"Stop!!!! Spare the person under the knife!!!"
As this voice echoed through the air.
An Youyi and Li Jiaxin froze.
The other girls in the office also turned their gazes toward the door in unison.
In no time at all.
Xu Mo appeared before their eyes.
:"Wow! Is that CEO Xu?"
:"Oh my gosh (ლ(ٱ٥ٱლ) CEO Xu is actually here! It's been so long since we last saw him, and he's gotten even more handsome."
:"Hmph, you're blind!!! My man has always been dazzling, okay?"
:"Pfft, your man? How shameless! He's clearly my husband. I know exactly how many abs he has."
The girls chattered away, creating a lively atmosphere.
Compared to Li Jiaxin.
Xu Mo was practically harmless in their eyes.
And he didn’t carry the aura of a boss at all.
Li Jiaxin's beautiful eyes locked onto Xu Mo's strikingly handsome face.
That face had been layered with multiple charm buffs by the system.
It had undergone a qualitative transformation.
Even Li Jiaxin, the tofu queen who had seen it all, felt her heart skip a beat.
A faint blush appeared on her exquisite face.
Her heart raced uncontrollably.
Thump... thump... thump...
This feeling startled Li Jiaxin.
It was something she had never experienced before, indescribable and inexplicable.
For the first time in her life, she felt this way----------
An Youyi tilted her head expressionlessly, puzzled.
"Spare the person under the knife?"
At this moment, the girls shifted their attention from Xu Mo's handsome face.
Feeling the weight of more than a dozen pairs of eyes on him.
Xu Mo exchanged glances with the group of lively and beautiful female employees for a moment.
Keeping his expression neutral, he chuckled awkwardly.
"I was talking about a really fun mobile game. You start with a Dragon Slaying Sword, and all your equipment comes from drops. I wasn’t shouting at you guys."
As long as I don’t feel awkward.
Then the awkwardness must belong to someone else.
As the boss of the company.
Xu Mo didn’t owe anyone an explanation.
After all, at Xu Corporation, he called the shots.
He could fire anyone he wanted.
Without even needing a reason.
Xu Mo had expected his explanation to plunge the room into an awkward silence.
But what happened next completely defied his expectations.
:"Boss, are you going to play games with us? I love gaming!"
:"What game is it? What game is it? Can you take me along?"
:"CEO Xu, if you’re playing, I’ll join you~ I’m pretty good at it."
:"Count me in too!"
Their reactions were the complete opposite of what Xu Mo had anticipated.
The office quickly became lively again.
Li Jiaxin’s face darkened, and she snapped sharply.
"It’s working hours! Working hours, got it?"
The cheerful atmosphere instantly died down.
She was a little happy that Xu Mo had come.
And she didn’t mind it much.
After all, Xu Mo wasn’t here to catch her.
Or to do anything against her.
But with An Youyi also present.
The situation felt different.
Li Jiaxin’s mind was now filled with the thought of getting An Youyi out of there as soon as possible.
After scolding the girls.
Li Jiaxin’s lips curled into a charming smile, and she said sincerely.
"CEO Xu, come in and have some tea."
Xu Mo had no reason to refuse.
He followed An Youyi into the executive office.
Li Jiaxin glanced at the girls, her smile vanishing instantly, and her tone turned icy.
"Behave yourselves! Get back to work. If I catch anyone eavesdropping, you’re dead tonight. You’ve seen my methods before. If you want to experience that agony again, I’m more than happy to oblige!"
First a carrot, then a stick.
After intimidating the girls.
Li Jiaxin finally entered the room.
And closed the door firmly behind her.
She knew exactly what these little troublemakers were like.
:"Ugh, that old hag is so shameless!"
:"Yeah, she always hogs all the good stuff. It’s so annoying! (｀ﾍ´)="
:"Hmph, she’s gone too far. The boss isn’t hers alone; he belongs to all of us."
:"Xia Xia, do you think the boss’s wife knows about this? He just got married not long ago."
:"Gasp!!!!!! That’s even better! Married men are the most attractive. Haven’t you noticed how much more charming the boss has become?"
:"Married men are the best!!!!"
The girls whispered among themselves.
But talk was all they could do.
They didn’t have the guts to act on it.
Even if they wanted to, they knew they wouldn’t stand a chance.
So, they could only dream.
Back to Xu Mo.
Inside the office.
Li Jiaxin was all smiles as she prepared the tea.
While Xu Mo sat in the boss’s chair.
That’s right.
Li Jiaxin had insisted he sit there.
Xu Mo had tried to refuse at first.
But Li Jiaxin wouldn’t have it.
She kept urging him to sit down.
And eventually, she even pulled him into the chair herself.
The room was heavy with the scent of perfume.
Xu Mo sniffed the air.
There were at least ten different brands of perfume lingering in the room.
Thinking of Li Jiaxin’s hobbies.
Xu Mo understood.
【o(^▽^)o How nice!】
【She’s already made this place her home. Since she’s given me no regrets, I’m willing to pay any price. Love is like a tidal wave~~~ Love is like a tidal wave, it surrounds you and me】
【The smell is so strong. I wish someone would open the window】
Rip-----------
Li Jiaxin opened the window herself.
Then she glanced at the stunned Xu Mo.
A seductive smile crept onto her lips.
"Boss, don’t mind it. It’s just a personal preference—I really like perfumes."
"And as a woman, owning ten different brands of perfume isn’t too much, is it?"
【Are you using them for yourself?】
【You’re using them on others.】
【You’re shameless!!】
【You’re disgraceful】
Xu Mo shook his head. "Not at all."
Li Jiaxin’s lips twitched, and she shot a sidelong glance at the composed An Youyi.
So frustrating!!!!
If An Youyi hadn’t been there.
Li Jiaxin would have taken full advantage of an ‘accident’!
She would have given Xu Mo a close embrace.
And followed it up with a perfect shoulder throw.
She could have blamed it on instinct.
And Xu Mo probably wouldn’t have said much about it.
After taking a sip of tea.
Xu Mo sat up straight and exchanged a look with An Youyi.
It was time to get down to business.
An Youyi nodded, then turned her gaze to Li Jiaxin.
Li Jiaxin had already prepared herself mentally.
But she couldn’t help feeling a little nervous now.
Aside from the complaints in Xu Mo’s inner voice.
There were also hints of other plans.
----------Recruitment, uprising!!!!
