Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

"Miss, do you need any service?"

Ye Mei's office door was ajar, when suddenly a tapping of fingers on the glass rang out, followed by a sly voice.

Engrossed in her work, Ye Mei felt a flame of irritation ignite in her eyes at the sound, but a flash of surprise crossed her face upon seeing that mischievous smile, which she quickly concealed.

"What brings a busy person like you to my humble abode today?"

Ye Mei asked with a hint of coldness in her voice. She had called him three days ago, and his presence now indicated he hadn't taken her seriously at all.

"Yo, you're still mad? But look, I've come, haven't I?"

Su Chen took a seat in the chair in front of her desk with ease:

"What do you need me for?"

"There was something, but it's not needed now. You can go back to your own stuff!"

Ye Mei was indeed telling the truth, but her words carried a hint of petulance, like a girl whining to her boyfriend.

It must be said, sometimes Su Chen was quite slow to catch on in emotional matters. For example, right now he asked with some confusion:

"What was it that you needed?"

"You're such a blockhead!"

Ye Mei cursed silently in her heart, then responded coolly:

"I was originally going to ask you to accompany me to Europe, but now the plans have been delayed. We can talk about it later."

Indeed, she was supposed to meet with someone from Almei Group, but due to recent issues with the Liu Family, she negotiated a postponement with the other party.

After all, with the Liu Family's fall, everyone in Jiangnan's business circles was scrambling for a piece of the pie, and Ye Mei was no exception, hence her preoccupation lately.

The folks at Almei had promptly sought guidance from the Phillip Family. She had expected some annoyance on their part, but instead, they contacted her directly, conveying their willingness to meet anytime and hinting at wanting to meet the original owner of the pendant.

"Alright, just let me know when you're going, and that'll do."

Su Chen was rather indifferent to this. He'd consider it a leisure trip; after all, it had been over a year since his last visit.

"By the way, are you involved with the Liu Family incident?"

Ye Mei suddenly asked, her beautiful eyes fixed tightly on Su Chen.

She knew that Su Chen was no ordinary man and that he had quite a few beefs with the Liu Family.

"How could that be?" Su Chen was briefly startled before he laughed, "Do you really think I'm capable of pulling off such a thing?"

"Maybe I am overthinking it."

Ye Mei forced a smile and shook her head. Whoever brought the Liu Family to such a state surely had sky-high influence!

Although Su Chen was mysterious and extraordinary, and even had some connections with the Phillip Family, he probably wasn't at that level yet.

Everyone knew the kind of strength it took to do something like that! This was the actual reason why the other three major houses had been relatively quiet lately. The Wu Family even put their assassination plan for Su Chen on hold, opting to see how things unfold before taking any further action.

"Is Yaning around? I'd like to check on her."

Su Chen didn't want to continue discussing this topic, so he inquired.

"She's not here. She's seemed a bit preoccupied these past few days, not in the best of moods, so I told her to take a break and go home."

When it came to Xiao Yaning, Ye Mei's brow furrowed slightly. As her close friend, she naturally cared a lot about her.

"Preoccupied? With what?"

"I don't know, she wouldn't say when I asked her. It must be her personal matter."

With that, Ye Mei scrutinized Su Chen:

"You didn't bully her, did you?"

Ye Mei asked this because she knew that Xiao Yaning had the same feelings for Su Chen as herself.

Aside from Su Chen, she really couldn't think of anyone else or anything else that might leave her so distracted and unable to eat or drink.

"It's a total misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding. I haven't seen her in a long time, okay?"

Su Chen quickly raised his hands to plead his innocence, and he was also very curious about what had happened to Xiao Yaning.

"Maybe I should go and see what's wrong with her."

"No, don't. That girl is sensitive. Let her have some quiet time by herself first. She'll talk when she's ready."

"Alright then, I'll listen to you for now."

Although Su Chen wasn't able to give the two women what they most desired, in the end, they were both good friends in his heart.

Su Chen stayed in Ye Mei's office for an hour or two before leaving and heading straight home, after all, Lin Ruoxue was still recuperating at home!

After arriving home, Su Chen naturally went straight to Lin Ruoxue's bedroom. Upon pushing the door open, he found not a soul inside.

Just then, a faint "rustling" sound came from the study next door, and Su Chen's face instantly grew long.

This woman had just woken up from a coma and was already working again, utterly disregarding her own health.

He walked to the door of the study and forcefully pushed it open, looking at Lin Ruoxue with an angry face.

Lin Ruoxue, hearing the door open, couldn't help but look up. When she saw Su Chen's angry expression, she started to feel scared. It seemed like the first time Su Chen had ever shown such an expression to her.

"Husband, I..."

Lin Ruoxue didn't know why, but seeing Su Chen like this, she suddenly felt a bit panicked...

"You've got another half hour. In half an hour, you must go back to the bedroom to rest!"

Su Chen gave a cold snort and walked out.

"Oh, got it."

Lin Ruoxue sounded like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to retort.

After Su Chen walked out of the study, a smile couldn't help but appear on the corners of his mouth:

"Seems like this trick still works pretty well!"

Actually, when he had returned home just now and saw that Lin Ruoxue wasn't resting, he was indeed a bit angry.

After going downstairs, Su Chen went to his room to practice Cultivation, since there was still some time before dinner.

After working for another half hour, Lin Ruoxue obediently went back to the room to rest until it was time for dinner when Wang's mother called her down.

"Miss, I think it's about time. Are you planning to head to Tianshan soon?"

While they were finishing dinner, Wang's mother casually asked.

"Mm, in about three days."

Lin Ruoxue nodded, Su Chen had mentioned that her body would be almost recovered in a couple of days, and now she absolutely trusted Su Chen's medical skills.

"Wang's mother, have you got everything ready?"

Lin Ruoxue asked somewhat uneasily.

"Don't worry, everything has been prepared long ago."

Wang's mother replied with a smile.

"What exactly are you going to do in Tianshan?"

Since the last time they mentioned going to Tianshan, Su Chen still didn't understand what they were going to do.

"Why all the questions? You'll find out when we get there!"

Lin Ruoxue chided, regaining her usual demeanor with no sign of the fear she had shown just before.

"Really, making it all so mysterious."

Su Chen couldn't help but purse his lips and mumble...
