Villain: He humiliated the protagonist's sister, but she fell in love with him.

Liu Ruoyan ignored Xiao Bufan and closed the office door.

I casually put the chicken soup aside, intending to have the cleaning staff throw it away later.

After all, Lin Ba hadn't replied to her messages for a long time, so she couldn't even eat, let alone offer any inspirational quotes.

"Sigh... I just don't know where Mr. Lin lives, otherwise I would just go to his doorstep and wait for him."

She had considered going directly to the Lin Group to find someone, but she had specifically asked Manager Chen about it earlier.

The other party replied very simply: Lin Ba is not currently with the Lin Group.

There was nothing she could do but give up.

So she switched to quietly fiddling with her phone, finding new ways to "harass" Lin Ba...

Downstairs at the Liu Group building.

When Qinglong saw Xiao Bufan come down, he went over to him.

"Dragon King, how did it go? Was everything alright?"

Xiao Bufan's lips curled into a confident smile:

"Of course, your sister-in-law accepted the chicken soup without hesitation, and she was especially touched!"

"real?"

Qinglong blurted it out subconsciously, his tone tinged with suspicion.

He knew very well that in his intelligence network, the couple's relationship was basically just a formality.

Forget about chicken soup, Xiao Bufan probably wouldn't even get a hot meal at the Liu family's place.

He even started to wonder if Xiao Bufan had never actually met him and had simply poured out the chicken soup halfway through...

Xiao Bufan caught a glimpse of Qinglong's suspicious expression, and his face darkened slightly.

"Azure Dragon, you don't believe me?"

"No, no!"

Qinglong hurriedly waved his hand, his face showing fear.

Seeing the other party's respectful attitude, Xiao Bufan regained his confident expression and even started to boast.

"With a face like mine right here, charming countless young girls is a piece of cake, isn't it? No matter how cold your sister-in-law is, she's still a woman after all. Getting her under my thumb is a piece of cake."

"Pfft!"

Xiao Bufan raised an eyebrow, his sharp gaze fixed on Qinglong:

"What are you laughing at?"

Qinglong reacted extremely quickly, immediately kneeling on one knee and bowing his head sincerely:

"I was so overwhelmed by the Dragon King's imposing presence that I choked on my saliva and lost my composure."

Xiao Bufan stared at him for two seconds, and seeing that he didn't seem to be faking it, he withdrew his gaze with satisfaction.

"You know that much is good!"

Then, as if he had just thought of something, a wicked smile crept onto his lips:

"By the way, you might not know this since you just returned to China, but AI in China is really impressive now."

"If you don't believe me, I'll have AI prove my handsome looks to you."

As he spoke, he took out his phone, opened Doubao (a mobile app), pointed it at himself, snapped a selfie, and then slowly said while holding down the voice button:

"Hey kid, look at me, how am I supposed to woo a girl?"

After saying that, he raised an eyebrow at Qinglong and said with a confident expression:

"Just wait, when Doubao opens his mouth, I guarantee every word he says will be praising how handsome I am."

Seeing that Xiao Bufan spoke with such conviction, Qinglong also felt a sense of anticipation.

soon!

Doubao provided the answer.

"Rape is a serious criminal offense and absolutely must not be committed! According to the Criminal Law..."

Hearing Doubao's answer, Xiao Bufan and Qinglong fell silent.

Because Doubao's answer was accompanied by audio, the sound attracted the attention of everyone around him as soon as it was played aloud.

"What the heck, why is this guy asking me all this? Could it be...?"

"I recognize him. That lunatic who cooked noodles on the highway last time. Is he going to have another fit of madness and commit another crime?"

"This looks like President Liu's husband! I never imagined he was such a pervert behind the scenes!"

"I really feel sorry for President Liu, having such an idiot as her!"

"By the way, I heard that the two of them don't actually have a marital relationship; they just got a marriage certificate."

"..."

Xiao Bufan listened to the mocking remarks of those around him and showed disdain.

"Azure Dragon, do you see? These people are just jealous of my good looks and the fact that I am Liu Ruoyan's husband."

Azure Dragon: "..."

Then, Xiao Bufan suddenly remembered something, and his expression became serious.

"By the way, Qinglong, could you check if the Liu Group has encountered any difficulties recently? I'll give you an hour!"

Upon hearing this, Qinglong once again knelt on one knee with a deft gesture, bowing his head and clasping his hands in a fist salute:

"Understood."

Upon seeing this, the crowd burst into laughter once again, even wondering if the two of them had some kind of mental illness.

But Xiao Bufan seemed to be used to such looks. He turned around without changing his expression, his flip-flops clicking on the ground as he strode towards the parking lot.

Qinglong rose and followed behind him, his steps steady, his eyes fixed straight ahead...

But the two had only taken a few steps when a gasp came from behind them:

"Holy crap! Speak of the devil, and he appears! President Liu is here!"

"This is so beautiful... If I could live off President Liu, I'd be willing to give up ten years of my life."

"Wake up, bro, you don't even qualify to queue up for a number."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Liu, you didn't come down here because of that crazy guy in flip-flops, did you?"

"..."

Xiao Bufan hadn't gone far when those few words of discussion drifted into his ears, and he couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

He glanced back and, sure enough, saw Liu Ruoyan walking out of the main entrance of the building.

He was overjoyed; it was worth getting up so early to cook this pot of chicken soup!

Thinking of this, he left Qinglong behind and quickly went to meet him, a warm smile plastered on his face:

"Ruo... no, Mr. Liu! Did you come down here specifically to see me? Did you think the chicken soup I brought was pretty good? If you like it, I can make you some every day from now on..."

But before he could finish speaking, Liu Ruoyan turned her head away and looked at him with disgust.

Why haven't you left yet?

She didn't go downstairs for Xiao Bufan, of course.

Just now, Lin Ba finally finished exercising. After taking a shower, he picked up his phone to watch some short videos.

At this moment, he also noticed several missed calls, as well as messages from Liu Ruoyan.

"Perfect timing, I'll stop by Liu Ruoyan on my way back to school."

Having made up his mind, Lin Ba sent a message, then stepped on the gas and drove towards the Liu Group...

At the same time, Liu Ruoyan received a reply from Lin Ba.

She immediately put down what she was doing and came down to wait for him herself.

Xiao Bufan stood there, stunned, his mind still reeling.

If Liu Ruoyan came down here for him, who else could it be for?

But before he could ask a question...

A black Maybach slowly drove in from outside the gate, its engine low and its body gleaming, exuding a silent sense of oppression.

"Beep!"

A short, sharp horn blared behind Xiao Bufan.

He instinctively stepped aside, trying to avoid it.

Strangely, after he dodged, the Maybach stopped moving, as if it were deliberately toying with him.

The car door opened, and Lin Ba stepped out.

Liu Ruoyan's gaze locked onto the young man almost instantly.

She was much younger than she had imagined; she looked like she was still in college.

And he's so handsome!

Before she could even react with surprise, she quickly stepped forward, bowed slightly, and extended her hand.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Liu Ruoyan. Welcome to the Liu Group."
