Lunch break time!

When all the colleagues in the firm were busy cleaning up their desks and preparing to go out for dinner, He Dusheng appeared in front of Yao Liwen again.

Seeing him appear, Yao Liwen cried out in pain and her scalp started to go numb.

"Liwen, are you hungry? Let's go out and eat now." He Dusheng spoke as if it was a matter of course, and he didn't care about the gazes of the people around him.

He didn't care, but that didn't mean Yao Liwen didn't care.

"I'm sorry, Mr. He. I've already made an appointment with Sister Chen to have a meal together. I can only thank you for your kindness.”

"Oh! Is that so?"

He Dusheng said softly, his sharp eyes glancing coldly at Chen Shengzhi.

Chen Shengzhi quickly shook his hands and said,""No, no, Liwen and I didn't even have an appointment to eat together. Really, Mr. He, I swear to God.”

When she heard Chen Shengzhi was so disloyal and anxious to cut ties with her, Yao Liwen's mood could only be described as bitter.

"Haha! Liwen, what should we do? Between you and Chen Shengzhi, who should I believe?”He Dusheng's words were not only ambiguous, but his expression was also very cunning.

This was nothing. What was even more hateful was that this man actually did not have her consent and pulled her hair that she had painstakingly tied up.

"Mr. He, don't you think it's too much?”Yao Liwen couldn't take it anymore. She didn't care if he was the boss or not. She would scold him first.

"Overboard? No! I'm not in the toilet, and I don't have a bamboo pole. How can you say that I'm too much?”

Looking at his aggrieved face, Yao Liwen was at her wit's end. She could only say with a cold face,""Mr. He, I'm not hungry. If you're hungry, please go ahead.”At this point, her thoughts suddenly changed. She turned around and said to her colleagues in the firm,"Good news. Mr. He is in a good mood today and plans to invite everyone to eat together. Those who want to go, please clap.”

As soon as he said this, all the colleagues in the law firm clapped their hands. For a moment, it was really lively and scary.

He Dusheng couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.

Alright! This woman actually dared to use this method to trick him.

Since that was the case, he couldn't let her go. Even if he had to drag her down today, he had to drag her down with him.

"Alright then! Today, based on Miss Yao's words, I'll treat everyone to lunch. Come on, everyone!”He Dusheng didn't care whether Yao Liwen was willing or not. He grabbed her hand and forced her to participate.

He didn't expect that his words would hurt his Yao Liwen. Now, even if he really wanted to decline, he couldn't. He could only follow them to eat with a face full of reluctance.

However, Yao Liwen felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles during this meal because of He Dusheng's " special " care for her and the " caring " gazes that were cast on her.

Would she really be able to digest the meal in such an atmosphere?

After lunch, Yao Liwen was immediately pestered by the curious Chen Shengzhi.

"Speak! What happened this morning? Also, where are your glasses? And why did you come to work without makeup this morning? Tell me the truth about these things one by one, or I promise I won't let you have a good time today.”

Looking at her posture, she really looked like a fierce woman.

"Sigh! Sister Chen, I'm already sad enough today. There's no need to add you, right?”

Helplessness! The innocent her didn't want to cause any trouble at all, but trouble came naturally. This really made her want to cry but had no tears.

Chen Shengzhi's heart ached a little when he saw her like that. He couldn't help but soften his tone."Alright! Sister Chen won't force you. As long as you're willing to obediently tell me what happened this morning, I'll let you go!”

Did this mean that he was no longer forcing her? Yao Liwen thought helplessly. She was too lazy to explain the whole story, but she knew Chen Shengzhi's personality.

If she didn't tell the truth, it would be difficult for her to escape. Therefore, she could only obediently tell her what happened in the morning.

"I don't know what happened today, but I bumped into Mr. He early in the morning. Originally, Mr. He wanted me to take his car to work, but do you think I would dare?”Of course not. Even if she wasn't stabbed to death, she would be skinned alive.

Hearing Yao Liwen's words, Chen Shengzhi furrowed his brows. He knew that this matter couldn't be so simple. "And then?"

