Chapter 006 You Said It Yourself
Just as it was almost time to get off work, Chairman Lin Fuzhang unexpectedly came to the marketing department in person. Many sales staff, seeing the big boss arrive, stood up excitedly to greet him, feeling somewhat honored and surprised. Director Xue Ruyun also came out of her office to welcome him.
“Welcome, Chairman, to guide our work in the marketing department.” The charming Xue Ruyun really didn’t know why Lin Fuzhang had suddenly come here. Could it be that he was dissatisfied with the marketing department’s recent work?
“It’s nothing, carry on with your work. I’m just here to invite Brother Su for dinner,” Lin Fuzhang said with a chuckle.
“Brother Su?” Xue Ruyun couldn’t immediately recall who that was, then suddenly a flash of realization crossed her mind. “Could it be that new employee Su Rui?”
By the time she figured it out, Lin Fuzhang had already walked up to Su Rui amid the astonished gazes of everyone. With a warm yet somewhat awkward expression, he said, “Brother Su, I never expected that stubborn girl Aoxue would be so reckless as to assign you to this position. Let’s go back and discuss giving you a different position.”
The nearby staff were in complete shock. Who exactly was this new employee that the chairman would personally arrange a position for him! And there even seemed to be a hint of trying to please him!
Meanwhile, Team Leader Cao Tianping of Business Group One stood nearby, too shocked to speak! He never imagined that the new employee he had just been scolding would turn out to be someone favored by the chairman!
Su Rui casually replied, “It’s no big deal. I’m quite comfortable in the marketing department. It’s just that CEO Lin gave me a rather heavy task—to achieve one million in sales within a week, or pack up and leave.”
Su Rui thought to himself, since Lin Aoxue was trying to mess with him, he wouldn’t miss this rare opportunity to complain about her!
When Lin Fuzhang heard that Bikang’s guardian might be driven away by his daughter, anger immediately rose within him. Ignoring the many subordinates around, he angrily said, “One million in a week? Absolutely ridiculous! That girl is getting more and more out of line! I need to have a serious talk with her!”
“Old Lin, why get so worked up? Don’t you understand your daughter’s temperament by now?” Seeing Lin Fuzhang angry made Su Rui feel great. “How about this: I’ll stay here, but have Lin Aoxue reduce my sales target a bit. After all, I didn’t come to Bikang to sell medicine.”
“Yes, yes, of course,” Lin Fuzhang said apologetically. He warmly held Su Rui’s hand and said, “Brother Su, I’ll host a dinner tonight—first to welcome you, and second to apologize on behalf of Aoxue.”
Everyone was incredibly envious. Being personally invited to dinner by Bikang’s chairman—what an honor!
But unexpectedly, Su Rui seemed somewhat troubled. He pulled Cao Tianping over and said:
“Old Lin, I’ve already made plans with my direct supervisor, Team Leader Cao, for dinner tonight. I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you.”
“Cough, cough, cough, cough!”
When Cao Tianping heard this, he choked on his saliva!
What was wrong with this guy! This was the chairman inviting him to dinner! No matter how important Cao might be, he couldn’t compare to the chairman! This guy clearly didn’t want the Group One leader to continue working at Bikang!
Not only Cao Tianping, but even Xue Ruyun nearby could barely contain her amusement. This gorgeous mature woman’s eyes sparkled with interest as she looked at Su Rui.
“Well, Chairman, I just remembered that tonight is my ex-girlfriend’s birthday, so I can’t take Su Rui to dinner. It will have to be another day.” After saying this, Cao Tianping wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly fled!
If he stayed any longer, who knows what other tricks Su Rui might pull!
…
Sitting in Lin Fuzhang’s luxury car, Su Rui glanced at the cold-faced Lin Aoxue beside him, thinking that this woman must have experienced some trauma to always maintain such an icy demeanor. Even for an ice beauty, she was cold enough to freeze someone solid!
Plus, after Lin Fuzhang had criticized Lin Aoxue earlier, she couldn’t even be bothered to look at Su Rui.
“Old Lin, there’s something I need your help with,” Su Rui remembered the listening device installed in the button and took the initiative to say, “I need information on all of Bikang’s competitors, especially those companies competing most fiercely for market share.”
“No problem. Xia Qing, help prepare the materials for Su Rui when you get back tonight.”
“Okay.” Xia Qing sat in the front passenger seat, and from Su Rui’s angle, he could see her snow-white neck, which was truly a beautiful sight.
Su Rui continued, “I have a few more questions for Old Lin and niece Aoxue.”
Lin Aoxue glared at Su Rui, while Lin Fuzhang looked somewhat helplessly amused.
“Who usually arranges your clothes? In other words, who do you think would have the best opportunity to replace your button with a listening device?”
At this question, Lin Aoxue’s delicate eyebrows furrowed. She knew this was a serious matter that needed thorough investigation. Otherwise, having a spy around would have unthinkable consequences!
