The task of breaking up office romances

As night fell, many people in the Longquan Hotel couldn't sleep.

Chen Xiao was thinking about what he needed to do tomorrow.

Lin Yanran lay on the bed, her two small legs propped up, slowly swaying in mid-air, her mind wandering, but a smile played on her lips.

Not long after, Su Tang called.

Lin Yanran quickly picked up.

"Hello? Ms. Su?"

"Hmm, how's the boss's matter?"

"Everything's going smoothly, it's all good."

"Good, take good care of the boss, don't be lazy."

"Hehe, don't worry, Sister Su Tang."

Su Tang thought for a moment; before they moved offices, she had asked Chen Xiao how Lin Yanran was, and received a 'pretty good' answer.

"Yanran."

"Ah? What's wrong, Sister Su Tang."

Su Tang laughed, "You're alone with the boss... this is a rare opportunity, you know, seize it."

"......" Lin Yanran.

"I..."

Su Tang didn't give her time to hesitate, pressing, "Yanran, what kind of guy do you like?"

Lin Yanran's mind was in a tangle; she used to like handsome guys who sweated on the basketball court.

But after graduation, seeing her former male god grovel for a living, drunk all day, his beer belly gradually growing, living a life beyond his control.

Her romantic youthful dream was brutally shattered.

It wasn't until she started working at Teng Xiao Capital that she truly understood what it meant to be a man at the top of the pyramid.

He was confident and assertive, doing as he pleased, capable of influencing the destinies of those around him.

No matter what difficulties he faced, he confronted them with immense self-assurance.

Calm, uninhibited, profound...

Seeing that she couldn't answer, Su Tang smiled knowingly, leaving it at that.

"Alright, I've said enough, you think about it yourself."

After speaking, she hung up the phone.

Standing in the general manager's office of Teng Xiao Capital, Su Tang's lips curved slightly, making her exceptionally beautiful and charming.

However, her dark circles were quite noticeable, and her eyes were filled with red veins.

"Yanran, the important task of breaking the shackles of office romance... I'm entrusting it to you."

After saying that, she yawned and continued to study the blockchain and cryptocurrency knowledge Chen Xiao had assigned her.

......

Lin Yanran hung up the phone, indecisive.

Although the boss was great, he had too many women...

However, on second thought, it was precisely because he had many women that she might have a chance...

On this lingering night, the exquisite female subordinate in the small town Hotel finally knocked on the boss's door...

Chen Xiao looked at the shy Lin Yanran, puzzled, "It's the middle of the night, what's wrong?"

"Uh... I..."

The courage she had mustered in her room completely vanished the moment she reached the door.

Lin Yanran fidgeted, unable to form a complete sentence.

Under Chen Xiao's gaze, she felt immense pressure, finally saying, "I came to see if there's anything you need me to do."

Chen Xiao glanced at his phone, "It's 1:30 AM, what could there be? How about... you come warm my bed?"

Lin Yanran's small face instantly flushed crimson.

She lowered her head and whispered, "C-can I?"

"......" Chen Xiao.

He extended a finger and poked Lin Yanran's fair, tender forehead, saying, "What are you always thinking about in that little head of yours? Go back to sleep quickly, you're coming with me to buy a house tomorrow."

"Oh."

Lin Yanran was poked, causing her to step back two paces, and she pouted as she responded.

Then she walked back to her room, looking disappointed.

Chen Xiao grinned.

He, of course, understood what the little girl was thinking.

But women are women, and work is work.

If he wanted women, couldn't he have as many as he wanted?

But it's best not to mix too much personal emotion into work.

Unless...

He couldn't help himself.

......

However, Chen Xiao held back tonight.

Firstly, due to the environment, and secondly, he had things on his mind and wasn't in the mood.

That's why Lin Yanran escaped this time.

Early the next morning, Chen Xiao was woken up by Wang Li knocking on his door.

As expected, he couldn't sleep in when he was home.

Chen Xiao reluctantly got up and ate breakfast, accompanied by incessant nagging.

Although the Hotel was a bit old, the breakfast in the small town still tasted exactly as he remembered.

The grains grown in the black soil had an exceptionally mellow and rich flavor.

Chen Xiao drank two bowls of millet porridge and devoured five or six fresh meat buns before finally putting down his chopsticks, satisfied.

"Burp~"

"Let's go, to Nan Lan Mountain."

Wang Li asked, "Are you returning the car you rented...? How much does it cost a day?"

"It's fine, you see my dad hasn't recovered yet, and he needs the car for going back and forth."

"Needs what? I'm taking your dad back to our hometown today, it costs a lot of money every day in the city."

Chen Xiao was speechless, "Didn't I give you twenty million?"

Wang Li covered her pocket and said, "This twenty million is for you to get a wife, how can it be spent carelessly? No one, absolutely no one, is getting a single cent out of here."

"......" Chen Xiao.

"What if I give you another ten million?"

Wang Li nodded, "Good, hand it over."

Chen Xiao asked, "Then will you spend it?"

"No, I'll save it all for you. If your business fails, then this money will come in handy, and it won't delay you getting a wife."

"......" Chen Xiao.

"You really are my own mother! Who hopes their child fails?"

"Everything going smoothly and a successful career is certainly good, but I heard that doing business carries a lot of risk."

"Sigh, alright."

Although Wang Li was strong-willed, she couldn't completely control Chen Xiao.

A moment later, a group of people in three cars left the Hotel and headed towards Nan Lan Mountain.

The Nan Lan Mountain Ski Resort, despite being located in a small town, was definitely a provincial-level project.

All its infrastructure and facilities were extremely well-developed.

The widest roads and the highest construction standards in the entire Lan County were found here.

The villa area was located on the southern slope of Nan Lan Mountain, offering beautiful scenery and a pleasant environment.

At the foot of the mountain, the Lan River meandered.

Originally, this auspicious location was planned for a large, high-end public cemetery, but it was rejected by the higher-ups and converted into a ski and nature resort.

In later years, this ski resort attracted many tourists from across the country and even the world to gather here every winter.

Lan County also embarked on its path to poverty alleviation and prosperity because of this.

However, all of this was to happen several years later; at this time, although Nan Lan Mountain's infrastructure was complete, there wasn't even a soul in sight.

At the foot of the mountain, the ski-related Hotel and various living and entertainment facilities were basically completed.

Judging by their quality, they were built according to city-level standards, completely incomparable to the old buildings in the county town.

The cars drove up the mountain road and soon entered the villa area halfway up the mountain.

This place was simply a forest oxygen bar.

Exquisite villas were scattered amidst the lush greenery.

It was truly an excellent sanctuary for health and leisure.

The cars drove directly around the entire community.

Chen Xiao nodded to himself.

"Good place!"

The real estate company had already sent people to wait here.

In July, the city was unbearably hot, but here there was a hint of coolness.

Seeing three cars arrive, the salesperson's eyes widened.

He had initially thought it was just another "tourist" who had come out of curiosity.

He hadn't expected them to actually have the means!

Of course, he had no idea that all three cars Chen Xiao drove today were rented...
