Teasing Xue Man, Lu Tianxing's mood lifted, and he began to leisurely stroll around Bai's Group, admiring the array of office ladies in their uniform suits, each with a radiant smile on her face. His gaze swept back and forth over their key features, drawing some fierce glares from several women.
It must be said that Bai's Group's quality of beauties was undeniable. At least up to now, Lu Tianxing hadn't spotted a single low-ranking beauty, no wonder innumerable people considered Bai's Group their top choice. Not only were the benefits industry-leading, but the quality of beauties was top-notch as well. Not to mention hooking up with Bai Zhiqing, getting with any of them would make one a winner in life.
As Lu Tianxing was looking around at the beauties, an adorable figure with an innocent face and a hint of Jiangnan water town charm hurried over from the elevator.
"Bang!"
Turning a corner, Lu Tianxing suddenly felt a fragrant breeze hit him, and it felt like he had been bumped by something. Following that, he heard a shrill scream. Instinctively, he reached out his hand and grabbed forward.
In an instant, a silky, soft sensation flooded his senses. Lu Tianxing paused slightly, his arm's grip tightening involuntarily as he lifted the woman into his embrace. The substantial assets that distinctly belonged to a woman heavily pressed against his chest. The distance between them allowed him to feel the breath exhaling from her.
"Ah!"
Due to that motion, another piercing scream rang in his ears. Lan Xin's face flushed crimson, and with a strength she didn't know she had, she frantically pulled away from Lu Tianxing's embrace, staggering several steps back, her arms crossed defensively over her chest as she eyed him warily.
Upon recognizing it was Lu Tianxing, Lan Xin's face turned ashen with rage, waving her fists threateningly as she said, "Not you again, you damn pervert. What do you want? I'm telling you, this is the office, so watch it, or I won't be polite."
Lu Tianxing, with a face full of bewilderment, looked at Lan Xin, who was staring at him as if he was a lecher. He let out a wry smile. This woman's temper was a bit too fierce. He didn't remember ever offending her. Why did she act like she'd seen an enemy every time she saw him, speaking as if she'd eaten gunpowder? Could it be that time of the month?
But the timing didn't make sense. He'd never heard of it coming half a month early.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before?"
Lan Xin, noticing Lu Tianxing's continuous stare, revealed a flicker of anger in her eyes.
"I've seen my share of beauties, but never one with such a terrible temper."
Lu Tianxing shrugged and said, "Look, Secretary Lan, you might want to think this through. Just now, I saved you. If you don't want to thank me, that's one thing, but to blame the savior? Now I remember a saying, 'A dog biting Lu Dongbin not recognizing the good people's hearts.'"
"You're full of it, it was clearly you who bumped into me. No, you're the dog!"
Unable to hold back, Lan Xin swore angrily, fuming as she looked at Lu Tianxing, rubbing the slightly reddened spot on her forehead, muttering, "I don't know what you've been eating to grow so tough."
"Hehe, little beauty, you've got it wrong. This is the capital of a man. Otherwise, how could I satisfy you!"
Lu Tianxing leered with a smile, his gaze roaming over Lan Xin's body.
Upon hearing this, a rage flared up inside Lan Xin. Though she hadn't been out of school long, it didn't mean she didn't understand. Lu Tianxing, that bastard, was clearly harassing her.
Lan Xin clenched her fists, fighting the urge to strike, and said coldly, "You're nothing but scum, a disgrace. Having an employee like you is a stain on the company's reputation. I'll see to it that the chairman fires you."
Lu Tianxing chuckled without minding Lan Xin's attitude and said, "I'm magnanimous, so I'll let it go that you bumped into me and then had the gall to accuse me first."
"What did you say?" Lan Xin, upon hearing this, was furious.
Lu Tianxing, as if oblivious to Lan Xin's raging beauty, smiled and said, "By the way, I almost forgot, little beauty, you've got some extra flab around your waist. I suggest you hit the gym when you're free, or you'll regret it when it turns into a muffin top."
"Bastard, you're the one with the flab, you pervert!"
Lan Xin felt an impulse to go crazy. Although her figure wasn't as perfect as Bai Zhiqing's, with curves that constantly attracted men's gazes, she was still a delicate beauty, a typical woman from the Jiangnan water towns. If she were capable of defeating Lu Tianxing, she would've torn up his despicable mouth.
"So what if there's a bit of flab, I won't look down on you for it," Lu Tianxing added fuel to the fire.
"You..."
Lan Xin, gritting her teeth, glared at Lu Tianxing, about to get physical when it seemed something clicked in her mind. Looking at Lu Tianxing, a schadenfreude smile appeared on her face, "You're done for, just wait to be fired!"
"Fired?"
Lu Tianxing replied with a light smile, "Little beauty, I'm afraid you lack the authority to fire me. Besides, I haven't done anything wrong. The chairman surely won't dismiss an elite employee just because I bumped into you!"
"Pah, you an elite employee? You assaulted Vice Minister Ding, defying your superiors. The chairman has asked me to summon you to the office, obviously to fire you."
Lan Xin narrowed her eyes, her eyes gleaming triumphantly like crescent moons.
"Just for that? Little beauty, I must say your thinking is quite bizarre. Maybe the chairman thinks I'm handsome and capable and plans to make me his personal assistant. Who knows, maybe I'll be the man of the Bai's Group one day. You'll have to show me more respect by then, or I could have you out on your ear in a minute," Lu Tianxing said, stroking his chin with a smile.
"You? You wouldn't dare. So ugly, just too ugly. If I were you, I'd crawl into a hole and hide away, so I wouldn't embarrass myself. A ghost might not scare people, but you frighten people too much. I've found that your photo can ward off evil spirits, and if it's pinned on you, it could deter hooligans," Lan Xin sneered mockingly.
"We'll see. Little beauty, I have something else to tell you. Actually, your figure is already perfect. A nice handful is enough to satisfy a man, no need for padding. Natural is the most beautiful, truly," he said.
Lu Tianxing's gaze fell on Lan Xin's chest, his face breaking into an evil grin. After saying that, he dashed into the elevator.
As she watched Lu Tianxing disappear, Lan Xin slightly startled, glanced down at her chest, a blush crossing her lovely face. Clenching her teeth, she stared in the direction of the elevator, wishing she could tear Lu Tianxing limb from limb if she could turn back time.
"Lu Tianxing, you pervert, just you wait, this isn't over," she seethed.
Lan Xin stamped her foot, cursing to herself how on earth he could have noticed she had padded her chest. Her figure was excellent, nicely curved and today, out of curiosity, she had added a little boost, which indeed made her feel more confident. Unbelievably, in less than half a day, that lecher had seen right through it.
"Lu Tianxing, you pervert, next time I see you, I'll gouge out those eyeballs of yours," Lan Xin thought viciously.
