After Su Youchuan finished speaking, no one responded for a moment. The few people present all looked at Shang Shujue, wondering how he would answer, and no one dared to say a word.
Shang Shujue moved the lollipop from her left cheek to her right, chuckled unconsciously, and looked up to meet Su Youchuan's gaze. Her eyes were calm as still water, and Su Youchuan's words did not stir up the slightest ripple.
"What? Is our Grand CEO Su trying to get a formal title from me? Well, you're too late. I just threw my trash into the recycling center not long ago."
"I don't collect garbage here anymore. If you want it recycled, I can call a garbage truck to take you to the incineration plant."
"Puff..."
Shang Shujue, with his silver tongue, uttered these words so casually that Su Youchuan's face turned green with anger. Lin Yuyan, standing beside him, couldn't help but laugh out loud, but after being glanced at by Su Youchuan, she instantly suppressed her laughter and turned her head to look elsewhere.
Yu Yang and Bai Zhiyi knew that Shang Shujue was good at cursing, but they didn't expect him to directly confront them at this moment. They were stunned for a while before they reacted and turned their heads to look elsewhere.
They were all trying their best to control their expressions, literally thinking through all the worst days of their lives, just to keep from laughing out loud. Pfft! Su Youchuan is just trash in the bud.
"Heh, how come I never realized you were so quick-witted? What you said is truly infuriating."
Su Youchuan narrowed his eyes slightly, maintaining a gentle smile on his face, but the fingers that were pinching the jade ring seemed to want to break it off to vent his anger.
"Were you blind and deaf before? What would you know? Stop laughing, your laugh is so fake, don't your family think you're being hypocritical?"
" Shang Shujue, you!"
Shang Shujue effortlessly picked up on Su Youchuan's words, almost making Su Youchuan, the "imposter," swear. But for some reason, Su Youchuan held back, only frowning slightly as if he had been offended.
"Hey! Don't talk to me yet, because I can't understand you. To other people, it's a really stupid thing for me to argue with a pig."
" Shang Shujue, who are you calling a pig?!"
"Who should say what is right? Do I need to teach you?"
This time, Su Youchuan's face turned red with anger, and his fists clenched. Shang Shujue, on the other hand, remained calm and composed, sitting on the sofa with a carefree and happy smile. Bai Zhiyi and Yu Yang, who were listening to his outburst, were both shocked and excited.
"Oh! Look at you, getting impatient again? A bad temper hurts your liver and kidneys. You're ruining your health, leaving your little darlings all alone..."
"Squeak--"
Su Youchuan was so angry that he suddenly stood up from the sofa, his knee slamming into the coffee table, causing the ornaments and other items on the table to shake three times.
The moment he moved, Lin Yuyan stood up. He had witnessed just how sharp Shang Shujue's tongue was; he feared he couldn't handle a man like that.
Yu Yang and Bai Zhiyi tried to shield Shang Shujue behind them, but he blocked them with both hands, leaned back lazily on the sofa, chewed up a lollipop, took out the stick, and continued firing.
"Hey! What are you doing? Trying to hit me? You'd better think carefully, there are security cameras in the office."
After saying this, Shang Shujue raised an eyebrow slightly, casually pointed the finger holding the lollipop stick in the direction of the surveillance camera, and smiled wildly and arrogantly, his eyes bright and cheerful.
"If you punch me like that, I'll blackmail you until you're broke. You know I have some connections."
Shang Shujue had no intention of letting Su Youchuan off the hook. With a faint smile, she utterly humiliated him, leaving him breathless and with nowhere to vent his anger, effectively driving him to despair.
Yu Yang felt incredibly satisfied. He had finally vented all the frustration he had just felt. Shang Shujue's mouth was practically his mouth's substitute; he had thoroughly enjoyed hurling insults at him.
Bai Zhiyi was listening nearby, was also enjoying the conversation and really wanted to laugh, but he was holding it in with great difficulty. So when Su Youchuan got so angry that he was really going to disregard Shang Shujue's backing and was about to take action, he quickly stood up to stop him, Yu Yang also came to his senses and followed suit.
