Chapter 23 - 15: Escaped from the Mental Hospital

Chapter 23: Chapter 15: Escaped from the Mental HospitalSu’s Great Enterprise truly lives up to its reputation as the leading company in the Wancheng Mall, not only is Yunhai Mansion a marvel to behold with its breathtaking interior design, but even the decor inside and the reception staff are all exceptionally attractive. The reception area is luxuriously extravagant, and all the receptionists are beauties, with graceful figures and elegant faces, wearing professional smiles. Even the security guards patrolling the hallways are handsome young men, exuding masculine vigor and strength. However, just as Lin Mu was continuously marveling at all the merits of Yunhai, the dark side of Yunhai was already emerging, manifesting right in front of Lin Mu in a dramatic scene. The man and woman walking in front of Lin Mu were quite a sight. The man was portly and stout, sporting a big belly, clearly one of those upper-level managers who frequently skimmed perks. The woman was seductive, evidently his secretary or, more accurately, his mistress. The woman was wearing a pair of high heels, I swear, they appeared to be at least twenty centimeters high, which seemed to be compensating for her innate height deficiency. But the heels were too high, causing her to have trouble walking, especially on the high-gloss floors of Yunhai Mansion. Her way of walking was remarkably enticing, exceedingly alluring, as if she wasn’t walking but strutting on a catwalk, her feet following a straight line, with her hips swaying, her waist twisting left and right, full of charm like a Persian cat imitating a human’s walk. "President Liu, the floor is so slippery!" The seductive woman seemed to feel not eye-catching enough, so she wanted to make a sensation to highlight her presence, just like the celebrity Liu Xiaoqing often stirs up some tabloid news! "Then be careful, little darling!" The man named President Liu affectionately wrapped his arm around her waist, "Oh, you’re so annoying, so many people are watching!" seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The seductive woman called out coquettishly, causing Lin Mu to get goosebumps all over, but to the fat President Liu, the sound was even more enticing than a cat in heat. "Oh no, oh no, the floor is too slippery; I’m going to fall..." she said, ignoring President Liu’s support, slowly collapsing to the floor, sobbing weakly and delicately, attracting the attention of people around her who began to crowd around. Seeing the crowd grow, the seductive woman acted even more dramatically, her beautiful legs in black stockings becoming a spectacle on the floor, with her enormous bosom heaving, blatantly showing off the advantage of her G-cup! Seeing the situation, the fat President Liu knew that he couldn’t maintain the scene without showing some authority, so he shouted, "Cleaner, cleaner, come over here!" A cleaning lady hurried over nervously, "President Liu, what do you need?" "What’s the matter?" President Liu roared angrily, "Look for yourself, there’s water all over the floor causing Miss Wang to fall; this is a serious dereliction of duty!" "There’s no water here?" The cleaning lady checked the floor carefully and confirmed that there was no problem. "You still argue?" A cleaner daring to defy him, that’s unheard of. President Liu’s face turned crimson with anger, "Outrageous, outrageous, a mere cleaner dares to contradict leadership; I say there’s water, so there is. Also, your bonus for this month is entirely deducted!" "Please, President Liu, spare me, there is water, indeed there is water, I’ll clean it up, just please don’t deduct my bonus, my husband is sick, and my child needs tuition fees..." the cleaning lady was almost in tears, "Too late, who taught you to defy leadership; if you say another word, I’ll deduct your entire month’s salary..." "President Liu...please..." the lady tearfully pleaded, "I’ll clean it up, I’ll wipe it clean, isn’t that enough? Please don’t deduct my salary..." "Then take off your top and use it to wipe the entire area clean!" Then the fat President Liu flaunted his power, shouting at everyone behind him, "None of you should pass through here; wait until the cleaner has tidied up the floor before proceeding!" This fat man was hateful; it was bad enough that he deliberately made things difficult for a subordinate, but to actually demand she remove her clothes to clean the floor was simply an insult to her dignity! Lin Mu was infuriated, to the point that he couldn’t endure it any longer! However, he wasn’t part of Yunhai Mansion, and wanting to intervene was easier said than done! But since that fat man was shouting for others not to pass, Lin Mu felt compelled to go ahead! With a slightly mischievous smile on his lips, Lin Mu nonchalantly, arrogantly walked right past the fat man! It was like deliberately going against him; Fat President Liu, after all, was the senior manager of the Human Resources Department, a top figure within an independent department, how could he tolerate an insignificant nobody showing off in front of him! "You, step back! Can’t you see everyone else is waiting