Chapter 282 You Are Apollo

 

After hearing Su Rui’s words, everyone nearly collapsed with laughter. It seemed his obsession with the phlegm-drinking incident was still quite deep.

Chen Leigang gave Su Rui a resentful and humiliated glance. If it hadn’t been for his deliberate trap, how could he have done something so disgusting?

“Chen Leigang, do you have anything else to say?” Lin Aoxue asked coldly.

Noticing the CEO’s icy gaze, Chen, the top scholar, suddenly felt his heart sink! He finally realized that to satisfy his personal desires, he had completely ruined his future at Bikan!

“CEO, I…” Chen Leigang wanted to make excuses, but found he couldn’t think of any reason, as Li Lijuan was already holding the “sleeping agreement” he had signed with her!

“Don’t bother making excuses anymore,” Su Rui shook his head. “To so openly and brazenly sell out the company’s interests and do such shameful things, you really are something else.”

Lin Aoxue said coldly, “Notify the HR department to immediately process termination paperwork for these two people. Also inform the legal department to pursue Chen Leigang’s liability according to the employment agreement signed upon hiring. For actions that harm the company’s interests, we must not only punish severely but also seek compensation.”

When Chen Leigang heard this, he felt the world spinning and almost couldn’t stand!

He knew that if Bikan Group initiated legal proceedings to pursue his liability, the consequences would be predictable…

A group as large as Bikan wouldn’t care about this small amount of money. The reason for notifying the legal department was simply because Lin Aoxue wanted to vent her anger!

The compensation might not be a big deal for Bikan, but for Chen Leigang, it would definitely not be easy!

“No, this can’t happen! If you fire me, wouldn’t I have slept with him for a month for nothing?” Li Lijuan began crying and shouting. “You need to give me justice, give me justice!”

Lin Aoxue frowned, “Have security drag her out, and she’s never allowed to set foot in Bikan again.”

“CEO, I’ve been wronged! I’ve been wronged! Please, give me one more chance to stay at Bikan Group!” Li Lijuan no longer had the imperious attitude with which she had called Lin Aoxue a “little slut” earlier. Now her expression was full of pleading.

Lin Aoxue said nothing and walked toward her office with a cold face.

Su Rui walked past Li Lijuan and said, “If you don’t act foolishly, you won’t die. If you had been more low-key when entering Bikan, perhaps this situation wouldn’t have happened.”

When Li Lijuan saw Su Rui, her eyes immediately filled with a pleading look: “Please, for my father’s sake, let me stay at Bikan, okay? I’ll go back and take good care of him!”

“Now you’re not accusing me of being after your father’s retirement money?” Su Rui gave a cold laugh. For this kind of woman, he wouldn’t have the slightest compassion, nor would he keep her on for the old director’s sake.

Seeing that her pleading was unsuccessful, Li Lijuan began to show a venomous expression again: “Su Rui, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have ended up like this! This is all your fault! You should die! You should be cut into a thousand pieces!”

This woman’s language was truly vicious. Su Rui wanted to slap her, but thinking of the old director, he forcibly restrained himself.

In Lin Aoxue’s office, she was brewing a cup of Moresby tea. Seeing Su Rui enter, she didn’t look up and said coldly, “Aren’t you going to give me an explanation about this woman?”

In all her life, this was the first time Lin Aoxue had been insulted to her face like that, so her mood was clearly not good.

Su Rui thought about Li Lijuan calling Lin Aoxue a “little slut” and couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing. Indeed, Lin Aoxue was extremely beautiful, with a figure that was slender where it should be and full where it should be. Any man who saw her would have the urge to conquer her, no wonder that dead woman had said such things.

“What are you smiling at?” Lin Aoxue asked irritably.

“You shouldn’t be angry. You should take it as a compliment,” Su Rui smiled. “She said that purely out of jealousy, because you’re just too beautiful.”

“Smooth talker.” Lin Aoxue handed Su Rui a small cup of tea. Being able to drink tea personally brewed by Lin Aoxue was probably something only Su Rui in the whole world could experience.

“I found the old director of Ninghai Fourth Welfare Institute. This Li Lijuan is the old director’s daughter.”

Su Rui told Lin Aoxue the whole detailed process, including Li Lijuan’s lack of filial piety, as well as his chance encounter with Ye Binglan.

After hearing about Li Lijuan’s numerous misdeeds, Lin Aoxue suddenly felt that her previous punishment had been too light.

“Sometime, bring your sister along and let’s have a meal together,” Lin Aoxue suddenly said.

Su Rui was stunned. Could the person saying such words really be Lin Aoxue? He almost couldn’t believe his ears!

Moreover, why did Su Rui get the misconception from her words that Lin Aoxue was considering herself as his sister-in-law?

Those words really sounded like they were family!

Su Rui looked at Lin Aoxue with a strange expression and said, “You haven’t really fallen for me, have you?”

“Do you think that’s possible?”

