The little rose is so sweet and alluring, even the aloof CEO can't resist!

Xu Chaofeng gave a signal, and the security guards stepped forward and forcefully pushed Lisa out of the company gate.

Standing behind the security guard, Xu Chaofeng said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Ms. Lisa, your car company also needs to take it back. Please return the car keys, otherwise the full price of the car will be added to your salary and bonus at the company headquarters."

Lisa screamed, "Why? Just because I'm leaving? I don't believe it! Where's Vito? Tell him to come down, I want to ask him face to face!"

Xu Chaofeng: "President Yan is very busy and doesn't have time to deal with such trivial matters. Please cooperate, President Zhou."

He held out his hand to her: "Please return the key."

Lisa was so angry her hands were trembling, her face contorted with rage: "Is it because I sent him that video last night that he couldn't bear to blame his girlfriend, so he took it out on me? Vito, are you crazy? Your girlfriend is having an affair with your nephew, and you don't dare touch her but you go after me?"

Xu Chaofeng's expression changed, and she shouted sharply, "Grab her!"

The security guards immediately restrained Lisa, who was unable to move her hands and feet and had her mouth covered, leaving her in a very sorry state.

Xu Chaofeng stepped forward, pulled her bag over, rummaged through it to find the car keys, and then put the bag back on her.

He looked at her with sharp eyes and switched to English, saying, "Ms. Lisa, if you had used your abilities at work, the Zhou family would have valued you highly. After all, the position of president of the North American region has already been offered to you, hasn't it? It's a pity that you had wicked thoughts and set your sights on people you shouldn't have... You know President Yan's temper. Allowing you to leave the country safely is already a sign of leniency."

Lisa's mouth was covered, and she could only make muffled sounds, her big eyes glaring at him with resentment.

Xu Chaofeng looked directly into her eyes and said, "President Yan needs to receive news of your departure within three hours. If he doesn't, then you really don't need to go back. President Yan keeps his word."

With his last words, he raised his hand, and the security guard released his grip on Lisa.

Lisa fell to the ground like a kite that had lost its leash, her face pale.

"He...wanted to kill me?"

“In a society governed by the rule of law, how could Miss Lisa think that way?” Xu Chaofeng chuckled, but the smile did not reach her eyes, which were full of meaning. “However, you can test her with your own body.”

He glanced at his watch: "It's 9:10 now. Your flight is scheduled for 12:00, Ms. Lisa. You have 2 hours and 50 minutes left. Would you like me to call a car for you?"

Lisa looked ashen-faced and struggled to her feet.

"want……"

Xu Chaofeng immediately called a car for her and told her to wait there for 5 minutes, and the car would arrive soon.

While waiting, a female employee walked out of the company carrying a cardboard box, her head hanging low.

Outside the gate, the two women exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and unease on each other's faces.

“It’s you.” Lisa blurted out, then looked at the cardboard box in her hand, her expression suddenly changing.

The female employee glared at her resentfully, tears streaming down her face: "It's all your fault! You dragged me down with you, making me lose such a good job!"

Lisa glanced at Xu Chaofeng subconsciously and retorted, "What nonsense are you spouting—"

The female employee said, "President Yan knows everything. You used me to track his whereabouts, and he found out. Not only did he fire me, but he also confiscated all the money you gave me!"

Lisa stared in disbelief at the female employee's retreating figure for a long while before turning to Xu Chaofeng abruptly: "When did he start to suspect me?"

Xu Chaofeng said calmly, "I noticed it from the first time you made a deal with her. She's not from the 28th floor, but she's been going to the 28th floor several times more often than usual. Do you think that won't attract attention?"

Lisa suddenly felt a pang of panic.

Did they know about her interactions with those people?

She comforted herself, thinking that probably wasn't the case, since he had never mentioned those things. He only asked her to go back to America because her work project there had been delayed.

Soon, the car she had called arrived, and she got in, feeling dejected.

Xu Chaofeng reminded her again through the car door: "Ms. Lisa, you only have 2 hours and 40 minutes left, please hurry."

At 12:05, Yan Zhixu took her medicine with warm water in her office, pinched her brow, and got up to go to the break room to lie down for a while.

The internal phone rang, and he pressed the button.

"what's up?"

Xu Chaofeng: "President Yan, Miss Lisa has already left the country."

Yan Zhixu: "Understood."

After hanging up the intercom, his expression remained unchanged. He picked up his phone, turned around, and went into the lounge.

After lying down in bed, I took a picture of myself and sent it to Liang Liangwei.

I'm going to take a nap.

On the other end, Liang Liangwei smiled slightly upon receiving his message and replied with a "pat on the head" emoji.

Xiao Ling was sitting opposite her, watching her smile sweetly at her phone, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Do you text your boyfriend?

Liang Liangwei put her phone down with the screen facing down and smiled, saying, "Yes."

Xiao Ling: "If you have the chance, I'll introduce your boyfriend to your aunt."

A mischievous glint flashed in Liang Liangwei's eyes, and she smiled, "Okay."

In the morning, Xiao Ling called her to invite her to lunch, and she agreed because she didn't want to refuse. Right now, the two of them are sitting in a Western restaurant not far from her company.

"Does Auntie have something to tell me today?"

Xiao Ling sighed and said, "Originally, we had the opportunity to become a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who could go shopping and have meals together without any special reason. But now, look at me, I have to have a reason to ask you out."

Liang Liangwei chuckled twice, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and said, "I'm sorry, Auntie, it's just a professional habit of mine. After all, it's a weekday, so I habitually ask people what brings them here."

Xiao Ling: "I know, I was just expressing my feelings. But I really do have something to ask you today."

Liang Liangwei: "Ask for advice? Auntie, you're being too kind. Please speak frankly."

Xiao Ling took out a branded bag from beside her and said, "It's like this, a few days ago, a female guest came to our house. She came from the United States and gave me a set of skincare products from there. She said they are very easy for the skin to absorb and can reduce wrinkles and fine lines. I've never used this brand before, and since you're a professional, I wanted to ask you if this one is suitable for me?"

Liang Liangwei immediately understood who the guest she was referring to was.

She calmly took the bag and carefully examined the boxes inside.

After a moment, she said, "There's nothing wrong with this skincare product, and it was indeed brought from the United States. However, the lotion and toner can't pass through security, so I guess she shipped it by air. That's quite thoughtful of her."

"But if I may be frank, products that work well for Europeans and Americans may not be suitable for Asian skin. This product was recommended by someone who had studied abroad before, but several of my clients said it was too oily and that long-term use could cause spots and small bumps. So people in our circle don't really like using it."

Xiao Ling gasped, cupping her face in her hands, and said, "I don't want it! If I put this on my face, I'd rather die!"
