32-year-old Ren Xue'er, single since birth, finally couldn't bear her parents' incessant urging to marry. She agreed to a blind date to marry herself off and escape her suffocating orig...
The man became angrier the more he thought about it. He picked up a pair of pajamas and hung them lazily on his body. He stood up and grabbed the wrist of the woman who was about to step into the bathroom.
Before the woman could fully react, the man had already pressed her against the wall next to the bathroom door. An unprecedented hint of danger flashed in his eyes, and he stared at her with a forced smile.
"Scold me?"
"Hehehe..." Ren Xueer, who had come to her senses, was forced to raise her head, staring at the man who had put on his pajamas with wide eyes. She had no choice but to pretend to be stupid in front of him, and casually pulled the belt of the man's pajamas to tie it for him. The next second, she directly attacked the man's hair.
"Be good, pat my head, don't be angry."
"Ren Xueer!" Lu Tingen raised his fist. Seeing the woman subconsciously close her eyes, an inexplicable reluctance surged in his heart. He narrowed his dangerous eyes and forced himself to calm down.
Seeing that the fist had not yet landed, the woman tentatively opened one eye quietly, but was caught by the man who was staring at her and poked her forehead hard.
"Don't touch my hair! Hurry up and wash up and go downstairs to eat."
"Oh." Ren Xueer rubbed her forehead gently, watching the man enter the bathroom, and muttered in a voice as small as a mosquito.
"Not a gentleman at all. Will being gentle with a girl kill you?"
The bathroom door was suddenly opened from the inside, and the man stuck his head out and said sternly: "Yes!"
After saying that, he slammed the door shut with a bang.
"..." Ren Xueer twitched the corner of her mouth and made a face towards the bathroom.
Tui!
Such a tsundere!
—
Ren family residence.
Ren Feng lay leisurely on the sofa, eating melon seeds, his eyes fixed on the bank card on the coffee table, his brows sometimes frowning and sometimes relaxing.
"Feng'er, come and have breakfast." Mother Ren brought the food to the table and called towards the sofa. Seeing no response, she walked forward and said, "Feng'er, Feng'er...what are you thinking about?"
Ren Feng looked annoyed, "Hey, stop bothering me!"
"Feng'er, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?" Mother Ren's face was full of heartache. She reached out to touch the other person's forehead, but was slapped away by Ren Feng.
"I told you to leave me alone, could you please just leave me alone?"
"Don't bother with him!" Ren's father called Ren's mother back to the dinner table, glanced at Ren Feng, and scolded him.
"You're not good at anything, and you have a bad temper. Look at your brother, at least he's in a class. Look at you, ugh!"
Ren Feng was already upset, and his father's words were undoubtedly a double blow to him at this moment.
"Yes, I have a bad temper, I'm a coward, I'm useless, and I have wild ideas, okay?"
Ren's mother comforted her: "Feng'er, don't say that about yourself. Your father didn't mean that."
Ren Feng: "Alright, stop saying good things for him. I, Ren Feng, am putting this out there today. The more you look down on me, the more I'm going to go to the tiger mountain. I'm definitely going to join the Lu Group!"
After saying that, he picked up the bank card on the coffee table and turned to leave.
Ren's mother: "Feng'er, you haven't had breakfast yet!"
Ren's father said: "Let him go. I want to see if he has the ability."
…
An hour later, in the corner of the garden next to the entrance of Lu Group, Ren Feng hid in the dark and kept an eye on the movements at the entrance.
Suddenly, a man and a woman who appeared at the same time, one in front and one behind, caught his attention. He quickly ran towards the target person from the garden.
Within a few seconds, he appeared behind Ren Xueer with a smile and slapped her on the shoulder.
"Hi, my dear sister."
"Oh my God!" Ren Xueer's face turned pale with fright when the man suddenly jumped out from behind her. She patted her chest lightly, and when she saw who it was, she couldn't help but clench her teeth.
"you……"
"It's you again, then I won't be polite!" Without waiting for the woman to finish her words, the black-clad bodyguard at the door rushed forward, dragged Ren Feng with one hand and threw him away.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't pull me, Xue'er, sister, save me, save me..."
Ren Xueer: “…”
The woman was shocked by the scene before her.
This bodyguard is really awesome.
At this moment, the man who was walking in front of the woman and talking on the phone with Bluetooth headphones on suddenly slowed down, turned around and looked at the scene in the distance, his eyes narrowed unconsciously.
"Okay, I understand. That's it for now."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Tingen looked at the woman who was standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but clear his throat forcefully, "Ahem..."
Hearing the voice, the woman withdrew her gaze and walked towards the company door.
Seeing the two of them appear together, the well-trained bodyguards at the door quickly stood in two rows, bowed respectfully, and said, "Hello, Mr. Lu, hello, Madam!"
"..." Ren Xueer was shocked by the scene in front of her and didn't know how to respond for a moment. She smiled politely and quickly followed the man into the hall.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped into the hall, she was greeted again with a chorus of greetings.
"Good morning, Mr. Lu, good morning, Madam!"
Ren Xueer looked in the direction of the voice and saw them waving at her frantically. The woman continued to smile politely, but the villain deep down in her heart kept complaining.
Look at all these fawning faces. Is this the proverbial, "You ignored me yesterday, but today I'm too high for you to reach?" Haha, that's human nature!
When the woman returned to her workstation, she found a bouquet of roses on her desk. She subconsciously frowned, thinking about what Lu Tingen had said last night.
Who sent that bouquet of flowers yesterday?
Today's bouquet——
If it wasn't a gift from Lu Tingen, then it must have been some person's prank.
Thinking of this, the woman picked up the water cup and walked out, throwing the roses into the trash can at the door.
In the tea room, people came in and out one after another, and several people gathered together to talk.
"Is the Planning Department organizing some kind of funny event? When I came this morning, I saw several women from their department cursing at each other in the first-floor lobby! The scene was absolutely hilarious!"
"Hahahahaha... Speaking of this, I'm not confused anymore. When I went to the restaurant to buy breakfast just now, I heard someone swearing. I thought they were arguing, so I followed the sound out of curiosity. Guess what happened?"
"Don't keep me in suspense. Hurry up and tell me. It's almost time to go to work."
"It wasn't really anything. It was just a few women from the planning department scolding themselves in front of Assistant Lin. I didn't dare get close enough, so I didn't hear it clearly. The only thing I remember clearly was Assistant Lin's words, 'The tone isn't good enough, try again! The emotion isn't right, try again!' Do you think they were actually rehearsing a show?"
"The truth behind Special Assistant Lin's appearance is far more complicated than that..."
At this moment, a female voice with a clip-like tone sounded in the corridor.
"Hey, Xue'er, are you here to get some water too?"
