The next morning, Jiang Luyao followed Qiao Mucheng to the empire headquarters as usual.

After this period of time, Qiao Mucheng has gotten used to having a shadow-like presence around him every day when he enters and exits the company.

He, who has always been a loner, actually felt that this feeling was not bad.

As soon as he entered the headquarters building, Jiang Luyao immediately noticed that the surrounding atmosphere was not right.

Although the lobby on the first floor has always been forbidden to make noise, it is usually not so quiet.

The employees who came to work hurried towards the elevator, not even daring to say a word to each other, as if they were afraid of something.

And Jiang Luyao soon noticed the culprit of all this - a familiar figure was sitting on a European-style sofa in the VIP lounge area on the window side of the hall.

Near the sofa, there were more than a dozen bodyguards wearing black suits and full of murderous aura, standing respectfully in a row, tightly protecting the people on the sofa.

The manager in charge of the reception poured tea for the distinguished guest himself, and then stood aside respectfully, waiting for orders.

If this scene is seen by people who don't know the truth, I'm afraid they will think that the underworld is going to meet here. No wonder it will cause such a sense of oppression to those employees.

Jiang Luyao couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Every time he appeared on stage, he made such a big show, so what?She also pretended to bring so many bodyguards, and she really couldn't think of any other use for them besides acting as a show.

I saw Zhuang Huici sitting gracefully on the sofa, holding the tea handed to her by the manager in his hand, as soon as it came close to his mouth, he frowned and put down the cup.

"It's too hot. Don't you know that the water temperature for making tea should not exceed 80 degrees? You can also be a manager with such qualities? I think it's better to find a more professional person to do it well." Zhuang Huici said arrogantly.

The female manager panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, ma'am! I'll go and change a pot of tea for you right now, don't be angry!"

"Forget it!" Zhuang Huici didn't even look at her, "Anyway, I'm not here for tea today."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked towards Jiang Luyao's direction.

From the first moment he saw her, Jiang Luyao knew that she came here with bad intentions today.

Kang Yatong just resigned yesterday, and she came here today, apparently for this very reason.

Seeing her approaching aggressively, Qiao Mucheng stood in front of Jiang Luyao and asked, "You came to the company to look for me suddenly, what's the matter?"

Zhuang Huici was heading towards Jiang Luyao, but when he saw him come out to block the front, his expression darkened.

"You get out of the way!"

Qiao Mucheng remained motionless, "Just tell me if you have anything to say."

Looking at the tall figure in front of him, Jiang Luyao was in a daze for a moment, feeling a huge sense of security inexplicably.

But she has never been a timid character, even Zhuang Huici openly provoked her, so of course she would not just hide behind Qiao Mucheng like this.

So she walked out from behind him, and asked Zhuang Huici with a smile: "Mrs. Kang, are you looking for me?"

Unexpectedly, the moment she showed up, Zhuang Huici didn't even say a word, and directly waved at her extremely fast.

Jiang Luyao had just stood still, and before she had time to react, the slap was about to land on her face.

This is the most densely populated place of the Imperial Headquarters. As the wife of the president, if someone slaps you in public here, you will lose all your face.

She only had time to yell inwardly, and she already felt Zhuang Huici's palm on her cheek.

It was too late to hide, she subconsciously closed her eyes.

However, the expected slap did not fall, she opened her eyes strangely, only to see Zhuang Huici's hand stopped less than an inch away from her cheek.

It was Qiao Mucheng who stopped her slap from falling.

Zhuang Huici's wrist was firmly held in his palm, and his knuckles were a little white due to the force.

"It happened once and I won't let it happen again."

Qiao Mucheng's voice was cold, unable to detect any emotion.

Because of his actions, the bodyguards around Zhuang Huici immediately surrounded him, as if they wanted to protect the Lord.

Qiao Mucheng didn't care about this at all, and glanced over coldly, those bodyguards immediately froze in place, not daring to act rashly again.

After all, this is his territory. To put it bluntly, in front of him, those bodyguards are really just decorations.

"Okay, you're protecting her openly, aren't you?" Zhuang Huici said with anger on his face.

Qiao Mucheng's expression remained calm, as if this was just an ordinary thing. "My wife, if I don't protect her, who will protect her?"

One sentence made both of them stunned, Zhuang Huici never expected that he would be so disrespectful to her in front of the whole company.

Jiang Luyao was suddenly moved by his words.

Putting aside all grievances and entanglements, just his words are enough to make any woman's heart move.

