"Lu Tianxing, you... what are you trying to do, I... I’m telling you, if you dare to do anything to , you’ll be finished."
Bai Zhiqing stamred a bit, her pretty face flushed red. She already anticipated what was about to happen.
"Hehe, what I want to do, my dear wife, don’t you know? Of course, it’s for the future of our country, to create the next generation. You said you’ve been tempting just now, should we try out a new high-difficulty position, like the Golden Rooster Stands Alone? Sounds pretty good. Then it’s settled." Lu Tianxing chuckled.
"You dare... mmm... mmm..."
Before Bai Zhiqing could finish her sentence, Lu Tianxing could no longer contain the fire in his heart. He lowered his head and kissed Bai Zhiqing’s red lips...
...
anwhile, far away in Modu, Bai’s Group was brightly lit, with lights shining through every corner, leaving no dark spots untouched.
The Unrivaled Guards, clad in black with enchanting figures, patrolled back and forth in Bai’s Group Building. A large number of high-definition infrared caras were installed in all major passageways, closely monitoring everything around. Bai’s Group was turned into an impenetrable fortress, not even a fly could get in.
Bai’s Group, Sales Departnt.
Lin Qianru sat in her office, her face grave as she stared at the folder in front of her. Her face showed a trace of fatigue and exhaustion, yet she remained vigilant, carefully reading the information about Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group of the Yang Family. This ti, Bai’s Group intended to annex Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group, and as a main force, she must thoroughly understand these two groups’ information, so as to find their weakest point and launch a fatal attack, capturing both Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group in one fell swoop.
As ti ticked by, the entire office was quiet, with only the sound of Lin Qianru flipping through docunts.
"Phew."
When the clock hit 10:30, Lin Qianru finally put down the folder in her hand, took a deep breath, raised her hand to rub her temples, stood up, and pulled open the curtains.
Gazing at the brightly lit world outside, Lin Qianru took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes. She was really worried about Lu Tianxing’s safety. Although today Lin Yafei didn’t ntion anything about Lu Tianxing’s situation in Jiangnan when instructing them to deal with Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group, she could guess that sothing must have happened to Lu Tianxing in Jiangnan.
If it were not so, as the chairman of Lin Group, Lin Yafei couldn’t possibly not know that recklessly acting against Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group would have consequences if it failed. But now, Lin Yafei resolutely took action, even secretly leaving Bai’s Group tonight to go to Jiangnan. This alone was enough to show that Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing must have encountered trouble in Jiangnan. Otherwise, Lin Yafei wouldn’t have left Modu, left Bai’s Group at such a crucial ti.
She wanted to call Lu Tianxing to ask about his well-being, but Lin Qianru restrained herself in the end. She was Lu Tianxing’s woman, and now that Lu Tianxing was in a predicant, she must not add to his troubles. Her only role now was to help relieve the pressure from Jiangnan for Lu Tianxing, capturing Jiang Feng Group and Dingtian Group in one stroke.
Taking another deep breath, Lin Qianru turned around and sat back down in her chair, intending to pick up the docunts on the desk and continue reading.
"Knock~""Knock~""Knock~"
At this mont, a series of crisp knocks sounded.
Hearing the knock, Lin Qianru put down the docunt in her hand and slowly said, "Co in."
As soon as she finished speaking, the office door was pushed open from the outside, and Secretary Lan, dressed in an office lady uniform, walked in.
Lan Xin looked the sa as ever, with a baby face and a standard young girl appearance, looking like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
At this mont, Lan Xin walked in holding a steaming cup of coffee, "President Lin, you haven’t rested all day, have a cup of coffee first!"
Saying this, Lan Xin slowly placed the coffee from the tray in front of Lin Qianru.
"Thank you, Secretary Lan."
Slling the coffee, Lin Qianru felt a surge of energy and nodded to Lan Xin.
"President Lin, your complexion looks a bit fatigued. Please take care of your health. It’s getting late, maybe you should rest early!" Lan Xin looked at Lin Qianru’s weary face and said with a hint of concern.
"I’m fine."
Hearing Lan Xin’s words, Lin Qianru shook her head and said, "Secretary Lan, you should head back early too! You’ve been busy all day today as well."
Lan Xin hesitated for a mont before speaking: "I... I’d better stay at the company and be with President Lin and the others! After all, I’m quite familiar with the company’s affairs. If you run into any issues and need sothing, you can find easily."
"That’s fine too."
