Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 688 - 686: Who the Hell is Spreading Rumors!

Instantly, she was furious, glaring at the self-satisfied man as if flames could shoot from her eyes.

"What, you missed me just after one morning without seeing me?"

She gritted her teeth, "Lu Jinyang, can your skin get any thicker?"

"How thick do you want it to be?"

Fuming with rage, she launched herself at him, and Lu Jinyang deftly pulled her along, tumbling together onto the bed.

Xiao Qing tried to struggle free, but a deep voice by her ear said, "Don’t move, let me hold you for a while~"

His voice was different from before, clearly laced with fatigue and drowsiness, softening Xiao Qing’s heart abruptly, and she obediently stayed still in his arms without moving.

Soon, she heard his even breathing, and upon looking at him, noticed the dark circles beneath his eyes. He must have not slept last night and went out early, which is why he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

She pulled the blanket over them, snuggled closer into his embrace, and closed her eyes, falling back into a deep sleep...

While the couple slept, the lobby of New City Entertainment was a complete mess.

Li Weonian stood in the lobby, trying to push his portly body forward, shouting as he squeezed through, "Excuse me, let me through~" Nobody noticed the greasy hands that kept wandering over the ladies’ bodies~

The crowd surged, and people jostled each other, assuming it was accidental contact, without giving it another thought. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

If you listened closely, perhaps you could catch a quiet discussion: "New City is about to be acquired, we heard we’re going to be laid off, what about our wages?"

"Go demand it from the finance department."

"But can you actually push your way in?"

No one knows who was the heartless person who locked the stairs, leaving only the elevator. Hundreds of people gathered here waiting to take the elevator to the finance department, causing the lobby to be overcrowded.

Upstairs, the finance and human resources departments were in a frenzy. They had assigned people to block the elevator doors to prevent anyone from leaving the elevator, hoping to delay people this way.

Guan Juntao, the HR manager, who had acted so subservient in front of Lu Jinyang this morning, was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing nonstop in the office, unable to come up with a solution.

Someone, unable to watch any longer, advised him to stop, but he yelled at them, "Can’t you see I’m anxious? If I sit down, I’ll be even more anxious to death!"

Everyone was speechless; at this critical time, everyone was frantic, but no one had any solutions.

All possible methods had already been tried, but no one could reach the president.

With the exception of the CEO, only the president of New City has any say, but no one apart from the president knew the CEO’s contact information.

A group of people looked at each other, on the verge of tears.

"Here they come, here they come~ Quick, get more people over to stop them..."

Ding~

The elevator doors opened, and the finance and HR people on that floor gasped in unison. Looking in, the elevator was packed with people, obviously reaching its maximum capacity.

"You people, don’t be delusional anymore, New City is going to be bankrupt soon, hurry up and pay out the wages so we can all part on good terms."

Guan Juntao spat out, "Who the hell is spreading rumors! I just saw the president and the CEO this morning, they were fine, how could they possibly be acquired by the afternoon!"

After returning to his department, Guan Juntao took out Li Weonian’s resume and circulated it, also conveying the intentions of the president and the CEO, so the HR department believed Guan Juntao’s words.