No matter who she was facing, he would stand in front of her without hesitation, because she was his wife.

If only everything were really that simple.

After a brief trance, Jiang Luyao quickly returned to reality.

With Qiao Mucheng in front of her, she became even more unscrupulous.

"Mrs. Kang came to someone else's property early in the morning to beat up the hostess. She seems quite angry. Can I ask, how did I offend you?"

Her mouth has always been unforgiving, and she has the advantage at this time, so of course she will not let this opportunity pass.

Zhuang Huici saw that the slap couldn't last no matter what, so she pulled her wrist back from Qiao Mucheng's hand with all her strength.

"It seems that I underestimated you before. What method did you use to force Yatong away from Mucheng in such a short period of time? I would like to ask you, what is it about her that hinders you?" , let you drive her away so urgently?"

Sure enough, it was for this matter, Jiang Luyao sneered.

"I don't understand what you said. Ms. Kang resigned on her own initiative. Before that, I didn't have any conflicts with her. How can I be blamed? Besides, she is the vice president, and I I'm just a little assistant to the president, what do you think I can do to force her away?"

Zhuang Huici rolled her eyes to the sky, and was about to speak, but Qiao Mucheng took the first step.

"If you have anything else to say, come to my office. Otherwise, don't say it. I don't want to play with you."

After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave with Jiang Luyao, but Zhuang Huici didn't move at all.

"Is there anything shameful that can't be said here? Or... is there anything shameful about the relationship between the two of you?"

Hearing her eccentric tone, Qiao Mucheng stopped in his tracks, and his eyes turned cold.

Jiang Luyao wanted to choke back, but Qiao Mucheng grabbed his arm and pulled him back. Then he walked up to Zhuang Huici himself, and said calmly, "Okay, since you insist on talking here, then please go ahead."

Zhuang Huici was stunned for a moment, and then asked the question she wanted to ask: "Why did you force Yatong away?"

Qiao Mucheng remained expressionless: "She resigned herself."

Zhuang Huici sneered: "If it wasn't for the two of you working together to deal with her, why would she resign?"

"Think too much, this is my company, if I want to fire someone, I only need one sentence, I don't need to spend so much thought."

"Then what did you tell her on her birthday? Why was she so depressed when she got home?"

"No matter how you look at it, I don't need to be responsible for her emotions. It's your own business to care about your daughter."

Once back and forth, Qiao Mucheng answered without hesitation, and did not leave any room for Zhuang Huici.

Before that, for the sake of her being his mother, he tried his best to tolerate her unreasonable demands most of the time.It's just that now she is getting more and more aggressive, and his patience has finally reached its limit.

They stood in the center of the hall and spoke without deliberately lowering their voices, so the employees coming and going could almost hear what they said.

With such a big incident happening at the president's house, the employees naturally wanted to watch the excitement.But due to Qiao Mucheng's majesty, he didn't dare to look too clearly, so he could only try to slow down and stay in the lobby on the first floor, wanting to watch it for a while.

Zhuang Huici didn't expect Qiao Mucheng to be so rude to her, he was stunned for a while, and asked in disbelief, "What's your attitude? Treating your mother like this for a woman?"

This was exactly what Qiao Mucheng was worried about. Even if it was just for the sake of reputation, he didn't want to be called unfilial, so he tolerated Zhuang Huici in every possible way.

However, in the current situation, if he endured it any longer, it would be too useless.

"If you respect me a foot, I will pay you back, and vice versa. Also, Jiang Luyao is not just any woman, she is my wife. There is nothing shady about my relationship with her. Her name is Written on my marriage certificate, if anyone has any doubts about this and maliciously slanders my wife, I will not show mercy."

Jiang Luyao was still immersed in his domineering oppression, and before he recovered, he felt warm in his palm, and was tightly held by a big hand, pulling her to turn around and leave.

"Mucheng! Are you saying these words today to break up with me?" Zhuang Huici stopped him and asked.

Qiao Mucheng said without turning his head, "I will leave the choice to you, and it is up to you."

After finishing speaking, he took Jiang Luyao's hand and strode towards the elevator.

The onlookers gave way to him one after another, and they were several meters away, feeling overwhelmed by the aura emanating from him, so they didn't dare to breathe out.

Some even whispered in private: "The president is so handsome! A man who defends his wife in front of his mother is really touching!"

"But that's his mother after all, isn't that a bit..."

"What do you know? Madam made it clear today that she came here to trouble her. If the CEO doesn't protect his wife, she will be bullied miserably. What he did today is what a man should do!"

"That's right!"
