Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful-Chapter 326 - Private Conversation (1)

Chapter 326: Private Conversation (1)

Zhao Youlin and Han Yichen walked into the lounge on the side one after the other. Those young men who stayed behind to watch the store looked at each other. A short while later, they could be heard whispering and talking to each other.

“I say, what do you think Brother Han wants to talk to our boss about? They are acting so secretively that they actually needed to move to another room to talk in private.”

“I say, why are you so nosy? Are you still a man or not?”

“What does this have to do with whether I’m a man or not? Don’t tell me you’re not curious at all?”

The young man who retorted just now did not say another word. It must be said that the friendship of boys was much simpler and cruder than that of girls. They naturally liked to follow the strong and outstanding.

Although Han Yichen was a man of few words, there was no denying that he was a few years older than the other young men. He had more social experience, and he sometimes subconsciously exuded a superior presence. It took him only a few months of time to get these naughty and rebellious young men to be obedient to him.

This was especially after spending more time together, they found that Han Yichen was actually a kind man with a stoic face. He was particularly righteous. Such a man had all the characteristics of a leader and it made it particularly easy for him to make people want to get closer to him.

Hence, when those young men, who had seen Han Yichen as their brother long ago, saw their coolest “Big Bro” enter the dark room with their beautiful and elegant boss to have a private conversation. The curious souls inside them could not help but start burning.

“I say, Brother Han probably has taken a fancy to our boss. He wants to take this opportunity to confess his love to our boss.”

“Confess to the boss?”

“Yeah. You see, Brother Han and the boss are almost the same age. And Brother Han is such a handsome man, he might not be as good looking as I am, but he is so much more handsome than many men. Our boss is a gorgeous woman as well. When they stand together, they look like a perfect couple, don’t they?”

“More handsome, my foot! Look at your ugly face! And you’ve got the audacity to say you’re more handsome than Brother Han? But you are right about that. When I think about it, Brother Han and the boss do make a perfect couple.”

“But doesn’t the boss already have a child? She should be married already, right? How could she still be with Brother Han…”

“Mr. Xiao Wei, exactly how ill-informed are you? You don’t know that our boss is actually divorced? That little kid from just now belongs to her and her ex-husband. The boss is now single! Single!”

Xiao Wei was speechless. He thought. ‘I’m not as nosey as you guys. How would I know about this stuff?’

After falling speechless for a moment, Xiao Wei continued and asked, “But I thought Brother Han and Xiao Yue are pretty close with each other? He always looks after her, I thought they…”

“You don’t know about this, do you? Brother Han is good to Xiao Yue, probably because he’s feeling grateful to Xiao Yue for taking him back at that time. But no one says that getting married to your benefactor is the only way to repay kindness, right? If I were him, I’d prefer a hot woman like the boss than a young girl like Xiao Yue!”

“You masochistic pervert. Don’t go thinking that Brother Han is a pervert like you, okay?”

“Was I wrong? I’m just being honest…”

“Ahem.”

Seeing that the conversation topic among those boys was moving toward a direction that was inappropriate for kids, a light cough successfully brought back their attention, and it also collectively silenced them.

“Sister Qi, Xiao Yue, how long have you been here?”

“We’ve been here since you guys were talking about which type of girl Brother Han and Xing like better.”

Xing, the young man who was the more passionate one in the conversation, smiled awkwardly and decisively chose to bolt. “Sister Qi, I remembered that there are still some things I need to move at the back. I’d better go to work now.”

Several other people who saw him running away chose to bolt with him as well. “We’ll give him a hand.”

Staring at those few boys who went out of sight in the blink of an eye, An Qi did not know whether she should laugh or cry. When she remembered what they were talking about before, she could not help but glance at An Yue, who had not said a word beside her with some concern. “Yue Yue, are you okay?”

An Yue’s face was pale. She was stunned a little when she heard An Qi ask her that question. She forced a smile and said, “I… I’m fine. Don’t worry about me, Sister. I’m really fine.”

Looking at An Yue’s forced smile, the concerned look on An Qi’s eyes intensified.

An Yue met An Qi’s worried eyes. She tried to smile, but the corners of her mouth somehow felt really heavy. She simply could not turn them up.

Her crystal-clear eyes swept across the closed door of the lounge. Then, she closed her eyes slowly, hiding the feeling of inferiority and sadness in them.

They were right. He deserved better. She was not good enough for him.

On the other side, Han Yichen and Zhao Youlin, who were unaware that they were now believed to be a couple, were having a conversation that was totally different from what the others had guessed.

“Mr. Han, you’ve been here for almost three months, right? How are you settling in? Did they bully you?”

Han Yichen’s eyes flickered slightly before he answered in a deep voice, “They are all very nice.”

“In that case, looks like things are working well for you in experiencing the life of the working people at the foot of the ladder in my place, President Han.” Zhao Youlin’s words were full of mockery.

Han Yichen’s face darkened a little. His gaze was as sharp as a sharpened knife, and those eyes that were incredibly similar to Zhao Shunrong’s were staring straight at Zhao Youlin. “You investigated me?”

Zhao Youlin smiled a little, not taking Han Yichen’s sudden burst of defensiveness and hostility into account. She walked to the only table in the lounge, and she sat straight on it with a gentle hop, meeting Han Yichen’s gaze.

“President Han, you were once a celebrity of Shalnork, after all. Your photos were all over the newspapers, magazines, and even TV. It’d be hard to forget you.”

Han Yichen’s eyes were slightly austere as he coldly said, “In that case, since you’ve found out that I was the president of the Sheng Shi Group, who bankrupted his own company only a few months ago, do you have anything you want to say to me, General Manager Zhao?”

Zhao Youlin’s eyes flashed slightly. As she expected, this man had already known her identity.

She crossed her slender and long legs. Then, Zhao Youlin cupped her cheek with one hand as she studied the man in front of her, who was exuding a cold aura. She smiled faintly and said, “What should I say? Should I mock you, be sarcastic, or delight in your misfortune and be mean to you?”

Han Yichen fell speechless because of Zhao Youlin’s words. Zhou Youlin chuckled a little and said, “President Han, you’ve become unnecessarily suspicious of people just because you’ve been betrayed once. You think everyone will step on you? In that case, I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you, President Han. I have no enmity with you. And I don’t have the energy to add insult to another’s misfortune. But…”

“But?”

“But even if you had not come to me today, I will take the initiative to come to you, because I need to talk to you, President Han.”

Han Yichen subconsciously raised his eyebrows, obviously a little surprised by what Zhao Youlin told him. “You need to talk to me?”
