Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 736: Chapter 732: It’s Over

Inside the chairman’s office.

Bai Zhiqing sat at her desk, seriously reviewing a document. Hearing the door open, she didn’t look up and continued to focus on the document in her hands. She knew well that in Bai’s Group, the only person who would enter without knocking was Lu Tianxing; she had grown accustomed to it.

Moreover, Lu Tianxing was now her husband. If he still needed to knock before entering the office, they might as well not be married—what difference would it make? As a smart and powerful woman, she understood where to be assertive and where not to be. Being stubbornly forceful would lead to utter failure in love. Even if a man loved her deeply, he would eventually leave due to her dominance—something she’d rather not see.

Lu Tianxing greeted Bai Zhiqing and then turned directly back to his assistant’s spot and opened his computer.

Bai Zhiqing, slightly puzzled, looked up at the assistant’s position and slightly furrowed her brows. Normally, Lu Tianxing would not just go to his spot so simply and sit quietly; what made him so docile today!

With a furrow of her delicate eyebrows, Bai Zhiqing shook her head. She didn’t bother with Lu Tianxing, thinking he might be upset about something that had happened that morning. She didn’t say anything and lowered her head to continue working on some of the accumulated documents of Bai’s Group. Although she trusted Mandala’s business acumen, some matters still required her personal attention.

After the computer booted up, Lu Tianxing made no pause and chose a famous news website in Modu. As soon as the homepage loaded, his eye was caught by a headline about him and Bai Zhiqing exiting the airport, clearly stating: ”Chairwoman of Bai’s Group and Mysterious Man Seen Leaving Airport, Modu’s Business Goddess Bai Zhiqing Suspected to be Married.”

Seeing this headline, Lu Tianxing’s expression changed. He immediately clicked on the webpage, and instantly, more than twenty photos appeared.

Looking at the photos on the website, where Bai Zhiqing was affectionately nestled in his arms, radiating a happy smile, the pictures thoroughly painted an extraordinary relationship between him and Bai Zhiqing. Even if not married, they were undoubtedly in love. Below the news, there were countless comments filled with regret that the goddess was taken and even more angry comments, with threats and harsh words.

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing’s face turned completely dark, not because of the netizens’ comments but because of the website. If he remembered correctly, Lin Qianru, when unemployed, also liked to browse this website, which was one of her favorites. Now, with this intimate snapshot of Bai Zhiqing and him on the homepage, Lin Qianru was bound to see it.

Thinking of this, Lu Tianxing felt dizzy, left only with the thought that the situation was grave, seeming like a critical mistake.

If Lin Qianru found out and barged into the office, causing a conflict with Bai Zhiqing, and if the two started to fight, whom should he help, or should he just stand aside, watch, and cheer?

Thinking this, Lu Tianxing revealed a wry smile at the corner of his mouth. It seemed that juggling two relationships wasn’t fun at all; now he was about to capsize, and if not handled well, he would definitely capsize.

At this moment, Bai Zhiqing noticed the change in Lu Tianxing’s expression and asked, ”Lu Tianxing, what’s wrong? You look very upset. Are you not feeling well?”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s caring words, Lu Tianxing snapped back to reality, lit himself a cigarette, and exhaled a smoke ring before slowly saying, ”Wife, it seems our relationship has been exposed. You’ve become famous now, a social media sensation.”

”What do you mean?”

Bai Zhiqing slightly startled, looked at Lu Tianxing with a puzzled face.

”Come over here and take a look yourself!”

Lu Tianxing sighed, feeling a headache coming on, not knowing how to face Lin Qianru.

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing did not hesitate. She placed the documents she was holding down and walked towards Lu Tianxing, her hands resting on the desk as she focused her gaze on the computer.

”Wife, take a look.”

As he spoke, Lu Tianxing moved the mouse and reopened the webpage.

Bai Zhiqing glanced at the computer screen, and when she saw herself holding Lu Tianxing’s arm with a sweet smile, her expression changed slightly. Then, her face remained expressionless as she continued to look through the images, one after another, until she had seen them all, still showing no emotion.

”Wife, what’s wrong? Should we contact this website and have them take down all our photos? They are infringing on our portrait rights,” Lu Tianxing suggested, looking at Bai Zhiqing.

”Close it? Why close it? We are husband and wife after all. What does it matter if they post it?” Bai Zhiqing came to her senses and spoke indifferently.

”But what if people at the company find out and start spreading all sorts of rumors? I don’t care what they say about me, but what if they say you are too desperate, even for a CEO’s Assistant?”

”If they dare, whoever dares to talk nonsense, I won’t mind making them leave immediately.”

A cold glint flashed in Bai Zhiqing’s eyes as her gaze suddenly fell on Lu Tianxing. She said coldly, ”Lu Tianxing, why do you keep telling me to delete the photos? What are you implying? Did marrying me make you feel shortchanged, so you don’t want others to see? Or is it because our relationship being exposed makes it impossible for you to flirt with girls at work? I’m telling you, this is a company, not your harem. You better control yourself, or you’ll bear the consequences.”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing, with a frustrated expression, said, ”Wife, you’re overthinking it. I’m just worried about the hassle it will bring me when I go out. Didn’t you see those comments below? I’m afraid I’ll have to cover my face like Arab women when I go out in the future. What if someone attacks me?”

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, a sly smile appeared on Bai Zhiqing’s lips, her tone carrying a hint of threat, ”Glad you get it. If you ever betray me, watch out for what’s in your pants.”

With that, Bai Zhiqing’s gaze swept across Lu Tianxing’s crotch, flashing a cold glint before she stood up and walked back to her own seat.

Lu Tianxing watched Bai Zhiqing’s departing figure, the wry smile on his face deepening. He was not worried about being attacked halfway by someone nor about people online saying he’s a toad dreaming of swan meat; what he really cared about was Lin Qianru. Moreover, he was almost certain that Lin Qianru now knew about his relationship with Bai Zhiqing and could confront him at any moment.

He could be indifferent to others’ feelings, but he could not ignore Lin Qianru’s feelings.

What to do next!