"Then, of course, I didn't dare to get in the car! Who knew that when I squeezed into the bus, Mr. He actually left his car behind and ran to squeeze with me. Not only did it make me sweat, but it also made me embarrassed. When I got off the bus, I wanted to get rid of him before my colleagues came to work. Who knew that I ran fast, but he walked faster than me? I ran until my back was drenched in sweat, and he walked easily. This was nothing. In the end, he actually took out a handkerchief to wipe my sweat in front of Hui Ling and Xiao Ping. I believe that you know how I would react if I don't say it. Who knew that the more I hid, the worse the situation became. So, everything should be blamed on that hateful man.”

After hearing Yao Liwen's explanation, Chen Shengzhi had a strange thought. "Let me ask you, before this, did you know Mr. He?”

"Please!"

Rolling her eyes, Yao Liwen said with a face full of fear,"Why would I know that God of Plagues? No matter how unlucky I am, I shouldn't be that unlucky!”

"Otherwise, why would Mr. He take pleasure in messing with you for no reason?”This was not acceptable.

According to Chen Shengzhi's understanding of He Dusheng, she knew that he had always valued harmony. Even if he really lacked a female partner, he would never provoke a female colleague in the firm. That was why everyone could coexist peacefully, because of equal opportunities!

"Sister Chen, are you saying that everything Mr. He did was to mess with me?”Was that even possible?

She had no grievances with him in the past and had no enmity with him recently. Why did he want to mess with her? Could it be that…she had offended that despicable person before and didn't even realize it?

Chen Shengzhi saw that her face had turned pale from her words, so she patted her little hand and comforted her,""Of course, it's also possible that Mr. He did all of this on purpose to attract your attention.”This was not impossible.

After all, she was pretty and cute, had a good figure, and her ability to do things was also top-notch. It was not every day that one could meet such a good woman who was beautiful both inside and outside.

"Attract my attention?"

Heavens! If he was messing with her, she could still accept it. As long as she found out why he was messing with her, everything would be solved.

However, if everything he did was to attract her attention, she would not be able to accept it.

Not only was she unable to accept it, she was also scared to death.

Just think about it, if she provoked such a terrifying man for no reason, even if she had nine lives, it would not be enough for him to play with!

"Sister Chen, what should we do? Do you think it's better for me to resign now?”After resigning, all the troubles would be avoided.

Thinking about it, Yao Liwen really felt that it was right. If she could resolve all the crisis, then she wouldn't mind giving up this job.

"Things have already developed to this point. Do you really want to resign to solve all the problems? Besides, even if you really want to resign, you have to go through Mr. He. Is he really going to let you off so easily?”Chen Shengzhi told her the truth clearly and cruelly.

"That's right! Why didn't I think of that?" Yao Liwen felt a headache coming on." Sister Chen, teach me. What should I do?"”

What should he do?

Cold salad! What else could he do?

Who taught her not to provoke anyone? She had to provoke her immediate superior. Now, even if she really wanted to get away, it would be difficult!

In order to prevent the same thing from happening again, Yao Liwen had seen He Dusheng leave after work. She had packed her things and left work.

Who knew that the moment he stepped out of the law firm, he would unexpectedly bump into the God of Plagues again.

Yao Liwen's face turned pale as soon as she saw him. She instinctively turned around and wanted to escape back to the law firm.

He Dusheng saw that the timid woman wanted to escape again, so he stepped in front of her and said,"Didn't you already pack your things and get off work? Why are you still walking into the law firm?"

"I, I…"

Yao Liwen, who had been forced into a cold sweat by him, desperately thought about it, hoping that she could quickly think of an excuse to escape from his clutches.

"You don't have to do that. Come, I'll help you with your bag. Let's go have dinner first and then take a taxi home.”

As he spoke, He Dusheng snatched her purse away. He wasn't afraid that she wouldn't follow him, so he turned around and walked forward.

Yao Liwen had all her belongings in her purse. What should she do if her purse was snatched away?

Other than following him, what else could she do?

"Mr. He, please don't make things difficult for me, okay?”In order to avoid future troubles, Yao Liwen could only disregard her dignity and beg for mercy.

"Difficult?"

"Who said I was making things difficult for you?" He Dusheng asked.”

"I don't need anyone to tell me. With Mr. He's abnormal behavior today, if I still can't tell that you're making things difficult for me, then I'm no different from an idiot.”

Hehe, this was interesting.

He Dusheng crossed his arms and said to her leisurely,""Tell me, what basis do you have to think that everything I did was to make things difficult for you?”

