Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: Burning with Rage!

Her begging couldn't calm Yu Aotian's rage — just like two years ago when she provoked him.

Yu Aotian grabbed her hair and forced her down, his cold eyes locking onto her lips.

What is he planning to do? Terrified, Yaoyao shut her eyes. It was the first time she had seen a man like this.

"Heh, you think closing your eyes will help?" Yu Aotian sneered and forced her mouth open.

That bastard... was he really going to do it?

No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't escape his strength. Nausea rushed through her, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Meanwhile, satisfaction slowly crept across Yu Aotian's face. But then, his eyes caught the blinking red light of a surveillance camera.

Damn it! His face turned cold in an instant. He shoved her away, zipped up, and stormed out of the elevator.

Surveillance Room

"Crap!" Long Qi saw Yu Aotian heading his way and bolted from the room.

"Manager Long, what's wrong?" The staff stared at him, confused.

"Don't ask! If the President comes, say I've been in a meeting."

Bang! The door was kicked open.

Everyone turned to the entrance.

"P-President Yu..." They stood up and bowed in fear.

Yu Aotian ignored them, walked straight to Long Qi, grabbed him by the neck, and dragged him into the office.

"Aotian, I'm sorry! I was wrong. But please, so many people are watching..." Long Qi pleaded.

Yu Aotian squinted coldly and glanced at the blinking camera. "Tsk, you really are sick, Long Qi."

"Yes, yes, I won't do it again. But... it wasn't all my fault."

Yu Aotian's face darkened. "So it's mine?"

"N-No! That's not what I meant. Aotian, please let go, I can't breathe."

Yu Aotian finally loosened his grip and sat on the couch.

Long Qi, catching his breath, asked, "I was just curious... why are you so obsessed with that flat-chested girl? You've had countless beautiful women. It can't just be because she mistook you for a gigolo two years ago, right?"

Yu Aotian smirked. "Want to know?"

"Yeah!"

"Come here."

Long Qi quickly leaned in.

But instead of an answer...

"Ouch!"

Yu Aotian pinched his ear hard. "Mind your own business. If you're bored, go clean the service department."

"Tch, so stingy." Long Qi rubbed his ear, glancing at the monitor. "Hey, where's she going?"

Yu Aotian rushed over and saw Yaoyao running out of the elevator, wiping her tears.

Outside, Yaoyao kept crying while spitting, trying to rid herself of the humiliation.

Barely twenty, she had no power to resist this.

Twice today, Yu Aotian had left midway. She didn't know why, but her luck couldn't save her forever.

"I can't let this go on. That bastard must pay!"

With that thought, she rushed out of the elevator.

On the 42nd floor, she stood in front of the security office door and slowly pushed it open.

"Excuse me, is the manager here?"

The moment she stepped inside, the male staff stared at her, eyes lighting up.

"Whoa, she's so cute!"

"Must be an elevator girl. How come I've never seen her before?"

"Forget it, she's probably the manager's girlfriend."

Her innocent looks made the whole office stir.

"Miss, are you looking for our manager?" one asked.

She forced a smile. "Yes, it's urgent. Could you please take me to him? I'm Luo Yaoyao from the service department."

"Sure, wait a moment." The man, unusually eager, rushed into the office.

"President Yu, Manager Long, sorry to disturb. There's a Miss Luo Yaoyao asking for you."

"Luo Yaoyao?" Long Qi frowned, grabbed a newspaper, and walked over.

"Do you report every pretty girl to me? I don't even know her! What, trying to suck up just because she's cute?" He hit the man's head with the newspaper.

Long Qi was known for his bad temper despite his young age.

"S-Sorry, Manager Long, I understand."

"Wait." Yu Aotian, still sitting calmly, spoke.

"Long Qi, if she's asking for you by name, it must be important. You should see her."

Hearing that, Long Qi's mind raced. Yu Aotian never cared about department matters — unless this girl meant something.

"Alright. Xiao Wang, tell the others to clock out. I'll meet her."

"Yes, sir."
