The Bootlicking Antagonist Only Wants to Survive, but the Female Lead Refuses to Follow the Usual Plot

Chapter 103 Leng Qingqiu who sacrificed everything

Lu Chengwen carried Leng Qingqiu back to the inner suite and tossed her onto the bed, startling her with a scream.

Suddenly, the sound of the main door being pushed open came from behind, followed by Jiang Shihan's loud announcement:

"Mr. Xu, please wait a moment..."

Lu Chengwen was startled: "Wait for me here!"

He hurriedly instructed Leng Qingqiu and turned to go out, closing the door behind him.

As soon as Xu Xuejiao entered, she noticed something was off with Lu Chengwen.

A woman's intuition is sharp.

She had forgotten that she had come to reconcile with Lu Chengwen. Instead, she eyed him up and down as if he were a thief.

"Lu Chengwen, what are you doing?"

Lu Chengwen's mental fortitude was rock solid. His face didn't redden, and his heart didn't skip a beat: "Nothing."

"Why is your face red?"

"Huh? Oh, I was exercising."

"Exercising in a suit?"

"Is that not allowed?"

Xu Xuejiao's face grew darker: "What about your shirt?"

"Shirt?" Lu Chengwen looked down to see several buttons of his shirt undone, crumpled limply inside his clothes.

He quickly adjusted his clothes: "It's too hot."

"Your pants."

Lu Chengwen lowered his head again. His belt was loose, and his fly was open.

He hastily tidied himself up: "Exercising...the most important thing is to let yourself go."

"Is there someone in the room?"

Lu Chengwen quickly replied: "No one."

"Oh, I'll go have a look."

Lu Chengwen quickly stopped Xu Xuejiao: "Hey, hey, I said there's no one. What are you looking at?"

"I'm going to look!"

Xu Xuejiao pushed the door open, went in, and looked around. There was no one. The bed was neatly made.

"What were you doing?"

"I told you, working! No, exercising."

Finding no evidence, Xu Xuejiao's mind cooled down a bit: "Just now..."

"I was wrong just now." Lu Chengwen said, "I shouldn't have yelled at you."

Xu Xuejiao was stunned, then smiled: "You know that?"

"Yes, yes, I was wrong." Lu Chengwen pulled her out to the living room: "I was too agitated just now and said some harsh things. I formally apologize to you."

Xu Xuejiao pouted, but she was happy and relieved in her heart.

Chengwen truly had a manly demeanor. Though he was fierce and overbearing during their argument, he knew how to apologize to a girl, giving her a way out. Who wouldn't like such a boyfriend?

Moreover, his angry appearance was quite manly indeed.

Thinking of this, Xu Xuejiao forgot about catching him in the act and started daydreaming instead.

"Will you be fierce to me again in the future?"

Lu Chengwen's heart pounded.

Leng Qingqiu's sudden passionate outburst had ignited a fire in him. Now he had to suppress it, worried that Xu Xuejiao might discover Leng Qingqiu inside and cause another eruption...

So, flustered and distracted, he agreed without thinking.

"No, no, I'll listen to you from now on. Whatever you say is what goes."

"Then will you help my father acquire Qianfeng?"

"Huh?"

Xu Xuejiao was merely testing the waters. Seeing that Lu Chengwen didn't answer immediately, she worried about ruining their newly mended relationship and quickly said:

"Forget it! I know Chengwen is loyal and righteous. You have feelings for Leng Qingqiu. ally, you can't kick someone when they're down. I won't force you."

"Ah."

"But next time you talk to her, be gentler!"

"Yes, I'll be gentle... gentle."

"Don't be nice to me only when you need me and then act all fierce when you don't! You'll hurt my feelings!"

"Yes, hurt... hurt."

"Let's go out and have some fun?"

"Huh?"

Lu Chengwen took a deep breath: "Xuejiao, I have too much work now. Why don't you go back first? I'll go find you after I finish my work, okay?"

"Ah..." Xu Xuejiao was very reluctant.

She had come this time, the business wasn't settled, and she had a big fight with Lu Chengwen. She felt very dejected.

"Then call me later."

"Mm-hmm, I'll call you, call you."

Xu Xuejiao walked out, looking back every few steps. After a while, she returned.

"Do you want to help Leng Qingqiu?"

Lu Chengwen didn't expect her to stay. He groaned inwardly: "I don't, I just..."

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you do. Since this is your idea, I'll support you. I'll support you."

Lu Chengwen was confused: "How will you support me?"

"With money, of course."

"You have money?"

Xu Xuejiao laughed: "More than you think."

Lu Chengwen's mind was in complete disarray: "But... your father asked you to persuade me to join forces with him to acquire Qianfeng, but you want to help me protect Qianfeng... Aren't you afraid your father will be angry?"

"Not afraid!" Xu Xuejiao said with a smile: "If he gets angry, you can yell at him."

"Huh?"

"Aren't you very imposing?"

"I'm not... Please stay out of this. Let me think, let me think first."

Xu Xuejiao finally left.

As soon as she left, Lu Chengwen called Jiang Shihan: "Guard the door! No one is allowed to enter my office!"

"Yes."

Jiang Shihan watched Lu Chengwen rush into the lounge, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.

It seemed that Mr. Lu was going to have a secret rendezvous with Leng Qingqiu.

Alas, as expected, I'm just a secretary. The boss takes advantage of me when he likes meNorm, but in the end, he will marry a rich woman like Leng Qingqiu or Xu Xuejiao.

But it was my good fortune to be able to repay Mr. Lu. I had misunderstood him and wronged him so much over the years.

