Gold Medal Sweetheart

Shao Chengxue laughed dryly and tried to act calm. "Brother Tai Ze, what do you mean? I don't quite understand. Is there something that made you misunderstand me?"

As long as he didn't expose her directly, she wouldn't admit it. Her fingers dug hard into the wall behind her, as if she could draw some strength from something solid to support her.

Jin Taize snorted coldly, "You know exactly what I'm saying." He suddenly turned his head and stared at her, and Shao Chengxue swallowed nervously.

"I remind you, know when to stop. I haven't taken any action yet, just because you're a woman." He approached Shao Chengxue step by step. The woman's fingers gripping the wall used a little more strength, her whole body stiffened as if it wasn't her own. "But if this makes you think I'm a good man, then you're wrong. If you touch my bottom line, don't blame me for adding insult to injury to the Shao family."

The man stared at Shao Chengxue sharply and said this, then turned and left coldly. Shao Chengxue was the only one left on the railing, as if nothing had happened.

But the woman's body instantly deflated like a broken string. After the immense pressure and tension, her body slumped down the wall, crouching powerlessly in the same spot.

She looked in the direction where the man left with frustration and resentment, silently repeating what he said in her heart: his bottom line?

Could it be that using Shitian’s name to discuss cooperation was not the bottom line that made him angry, and his real forbidden area was... She didn’t dare to believe it, nor did she want to believe it.

Hu Yang, who was waiting outside, saw Shao Chengxue coming out alone listlessly early, and curled the corners of his lips slightly.

Shao Chengxue felt angry when she saw his half-smile, but considering that he was her personal assistant, she didn't dare to reveal too much.

"Brother Tai Ze will be out soon." She walked over and said to Hu Yang with a smile, as if what happened inside had nothing to do with her.

"Well, thank you, Miss Shao." Hu Yang nodded, politely but with a sense of distance.

"Why didn't the young lady I met at the last dinner come with you?" Shao Chengxue asked casually, pretending to be unintentional.

Although the terrifying conjecture had shocked her, she calmed down and thought, "Brother Tai Ze, when you one day discover that the person you value the most has deceived you the most, what a thrill that will be!" How could a man who has always been so high and mighty allow himself to be toyed with like this? When that happens, he'll remember her kind reminder today and realize who truly cares about him.

Thinking of this, she, who had been feeling extremely uncomfortable, now felt relieved.

Hu Yang smiled and said, "I'm just following Mr. Jin's instructions. As for the rest, I'm not very clear."

The answer was very official.

But at the end, he added casually, "Why didn't Ms. Shao come out with Mr. Jin?"

This is deliberately rubbing salt into her wounds. It's like a toad sitting on your feet, biting you but causing you discomfort.

Shao Chengxue hadn't expected him to ask that question. His face almost turned green with anger. They say, "A red flower becomes redder when it's near a red flower, and a black flower becomes blacker when it's near a black flower." This old saying is indeed true. Dealing with such a cunning boss every day, his words and actions naturally became much more sinister.

"I have something to do, so I left early." She tossed her hair and replied unhappily without even looking at Hu Yang, "I'm leaving first. You wait."

Hu Yang smiled slightly and made a gesture of invitation.

Shao Chengxue glanced at him with a gloomy face and walked out of the lobby in high heels.

Later, more guests came out. Jin Taize left relatively late because he was stopped by many CEOs to greet and reminisce about the past. Hu Yang was used to such waiting as he often accompanied him to events.

Seeing a tall figure being surrounded by people from afar, Hu Yang immediately understood and opened the door of the back seat of the car in advance.

After the man got in the car, Hu Yang told the driver to drive away.

The car was driving in the river of lights, and the neon lights of various stores were reflected on the windows like a kaleidoscope, casting mottled light and shadows on the man's face.
