Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Things Not Meant to Be Seen
Surrounded by Yu Lei International employees, with her husband and younger brother-in-law facing her, this man\'s hand was wandering on her body, and what\'s worse, she couldn\'t even muster the strength to break free!
Zhao Hongyan felt her heart pounding in her throat, more thrilling than riding a roller coaster. She was afraid of being noticed by the people around her, yet she faintly anticipated and even enjoyed it.
When people surpass their psychological limits, they often see their true selves. At this moment, Zhao Hongyan inwardly discovered, with embarrassment, that she didn\'t actually reject Yang Chen\'s excessive behavior because she was starting to feel a flood of moisture below.
Was she truly a flirtatious woman?
This ethical and moral question made Zhao Hongyan forget about the embarrassing situation in front of her, sinking into her own internal struggle.
Seeing the woman he had been yearning for being embraced by Yang Chen, and his hand even touching her buttocks, Yu Hui was itching with anger. He turned to his older brother, Yu Guang, and said, "Brother, his actions are a direct insult to you, to us, the entire Yu family. We cannot tolerate this!"
Yu Guang was initially just angry at Yang Chen\'s boldness, but upon hearing his brother\'s explanation, he immediately became heated. "Yang Chen! Are you provoking our Yu family with this behavior?!"
"So what if I am?"
"Are you aware of the consequences of your actions?!" Yu Guang questioned angrily.
Yang Chen couldn\'t be bothered to speak further. With a slight smirk, he suddenly reached out his other hand and lightly pinched Zhao Hongyan\'s smooth and round chin. Zhao Hongyan was still in a daze, not making any resistance, allowing Yang Chen to pinch her chin, tilting her head slightly upward to face him directly. Her eyes were misty, lost in thought.
The next moment, the whole scene erupted in incredulous gasps once again.
Yang Chen didn\'t hesitate at all. He lowered his head and kissed Zhao Hongyan directly!
Whether it was the Yu brothers or the employees present, they all watched this scene unfold before them.
Zhao Hongyan\'s mind was almost blank. When Yang Chen kissed her, the fiery breath was like thunder striking her already cluttered mind, purifying all her thoughts in an instant!
Only one thought remained, enough to stop her heart: He\'s kissing me! He\'s really kissing me!
Their embrace, combined with the situation, seemed incredibly romantic to many of the young men and women present. Applause and cheers started to fill the air.
The expressions of Yu Guang and Yu Hui alternated between black and white, speechless.
After a while, Zhao Hongyan was already in a daze, her body soft as water. It was only then that Yang Chen slowly released her.
Zhao Hongyan was still lost in a daze, her lips half-open, looking at Yang Chen. Her seductive and mature posture aroused strong jealousy among many male employees.
"I-I-I want to see your boss! The leader of Yu Lei! Immediately! I strongly demand that this shameless scum be kicked out! Someone like him should be thrown into jail!" Yu Guang roared furiously, veins popping on his forehead, trembling as he pointed at Yang Chen.
"Who wants to see me?"
A cold and melodious voice suddenly appeared at this moment. All the Yu Lei employees who heard the voice showed nervous expressions, respectfully turning their heads to look at the newcomer.
Accompanied by Secretary Wu Yue and several senior executives, Lin Ruoxi, dressed in a pure black waist-tailored uniform, walked gracefully in her silver-gray crystal-like high heels. Her face remained as cold and dignified as ever, like a fairy untouched by the mundane world.
"Hello, President Lin!"
A group of onlookers immediately greeted loudly and bowed slightly, not daring to breathe too loudly. Obviously, Lin Ruoxi\'s usual aura had reached a terrifying level.
Lin Ruoxi glanced coldly at them. "I pay you wages to work, not to watch the excitement."
With that, everyone scattered as if they had been injected with adrenaline, scrambling to leave the scene by squeezing into elevators or running up stairs. In their eyes, Lin Ruoxi might be a super beauty, but when a beauty becomes their employer, she might as well be a demon.
The Yu brothers were also stunned by Lin Ruoxi\'s appearance. They never expected that the president of such a large company would be such a young girl, and her frosty demeanor made them feel weak all over.
Zhao Hongyan, who was still being held by Yang Chen, suddenly came to her senses. When she saw Lin Ruoxi\'s seemingly casual gaze sweeping over, her body reacted as if she had been shocked, pushing Yang Chen away. Her face flushed red as she lowered her head, wanting to escape from the scene, but her feet were stuck to the ground out of fear.
A pair of watery and charming eyes glanced quietly at Yang Chen. This man had embarrassed her, yet she couldn\'t bring herself to be angry with him. She was on the verge of going crazy.
Yang Chen smiled wryly, rubbed his nose, and didn\'t know what to say. His plan to tease the Yu brothers had been completely disrupted by Lin Ruoxi\'s sudden arrival. What\'s worse, Lin Ruoxi\'s appearance, full of "killing intent," clearly indicated that she had seen the passionate kiss between him and Zhao Hongyan!
Kissing a female colleague in front of his wife, in his wife\'s company, if it weren\'t for Lin Ruoxi, other women would have come over and torn him apart!
"I am Lin Ruoxi, the CEO and Chairman of Yulei International. What can I do for you?" Lin Ruoxi glanced at Yang Chen and then turned to the Yu brothers without giving him another look.