Lin Qianru nodded. If there’s anyone who is most familiar with the affairs of Bai’s Group, it would undoubtedly be Lan Xin, the chairman’s secretary. With Lan Xin at Bai’s Group, they indeed have much less to worry about. Moreover, Lan Xin’s capabilities in finance are considerable; otherwise, she wouldn’t have beco Bai Zhiqing’s personal secretary. Before eting Lu Tianxing, Bai Zhiqing had very high and strict standards for selecting people. Lan Xin’s ability to beco Bai Zhiqing’s secretary speaks for itself.
"Unless President Lin has other matters, I’ll take my leave first."
Saying this, Lan Xin turned and walked toward the door.
"Secretary Lan, wait a mont."
Lin Qianru suddenly called out to Lan Xin, who was about to leave, "Secretary Lan, have you been preoccupied these days? It seems like you’ve been distracted lately. Is there sothing on your mind? If I can help, please tell , and I will assist you."
Upon hearing Lin Qianru’s words, Lan Xin was slightly taken aback. Unbidden, the image of Lu Tianxing appeared in her mind. Her distraction these past few days was entirely due to Lu Tianxing. Ever since she overheard Xue Man and Lin Qianru discussing Lu Tianxing having an accident in Jiangnan, she had been worried about his safety, often recalling their banter since they t.
She wasn’t sure when it happened, but she realized she might have started to fall for this carefree, sowhat roguish man. Perhaps it was after he beca Bai Zhiqing’s man that she wanted to pay attention to him, curious about why he garnered Bai Zhiqing’s favor. Or maybe it was after Lu Tianxing pretended to be her boyfriend that one ti, or perhaps even another ti...
"Secretary Lan, what’s wrong, Secretary Lan...?"
Lost in thought, Lan Xin was suddenly brought back to reality by a crisp voice. She imdiately saw Lin Qianru looking at her with concern.
"Secretary Lan, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell? Perhaps you should go back and rest for a bit," Lin Qianru asked with concern.
Lan Xin shook her head and said, "President Lin, thank you for your concern. I’m really fine. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now—I still need to bring coffee to Mr. Shen and President Luan! Oh, President Lin, the company cafeteria is preparing late-night snacks. Should I bring so to your office?"
"No need, I’ll head to the cafeteria to eat later," Lin Qianru shook her head and said.
"Alright then, President Lin, I’ll be leaving now."
Saying this, Lan Xin hurriedly walked out. Being stared at by Lin Qianru, she felt like a thief caught in the act. After all, Lu Tianxing was also Lin Qianru’s man.
Watching Lan Xin close the door and leave, a self-mocking smile appeared on Lin Qianru’s lips as she murmured softly to herself, "Lu Tianxing, oh Lu Tianxing, I really want to see how you’ll handle having entangled with so many won in the end."
Although Lan Xin hadn’t shown much just now, Lin Qianru was all too familiar with that dazed expression of hers. There was a ti when she missed Lu Tianxing, and wasn’t her expression the sa then?
The reason why Lin Qianru was so convinced Lan Xin’s distraction was due to Lu Tianxing and not so other man was because, ever since she and Xue Man returned to Modu and to Bai’s Group, Lan Xin had overheard her and Xue Man talking about the troubles Lu Tianxing encountered in Jiangnan. From that point on, Lan Xin beca sowhat absent-minded. If this had nothing to do with Lu Tianxing, Lin Qianru wouldn’t believe it, as such coincidences don’t exist in the world.
"Sigh..."
Lin Qianru sighed softly but didn’t say anything further or reveal anything. What good would it do to expose Lan Xin’s feelings for Lu Tianxing? Strictly speaking, she’s just a third party herself, so what right does she have to talk about Lan Xin? She just hoped that ultimately, no one would get hurt, whether it be Bai Zhiqing or Lan Xin, which is sothing she didn’t want to see.
After leaving Lin Qianru’s office, Lan Xin felt as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. She patted her chest lightly and murmured softly, "Good thing President Lin didn’t notice, I almost slipped up. Lu Tianxing, you damned scoundrel, rascal, you better not let anything happen to you, or I won’t let you off, I’ll definitely tell Mr. Bai about how you flirted with , making sure you won’t rest in peace even after you’re dead. Bah, bah, Lan Xin, how can you say such inauspicious words? But on another note, that Lu Tianxing is indeed a scourge; as the saying goes, ’the good die young, the wicked live on,’ so that bastard will probably be fine..."
After saying this, Lan Xin, feeling like a thief, looked around carefully. Once she realized no one was around, she sighed in relief and stepped into the elevator in her high heels.
