42: Chapter 039: Beauty of the Land in One Pot 42: Chapter 039: Beauty of the Land in One Pot “Yu Xin, you can’t go back to the company!”

At noon, Su Liuli, who usually enjoyed sleeping in, got out of bed and immediately rushed into the study to persuade Su Yuxin upon learning that she intended to return to work.

Su Yuxin was reviewing tender documents when Su Liuli burst in, a mixture of urgency and concern, causing her to put the documents aside with a wry smile.

“Your health has only just started to improve.

What if going back to work at the company exhausts you?

What if your illness relapses?” Seeing that Su Yuxin remained silent, Su Liuli continued to speak, her words tumbling out in a rapid-fire burst, like machine-gun fire.

Feeling Su Liuli’s concern, Su Yuxin felt a surge of warmth in her heart and said half seriously, half jestingly, “It’s fine.

Doctor Ye has said he will follow me everywhere to treat me, ensuring that there will be no relapse.”

“What…

what?”

On hearing this, Su Liuli’s eyes widened in shock, and then, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she jumped up.

“Yu Xin, you definitely can’t go back to work at the company then!”

“Why not?”

“Sima Zhao’s heart—everyone knows.”

Speaking earnestly, Su Liuli said, “That wolf has always had bad intentions towards you.

If he follows you around to treat you, it’s like he gets to be with you every day.

It’s only a matter of time before he completely ensnares you.”

“Nonsense, how could Doctor Ye be that kind of person!”

Su Yuxin glared at Su Liuli, not amused, yet she couldn’t stop her mind from recalling the bliss she had uncontrollably tasted the night before, as well as the fact that she hadn’t worn a bra that morning—her face instantly flushed red.

“Yu…

Yu Xin, you haven’t already fallen into that guy’s amorous trap, have you?” Seeing Su Yuxin’s blush and the elusive sparkle in her eyes, like a shy, demure woman, Su Liuli asked with nervous tension.

“Liuli, you can say whatever you want about me, but don’t slander Doctor Ye.

Doctor Ye is a good person.” Seemingly afraid that Su Liuli would glimpse the secret in her heart, Su Yuxin quickly adjusted her expression and spoke in a serious tone.

“Just tell me yes or no,” Su Liuli insisted stubbornly, as if she would confront Ye Fan if Su Yuxin dared to admit anything.

“What on earth are you thinking about all day long?”

Su Yuxin stood up and tapped Su Liuli’s head in mild irritation, “If there’s nothing else, don’t disturb me, I’m busy looking at the tender documents.”

“Mmm…”

Convinced by Su Yuxin’s firm focus on her work and seeming lack of entanglement in Ye Fan’s trap, Su Liuli couldn’t help but remind her, “Yu Xin, I still think you should seriously consider my suggestion.”

This time, Su Yuxin chose not to respond and picked up the tender documents once again.

“Fine, I know that even if I held a knife to your neck, you would still go back to the company.”

Understanding Su Yuxin’s stubborn nature and knowing that she wouldn’t change her decision, Su Liuli, who would rather face the wall than turn back, could only give up on persuading her.

However, she cautioned, “But even if you’re determined to go back, and let that guy follow you around, you should still be wary of him and not be deceived by appearances.”

“I get it.”

Su Yuxin couldn’t help but laugh and cry at her own situation.

She knew that if she didn’t agree with Su Liuli, with her sister’s personality, she would nag like Tang Seng by her side all day long.

“Then I can go to Southern Tibet at ease.”

Seeing that Su Yuxin had agreed, Su Liuli felt relieved and decided to carry out her ‘Southern Tibet road trip’ plan that she had conceived two days ago—during their previous journey to Spirit Mountain to seek medical advice, she had discovered the beauty of the Sichuan-Tibet Line, but her concern for Su Yuxin’s health had prevented her from enjoying the scenery; she now wanted to remedy that regret.

“The Sichuan-Tibet Line is fraught with danger; be very careful on your own.”

While Su Yuxin advised caution, she understood that Su Hongyuan would have the Su Family’s Bodyguards protect Su Liuli’s safety along the way, so she wasn’t too worried.

After being disrupted by Su Liuli, Su Yuxin somehow lost the will to continue reviewing the documents and suddenly remembered that Ye Fan would follow her to the company but didn’t have formal attire.

With that thought, Su Yuxin set aside the tender documents and went to Ye Fan’s bedroom.

In the bedroom, Ye Fan was engrossed in a game of “League of Legends” on Su Jindi’s laptop.

Su Jindi, who had taught Ye Fan the game, had gone out to party with his friends as school was starting the next day.

“Lady Su, do you need something?” Noticing Su Yuxin standing at the door, Ye Fan turned around and asked.

“Doctor Ye, here’s the thing—I’d like to take you shopping for a few work-appropriate outfits.”

Originally, Su Yuxin, because of the events of last night and this morning, had felt somewhat reluctant to face Ye Fan, but seeing him engaged in the game, she suddenly found the situation amusing and relaxed.

Ye Fan was taken aback: “Buy clothes?”

“Yes.”

Su Yuxin nodded, choosing not to hide anything, and explained, “I’ve been thinking, and I’ve decided to have you join the company under the title of President’s Assistant.

