Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The elevator had finally arrived.
What he didn't know was that quite a few employees of the Su Group were still waiting outside for them.
The employees in the elevator said, "Boss Su, Young Master Lin, you go first, please."
"Okay, thank you."
Lin Xuan carried Su Hua out of the elevator in his arms.
Swish!
As soon as Lin Xuan and Su Hua appeared, countless eyes landed on them.
Lin Xuan looked at the dozens of employees in the first-floor lobby.
And the number was still continuously increasing!
Lin Xuan: !!!
So many people.
Huo Shen had just returned from outside the company and happened to hear some employees mentioning that Su Hua was on the first floor.
His eyes lit up.
It was Hua'er.
Speaking of which, ever since Lin Xuan was subjected to that massive cyberbullying incident, he hadn't seen Hua'er.
Huo Shen strode into the company, his gaze looking around, trying to find Su Hua's figure.
Finally.
He saw Su Hua.
However, the Su Hua he saw was in Lin Xuan's arms, and her face still carried traces of passion.
Huo Shen's expression stiffened.
They were leaving from the company, which meant that in the office, they had...
Damn it!
How could Lin Xuan do that kind of thing with Hua in the office?
Huo Shen clenched his fists tightly.
Looking at so many people, Lin Xuan felt endless regret.
It seemed that most of the people in the Su Group were working overtime today. If he had known earlier, he and Hua would have gone back later...
Lin Xuan was originally listless, but upon seeing Huo Shen's figure, he immediately perked up.
Huo Shen!
Running into the man who coveted Hua, he wouldn't feel comfortable if he didn't find an opportunity to provoke him.
Lin Xuan suddenly felt that it wasn't so unacceptable to be seen by so many people carrying Hua out of the company today.
Lin Xuan carried Su Hua and strode over to Huo Shen.
"President Huo," Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow. "Long time no see."
Huo Shen forced an ugly smile onto his face. Looking at their intimate posture, especially the ambiguous red marks covering Su Hua's neck, Huo Shen could barely maintain his facial expression.
"Long time no see." These words were practically squeezed out from between Huo Shen's teeth.
Lin Xuan showed an embarrassed smile. "President Huo, I'm sorry. I'm holding Hua right now, so it's not convenient for me to shake hands with you."
Huo Shen: ...
You're flattering yourself.
Who cares about shaking hands with you?
Lin Xuan was absolutely, positively provoking him.
The only thing he could do was try his best to stay calm; he couldn't let Lin Xuan have the satisfaction.
Huo Shen took a deep breath.
He smiled and said gently, "It's fine. We've met quite a few times already, and Boss Su and I have known each other since we were kids. As Boss Su's boyfriend, there's no need for us to be strangers."
"Makes sense." Lin Xuan nodded. "However, President Huo, I'd like to correct you on one thing. Although you and Hua met when you were kids, you two aren't that familiar with each other. When I asked Hua about you before, she looked confused and couldn't really remember you."
"So, you and Hua don't have that great of a relationship. If we should be strangers, we still need to be strangers."
"President Huo, wouldn't you agree?" Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow at Huo Shen.
Huo Shen's expression was somewhat stiff.
"Yes," he said, forcing a twitch of his lips.
The Su Group employees were all watching them with great relish.
"President Huo, Hua is a bit tired after all that tossing around. I'll take her back to rest first. We can catch up later when we have time," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
"Alright."
Huo Shen gritted his teeth.
Lin Xuan carried Su Hua and walked out of the Su Group building in a great mood.
Looking at the bright smile on Lin Xuan's face, Huo Shen's fists suddenly clenched.
He really wanted to tear off Lin Xuan's smug face.
But there was nothing he could do to Lin Xuan right now.
He could only wait for an opportunity.
As long as he found that person, he could initiate his plan to snatch Hua'er away.
When the time came, he would see how this Lin Xuan could still be so smug!
As soon as Lin Xuan left, the Su Group employees couldn't help but whisper and discuss among themselves.
"Did you see that? When Boss Su first came to the company today, she didn't have so many marks on her neck. Now her neck is densely covered with them. Also, the charm on Boss Su's face and the unfaded passion in her eyes... I guarantee that Boss Su and Young Master Lin definitely just did something indescribable. Look, Boss Su can't even walk steadily."
"That's right, that's right! Office play! Just thinking about it makes me excited. Boss Su looks so cold and aloof on the outside, I didn't expect her to pull something like this. Sure enough, once a woman falls in love with a man she likes, she easily becomes love-struck."
"I suspect Boss Su was in a bad mood today, so Young Master Lin coaxed Boss Su into bed. It's too, too sweet."
"Yes, exactly! I feel like it's so sweet that I'm about to get diabetes. Boss Su and Young Master Lin must be locked together forever! If the Civil Affairs Bureau knows what's good for it, it should walk over here itself."
Hearing these employees' conversations, President Li and President Wang also suddenly realized what had happened.
No wonder when they went to report their work to Boss Su more than an hour before getting off work, Jiang Qing stopped them.
President Wang and President Li felt a lingering sense of fear.
Thank goodness Secretary Jiang stopped them. If she hadn't, and they had knocked on the door and interrupted Boss Su and Young Master Lin's good time, Boss Su probably wouldn't have spared them.
Jiang Qing happened to arrive on the first floor.
President Wang and President Li walked up to her and sincerely thanked her, "Secretary Jiang, thank you for the reminder today."
Secretary Jiang smiled. "No problem, it's what I ought to do. You don't need to thank me."
She had stopped them at the time for her own sake as well.
Boss Su was already somewhat suspicious of her because of that novel about the female secretary.
If she didn't stop the people who were about to interrupt her and Young Master Lin, she would be finished.
"Secretary Jiang, if there are similar situations in the future when we come to see Boss Su, we hope you can continue to remind us," President Wang said.
Secretary Jiang readily agreed, "Rest assured, I will definitely remind you."
Secretary Jiang checked the time and said, "President Wang, President Li, I have some things to do, so I'll be leaving first."
She needed to go find a man.
No, to be precise, it was to hire a man to be her boyfriend, and he needed to be a bit older and have a rougher appearance.
Otherwise, if he was a young man similar in type to Young Master Lin, Boss Su would definitely overthink it.
She was going to use this rented boyfriend to completely dispel Boss Su's suspicions, so she wouldn't let her imagination run wild.
"Alright then, Secretary Jiang, go ahead with your business," President Wang said with a nod.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years.

saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
