Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After work at night, Li An’an and her colleagues left the office together. Suddenly, she felt that working here was actually quite good.
“An’an, don’t forget to bring pickled vegetables tomorrow! Please! I’ll get you the best cake downstairs in exchange!”
“I’ll buy you milk tea.”
Her colleague chattered and were almost drooling.
Li An’an made an “okay” gesture. Just as they were about to leave the office, they saw Li Cheng standing outside.
“Li An’an, go to the CEO’s office! The CEO is looking for you!”
Li An’an had no choice but to say goodbye to her colleagues and headed to Chu Yichen’s office under their sympathetic gazes. He couldn’t possibly be expecting her to go back to his home and cook, right? It was already time to pick up the kids. The three children would be very anxious if they didn’t see her.
“President Chu, is there anything else? It’s time to get off work.”
Chu Yichen was smoking by the window. The blinds in the room were drawn closed and it was a little dark inside. Chu Yichen stood in the shadows. He cast a sinister sidelong glance at Li An’an, scaring her into silence.
Chu Yichen was still angry. The anger from the morning was still lingering. “What did you do in the afternoon?” Chu Yichen asked calmly.
“I ate with my colleagues and chatted. I didn’t do anything.” Li An’an felt guilty. She must not let anyone find out about her meeting with Lu Ming.
As soon as she finished speaking, the temperature in the room dropped. Chu Yichen’s gaze was icy. “Do you know the consequences of lying to me? I let you off last time, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be so lucky the second time!”
Li An’an was extremely displeased.
Was Chu Yichen a pervert? Although he did not remember sleeping with her before, he had just kissed her in the afternoon. How could he be so heartless?
“No, I really didn’t.” She wouldn’t tell anyone about Lu Ming. It would be troublesome for her and Lu Ming.
Chu Yichen strode towards her and pressed her down on the table. He bent over slightly and trapped her with his body. His mind kept replaying the scene of her meeting Lu Ming today. When she returned, he had asked Li Cheng to investigate. As expected, they had a collaboration with the Lu Corporation recently, and this was the reason why Lu Ming had arranged for her to be by his side.
“What’s going on?” Li An’an was nervous. Chu Yichen seemed to have lost control. His eyes were burning with anger, like an enraged lion. Even the corners of his lips seemed icy. “What’s wrong with you? I didn’t offend you. I was very obedient at work today. I’m a very obedient and good employee. You can’t treat a good employee like this.”
Chu Yichen laughed at her words. “You have tens of thousands of yuan in salary, typing and drinking milk tea. Is this your definition of a good employee? Li An’an, do you believe that if I exposed your salary, you will drown in the spit of your colleagues in the same department?”
“No, don’t go overboard!” Li An’an was instantly worried. It hadn’t been easy for her to establish a harmonious working relationship with them. She couldn’t let it be ruined. Besides, she liked Xiao Zhang and the rest very much. They weren’t scheming and were harmonious.
Chu Yichen stared at her fearful and conflicted expression. He took a deep breath and the anger on his face disappeared. The darkness in his eyes gradually faded and he regained his usual sternness and coldness. He let go of her hand and got up to straighten his suit.
Li An’an got up in a hurry. She looked down and saw that the button on her collar had been ripped off. Fortunately, the shirt had a high opening, so it didn’t matter even if the button fell off. Chu Yichen was such a violent man.
“Go back and prepare dinner!”
“I don’t want to. It’s late. I want to go home. I refuse to work overtime.” Li An’an refused firmly.
Chu Yichen smirked. “Do you have the right to refuse?”
Li An’an was furious. Chu Yichen took advantage of the fact that she was a flexible and adaptive person. What a scheming man! But why was he so angry a minute ago and in the blink of an eye, acted like nothing had happened? She felt a little uneasy..