Generally, you need to dress formally when going to the office.”

“Alright then.”

Ye Fan nodded, he had followed Chu Xuanji to learn from the Outer Eight Sects, and among them, members of the ‘Suoming Sect’ often had to disguise themselves as different people in order to complete their tasks, so he naturally understood the logic of dressing appropriately for different occasions.

Seeing that Ye Fan did not find such things embarrassing or disgraceful like ordinary people, but rather agreed without hesitation, Su Yuxin was not surprised.

Because…

through the events of the previous night, she understood that the power behind Ye Fan was extremely formidable, and more importantly, the pride exuding from Ye Fan’s very being meant that he would never care about such trivial matters.

Whether it was because she had not formally gone out in a long time or for some other reason, Su Yuxin took a full thirty minutes to apply makeup and dress up just to accompany Ye Fan clothes shopping.

Thirty minutes later, Su Yuxin finished her makeover and came to the living room.

Hm?

Despite already knowing of Su Yuxin’s beauty, having seen her fully dolled up, Ye Fan found her absolutely stunning.

Today, Su Yuxin let her hair down, casually resting on her shoulders, with light makeup that made her bright eyes seem larger, and her lips were brushed a light pink, exceptionally tempting.

She was still wearing her favorite black dress, but the crystal flip-flops were replaced with a pair of high heels, which made her legs appear more slender and her figure even taller.

What deserves more attention is that with the increase in her height, her aura of a cold and stunning CEO was vaguely highlighted—if it hadn’t been for the fashionable Hermes handbag she carried, she would have given off an untouchable aura, the kind that one would admire from a distance but not dare to defile.

For some reason, Su Yuxin did not ask the Su Family’s bodyguard to drive, but instead wanted to drive Ye Fan herself to buy clothes, which was rejected by Ye Fan on the grounds that she was still recovering and should not be driving.

However, Ye Fan did not let the Su Family’s bodyguard take the wheel either, but rather took on the role of the driver himself.

Due to traffic, it took forty minutes for Ye Fan and Su Yuxin to arrive at the busiest commercial area in Hanghu.

Her busy work schedule prevented Su Yuxin from shopping frequently like ordinary women; her clothes were either custom-made by master tailors or bought from well-known brand stores in Hanghu.

But——

For some reason today, instead of heading straight to the designer stores, Su Yuxin strolled through the streets with Ye Fan like a couple, occasionally entering shops to browse.

“Hey, isn’t that Su Yuxin?”

When Ye Fan and Su Yuxin walked out of a men’s fashion store, a finely dressed young man in a tea house across the building caught sight of Su Yuxin by chance and was greatly surprised, “Wasn’t it said that Su Yuxin is an ice rose who never interacts with men?

Why is she shopping with a man this time?”

“Su Yuxin shopping with a man?

Are you seeing things?”

Along with the young man, four others were having tea and chatting; they were all dressed in designer clothes and were among Hanghu’s well-to-do, naturally having heard of Su Yuxin’s reputation.

Hearing what the young man said, they all were skeptical, sticking their heads out the window to look in the direction he was pointing.

“It really is Su Yuxin.”

“The sun must be rising from the west.”

“Maybe Su Yuxin has always been pretending?”

“It must be, a saint on the surface, but a vixen in the bed.”

As Su Yuxin and Ye Fan walked shoulder to shoulder along the commercial street, appearing very intimate, the four young masters all shared their opinions one after another.

“Who is that man?”

Almost simultaneously, all five young masters were very curious.

“Isn’t he the doctor who treated Su Yuxin’s illness?”

One of the young masters thought of something and said, “I heard that Su Feiyu had Gou Wei deliberately run over a doctor surnamed Ye who supposedly could cure Su Yuxin’s illness with his car.

But when Mr.

Su found out, he was so furious that not only did he cut ties with the Gou Family and had the police take Gou Wei away, he even sent Su Feiyu to the police station!”

“I heard the same thing from my old man.”

Another young master continued, “My old man also wondered why Su Hongyuan would do such a thing, especially since Su Feiyu was his chosen successor.”

“It must be a play to appease Su Yuxin and create a show with the Gou Family.

Just wait and see; those two will be able to get out before long.” The first young master to speak said.

“It’s true they can get out, but after all, it’s self-destruction within the family; probably, Mr.

Su is going to be angry enough to spit blood this time.”

The only young master wearing glasses among the five, with a sneer, said, “At the same time, I think that the other contenders in the Su Family won’t miss this opportunity to take advantage of the internal strife, especially the He Family!”

“That really makes things difficult for Su Yuxin.

If she were a man and appointed by old Mr.

Su as the successor, she would have had a chance in the battle against Young Master He.”

Another young master who was close to the future successor of the He Family, He Fenghua, couldn’t help but laugh, “If Young Master He makes his move now, he might just bag the beauty and the territory all in one go.”

With this remark, the remaining four young masters all agreed without objection.

Because…

they all knew that Su Feiyu, the successor of the Su Family, didn’t even qualify to carry the shoes for the leader of Hanghu’s young masters, He Fenghua!
