Su Chen took Sara's hand and walked towards the door. Anyone close to them automatically stepped back a few paces.
Just as they reached the door, a series of exclamations and noisy voices came from inside. Out of curiosity, Sara glanced back only to find Julia ripping her own clothes while lunging at a man beside her…
The man was taken aback and hastily dodged away. Julia then continued to throw herself at another man, and by this time, most of her clothes had been ripped off, revealing a sudden glimpse of spring!
Initially, Sara felt that Su Chen had been a bit too harsh, but now, after witnessing this scene, she thought the earlier lesson wasn't harsh enough!
If it hadn't been for Su Chen, she might have been in Julia's current state by now, no, Kaila would certainly have taken her to a hotel, and her fate would have been easy to imagine!
If such a thing really happened, she would rather die!
Su Chen took Sara to a barbecue stall, had some late-night snacks, drank a few bottles of beer, and then sent her back to the hotel.
Sara was reluctant to go back, but Su Chen had Lin Ruoxue's previous words, "Come back early," on his mind.
It took Su Chen over ten minutes to coax the tiresome Sara upstairs, then he hailed a cab back to Lin Ruoxue's villa.
Upon entering the house, Su Chen found Lin Ruoxue lying on her side on the couch, leaning against one end, wearing an asymmetrical neckline nightgown.
This position fully exposed her slender legs to the air. Because of her sleeping posture, coupled with the asymmetrical neckline nightie she wore, the spring view at her neckline also treated Su Chen to a delightful sight.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Su Chen standing not far from her.
And his gaze was fixed intently on a certain part of her, as if he were looking at a delicious dish…
Lin Ruoxue felt a bit strange, looked down at herself, and then realized why he had that expression.
Lin Ruoxue shot Su Chen a reproachful glance, then sat up and straightened her clothes.
"You can't blame me for this." Su Chen sat down on the couch, lit a cigarette, and said, "Confucius himself said that food and sex are nature's dictates; this only proves that my wife is too beautiful. If you looked like no pig would snout and no dog would gnaw at you, I wouldn't even look your way if you paid me!"
Lin Ruoxue's face turned slightly red, thinking to herself how sweet this guy's words had become.
"Alright, go take a bath and sleep, I'm tired too," Lin Ruoxue said, and then she got up and walked upstairs.
"Hey, you weren't waiting for me all this time, were you?" Su Chen's "annoying" voice came from behind.
Lin Ruoxue paused for a moment, then hummed without turning her head:
Su Chen watched Lin Ruoxue's beautiful back, rubbed his chin, feeling that their relationship had improved quite a bit from before.
If this were before, such a conversation would have been impossible; both of them would simply have treated each other like air.
"Seems like having such a wife isn't too bad," Su Chen murmured, "If possible, living on wouldn't be too bad either."
After returning to his own room, Su Chen continued his cultivation practice, but today he had no breakthroughs; he only consolidated his previous Realm a bit more.
Su Chen wasn't in a hurry though; he knew that maintaining the pace of progress like before was impossible. Cultivation was ; the further one got, the more difficult it became.
For instance, he had previously been stuck at the half-step Meridian Expansion Realm for as long as two years without a true breakthrough to the Meridian Expansion Realm.
When it was a little past five in the morning, Su Chen ended his night of cultivation, took a shower, and started making breakfast.
After the past two days, Lin Ruoxue wasn't surprised anymore and simply enjoyed the fruits of Su Chen's busy efforts, even making a few comments here and there.
Seeing the thaw in the relationship between the two, Wang Ma was in a great mood, her face always adorned with an ambiguous smile.
After breakfast, it was Lin Ruoxue who left first. Su Chen wasn't the president and didn't have the self-discipline to arrive early and stay late; as long as he arrived a bit before the bell and wasn't late, that was enough.
"Brothers who haven't had breakfast yet, come and get it quickly."
Su Chen made a lot of breakfast and didn't want to waste it, so he packed it up and brought it for the security department's staff.
"I haven't eaten yet!"
"And me, save one for me!"
Upon hearing Su Chen's invitation, the security department became immediately enthusiastic, and the big bag of food Su Chen brought was quickly divided up.
"This tastes so good, where did you buy this stuff, Su Chen?"
"Exactly, I've never had such tasty soup dumplings before. Tell me where to get them, I'll buy some next time."
"Sorry, you can't buy these; I made them myself!"
"You're not kidding, are you?"
"Su Chen, who knew you had this skill!"
"Su Chen, if I were a woman, I'd marry you just for your cooking skills."
"Keep dreaming! With your genes, even if you were a woman, you'd be no better than Zhu Bajie! I wouldn't want you even if you paid me!"
Just as everyone was enjoying themselves, a muffled grunt came through:
"What are you doing? What's going on? It's work time, who allowed you to have breakfast!"
"Vice Director Cao, there are still ten minutes before work!" Su Chen glanced at the sneaky-faced Cao Kun, "Everyone, carry on eating."
"No eating!" When Cao Kun saw that everyone continued to eat, he felt his face couldn't hold the embarrassment, "Even if it's not work time yet, this is the company, an office place, is this where you're supposed to have breakfast?"
"Whoever dares to continue eating, say goodbye to this month's bonus."
Cao Kun swept a gaze over everyone, and seeing that they all hesitated, he couldn't help but smirk triumphantly, although that smirk looked rather lecherous!
"Oh, is that so?" Su Chen said with a smile that was not quite a smile, looking at Cao Kun, "Just now, I passed by someone's office and saw that very someone feasting away inside! I wonder if we're applying the same rules to everyone?"
"Who are you talking about?" Cao Kun jumped up like a caught fox, "Make yourself clear."
"The guilty one knows." Su Chen snorted, "You haven't even wiped the grease from the corner of your mouth clean yet!"
"Right, I saw it too. If you're going to deduct bonuses, it should be for all of us!"
"Indeed, otherwise we won't accept it!"
"If you only deduct ours, we'll go to the president and let him judge!"
The staff had always looked down upon and couldn't stand Cao Kun, the sycophant. Now with Su Chen taking the lead, everyone joined together in their defiance against Cao Kun.
