It seems this beauty thought I deliberately came to work at the Ling Corporation because of her.

"Do you think I came to work at the Ling Corporation because of you?"

Ye Luo curled his lips, hands in his pockets, and walked up to Li Wanqin, stopping less than a meter away from her.

Seeing Ye Luo standing in front of her, Li Wanqin appeared a bit nervous, a fleeting shade of panic passing through her beautiful eyes.

"What do you mean?"

"Beauty, didn’t you hear what the security guard just said? The president personally picked me for the job. Do you really think if I joined this company because of you, I’d let the president personally choose me to be the deputy head of security?"

As he spoke, Ye Luo took another step forward, and suddenly, their bodies were just a fist’s width apart, each could feel the other’s breath.

Ye Luo’s eyes, warm with intensity, watched Li Wanqin, whose cheeks began to redden uncontrollably, and her expression became somewhat frantic as she tried to stand up and leave.

But Ye Luo leaned forward with both hands, grasping the edge of the desk behind Li Wanqin, effectively blocking her way.

"Actually, I never expected we would meet here either. It appears that this is an opportunity given to us by fate, an opportunity for me not to miss you again."

Ye Luo’s voice was filled with emotion, his eyes, brimming with tenderness, looked at the mature beauty in front of him.

To Ye Luo, although he knew nothing about Li Wanqin and had only met her once, the fact that she was the first woman he possessed, gave him a different sentiment, so he still wanted to keep her firmly by his side.

Perhaps everyone has the thought of not wanting their woman to end up in the arms of another. Naturally, Ye Luo shared this sentiment too.

After spending over a decade in deep mountains "Cultivating", under the tutelage of that old man, Ye Luo’s worldview was different from some of the city folks’. In his eyes, any woman that he had formed a relationship with, if she ended up with someone else, it would be unbearable, and he did not want to be an irresponsible man. He knew she was also experiencing a first time.

So, having encountered her again, Ye Luo wanted to take responsibility. Perhaps, this was the opportunity given by fate.

However, upon hearing Ye Luo’s words, Li Wanqin’s expression flickered with complexity, her heart in turmoil.

Regarding the man before her, there were no feelings, but these past nights, the image of Ye Luo had involuntarily appeared in her mind, leaving her unsure of what to do. She had thought that with time, she could forget, but fate had played a joke on her, bringing them back together.

But...

"No, don’t overthink it. This is just a coincidence. Since you didn’t come to this company because of me, let’s pretend none of this ever happened and behave like strangers to each other."

Li Wanqin’s expression changed abruptly, and she hurriedly spoke, attempting to break free from Ye Luo’s grasp and leave.

In the next second, Ye Luo embraced her tightly and kissed her, with a tinge of domination.

"Mmm..."

Clearly taken aback by Ye Luo’s actions, Li Wanqin’s eyes widened in shock. She tried to say something but couldn’t. Her body was firmly controlled by Ye Luo’s hands, making it hard to break free.

The kiss lasted a full minute until Li Wanqin’s face flushed with the strain of breathing, and then Ye Luo finally released her.

"You..."

Once freed by Ye Luo, Li Wanqin’s face was a picture of rosy allure, her eyes glazed, but as she regained her composure, her expression changed, and a slap seemed imminent, only to stop midway.

"Beauty, though we’ve only met twice, I firmly believe that we are destined for each other. The saying goes that a single glance in a previous life translates into a casual encounter in this one. I must have craned my neck for you so many times in my past life that I nearly broke it, so now you have to take responsibility for me!"

Ye Luo looked at Li Wanqin with all seriousness as he spoke.

However, listening to this guy, Li Wanqin felt the urge to curse.

Damn it, this guy, actually had the audacity to be so shameless.

"You... why don’t you say that in my last life, I turned back so often my neck was about to break? Why should I be responsible for you? Why can’t it be you who should be responsible for me?"

Li Wanqin was so angry that she became somewhat irrational. She wanted to retort at Ye Luo but ended up being too embarrassed to finish her sentence. After she said it, she wondered if she had gone too far. What was she even talking about? Why did she want him to be responsible for her?

"I can be responsible for you, but from now on, you are my woman. You must cooperate with me in whatever I ask, without any objection,"

Ye Luo declared confidently, "Also, only I can bully you, you can’t bully me. If you think about bullying me, that’s not impossible either, I will..."

Li Wanqin was so thrown off by Ye Luo’s actions that she didn’t know how to respond but still curiously asked, "What will you do?"

"Heh, I will return the favor double!" Ye Luo replied directly, "You know what I mean by bullying. I have N number of positions to play with you, don’t doubt it." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Her words instantly made Li Wanqin feel like she had been struck by lightning, suddenly realizing that Ye Luo’s brain might not be quite normal.

How could anyone say such things so brazenly? Is there such a shameless person?

For a moment, Li Wanqin was so agitated by Ye Luo’s words that she was almost unable to cope and then coldly commanded, "Get out, I don’t want to see you."

"How can that be? You haven’t agreed to be responsible for me yet," Ye Luo quipped, with a slight shrug.

"Responsible, my ass!"

Li Wanqin, furious, grabbed a document from the office desk and was about to throw it at Ye Luo.

"Wan Qin, today’s plan..."

Just then, the door to Li Wanqin’s office was suddenly opened, and Ling Qingya walked in, pausing in surprise at the scene before her.

Both Ye Luo and Li Wanqin were taken aback.

Li Wanqin’s expression changed at once, and she quickly retracted the document she was about to throw, steadied herself, and said to Ling Qingya, "President, do you need something?"

"Why are you here?"

But Ling Qingya’s gaze turned toward Ye Luo and then glanced at Li Wanqin, her eyes flickering with an unusual light.

Fuck, this feels like being caught red-handed.

Ye Luo cursed inwardly, but kept a smile on his face as he said, "I’ve just taken up my new position, and Director Li is still not quite familiar with me, so she wanted me to come and get to know each other a little. Right, Director Li?"

Ye Luo said, glancing at Li Wanqin.

"Uh, yes, President,"

Li Wanqin quickly nodded in response.
