Chapter 44: Lin Xi Dances a Sensual and Spicy Routine
Ye Huan's words struck like a blade into the hearts of Wang Bin and his entire team.
Without Ye Huan having to spell it out, the moment they learned they had been abandoned by the Su Group, they knew their corporate careers were as good as finished!
"President Lin..."
Wang Bin suddenly dropped to his knees before Lin Xi, apologizing and repenting with a flood of tears and snot:
"President Lin, I was wrong! It's all my fault for listening to that scoundrel Su Rui's nonsense and doing something so foolish..."
With that, Wang Bin began to slap his own face repeatedly and fiercely with both hands.
Amidst the slaps, he continued his repentance:
"It was my greed and weak will. I shouldn't have wavered in my loyalty to the Lin Group..."
As Wang Bin knelt and poured out his apologies, every member of his team dropped to their knees as well, crying out in a chaotic scramble, eagerly shouting that they had been deceived by Wang Bin and offering similar excuses.
"Go find a nightclub and work as a gigolo; the people who frequent those places won't care about your character!"
With that cold parting remark, Lin Xi turned and entered the Lin Group building. Walking as she spoke, she said:
"Ye Huan, park the car and come to my office."
"Alright!"
Ye Huan nodded, got back into the car, and drove toward the entrance of the underground parking garage.
Meanwhile, the snot-and-tear-stained Wang Bin knelt on the ground, slumped like a pile of mud, utterly devoid of a soul.
"Wang Bin! We had it so good at the Lin Group—high salaries, great benefits! It's all your fault for coaxing us into jumping ship..."
At that moment, one of Wang Bin's team members stood up and viciously kicked Wang Bin over.
Seeing this, the others scrambled to their feet and rushed forward, raining blows and kicks on Wang Bin while cursing:
"You bastard, you've ruined my career!"
"Wang Bin, you've killed me..."
"My parents, wife, and kids all depend on my salary. Now you've gotten me fired, and I don't even know if I can find another job. I'm going to beat you to death, you piece of shit..."
Wang Bin curled up on the ground, shielding his head, enduring the beating from his team members without a single word of protest or any attempt to fight back...
After parking the car in the underground parking garage, just as Ye Huan was about to head up to the CEO's office to find Lin Xi, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
Qi Meng!
Right, Qi Meng—that six-foot-three martial artist hired by Su Lei!
"Almost forgot about him. It wouldn't matter if Qi Meng's martial arts sect came after me for revenge, but if they decide to vent their anger on the Lin family, that would be troublesome!"
After pondering for a moment, Ye Huan took out his phone and dialed Enchantress.
"My Lord, did you miss me?"
The call connected, and Enchantress's cheerful voice came through the receiver.
"Enchantress, I beat up Qi Meng this morning. I'm worried his martial arts sect might cause trouble for me or retaliate against the Lin family. Head over to Holy Dragon Martial Arts Center and make them back down!"
"You called me just for this?"
An exceptionally disappointed voice came through the phone.
"Come back tonight and I'll reward you with three rounds." Ye Huan said.
Enchantress instantly beamed with joy: "You got it! I'm heading to Holy Dragon Martial Arts Center right now!"
Ye Huan hung up the phone, went up to Lin Xi's office, and asked:
"Did you need something by calling me to your office?"
Lin Xi did not speak immediately. Instead, she leaned back in her executive chair, crossed her arms, and looked at Ye Huan with a complex gaze before asking:
"Are you really just a pig butcher?"
Too many things had happened over the past two days, forcing Lin Xi to completely reevaluate Ye Huan.
He possessed medical skills;
He was insanely good at fighting;
His racing skills were unfathomable;
His hacking skills surpassed the combined abilities of everyone in the Lin Group's cybersecurity department;
Moreover, with a single phone call, he summoned sixty people to work as security guards at the Lin Group, and these guards answered to him alone;
With another phone call, he summoned a group of elite hackers capable of effortlessly paralyzing the Su Group;
On top of all that, Ye Huan was wildly bold, willing to strike anyone, yet meticulous and decisive. Even scumbags like Jin Jiu and overlords of a generation like Su Yunting were no match for him.
