Chapter 351 Let's get this straight
"Lin Qing, explain yourself clearly. What have I done to you?"
Faced with Lin Zhu's 'questioning', Li Chenxu didn't even blink. He tilted his head slightly, his deep, unfathomable eyes staring intently at Lin Zhu.
Even when he's silent, he exudes enough pressure; now, this only makes Lin Zhu break out in a cold sweat.
Lin Zhu was clearly intimidated by Li Chenxu's aura. He seemed to want to say something, but his lips kept opening and closing, and in the end, he didn't say a word.
Mu Xiaoyu was truly impressed by Li Chenxu's composure at this moment, while she herself was getting a little anxious watching from the side.
"Sir! You've delegated most of my work to others these past few days. If I've really done something wrong, please tell me directly!"
I don't know how much time passed before Lin Zhu closed his eyes and blurted out everything in one breath.
He spoke somewhat urgently, but his words were clear enough for Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu to hear clearly.
It was supposed to be a very serious matter, but for some reason, Li Chenxu burst out laughing when he heard Lin Zhu's words. The way he looked at Lin Zhu was as if he were looking at a silly fool.
"Lin Qing, I think you're getting worse and worse. Don't you know what you've done these past few days? Let's not even talk about the tender and contract with the government. Just look at the things I asked you to do a while ago, what did you do? Have you even counted how many loopholes you've created? Now you come here asking me what you did wrong. Tell me, what exactly did you do wrong?"
Just as Lin Zhu had some understanding of Li Chenxu, how could Li Chenxu, a cautious person, not understand Lin Zhu after six or seven years? Before Lin Zhu came to ask Li Chenxu these questions today, Li Chenxu had already anticipated that, given Lin Zhu's personality, he would definitely not be able to hold back and would come to ask him.
And he had already begun to suspect Lin Zhu when he started investigating the mistakes Lin Zhu's subordinates had made during this period. Now, in the encrypted files on Li Chenxu's computer, there was a list of all the mistakes, big and small, that Lin Zhu had made over the past year.
However, these things are probably unnecessary; Assistant Lin is a smart man. Li Chenxu doesn't need to spell everything out; he'll stop short of revealing his thoughts. There are some things he understands.
As expected, as soon as Li Chenxu said those words, Assistant Lin's face turned deathly pale.
His face was pale as he stared blankly at Li Chenxu, opening his mouth as if to explain something, but in the end he didn't utter a single word.
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. Now, focus on doing your job well. As for the rest, we'll see how you perform in the future. Lin Qing, you've been with me for so many years, you should know my personality very well. I never keep idle people around me."
“I understand, sir.”
Lin Zhu lowered his eyes, not daring to look into Li Chenxu's eyes. When he spoke, his voice was even hoarse, making him look very pitiful.
Seeing this scene, Mu Xiaoyu shook her head without making a sound, and took the opportunity to say to Li Chenxu, "Have you finished talking? If you have, let's go. I'm hungry."
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu immediately stood up. When facing Mu Xiaoyu, he reverted to his gentle demeanor, his change of expression so swift that Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but marvel. However, with Assistant Lin present, Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't say anything in front of him.
After she and Li Chenxu got into the elevator, she tugged at Li Chenxu's sleeve and said, "You change your expression so fast, I think even Sichuan opera face-changing can't compare to you."
"I'll take that as a compliment."
At this moment, Li Chenxu had no sense of responsibility as the head of the family at all. His shameless behavior almost made Mu Xiaoyu unable to resist biting him again on the teeth marks on his face.
Mu Xiaoyu was really hungry, so after leaving the company, the two of them simply ordered some food at a restaurant near the company.
Both of them are exceptionally good-looking, and when they go out together, people often look at them. Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu are used to it.
But today, there were noticeably more people watching than usual.
Mu Xiaoyu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by these people. She subconsciously touched her face, and as a result, she touched the teeth marks on her face. Her expression instantly became very interesting.
She said, "How could everyone be looking at them? It's not that they're good-looking, it's clearly because of the teeth marks on their faces!"
There are still so many people in the restaurant now; countless people were watching them as they walked over.
Just thinking about that scene made Mu Xiaoyu feel utterly powerless.
She now fully understands what it means to lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot.
"Didn't you just say you were hungry? Why aren't you eating now?"
They were eating Chaoshan beef, but Li Chenxu barely ate any, spending all his time cooking beef for Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu's small bowl was almost full, but she barely touched her chopsticks.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, but looked at Li Chenxu with a mournful expression. After a while, she said, "I'm so angry I'm full, what's the point of eating?"
"Are you full of anger? Who made you angry?"
Li Chenxu looked extremely surprised, but the smile in his eyes betrayed his true feelings. Mu Xiaoyu was itching to see this, glared at Li Chenxu, and then silently ate her beef with her chopsticks.
She has completely given up now. She can't fight with Li Chenxu anymore, no matter who she fights with, otherwise she'll be devoured by him without leaving a trace!
"Okay, don't be angry. The teeth marks on your face will disappear in a while. Maybe they'll be gone after you finish eating."
"It can't be that fast."
Mu Xiaoyu muttered to herself, but she was indeed hungry and too lazy to say anything more, so she started eating in silence.
Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu had finally started eating seriously, Li Chenxu stopped saying anything.
Just as Li Chenxu said, after the two finished their meal, the teeth marks on Mu Xiaoyu's face faded considerably. Although they were still there, they were barely noticeable unless you looked closely.
"You're not allowed to bite me anymore. I can bite you, but you can't bite me!"
Mu Xiaoyu looked in the mirror and, seeing that the teeth marks on her face were not very clear, immediately said to Li Chenxu in a very domineering tone.
Li Chenxu went along with her. Mu Xiaoyu usually had a mature demeanor, but now she was quite adorable.
"Okay, okay, I promise you everything. From now on, if you say one thing, I won't say another. I absolutely won't do anything you forbid me from doing. Are you happy now?"
