Chapter 547: Accident
Chapter 547: Chapter 547: Accident
The previously helpless An Xin, though she didn\'t know how Yang Chen suddenly returned to Zhonghai, felt all her burdens lifted with her man\'s sudden appearance. Nestled in Yang Chen\'s arms, smelling his familiar scent, she calmed down and no longer feared Lu Min.
Lu Min knew that this display was meant for him, a blatant show of defiance. But he wasn\'t easily provoked. After all, he wouldn\'t have been placed in a high-level position at such a young age if he were impulsive. His family\'s background was essential, but he himself had to be competent enough not to embarrass them.
"So, you\'re Yang Chen. You look like a beggar. Is it possible that useless men like you use this ugly eccentricity to attract women?" Lu Min mocked.
Yang Chen glanced at his clothes and chuckled, "I get it, you\'re just jealous."
"Jealous? Ha, you clearly have no idea who you\'re talking to," Lu Min said arrogantly.
Yang Chen ignored him, instead placing a hand on An Xin\'s bottom, making her giggle.
Lu Min coldly smiled and looked at Yang Chen with interest. "A married man and a mistress. Do you think acting like this will make me feel embarrassed? Aren\'t you being too childish?"
"Whether you\'re embarrassed or not, I don\'t care. But this is my office, and I never said you could come in. If you don\'t leave now, I won\'t mind throwing you out the window," Yang Chen said with a smile, nodding toward the large floor-to-ceiling window behind him. He had little interest in talking to this guy.
This was a high-rise building; throwing someone out the window was essentially a death threat.
Lu Min didn\'t take it seriously. In his eyes, Yang Chen was just a small fry who didn\'t know his background and was only climbing up by clinging to women. He sneered, "Yang, do you think you\'re so great because you\'re with Lin Ruoxi? If you\'re smart, step aside and let An Xin come with me. She can have fun with me for a few days, and when I\'m done, I\'ll return her..."
Before Lu Min could finish, he suddenly felt a steel-like hand clutch his neck!
His body was lifted into the air, his legs flailing, unable to break free, his face turning red as he struggled to breathe!
Yang Chen\'s emotionless voice reached his ears, "I told you, if you don\'t leave, I\'ll throw you out. You really do talk too much..."
Lu Min couldn\'t fathom how Yang Chen had grabbed him. One moment everything was normal, the next he was in this situation, like a bad dream!
Hearing Yang Chen\'s words, a chilling realization dawned on Lu Min. This man seemed truly intent on throwing him out the window!
Yang Chen ignored Lu Min\'s frantic reactions. In his eyes, this man had no reason to continue living. Regardless of his background, even if he were the son of Yanxia\'s national leader, trying to take Yang Chen\'s woman in front of him was a death wish that Yang Chen was willing to grant.
An Xin\'s mouth hung open, her face full of shock. She never expected Yang Chen to act so decisively and actually attempt to throw Lu Min out the window!
"It\'s broad daylight. If a live person suddenly falls from dozens of floors up, it will not only disturb the pedestrians outside but also bring a lot of trouble to both you and Yulei International. Furthermore, Lu Min\'s background is not that of an ordinary official family. If you stir up a hornet\'s nest, no matter how extraordinary your background is, it might still cause serious problems!" An Xin hurriedly ran up and grabbed Yang Chen\'s arm, pleading, "Please don\'t do this. If you throw him out the window, it will put the company under a lot of social pressure. Think about Yulei International and its people."
Yang Chen paused, taken aback by her words. He hadn\'t considered the broader implications. Killing a nuisance to protect his woman was one thing, but he had momentarily forgotten that he was in the company, and his actions could implicate others.
Reflecting on this, Yang Chen sighed. This was the constraint of living in the secular world—having to consider others\' feelings. With a frustrated breath, he flung the nearly suffocating Lu Min into the corner, causing him to hit the wall face-first and start bleeding from his nose.
