Chapter 135 Laboratory Mutation
“Deducting one-third? How dare you, Lin Aoxue!” Su Rui immediately became angry: “I only make 3,000 yuan in salary, if you deduct 1,000 I’ll have 2,000 yuan left, just 2,000 yuan! This is Ninghai! One of the most expensive cities in all of China! How am I supposed to survive? Eat steamed buns every day?”
“Although I don’t really need that 1,000 yuan salary, this is about a man’s dignity! I may have thick skin, but I’m not a shameless person!”
Lin Aoxue glanced at him and said coldly: “You’re lying.”
To claim he had dignity was truly shameless.
Su Rui: “…”
“If you don’t accept it, I’ll deduct another thousand,” Lin Aoxue said coldly, watching Su Rui’s frantic expression.
“Go ahead and deduct it, why don’t you just take away all my salary!” Su Rui really couldn’t stand this girl anymore, give her an inch and she’ll take a mile. Damn it, you still haven’t fulfilled the bet from when I checked your room last time! Don’t you believe I’ll spank you right now?
“Don’t think I wouldn’t dare to deduct it all,” Lin Aoxue didn’t back down at all.
Su Rui looked at Lin Aoxue and curled his lips, thinking to himself: “A good man doesn’t fight with women, why should I argue with you? Looking at you like this, you think I can’t handle you?”
“Tea is a great way to stay alert,” Su Rui laughed, his eyes catching an exquisite teacup on the desk, immediately changing the subject.
The delicate teacup was steaming, with a fully bloomed Mosby flower floating inside, looking extremely pleasing to the eye.
Lin Aoxue sensed something was wrong and followed Su Rui’s gaze, immediately becoming alert!
This was a cup she had acquired from a folk artist in a small European town. If Su Rui took it away again, she really wouldn’t have any favorite cups left to use!
But no matter how fast she moved, she couldn’t be faster than Su Rui’s hand. He snatched the cup of flower tea, laughed, and took a big gulp!
After taking a big sip, Su Rui didn’t swallow it, but stared wide-eyed at the angry Lin Aoxue.
Then, a flush of red rose from his neck, instantly spreading across his entire face, as if he had been boiled!
Su Rui’s face turned red, and he couldn’t control himself as he opened his mouth, spraying a mouthful of flower tea all over Lin Aoxue’s desk!
“Ah!”
A blood-curdling scream rang out!
Su Rui covered his steaming mouth and roared: “Lin Aoxue, you’re deliberately trying to harm me! This is boiling water, boiling water!”
The entire floor could hear Su Rui’s painful roar.
“I never said it wasn’t boiling water. You grabbed it and drank it yourself.”
Lin Aoxue watched Su Rui jumping around in pain and could no longer hold back. A smile gently bloomed on her face, like a spring pond rippled by the wind.
Sparkling and dazzling, breathtakingly beautiful.
Su Rui was somewhat stunned by the sight, seemingly forgetting about his slightly swollen mouth and tongue.
Lin Aoxue tossed him a box of tissues and said: “Clean up my desk.”
After speaking, she went to sit on the sofa, crossing her legs and looking out the window.
Su Rui acknowledged his own mistake and reluctantly began wiping the desk with the tissues. However, being able to admire Lin Aoxue’s exquisite beauty while cleaning the desk was actually quite a pleasant experience.
After cleaning the desk, Su Rui continued holding the teacup and sat down beside Lin Aoxue, with only ten centimeters between them.
Lin Aoxue felt a bit awkward but didn’t move away.
She looked at Su Rui and said: “Tianxiang Group didn’t send anyone to attend the industry annual meeting this time.”
The Tianxiang Group Lin Aoxue mentioned naturally referred to Song Yili and his father’s company. They were ranked among the top pharmaceutical groups in Ninghai and even nationwide. Like Bikang, they were also a vice-chairman enterprise of the China Pharmaceutical Association. The fact that Tianxiang Group didn’t attend the annual industry banquet was shocking and unexpected.
Su Rui saw that Lin Aoxue wanted to chat with him and immediately felt great. It seemed his beautiful woman training plan was already showing initial results.
“It’s normal that they didn’t attend. It would be abnormal if they had.”
Su Rui thought to himself, Song Yili had one kidney kicked into failure by him, so he must be lying in bed recovering. It would be surprising to see him at the banquet.
If this guy dared to appear before him again, he would beat him every time he saw him, every single time…
“I know Song Yili was injured,” Lin Aoxue turned to look into Su Rui’s eyes: “Was it you who did it?”
“Yes, it was me.” Su Rui didn’t try to hide it from Lin Aoxue. It wasn’t much of a secret anyway, since Li Yang had openly come to surrender to him that day, which was enough to explain many things.
“Why?”
“Because he has feelings for you, and I figured I couldn’t have such a rival, so I beat him up.”
A black line appeared on Lin Aoxue’s forehead again. This annoying guy, couldn’t he ever speak properly? What rival? A dog’s mouth truly can’t produce ivory!
“Speak normally. I know that’s not the reason,” Lin Aoxue said.
She wasn’t a fool. Since the day gang leader Li Yang brought his men to surrender to Su Rui, she had understood many things.
“That is the reason.” Su Rui patted his chest: “Because my goddess cannot be violated. Violating her is violating me.”
