Wei Sihai’s expression completely turned gloomy, and there was even anger burning and flashing in his eyes. However, he suppressed himself and, in a solemn voice, said, “I have no idea what you are talking about. I want the best for you and I hope you will listen to my advice.”
Lin Huai smiled and said, “Do you actually not know what’s going on or are you pretending? The reason why Yulan College turned out this way is because it has flaws in its ridiculous business model. However, isn’t it also because of your connivance?”
Wei Sihai remained silent and stopped talking. The look on his face turned even gloomier.
Lin Huai’s smile faded away, his voice turning serious and solemn. “You are constantly hanging out in expensive and fancy places on a daily basis, but do you have any idea what kind of family backgrounds these college students have? Do you know what this means to their parents? Do you know that everything they do at the college brings immense disappointment to their parents? In fact, Yulan College is no longer a breeding ground for students to learn and grow but rather a breeding ground for thugs that would end up fighting and killing people once they graduate. So many families have been destroyed by Yulan College. I believe if your deceased wife could see this from heaven, she would glare and curse at you. Do you have any idea how much she would hate you for this?”
“That’s impossible! Everything I did was for her!” Wei Sihai suddenly lost his cool. He roared and suddenly jerked up; he was no longer his usual calm self.
Lin Huai was bewildered. He did not understand what Wei Sihai meant. Wei Sihai was panting and breathing heavily. He suddenly clutched onto his chest and sat back down on his chair. Then he took out a bottle of quick acting heart reliever pills and swallowed it. After some time, he felt better and regained his calm self.
Lin Huai frowned and asked, “What did you just say?”
“Nothing.” Wei Sihai’s face was still gloomy, but he regained his composure. “Like I said, I think you should take some time to really consider about it. If the three big powerful groups decide to lay their hands on you, not even God could save you.”
Wei Sihai stood up and strode toward the study room. His steps suddenly stopped. He said with a dim voice, “By the way, you asked if you were affecting my share of the pie. My answer to that is yes! If you still choose to be ignorant and interfere, not only will the three big groups go after you, I will too. It doesn’t matter if you’re from Dragon Shield, nobody there will be able to save you then. You don’t understand how serious the circumstances are. I will take my leave first… I expect to hear that you have already left within a week.”
Wei Sihai pushed the door open and left. Very soon, Li Qianqian came in and stared at Lin Huai full of concern. She asked, “How did it go?”
“Not exactly pleasant.” Lin Huai shrugged, and said with a smile, “You must have already guessed. Also, now that he knows to wait for me here, I am guessing he clearly knows the relationship between us. Oh right… he had sent people over to spy on you before.”
Li Qianqian said, “Yeah, but knowing the relationship between us might affect your future relationships with Miss Wei.”
With a serious tone, Lin Huai replied, “Not exactly. I love you but that doesn’t stop me from loving Wei Qimian as well.”
“Gosh, guys are really such unfaithful and fickle-minded creatures.”
Lin Huai smiled and hugged Li Qianqian. He said, “Why don’t we get to bed and you can investigate yourself to see if I am fickle-minded?”
Li Qianqian rolled her eyes at Lin Huai and coyly said, “No way… I…”
Before she could complete her sentence, her mouth was blocked off by Lin Huai’s lips. She could not help but kiss him back. Lin Huai suddenly thought to himself, this woman excels in work, and is also amazing in bed.
Both of them chose to not head over to a bedroom but instead continued making out and having sex right in the study room. When they were done, Lin Huai carried her to the bathroom, and they continued having sex there again. They then took a shower and lay back on bed.
Li Qianqian softly panted and moaned. “You are always bullying me.”
Lin Huai smiled and said, “I am working hard to plow the field so that your soil can be even more fertile. You don’t understand my good intentions.”
“You sure have good intentions!” She pouted her lips and replied, “Do you understand now, how hard it is to be in my position? I am stuck between you and the chairman.”
Lin Huai smiled and said, “Why don’t you just quit your job then? I can take care of you.”
“I don’t need you to take care of me. How do I look?”
“Huh?” Lin Huai was shocked by the question but answered seriously. “You look really beautiful.”
Lin Huai’s gaze caressed her body. She had very seductive eyes, a beautiful nose, and sexy lips. Not only that, she also had smooth and luscious skin. Such a beautiful gal, why would anyone in this world not like her?
Li Qianqian sighed, sounding rather tired. Lin Huai stared into Li Qianqian’s eyes and could tell that she was exhausted.
The urge to protect her grew stronger within Lin Huai. He gently embraced Li Qianqian in his arms and asked with a gentle voice, “Tired?”
“Yeah.”
“Then let’s stop messing around and rest.”
Li Qianqian replied, “It’s not that, I was just thinking about my career over the years. I know you said that you were willing to take care of me but do you have any idea how much effort I put in, to get to where I am today? When I first entered the company, I learned and did everything the company wanted me. In my first year of work, I only slept four hours a day and spent the rest of my time learning. Only after some time, the chairman finally noticed my skills before hiring me to be his secretary. However…”
Li Qianqian continued telling her story. “Just now when I asked you if I’m beautiful, you must have thought that I am a proud person but I’m not. I’m just exhausted… Being a secretary is to induce one’s fantasy. I knew that people were saying I climbed up the corporate ladder based on my looks behind my back. But the thought of me staying up all night learning everything never even went through their minds.”
Lin Huai felt heart-wrenched. He hugged Li Qianqian even tighter. A woman like Li Qianqian could not escape from such rumours no matter how upright she was. Lin Huai could also imagine how people would gossip behind her back even without seeing it with his own eyes; he could imagine what kind of rumours they would spread. It would definitely revolve around things like how she relied on guys to get to where she was today.
Isn’t the world just like that? As long as there is a large group of people, rumours and gossip would be rich and in abundance. In today’s day and age, all that is being produced in abundance is the ugly side of humans that arises due to jealousy.
Lin Huai hugged Li Qianqian tightly. She was trembling in his arms, so Lin Huai hugged her even tighter and his heart ached even more. Word by word, he announced, “Starting from now, I will protect you!”
