513: I get scared when I'm threatened.

“Haha, this is really interesting. It’s my first time seeing a Streamer dare to show such an attitude in front of a President.

I want to see if she really has that much capability.”

“Xiao Li, go tell Feng Kexin that President Xu is here and she should touch up her makeup later.” At this moment, Dou Shan said to her assistant.

Xiao Li immediately went to find Feng Kexin, while Xu Lian looked at the live stream room with interest.

The room was filled with plush toys and various cute decorations, looking like a “Sweetheart Streamer Room.” Xu Lian thought to himself as he looked around, it’s really hard to understand why people genuinely enjoy watching such a pretty face act spoiled.

Suddenly, there was a loud “slap” that was particularly jarring in the quiet room.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and it turned out to be Dou Shan’s assistant, Xiao Li, who had been slapped by Feng Kexin.

“Didn’t I say I’m in the middle of putting on makeup? Why do you insist on me stopping to see that President Xu? Are you trying to make me look bad on camera so someone else can steal my popularity?”

The more she spoke, the angrier she got. Still not satisfied, she raised her hand again, preparing to slap Xiao Li once more.

But before the slap could land, it was firmly caught by someone.

The person who intervened was none other than Xu Lian, who had just been sneering from the side.

“Don’t be so ruthless. We’re all just employees.

Do you really think you can just walk all over everyone here?” Xu Lian said, his tone calm but unyielding.

His voice was rich and magnetic, and for a moment, the entire room fell silent.

Feng Kexin looked at the suddenly appearing Xu Lian, and his handsome appearance and unique aura made her heart flutter.

But when he stopped her from acting, although his voice was pleasant, his words were piercing.

She had always had a smooth sailing in the Streamer circle since she was young, getting whatever she wanted. How could she tolerate such disrespect? In an instant, her initial good impression of Xu Lian vanished, plummeting into deeply negative territory.

“Who are you? Let go! Believe it or not, I’ll report you for sexual harassment!”

Xu Lian frowned upon hearing this, but eventually let go of her hand.

Seeing him compromise, Feng Kexin’s mind became active again, and she secretly thought, “Hmph, he looks pretty formidable, but he backed down with just a threat.

I only said a couple of words, I didn’t even use my big moves, and he already didn’t dare to move.

What a weakling.”

Just as she was still feeling smug, a sharp pain suddenly shot through her arm. She raised her arm to look, and five purplish-red handprints were clearly visible on her fair arm.

“Why did you do this to me? How am I going to stream later? Oh my god, what about my popularity! You compensate me!” Seeing the marks on her arm, she became furious, like a madwoman, and casually picked up nearby objects to throw at Xu Lian.

At this moment, Dou Shan immediately rushed in front of Xu Lian, shielding him from the flying bottles and cans.

Xu Lian hadn't expected Feng Kexin to actually dare to strike, throwing things at him without any hesitation, not even fearing the company President present.

Seeing that she wouldn't stop and was about to pick up even larger objects to throw, Xu Lian pulled Dou Shan behind him, protecting her. He casually grabbed a coat hanging on a chair, shook it, and with a flick, caught all the incoming objects as if with a net.

Then, he spun around, and the coat, wrapped around those objects, was precisely flung back, hitting Feng Kexin.

“Ah ah ah! My face! My makeup!” Many of the objects had scattered when they were thrown, but when Xu Lian flung them back, Feng Kexin, who had been exquisitely made up, was instantly splattered with colorful makeup, turning her into a multi-colored monstrosity.

The makeup artists standing by, who were usually bossed around by her, couldn't help but burst out laughing when they saw her like this.

“You’re all finished! None of you will get away with this!” Feng Kexin cried and cursed, throwing away everything that had hit her. Then she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

“Uncle Gu! Someone is bullying me! If you don’t come, I’m going to be beaten to death! Wuwuwu—”

Listening to her tearful voice on the phone, Xu Lian was genuinely surprised by her “face-changing” skill.

She was too good at acting!

But he didn’t have time to appreciate her brilliant “acting.”

“Shan Shan, are you okay?” He looked at Dou Shan behind him, remembering how Feng Kexin had been throwing things like a madwoman. Sure enough, he saw some bruises on Dou Shan’s body.

“Why did you rush in, are you silly? Those things wouldn’t have hit me, but now you’re hurt!”

Xu Lian tenderly touched her injuries. Hearing her gasp in pain but bite her lip without a sound, his heart suddenly clenched.

He looked back at Feng Kexin; aside from some color on her clothes, she had almost no serious injuries, which made him feel even more upset.

If he had known she was so reckless, he wouldn't have held back earlier just because she was a woman. It was completely unnecessary.

“Isn’t she your company’s President? How can you tolerate such an employee?” Xu Lian was angry, but also a little confused.

Dou Shan gave a wry smile and said, “She’s not actually managed by my department.

I am the current President of Qingyun Group, but I only oversee the traditional sectors.

The online streaming part is very special. When my father managed the company back then, he set a rule for them to develop independently.

This part is overseen by Fang Liumei, and Feng Kexin is part of his team.

To put it plainly, she’s not my employee.

And you are someone I invited, I can’t stand by and watch you be bullied by others.”

“Also, the reason she dares to be so arrogant is definitely because of Fang Liumei’s support.

That person is not to be trifled with.” Dou Shan sighed softly.

“You…” Xu Lian looked at Dou Shan, who was clearly stubbornly putting on a brave face, and felt a surge of anger and helplessness.

The thought of Fang Liumei, whom he hadn't yet met, made his anger uncontrollable.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man with a prominent belly walked in.

“What’s going on? Why is everything in such a mess? The live stream is about to start, what are you all doing?” Fang Liumei grumbled as he walked in.

He was accustomed to being in a position of authority, and he didn’t mince his words. Seeing his woman even mess up the live stream room, he immediately became displeased.

“Uncle Gu, you’re finally here! Look at how they’ve bullied me!”

“Kexin? Oh my goodness, how did you become like this? Who did this?” Fang Liumei watched a “monster” covered in colorful makeup and completely disfigured run towards him. At first, he didn’t realize who it was.

He composed himself and then recognized it was Feng Kexin, who had climbed to her position by having a relationship with him.

He was a bit puzzled; their relationship was actually a private matter, but Feng Kexin insisted on publicizing it everywhere, as if he were her official boyfriend.

Although this made him a bit uncomfortable, logically speaking, who would dare to bully his person?