" Brother Jue, alright, alright, that's enough. Let's keep things peaceful and make money, right? President Su hasn't said anything yet."
" President Su, please don't be angry. Young Master Shang has always had this temper, and I usually can't say anything. Please bear with him and let's talk about business first."
Seeing the three people opposite him singing and acting in unison, Su Youchuan understood everything. He suddenly took a deep breath, smiled, and sat down again.
" Shang Shujue, you don't need to try to get my attention like this. I absolutely won't fall for your manipulative tactics. But since you're trying so hard, if you add me back, I wouldn't mind giving it a try."
Su Youchuan's words silenced the four people, who all stared at him with incredulous expressions, especially Lin Yuyan, being young, made no attempt to hide her disbelief.
Su Youchuan, where's your shame? Don't you care? ∑(❍ฺд❍ฺlll)
"If you're shameless, then go ahead and donate. Don't come here and disgust me. Just looking at you makes me itch. You're like a toad trying to eat swan meat. Get lost, you idiot!"
Shang Shujue immediately moved three meters away from the elderly man on the subway who was looking at his phone, almost out of the office. Su Youchuan's smile froze on his face again when he saw his reaction.
[Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Is Su Youchuan out of his mind? I've insulted him like this, and he still wants to be with me? Damn! This lunatic, his brain is definitely not working properly! Terrifying! Terrifying! Terrifying! So terrifying?! ૮₍ɵ̷ɵ̷̥̥᷅₎ა]
Shang Shujue's thoughts suddenly appeared, and the people outside the office who couldn't hear anything before suddenly heard the contents of these thoughts, causing an uproar.
"Holy crap! The battle inside is intense! But what's going on here? Why is Su Youchuan suddenly going to be with Brother Jue? Damn! How can he be so pathetic?"
"Is this guy a masochist? •̩̩̩̩ᯅ•̩̩̩ He just likes to torture people, the kind of person who treats them badly? Ugh~ I can't stand it, I'm getting goosebumps all over."
"Holy crap! Su Youchuan is far from being human, but very close to being a god! Brother Jue's butt is in danger! Bai Zhiyi is still inside too! This guy is disgusting."
"Alas! Is someone who is far from humanity and close to God truly a divine being?"
"Yes, he's mentally unstable, his brain isn't working properly."
While everyone was discussing this, Song Yanqing, who had been ordered to stay in his room, suddenly appeared at the office door and entered under the watchful eyes of Zhang Zhichen and the others.
The door suddenly opened, and everyone looked over. They all paused when they saw Song Yanqing. Su Youchuan unconsciously adjusted his posture, and Lin Yuyan immediately sat up straight.
Who is Song Yanqing? Anyone with a bit of background in the industry has been warned by their elders that this is someone you shouldn't mess with. Even though Lin Yuyan grew up abroad, she knew about him and the Songhui Aristocratic Family behind him. Right now, she was shocked to death.
Song Yanqing glanced at Su Youchuan and Lin Yuyan beside him, then looked away and focused his gaze on Shang Shujue before walking over.
"I saw it was raining outside and came over to bring you your coat. What kind of work are you talking about? It's been half an hour, are you still not done?"
Song Yanqing draped his coat over Shang Shujue's shoulders and casually put his arm around his shoulder. His movements were natural and graceful, without the slightest hint of awkwardness or unease, as if they had known each other for many years.
"Oh~ I was so busy arguing with him that I forgot to ask him what he was doing here? Let's get this over with quickly. I'm not cold now, take this coat."
As soon as Shang Shujue finished speaking, she stuffed her coat into Song Yanqing's hands, but did not refuse his arm around her shoulder. She turned her head and looked up in Su Youchuan's direction, raising her eyebrows slightly.
"Hey! What exactly did you come here for today?"
Su Youchuan: "..."