over there?" the fat man shouted angrily, "Otherwise I’ll make sure you can’t survive in Yunhai!" Hearing this, Lin Mu thought, dammit, what an arrogant tone, if I didn’t know in advance who Sophie is, I’d surely think you were the President of Su’s Great Enterprise! Unfortunately, Lin Mu wasn’t an employee of Su’s Great Enterprise, so he wasn’t worried about whether he could make a living there! Thus, he calmly walked forward. "Kid, if you don’t stop now, you’re going to regret it!" The fat guy, enraged, lunged forward trying to grab Lin Mu’s shoulder. He wanted to publicly embarrass this clueless kid, to make an example, and to use his brute power to dominate, believing this would earn him face in front of beauties, showcasing his manly valor and heroic nature, hoping the beauty would have more sexual fantasies about him in bed... Unfortunately, the one who was going to regret it was himself, because he was completely mistaken. If he had known he was facing the toughest and mightiest Special Forces King from the North African Grassland, he would have the urge to cripple his own presumptuous hand! Smack, a beautiful shoulder throw, like a dead pig, grabbed by Lin Mu and slung over his shoulder, then tossed out following a perfect parabolic trajectory. Amidst the astonished silence of the onlookers, Lin Mu, with an indifferent expression, shrugged and walked deeper into the Su Group’s lobby. The flamboyant woman was shocked, clearly not expecting anyone in the company to dare hit their big manager. She struggled to help him up, only to find that this over two-hundred-pound hulk was not something her petite frame could handle. Lin Mu entered the depths of the lobby alone, surveyed his surroundings, and couldn’t help but click his tongue quietly. The receptionists and security guards were all skilled practitioners, and although they were discreet, these well-trained special forces soldiers had many differences in their Essence, Qi, and Spirit compared to ordinary people, which was clear at a glance. "Hello sir, may I ask what business you have here?" The beautiful receptionist asked politely through the glass window, with a professional smile, gesturing slightly to the various service signs on the front desk behind her. "Uh, I’m looking for someone!" "May I ask who you are looking for? Do you have their direct line?" The receptionist continued to smile, "I’m looking for Sophie!" "Ah?" Although the receptionists were all well-trained and used to big scenes, upon seeing this average-looking guy with a rustic aura and slightly cheap attire, he didn’t seem like he belonged to the upper class. How could he possibly have a close relationship with President Su, even calling her by name as if they had a very intimate relationship! After all, being highly competent receptionists, they were momentarily surprised but quickly regained their composure, "Sir, do you have an appointment with the president?" "What? Do I need an appointment to see my playful wife?" "What playful wife?" The receptionist was again at a loss, finding this guy increasingly incomprehensible! As they spoke, he went off-topic. Could it be that Wancheng Mental Hospital forgot to lock its doors today? "Oh, nothing. Where is Sophie? I’ll find her myself!" Uh, alright, he doesn’t even know where the person he’s looking for is! The receptionist finally understood; it was time to call the city’s mental hospital! "Hmm, the president is working on the ninety-ninth floor—everyone knows that!" The receptionist quickly responded, worried that if she didn’t, this lunatic might rush in and punch her out! But before calling the mental hospital, she hurriedly called the president’s office, "Hello, connect me to Xiaowan’s assistant, there’s a man acting abnormally who went up to the ninety-ninth floor..." Lin Mu arrived at the elevator area, finding two elevators; one was crowded with people, the other one was completely empty. Huh, these people are really strange. Is the elevator broken? They’re all crowding into the full one despite an available one. He pressed the button, the doors opened, it wasn’t broken, no danger or warning signs, looks like he got lucky! Hehe, never mind about that! He just squeezed into the empty elevator, pressed the up button, and as the doors closed, he suddenly noticed the astonished looks from those outside. Hmm, Lin Mu was a bit puzzled too, did he have flowers on his face? Or was something off? Why did they all look at him as if they had seen a beast? Honestly, the elevator in Yunhai Mansion was of really good quality, you didn’t feel dizzy at all riding it, definitely way better than other elevators! Soon, he arrived at the ninety-ninth floor, finding the entire floor empty. There were two signs at the doors, one for the HR department and the other for the president’s office. He knocked, but there was no response. Could they be sleeping during work hours? Impossible, they must have all gone out for karaoke, or, oh, right, Lin Mu tapped his head, they’re in a meeting! Lin Mu could only stand in the outer guest room waiting, but after more than half an hour, still no one came out. Dizzy, could they all have gone out for karaoke?
