leaves, she similarly feels scared and fearful.

She fears not seeing Lin Yi and that their farewell could be endless.

After all, going to the moon is a venture beyond human imagination.

The lunar surface is desolate; even machines frequently fail there, let alone humans.

She deeply wished her man wasn’t placed in danger.

Only Lin Yi never showed this demeanor or spoke such words.

That made Xiao Zihan bury these worries deep in her heart, even fearing mentioning them to Lin Yi, afraid her emotional concerns might affect his career.

Feeling Xiao Zihan’s gentle touch, Lin Yi’s heart gradually calmed down.

Honestly, in ancient society, even with Leng Yu adoring him and considering his feelings in everything, the sentiment never felt this way.

No matter how good Leng Yu was, nothing compared to the sense of security Xiao Zihan provided.

After all, Xiao Zihan offered him the warmth of home. As long as she and their child were there, it was his home.

Also, it was his haven where he could drop all pretenses.

Thus, this time, coming back, he’d decided he must take Xiao Zihan and the child over.

If given the chance, he’d bring his parents along too.

Even if the societal life there couldn’t match this side, he firmly believed, as long as they’re together, Xiao Zihan wouldn’t refuse.

The only consideration now was how to explain things to Xiao Zihan.

Should he reveal all his secrets?

Should he tell Xiao Zihan about having a system?

Although Xiao Zihan was his only trusted person in the world who’d never betray him, Lin Yi still hesitated to share this secret.
