Born to be Affable, Join Us at the Su Group

Tang Wenyu was terrified, devastated, and desperate.

She couldn't understand why the world was so cruel to her.

When she was young, she fell in love with a man, but after he got her pregnant, he disappeared without a trace.

He left behind only a useless token with the character "War" inscribed on it.

Because of her pregnancy out of wedlock, she was expelled from the Tang family.

Alone with her swollen belly, she drifted through Jiang City, going from a wealthy young lady to a beggar on the streets.

It wasn't until after she gave birth to her daughter that life regained some hope.

For her daughter's sake.

She washed dishes, worked as a cleaner, assembled screws in factories.

Year after year, she raised her daughter this way.

They saved up a little money and rented a tiny shop space the size of a bathroom to live in.

They pinched every penny and slowly built up their savings.

Tang Wenyu's greatest wish was to have a home of her own for her and her daughter.

But...

She finally got a job at a company, only to be fired.

The reason given was that she always had to take time off to care for her child.

And now, Miss Su had set her sights on their only home, and even threatened to kill her entire family.

Why?

Why was the world so malicious towards her?

If she hadn't gotten involved with that man back then, would her life have taken a different path?

Years of pent-up grievances finally caused Tang Wenyu to break down crying in public.

At that moment.

A gentle voice spoke up.

As warm as a spring breeze.

"Ms. Tang, I believe you dropped this."

Tang Wenyu's whole body trembled. She raised her head fearfully, her eyes red and swollen as she looked up.

There she saw.

A handsome man with a gentle smile, crouching down with his hand extended. In his palm lay the token that scoundrel had left her to keep all those years ago.

"Th-thank you..."

Tang Wenyu carefully reached out to take it, then quietly thanked Qin Luo.

This person didn't seem like a bad guy, so why was he working for Miss Su?

Perhaps... he was being threatened?

Seeing that Tang Wenyu was willing to speak, Qin Luo then turned to look at the daughter lying beside her. He gently extended his hand.

Under the girl's somewhat fearful gaze, he patted the little girl's head and said, "Your daughter is very well-behaved. When you were in danger, she mustered up the courage to protect you."

"I actually really like children too... Oh, that's right."

As Qin Luo said this, a smile appeared on his face. He extended the back of his hand towards the little girl, then flipped it over.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a rainbow-colored lollipop appeared as if by magic.

"Wow!"

The little girl's eyes widened in delight.

She reached out to tug at her mother's clothes, whispering, "Mommy... this big brother is so amazing..."

Tang Wenyu also gradually lowered her guard due to Qin Luo's gentle demeanor.

Qin Luo seized the opportunity and handed the lollipop to the little girl, smiling, "Little one, what's your name?"

The girl took the lollipop and looked at Qin Luo happily, "My name is Doudou."

Qin Luo smiled, "Doudou, what a lovely name."

"Well, Doudou, it's not very nice to let your mommy keep kneeling on the ground, is it? Why don't we have your mommy stand up?"

"My colleagues and I don't mean you any harm."

"In fact, you could say we're here to help you."

As he spoke, he looked at Tang Wenyu. Seeing her hesitant expression, he extended his hand and smiled, "Ms. Tang, you shouldn't stay on the ground for too long or you might catch a cold. Let's stand up and talk."

His gaze was sincere as he said, "Trust me."

Doudou also looked at Tang Wenyu and said in her sweet voice, "Mommy, this big brother is a good person."

Hearing this.

Tang Wenyu finally bit her lip lightly and, keeping her head down, took Qin Luo's hand to stand up.

If Miss Su really meant to harm me and Doudou, she probably would have done so already.

Why bother having her subordinate explain so patiently?

That's right... it seems there must be some misunderstanding. I've been overthinking things...

And as this thought crossed Tang Wenyu's mind.

A system prompt also arrived

[Congratulations, host has completed the mission!]

[Obtained: Natural Affinity (Anyone will feel that the host is kind and a good person) Note: Once standing together with the antagonist, it will further highlight the antagonist's villainous aura]

In an instant.

