Chapter 133: Something's wrong, I'm retreating first [29th 2/13]
Xu Hao quickly said, "I'm not thirsty, I'm not thirsty."
"Huh?" Jiang Xue Zhu turned her head and said, "On the way here, you clearly said you were very thirsty."
Xu Hao was resigned; these two girls were at loggerheads.
Yet it seemed Jiang Xue Zhu didn't really know how to serve people; she poured the tea and handed it to Xu Hao, who had no choice but to take a sip, only to immediately spit it out.
It was too hot!
Chen Suyi flicked her bangs and pouted, "Is this how you serve people? Not even water for scalding pig skin is that hot!"
Chen Suyi twisted open the cold water dispenser, got a cup of ice water, and handed it to Xu Hao.
Xu Hao took the ice-cold cup, his heart bitter. By all rights, being served by two beauties should feel blissful and comfortable, right?
But why did he feel so tormented? He was caught between fire and ice!
Seeing the eager and slightly threatening look in Chen Suyi's eyes, Xu Hao "endured the pain" and took a sip of ice water.
"Husband, let me massage your back."
Jiang Xue Zhu, not to be outdone, walked behind Xu Hao and started massaging his back.
Chen Suyi snorted, "Who can't do that! Husband, I'll massage your legs for you."
With that, she lifted her skirt, squatted down, and began to massage Xu Hao's legs.
At first, Xu Hao quite enjoyed it, thinking that Jiang Xue Zhu finally knew how to serve someone, but soon he felt something was amiss.
Why was the pressure of her fists getting stronger?
And the strength that Chen Suyi used to massage his legs was increasing too.
He turned his head and saw Jiang Xue Zhu and Chen Suyi glaring at each other, flaring nostrils, neither willing to back down.
Xu Hao's heart soured. Both girls had competitive natures, and if he let them continue their shenanigans, who knew when they would stop.
Thinking this, Xu Hao quietly dialed Liu Ruyan's number.
Liu Ruyan was in a meeting at the company. Hearing her phone ring and recognizing Xu Hao's special ringtone, she quickly stepped out to answer the call, "Husband."
Xu Hao turned on the speaker and pretended it was Liu Ruyan who had called him, saying, "Wife, Jiang Xue Zhu and Chen Suyi are both here with me. Do you need something?"
Liu Ruyan was about to say it was him who had called her, but upon hearing the names Jiang Xue Zhu and Chen Suyi, she instantly understood — Xu Hao must be entangled by these two girls and was seeking her help.
She quickly said, "Husband, your classmate Zhao Feng has arrived at our company. If you're free, come over and help him find a position."
Xu Hao glanced at Jiang Xue Zhu and Chen Suyi and thought to himself that if he went now, these two would likely follow, so he said, "No, I can't come over right now. Why don't you come here instead?"
Liu Ruyan chuckled to herself, delighted that Xu Hao had his moments of being overwhelmed and needing to plead for help. She instructed her secretary to inform the management that the meeting was over and then said, "Alright, I'll come over."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Liu Ruyan arrived, she could keep the two girls preoccupied; as for himself, he would naturally seize the chance to slip away.
Chen Suyi suddenly said, "Hmph! Sister Ru Yan will definitely side with me."
Jiang Xue Zhu said with disdain, "Psh! She was my college classmate, we're sisters who slept in the same bunk beds!"
Chen Suyi, not to be outdone, "I've known her for a long time, she'll definitely help me."
Jiang Xue Zhu, "She and I were college classmates, we're sisters who slept in the same bunk beds!"
Chen Suyi, "I've had great chats with her these past few days, and our relationship is really good."
Jiang Xue Zhu, "She and I were college classmates, we're sisters who slept in the same bunk beds!"
...
No matter what Chen Suyi said, Jiang Xue Zhu always had just one response: she and I were college classmates, we're sisters who slept in the same bunk beds!
Xu Hao couldn't help but internally sigh, realizing the true nature of humans to repeat themselves. And Chen Suyi had no way to counteract it.
As Xu Hao eagerly anticipated inside, Liu Ruyan finally arrived.
Seeing Liu Ruyan, both girls seemed to forget about fighting over "Husband Xu Hao" and instead competed to greet Liu Ruyan first. They kept calling "Sister Ru Yan" one after another, showing extreme affection.
Seizing the opportunity, Xu Hao immediately slipped out of the photo studio.
Situation's awry, I'm bailing.
Looking out at the vast land and towering skyscrapers, with the overly sweet words the two crazy girls were saying to Liu Ruyan in the background, Xu Hao shook his head and decided to seek refuge at Qin Yao's place.
When Qin Yao saw Xu Hao, she was overjoyed. She quickly stood up from her office chair and threw herself into Xu Hao's arms, saying tenderly, "You bad boy, where have you been these past few days, not even a word to me."
Xu Hao smiled and, holding her, sat down. He briefly recounted his experience in Huadu, but only mentioned the matter of the Anthony Jade agency rights and the land auction.
"You bad boy, why spend so much money on a piece of land? What a waste," Qin Yao said softly, lightly punching Xu Hao's chest.
Xu Hao replied with a smile, "Isn't money meant to be spent? Buying a large plot of land allows us to build a big industrial park, so we can produce more and better products."
Just then, a sarcastic voice came from outside, "I was wondering why Chairman Qin was too busy, turns out she's in her office having a rendezvous with her lover!"
