Miao Yajing was hissing in pain while drinking water, "Xiao Wu, you should never underestimate Capital City’s extremely spicy food. It killed me! I’m never eating something this spicy again."
Lin Wu laughed and said, "Jingjingzi, you’re really not up to snuff."
"Just wait, you’ll be crying from the spice too."
Lin Wu raised an eyebrow slightly, "Why would I? I am the chili queen," she said.
Three minutes later, Lin Wu was fanning herself with her hand and turned to Shen Lijun, "Water, give me water."
Why is Capital City’s extreme spice so hot!
Seeing her like this, Miao Yajing was almost convulsing with laughter, "Hahaha, Sister Lin, aren’t you the chili queen?"
Lin Wu: "... What a painful realization."
Meanwhile.
Country C.
In the top-floor boardroom.
A man with a powerful aura stood at the head of the room, looking down at the attendees with a slight frown, "So, did everyone get what I said clearly?"
"Clear as day," all the executives present were sweating bullets.
The air pressure was very low.
The feeling of oppression was extremely strong.
This boss hardly ever comes back more than once a year.
And when he does, it scares people half to death.
Ding-dong, ding-dong--
At that moment, a WeChat notification sound broke the silence of the room.
The man parted his thin lips slightly, "Good, whose phone is that ringing?"
"Have you all forgotten the rules of JL?"
"Why is no one speaking!"
The executives looked at one another, seeing the fear in each other’s eyes.
Initially, they were just too afraid to speak. Now, they didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly.
"No one wants to admit it’s theirs?"
Just then, an assistant took a step forward, "Sir, it seems to be your own phone."
His phone?
The man paused, picked up the phone on the table, and when he saw the message on the screen, his previously furrowed brows relaxed as if someone had soothed them away, "Today’s meeting is over, you’re dismissed."
Phew!
Upon hearing that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurried out of the boardroom.
In a blink, only Lu Ye and his assistant remained in the boardroom.
He sat in the executive chair and looked at his assistant, "You can leave too."
"Yes, sir." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
The assistant bowed and exited the boardroom, closing the soundproof door behind him.
Lu Ye picked up his phone again, looking at the message from a certain person.
There were two text messages.
And several landscape photos.
He clicked to enlarge the pictures, flipping through them one by one, when suddenly his finger paused.
There on the picture.
The girl, dressed in a pink Hanfu, was lifting the hem of her skirt slightly as she ran forward. It seemed someone had called out to her, and as she turned her head, the shutter clicked, capturing her against the crimson palace walls. She looked just like the Peony Fairy descending from heaven.
The simple word "beautiful" didn’t begin to capture her loveliness.
Thump, thump--
In the quiet space, Lu Ye heard his heartbeat once again.
After a moment, Lu Ye replied to her, "Beautiful, like a fairy."
Only when Lin Wu saw Lu Ye’s reply did she realize that she had accidentally sent a photo of herself.
It must have been included by mistake when she sent the batch of landscape photos.
Luckily, it was Lu Ye.
This man was a bachelor by principle who wouldn’t think much of it.
If she had sent it to Guo Dongcheng, he would surely think she was playing hard to get.
Lin Wu raised an eyebrow slightly, [Can the universe’s number one invincible super beauty be anything but stunning?]
Qiao Ran asked curiously, "Sister Lin, who are you chatting with? Why do you have such a shady smile?"
"Old Iron," Lin Wu said.
Qiao Ran continued, "The repair shop owner?"
"Mhm," Lin Wu nodded slightly.
Qiao Ran clicked his tongue, "Sister Lin, could it be that you’ve fallen in love?"
"What are you thinking?" Lin Wu put down her phone, picked up a skewer of grilled tofu, "He’s a bachelor by principle."
Qiao Ran’s eyes widened, "The repair shop owner is a bachelor?"
"Yeah," Lin Wu nodded, "So, between him and me, there’s only an ironclad brotherhood!"
Shen Lijun added, "Don’t you think the repair shop owner is very handsome and mysterious? I always feel there’s more to him than just being a simple mechanic."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ran immediately agreed, "Exactly, I’ve noticed it too. Honestly, I don’t dare get too close to him."
It was an instinctive fear.
Indescribable.
Although Lu Ye was just repairing cars, Qiao Ran felt as if he was signing multimillion-dollar deals.
"I get the same feeling," Miao Yajing raised her hand in silent agreement.

The next day.
Fang Youling left home early.
She first went to the company and then to an appraisal center.
Not only was Fang Youling a regular there, she was also an investor.
"Director Fang," as soon as she walked into the lobby, the person in charge greeted her with respect.
Fang Youling nodded and followed the person in charge into the office, taking out two samples, "Xiao Liu, this time it’s different. Can you help me expedite the appraisal report?"
