Dong Jielin had a wicked idea and took out her phone, pointing it at the two of them.

However, out of the blue, someone suddenly patted her shoulder from behind!

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Dong Jielin felt her soul nearly leave her body, and she almost screamed. She shuddered, and when she turned around, she met Shao Xiaofei's ambiguous, half-smiling gaze!

"you……"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Shao Xiaofei smiled and looked in the direction of her phone. The person on the other end was Pei Nian. And the man in a suit and tie standing there talking to Pei Nian must be Huo Junyu, the Lu family's son-in-law who has been temporarily in charge recently, right?

Shao Xiaofei narrowed her eyes, observing Huo Junyu's extraordinary demeanor and Pei Nian's composed expression. The two were simply having a normal conversation, perhaps discussing some work-related matters...

But what kind of trouble is this woman up to now?

Shao Xiaofei sneered.

A filthy person sees everything as dirty.

Pei Nian helped her last time, so how could she let this bitch ruin Pei Nian's reputation this time?

Shao Xiaofei smiled and said sarcastically to Dong Jielin, "What, whose husband have you set your sights on this time?... Oh, so it's the eldest son of the Huo family?"

"No, no, I..."

Dong Jielin was eager to explain, but Shao Xiaofei cut her off.

"Sigh, Miss Dong, it's one thing for you to flirt with my ordinary man, but you dare to covet someone like the eldest son of the Huo family, who was born to float on clouds? His wife is your boss!"

"Mrs. Qin!" Dong Jielin's face flushed red. "Keep your voice down!"

Shao Xiaofei suppressed a laugh.

She could tell that Dong Jielin both hated and feared her, and was now afraid that if she made a fuss, it would alert Huo Junyu and Pei Nian over there.

She suddenly remembered the red bean smoothie she was holding... She had made it at home that morning. A few days ago, she had argued with Qin Yu and gone back to her parents' home. After calming down, she was still willing to be the one to apologize first.

So she did all this and delivered it. She was hesitating whether to go directly upstairs to Qin Yu's office when she saw Dong Jielin's scene downstairs.

Shao Xiaofei's lips curled slightly, his phoenix eyes seeming to conceal ice blades as he looked at Dong Jielin and said in a low voice, "Miss Dong, don't misunderstand... Heh, Qin Yu scolded me last time, and I reflected on myself. Making a scene at the company was indeed my fault. Even if I don't give you face, I should at least give him some, right?"

Dong Jielin suspected that her ears were damaged.

"Miss Dong!" Shao Xiaofei's smile was chilling. "After all, you're Qin Yu's person too. I should be magnanimous and accept you!"

"No, no, Mrs. Qin, this..."

"Look, I specially made something to bring you today! I know you were quite angry with me last time, so I made you a smoothie..." Shao Xiaofei said the last few words through gritted teeth, "to cool you down!"

Dong Jielin opened her eyes wide, realizing that the visitor meant trouble, but it was too late.

Before anyone could react, Shao Xiaofei suddenly poured the entire box of smoothies over Dong Jielin's head!

"Ah—" Dong Jielin screamed, drawing everyone's attention to her.

Blinded by the red bean paste, she wandered around like a headless fly, her cries startling Huo Junyu and Pei Nian, who then walked over to her.

At that moment, Qin Yu also rushed down from upstairs.

Dong Jielin's face was covered in red bean shaved ice, and her white shirt was also stained. Shao Xiaofei's sneer next to her was even colder than the shaved ice.

The onlookers whispered and chuckled, "Poor Jacquelin, of all people to mess with, he had to pick on Mrs. Qin. Now he's been beaten up by the main wife again!"

Qin Yu was stunned by what he saw, frozen in place, and almost had a heart attack.

“Shao Xiaofei, you…”

Before he could say anything, Dong Jielin heard his voice and immediately rushed over without hesitation!

Qin Yu's eyes widened!

Although Shao Xiaofei had embarrassed him again, he absolutely did not want Dong Jielin to get even a step closer to him!

So when Dong Jielin lunged at him, he slightly turned to the side, and Dong Jielin missed, lost her balance, twisted her ankle, and almost fell over.

"President Qin..."

She was disheveled and looked at Qin Yu with teary eyes.

Qin Yu frowned, his eyes showing no pity whatsoever.

"Mr. Qin, your wife..."

What's wrong with my wife?

"this……"

Dong Jielin was at a loss.

Isn't that obvious enough? I covered her in ice cream, and she's still shivering!

“Jacquelin,” Qin Yu said coldly, “haven’t you always considered yourself my mistress? Ha, since you’re my mistress, in the past you would have been my concubine.”

Shao Xiaofei was stunned and stared blankly at Qin Yu.

“Since you’re a concubine,” Qin Yu slowly walked to Shao Xiaofei’s side and stopped, “then it’s only right for your wife to scold you or hit you a couple of times. Don’t feel resentful, okay? What’s a little ice cream? Even if she throws sulfuric acid at you in a fit of anger, you’d still have to take it! Understand?”

"What?!"

Dong Jielin turned pale with anger.

Shao Xiaofei was utterly shocked.

In her memory, this seemed to be the first time... Qin Yu stood beside her.

"Qin Yu," she said in disbelief, "do you know what you're saying?"

Qin Yu glanced at her and said, "I don't have Alzheimer's yet."

"Then..." Shao Xiaofei moved her lips, "Then if I do this to her, what will you do..."

"Shao Xiaofei," Qin Yu said impatiently, "Do I look like I'm here to uphold justice?!"

Shao Xiaofei remained silent, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

The crowd was silent at first, then burst into exclamations and whispers.

"I never imagined that President Qin was like this!"

"Hey, don't think too highly of him. As long as a man has a sound mind, he'll protect his wife in front of others!"

"That works too. As the empress, even without love, at least she'll save face!"

"It's all about interests. How could someone as smart as President Qin not understand this?"

Dong Jielin was so ashamed that she gritted her teeth in hatred, and she pushed everyone away and ran away.

The employees who had been watching the commotion gradually dispersed, but Shao Xiaofei remained standing there, still basking in the joy of having just formed a "united front" with Qin Yu.

However, soon, a man's cold voice rang in his ears: "Go home now! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

Shao Xiaofei felt as if she had been struck on the head and woken up.

She glanced at Qin Yu, bit her lip, and her last shred of pride prevented her from saying a single kind word to him.

At that moment, they both saw Huo Junyu and Pei Nian standing not far away.

Qin Yu composed himself, strode over, and nodded slightly to Huo Junyu. "Young Master Huo."

Huo Junyu remained expressionless, showing no emotion whatsoever.

"I am very sorry that my personal matters have once again disrupted the company's order."

“You don’t need to apologize,” Huo Junyu said softly. “Actually, I just saw Dong Jielin secretly taking pictures of me and Pei Nian.”

Qin Yu and Shao Xiaofei were both taken aback.

"And your wife is truly a heroine!"
