While in a meeting with Uncle Feng, Hou Yi was interrupted by his mobile ringing.? As he picked up his phone, he realised it as James calling, and on answering he said "James, How can I help you."

"Apologise for disrupting you Yi but is it possible for me to come and see you for some advice.? I am at reception in your office building and they have threatened to have me thrown out."

"James, just wait a few minutes. I will get my assistant to come down to get you."? Hou Yi ended the call, and quickly arranged with Assistant Wang to bring James up to his office.

Turning back, Hou Yi said "Apologise Uncle Feng, that was my brother-in-law James.? He will be helpful with the remaining issue we have to deal with, as he has just completed his nursing degree in Australia.? While I was in the US, I found out there are troubles with some of the hospitals that the American division has invested in.? The problem was the technical aspects went over everyone's head.? Hopefully James can explain it to us."

"I did not realise he was here.? Just for a visit post completing his course?"

"No.? You knew he married Yao Tan's daughter Alecia."

"That little princess."

"Well that princess when James was here just after Anna was injured blackmailed her father to allow them to marry. Plus, you know she is …"

"A very smart investor. I know. You know for the purposes of protecting Hou Enterprises I see your market trades, and I know that for almost twelve months you have been helping her trade on the stock market. You make good money trading on the market, but she is better,"

While they were waiting, they continued going through some paperwork on other matters.

Meanwhile, at reception, once he hung up from Hou Yi James turned to the receptionist who said "Sir, you have three minutes to leave the building or Security will escort you out. People cannot simple come here and demand to see our CEO."

"Miss, I am not just anyone. I was speaking to your CEO just then and he indicated that his assistant is coming down."

"Stop lying, now get out of this building, or I will call the police."

James moved away thinking that arguing with the receptionist was not a good idea. As he moved towards a waiting area, out of the corner of his eye he saw the elevator doors opening and someone moving quickly to the reception desk. He could not hear what was being said, but the look of shock on the receptionist as he spoke said that this was possibly Hou Yi' assistant.

Once being pointed to, the man who came out of the elevator headed over to James, and said in English "Mr Jones, my apologise. I am Assistant Wang. CEO Hou has asked if you could come with me and I will show you up to his office. Please follow me."

Following Assistant Wang, within a couple of minutes James was being shown into Hou YI's office. Hou Yi quickly said "Come in James. This is the Vice-CEO of Hou Enterprises Ji Feng, but your sister and I call him Uncle Feng."

"Apologise Yi, I did not know you were in a meeting; I just came to ask for some help."

"You are looking for some work, given Alecia has started working at XF International?"

"Yes, I just wanted some help to contact a hospital or two to see if they had work for a qualified nurse."

"We were just talking, and there might be something you could do here."

"I would not want to impose."

"Sit James," and Hou Yi pointed to another chair. "We actually need someone to help us who understands the medical field. Our American division has invested in hospitals, and while we understand the business side, the medical aspects are over our heads.? Would you be willing to do a few weeks work to review the report I have, explain things to us here and help get things in order for the senior staff members that will have oversight here?"

"You are not just helping me because I am your brother-in-law."

"James, I am not that much of an idiot. It would be easier for me to make a call to one of the hospital's in town that have VIP areas who would love a nurse such as yourself. At least coming here for a few weeks, you can work out what you want, and take your time before rushing into taking a job for the sake of having a job."

"If you are sure?"

"James, Yi here told me about your background. Any help is appreciated. While we keep an eye over various divisions, we let the expert staff run them rather than micro-managing them as it does not work. The issue is, we have generalist knowledge and need the help. Do not think it is patronising. We had been talking a couple of weeks ago in getting an outside expert in. Take the opportunity and get some corporate experience behind you before following your career."

After pausing for a few seconds James said "I do not think I can pass it up, but before I say yes permanently I should ask my wife. But I am happy to help you out today. What is the issue?"