If Lin Aoxue had enough strength, she would definitely have thrown Su Rui down from the dozen or so floors by now.
“If you don’t tell the truth, you won’t receive any salary for the next half year.” Lin Aoxue covered her forehead, really not wanting to look at this annoying guy. It seemed that just looking at him one more time would pollute her eyeballs.
“Because I had a bit of friction with him.”
Su Rui didn’t intend to continue being shameless. He simply said this without going into details. Some things were too dark and better not to tell Lin Aoxue.
The repeated interception and tracking of Lin Aoxue were all done by Song Yili’s men. Just for this point alone, Su Rui was being too lenient by only destroying one of his kidneys. Killing him wouldn’t have been excessive.
But these things, he really didn’t want Lin Aoxue to know, for reasons he wasn’t clear about.
Seeing that Su Rui didn’t want to elaborate, Lin Aoxue didn’t press further: “Song Tianxiang invited me to dinner. I haven’t given him a definite answer yet.”
“He invited you to dinner?” Su Rui raised his eyebrows.
“Yes, should I go or not?” Lin Aoxue looked at Su Rui with a questioning gaze. Somehow, she had unconsciously developed this habit.
“Go, why not? It’s a free meal!”
“Your views are always different from others.”
“Of course, I’ve always been unconventional.” Su Rui thought for a moment and said: “Why is this old man inviting you to dinner? Could it be that since his son failed to woo you, the father is continuing the attempt? Do they think this is a relay race?”
Now, Lin Aoxue didn’t want to throw Su Rui down the building anymore; she wanted to jump down herself.
“Su Rui!” Lin Aoxue slammed the table and said angrily: “I’m discussing serious matters with you. If you’re not going to be serious, then let’s end this conversation!”
“Come on, look at you, appearing all cold but having such a short temper, getting angry at the slightest thing! I was just joking, okay?”
“I’m sorry, but I really can’t understand your sense of humor.”
With that, Lin Aoxue stood up and said: “I’m going to the lab now, make yourself at home. Also, you can’t take the cup away.”
“Going to check on your triazolam again?”
“Of course.” After saying this, Lin Aoxue left the office first, seemingly quite comfortable with Su Rui being in her office.
Since Lin Aoxue was gone, there wasn’t much point in Su Rui staying. He drank a few sips of the flower tea, left the cup for Lin Aoxue, and closed the door as he left.
Speaking of which, drinking tea from a beautiful woman’s cup, this kind of indirect kiss, really felt quite nice!
Back at his desk, Su Rui saw the pitiful Cao Tianping, who was troubled by the matter of Tang Nilanduo’s concert.
He had previously received Su Rui’s verbal promise to help him get a front-section ticket, so he hadn’t continued to book tickets. Now all the tickets on the official website had been sold out, and Su Rui was saying he definitely wouldn’t give him the ticket, which made Cao Tianping quickly become depressed.
After all, Tang Nilanduo was his life!
“Brother Rui, no, Master Rui, please be merciful, be magnanimous, and help me get a ticket!” Cao Tianping squatted beside Su Rui, shamelessly shaking his leg, pleading.
“If you want me to help you get a ticket, it’s not impossible,” Su Rui’s eyes turned as he said.
“Good, good, good, whatever conditions you have, I’ll agree to them all!”
Su Rui glanced at him and said: “Go make Chen Leigang drink another cup of phlegm, and I’ll get you a ticket.”
“That’s not possible! I have no grudge against him, and besides, didn’t he already drink one cup before?” Just mentioning this made Cao Tianping feel his stomach churning.
“You may not have a grudge against him, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a grudge against you. The phlegm he drank last time was yours, how could he not hate you? This involves a question of taking sides,” Su Rui patted his shoulder.
“But colleagues should get along harmoniously. Why should I provoke him for no reason?”
Su Rui glanced at Chen Leigang, who was pretending to organize client data on his computer but was actually secretly peering in their direction.
“Actually, I really wanted to reconcile with him,” Su Rui sighed softly.
“Come on, you made him drink a cup of phlegm. It’s already good if he doesn’t consider you a lifelong enemy, how could you reconcile?” Cao Tianping curled his lips.
“You fat idiot, whose side are you on?” Su Rui glared at him.
“Of course I’m on your side.” Cao Tianping immediately said sheepishly. Joking aside, for Tang Nilanduo’s concert ticket, what was integrity worth?
Su Rui continued in a low voice: “I’ve really noticed that this guy has been looking at us strangely these past two days, like he’s full of bad intentions, definitely plotting something.”
Cao Tianping said: “Is it that serious? I haven’t noticed him looking at me.”
“That’s because you’re too dull. You have so much fat on your face that your eyes are almost squeezed shut! How can you see anything!”
Su Rui continued patting Cao Tianping’s shoulder and said: “So it’s settled. You make him drink another cup of phlegm, and I’ll get you a front-section ticket. What do you think? It’s up to you.”
Cao Tianping was about to say something when suddenly a faint sound reached his ears!
As the fat team leader was trying to identify the sound, he saw Su Rui with a grave expression!
The next second, Su Rui had vanished from his seat! He rushed like a whirlwind toward the door of the R&D center laboratory!