"Do you still need evidence? You know that I've just started working at the firm and will be ostracized by some of my colleagues. In addition to your special treatment, do you think my life here will be good?”Yao Liwen said with an agitated expression, looking a little aggrieved.

"Yes, yes, hearing what you said does make some sense. However, if you say that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, then you're really framing me.”

Even if He Dusheng was deliberately making things difficult for her, he wouldn't admit it in front of her.

"Your words are very contradictory, Mr. He.”Yao Liwen pointed out the loophole in his words with a serious expression.

"What conflict?" He Dusheng asked.

"You said that my words are reasonable, but you also said that I deliberately wronged you. Isn't this contradictory?”

"I don't think there's any contradiction in my words.”In terms of eloquence, He Dusheng was definitely not inferior to anyone. He could turn black into white.

"The reason why I agree with your words is that I have indeed neglected your position. I did not consider the problem of getting along with your colleagues. But I didn't say that everything I did was to find trouble with you.”This had to be made clear.

"Good! Even if you really didn't consider my position before, now that I've explained everything to you openly, you should understand. Can you let me go from now on and stop finding trouble with me?”She could let go of everything that had happened before, but what about after that? Was he willing to let her go just like that?

"Not good." He heartlessly rejected her request.

"Wait, you can continue chatting, but you have to find a place to fill your stomach first. After that, I'll give you a lot of time to talk.”After saying that, He Dusheng pulled her to find a place to eat.

During the entire meal, He Du ate the food with relish. Yao Liwen did not have such a good appetite. She picked up her chopsticks and poked the food. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed as she thought about what she should do to solve these troubles.

When he was finally full, Yao Liwen finally made up her mind and said,"Mr. He, I've decided."

"Decide what?" He wiped the oil off the corner of his mouth and asked her. He was surprised to find that this woman hadn't eaten much.

"Why do you eat so little? You're wasting food.”

"This is a small matter. Let's not talk about it for the time being. Mr. He, I'm now officially submitting my resignation to you. I hope you can allow it.”

It wasn't that she didn't like her current job, but she really couldn't stand the situation. Therefore, she had no choice but to take the extreme measure of cutting off her wrists and showing her greatest determination. "Even if you don't allow it, I still insist on resigning.”

When he heard that she was going to resign, He Dusheng knew that he had really pushed her into a corner.

Oh no! What should he do now? Let her go? How was this possible?

Since he couldn't let this woman leave him, the only thing He Dusheng could do was to try his best to keep her. However, he couldn't think of a way at the moment. "After you finish all the food in front of you, we'll discuss this problem again.”

In order to buy himself some time, He Dusheng decided to stall for time until he had a plan.

Once she decided to resign, Yao Liwen really felt a little hungry, so she quietly ate.

Frowning his thick eyebrows, He Dusheng quietly watched her eat delicately. He was worried about how to salvage her decision to resign.

"Alright, Mr. He, I'm full.”

This was the first and last dinner they had together. Therefore, Yao Liwen didn't want to be mean to him. She just waited for him to return the purse to her. She wanted to see if he or she would pay the bill.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, okay? I think there might be some misunderstandings between us. I hope you can give me more time to explain these misunderstandings.”In order to keep this woman, He Dusheng had racked his brains and finally came up with this perfect excuse.

"Misunderstanding?" Was there? Yao Liwen was suspicious, but she couldn't refute him in front of him. She could only agree to his request.

"Good!" Let's part on good terms! She did not have any deep hatred for him, so why did she have to fall out with him at this last moment? It would not benefit anyone, right?

"That's great!" He Dusheng smiled as if he had been relieved of a burden." Since we're going to have a good chat, I'd like to ask the waiter to bring two drinks." What do you want to drink?"

Yao Liwen couldn't help but laugh along with him when she saw him smiling so warmly. "Okay, orange juice is ready."

"Alright." He Dusheng waved his hand and called the waiter over." Please help us tidy up the table. Also, please bring a cup of Blue Mountain coffee and a glass of orange juice."”

While waiting for the waiter to serve the drinks, He Dusheng was thinking about where he should start, so the atmosphere between the two of them was quiet.

When the waiter served the drinks, He Dusheng said,""Remember last Sunday? The day we met at the supermarket.”

" I..." Yao Liwen wanted to deny it awkwardly.

