Li Susu's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, this is going to be a nuisance.

She sighed resignedly, opened the door, and asked in an icy tone, "Fu Xingzhou, what exactly do you want?"

Upon seeing her, Fu Xingzhou immediately put away his previous dejection, his eyes lit up, and he squeezed into the room, reeking of alcohol and exuding a chill.

Before Li Susu could stop him, he was already standing steadily in the living room.

"Su Su, I miss you... for the past three years... I've been going crazy missing you..." he mumbled, but his eyes were unusually persistent.

Li Susu was caught off guard by his sudden confession.

The butler rushed over upon hearing the commotion and, seeing Fu Xingzhou's state, immediately stepped forward to help him up: "Mr. Fu, you've had too much to drink. Let me take you home."

Fu Xingzhou shoved the butler aside, staggered a few steps, and pointed at Li Susu: "I'm not leaving! I want to stay with Susu!"

The housekeeper looked at Li Susu helplessly, his eyes questioning.

Li Susu felt a mix of emotions. Looking at Fu Xingzhou's appearance, she was angry, helpless, and even a little... attracted.

"You better behave yourself!" Li Susu warned. "If you cause any more trouble, I'll call the police!"

Fu Xingzhou, as if grasping at a lifeline, nodded hurriedly: "I won't make a fuss, Su Su, listen to me..."

He rambled on about his longing and regret over the past three years, his tone filled with pain and self-reproach.

As Li Susu listened to his words, her resolve gradually wavered.

"Alright, that's enough," Li Susu interrupted him. "You stay on the sofa and don't come upstairs! If you dare go upstairs, you'll never see me again!"

Fu Xingzhou lay obediently on the sofa, but his eyes kept following Li Susu's figure.

Looking at his obedient appearance, Li Susu sighed inwardly.

This man is truly...someone you both love and hate.

Li Susu woke up in the early morning, and a new day began.

She was dressed neatly and walked downstairs with light steps.

The living room was quiet, and Fu Xingzhou was still lying on the sofa, fast asleep.

His brows and eyes relaxed, losing their usual sharpness and gaining a gentler appearance.

Li Susu couldn't help but tiptoe to the sofa.

She bent down as if possessed, wanting to get a closer look at his sleeping face.

Her fingertips reached out uncontrollably and gently stroked his cheek.

The skin felt warm and smooth to the touch, and Li Susu felt a sudden tremor in her heart.

Suddenly, a large hand grabbed her wrist; the force wasn't strong, but she couldn't break free.

Fu Xingzhou opened his eyes, his deep gaze locking onto her, a triumphant smile playing on his lips.

"You couldn't resist coming to see me so early in the morning?" His voice was slightly hoarse, yet incredibly alluring.

Li Susu blushed and tried to pull her hand away, but he held it tightly.

"Let me go!" she warned in a low voice, though her tone was not as harsh as before.

Fu Xingzhou not only didn't let go, but instead pulled her forcefully into his arms.

"Susu, don't go..." He buried his head in the crook of her neck, greedily inhaling her scent.

Li Susu was taken aback by his sudden affectionate gesture and struggled to push him away.

"Fu Xingzhou, let go! I need to go to work!"

"I won't let go unless you promise me..." Fu Xingzhou tightened his arms as if being unreasonable, his tone carrying a hint of coquetry.

Li Susu was amused by his appearance and pinched his waist hard.

"Ouch!" Fu Xingzhou cried out in pain and quickly let go.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Susu escaped and ran out of the living room without looking back.

Fu Xingzhou couldn't help but laugh as he watched her flee in disarray.

This woman seems to have reverted to her former cute and lively self.

Li Susu arrived at the company in a good mood and had just sat down when she received a message from her assistant.

"President Li, Longteng Real Estate has been found guilty of money laundering and has been shut down!"

"The compensation process for the project is already underway."

Li Susu finally felt relieved.

Before I could even breathe a sigh of relief, the secretary knocked on the door and came in.

"President Li, Chairman Lin has convened a board meeting and requests your presence now."

Li Susu's heart sank. Lin Qing's call for a board meeting at this time was probably not for good reasons.

She took a deep breath, got up, and walked towards the conference room.

As Li Susu pushed open the conference room door, a suffocating atmosphere rushed out.

The shareholders all looked grim.

"President Li, you've finally arrived! You must give us an explanation regarding Longteng Real Estate!" A shareholder slammed his hand on the table, his spittle almost landing on Li Susu's face.

“Yes, the company has suffered such a huge loss, you are to blame!” another shareholder chimed in, his tone full of reproach.

"You've only been in office for a few days and you've already made such a huge mistake. I don't think you're capable of winning against the arbitrators!"

"That's right, the Li family is really something, actually entrusting such an important position to a young girl!"

Li Susu stood there quietly, letting them buzz around like a swarm of angry bees.

Her eyes were cool and composed, showing no sign of panic.

She only spoke slowly after they had finally finished cursing.

"Are you done arguing?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority that instantly silenced the entire conference room.

"I have submitted the evidence of Longteng Real Estate's money laundering to the relevant departments." Li Susu took out several documents from the folder and threw them on the conference table. "You can all take a look."

The shareholders looked at each other, then picked up the documents to examine them.

The document details Longteng Real Estate's money laundering process, and the evidence is conclusive and irrefutable.

The shareholders, who had been so aggressive just moments before, now wilted like frostbitten eggplants.

The meeting room fell silent again, with only the sound of papers turning.

Lin Qing sat in the main seat, his face ashen.

He didn't expect that Li Susu was prepared in advance, which left him speechless.