A natural aura of affability suddenly emanated from Qin Luo.

The gazes of Tang Wenyu and Doudou towards Qin Luo also gradually became more at ease.

In contrast, Su Muwan standing behind Qin Luo felt as if a layer of gloomy malice was floating around her.

Making the two of them very afraid.

With the situation resolved.

Qin Luo retreated to Su Muwan's side and whispered, "Miss, I'll leave the rest to you."

Su Muwan was left dumbfounded by Qin Luo's series of actions.

Wait!

Is this the kind of protagonist treatment I read about in novels?

No way! How is this fair?

More importantly, why is this guy so skilled at comforting children and married women?

And where did that lollipop come from? You know magic tricks too??

She had many questions she wanted to ask, but Su Muwan knew now wasn't the time.

So she stepped forward with a smile and greeted them, "Hello."

Tang Wenyu's face tensed up, and she quickly hugged her daughter tightly, saying, "M-Miss Su."

Come on! Why so nervous when it's my turn!

Su Muwan was crying on the inside. I'm actually a good person too!

On the surface, she smiled gently and said, "There's no need to be so formal. I bear you no ill will. This acquisition reaching your property was truly an accident."

"As an apology, Ms. Tang, please feel free to choose any house in Jiang City for yourself."

Tang Wenyu, who had been waiting to hear what Su Muwan would say, was suddenly shocked.

She looked at Su Muwan in disbelief and exclaimed, "What??"

"You want to give me a... a house?!"

"No! I can't accept that! I'll just rent another place myself. I can't take such compensation!"

Tang Wenyu frantically waved her hands in refusal, stumbling over her words. Although she wanted to have her own home, she had never thought of relying on others for it.

Especially not in a situation where she was merely being evicted, and then someone directly compensated her with a house.

"No, it's just a house. This young lady can certainly afford to give one away," Su Muwan also waved her hands.

Come on, just hurry up and accept it!

I'm really afraid you'll end up living in a doghouse otherwise!

"No, Miss Su, I can't accept it."

"You must take it!"

"I won't!"

"You will!"

"I won't!"

"You...!!"

Su Muwan was left speechless. Do people these days not even want free houses anymore?

Thud!

Seeing Su Muwan fall silent, Tang Wenyu thought she had angered her.

So she immediately knelt on the ground in fear, trembling as she said, "M-Miss Su, I really can't accept it... This... This house is far too valuable... I wouldn't dare to live in it..."

Doudou looked at Su Muwan with frightened eyes, "Big sister... please don't kill my mommy..."

Great! We're back to square one!

Su Muwan's mouth twitched as she rubbed her temples in exasperation.

Wait, when did I ever say I was going to kill you?

Hold on, when has this young lady ever killed anyone?

Seriously, why is there such a huge difference between me and Qin Luo?

Thinking of this, Su Muwan glared at Qin Luo and jerked her chin at him [You do it!!]

Qin Luo's mouth twitched. So now she's taking out her frustration on me because she's embarrassed?

This young miss is really hard to serve.

Thinking this.

Qin Luo nodded and then walked over to Tang Wenyu and her daughter.

He crouched down and smiled, "My young miss is actually a good person, just a bit stubborn."

"How about this, since Ms. Tang is unwilling to accept the house."

"Let's try a different form of compensation..."

Under Tang Wenyu's slightly dazed expression, Qin Luo extended his hand and smiled, "Why don't you come work for our Su Corporation?"

Tang Wenyu: !!

In the sunlight.

Qin Luo's smile and voice were firmly etched into Tang Wenyu's heart.

Is this... the warmth of humanity?

A tear rolled down from the corner of Tang Wenyu's eye.

She took Qin Luo's hand and nodded with a choked voice, "Alright."

Behind them.

(The antagonist is unaffected by the Natural Affinity skill) Su Muwan: →_→

She stared speechlessly at Tang Wenyu, whose attitude had suddenly changed completely.

Wait a minute!

How is this fair? Why is her attitude towards us so drastically different?