Although she felt a bit sour, Jiang Shihan was very self-aware of her position.

The CEO of a multi-billion dollar company wouldn't marry his secretary, nor would he have only one woman by his side for his entire life.

Lu Chengwen returned to the lounge and called softly: "Qingqiu? Qingqiu!"

She was gone!

Lu Chengwen felt puzzled. He checked the bathroom, the cloakroom, and the leisure room. She was nowhere to be found!

Lu Chengwen scratched his head: "Where is she? Did she fly away?"

Suddenly, a cabinet rotated and turned sideways. Leng Qingqiu emerged from within.

Lu Chengwen was utterly shocked: "Qingqiu!?"

Leng Qingqiu was naked. She blushed and said: "My towel, give it back."

"Oh."

Lu Chengwen hurriedly grabbed the towel and handed it to Leng Qingqiu. She wrapped herself in it and smiled at him:

"Lu Chengwen, you're something else! There's even a secret rendezvous suite inside?"

"Really?"

Lu Chengwen slapped his forehead, remembering.

During the initial design, there was indeed one.

Lu Chengwen walked in and couldn't help but smile wryly.

The Lu Chengwen of the past was indeed a man with a lot of mischievous thoughts.

The inner suite was decorated in a warm and romantic style, filled with an air of intimacy. It was fully equipped with various items that would make anyone blush, two large cabinets filled to the brim with such toys.

Within the secret room, there was another hidden door leading to a different walk-in closet. This closet belonged to the office originally intended for the Chief Secretary.

In other words, the former Lu Chengwen had envisioned his Chief Secretary as a beautiful woman, full of charm, and readily available for secret rendezvous in the hidden room through the walk-in closet.

Looking at this secret room, Lu Chengwen felt ashamed.

He couldn't find any other word to describe himself except "perverted".

"I had almost forgotten about this place."

Leng Qingqiu smiled, "You haven't had a Chief Secretary for the past three years. That office is empty. Why not get one?"

Lu Chengwen's face flushed red: "I... just at the beginning... it was a joke... Chief Secretary... I..."

Seeing Lu Chengwen stuttering, Leng Qingqiu laughed and kissed him: "I can be your Chief Secretary?"

"Huh? What?"

"I can be your Chief Secretary." Leng Qingqiu smiled, "When you're tired and want to relax, I'll sneak in here and have a secret rendezvous with you."

Lu Chengwen quickly said: "I've never done anything! After the renovation... I almost forgot this place existed."

"I know." Leng Qingqiu said, "No one has been in here. It's all dusty."

"Yes, yes."

"Let's have someone clean it up and we can play in here?"

"Who should I send?"

"How would I know? You're the boss, you decide."

Lu Chengwen closed the door to the secret room: "I'll have someone remove everything tomorrow and turn it into a storage room."

"Don't, keep it."

"Qingqiu, I'm not..."

"I know." Leng Qingqiu said seriously, "For the past three years, you haven't looked for other women. Besides work, you've given all your time to me."

Leng Qingqiu touched Lu Chengwen's face: "I must have been crazy for the past three years, blind to your affection."

Lu Chengwen smiled slightly: "Let's go out."

"No, weren't you quite passionate just now? I'm ready to lose myself to you."

Lu Chengwen pulled her hand away: "I was impulsive just now..."

"I can make you impulsive again..."

"Stop!" Lu Chengwen said, "I have an appointment with Huo Wendong. It's almost time."

"Huo Wendong?"

"Yes."

Lu Chengwen said, "I'm trying to find a way to buy back some shares from him. As long as our shares exceed 50%, Qianfeng will still be under your control."

Leng Qingqiu smiled gratefully: "Chengwen."

"Hmm?"

"Xu Xuejiao is right. Acquiring Qianfeng now is the best option. There's no other way."

"I won't do that."

"I know, I heard what you said. Chengwen, I could die happy hearing you say those words."

"Me too..."

Leng Qingqiu's eyes welled up with tears: "I've never met a man who would dote on me and protect me like this. Qianfeng isn't important to me anymore. You are my master, my man! As long as you are strong enough, I will always be the queen of Xuecheng, didn't you say that?"

"Yes, I did, but..."

"Don't hesitate." Leng Qingqiu said, "I'm willing to bet my life on you, without any regrets. My man, you must become the strongest in this city! First devour the Leng family, then the Xu family, the Chen family... Let us become your stepping stones. I'm willing!"

Lu Chengwen touched Leng Qingqiu's forehead.

[Is this girl head over heels in love? These are hardly the words of a CEO of a multi-billion dollar company!]

[Could she be running a fever?]

Leng Qingqiu looked at Lu Chengwen passionately: "Chengwen, I'm serious. From now on, I'm yours. Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it."

Lu Chengwen laughed: "Qingqiu, don't be so crazy. Do you understand me? Do you know what's in my heart? This is a manifestation of your lack of love. Because no one has ever cherished you, your approach to love is either aloof and distant or one of subservient, frenzied devotion for self-gratification. These are both undesirable..."

"Your pride stems from your fear of betrayal, making you hesitant to embrace a relationship wholeheartedly. Your frantic devotion comes from the fear of losing what you've gained, constantly worrying that you're not doing enough. These are irrational. You need to be yourself, live your own life..."

"Chengwen, I know what's in your heart. I understand you."

Lu Chengwen had no idea what she was talking about and laughed in exasperation.

"You're still too impulsive..."

Leng Qingqiu untied her towel herself.

The towel fell to the floor, and Leng Qingqiu stood before Lu Chengwen, completely exposed.

Lu Chengwen's words instantly caught in his throat, his eyes widening.
