Lu Chengwen froze for a mont: "Qi ishao? Let her in."
This ti, Qi ishao deliberately wore two pa
irs of underwear before coming to see Lu Chengwen.
Even she felt ashad.
It was so humiliating!
But if she didn't do it, it would be even more humiliating!
Every ti she left Lu Chengwen's office, she had to walk with her legs tightly clamped, head down, and take tiny steps straight to the supermarket to shop...
Lu Chengwen, this pervert—I'll kill him sooner or later!
After entering the office, she noticed that there weren't many people inside today.
Qi ishao felt sowhat relieved.
At the very least, when she has to take off... today, there won't be anyone watching her, which makes it slightly more bearable.
"Lu Chengwen, you..."
"Call President Lu."
Lu Chengwen sat in his boss chair, correcting her sternly.
Qi ishao was furious, but she knew this was the workplace, not the streets.
She had no choice but to take a deep breath: "President Lu, my family's young master said he has already reinvested seventy billion and transferred it into President Xu's account. Can we start construction now?"
Lu Chengwen said, "Start construction! Of course, we must start construction! But I have so matters to deal with today. You can discuss the construction details with Xue Jiao."
Qi ishao had known before coming in that Lu Chengwen wouldn't cooperate so easily.
As expected, he's kicking the ball elsewhere again. But at least there's been so progress—he's no longer blocking the construction.
"There's one more thing I want to make clear to you."
"Hmm, go ahead."
Lu Chengwen absentmindedly played with the items on his desk.
"Sister Shiyin..."
Lu Chengwen looked up at her.
"Can you let her go?"
Lu Chengwen stared at Qi ishao, unsure of what to say.
[This whole situation is completely chaotic. No one would believe it if I told them.]
[I never even had any designs on Luo Shiyin. Not only did I avoid her, but I also went out of my way to keep my distance from her—wishing I'd never see her again in my life.]
[But fate has a way of ssing things up, and now it's co to this. Asking to let go of Luo Shiyin now? That girl would completely break down.]
Qi ishao clenched her fists, deeply shocked in her heart.
This guy... was he really not the one who actively seduced Sister Shiyin?
Those so-called stories about accidentally consuming the Desire Elixir—were they actually true?
"Uh..." Lu Chengwen said, "I know you won't believe if I tell you. In short, my being with Luo Shiyin boils down to one thing."
"Fate?"
"Desire Elixir."
Qi ishao rolled her eyes at Lu Chengwen, clearly annoyed.
"Lu Chengwen, stop playing gas. My Sister Shiyin is a rare beauty—there isn't a woman in the world more beautiful than her. She was perfectly fine before eting you. This must be your sche. You must've plotted against her."
Lu Chengwen said, "I know you won't believe . At first, I didn't believe it either, but things just unfolded this way. Neither of us could do anything about it. Now that it's co to this, to be honest, I can't bear to leave her."
"Why? You don't lack won!"
"Exactly! I've never lacked won. What I lack is Luo Shiyin."
"You... scoundrel!"
"Do you have any new words in your vocabulary?"
"What would it take for you to let her go? She has a bright future ahead of her, and you can't just ruin her like this!"
Lu Chengwen said, "I ruined her? I already told you—it's almost all misunderstandings, misunderstanding after misunderstanding, layer upon layer of misunderstandings... until eventually, we just... went with the flow."
"It's just inexplicable, but as long as I take out a Desire Elixir, she will undoubtedly show up in front of and, without any reason, eat it right away."
Qi ishao said, "Who are you trying to fool? How could things be so coincidental? Clearly, you've been scheming against my Sister Shiyin!"
"I swear, I really haven't."
"Na your conditions. What do you want so you'll let her go?"
Lu Chengwen smiled and took out a Desire Elixir: "What's this?"
Qi ishao shook her head: "I don't know."
"Although its color and texture look different from the ones Luo Shiyin refines, let tell you, this is a Desire Elixir."
"This is a Desire Elixir? Who are you fooling? It's not like I've never seen one before."
"I'm telling you, it is—and its effects are even stronger than the ones Luo Shiyin makes."
"Ha! Just this tiny little thing?"
"Just this one. Take it, and you'll understand. If you're willing to eat it in front of , I'll listen to whatever you say."
"You'll leave my Sister Shiyin alone?"
"No." Lu Chengwen said, "After you eat it, you'll be just like her, completely obsessed with . Then the two of you can serve together as sisters."
"You shaless man!"
Lu Chengwen laughed, went to the liquor cabinet, poured two glasses of wine, and dissolved the Desire Elixir into one of them.
"Here, let's toast."
"I wouldn't fall for your trick! Drink this, and you'll leave my Sister Shiyin alone?"
"I give you my word."
"You won't go back on it?"
"I won't break my promise."
"You think I wouldn't dare to drink it?"
"Drink it, then."
"I'll drink it and expose your petty tricks!"
"Drink it!"
Qi ishao raised the glass, pretending to drink, then set it down again.
Smiling, she said, "Do you think I'm stupid? Drink? I'm not drinking!"
Lu Chengwen sighed with relief and thought to himself:
"Good thing you didn't drink it. If you had, it would've been a real problem. I'd have to detoxify you right here in the office."
