An ambiguous atmosphere simmered within the large office.
Shen Tinghe's eyes darkened slightly. With a forceful movement, he hoisted Lin Qingtong onto his broad shoulders and strode into the rest room.
Lin Qingtong originally thought that Shen Tinghe would leave her on the big bed in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, but she didn't expect him to throw her directly into the bathtub.
Holding the showerhead, Shen Tinghe smirked and sprayed the showerhead directly at Lin Qingtong.
"You need to calm down."
The icy water splashed on her back, and Lin Qingtong trembled all over. She then raised her hand to brush away her wet hair, glared at Shen Tinghe, and her anger surged.
She stood up, holding onto the bathtub, and tried to pull off one of the straps, but she couldn't get it off completely.
Lin Qingtong lightly bit her lip and leaned closer to Shen Tinghe, raising her hand to lift his chin with a charming smile.
"Mr. Shen, so this is how you like to play."
She slowly stepped out of the bathtub, her fair and slender hand resting on Shen Tinghe's broad shoulder, gently caressing it.
"Actually, I've always wanted to tell you a secret. Come closer."
Shen Tinghe stared at Lin Qingtong with a cool and aloof expression, but eventually leaned closer and heard her speak with a sweet laugh.
"Actually, I am a woman."
Upon hearing this, Shen Tinghe frowned slightly. She wasn't a woman, so could she be a man?
The next second, Lin Qingtong snatched the shower head from his hand and pushed him into the bathtub.
The showerhead sprayed mercilessly at Shen Tinghe, while Lin Qingtong's smile widened to an almost blinding degree.
"You've been fooled, Shen Tinghe!"
Before Shen Tinghe could react, Lin Qingtong left a sentence and ran out of the bathroom.
Shen Tinghe lay in the bathtub, the cold water slowly enveloping and soaking his body.
He didn't even bother to get up; he simply glanced in the direction Lin Qingtong had left and gave a cold laugh.
"childish."
Inside the break room, Lin Qingtong took off her sundress, opened the wardrobe barefoot, and saw only suits inside, which looked extremely plain.
She casually picked out a white shirt and put it on, all the while inwardly grumbling.
This person is really indifferent.
Lin Qingtong brought in her laptop from outside while drying her half-dry long hair with a towel.
She took out her phone and dialed one real estate sales office after another to inquire about information.
After a long while, Shen Tinghe walked out of the dressing room in a brand new suit.
Her hair was still covered with glistening water droplets, and she smelled of cool shower gel all over her body.
He slowly raised his eyes, and what came into view was Lin Qingtong sitting cross-legged on the sofa, busy with something.
She was completely unaware that her white shirt revealed a glimpse of her figure, exuding a seductive allure.
Seeing this, Shen Tinghe's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he coldly averted his gaze.
Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a thin piece of fabric hanging from the corner air conditioner vent, swaying gently in the wind.
His gaze darkened, and he walked over to take it down, intending to return it to Lin Qingtong.
But Lin Qingtong suddenly looked up, her gaze full of doubt, and asked, "What are you doing there?"
Shen Tinghe used his long, slender fingers to lift the thin fabric, the slightly damp touch enveloping his fingertips.
His expression was indifferent and aloof, and he uttered a single sentence.
"It's an eyesore."
Lin Qingtong blushed instantly, rushed over and snatched the fabric away, giving him a sharp look.
"I didn't ask you to touch me!"
Shen Tinghe's gaze remained deep, and he exuded a heavy, oppressive aura as he coldly questioned him.
"Lin Qingtong, have you completed your mission?"
Finding out the sales situation of Teng Hai Real Estate in less than half an hour is no easy task.
It would probably take at least half a day for his subordinates to obtain accurate information.
Moreover, this was Shen Tinghe deliberately making things difficult for Lin Qingtong.
Lin Qingtong frowned slightly as she looked at Shen Tinghe and pleaded.
"How about you give me another hour?"
Shen Tinghe's thin lips curled into a smile that was neither a smile nor a frown.
He enjoyed seeing the frustration on Lin Qingtong's beautiful face, as if it could soothe his grief and anger at being cruelly abandoned.
"You can admit your incompetence."
Shen Tinghe spoke indifferently, offering a reminder.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qingtong suddenly smiled brightly.
"I will never admit my incompetence."
In the lounge with its huge floor-to-ceiling windows, Lin Qingtong slowly turned her laptop over to show Shen Tinghe, tilting her head and giving a slight smile.
"Take a look."
Shen Tinghe took the laptop and looked at it; his eyes were deep and unfathomable.
The screen in front of her displayed Teng Hai Real Estate's sales data for the past three years, clearly indicating whether each sale was made by an agent or the sales office.
In just one hour, she had finished organizing all the information.
Shen Tinghe slowly raised his eyes and looked up, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.
As expected of Lin Qingtong, her abilities are indeed outstanding, and it's no wonder that she can support the Jiang family company all by herself.
Jiang Hao is indeed not good enough for her.
Just then, Lin Qingtong's clear and melodious voice rang in his ears.
“Mr. Shen, I originally planned to collect sales data of Teng Hai Real Estate for the past ten years, but it will take another half hour.”
Her calm and frank words were an explanation for why she had just said that more time was needed.
A smile flashed in Shen Tinghe's dark eyes as he handed the notebook to Lin Qingtong and uttered a casual remark.
"You did a great job. Would you like a reward?"
His tall figure slowly approached, exuding a sense of oppression.
In that instant, Lin Qingtong understood the meaning behind Shen Tinghe's words, sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly refused.
"Thank you, but there's no need. I don't need a reward."
Shen Tinghe stood there with one hand in his pocket, raised an eyebrow at Lin Qingtong, and said coldly.
Are you sure you want to go out wearing my white shirt?
Only then did Lin Qingtong realize that she was still wearing Shen Tinghe's white shirt, and there was nothing underneath.
As she walked, she felt a chill all over her body.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across her bright and charming face. She bit her lip and gazed at Shen Tinghe, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling with a captivating light.
"Mr. Shen, I want some clothes."
At this moment, Lin Qingtong was filled with embarrassment and had no idea how alluring she was.
Sunlight streamed into the lounge through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, landing right behind Lin Qingtong and clearly highlighting the contours of her graceful figure.
Shen Tinghe's eyes darkened slightly, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
"I can take you to buy it."
His dangerous gaze lingered on the edge of Lin Qingtong's white shirt, as if it had materialized and slipped inside.
Lin Qingtong was stunned for a moment. The thought of herself dressed like this and stepping into a bustling shopping mall made her cheeks flush red.
Even setting aside going to the mall, just walking out of this door dressed like this makes her feel incredibly embarrassed and angry.
That's so strange!
Lin Qingtong was only stunned for a moment, then, like a white cat with its fur standing on end, she glared at Shen Tinghe with a resentful and reproachful look.
"I don't want to, it's too weird. If you're going, you should dress like this too!"
