Before Zin Leung pulled Karen up by her wrist, Chen Mu hadn't forgotten to remind him, "Also, I need to correct you on another point. It is you guys who will be living off the streets and drowning in a pool of debt. It is you guys who are losing the company and all assets. Not Susu. She's always been the winner."
Hearing his words, Susu blinked slowly as her gaze concentrated on the man who had his arms wrapped around her tightly. Noticing her attention, he smiled and lowered his stare to meet hers. "Did I forget to mention anything else? My dear?"
He loved the stunned expression she had on her face along with the infatuated pair of eyes that was fixated on him. Her mouth opened, but closed the next second. She didn't utter a single word out, instead a smile and kiss to his lips was her response. Taken aback by her sudden shower of affection, his eyes widened, but body had long been tamed by her.
"A kiss wouldn't be enough." He whispered as her lips left his. With her thumb rubbing onto his bottom lips and eyes filled with joy, she whispered, "After they leave." The smile on her lips was enough to make him struggle to fight his inner desires to devour her on the spot. He really wished he had an escalator or a rope of some sort to kick these two clowns out through the window. Since he didn't, he could only wait for them to leave the room.
Seeing their cuddling scene, Karen could feel the lemons and vinegar jars that were being mixed together inside her soul. 'That man was supposed to be mine! He was supposed to love me! That is my seat on his lap! Those words were supposed to be doting me!'
Anger rushed through her bloodstreams, affecting her rationality if she even had any to begin with. She stood up on her own and pointed at Susu, "She's just playing you! What dowry? What wedding gift? How could you say that when she clearly knows that she wont be able to complete shit for you? Hah? What? Are you guys going to flaunt your love and the possible number of childrens that you are going to have? It's impossible!"
The temperature in the room dropped ten degrees fahrenheit. Even though the room was warm, it felt torturously cold to Karen as Susu tilted her head to face hers. Karen wanted to avert her gaze from Susu's eyes, but couldn't. As if her eyes had experienced the eighteen levels of hell and saw the burning and suffrage of evil doers, fear crept up her spine and sunk into her heart.
Her mouth dangled opened as Susu got off Chen Mu's lap and walked towards her with a venomous sneer that is more horrifying than seeing Satan. It was as if Karen had tried to seduce Satan and was caught by Satan's mistress. "Well? What is impossible? Continue. I'd love to hear more."
Her eyes had zero traces of morality in them. Her pressuring aura was enough to soak Karen's outfit with her cold sweat. Susu always treated Karen's childish play as a grain of sand, but this time, Karen has successfully provoked her.
Chen Mu watched as his dominant queen circled around Karen as if she had found her prey with an amused smile on his face. Her displeased tone echoed in Karen's ears, "Don't think that just because I never retaliated in the past means that I am a weakling. You were not worthy enough to make me attack back then. You were just a pinch of salt, but now that you've angered me; I dare you to say what you were about to say."
Karen gathered her courage and faced the mighty looking Susu that she had never seen before, "What? Are you trying to threaten me with your words? Did you think I would be afraid to say it? Huh?"
"Oh! Then do tell the story as my ears would love to hear your loving words. Go on, why would it be impossible for my darling and me to have our own family? Hmm?" Lily already told Susu about the incident about the hospital body report that Karen purposely threw out. Therefore, in Karen's eyes, Susu still doesn't know about her illness.
Susu purposely pressured Karen to see if she dared to expose her illness in front of everyone. If she does, then she can only suck up more responsibility as to how she learned about it. "Well? Go on. Why don't you continue talking like your blabber mouth always loved to do? The number of lies that you spat out was enough to drown an island before. Why keep pausing?"
"Y..You! You just wait! Anyways, you two won't be able to last and everything will be a puddled mess! Yin Susu will never be able to have a family with you, and you'll only be heartbroken. If that's the case, then you should settle for someone who would obediently follow you and spend their lifetime with you!" Karen used all her strength to hold back her tongue.
The pressuring weight on her shoulders had lifted after she spurted that out, but she would've never thought that Chen Mu would say the following words. "And I assume that the so called someone from your small speech just now is directed to yourself who always tried to climb up the social ladder, but failed miserably that your face hurt for the numerous slaps you've received from others."
Karen bit her lips as Susu held in her giggle. Chen Mu got up from his seat and hugged Susu by her waist, "Anyways, however smooth or bumpy this road for our relationship will be, I wouldn't mind to go through each and every step along the journey if the person by my side is Susu. Only her. I don't care whether this relationship would end up being all happy go lucky or heartbroken. At least we are together now, and that's all it matters to me."
Susu hugged him back tightly as she listened to his sweet words, "Who would want an obedient woman to follow me around just to last a lifetime when I could go on adventurous thrill with the woman whom I love deeply? Besides, if I really wanted someone or something to accompany me, I would rather get a dog than have you, Karen Yin."
Karen's face flushed from anger, disappointment, and frustration as she really wished to spurt out that Susu was dying. 'Who the hell would want a dying woman? If I tell him that, he will surely regret it! I'll make him feel more regret and beg me back later on. Just wait. I won't let you guys live in peace.'
Zin Leung shook his head from the unfavorable position they were in. After seeing the couple's intimacy, he knew that there would be no way for the Chen's to take back their words on the business matters. 'If only Karen actually had something worth of threat to them or Susu...but she isn't the Chen family's mistress anyways, so it wouldn't have made much of a difference. Maybe if Karen hadn't made them angry, everything would have been different now.'
Chen Mu called his assistant to bring security guards to escort Zin Leung and Karen out of his room. On their way out, Chen Mu told his assistant, "Starting from now, even if the Yin's kneel at the lobby or force their ways trying to see me or any top executive of the company, you could send them straight to the police. The only Yin who could freely walk in without any alerts or appointments is Yin Susu. Understand?"
Chen Mu fixed Susu's fringe and announced to the world about her existence. "This is a privilege that belongs only to her. Everyone must greet her properly and never rudely unless they want to hand in their resignation letters or get fired on the spot."
"Yes. I will type up the memo and inform every employee about this new rule." Chen Mu's assistant exited and closed the door from behind, leaving the couple by themselves once again.