“Let me think about it carefully.” Lin Aoxue typically trusted those she employed and didn’t employ those she distrusted. Asking her to actively suspect her subordinates was truly difficult.
Su Rui turned to Lin Fuzhang: “Old Lin, who normally has access to your office?”
“I have dedicated cleaning staff for my office, just two fixed people, which should be relatively easy to investigate,” Lin Fuzhang had already taken action. “I’ve had one of them detained for questioning, and the other resigned a few days ago. I’m having people look for him now.”
Su Rui’s eyes lit up: “Hmm, the second person is highly suspicious. We must find him quickly. Starting now, I need to regularly inspect your offices and residences to ensure security.”
“That’s fine. Tonight, I’ll trouble Brother Su to thoroughly check all our living quarters.”
At the thought of visiting Lin Aoxue’s bedroom tonight, Su Rui felt somewhat excited—of course, this might just be typical male nature.
The Junlan Kaibin Resort Hotel was the most luxurious vacation hotel in all of Ninghai, boasting six-star hardware standards. Lin Fuzhang had arranged the welcome banquet here, clearly showing his sincerity.
Su Rui looked up at the extremely luxurious Junlan Kaibin with its private beach and scenic mountain, smacking his lips, and said, “Old Lin, this meal must cost quite a bit, right?”
Lin Fuzhang chuckled, “Brother Su, money is not an issue. You’ve come all the way from abroad specifically to help us, and I don’t know how to express my gratitude. Tonight, let’s drink to our heart’s content!”
But unexpectedly, Su Rui declined: “Old Lin, I’d better not drink. Drinking interferes with work, and I still need to check your and Aoxue’s rooms tonight.”
Hearing this, Lin Aoxue immediately glared at Su Rui.
Deep admiration flashed in Lin Fuzhang’s eyes: “Good, good, Brother Su speaks wisely! Tonight I’ll drink alcohol, and you’ll have tea. That’s settled, haha!”
The servers at Junlan Kaibin were quite high-class, each wearing high-slit cheongsams, their snow-white thighs swaying in the light. Su Rui’s eyes kept wandering around, occasionally whistling, appearing very casual and relaxed.
“Hmph, pervert!” Lin Aoxue said coldly. She had observed all of Su Rui’s actions and was quite contemptuous.
“Appreciation of beauty is human nature. You’re not the only woman here. What, are you jealous that I’m looking at others?” Su Rui countered sharply.
Lin Fuzhang saw all this but said nothing. He knew his daughter’s temperament best—she was always extremely stubborn. If she didn’t recognize the seriousness of an issue herself, no one could change her mind.
This personality sometimes worked wonders in the business world but was extremely unsuitable for personal life—truly a double-edged sword.
The location Lin Fuzhang had reserved was one of Junlan Kaibin’s few ocean-view terraces. The spacious terrace was not far from the seaside, with stairs leading directly to the beach below. Various scenic views were visible, truly breathtaking.
Su Rui’s behavior, however, seemed out of place amid such beautiful scenery. Every time a pretty server came by, he would pull her aside to chat, making them giggle. Some even began to give him flirtatious glances.
Lin Aoxue seemed unable to tolerate these joyful laughs. She put down her glass, stood up, and walked away.
“Where are you going?” Su Rui also stood up.
“Restroom,” Lin Aoxue replied without looking back.
Su Rui immediately followed her, staying close behind.
“Don’t follow me.”
“I can’t do that. I must protect your safety.” Su Rui paused, then added four more words: “Personal protection.”
Lin Aoxue’s disgust for this guy’s behavior reached its limit. Unable to tolerate it anymore, she suddenly turned around and said, “Have you had enough?”
But Lin Aoxue didn’t expect that Su Rui was following her so closely. When she turned, Su Rui was caught off guard, and they collided face to face!
Su Rui only felt two soft mounds briefly press against his chest muscles before separating. He instinctively reached out with both hands, grabbing Lin Aoxue’s slender waist to prevent her from falling backward!
However, this made their posture extremely intimate!
Su Rui and Lin Aoxue’s abdomens were pressed tightly together. One of his hands was around her slender waist, while the other accidentally landed between her waist and hip curve!
“The feeling is amazingly good!” Sensing the incredible elasticity, Su Rui couldn’t help but exclaim. He hadn’t misjudged at the airport exit—this woman’s figure and face together truly made her Ninghai business circle’s number one beauty.
So, Su Rui instinctively squeezed Lin Aoxue’s waist once… Yes, it was completely unconscious, even he himself didn’t realize it.
If other men in Ninghai saw Su Rui’s actions right now, they would probably form a mob to hack him to pieces!
“Ah!” Lin Aoxue let out a sharp cry when squeezed, seemingly flustered, with anger in her eyes. She pushed against Su Rui’s chest with both hands, “Let go of me!”
“Are you sure?” Su Rui coughed twice and asked.
“Let go now!”
“Alright then, you asked for it.” Su Rui reluctantly removed his hands from Lin Aoxue’s waist.
“Ah!”
Having already lost her balance, her body began falling toward the ground!
