My gorgeous wife

Chapter 343: Chapter 320: Building Explosion

Arriving at the company, the receptionist greeted Li Chen, who smiled and nodded in return. He remembered how when he first came here, this same receptionist refused to believe he was Lin Yi’s husband.

However, now, unexpectedly, pretense had turned into reality, and that agreement had come true.

Li Chen touched his nose, having earned himself a beautiful wife for nothing. It seemed his luck with women had continued since returning to Huaxia. Had he known it would be like this, there was no need to go abroad. He should have stayed in Huaxia, where by now he might have been surrounded by beauties.

Upon reaching the laboratory, everyone was already bustling about intensely. The work of a perfumer in creating fragrances was extremely challenging!

Because even minor changes in the formula could result in a different final scent, one always had to strive for perfection. Behind every finished perfume was definitely a variety of fragrance samples.

The extent of this hard work was akin to an author still furiously typing away at midnight.

Entering the laboratory, Li Chen only heard a series of shouts.

"Go, bring over the A1 perfume."

"Don’t mix up the perfumes on that table!"

"Bring me the documents from the table; I feel like there’s an issue here."

In the midst of this lively department, Li Chen touched his nose and took a seat at his own spot, feeling a bit guilty about how busy they all looked. But he quickly shrugged off this feeling!

Damn, he had also put in a lot of hard work. Just think, the process of pursuing Lin Yi had not been easy. Now, having finally secured both the beauty and the company, the company was Lin Yi’s, and Lin Yi was his, so naturally, the company was his as well.

He really did have a keen eye.

Li Chen watched everyone toil away, and several employees, seeing him like this, couldn’t help but give a wry smile. Comparing oneself to others could be downright disheartening.

At that moment, Wang Qianqian came over. Surprised to see Li Chen, she exclaimed, "Brother Cheen?"

"Are you that surprised to see me?" Li Chen said, exasperatedly.

With a smile and covering her small mouth, Wang Qianqian replied, "It’s not that. I just thought you wouldn’t be coming to the office today. You’re always so unpredictable."

Wang Qianqian helped fetch some documents. Li Chen glanced at her, noting that today she was wearing grey stockings, of a netted design no less, very seductive.

Indeed, these kinds of stockings were absolutely tempting. No, he had to find someone to try this with.

Li Chen’s thoughts instantly heated up as he looked at Wang Qianqian with different eyes. He had wanted to bed Wang Qianqian for a while now, and having previously seen those stockings and panties at her place, in all sorts of varieties, the idea of playing a seduction game with Wang Qianqian was thrilling to him.

With that in mind, Li Chen firmed up his resolve to bed Wang Qianqian.

No matter what, he must have Wang Qianqian.

"Qianqian, are you free today?" Li Chen asked with a mischievous grin.

Wang Qianqian’s beautiful eyes shifted as her face blushed slightly. Just as she was about to speak, someone inside called out again.

With that, Wang Qianqian had to go back in and continue helping.

Li Chen shook his head, feeling utterly frustrated.

Li Chen sat at his desk, and at that moment, his phone rang.

He stepped out of the laboratory and answered the call. It was from Xuu Hedong.

"Ah, young man, I really want to thank you. My Xuu Fang’s illness is cured."

Over there, Xuu Hedong was already beside himself with excitement. He hadn’t expected the cure to be real, as he was originally a skeptic. But after coming to the hospital for a checkup, the doctors couldn’t find anything wrong; Xuu Fang had no illnesses and everything was normal.

Li Chen smiled slightly, "As long as she’s well, that’s what matters."

"No way, young man, I have to properly thank you," Xuu Hedong said excitedly on the other side. "My old classmate was mercilessly mocking me, calling me ignorant. I hope you didn’t take it to heart what I said before."

"Of course not," Li Chen laughed, "I don’t even remember what Uncle said before."

"Haha," Xuu Hedong also laughed, "All right then, when are you free? I’d like to take you out for a meal."

"Uncle, I’m really busy lately, so let’s skip the meal. Good intentions are enough."

"How can that be?" Xuu Hedong furrowed his brow, "You’ve done me such a huge favor. Rest assured, you’ll have at least 100 red packets when you get married, and if there’s anything you need, just tell me and I’ll buy it for you straightaway. Oh, it’s a pity you already have a girlfriend, otherwise, giving Fang’er to you wouldn’t be a bad idea."

The latter part of his sentence was very soft, but Li Chen heard it and just gave a bitter smile. Ah, to be too outstanding had its downsides—why else would every person he met want to marry their daughter off to him?

It seems that being excellent like this is tiring too, but let all this fatigue and hardship be borne by me alone.

Li Chen was about to speak when suddenly, the entire building shook as though it trembled momentarily.

This tremble was so abrupt, as if the foundations of the building had shaken. Everyone inside felt as if they could barely stand and were about to fall over.

But as quickly as the shaking had come, it left. Within a second or so, no one could feel the tremble anymore.

All the employees looked around with surprised expressions, staring at the ceiling and the walls, wondering what had just happened. Was it an illusion? But glancing at their colleagues’ bewildered faces, it was clearly not just in their minds.

On Li Chen’s side, his body swayed slightly, but he quickly readjusted. By the time he looked closely again, the shaking had already stopped.

"It’s probably just an illusion. Let’s get back to work," said one of the employees, shaking their head.

"It’s not an illusion, it really shook," argued another.

"So what if it did? It’s not like the building’s going to collapse, is it?"

With that said, the others also felt it made sense. How could the building possibly collapse?

Li Chen, standing in the corridor, suddenly narrowed his eyes. Something was wrong—this feeling was off!

The building wouldn’t shake without reason, and this kind of shaking was all too familiar to him from his time as a mercenary.

When attacking enemies holed up in a building, they would often blow up the building directly. One of the premonitions before an explosion was exactly like this!

Li Chen’s sense of danger surged, and at that moment, a sudden "crash" sound came!

Turning his head, that was unmistakably the sound of glass shattering outside, accompanied by a thunderous roar.

"Boom!"

The violent sound of an explosion came through, seemingly from the lower part of the building. The explosive roar went through several floors, reaching the ears of the employees above.

"What’s going on?" The employees began to panic.