"Get lost and don\'t do anything that makes me want to kill you," Yang Chen said coldly, glaring at him.
Lu Min was genuinely terrified. He never expected someone would actually dare to try killing him! No one had ever treated him like this before. His eyes filled with hatred, he glanced at Yang Chen and An Xin, wiped the blood from his nose, and hurriedly ran out of the office, not caring about his disheveled appearance.
"Sigh, it looks like he won\'t let this go easily," An Xin said, clearly perceptive, sensing Lu Min\'s unresolved resentment.
Yang Chen gently caressed her fair, delicate face and pinched her lightly. "Your man came rushing back to Zhonghai, flying for over ten hours as soon as he got your call. Don\'t show me that worried face."
An Xin suddenly understood. No wonder she had just talked to Yang Chen on the phone last night and saw him this morning, looking travel-worn. He had immediately flown back from Paris after her call and came straight to her.
Feeling a rush of sweet emotions, as if her heart was filled with honey, An Xin gazed tenderly at Yang Chen. She threw her arms around him and buried her head in his chest.
Since their first meeting, Yang Chen had always been like a knight protecting her. Every time she faced danger, he would appear just in time to solve the problem effortlessly.
Some women try hard to become independent from men, but they often end up feeling lonely. It\'s not that they don\'t crave a safe harbor; they just haven\'t met the right person. An Xin had thought she would always be a drifting weed, destined to be a pawn in marriage alliances due to her father. But Yang Chen\'s presence had saved her from a dark and hopeless world.
"Thank you, hubby," An Xin murmured. "Even though it doesn\'t sound good to say it, I feel so happy being your lover."
Yang Chen, holding this little vixen by her slender waist, felt a sense of accomplishment hearing her say "happy." He playfully scolded, "Why didn\'t you tell me sooner? Lu Min has been pestering you for a while, hasn\'t he?"
Pouting in frustration, An Xin replied, "I thought I could handle it myself. He hadn\'t done anything too excessive, just kept bothering me. I didn\'t want to trouble you with my problems."
Yang Chen gave her a light slap on the rear, eliciting a startled yelp from her.
"Afraid of causing me trouble? If I hadn\'t come back in time, this wouldn\'t be a \'trouble\' but an \'accident.\'"
Seeing Yang Chen\'s displeased expression, An Xin, knowing part of it was feigned, still felt anxious. She pleaded, "Hubby, please don\'t be mad. I was hesitant because my dad told me that Lu Min\'s background is very formidable, and I was afraid it would bring you a lot of pressure. I didn\'t mean to hide it from you. Please calm down, okay? Next time, if anything like this happens, I\'ll tell you immediately."
Yang Chen understood that An Xin was mostly concerned for him. Even though he had shown her some of his abilities, it had been abroad, and everyone knew that Yanxia had a certain barrier from the international community. He needed to put on an act to ensure she wouldn\'t hesitate to tell him in the future.
In the past, having An Xin as his woman was partly due to male pride and possessiveness. However, over time, through work and daily life, this little vixen had taken a significant place in his heart. He truly didn\'t want her to suffer any harm.
Seeing Yang Chen still somewhat displeased, An Xin, worried he wasn\'t satisfied, bit her lip and lifted her head to kiss him near his lips. Her cheeks flushed, and her eyes were filled with watery affection and regret, trying to convey her apology and love.
What a temptress. Yang Chen\'s eyes burned with desire.
"Hubby, I..." An Xin said coquettishly, hesitating with shyness.
Yang Chen pinched her cheek with a mischievous smile. "I\'ve been on a plane for over ten hours, haven\'t showered all day, and I\'m filthy. And you, little temptress, still want to..."
"I don\'t mind. I\'m not afraid of dirt," An Xin giggled and kissed him lightly.
A shiver ran through Yang Chen\'s body, and any concerns about cleanliness vanished. He picked An Xin up and placed her on the large office desk.
