"Honey, I was good just now, wasn't I?" In the elevator, Hao Jian asked Shu Ya with a sly grin plastered on his face."Not bad," Shu Ya replied, still with a stern face, unwilling to inflate this scoundrel's ego. But her heart was actually filled with joy at that moment. The reason was simple, because Hao Jian had made her proud. Thinking of how Hao Jian had made Zhao Ziliang swallow his words on the spot, she felt incredibly satisfied. Actually, Shu Ya had long wanted to give Zhao Ziliang a piece of her mind, but she didn't have the thick skin like Hao Jian, who could say anything and curse with the vilest words, she still cared about her image. Err... or rather, she wasn't as shameless as Hao Jian! But Shu Ya couldn't deny, Hao Jian cursing out loud had looked really cool. "What do you mean 'not bad'? It was pretty perfect! Look at you, you say you don't want it, but your body is very honest, smiling even more happily than me!" Hao Jian said with a lecherous laugh. Hao Jian's words made Shu Ya exasperated! This jerk, give him an inch and he'll take a mile! "Get lost, you scoundrel!" Shu Ya kicked at Hao Jian fiercely. Just as her foot was flying out, it was caught by Hao Jian, his face full of a smug smile: "Wife, don't get physical. Be careful or your husband won't be polite!" While saying this, Hao Jian's face was teasing, and he pinched her delicate ankle. "Ah... you… you big pervert, you scoundrel!" Shu Ya was so furious, she immediately grabbed Hao Jian's waist and pinched him hard! Yikes! Just then, as the two were in shock, the elevator doors suddenly opened! Following that, Hao Jian and Shu Ya saw someone standing at the elevator entrance. Xiao Qiang! Because she had an urgent document that needed Shu Ya's signature, Xiao Qiang had been waiting at Shu Ya's private elevator early in the morning. Seeing Shu Ya and Hao Jian together in the elevator, Xiao Qiang was initially stunned! And when she saw the ambiguous posture between Shu Ya and Hao Jian, her mind went blank! "You… you guys..." Xiao Qiang's eyes were wide open, her face full of astonishment! She couldn't imagine how Shu Ya would let her share an elevator, a privilege not even she had. And their posture... Seeing Xiao Qiang at the elevator entrance, the two quickly let go of each other, Shu Ya's pretty face suddenly turned red, and her expression became somewhat unnatural. Because it was her personal private elevator, nobody was supposed to ride with her, but this time she had brought Hao Jian, surely Xiao Qiang would become suspicious. Especially since there had been... But luckily, Shu Ya was quick-witted, and in her panic, she immediately turned her head, looked sternly at Hao Jian, and scolded loudly: "If I ever catch you sneaking into my elevator again, don't blame me for not being polite! This is the first and the last time!" Hao Jian froze, he hadn't quite caught on yet. "What are you staring at, did you hear what I said?" Shu Ya rebuked, her face deliberately showing disgust. "I'm sorry, President, I won't dare to get on your... elevator again!" Hao Jian thought this girl was so clever, she reacted right away. "Hmph!" Shu Ya snorted coldly, then looked at the still stunned Xiao Qiang: "Xiao Qiang, is there something you need?" Xiao Qiang finally came back to her senses, so it was just that Hao Jian had taken the elevator on his own and got caught by the president. She had thought Hao Jian and Shu Ya had some special relationship. Although still a bit suspicious, she didn't ask further! "Oh, president, here is an important document that needs your immediate signature." Xiao Qiang quickly passed a folder over. "Okay, I'll take a look at it first." Then Shu Ya took the folder and walked away without even glancing at Hao Jian, acting as if she didn't know him at all. As Shu Ya walked away, Xiao Qiang nudged Hao Jian's shoulder with her elbow and asked: "You're crazy, daring to take the CEO's private elevator and even trying to flirt with the CEO, you really have a death wish!" "I was just afraid of being late." Hao Jian explained, but thought to himself, who came up with this thing? A CEO's private elevator? Isn't that just artificially dividing people by rank? But what Hao Jian didn't know was that such a hierarchical system is necessary in the workplace, otherwise things would fall into chaos. "Even if you're late, you can't take that elevator. Let me tell you, don't think that just because the CEO is about our age, she's easy to get along with. She's very serious! And this time you've offended her, I can't help you, you're on your own." Xiao Qiang looked at Hao Jian with a gaze full of pity, as if she could see Hao Jian's bleak fate! "Alright, I'll remember next time." Hao Jian scratched his head, yet he was utterly baffled! What is going on here, why is everyone in the company so terrified of Shu Ya, as if she were a man-eater. Anyway, he didn't think that a woman who couldn't even dare to kill a cockroach could be that frightening. But what he hadn't realized was that not everyone was like him, maintaining such an awkward relationship with Shu Ya! And not everyone was like him, so shameless. Upon seeing that Hao Jian took it in, Xiao Qiang finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to him: "By the way, the CEO already told me earlier, when you're not busy, you should go to the logistics department and stay on standby." "Send me to the logistics department? Are there a lot of women there?" Hao Jian asked, somewhat confused. Xiao Qiang was almost choked with anger! Dammit, what does it matter how many women there are in the logistics department? You jerk! "Sending you to the logistics department is nothing special; it just involves picking up packages for the company and buying things for different departments." Xiao Qiang's face went green with frustration, wondering if there was anything other than lust in this guy's head. "Isn't that just running errands for people? That's so tiring, I'm not going... I'd rather die than go..." Hao Jian shook his head like a tambourine, running errands was like being a lackey, and he certainly didn't want to be a lackey.

Xiao Qiang blinked her eyes, a sly gleam in her gaze, and said: "You don't have a choice in this, it is the CEO's order." Hao Jian's eyes instantly squirted out a glint of jealousy! Mama mia, is this a bloody seduction scheme! Am I that kind of lascivious guy? Really, why didn't she say so earlier! "She should at least give me a reason, why on earth would she throw me into the logistics department?" Hao Jian was bemused. Last night, Shu Ya hadn't mentioned this to him at all. This was just too sudden. "Isn't that your own fault?" Xiao Qiang gave Hao Jian a disdainful glance, this guy really had no self-awareness. "How is it my fault? What's it got to do with me?" Hao Jian argued crudely. "Yesterday, you were in the office boasting and farting around with that colleague, even flirting with female colleagues. Several department heads called to complain about you. That's why the CEO had to reassign you to logistics, to keep you from wandering around the office and distracting other employees." Xiao Qiang spoke indignantly, though Hao Jian was a good person, sometimes he was just too cheeky and too much of a troublemaker. "Bullshit, what flirting with female colleagues? Those female colleagues were crying and begging me to tell them dirty jokes. As a warm-hearted man, how could I refuse?" Hao Jian was annoyed by Xiao Qiang's portrayal of him as some kind of nuisance, muttering to himself: "Damn it, it seems honest people really get the short end of the stick..." Goddamn, where's his shame. Xiao Qiang covered her face, not even knowing what to say anymore. "Anyway, you better head to logistics quickly, otherwise the CEO will get mad." Xiao Qiang said to Hao Jian, then checked her watch: "I have other things to handle, so I'm going ahead." Seeing this, Hao Jian could only helplessly make his way to the logistics department! Upon arriving at the logistics department, he found it was just a small room, where mops, brooms, buckets, ladders, and the like were all crammed together, making the already small room feel even smaller. At one end of the room, there was a desk with a telephone on it, clearly for taking calls from other departments. Hao Jian plunked himself down on a wooden stool, legs crossed and smoking, a picture of misery! Damn it, where's the trust between people, can't we just have fun anymore!
