29: Can you pretend you didn’t see me in Chapter 28?
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Xue Man felt a sudden jolt in her heart and her face changed unpredictably, If Lu Tianxing intentionally did this, she simply could not resist him, and moreover, if others were to see this, the authority she had gradually built in the security department might vanish without a trace.
Thinking about the impact this incident could have if it spread, Xue Man gritted her teeth and said, “Fine, I agree, now let me go.”
“No problem.”
Lu Tianxing he-heed with a smile, just about to let go of Xue Man, when he heard someone knocking on the office door, followed by the sound of the office door opening.
“Click!”
A woman holding documents, dressed in a uniform suit, looking like a manager’s secretary, walked in from outside.
As soon as she clearly saw the situation inside the office, she froze on the spot, her mouth wide open as if she had seen a ghost, staring bewildered at Lu Tianxing and Xue Man, her face blushing as she possibly recalled something stimulating.
She couldn’t help but think otherwise since the pose Lu Tianxing and Xue Man were in was just too suggestive, Lu Tianxing was holding Xue Man’s foot while Xue Man leaned against the wall, a scene that would make anyone except a fool think crooked.
The woman stared in disbelief at everything, a look of incredulity on her face, as if asking, “What are you doing, why didn’t you lock the door, can you pretend you didn’t see me?”
The woman stood there foolishly, the shock of the scene was just too much for her, more shocking than Bai Zhiqing finding a boyfriend.
Xue Man was now, unbelievably about to enact an action movie in the office with a security guard.
It was known that Xue Man was one of the Bai Group’s big beauties, alongside Lin Qianru, the sales department manager and Bai Zhiqing, the chairman, known as the three beauties of the Bai Group.
Lin Qianru was gentle, the perfect wife and mother type, Bai Zhiqing was coldly beautiful, set high upon a pedestal like a goddess, while Xue Man was known for her fiery temper and violent queen demeanor, a tyrannic female dragon untouchable and untroubled.
There had indeed been many in Bai Group who tried to woo Xue Man, but all, without exception, were taken to the gym and severely dealt with, thereafter, everyone avoided Xue Man like mice from a cat, let alone pursue her.
Within Bai Group, Xue Man had even been rumored to be a frigid woman, a stereotypical matriarch dinosaur, all woman on the outside but devoid of a woman’s heart inside.
But now, all that had completely overturned the rumors; Xue Man, seemingly unable to wait, had started playing with a security guard in the office, and the scene was fiery hot, this might be what was termed bottled-up.
The woman’s gaze moved from Xue Man and finally settled on Lu Tianxing, eyes sparkling with intense curiosity, this guy had actually tamed Xue Man, the female tyrannic dragon, becoming the Dragon Knight, his courage was just too audacious, wasn’t he afraid of post-marital violence?
“Sorry, Minister Xue, I didn’t know you and him…, sorry for the intrusion, I’ve left the documents you wanted outside, I’ll leave now, don’t mind me, just pretend you didn’t see me.”
The woman paused for a moment, quickly regained her composure, and an awkward smile appeared on her face as she slowly backed out of the office, closing the door behind her.
“Ah!
Damn it, I’m going to kill you.”
A hysterical scream broke out, Xue Man finally could no longer restrain herself, allowing her long suppressed fury to explode all at once, her body frantically struggling and her eyes shooting flames at Lu Tianxing.
“Minister Xue, stay calm, you must stay calm, impulsive is the devil, ah, you promised to be gentle with me,” Lu Tianxing said with an awkward smile, releasing Xue Man before she could react and darting to the door, ready to flee at a moment’s notice.
“You’re nothing but a despicable bastard.”
Xue Man took a deep breath, intending to stand up.
Her legs wobbled, nearly causing her to fall, which scared her into quickly steadying herself on the desk.
“Minister Xue, you can’t blame me for this.
How was I supposed to know the door was unlocked?
Besides, if you hadn’t laid your hands on me, none of this would have happened.”
Lu Tianxing looked at Xue Man with an innocent expression.
“So it’s my fault, is it?
Lu Tianxing, let me tell you, this isn’t over.”
Xue Man’s chest heaved violently with anger, the buttons on her clothing stretched tight.
Lu Tianxing was worried for a moment, wondering what would happen if a button flew off.
“I can’t be blamed for this.
I didn’t know the door was unlocked, but next time I’ll make sure to lock it first.
Minister Xue, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now.”
Lu Tianxing felt it was unwise to stay any longer as he might really get into trouble.
“Get out, get out now.
Wait, at three o’clock this afternoon, you’re going out with President Lin.
Remember, take good care of President Lin.
If even a single hair is missing from her head, no matter who’s backing you, pack your things and get out.”
Xue Man felt helpless inside.
She had intended to lecture Lu Tianxing, but ended up being scolded herself.
She glared fiercely at Lu Tianxing and ultimately waved him off dismissively.
No sooner had Lu Tianxing left the Minister’s office than he noticed the unusual stares from around him—some contemptuous, some admiring, and some envious.
Clearly, word of what had just happened had spread.
The security guards looked at Lu Tianxing with admiring eyes, both envious and respectful of him.
They envied Lu Tianxing for conquering the toughest nut, Xue Man, in the company on his first day—his speed at winning her over was nothing short of miraculous, and it explained why he dared to flout company rules and land Ding Hao in the hospital.
Perhaps Ding Hao was being taught a lesson through Lu Tianxing by Xue Man, to make him back off.
They respected Lu Tianxing’s courage.
Xue Man was known as the tyrant witch of the security department, and many brash souls had attempted to tame her only to be beaten down severely.
Yet, Lu Tianxing had successfully tamed this fierce dragon and become the dragon knight, a spirit of fearlessness they couldn’t help but admire.
“It seems we must never offend Lu Tianxing in the security department from now on.”
Every security guard had the same thought: offending Lu Tianxing was tantamount to offending Xue Man.
Everyone knew that a woman in love could be zero on IQ, who knew if Xue Man would start making their lives difficult.
Seeing Lu Tianxing emerge, all the security guards had a flattering smile on their faces, some even offering him a cigarette, warmly calling him Brother Lu.
Lu Tianxing gladly accepted everything that was handed to him, including the cigarettes.
He had been in the security department for a long time; they were all colleagues and there was no need to act superior.
Soon, Lu Tianxing and the surrounding security guards were all in good spirits together.
By twelve o’clock, all the security guards, except those on routine patrols, were headed en masse towards the company cafeteria.
What do you think?
