My Ares Son-in-Law

Seeing this, Lin Youya couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the eyes of others, promotion, salary increase, and power are undoubtedly the things they dream of, but Xiao Chen in front of him didn't care about it at all, and even avoided it.

She sighed in her heart, such a mentality is rare in today's fiercely competitive society. She looked at Xiao Chen with more admiration and understanding in her eyes, as if to say: "In this fast-paced era, it is not easy to maintain such a mentality of being indifferent to fame and fortune."

"No matter what, Wang Xiong seems to be trying to win you over," Lin Eya's voice was mixed with a barely perceptible worry. She stared at Xiao Chen, her eyes containing both reminders and concern.

"In this complex workplace and power game, if you are unwilling to submit to him, he may really deal with you at all costs. People's hearts are unpredictable. You must be more careful in the future and don't trust anyone easily."

Hearing this, Xiao Chen waved his hand gently, a confident smile appearing on the corner of his mouth, with a bit of unruly and indifferent in that smile.

"This doesn't sound like something a boss would say to his bodyguard," he said with a smile, a hint of joking in his tone, "In my opinion, this is more like a reminder between friends. But don't worry, in this world, the person who can really hurt me is probably not born yet. I know my limits and will protect myself."

Lin Youya looked at Xiao Chen's confident look, feeling both relieved and helpless. She knew Xiao Chen's strength and believed in his ability, but in this world full of uncertainties, who can fully predict the future? She sighed softly, stood up, and prepared to leave.

"Well, since you know what's going on, I won't say any more." There was a hint of disappointment in Lin Youya's voice. She wanted to stay a little longer and talk to Xiao Chen, but seeing how focused he was, she didn't want to bother him any more. "I'm leaving first. Take care of yourself."

Xiao Chen raised his head, looked at Lin Youya gently, and nodded gently in response. A trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes. He was not indifferent to Lin Youya's concern, but he knew that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy and he could not afford to slack off.

Lin turned around gracefully, and walked towards the door with a slightly heavy step, and a ripple in her heart could not help but appear. She looked back at Xiao Chen, and saw that he lowered his head again, carefully checking the information in his hand. His concentration and persistence made her admire and feel distressed.

She shook her head gently, sighed, and could only leave the room slowly with a hint of disappointment and helplessness.

"Take care, I won't see you off." Xiao Chen's voice came from behind, brief but warm. He didn't look up, but continued to bury his head in his work, because he knew that whether it was the mystery of the Prison Clan or Jiang Meng's affairs, they were like a web of thousands of threads that he needed to sort out one by one without any delay.

"Bad guy!" When Lin Youya was about to step out of the room, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and stomped her feet lightly at Xiao Chen's back, with a tone of coquettishness and helplessness.

Her cheeks flushed slightly and her eyes flashed with complex emotions. This was the first time she expressed her dissatisfaction so directly, and it was also the first time she began to doubt whether her charm was enough to attract the attention of this man.

She wondered in her heart, is this guy a man? Facing her reminders and concerns, he was so calm and composed, as if nothing was surprising.

Was she really so unattractive that he wouldn't even say a word to keep her? Thinking of this, Lin Youya couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she quickly shook her head and put these distracting thoughts behind her.

She knew that Xiao Chen had his own world and pursuits, and his heart was probably filled with more important things. Although she longed for his attention and recognition, she was also willing to respect his choice and support him silently. After all, true charm lies not only in the attractiveness of appearance, but also in the understanding and support of the heart.

So, Lin Youya took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Chen again, then turned around resolutely, took a step, and left the room firmly. Although there was a trace of regret in her heart, she was more looking forward to and confident about the future.

……

On the other side, Wang Xiaodao treated his wound urgently and bandaged it briefly, then returned to Dadao Company with fatigue and fear. The sunlight shone through the half-open curtains on his slightly pale face, but it was difficult to dispel the haze in his heart.

Wang Dadao sat behind a large desk, tapping his fingers on the table, making a rhythmic sound that formed a sharp contrast with the depressing atmosphere in the room.

He stared at Wang Xiaodao who had just returned. His eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, and at this moment they were flashing with complex emotions - anger, doubt, and a hint of imperceptible worry.

"Interesting," Wang Dadao spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful, every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "He means that if I don't take care of that employer myself, he will deal with me at all costs? Humph, what a big tone!"

His words revealed a strong sense of ruthlessness and unwillingness, as if he was an enraged beast ready to attack.

Wang Dadao was furious when he recalled the failure of this operation. He had carefully planned and sent out the most elite personnel in the company, thinking that he could easily succeed, but he unexpectedly encountered an unprecedented setback. The news of the annihilation of the entire army was like a bolt from the blue, which made him feel unprecedented frustration.

"Brother, you...you have to think twice." Wang Xiaodao's voice was trembling. He tried to calm his inner fear and reminded again, "That person, he...he is really too strong. I have never seen such terrible power. We...we really shouldn't provoke him again."

Wang Xiaodao's words were full of awe of the unknown and concern for the safety of his brothers.

However, Wang Dadao just looked at him coldly, with a flash of disdain in his eyes. "Waste!" He spit out two words contemptuously, as if he was mocking Wang Xiaodao's weakness and retreat.

"You have seen a few real masters, so you presumptuously think that we can't afford to offend that person? How ridiculous! In this circle, only the strong can survive, and the weak deserve to be eliminated!"

After saying that, Wang Dadao stood up abruptly, his eyes sharp as torches, scanning the empty room, as if looking for the next target to be dispatched.

"Where are the others? Call them all here. I will personally arrange it this time. I will never let such a thing happen again!" His tone was full of determination and ruthlessness, as if he had made up his mind to completely eliminate the enemy who had caused him heavy losses. (End of this chapter)
