Chapter 20 - A Boring Day Ends and Taken Away by Two Beauties

After the short introduction and brief interaction, everyone gradually returned to their own work.

The lively atmosphere inside the meeting room quickly faded.

Even though Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing were a little reluctant to leave, they still had no choice but to go back. They clearly wanted to spend more time with Shen Yueran, but this was Huo Corporation.

No one dared to slack off here.

If anyone was found wasting time during working hours, the consequences would be severe.

So in the end, the two women could only smile at Shen Yueran, say a few more words to her, and then leave with the others.

Soon, the meeting room emptied out.

Not long after, Shen Yueran returned to her office.

She sat alone behind the desk, resting her chin on one hand, and looked around the spacious room once again.

The office was large, clean, and quiet.

Too quiet.

As time slowly passed, Shen Yueran felt more and more bored.

This kind of place was really not suited for her.

She had only been here for half a day, yet she already felt like the time was moving painfully slowly.

Sitting alone inside the office with nothing much to do, Shen Yueran almost looked a little sad from boredom.

If this continued, she felt she might really fall asleep right there.

At that moment, the office door was knocked on from outside.

Soon, Liang Zhen walked in together with Han Rui.

The two of them had come to report to her about the allocation of members and the general arrangements for the cooperation between Mingxiao Security and Huo Corporation.

Han Rui explained the situation in a steady tone, while Liang Zhen stood at the side and added a few details from time to time.

Shen Yueran listened with one ear while leaning back in her chair.

The matter itself was not complicated.

The members who came with her had already been arranged properly and were beginning to coordinate with the company's existing security personnel.

Everything was going according to plan.

After hearing the report, Shen Yueran gave a small nod.

"Alright."

Liang Zhen glanced at her sitting there alone in the office, looking completely listless, and silently thought in his heart—

In a place like this, I only hope no one comes looking for trouble with her.

Otherwise, once trouble came to the door, it would definitely not end peacefully.

After all, he knew very well what kind of person his young leader really was.

Han Rui and Liang Zhen soon finished their report and left.

The office became quiet once again.

Shen Yueran leaned back in her chair and slowly let out a breath.

Her first day at work was about to end peacefully.

This thought finally made her mood improve a little.

At least nothing troublesome had happened today.

That was already not bad.

Thinking of this, Shen Yueran's body relaxed slightly.

Then, almost immediately, another thought rose in her mind.

Tonight, she could finally let loose a little.

The image of a bottle of 711 whiskey instantly appeared in her head.

Just thinking about it made her feel much happier.

She even began seriously planning her evening.

As Shen Yueran sat there and stared at the wall above her head, thinking very seriously about her plans for the evening, the office door suddenly opened.

She turned her head.

Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing walked in together.

The moment the two women entered, the quiet office seemed to become much more lively.

Shen Yueran raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at them.

Lin Xueyao smiled brightly and said, "Yueran, we decided to go for a party today."

Su Wanqing quickly continued, "Since it's your first day here, we all wanted to invite you."

Lin Xueyao nodded repeatedly. "You should come. I promise you'll have a good time."

The two of them had already started treating Shen Yueran like a younger sister after only half a day.

Not only because Shen Yueran was beautiful and easy to talk to, but also because in a department full of men, it was rare to meet another woman they genuinely liked at first sight.

So after work ended, the first thing they thought of was inviting her along.

Shen Yueran looked at the two of them standing there.

After sitting in the same place for half a day and nearly dying of boredom, she really did want to go out.

A faint smile appeared on her face.

She slowly stood up from her chair and walked toward them.

Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing watched her approach.

Before the two of them could react, Shen Yueran lifted her hands and placed one hand on each of their shoulders.

Then she pulled them both a little closer.

The distance between the three of them instantly shrank.

Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing's eyes widened slightly.

Shen Yueran looked at them, then suddenly winked.

"Since two beauties are asking me personally," she said with a smile, "how can I refuse?"

The moment those words fell, both Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing felt their faces heat up.

Their cheeks quickly turned a little red.

It was not as though no one had ever praised them before.

But when it came from Shen Yueran, the feeling was completely different.

Her style, her mannerisms, her natural-born charisma—

Everything about her was deeply attractive.

And on top of that, she had a beauty that appealed to both men and women.

Even though the two of them were already drawn to her, they still felt that getting too close to her was strangely dangerous.

This woman was simply too charming.

Lin Xueyao tried to keep a straight face, but the smile on her lips could not be hidden.

Su Wanqing also bit her lip lightly, clearly embarrassed.

Seeing the reactions of the two women, Shen Yueran's smile deepened slightly.

Then, without removing her hands from their shoulders, she casually walked forward with the two of them.

She stood in the center, with Lin Xueyao on one side and Su Wanqing on the other.

The picture looked extremely eye-catching.

As they walked, Shen Yueran lowered her head slightly and said a few sweet words near their ears from time to time.

Each sentence made the two women blush even more.

Sometimes they covered their mouths and giggled softly.

Sometimes they looked at Shen Yueran helplessly, as if they did not know what to do with her teasing.

The atmosphere around the three of them was unusually cheerful.

However, this scene did not go unnoticed.

From the office on the other side, a pair of cold eyes was quietly watching everything.

Huo Chengye stood there and looked through the glass.

His expression was cold and unreadable.

He watched Shen Yueran walking in the center with one arm around Lin Xueyao's shoulder and the other around Su Wanqing's, speaking sweetly to them and making them blush and laugh.

The scene outside was lively and relaxed.

The atmosphere in his office, however, instantly became much colder.

Huo Chengye's gaze darkened as he looked at the three figures walking away together.

His expression remained calm, but the chill in his eyes became even clearer.

Outside, Shen Yueran did not seem to notice anything.

She was still walking lazily between Lin Xueyao and Su Wanqing, looking perfectly at ease, as if she had already blended into the place in just one day.

The two women beside her were still blushing and laughing because of her words.

And like that, under someone's cold gaze, Shen Yueran left the office floor together with the two of them.