" Don't deny that we've never met," He Dusheng said before she could." Let me finish, okay?"”

Hearing him mention what happened that day, Yao Liwen couldn't help but feel guilty for her prank, so she had no choice but to agree." You go first."”This could be considered as making up for his loss.

"To be honest, without makeup, you really look like a girlfriend of mine whose name I don't even know. It's because you look too similar that I went up to talk to you that day.

After chatting with you, I realized that I had mistaken you for someone else, so I asked you if you had a twin sister. Who knew…"

"I mistakenly thought that you were a lecher who deliberately wanted to take advantage of me. That's why I deliberately gave you the wrong phone number and name.”

Speaking of this, Yao Liwen really felt sorry. No wonder Chen Shengzhi patted his chest in front of her and assured her that he was definitely not the kind of boring man who would hit on her halfway.

So it was all a misunderstanding. But…

"Since you've already confirmed that I'm not your girlfriend, why are you still playing tricks on me today?”

Speaking of this topic, He Dusheng asked her with a faint smile,""Didn't you also mess with me once?"

"Uh, that's true." " You shouldn't be angry now, right? You shouldn't be looking for trouble with me anymore, right?"”

"That depends on your decision.”He Dusheng was smart enough not to answer her directly. Instead, he threw the question back to her to worry about.

"Why?" Yao Liwen really couldn't understand why she had to make the decision.

"To be honest, putting aside the prank you pulled on me, you're a good employee. You're serious, responsible, and capable. To be honest, it's really difficult for me to let go of such an employee, so I hope you don't resign and continue to work at the firm. Otherwise…you should be able to understand the consequences.”

Rolling her eyes, Yao Liwen said disapprovingly,"Mr. He, your words are simply a threat!”Who would use such a shameless method to force someone to stay?

"I had no choice! Who taught you to be so capable, and you hit it off so well with me, making me very tempted.”

Hearing his words, Yao Liwen couldn't help but blush. She was afraid that he would say something embarrassing.

"Hahaha!" He Dusheng saw that her face was red and her eyes were lowered. She didn't even dare to look at him. He Dusheng couldn't help but laugh." You misunderstood me. What I meant was that you hit it off with me. I was so moved that I wanted to take you as my sister.”

"Mr. He." Yao Liwen roared in shame. She was annoyed at how this man had spoken so ambiguously, causing her to let her imagination run wild and make a fool of herself.

"Alright! Alright! Don't be angry. I was just joking with you. You can't ignore me, your big brother, just like that, right?”He Dusheng couldn't hold himself back when he saw her shy look. If it weren't for the circumstances, he really wanted to taste her flushed cheeks and see if they were really as delicious as peaches.

"Big brother? Humph! You admit that I'm your sister, but I didn't admit that you're my big brother!”As an only daughter, although she had always hoped to have a brother or sister since she was young, Yao Liwen was afraid that she would not be able to handle this "big brother" who liked to mess with her!

"Alright! Alright! It's not bad to acknowledge me as your big brother! As long as you are willing to acknowledge me as your big brother, you won't have to squeeze with others on the bus to and from work every day. If you are unlucky enough to be bullied, you still have me as your big brother to stand up for you. Moreover, my mother's cooking skills are top-notch. As long as you are willing to acknowledge me as your big brother, I guarantee that you will eat and drink well every day. How about it? There are so many benefits. Shouldn't you consider them carefully?”In order to let her guard down, He Dusheng did everything he could. He even brought out his mother's cooking skills.

Yao Liwen couldn't help but laugh at his coaxing. "Alright! I'll reluctantly acknowledge you as my big brother, but I have a condition. If you agree, we can only be siblings!”

"What premise?" He Dusheng asked impatiently.

Today, as long as she was willing to let him get closer to her, he would agree to a hundred conditions, let alone one.

"This is the premise! I will only call you big brother in private. In front of the other colleagues in the firm, I will still call you Mr. He. Is that okay?”

In order to avoid rumors, if he did not agree to this condition, not only would they not be siblings, but it would also be difficult to maintain the relationship between the boss and his subordinate.

"Good! It's a deal." He Dusheng agreed readily.

He had always been a person who separated public and private matters. No matter who it was today, they could not change his principle.

"Deal."

Thus, a love game of mutual deception officially began. Who would be the final winner?# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:1024201811:02AM