For some reason, Lin Aoxue’s cheeks turned slightly red. To avoid being teased further by Su Rui, she immediately changed the subject.

“Tianxiang Group isn’t doing well lately,” Lin Aoxue said. “Chairman Song Tianxiang was seriously injured and hospitalized, Song Yili has been missing for days, the whole group is in panic, Ninghai Police Economic Investigation Brigade has entered the company to investigate, and executives are resigning every day. Is all this your doing?”

“My doing? How could that be possible?” Su Rui naturally wouldn’t admit it. “At most, I just wanted to personally beat up Song Yili, but I couldn’t even find the guy.”

“But Song Xuejiao, after returning to Ninghai, didn’t even enter the Song family home before taking a flight out. Right after that, scandalous news about her fiancé Jiang Yibo broke online.” These methods were linked one after another. Although they seemed random on the surface, each step formed a fierce attack on the Song family. Under this intense assault, the Song family and Tianxiang Group were sliding into the abyss faster each day!

Lin Aoxue naturally wouldn’t believe that there was some divine justice punishing the Song family. In her view, the only one who could accomplish all this was Su Rui! This man was too mysterious and too powerful. Even now, Lin Aoxue felt like she needed to look up to him slightly!

Unknowingly, he had done so much for the Lin family, so much for her! How could Lin Aoxue not be moved by this realization?

That step-by-step plan required not only imaginative conception but also near-perfect execution. The connections and power mobilized behind the scenes were unimaginably vast. Su Rui’s efforts had always been in Lin Aoxue’s eyes!

“It really wasn’t me,” Su Rui held the hot flower tea and took a small sip. “Are you so infatuated with me now that you’re seeing me through rose-colored glasses? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I understand that principle.”

“Sun God Apollo, you’re too modest,” Lin Aoxue sat at the desk, not looking at Su Rui but staring at the computer screen.

Su Rui didn’t see that when she asked this question, there was a hint of evasiveness and nervousness in her eyes!

Lin Aoxue had only translated that Western expert’s words by lip-reading, but she wasn’t sure if those words referred to Su Rui! That’s why she had to test him!

After spending so many days together, her curiosity about Su Rui grew stronger. Although she remained outwardly calm as usual, the strong desire to explore in her heart couldn’t be stopped at all!

When Su Rui heard the words “Sun God Apollo” come from Lin Aoxue’s mouth, he couldn’t hold his tea cup steady and it flipped over directly onto his crotch! The heat made him jump up immediately!

Looking at Su Rui with a large wet patch on his crotch, Lin Aoxue could barely suppress her amusement. The smile on her face, though faint, was extremely beautiful. From Su Rui’s reaction, she could see that her guess was correct.

Su Rui was the Sun God Apollo!

Although Lin Aoxue didn’t know what this so-called Sun God actually meant, judging from how those Western experts feared him like a tiger, this name undoubtedly carried extreme weight!

“What… what do you know?” Su Rui’s expression was somewhat strained.

In his impression, Lin Aoxue never fought battles she wasn’t sure of winning, and she never spoke without factual basis! Since she said it, it meant she knew!

But at this moment, Su Rui had no idea that Lin Aoxue was actually pretending to be calm while testing him!

“I don’t know anything,” Lin Aoxue smiled slightly, continuing to stare at the screen, not letting Su Rui see the nervousness in her eyes.

“Did those two idiots Jin Taizhu and Holman tell you something?” Su Rui thought this was highly possible. If they considered Lin Aoxue as his “wife,” they would certainly have told her everything.

“They didn’t say anything. I guessed it myself.”

The more Lin Aoxue spoke like this, the more Su Rui believed that it was those two foolish subordinates who had sold him out!

“These two bastards, I’ll definitely deal with them when I get back,” Su Rui said through gritted teeth.

A smile appeared on Lin Aoxue’s face. It seemed she was getting closer and closer to the truth.

…

In a villa in the eastern suburbs of Ninghai, Li Huazhong was anxiously pacing back and forth. A night had passed, and Master Yu still hadn’t returned. Could he have died at the hands of that young man?

Li Huazhong was very clear about Master Yu’s strength, but so much time had passed without any news, the possibility of him meeting with misfortune was very high.

Just thinking about that man younger than himself snatching away Ye Binglan made Li Huazhong so angry he wanted to smash things!

“Haven’t those people sent out to gather information returned yet?”

“Young Master, they haven’t come back. They’re probably still looking for Master Yu.”

Li Huazhong slammed the table: “Damn it, we’re at the most critical juncture, Master Yu can’t have any accidents!”

Although he didn’t like the old man who always kept an eye on him, Master Yu was undoubtedly one of the strongest fighters in the Yuan Wei Gang! If they lost him, the difficulty of conquering Ninghai in this southern expedition would increase twofold!

Just at this moment, the villa’s main door suddenly opened, and a figure walked in. It was Master Yu.

“Master Yu, you’re finally back!” Li Huazhong’s heart finally settled down.

However, Master Yu didn’t answer him. Instead, he opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood!
