Hades, the Urban Legend

Chapter 295: Chapter 296: A Thought Emerges

Back at the Yulei International headquarters, Yang Chen took the elevator to the PR department's large office. It was afternoon, and many PR executives who were out meeting clients or discussing business were not around, leaving the office serene and quiet.

Yang Chen walked softly to the door of Liu Mingyu's office, head of the department. He turned the handle; the door wasn't locked, so he quietly entered and locked it behind him.

Liu Mingyu, who was usually serious and deeply engrossed in her work, had taken off her contact lenses and replaced them with large black-framed glasses. The glasses perched on her straight nose accentuated her attractive intellectual charm, especially against her contrasting black and fair skin, making her even more captivating.

Seeing Yang Chen suddenly burst into her office, Liu Mingyu was surprised, her pink lips slightly parted in an expression of confusion mixed with a hint of mature charm unique to an older woman.

Yang Chen approached Liu Mingyu from behind, his hands encircling her delicate neck. Her fair skin blushed slightly under his touch. Liu Mingyu wanted to evade, but hesitated; it was broad daylight, in her own office, and Yang Chen's body, sturdy as a tower, seemed to weigh heavily on her. She felt burdened and pressured, her breathing quickened, her eyes darting away.

"Why so quiet?" Yang Chen whispered close to Liu Mingyu's ear.

Liu Mingyu pursed her lips. "Would you let go if I said something?"

"No," Yang Chen replied bluntly.

"You came here just to do this?" Liu Mingyu hmphed.

Yang Chen chuckled, a bit shamelessly. If there had been a mirror in front of him, Yang Chen might have felt embarrassed himself. He leaned in and kissed Liu Mingyu's cheek before releasing her neck.

He took an SD card from his pocket and casually inserted it into Liu Mingyu's computer.

"Open the video files inside," Yang Chen instructed.

Liu Mingyu was puzzled, but she followed his direction, opened the folder, and clicked on the video file to play it.

Within three seconds, Liu Mingyu's face turned as pale as ripe fruit in autumn.

On the computer screen, two men and a woman were in a candid physical position, their conversation far from anything Liu Mingyu could have imagined.

"They are..."

"At noon, the client insisted on putting on a show for me. Isn't it entertaining?" Yang Chen chuckled.

Liu Mingyu turned her head, looking at Yang Chen with a mix of amusement and exasperation. "You orchestrated this, didn't you? Don't think I don't know. Minister Ma was played by you and eventually resigned."

Yang Chen recalled the day he saved Liu Mingyu and manipulated Minister Ma's affair with his mistress. It seemed like yesterday. Unexpectedly, within a few months, Liu Mingyu had become his lover—the woman Minister Ma had schemed to win over but ended up yielding to Yang Chen.

Liu Mingyu closed the video on her computer, removed the SD card, and handed it back to Yang Chen. "I've seen it. Keep it for yourself. I still have work to do. You can leave now."

Suddenly, Yang Chen's hand reached around Liu Mingyu's waist, gripping gently. Liu Mingyu let out a soft moan and turned to him. "What are you doing in the office?"

Though she knew the implications of Yang Chen sharing that video, Liu Mingyu was hesitant to escalate things in the office.

Yang Chen breathed heavily, leaning close to Liu Mingyu's ear. "I watched that show at noon and had a few drinks I shouldn't have. If you kick me out now, I might suffocate."

Liu Mingyu pushed Yang Chen's face away with a hint of annoyance. "So you just came here to satisfy your personal desires? Am I your plaything?"

Yang Chen looked at Liu Mingyu, slightly embarrassed. "How could you think that? It's just that I haven't been able to be with my little jade for a while. I miss her dearly."

"Sweet talk. Do you think I'll believe you? If you wanted me, why didn't you call? Don't expect to take advantage today. Besides, I'm sure your lover isn't just me. If you need satisfaction, find someone else. I have work to do. Get out!" Liu Mingyu dismissed him without buying his excuses.

Yang Chen glanced up and down at Liu Mingyu's black office suit, its low neckline revealing a white blouse underneath, adorned with pearl buttons that added to her allure.

Even if his actions were initially impulsive, now Yang Chen couldn't control the rush of male hormones, drawn by the beauty before him.

"Little Jade, where did you get this white blouse inside? It fits so well. The color and size are perfect," Yang Chen said, licking his lips.

When Liu Mingyu heard Yang Chen compliment her clothing, she didn't rush to push him out. "It's just an old piece. I've been wearing it because it's comfortable, not some fancy brand, though the material is cashmere."

Yang Chen sighed in admiration. "This outfit, paired with you, has the greatest benefit—it makes others have certain thoughts."

"What thoughts?" Liu Mingyu couldn't help but ask, thinking perhaps this rascal was about to praise her beauty.

Yang Chen chuckled mischievously. "When I see you in this outfit, I just want to unbutton all the buttons in the middle."

Liu Mingyu's hopeful expression turned into embarrassment. She slapped Yang Chen's chest in frustration and scolded him, "You rogue! I've told you not to harass me in the office! Get out, get out!"

Before Liu Mingyu could push Yang Chen away, he suddenly swept her up in his arms, lifting her high into the air...

In the solemn and tidy office, nearly an hour passed before Yang Chen finally released Liu Mingyu, who was almost in a semi-conscious state.

A confusing scent lingered in the air.

Yang Chen kissed Liu Mingyu's cheek and grinned. "Little Jade, do you want me to help you clean up with some tissues? I'd be happy to assist."

Liu Mingyu felt completely weak and relaxed, like she was floating on a cloud. But upon hearing Yang Chen's words, she nervously sat up and pouted, "No, I'll do it myself. What if you decide to come back? I might not survive here today."

Yang Chen's little game was exposed, so he awkwardly smiled and let the woman be.

Just then, a firm knock sounded on Liu Mingyu's office door!

The knocking made Liu Mingyu's heart leap to her throat. If someone discovered that she, a department head, was doing... that with a man in her office, how could she ever hold her head up in the company again?!
