Imperial Garden is located on the most advantageous position halfway up the eastern side of the city, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold.

That evening, Ming Yao did not scrutinize her surroundings carefully.

This time, as she sat in the taxi, she took in the beautiful scenery on both sides of the road through the car window.

The car slowly approached the villa, first passing through a large, well-manicured green belt, and then, as it moved forward, the view suddenly opened up.

A three-story modern mansion stood like a fairy-tale castle in a world beyond the green fields.

The villa was surrounded by grounds spanning thousands of square meters, including a swimming pool, an artificial lake, a garden, and a helipad among others.

Luxurious, yet stately.

After telling the duty staff at the gate that she had come for an interview for the position of Organizer, the staff notified Steward Zhong.

Steward Zhong asked Ming Yao to register and then allowed her into the villa.

There were over ten people who came to interview for the position of Organizer.

After looking over their resumes, Steward Zhong led them to a room filled with clothes.

Each interviewee took turns organizing and tidying up in front of Steward Zhong.

In the end, three were chosen.

Ming Yao was one of the three selected.

Steward Zhong was most satisfied with Ming Yao’s performance.

The young girl was quiet, cultured, and polite; after entering the villa, she did not look around everywhere, remained unperturbed by praise or criticism, and was calm and composed, making her very suitable to work there.

However, there was still one last hurdle.

Steward Zhong led the three to the master bedroom on the second floor.

After all, it was Fourth Master Gu’s room, and aside from Ming Yao, the other two girls were somewhat nervous and excited.

Steward Zhong knocked on the door and, after receiving a response from the man inside, pushed the door open.

The tall and aloof man sat on a single sofa in the master bedroom, his long legs elegantly crossed, one hand holding documents he was reading, the other clutching a cigarette. Through the curling smoke, his features appeared even more handsome and profound, dangerously sexy.

A small fat cat, completely white, lay on his legs.

As Steward Zhong brought the group in, the man merely lifted his eyelids slightly, his demeanor lofty and seemingly unapproachable.

The two previously excited girls, upon seeing his cold brows and eyes, turned from eager to nervous and flustered.

“The Organizer needs to tidy up Fourth Master’s bedroom, and this place is where Little Snowball likes to stay. Only those liked by Little Snowball can remain,” said Steward Zhong.

Steward Zhong looked at the three women, “To prevent injuries from Little Snowball, please change into protective clothing first.”

Ming Yao glanced at the small fat cat on the man’s legs.@@novelbin@@

Tsk tsk, she had not expected Meatball to have such high status in Imperial Garden!

Unlike the other two, she did not change into protective clothing. Seeing this, Steward Zhong frowned, “Gu Fuzhen, Little Snowball can be quite aggressive towards strangers. Are you sure you don’t want to wear protective clothing?”

Ming Yao paused, then realizing the name on the resume she submitted was Gu Fuzhen, she nodded, “No need to change.”

If Meatball dared to scratch her, she would stew it for soup tomorrow!

After the other two had changed into protective clothing, they each tried to pick up Little Snowball and hold it in their arms.

Before they could get close, Little Snowball bared its teeth and made hissing sounds of resistance.

One of the girls, who really wanted the job, ignored Little Snowball’s ferocity and reached out to forcibly embrace it. As soon as she touched it, she got fiercely scratched.

Fortunately, she was wearing protective clothing; otherwise, her arm would definitely have been injured.

Steward Zhong sighed, “You two have been eliminated.”

The two women were quite dejected and disappointed.

Steward Zhong looked at Ming Yao, “It’s your turn.”

Ming Yao glanced at Meatball, which had jumped onto the back of the sofa, its blue eyes glaring fiercely at her. She walked over and reached out her hand towards it, lowering her voice as she commanded, “Come here.”

The man who was reading the documents heard the woman’s words, light and breezy as if laced with a hint of command. He lifted his dark eyes and looked over at her.