Qi ishao was stunned in her heart—it really was Desire Lady Pill.
Lu Chengwen carried the wine glass back and placed it on the table. "In any case, I'll arrange for work to start as soon as possible. You can go now."
Qi ishao replied, "I hope you keep your word."
Lu Chengwen nodded, then suddenly asked, "Miss ishao."
"What now?"
"When you've seen recently... have you...?"
"Have I what?"
"Felt anything special?"
"Yes."
"Really?"
"Especially disgusted."
"Oh, that's fine then. That's good..."
"You're sick, aren't you!?"
"Ah? Hahaha!" Lu Chengwen stood up and put his arm around her shoulders as he walked her out. "It's nothing, it's nothing. My master was probably just spouting nonsense. It's fine now."
Qi ishao shrugged his arm off. "Don't touch !"
"Alright, alright, I won't touch you. Co on, co on, let walk you out."
"Hmph, with the great Lu Chengwen himself, how could I dare trouble you?"
"You're welco, you're welco. As long as you don't fall in love with , we'll be fine."
"Fall in love with you?"
"Yep, it seems highly unlikely right now."
"Lu Chengwen, go take a good look at yourself in the mirror! I, Qi ishao, will never fall in love with you! Seeing you just makes dislike others less!"
"Oh no! Disliking a man is the first step to falling in love with him! I think you're in danger. You need to be careful!"
"Be careful of what?"
"You need to be careful..."
As the two of them bickered, they walked out of the office.
Just as Lu Chengwen stepped out, Luo Shiyin climbed in through the window.
"Huh? Didn't they just say my darling was in the office? How annoying! I ca to see him, and he ran off!"
Luo Shiyin stood in the spacious office, looking around.
"So big! My darling's office is so big and grand."
She sat down in Lu Chengwen's office chair and rocked back and forth.
Tilting her head, she imagined Lu Chengwen sitting there, ruling the world, a blissful smile spreading across her face.
Huh? Two glasses of wine!?
This guy, is he fooling around with so woman in his office again? Ugh, so annoying! I knew he couldn't behave himself.
But why hasn't he drunk any?
Luo Shiyin picked up a glass, sniffed it, and took a sip, smiling.
"My darling's wine is always the best. It tastes so good."
Just as Lu Chengwen walked Qi ishao to the hallway, his phone alarm started blaring.
Silver Lump King quickly appeared. "Mr. Lu! There's been a breach in your office! It's a woman!"
Both Lu Chengwen and Qi ishao were startled.
Lu Chengwen took out his phone and saw a live feed of Luo Shiyin sitting in his chair, rocking back and forth, sipping a glass of red wine.
"Holy crap! Is this for real!?"
Qi ishao was also stunned as she stared at the footage. She looked up at Lu Chengwen, speechless.
Lu Chengwen glanced at Qi ishao. "You saw it! This isn't my fault! Tell , do you believe now? Isn't this proof? Did I set this up? Huh? Did I?"
Qi ishao slapped Lu Chengwen's arm. "Why are you still talking? Hurry up and stop her!"
Lu Chengwen turned to Silver Lump King. "Go back to work!"
Silver Lump King stood at attention. "Yes, sir!"
Lu Chengwen and Qi ishao rushed off, leaving Silver Lump King standing tall and firm.
At that mont, a staff mber walked over. "Mr. Silver, here's the latest security project update for your review."
Silver Lump King imdiately changed his expression, lifting his chin and adopting an air of authority.
"Ah, put it in my office for now. Gather the departnt managers this afternoon for a eting."
"Is there sothing serious?"
"Just now, Mr. Lu gave top-level instructions!"
"Oh? That serious? What instructions?"
"Mr. Lu, with utmost authority, told , 'Go back to work.'" He looked at the staff mber. "Do you understand the deeper aning behind that?"
The staff mber shook his head. "I don't."
"That's the difference between and you—or rather, the difference between you and . No more talking. Pass it along."
"Yes, sir."
The staff mber walked off, leaving Silver Lump King staring at Lu Chengwen's office door, shaking his head in admiration. "Mr. Lu, you're truly a genius!"
...
Lu Chengwen rushed into the office, stumbling. Luo Shiyin jumped up in surprise, quickly standing. When she saw Lu Chengwen, her face lit up with joy as she walked toward him—until she noticed Qi ishao.
Luo Shiyin froze. "-ishao... You're here too..."
Qi ishao asked, "Which glass did you just drink from?"
"What?"
"The wine! Which glass did you drink from just now?"
Luo Shiyin looked at the table. "This one."
Qi ishao turned to Lu Chengwen, anxiously asking, "Was it this one?"
Lu Chengwen stared at the two wine glasses on the table, bewildered. "I don't know! I just put them down randomly, planning to throw them away later!"
Luo Shiyin sensed sothing was wrong. "What's going on?"
Lu Chengwen explained, "One of the glasses has Desire Lady Pill in it."
Luo Shiyin's face lit up with excitent. "Ah? Really?"
Qi ishao was dumbfounded. "Sister Shiyin! Why are you so happy?"
Luo Shiyin quickly composed herself. "Was it that obvious?"
Qi ishao rolled her eyes, utterly at a loss for words.
