When Lin Xiaotian reached the villa entrance, he saw Chu Qiaoyu, trembling as if frightened, slumped on the ground, looking like a helpless little lamb.
"Big beauty, why are you so scared?"
"You... did you do this?" Chu Qiaoyu's voice trembled violently.
Lin Xiaotian's face still wore a bright smile. "That's right, I did it. But this is just between us, don't go blabbing outside, or you might be invited for tea."
"If no one knows I was here, then this matter will be completely covered up."
Chu Qiaoyu's face turned as pale as paper, tears welling up in her eyes. "What exactly did you do to Mr. Tang? How is he now?"
At this moment, she looked like a pitiful woman.
And she was so frightened that her face had lost all color.
A sense of vulnerability emanated from her unconsciously. Although she was over thirty, she looked like a ripe peach at this moment.
Making one want to pluck it.
A cold glint flashed in Lin Xiaotian's eyes, but it lasted only for a moment.
"Big beauty, you're so beautiful, it's a bit of a blight on the scenery staying here. How about I take you to the company?"
"My wife said she has a good relationship with you, but you rarely see each other, and you're usually busy. So, after you meet my wife, she'll definitely be happy too."
"But you must keep this place a secret. After all, we're practically family now."
Chu Qiaoyu nodded quickly without hesitation. "I absolutely won't say anything about what happened here. Please don't kill me to silence me."
"I know you came to find Mr. Tang, so you must have some enmity between you. I want to get involved in your affairs. It was just a small transaction between him and me. He helped me before, and he's always been pursuing me. Plus, I've been living alone for so many years, so..."
"So I just wanted someone to lean on. I didn't expect to have some conflict with you before."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lin Xiaotian's face.
"What kind of relationship do you have? I don't want to know and I'm too lazy to inquire. Alright, I'll take you to the company now."
After speaking, Lin Xiaotian directly helped her up and walked towards the parking spot.
As Chu Qiaoyu sat in the back seat, a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes.
But this expression only lasted for a moment.
Panic and fear were perfectly acted out by her.
This was also her most proud skill. She believed that her acting prowess would definitely fool Lin Xiaotian.
As Lin Xiaotian drove, he glanced at her in the rearview mirror, and then a bright smile appeared on his face. "Big beauty, if I call you aunt, I feel like I'm calling you too old. You look like an older sister standing next to my wife."
"An older sister as gentle, beautiful, kind, and lovely as you, you'll have to take care of me more in the future."
"Honestly, if I didn't already have a wife, I'd even want to pursue you."
Hearing this, although Chu Qiaoyu kept her head lowered, a barely perceptible smile curved her lips.
Men were indeed such scoundrels.
The car quickly arrived at the company. After getting out, she hurried upstairs, seemingly showing even more fear towards Lin Xiaotian, like a frightened little white rabbit.
Lin Xiaotian didn't follow. He didn't know what Chu Qiaoyu would say to his wife, and there was no need to listen.
Chu Qiaoyu was a truly intelligent person.
And the more intelligent people were, the more arrogant they became.
He needed to consider his next plan, and some things couldn't be done by him alone.
He took out his phone and called Old Li.
Meanwhile, in the office, Chu Qiaoyu saw Chu Nianxue busy at her desk.
"Xiaoxue!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Nianxue suddenly looked up and saw her aunt. A look of surprise immediately appeared on her extremely beautiful and perfect face.
"Aunt, why are you here? Weren't you very busy recently?"
Chu Qiaoyu acted as if she had suffered a great injustice, her eyes reddened, and tears couldn't stop falling.
Chu Nianxue quickly walked over, worried. "Aunt, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
"Xiaoxue, I just feel upset and want to talk to you for a while."
"Can I live in the same villa as you from now on? Someone is always bothering me where I live. You know I don't want to go back to the Chu family, and I especially don't want to face your grandmother."
"I can't adapt to the situation at home, but I like being with you."
Hearing this, Chu Qiaoyu readily agreed. "Aunt, you can stay as long as you want. Anyway, it's just me and Tongtong at home."
"Xiaoxue, thank you!"
"Aunt, you still haven't told me what happened. If someone bullied you, tell me. Although I can't do anything to him, I can ask Lin Xiaotian for help. He's very capable!"
A faint curve appeared on Chu Qiaoyu's lips, but her face looked even more pitiful. "I won't say."
"I can handle my own affairs. I just need to hide at your place for a while. Don't worry about me. You go ahead with your work. Let me know if you need any help."
The conversation in the office shifted to other topics, especially the company's development.
While Lin Xiaotian was sitting in the lobby, carefully contemplating matters, a嚣张 (xiāozhāng - arrogant) voice suddenly rang out from the entrance.
"Tell Chu Nianxue to come out and see me!"
Hearing this voice, all eyes turned. Upon seeing the person who had entered, many revealed looks of surprise.
A young man, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, walked in.
He was followed by four or five bodyguards.
Those people's gazes were like sharp blades, emanating spiritual energy.
The young man, however, was extremely arrogant, as if he were looking at the sky, with a haughty demeanor.
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me? Call Chu Nianxue immediately and tell her to get down here and see me."
The employees exchanged glances, as they didn't recognize the person in front of them.
"May I ask who you are?"
The receptionist asked cautiously.
"Tell Chu Nianxue, I am Tang Mingxuan."
"I'm here today to demand an explanation from her, and also call out that bastard Lin Xiaotian."
As his voice fell, Lin Xiaotian walked over from a corner of the lobby, smiling. "Who are you calling a bastard?"
"Of course, I'm calling..."
Before he could finish speaking, he realized and his face turned extremely angry. He abruptly turned his head to look at Lin Xiaotian. "Who the hell are you? Are you looking for death?"
