Chapter 597: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character in the Ancient World of Domineering Bosses (5)



On the opening day, media flocked to the scene, wanting to find out what was going on.

When He Quan showed up at the scene, the media were shocked. They didn't expect that He Quan, who had previously been rumored to be at odds with Song Jiao, would actually appear at her company's opening ceremony.

For a time, all kinds of speculation and discussions arose.

However, when He Quan walked onto the stage and stood side by side with Song Jiao, the media finally believed that the previous hot search was just a misunderstanding.

They took photos and videos to record this rare scene.

Only He Quan himself knew that the previous death experiences might not have been dreams, but real.

He recalled the scenes of being "cracked" by Song Jiao time and time again, and each time made him feel extremely painful.

From the hundreds of times before to the five times yesterday, that kind of death didn’t seem like a dream at all.

The expression on his face when he looked at Song Jiao no longer contained so many thoughts, but was more of worry and fear.

Song Jiao was wearing a well-cut red dress, burning the entire banquet hall's sight like a flame.

She naturally noticed He Quan's undisguised gaze, and a flamboyant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if it could illuminate the darkest corner of the banquet.

"Mr. He, why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Song Jiao raised the corner of her mouth, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

He Quan was caught off guard by this sudden teasing and quickly retracted his slightly out-of-control gaze. He feigned composure and replied, "No, I just felt that Boss Liu was particularly dazzling tonight and hard to ignore."

Song Jiao chuckled softly, the laughter was crisp and pleasant, but also carried a certain unspeakable depth.

Her gaze inadvertently swept across the crowd not far away, where Fu Xuxu was trying hard to hide herself, but could not escape Song Jiao's sharp eyes.

She deliberately moved closer to He Quan, and the distance between them was instantly shortened. Although she still maintained a certain social etiquette, in Fu Xuxu's view, this posture seemed extremely ambiguous.

"Mr. He, since I attract you so much, why not consider investing in my company? I guarantee you'll make a profit."

Fu Xuxu watched this scene from afar, his eyes filled with jealousy and anger.

She clenched her teeth, as if she wanted to chew all the dissatisfaction into her stomach.

In the end, she couldn't stand the stimulation anymore and turned away angrily.

He Quan naturally noticed Fu Xuxu's departure, and an inexplicable urge surged in his heart, wanting to catch up with her and explain something.

However, at this moment, Song Jiao's light words extinguished his enthusiasm like ice.

"Mr. He, if you chase after him, don't forget what you promised me last night."

He Quan's steps froze instantly. He looked at Song Jiao deeply, with helplessness and fear in his eyes.

He didn't dare to gamble, he really didn't dare to gamble whether Song Jiao would do something to erase her because of momentary dissatisfaction.

Song Jiao watched He Quan retract his steps and felt extremely satisfied.

She added with a smile, "Mr. He, you should know that once some secrets are leaked, the consequences can be disastrous. So, you'd better keep those things that shouldn't be said to yourself to avoid unnecessary trouble."

When He Quan heard this, he felt a chill down his spine, as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at him in the dark.

Song Jiao stood under the bright lights, a satisfied smile on her lips, her eyes sparkling with amusement and victory.

She spoke slowly, with a barely perceptible hint of pride in her voice.

It seems that you have really understood it this time. People who have died several times do have different feelings!

At least now I know I can’t leave!

He Quan stood opposite her with a complicated expression, showing both fear and helplessness.

He tried to calm himself down and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you, but you can't kill me."

There was a hint of pleading in his tone, as if he was negotiating with an irresistible fate.

When Song Jiao heard this, the smile on her face widened. She shook her head slightly, as if she was admiring He Quan's helplessness.

"Now that you understand this, then be a good face for me! As for your girlfriend Fu Xuxu, whether she will experience the same thing depends on your performance."

As soon as He Quan heard Fu Xuxu's name, his expression immediately became nervous and anxious.

He stared at Song Jiao, as if trying to find the answer from her eyes. "Liu Ruyan, what do you want to do? Can't you let go of what happened before?"

Song Jiao raised her eyes slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in them. "Let go? Who said I'm letting go? I know exactly what Fu Xuxu did to me. As for what I want to do, who knows? Maybe I just want to get angry, maybe I just want revenge, who can guess what I'm thinking?"

He Quan's face suddenly became terribly gloomy. He clenched his teeth, as if trying to suppress the anger that was about to burst out.

"What will it take for you to let Fu Xuxu go? She is innocent after all!"

Song Jiao chuckled, her laughter tinged with madness and amusement. "Innocent? Who in this world is truly innocent? If I told you I'd ruin your reputation and make you the object of everyone's ridicule, what would you choose? Hehehe~"

As Song Jiao finished speaking, He Quan's face turned paler again.

"Okay, okay, it's just a joke, don't take it so seriously." Song Jiao still smiled.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony ended successfully with applause and cheers. The crowd gradually dispersed, but He Quan's heart was still hanging.

He knew very well that the calm at the moment was only temporary. If he did not explain clearly to Fu Xuxu as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous.

Thinking of this, he quickly walked through the crowd, eagerly looking for the familiar figure.

Meanwhile, Song Jiao stood on the rooftop terrace, overlooking the bustling cityscape below. With her hands, she gently formed a virtual frame, a playful smile playing on her lips.

With a casual "Biu", the car He Quan was riding in on the street in the distance suddenly burst into a sharp roar, followed by a ball of blazing flames that instantly engulfed the entire car body.

The next second, He Quan was surprised to find himself back in Song Jiao's office. Everything around him was so familiar, as if time had gone back.

However, the feeling of being burned by the flames was still clear on his body, making him unable to ignore what had just happened.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Song Jiao, his eyes filled with anger and confusion: "Is it you? You killed me again?"

Song Jiao folded her arms and looked at him with a melancholy expression, as if she had anticipated his reaction. "How could you think that? I just wanted to express my gratitude to you, and I don't have your phone number, so this is the only way to ask you to come back!"
