What is the story of "Crossing the River in White Clothes"?
Xue Xiaodie stared at the young lady in front of her and said in a low voice, "That's a story from the Three Kingdoms period. The Shu Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom allied to resist the Wei Kingdom. At that time, Guan Yu led his army and defeated the Wei army one after another, but the allied Wu Kingdom secretly planned to launch a surprise attack on Guan Yu's rear, Jingzhou..."
Tang Qi clenched her fists tightly. The tension in her chest made it hard for her to breathe.
Xue Xiaodie continued, "Wu general Lü Meng led a group of soldiers disguised as merchants and civilians to cross the river and attack Jingzhou. This move was very successful, and Guan Yu was only reminded by Cao Cao that his rear was gone. Yes, it was Wei who reminded Guan Yu."
The implication was very clear, and even Tang Qi understood its meaning—it seemed that it was President Xia who discovered the strange relationship between her and Lu Zhe.
The young lady gave a rather forced smile: "That's really bad. After that, did the Wu and Shu kingdoms still maintain their alliance?"
Xue Xiaodie shook her head: "Later, the Shu Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom fought a battle, and Liu Bei died in the end. Fortunately, Zhuge Liang was there to take charge of the overall situation and assist Liu Shan in succeeding to the throne."
Tang Qi: "Sister Xiaodie, you know so much! You even know so much about history."
Xue Xiaodie smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I can't even tell the difference between Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Records of the Three Kingdoms. He's the one who told me a lot of things. And what's the use of knowing more? If I'm going to be unlucky, I'll still be unlucky, right? No, I shouldn't call it unlucky. I was just naive and careless. How can I blame luck?"
Tang Qi scratched her head, unsure how to respond.
Xue Xiaodie stared at her, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked softly, "Little Rainbow Candy, you don't need to play dumb with me. Tell me the truth, how far have things progressed between you and Lu Zhe?"
Tang Qi smiled sweetly, "There's not much progress... Okay, I admit it, I did secretly see him a few times, but it was just to ask him to help me blow-dry my hair and chat with me or something."
At 11 p.m., a lone man and a lone woman chatting?
They dare to kiss each other on the street, but in the bedroom, on the bed, they just chat?
Xue Xiaodie knew perfectly well what was going on, but she didn't go any further to embarrass him. She simply said, word by word, "Well then, it's a deal. No one can sneak away anymore."
Tang Qi nodded vigorously: "Absolutely!"

I really need your help, please, right now...
Seeing that Xia Xiaobing, who is usually calm and rational, would send such a message, Lu Zhe couldn't help but hesitate.
After hesitating for a while, he finally changed his clothes, walked out of the bedroom, left Miss Tang's suite, and took the elevator up one floor.
He walked down the exact same corridor, to the exact same spot, and arrived at the door, ringing the doorbell.
A moment later, the door opened, and it was Xia Xiaobing.
She was wrapped in a white robe, which looked like pajamas, but at the slit in the robe, her shapely legs were revealed. Lu Zhe glanced at it subconsciously, but after another glance, he forced himself to look away and stare directly at her face.
Xia Xiaobing's expression was normal, seemingly as calm as usual, but she was slightly frowning, looking somewhat troubled.
She said, "When I opened the window to let in some fresh air just now, a very large insect suddenly floated in. It looked like a spider. I'm a little scared of these things, so after thinking about it, I can only trouble you with this."
"Spiders?" Lu Zhe couldn't help but wonder, "Could there be spiders on such a high floor?"
Xia Xiaobing drew a circle the size of a coin with her index finger and thumb, emphasizing, "And it's this big!"
Lu Zhe: "So, Mr. Xia, you called me here to... fight spiders?"
Xia Xiaobing handed over a brand new slipper: "Please!"
Lu Zhe grabbed his slippers and followed her into the bedroom. But then he realized he was in trouble, because the bedroom was nearly fifty square meters, containing not only a large bed but also an equally large wardrobe and dressing table. In such a spacious area, finding even a spider the size of a coin was proving quite difficult.
With the overhead light on, Lu Zhe searched around for a long time in the bright light, but still couldn't find the spider.
Suddenly, he heard a "click" sound and subconsciously turned his head to look. He saw Xia Xiaobing standing at the door, her hand just removed from the doorknob.
Lu Zhe immediately understood: "President Xia, you... locked the door?"
Xia Xiaobing casually tapped the light switch on the wall, turning off the bright overhead light. Only the orange bedside lamp remained in the large bedroom. The previously upright atmosphere instantly became ambiguous.
She walked over.
At the collar of the white robe, a glimpse of dazzling white skin was revealed, yet it hadn't crossed the seam. And at the slit in the hem of the robe, the slender silhouette and delicate texture of the woman's legs above and below the knees were visible to him more clearly with every step she took.
She walked up to him, stretched out her hands, placed them on his chest, and pushed him hard.
Xia Xiaobing was clearly much stronger than the two untrained girls. With just that one push, Lu Zhe, who was caught off guard, lost his balance and involuntarily fell backward.
But behind him was not the floor, but a brand new, soft bed.
Xia Xiaobing pushed him down, then pressed herself against him. Lu Zhe felt as if he were the meat inside a hamburger, with a soft bed beneath him and a soft body on top of him…
However, Lu Zhe took a deep breath, held her collarbone and shoulder, and pushed her up.
However, before he could say anything righteously, Xia Xiaobing asked first, "What I'm doing now is just what Miss Tang has already done, isn't it?"
Lu Zhe: "..."
Unexpectedly, I was completely stunned.
Then, Xia Xiaobing murmured in his ear, "If I had done this earlier, say half a month ago, would your reaction have been different?"
Lu Zhe: "..."
Still speechless.
Xia Xiaobing breathed softly in his ear, "It's a pity I was too busy back then, otherwise how could I have let someone else get there first? But it's okay, it's not too late now."
Lu Zhe: "I..."
This time, he was cut off before he could finish speaking.
What silenced him was nothing other than his soft, slightly trembling lips.
Lu Zhe tried to push Xia Xiaobing away forcefully, but then realized that the treadmill in her office wasn't just for show. Once Xia Xiaobing was on top of him, in a dominant position, it was impossible to push her away no matter how hard he tried.
Unless he disregards the risk of hurting her, he must do everything in his power to shake her off, or even resort to physical violence... but Lu Zhe certainly wouldn't do that.
After kissing for a few seconds, Xia Xiaobing suddenly moved her lips away and laughed in his ear, "What, you don't want to? Go ahead and scream, no one will come to save you even if you scream your lungs out."
