"Alright, Iâve got some things to do, so Iâm leaving now. Monkey, come with me for a moment."
Hou Dayong said to Hu Zi, and then the two of them left the place.
"Vice Chief Ye, you really canât judge a book by its cover. I wouldâve never guessed you, with your refined appearance, would possess such strong abilities."
Hei Zi looked at Ye Luo with eyes full of amazement as he spoke.
"Yeah, Vice Chief Ye, you really opened our eyes today. To think your Strength could actually overpower Hu Zi, that freak."
The rest of the security guards all spoke with faces full of astonishment, their eyes looking at Ye Luo with a touch of admiration. They were all martial artists who revered the strong, and the Strength that Ye Luo had just displayed was enough to earn their worship.
"Iâve just learned a bit of kung fu since I was a kid, itâs nothing special."
Ye Luo said casually, enjoying the company of these people.
"Hey, Vice Chief Ye, we all really want to ask you a question, if you donât mind answering?"
Hei Ziâs gaze was fixed on Ye Luo as he couldnât help asking.
"You want to know what exactly is my relationship with the president, right? Whether or not Iâm her husband?"
Ye Luo smiled and hit the nail on the head with his guess about their question.
"Vice Chief Ye, youâre amazing to have guessed that. So, arenât you going to satisfy our curiosity?"
All of the twenty or so, nearly thirty people present turned their gazes toward Ye Luo, their eyes twinkling with anticipation.
"If I told you, Iâm afraid you wouldnât have this job to do. Do you still want to hear it?"
"Uh? Letâs forget about it then."
Hei Zi and the others changed their expressions and quickly spoke up.
"Heh heh."
Ye Luo chuckled and said, "To celebrate my inauguration today, Iâm treating everyone tonight. Anyone whoâs available can join."
"Really? Thatâs great, Iâm free tonight."
"Ah, too bad, I have to go home and take care of my kids."
"Haha, a big guy like you taking care of kids?"
The security guards laughed and joked with each other.
"During working hours, instead of properly standing guard, youâre all here laughing and joking. Do you still want this job?"
Just then, a cold and low voice suddenly sounded behind Ye Luo.
Immediately, all the security guards changed their expressions, quickly stood up straight, and wore serious demeanors.
"Huh, that voice sounds kind of familiar."
Upon hearing the voice, Ye Luo couldnât help but think.
"Who are you?"
By that time, the owner of the voice had already walked over, the deep voice arising next to Ye Luoâs ear, causing him to turn around sharply.
A woman wearing a grey business suit stood before him. She had a long and graceful figure, her lofty peaks tightly wrapped, and atop her slender neck was a delicate and dignified face with light makeup that made her look even more extraordinary. Her long hair was pulled up high, exuding an aura of authority.
This was a mature and charming professional woman, often referred to as a âqueen.â
However, when Ye Luo saw this figure, his eyes flashed with surprise, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a mischievous smile.
And Li Wanqin was completely stunned at this moment, looking at the man in front of her who had taken away her most precious thing, her expression starting to become lost as countless emotions surged within her.
Since that day when she had a fight with her family and, feeling upset, went to the bar to drink, she encountered a few hooligans. She then met a man, and due to a combination of circumstances, ended up going to a hotel where they involuntarily had an intimate encounter, and he took Li Wanqinâs first time.
She had thought that after that incident, she would never see that man again, and that the whole thing would be permanently erased from her memory, but she never expected to see this man again today within the company.
Indeed, this mature woman appearing before Ye Luo was the very same woman from the Meili Bar whom Ye Luo had taken away, the one who had taken his virginity.
Some things are just so coincidental; Ye Luo had never imagined he would get another chance to meet the woman who had changed him from a virgin to a man.
"Beautiful, are you talking about me?"
Ye Luo said with a hint of a roguish smile on his lips, his eyes shimmering with an unusual light.
As for Li Wanqin, her complexion changed repeatedly and after a moment of silence, she spat out, "Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
"Nice to meet you, beautiful. My name is Ye Luo. I am now the Deputy Director of Security at Ling Corporation. Just now, I was just getting to know my subordinates; we might have gotten a bit carried away with our work."
"Youâre the Deputy Director of Security?"
Li Wanqinâs eyes narrowed as she looked at Ye Luo.
"Of course, they can confirm it,"
Ye Luo said, pointing to the group behind him.
"Yes, Director Li, he really is our new Deputy Director of Security, and he was personally appointed by the president,"
Hei Zi quickly chimed in.
"So youâre Director Li, then. Do you believe me now?"
Ye Luo looked at Li Wanqin with a smile beaming on his face.
"Come to my office."
Li Wanqin said bluntly, and began walking toward the inside, with Ye Luo following leisurely behind her.
"This wonât cause any trouble, right?"
One of the security guards couldnât help but speak up.
"What trouble could it cause? Although Director Li has been in a bit of a bad mood recently, she wouldnât do anything to Vice Chief Ye. Donât forget, she has a good relationship with the president. Would she really make things difficult for the presidentâs husband?"
"Right, youâve got a point there,"
At this moment, Hu Zi chimed in, "Alright, everyone go back to your posts and stop gossiping."
Then, the security guards scattered back to their respective positions.
Following Li Wanqin, Ye Luo arrived at the 25th floor of Ling Corporation, which was the floor where Ling Qingya had previously been.
The beautiful Zhou Siqi had mentioned that this floor was reserved for the top executives of Ling Corporation. Li Wanqinâs office was surprisingly also located here, recalling how the security guards had addressed her just a while ago.
Clearly, this mature and beautiful woman who had taken Ye Luoâs virginity was one of the top executives at Ling Corporation.
This really was interesting. His fiancĂ©e and his first woman happened to be in the same company, on the same floor. One couldnât help but say the arrangement by fate was truly wondrous.
Soon Li Wanqin brought Ye Luo into an office. Although it wasnât as large as Ling Qingyaâs, it was several times the size of Ye Luoâs office, decorated in black and white, giving off a very solemn and profound feeling.
"How did you find out I was here? Didnât I say that night was an accident, and that we would be strangers from then on, not knowing each other? Why are you still troubling me?"
Just as Ye Luo walked into the office and closed the door, he heard Li Wanqinâs cool voice. She stood in front of her desk, looking at Ye Luo with a cold face and furrowed brows.
Ye Luo was first taken aback, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
