After leaving, Qinglong walked and pondered, feeling increasingly that this job was quite risky.

After all, how could the son of Jiangcheng's richest man not have any precautions?

He pondered for a moment, then took out his phone and sent a message to Xuanwu, the second strongest of the four guardians:

"Xuanwu, the Dragon King has ordered you to return to the country immediately and eliminate Lin Ba, the son of Jiangcheng's richest man."

When Xuanwu, who was far away overseas, received this message, he was lying by the pool sunbathing.

He stared at the screen for a moment, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

He knew perfectly well that the Dragon King was still in the probationary period and had no right to use the power of the Dragon King's Palace.

This job, which is supposedly ordered by the Dragon King, is most likely a private job that the Azure Dragon took on himself, trying to drag others down with him.

"That Qinglong kid is shrewd; he always pushes out the dirty and tiring work. This time, he probably won't get a good job."

Xuanwu muttered something, then turned around and edited the message again, forwarding it verbatim to Baihu, the third-ranked of the four guardians.

"White Tiger, the Dragon King has ordered you to return to the country immediately and eliminate Lin Ba, the son of Jiangcheng's richest man."

Baihu didn't think that much about it.

After receiving the message, she glanced at it and began packing her things to prepare to leave.

While packing, I suddenly remembered that Zhuque had mentioned wanting to go back to China a few days ago, so I casually sent her a message:

"Suzaku, I'm going back to my country. Do you want to come with me?"

Zhuque replied very quickly:

"Okay, Sister White Tiger, wait for me, I'll be right there!"

......

Inside Liu Ruoyan's office.

Lin Ba leaned back in the leather executive chair without any hesitation, crossed his legs, and rested his fingers on the armrests.

A mocking smile appeared on his face:

"Tell me, Mr. Liu, where did you go wrong this time?"

Liu Ruoyan stood in front of the desk, completely bewildered.

She didn't know what she had done to offend the other party, which was why she invited Lin Ba over.

And how come Lin Ba, at such a young age, looks like a CEO?

This reminded her of the oppressive feeling she experienced when she was working her way up from the bottom at the Liu Group, being interrogated by the senior female colleague in her department.

Thinking of this, she tentatively spoke, her tone cautious:

"Mr. Kobayashi, this... I really don't understand. Our Liu Group shouldn't have offended you, right?"

Lin Ba grunted in response, feigning displeasure.

"Just because you haven't offended me doesn't mean you've done anything wrong!"

Liu Ruoyan: "..."

She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted.

Lin Ba was just playing her for a fool.

Normally, if someone dared to be so disrespectful in her office, she would have already coldly asked them to leave.

But the person in front of him was Lin Ba, the young master of the Lin family who could cut off all the Liu Group's lifelines with just a word.

and......

She had to admit that Lin Ba's face was indeed a little too good-looking, making it impossible for her to find a reason to be angry.

She took a soft breath and said gently:

"Then...Mr. Kobayashi, how can you atone for your sins?"

Lin Ba stroked his chin, thought for a moment as if he were seriously considering something, and then shrugged:

"I'm in a bad mood today. Please apologize."

Liu Ruoyan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

That's it? It's not a big deal.

She raised her hand to her chest, bowed deeply and earnestly, her tone sincere:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, it was my fault."

Lin Ba subconsciously replied:

"What did you do wrong?"

Liu Ruoyan: "..."

She straightened up and looked at Lin Ba's innocent face, momentarily at a loss for words.

At this moment, she was as helpless as a man!

At this moment, Lin Ba glanced down at his phone screen and saw that Xiao Bufan's location dot was gradually approaching.

He flipped his phone face down on the table, looked up at Liu Ruoyan across from him, and slowly lowered his gaze from her tense face.

Black stockings, high heels, and a bodycon skirt.

He suddenly curled the corners of his mouth into a smile:

"How about this, you dance for me. If I'm in a good mood, things might be easier to discuss."

Liu Ruoyan's face stiffened. She had never danced in front of a man before, and she didn't know how!

From elementary school to adulthood, she studied business management, financial analysis, strategic planning, and so on.

Every step they've taken over the years has been aimed at reaching the highest position in the Liu Group.

No one had ever taught her how to sway her hips and twist her waist in front of men.

She never felt she needed to learn this kind of thing.

Finally, she said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kobayashi, I can't dance."

Lin Ba's smile visibly faded, and his tone turned colder.

"Since Mr. Liu doesn't even have this much sincerity, then I see there's nothing more to discuss today. I'll be leaving now!"

As he spoke, he stood up, intending to leave.

Seeing that Lin Ba was about to leave without saying a word, Liu Ruoyan panicked.

She had to be very humble in the text message to get Lin Ba to agree to meet her this time.

If he just leaves like this, I'm afraid no one will even reply to my text messages if we try to meet again next time.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth. It's just dancing, she can learn it on the spot!

After all, she has always had good learning abilities; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to reach this position based on her own merits.

"Mr. Kobayashi, wait a minute!"

After she spoke up to persuade Lin Ba to stay, she unconsciously bit her lip.

"I...I'll jump."

Hearing the satisfactory answer, Lin Ba stopped, turned around, and sat back down in his seat.

Lin Ba opened Douyang Short Video, found a suggestive dance video in his favorites, and casually handed the phone to Liu Ruoyan.

"Let's do this one."

Liu Ruoyan leaned over suspiciously for a look, and before the action on the screen was even halfway through, her face had already turned bright red.

She gripped the edge of her phone, hesitated for a long while, and then spoke in a low voice:

"Mr. Kobayashi... isn't it a bit too subtle to start the dance by sticking out your tongue?"

Lin Ba waved his hand, looking completely unconcerned.

"What's so subtle about it? Don't talk nonsense."

Liu Ruoyan bit her lip, staring at the twisting and turning movements on the screen, but in the end, she still couldn't get over her own conscience.

She returned the phone, intending to refuse.

"Mr. Kobayashi, I'm sorry... I can't do this."

Lin Ba didn't answer the phone; instead, he wore a mocking expression.

"President Liu, you don't want the Liu Group to be ruined in your hands, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruoyan's face turned pale.

Damn it, they're threatening her again with the Liu Group's affairs, and she has no way to retaliate!

No, the Liu Group is Grandpa's life's work, it must not be ruined in her hands.

She closed her eyes, and finally gave in!

"Okay. I'll jump."

At the same time, Xiao Bufan arrived at the office door.

Seeing that the door was closed, he instinctively wanted to knock and rush in.

But then I thought, what if they really were talking about business?

If he barged in and ruined the atmosphere, wouldn't Liu Ruoyan give him an even worse attitude?

After thinking about it, he decided to observe first and listen to what was going on inside.

So Xiao Bufan pressed his ear against the doorway and listened carefully...
