Chu Yang: We're Not on the Same Page Yet Liu Ruyan: I'm Not That Kind of Person

Shen Yuan glanced sideways at Chu Yang and blinked.

Brother, when I kick her out later, you follow her!

Make sure to confirm her location.

I'm going to launch a sneak attack!

She is a female protagonist after all, so beating her up will yield rewards.

Chu Yang: "..."

Yuanzi, just say what you want to say directly.

I can't understand the look in your eyes.

We aren't close enough to read each other's minds yet!

Liu Ruyan stood frozen in place.

He... he fired me?

And he wants to sue me?

"No, President Shen!"

Liu Ruyan hurriedly cried out, "Even though I made a mistake, I have been working very hard!"

"You work hard, but you keep making mistakes. That just proves you're blindly putting in effort for nothing!"

Shen Yuan said disdainfully.

"No, President Shen, you can't!"

Liu Ruyan let out a scream, tears streaming down her face. "I was just careless! I already apologized, and I can pay for it!"

"How can you be so cold and ruthless?"

Liu Ruyan said while sobbing.

"My Shen Group is not a charity, nor is it a place for a fool like you to play house!"

"Your so-called carelessness cost over ten million!"

"Can your apology restore the porcelain vase?"

Shen Yuan sneered. "Could you afford it even with a hundred years of your salary?"

"Special Assistant Lin, take her to settle her salary right now!"

"Everything will be handled according to labor laws. No severance pay is required because she committed a gross fault."

"Now, immediately, right this instant!"

Shen Yuan said.

"Miss Liu, please!"

Special Assistant Lin stepped forward, his attitude still somewhat polite. "Do you really want me to call security to drag you away?"

Liu Ruyan felt as if all her strength had been drained.

Weeping, amidst gazes of shock, dead silence, sympathy, sorrow, and schadenfreude...

She was taken away by Special Assistant Lin.

She was completely devastated.

Why?

What about the domineering CEO's classic line... 'Woman, you have piqued my interest'?

Weren't I supposed to pay off the debt with myself?

Why did it turn out like this?

Shen Yuan expressionlessly straightened his clothes and turned to walk up to Chu Yang.

"You bunch of slackers..."

"I don't mind you slacking off, but on one condition... get your jobs done properly!"

"Let me introduce someone!"

"Chu Yang!"

"Our company's Vice President. He was parachuted in and holds a nominal title!"

Shen Yuan smiled faintly. "Although he won't be involved in much, once he does get involved..."

"His orders are my orders!"

"Everything he wants to do is what I want to do!"

"Human Resources, send out a notice about this!"

"I don't want any blind fools bothering my little brother who went missing when we were kids!"

Shen Yuan's mouth curled up into a smirk. "The Shen family's biological brother!"

Instantly, the crowd was in an uproar.

Biological brother?

President Shen has a brother?

We only heard he had a sister!

Many girls' eyes instantly lit up.

President Shen is too cold.

We want to get close to him, but he only talks about work with us.

Then this biological brother who has been missing since childhood... definitely hasn't experienced a honey trap before.

Perhaps... marrying into a wealthy family starts right now.

Shen Yuan tilted his head at Chu Yang and blinked.

Chu Yang: "..."

You really didn't need to push me to the front.

"Well..."

Walking back to the office, Shen Yuan smiled slightly. "Listen to me, hand in hand, walk with me..."

"You..."

Chu Yang immediately started cursing. "Can you be normal?"

"The system told me that Liu Ruyan is the Child of Destiny!"

Shen Yuan smiled brightly.

"Then why did you drive her away?"

Chu Yang was stunned. "Aren't there villain points? You should hit her, screw her, play with her!"

"With a protagonist like this, it's better for me not to get too close!"

Shen Yuan said with a smile. "So it's time for you to step up."

"Get lost. I don't want to go near a woman like that!" Chu Yang said.

"NO, NO, NO!"

Shen Yuan extended his index finger and wagged it gently. "You can infiltrate her inner circle."

At the very least, an Immortal Emperor reborn in front of Liu Ruyan shouldn't have his intelligence lowered.

But if his intelligence does drop...

I promise I will strike without mercy.

Chu Yang is my beloved friend, my brother!

I promise I'll secretly poison him, then stab him to death with a single strike, letting him die without any pain.

"What are you trying to do?"

Chu Yang gritted his teeth.

Shen Yuan smiled faintly. "Like this, like that."

Chu Yang: "..."

"Fine!"

Chu Yang took a deep breath. "For the villain points, I'll endure it!"

Hmph!

Chu Yang turned around and walked away proudly.

"Where the hell are you going? I haven't given you the car keys yet!"

Shen Yuan patted his pockets and tossed the keys over.

Without turning his head, Chu Yang caught them and waved his hand vigorously. "Hurry up!"

He headed straight downstairs.

Shen Yuan returned to his office, then rummaged around for a long time...

Finally, he found a golf club.

He slung the golf club over his shoulder and went downstairs.

Outside the Shen Group building...

Liu Ruyan walked out, completely devastated.

"Whew!!"

With his hands in his pockets, Chu Yang whistled, looking every bit the playboy. "Hey, beauty!"

Liu Ruyan: "..."

Get lost, you smelly loser.

"Beautiful Liu Ruyan."

Chu Yang whistled. "You were taken away too quickly just now. You probably don't know who I am, do you?"

"Who are you?"

Liu Ruyan snapped out of her daze and asked.

Chu Yang snapped his fingers. "My name is Chu Yang, but you can also call me Shen Yang..."

"I am Shen Yuan's biological brother!"

"I was just brought back!"

"After you left, Shen Yuan announced that I am the company's Vice President!"

"As for why..."

"Because half of the inheritance belongs to me!"

"He has to give me my share!"

"Even if he doesn't want to give me this Vice President position, he has to hold his nose and do it!"

Chu Yang reached out his hand and made a gentlemanly gesture. "Beauty, do we have a chance to chat?"

Liu Ruyan's eyes lit up.

He's actually the Vice President?

Great!

Even without Shen Yuan, there's still Chu Yang!

I knew it! My strong yet fragile persona would definitely move a domineering CEO.

"Mhm!"

Liu Ruyan sobbed softly, "Are you going to help me?"

Chu Yang smiled brightly. "Yes, I want to help you!"

"But just now..." Liu Ruyan pouted, feeling a little wronged.

Chu Yang's face darkened.

Damn it, can't you use your brain?

I already said I was just brought back!

"Miss Liu."

Chu Yang took a deep breath, forcing his expression to return to normal.

His tone was 'gentle,' though he spoke through gritted teeth. "I went missing when I was a child!"

"I was just brought back!"

"Although I have the right to inherit the estate and the right to be Vice President!"

"After all, I just got back, and my foundation is unstable!"

"Right now, I don't have the power to face Shen Yuan head-on!"

"So, I could only watch!"

Chu Yang clenched his fists. "Now, I came to find you, Miss Liu, because I also need your help!"

"Oh!"

Liu Ruyan pouted. "I understand, I'm sorry!"

"It's fine!"

Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss Liu, let's go to the underground parking lot. Get in my car first!"

"We can discuss the details thoroughly, how about it?"

Chu Yang put on a flippant expression.

Liu Ruyan blushed. "I'm not an easy girl, you know!"

Chu Yang nearly choked on his own spit.

What the hell was going through this woman's head?

She claims she's not an easy girl, but once she lets loose, she turns into an absolute animal, right?