Yu Guang finally regained his composure and stood up straight, saying forcefully, "I am Yu Guang, the editor-in-chief of \'Guanghua Daily\' and \'Righteousness\' magazine. This is my brother, Yu Hui. This man named Yang Chen from your company is having an affair with my wife, Zhao Hongyan, and even committed such despicable acts in public! As the CEO of the company, I believe, Miss Lin, you should dismiss them all!"
An affair? Lin Ruoxi glanced briefly at Yang Chen and then took a few more glances at Zhao Hongyan\'s face. She felt a wave of powerlessness. Indeed, she was very beautiful, and this guy had quite high standards.
Although she knew this man must have had his fair share of affairs, couldn\'t he control himself since she was a married woman? Just a moment ago, she was inspecting the office with several management personnel, and she happened to stumble upon such a situation. Even if she wanted to ignore it, there was no chance to escape.
Lin Ruoxi felt a bit bitter. Although she had said at the time of marriage that she wouldn\'t interfere with her partner\'s private life, and she hadn\'t fulfilled her wifely duties either, she felt embarrassed to speak up and restrain Yang Chen in that aspect. She could only turn a blind eye, even though it was frustrating.
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Ruoxi asked Wu Yue, who was quickly typing on her palm computer, "Secretary Wu, does the company have any regulations prohibiting relationships between male and female employees?"
"Report to the CEO, there are no relevant regulations!" Wu Yue replied promptly.
"In that case, I\'m sorry, but this matter is not within my jurisdiction. It\'s the employees\' own problem. Please resolve it privately," Lin Ruoxi said, intending to leave.
Yu Guang couldn\'t just let it go like that, thinking that Lin Ruoxi was deliberately trying to protect Yang Chen and Zhao Hongyan. He said fiercely, "Miss Lin, your approach is irresponsible! As an entrepreneur, you should shoulder social responsibility. Such a gross violation of morals and customs should be severely punished! If you do nothing and let them go, I will definitely expose the corrupt culture of your company in our magazine! Let everyone know that Yulei International harbors such adulterers and adulteresses!"
Lin Ruoxi turned around, her delicate face frosty. "Mr. Yu, can I interpret this as a form of coercion?"
"If Miss Lin insists on seeing it that way," Yu Guang said smugly, thinking Lin Ruoxi must be afraid. After all, such large companies are most afraid of tarnishing their reputation.
Lin Ruoxi suddenly asked Wu Yue, who had been searching for something beside her, "Wu Yue, have you found out everything?"
"Reporting to the CEO, according to the data, \'Guanghua Daily\' and \'Righteousness\' magazine are political journals founded by the Yu family over thirty years ago, primarily distributed to government departments in the southern regions of Yanxia. The total brand value is approximately 5.65 million Yanxian coins, and the preliminary estimate of the Yu family\'s assets is about 12 million Yanxian coins," Wu Yue, like a rapidly operating intelligent computer, quickly reported the information, knowing Lin Ruoxi\'s character well in advance.
Lin Ruoxi nodded, extending her slender white hand toward Wu Yue.
Wu Yue understood and immediately took out a checkbook from her briefcase, handing it to Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi picked up a steel pen she carried with her and started writing on the checkbook with a "swish" sound.
The Yu brothers were puzzled, not understanding what Lin Ruoxi was up to, but they were tense. Even though this incredibly beautiful woman didn\'t say a word, her presence alone was enough to make them feel intimidated.
Zhao Hongyan breathed a sigh of relief. She had been worried that Yang Chen would be fired because of her, but it seemed that the CEO didn\'t have that intention. She glanced cautiously at Yang Chen beside her and was astonished to find him still smiling there with a relaxed expression. Goodness! Was his nerve really that thick?
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi finished writing the check. She tore it gently, handing the remaining check to Wu Yue.
"This Swiss bank check is from my personal account and has nothing to do with the company\'s finances. It\'s worth 20 million Yanxian coins, about 4 million more than the sum of your newspaper, magazine, and all your assets combined. You can withdraw or transfer it anytime at the Swiss bank branch in Zhonghai. If Mr. Yu wants to report today\'s events, I don\'t mind forcibly acquiring all your newspapers and magazines. Although we only engage in fashion magazine publishing, for my company with assets exceeding 90 billion, absorbing a small political magazine company is insignificant. Don\'t doubt my determination. In the face of absolute funds, you have no chance of winning," Lin Ruoxi said, handing the completed check to Wu Yue beside her. "Secretary Wu, if you see something you shouldn\'t, use the method I just mentioned."
"Yes, CEO," Wu Yue replied, placing the check securely into her briefcase. With just a casual act, it was a huge sum of 20 million!
The Yu brothers turned pale directly, their lips trembling, unable to utter a word. They watched Lin Ruoxi leave with a group of straight-backed executives, but they didn\'t dare to say anything anymore. If their industry were truly acquired, even if they took the money, they wouldn\'t be able to recreate such a highly reputed magazine in just a few years. They could only imagine the bleak future.
Just when everyone thought the matter had ended, Wu Yue, who had walked a short distance with Lin Ruoxi, suddenly turned back. She walked up to Yang Chen and Zhao Hongyan and mechanically said, "CEO Lin wants to see you. Go to her office in five minutes."
