The 45-minute-long kiss, just as Wang Xiaoqiang had hoped, significantly deepened their relationship. Xu Qingxue seemed quite attached to him. Even when several social calls came through, not even one close friend could persuade Xu Qingxue to leave.

The two strolled around Dragon Lake, exchanging sweet nothings in a small pavilion, as Wang Xiaoqiang hugged Xu Qingxue and whispered in her ear, "Little Xue, where am I staying tonight?"

"Stay at Qiao Mansion, of course. The Qiao Sisters are every man's favorite..."

"Seriously, I have nowhere to stay..." Wang Xiaoqiang played the sympathy card.

"I'm staying at my parents' place, you can stay at my apartment..." Xu Qingxue gently patted Wang Xiaoqiang's face as she spoke.

"No, Little Xue, can you really bear to leave me there alone?" Wang Xiaoqiang lamented with a sad expression.

"I've been with you all day, do I have to stay with you all night too?"

"Is that not possible?"

"Dream on. Go home and have Xia Guifang keep you company..." Xu Qingxue rolled her eyes.

"What a mood killer, why bring someone else up..." Wang Xiaoqiang rolled his eyes, "Fine, I'll go get a hotel room and maybe hit the dance halls tonight..."

"You dare, believe it or not, I'll have you arrested..." Xu Qingxue's eyes widened.

"Whatever, I'm not breaking the law... you can't do anything to me..." Wang Xiaoqiang retorted nonchalantly.

"Tonight I, I might..." Xu Qingxue seemed wavering.

Just then, the ringing of her phone interrupted them. Xu Qingxue took it out and saw it was from her office. A staff member reported that that afternoon, there had been a major burglary at the River City Champs-Élysées Villa involving three owners, with losses amounting to hundreds of millions. The police station was going to hold a major meeting to set up a task force, hence, as the deputy director, Xu Qingxue needed to attend.

"Little Qiang, something's come up at work, I have to go," Xu Qingxue said, somewhat reluctantly, then pulled out her keys and handed them to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Stay at my place tonight..."

"I have a place to stay," Wang Xiaoqiang said.

"Where are you staying?" Xu Qingxue glared, "Don't tell me you are going off to fool around with other women..."

Wang Xiaoqiang could only obediently accept the keys, saying, "Then can you make it back tonight?"

"Looks like I can't,"

"Uh, alright, then go. I'll wait for you at your place..." Wang Xiaoqiang declared earnestly,

Xu Qingxue kissed him on the cheek, "Don't wait up, just go to sleep."

After Xu Qingxue left, Xia Mi called, saying she had found someone for the company, a sister of hers, and asked Wang Xiaoqiang to come and meet her.

Wang Xiaoqiang rushed to Xia Mi's apartment, arriving to find a girl slightly younger than Xia Mi waiting for him. She had an attractive demeanor and was also somewhat familiar. As soon as they met, she reached out to introduce herself, "Boss Wang, hello. I'm Zhang Tianyuu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Uh, Zhang Tianyuu, hello. Have you done sales before?"

"Yes, since graduating from college, I have been working in sales, but only at small companies..."

"My company isn't big either," Wang Xiaoqiang said, "and the salary isn't that high. Would you consider that?"

"I've made up my mind. Actually, Boss Wang, I came because of your reputation," Zhang Tianyuu said, "I heard from Sister Xia Mi that your products sell well, and most importantly, you don't encourage treating clients with drinks. That's why I want to work with you..."

"Yes, Tianyuu is very capable. She hasn't achieved much over the years just because she sticks to her principles," Xia Mi affectionately patted Zhang Tianyuu on the shoulder and said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Boss, you know, in sales, sometimes you can't avoid having to entertain clients with drinks. Of course, some more predatory clients might take advantage, or even try to sexually exploit the sales staff. Little Yuu has forgone many opportunities just to keep her dignity intact..."

"Boss Wang, in my previous job, the bosses encouraged us to please clients, sometimes even suggesting that for the sake of business we should sacrifice our bodies, with offers of raises and promotions. Some girls were half-forced into it by clients, but I refused all such requests..." Zhang Tianyuu said.

"Hmm, Tianyuu, you are a good girl; I appreciate that. Since you have no objections, you'll work with me from now on. Xia Mi will fill you in on the details, and you two can divide the work. Xia Mi, you're the senior here, so don't bully the newcomer..."

"Big brother, we're close sisters, how could I possibly bully her?... I'll take good care of her..." Xia Mi quickly responded before Wang Xiaoqiang could finish.

"I couldn't ask for more," Wang Xiaoqiang spread his hands, "since Tianyuu is new to the company, I'll treat you both to dinner tonight..."

"You're so generous, Boss..." Xia Mi chirped, immediately hooking her arm in Wang Xiaoqiang's.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang giving her such attention, Zhang Tianyuu also smiled happily, her charming dimples appearing.

"Hey, be a gentleman..." Wang Xiaoqiang said as he saw her suddenly cling to him and was also worried that the new employee, Zhang Tianyu, might judge him, the boss. He struggled to free his arm. "If you keep this up, I'm not inviting you anymore..."

"Don't run away; Tianyu, come help me..." Xia Mi winked at Zhang Tianyu.

Zhang Tianyu hesitated for a moment, then came over and clung to Wang Xiaoqiang's left arm.

Wang Xiaoqiang had never seen such a scene before, and his body stiffened up instantly.

"Hey, we're all hungry, let's go eat... hee hee..." Xia Mi said, dragging Wang Xiaoqiang outside.

Once outside, Wang Xiaoqiang was still being clung to by the two girls, drawing a lot of attention from the residents in the community. It was common for young men and women to hold hands, but being clung to by two beautiful girls was a bit unusual, and the eyes of the crowd were filled with insinuations: Could this be a harmonious love triangle?

