540: Chapter 536: Can I Stay?
(First Update!) 540: Chapter 536: Can I Stay?
(First Update!) Back in Bin City, Lin Tian and Shangguan Xin once worked together in the sales departnt of Tianzi Group.
She was astute and efficient, a true epito of a white-collar beauty.
During that ti, they even went to Flying Emperor Agency to collect a debt.
However, Shangguan Xin was ultimately a woman; if he hadn’t been with her, she could have fallen into the clutches of Hong Jinglong and others from the Hengling Gang.
Unexpectedly, he t her again in Liiu Yuan City.
And it seed that Shangguan Xin was in trouble.
Today, Shangguan Xin was wearing a knee-length OL suit skirt, with a black blazer that was extrely proper.
Moreover, her fair, goose-egg face featured eyebrows like distant mountains, a nose as exquisite as jade, cherry lips as striking as rubies, and a pair of expressive beautiful eyes.
Her black hair was tied up high, revealing her fair and slender neck.
She radiated charm from every inch!
“Boss ng, I’m off work now.
If you need anything, please discuss it with Manager Yun at our lobby.
He can help you with your issues!
Please step aside, I need to go ho!”
Blocked by the corpulent Boss ng, with his bulging belly, Shangguan Xin showed a helpless look and her pretty face turned slightly frosty as she patiently frowned and said.
“Right, right, right…
you’re off work now, I shouldn’t call you Manager Shangguan, but Miss Xinxin!
It’s my mistake…”
Boss ng, holding a wine glass in one hand and with an apologetic look on his face, said sincerely, “So, Miss Xinxin, since you’re off work now and it’s not working hours, could you perhaps join for a few drinks in the private room over there?
There are a few bosses from Liiu Yuan City there; going over to toast a few drinks with them would be a chance for everyone to get to know each other!”
Although he said this, the sinister intent on Boss ng’s face grew even stronger.
Shangguan Xin’s exquisite and charming figure nearly drove him to pounce on her right there.
“Sorry, I don’t drink!
Boss ng, please let through!”
Shangguan Xin faced those beady eyes that seed to strip her with their gaze, feeling a mix of disgust and helplessness, but still she replied with patience.
The flesh on Boss ng’s face shook as his expression turned darker, “Miss Xinxin, are you refusing to give face?”
“Sorry!”
Shangguan Xin gritted her teeth, then coldly spoke and tried to walk around him to leave.
“Stupid bitch, you really don’t know what’s good for you!
Offering you to drink with us is giving you face!”
At this mont, Boss ng lost his temper, and his chubby hand reached out to grab Shangguan Xin.
But before Boss ng’s fat hand could touch her, it was already restrained by another hand.
When Boss ng saw his hand suddenly grabbed, he turned around sharply and, seeing that it was a seemingly slender youth, he imdiately beca enraged, “Kid, are you courting death?
Let go!
My lady and I are having a spat, what the fuck are you interfering with?”
However, Lin Tian ignored Boss ng’s words and turned to Shangguan Xin, “Sister Xin, what’s happening?”
Lin Tian’s sudden appearance also took Shangguan Xin by surprise.
She didn’t expect to encounter him again in Liiu Yuan City after leaving Bin City.
Lin Tian gave her the impression of soone with strong skills, and his background was enigmatic.
“Lin Tian, what are you doing here?”
Shangguan Xin regained her composure and instinctively blurted out the question.
“I’m in Liiu Yuan City for so matters; I may leave tomorrow!”
Lin Tian said with a smile: “But Sister Xin, what’s happening here?”
“I…
I am now the lobby manager of Natural Corner Hotel!
Even though things were going well at Tianzi, there was an issue at ho, so I had to co back here and find work!”
Shangguan Xin briefly explained, then glanced at Boss ng with helplessness and said, “It’s just that now it’s my ti to clock out, and this Boss ng Lichun insists on having accompany him for a few drinks…”
Hearing this, Lin Tian imdiately understood the situation.
