The expressionless Gu Yuehan said, “Besides… once the Russian government establishes cooperation with us where interests are involved, we’ll become passive and at their service. By then… the Ivanov Family will take advantage of the situation and destroy us.”
The man was sick of the scheming politics that went on in Russia and cursed. “Goddamn it, those two old fogies are two peas in a pod. They’re both so scheming and harbor so many ill intentions.”
Wen Xinya did not expect there to be so much tension going on in Russia and there to be so many sly foxes plotting against Lucifer. Not to mention, the elections were about to begin very soon. It was little wonder that Si Yiyan would be so careful.
The election this time would greatly affect Lucifer’s fate, and any accidental blunders would result in a fatal blow to it.
Si Yiyan flipped through the documents in his hands nonchalantly and said, “It’s best for Lucifer to remain in the status quo. Given our favorable position in Russia, even the government and the rich have to be wary of us. We must keep our prestigious and influential status.”
Si Yiyan sounded rather prideful and confident.
Gu Yuehan and that man were both speechless.
Wen Xinya looked at him in extreme awe.
Si Yiyan appeared composed and collected, though also assertive and domineering. “I know that you guys have overflowing ambitions because of the fact that Lucifer has been keeping a low profile throughout the past few years. Don’t worry… there are lots of internal conflicts going on in the inner department of Russia, and the politicians are all plotting against each other. We should just sit this one out and reap the spoils later. Once the election is over, lots of authorities will be wiped out, and it’d be the best time for us to harvest our gains.”
His words had finalized the situation.
Wen Xinya suddenly understood what it meant for a man to be suave, handsome, dashing, domineering and assertive!
The discussion was over and the man was casually picking at his teeth.
Wen Xinya noticed that Si Yiyan would pick up the teacup on the table and put it down again every now and then, read through some documents and occasionally lean against the couch and rub his temples.
Anyone who knew Si Yiyan well would know that he was just indirectly gesturing for them to leave.
Wen Xinya remarked in her head, He’s so poor at catching hints and understanding his boss’ intentions. So buff and yet such a dimwit.
She then felt that Si Yiyan must have a hard time working with such a dense person. She then glowered at the man.
Being sharp and sensitive, the man looked up and asked, “Why are you glaring at me?”
Wen Xinya suddenly felt as if all eyes were on her.
Wen Xinya was extremely shy and felt like her face would definitely be red. Pretending to be innocent, her eyes darted around the place and answered, “Do I know you?”
Si Yiyan looked at Wen Xinya in complete amusement. He smiled in a relaxed manner and looked rather flirtatious.
The man scratched his head and said in bewilderment, “No.”
Does that have anything to do with her glaring at me? He wondered.
Wen Xinya stared at him and exclaimed, “Since I don’t know you, why would I glare at you!?!”
The man tugged his hair again and said, “Seems like you’re right!”
Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief for she had made it through again.
This time, the man suggested. “Boss, I rarely come to the city. Now that I’m here, why don’t we go out for some drinks tonight?”
Upon hearing his words, Wen Xinya scowled at him again.
What a dull and senseless dimwit.
The man said smugly, “Haha! I knew you were glaring at me. See… I caught you in the act again! I knew it! How could my instincts be wrong? You clearly glared at me indignantly.”
His animal-like instincts had saved him on numerous occasions.
Wen Xinya felt an urge to grit her teeth in anger and embarrassment.
Gu Yuehan grimaced, contemplating if he should drag the dimwit out.
“You guys may take your leave!”
Gu Yuehan again scolded himself for being stupid. He stared at the dimwit beside him and thought to himself that stupidity was contagious.
The two of them then left, after which Gu Yuehan meticulously closed the door.
Sensing that someone was staring at her, Wen Xinya turned red while her heart began palpitating. She cleared her throat and said, “I… I… I actually came to tell you that dinner is ready…”
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a strong urge to bite her tongue off, feeling ashamed for spluttering incoherently…
As Si Yiyan walked towards her slowly, Wen Xinya noticed that the sunlight from outside made his silhouette appear even longer.
She instinctively looked up at his slender body as he stopped in front of her and exuded a charming yet oppressing aura which made it difficult for her to breathe.
She rose from her seat and said, “Um… dinner is getting cold…”
Si Yiyan stepped forward and hugged her tightly in his arms while massaging her. Wen Xinya could feel his heart ricocheting against his chest.
“Wen Xinya, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you.”
Before Wen Xinya could even respond, Si Yiyan began kissing her.
He pinned her down onto the couch aggressively and kissed her with lips like jade.
He grabbed her soft hand tightly while her heart wrenched up. She suddenly found it difficult to breathe and had no choice but to look up and catch her breath.
The room was filled with the intense exchange of their breaths and their burning passion. Xu Xianghu exclaimed, “Hey! Boss, your woman has got great culinary skills. The food that she made smells heavenly. If you don’t come out, Gu Yuehan and I are going to finish the food!”
Wen Xinya’s heart beat rapidly.
She suddenly felt an immense fear that the two dimwits outside would barge in.
Si Yiyan was not at all bothered and instead continued to kiss her even more passionately.
Wen Xinya shivered from head to toe and suddenly sobered up. She pushed Si Yiyan and said, “People… there are people outside…”
Si Yiyan planted a few more kisses before saying, “If he dares to come in, I’ll beat him into a pulp.”
Wen Xinya was filled with anger all of a sudden. She punched his arm and ordered. “Let go of me.”
Si Yiyan paused in his actions and stared at her composedly.
Wen Xinya pushed Si Yiyan away, stood up and arranged her clothes neatly. “If we still don’t go out and have dinner, they’re really going to finish the food.”
She then turned around and left.
Si Yiyan suddenly hugged her waist and said, “Wen Xinya, let me hug you for a while longer.”