Feeling the gaze of the public, Wang Xiaoqiang was very uncomfortable, but the two girls didn't care at all and directly escorted him to a wooden hut barbecue outside. Wang Xiaoqiang saw that the two women were escorting him as if kidnapping him and initially thought they were going to drag him to a fancy hotel to have a lavish meal at his expense. Instead, they chose a wooden hut barbecue, which could be quite a luxurious meal for a worker, but for him, it was just a regular family meal, and at most, it would cost a few hundred yuan!

However, the wooden hut barbecue was booming with business. Seeing it packed with people, Wang Xiaoqiang frowned and was about to leave, but seeing that the two girls seemed quite keen on this place, he reluctantly decided to wait for a table. Finally, they managed to get a table, but to their dismay, it was snatched up by two plump guys who had just arrived.

One bald guy comfortably sat down and said to the other plump guy, "Haha, early arrivals are no match for timely ones, Old Feng, just look at our luck, it's unusually good..."

"Hey, you guys really know how to grab seats; we've been waiting for a long time, there should be some order of first-come, first-served..." Xia Mi saw the seat they had waited for a long time being rudely occupied by the two plump guys and immediately frowned and scolded.

"Hey, beautiful, the seat doesn't have your name on it, how can you claim it's yours..." The bald plump guy smiled smugly at Xia Mi, and when he realized he was facing a beautiful woman, his eyes involuntarily narrowed as he stared intensely at Xia Mi's ample chest.

"Hey, boss, boss, come here for a second," Xia Mi glared hard at the plump guy and waved at the shop owner behind the cash register.

As Xia Mi lived nearby and often ate barbecue here, the shop owner recognized her and came over upon hearing her call.

"Boss, we've been waiting for a long time for a seat, and they snatched it from us, isn't there any rule about this..."

The owner, seeing the situation, also felt helpless. There were no such rules in a small barbecue shop – whoever grabbed a seat first got the seat. Besides, everyone who came to eat was a customer; he couldn't just throw customers out. With a troubled expression, he said, "Miss Xia, could you wait a bit longer? There will be seats available soon..."

"Cut it out, we've been waiting so long, our legs are hurting from standing. How can you expect us to wait longer..." Displeased that the owner wasn't "serving justice," Xia Mi coldly dropped the line and was about to leave.

"Hey, beautiful, why don't you sit with us? It's our treat... hehe..." The other plump guy's eyes darted around Xia Mi's voluptuous figure like radar, as he generously offered.

"Pah, not interested..." Xia Mi spurted out and was about to pull Wang Xiaoqiang and Zhang Tianyuu away when, unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoqiang showed no signs of leaving. Instead, he said to Xia Mi, "Little Mi, since they are offering with good intention, why don't you just sit down..."

"Hmpf, you sit if you want, two detestable guys, I'd rather skip a meal than sit with them..." Xia Mi replied irritably.

"Hmpf, my legs hurt from standing, I'm going to sit first," said Wang Xiaoqiang as he rudely took a seat at the table of two chubby guys. The table was square, with the two chubby guys sitting opposite each other, each occupying one side, leaving two sides. Wang Xiaoqiang took one side, and there was room for only one more person.

As Wang Xiaoqiang sat down, he gave Zhang Tianyu a wink, signaling her to sit opposite him. Although Zhang Tianyuu was younger than Xia Mi, she had been in sales for many years and was much better at reading situations than Xia Mi. Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's gesture, she said, "Miss Xia, just sit down, eat our own things, we won't bother each other..." As she spoke, Zhang Tianyuu lifted her stiff legs and sat down opposite Wang Xiaoqiang.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang sit down, the two chubby guys showed hostility in their eyes, but when Zhang Tianyuu sat down, they shifted their gaze to her, and at that moment, they did not hide their lewd stare, "Haha... That's right, beauty, order whatever you like, I'll foot the bill..."

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang and Zhang Tianyuu both sitting down, although Xia Mi was resentful towards the two for being completely shameless, she couldn't leave them behind either. Now, with people sitting on all four sides of the table, there was no seat left for her, making her position very awkward.

Just then, Wang Xiaoqiang waved her over, "Little Mi, come sit on my lap..."

Xia Mi gritted her teeth and walked over, sitting on Wang Xiaoqiang's lap, her gaze provocatively staring at the two chubby guys, "You're not planning on leaving anytime soon, are you? I'll gross you out to death..."

Sure enough, seeing this scene, the two chubby guys felt a mix of jealousy towards Wang Xiaoqiang and discomfort within themselves. They had initially hoped to have two beauties to join them for drinks, but instead, she had sat on someone else's lap.

The more uncomfortable the two chubby guys felt, the more Xia Mi wanted to tease them, looping an arm around Wang Xiaoqiang's neck, and affectionately resting her head on his shoulder, "Brother Qiang, treat me to some grilled sausages..."

Her spoiled little demeanor and her cutesy voice disgusted the two chubby guys. Nevertheless, having fought hard for their seats, naturally, they didn't want to leave. They still stubbornly stayed put, shifting their attention to Zhang Tianyuu, "Little sister, big brother will treat you to some grilled sausage, how about it?"

"Gentlemen, would you behave like this outside if your wives and children knew about it?" Zhang Tianyuu responded coldly.

Poked where it hurt, the faces of the two chubby guys changed, both appearing very dejected and yelled at Zhang Tianyuu, "Scram, go away..."

But no sooner had they shouted than they both felt a sudden sharp pain in their privates, as if something had crawled into their trousers. They then clutched their groins and started jumping and shouting...

"Damn it, what's biting me..."

"Boss, boss, there are bugs in your place..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