Could a man like this...
Really be a pig butcher?
"I don't think I've ever actually admitted to being a pig butcher, have I?" Ye Huan asked with a smile.
Lin Xi was momentarily stunned, only then realizing that she, her grandfather, her father, and her mother had all misunderstood his profession.
What Ye Huan had said at the time was that he worked in the slaughter industry, not that he slaughtered pigs.
"Do you run a slaughterhouse business overseas?" Lin Xi asked.
Ye Huan thought for a moment and replied: "I am a titan of the global slaughter industry, a true giant in the meat processing world."
That statement contained no exaggeration; the Underworld King was indeed the undisputed top butcher in the world.
"So you're an entrepreneur!"
Lin Xi's realization dawned. Changing the subject, she said:
"I just called the finance department and instructed them to transfer ten million into your salary account."
"What do you mean?" Ye Huan didn't quite catch her drift.
"As an employee of the Lin Group, you saved the company. Those ten million are your bonus from the company!" Lin Xi explained.
"Oh!"
Ye Huan didn't care about a ten-million-dollar bonus at all. Compared to his vast wealth, this amount was mere pocket change!
Lin Xi continued: "I am someone who distinguishes clearly between gratitude and grudges. You saved me three times yesterday; how would you like me to repay you?"
The so-called clear distinction between gratitude and grudges meant that any kindness received must be repaid, and any enmity must be avenged!
Yesterday, Ye Huan had saved her three times: once during the kidnapping incident; once when Jin Fengyu brought men to find her in the private dining room at Shangyang Restaurant; and once when Jin Peng brought men to drag her out of a bar.
These were debts she owed Ye Huan, and they had to be settled!
As for her grudge against Ye Huan for freeloading and humiliating her, she would definitely settle that score as well!
"How about you dress up in something a bit spicy and dance a sexy, provocative dance for me?"
Ye Huan looked at Lin Xi, who was dressed in a professional suit. He originally wanted to ask Lin Xi to sleep with him, but he knew that if he voiced that, Lin Xi would definitely blow a gasket.
So, he decided to make a request that Lin Xi would find somewhat more acceptable.
"If I do as you ask, we'll be square?" Lin Xi asked.
"Right!" Ye Huan nodded.
"Alright, wait a moment!"
Lin Xi readily agreed, turned around, and walked into the lounge attached to the CEO's office. Shortly after, she emerged wearing a completely different outfit!
Good grief!
Seeing what Lin Xi had changed into, Ye Huan's heart skipped a beat.
With her hair cascading loosely over her shoulders, wearing a semi-transparent white V-neck short-sleeve top, a short black skirt, stockings on her legs, and high heels on her feet.
She was the picture of a seductive, alluring siren!
"Is this outfit okay?" Lin Xi asked.
In fact, before going to sleep last night, she had already planned to thank Ye Huan today and had anticipated what kind of request he might make. That was why she had everything prepared and left in the lounge that morning.
"Yes, yes, hurry up and dance!"
Ye Huan urged eagerly.
"Okay!"
Lin Xi nodded, selected a song on her phone, and began to move her slender body.
Ye Huan swore he had never seen a dance so sexy, so fiery, or so intoxicating in his entire life; it made his blood rush far more than any high-end adult dance performance ever could.
Moreover, Lin Xi had a strong foundation in dance, and every single movement was executed with near-perfection.
That dance was nothing short of thrilling!
"Alright, from now on, I don't owe you anything!"
With that, Lin Xi finished the dance, turned around, and headed back into the lounge to change her clothes.
"She leaves the moment the dance is over. How is this any different from pulling up your pants and walking away right after finishing?"
Ye Huan lowered his head to look at his proudly standing little buddy and muttered under his breath.
