Section 252

Li Xiao was driven crazy with envy.

But when he thought about how the other party was eyeing his own sister…

his heart turned completely cold…

Was his sister, Li Yunshu, pretty?

Of course she was pretty; she was barely any different from Su Wanqiu.

Li Xiao didn't dare answer Su Wanqiu's question anymore.

If she really went to persuade his sister to become Xu Hao's woman, it would be a total tragedy.

"Su Boss, are you being threatened? Does Xu Hao have something on you? Otherwise, what kind of wife supports her husband messing around outside?"

Li Xiao wracked his brain but still couldn't understand it.

How could this stunning mature beauty go to such lengths for Xu Hao?

So tolerant—damn it, she wasn't a wife; calling her a slave would be more like it.

"You don't need to be afraid. I'm preparing to deal with Xu Hao right now. If we work together from the inside and outside, we can definitely bring him down."

"Can you talk properly? You're the one being threatened! Your whole family is being threatened! Brother Hao is very good to me…"

Su Wanqiu looked displeased.

Actually, he hit the nail on the head; she really had been threatened by Xu Hao.

Li Xiao stared straight at Su Wanqiu's face, attempting to catch a trace of unnaturalness or resentment.

There was none.

None at all.

This meant Su Wanqiu wasn't forced by Xu Hao.

The things she said just now were all from her heart.

Getting such an answer, Li Xiao's mindset collapsed.

He had come to Su Wanqiu full of confidence, telling her about Xu Hao's terrible deeds.

He wanted to laugh at Xu Hao.

Instead, he was the one who got hit hard.

Not only did Su Wanqiu, this god-like wife, not blame Xu Hao for messing around outside, she even helped him find women.

How could such a good woman follow a bastard like Xu Hao?

[Ding… Li Xiao's mindset has collapsed, Emotion Points +999…]

"Stop wasting my time. Get as far away from me as you can. As if someone like you could deal with Brother Hao?"

Disdain leaked from Su Wanqiu's eyes.

Xu Hao played everyone in the palm of his hand.

A minor character like Li Xiao couldn't even stir up a ripple.

She could already imagine that this guy wouldn't end up well.

Li Xiao clenched his fists, Killing Intent flaring in his eyes.

Su Wanqiu's sentence struck right at his sore spot.

With his current strength, wanting to deal with Xu Hao was indeed a pipe dream.

His Killing Intent gradually faded away.

In suspicion and uncertainty, he looked at the cold-looking woman beside Su Wanqiu.

That was Su Wanqiu's driver.

When the two were talking earlier, she had remained in the car without stepping down to disturb them.

Detecting the Killing Intent he leaked, she instantly appeared by Su Wanqiu's side to protect her.

"Ming Jin Late Stage…"

Li Xiao was shocked in his heart.

Even the bodyguard arranged by Su Wanqiu's side was at the Ming Jin Late Stage.

How much power was still hidden behind Xu Hao?

Was there really any hope if he wanted to deal with Xu Hao?

The bodyguard's appearance poured another bucket of cold water over him, chilling him from head to toe.

Su Wanqiu got into the car and headed to the Hospital.

Li Xiao stood dazed in place, unable to recover for a long time.

Xu Group—

President's Office.

Dressed in a work uniform, Li Yunshu obediently came to the doorway.

She raised her hand and knocked twice, "Bang, bang."

"Come in."

A response came from inside the office.

Li Yunshu went inside and casually closed the door behind her.

She walked up to the executive desk and stood still.

She looked curiously at Xu Hao, who was sitting in the office chair.

"Uncle Xu, you were looking for me?"

Xu Hao stopped flipping through documents, his gaze landing on Li Yunshu's slender figure.

She graduated this year and had only joined the company a few days ago, but she had already developed the air of an urban white-collar professional.

He could feel that since entering the company, this little female lead had maintained a positive and upbeat mindset.

Full of hope for the future.

If things developed according to this trend—

She would remain in a happy state until she became a capable right-hand officer under him.

Unfortunately, today Xu Hao was going to scatter a bit of mist over her hopeful future path.

Li Yunshu's favorability had already reached the threshold.

All that was missing for complete subjugation was an opportunity.

The plan to subdue her was already prepared, but it needed a little pre-heating.

She needed a blow.

Restraining his thoughts, Xu Hao said with a smile,

"Yunshu, are you getting used to things at the company?"

Li Yunshu couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Hadn't Uncle Xu asked her this before?

She liked the company's atmosphere very much; everyone inside was talented, and she had even made a good best friend.

Still, she said,

"The company atmosphere is great, I like it very much, and I'm already familiar with the work…"

Xu Hao nodded.

His fingers tapped gently on the desktop.

A rhythmic sound echoed in the quiet office.

Xu Hao looked at her, putting on a conflicted expression, stopping himself as if hesitating to speak.

Li Yunshu was initially very happy.

Xu Hao didn't come to the company often, and she was busy with work, so meeting him wasn't easy.

Today Xu Hao called her over, making her secretly delighted.

Being around Xu Hao always gave her a strange sense of security.

She didn't know if it was because her best friend Xia Qingge nagged in her ear all the time.

She had gradually developed a strange feeling toward Xu Hao.

Noticing Xu Hao's conflicted expression, Li Yunshu grew increasingly confused, which then turned into uneasiness.

"U-Uncle Xu, is something wrong?"

Li Yunshu asked weakly.

"Yunshu, I called you here because I wanted to ask… have you ever considered changing companies?"