At first, Shangguan Xin took a leave of absence to go ho and ended up resigning, perhaps due to so special circumstances after she got there.
However, Lin Tian hadn’t expected Shangguan Xin’s ho to be in Liiu Yuan City.
At this mont, ng Lichun’s complexion darkened.
He had just ntioned arguing with his woman, and in the blink of an eye, he discovered that Lin Tian actually knew Shangguan Xin.
Sha and rage filled his face.
“Kid, are you fucking not letting go of my hand?
Are you looking for death?”
ng Lichun tried to pull his hand back several tis without success and couldn’t help but angrily warn.
Bang~
Lin Tian pushed the other man away, throwing him against the corridor wall.
ng Lichun’s corpulent body made a dull thud against the wall, and the glass he held in his hand shattered to the ground.
“Sister Xin, let’s go.
I’ll take you ho!”
After all, they were colleagues at Xu Tangge Company.
It was fate to et her here, and since it was getting late, Lin Tian thought it more appropriate to take her ho.
Shangguan Xin said thank you and, without paying any attention to ng Lichun, followed Lin Tian out of the hotel.
“You just wait, kid!
Unless you leave Liiu Yuan City!
And for that shitty watch of yours, just wait until Elder Zheng cos in a couple of days, I’ll have him fire you directly, what a piece of crap…”
From behind, ng Lichun’s curses could faintly be heard.
The two left the Natural Corner Hotel, hailed a taxi, and got in.
“Sister Xin, why did you end up working back here?
It seems like this isn’t an easy place to deal with!”
In the taxi, after Shangguan Xin inford the driver of the address, Lin Tian turned to her and asked.
“You get used to it.
If it really doesn’t work out, I can always just leave in a couple of days.
Anyway, with my experience at Tianzi, finding another job won’t be too hard!
Tianzi’s environnt is better, but my family really had no other choice.
We had to stay!”
Shangguan Xin revealed a bitter smile and then said to Lin Tian, “But what about you?
Why did you co to Liiu Yuan City?
And with such a big bag, did you just arrive?”
“No, I’ve been here for a day already.
I’m staying at the Natural Corner Hotel.
I’m just used to carrying a backpack!
I’m here on so business and will leave tomorrow!”
Lin Tian explained with a slight smile.
Of course, he wasn’t used to carrying a backpack.
It contained various important treasures that he could not easily part with.
Shangguan Xin nodded lightly, not asking any further.
Seeing that Shangguan Xin had nothing more to say, Lin Tian thought for a mont and then said, “Sister Xin, if you have any difficulties, you can tell , and I’ll see if there’s anything I can do to help!”
“Thank you!
But, I have gotten used to everything!”
Shangguan Xin shook her head slightly, and replied with a smile.
Soon, Lin Tian followed Shangguan Xin out of the taxi and into a rather dilapidated residential complex, full of old comrcial houses.
Shangguan Xin lived on the second floor of an old apartnt building, in a simple one-bedroom, one-living room flat, which was clean despite the simplicity.
“So this is where your ho is?
It’s got so age to it, but it’s pretty nice!”
Lin Tian looked around after walking in and then said with a smile, “Sister Xin, you have a good rest.
I should head back to the hotel now!”
As Lin Tian turned to leave, Shangguan Xin pursed her lips and said, “Lin Tian, could you stay with for a while?
Or could you stay over?
I’m a bit scared being alone.”
“Okay!”
Lin Tian turned back and saw Shangguan Xin, looking exhausted with a hint of lost helplessness, and let out a silent sigh before agreeing.
However, after Shangguan Xin brought over a cup of water, the two sat in silence on the couch.
Before long, Lin Tian turned to look and discovered that she had fallen asleep on the couch.
Exhaustion lingered on her delicate face, yet the look of bewildernt and helplessness had been replaced by an air of tranquility.
