Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Ambitious!

"Ugh, no, you can’t!"

"Xu Qianli, calm down. Even if you’re young, doing that sort of thing too much with men will definitely harm your body. You need to understand moderation."

"I’m your boss, and I’m older than you, so you have to listen to me. Let go of me already."

Sensing Xu Qianli’s intentions, Lan Qianrong became embarrassingly shy, terrified, and extremely nervous, urgently persuading him to stop.

Sadly, with passion clouding his mind and visions of Lan Qianrong’s captivating figure overwhelming him, Xu Qianli couldn’t bring himself to stop. After placing her on the couch, he quickly leaned in for a kiss, silencing Lan Qianrong’s incessant babbling lips and once again throwing her heart into turmoil.

Muttering to herself about her nemesis, Lan Qianrong simply went along with it, and soon the room echoed once more with sounds that made faces flush and hearts race, performing the most primitive of melodies.

When everything ended, Xu Qianli left Lan Qianrong’s office, thoroughly satisfied, after a long while.

Whistling as he walked away, Xu Qianli knew that from now on, there was no way he and Lan Qianrong could deny their connection.

He and Lan Qianrong were already involved, and after what just happened in the office, Lan Qianrong couldn’t put up her leadership front anymore.

Of course, Xu Qianli was very clear about his current standing in Lan Qianrong’s heart.

Having a relationship with her and enjoying pleasure and tenderness was one thing, but getting her to truly admire him was another.

To truly conquer a woman as aloof as Lan Qianrong, he knew he needed to rely on cunning and strength.

After all, most beauties adore the strong; few women don’t long for a man who is a conqueror, able to provide shelter and a sense of security with his powerful arms.

Xu Qianli made up his mind to climb higher, to climb as quickly as possible.

Returning to his own office with ambitions in his pocket, he busied himself until it was time to leave work.

Refusing several colleagues’ dinner invitations, Xu Qianli went home first.

He had dinner plans with Ji Xiaomeng later, so he went home to take a shower and change clothes.

Upon arriving home, Xu Qianli found someone in the living room; Xu Shuman was curled up on the couch, hugging her knees.

Looking closer, her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

Indifferent to Xu Shuman, Xu Qianli glanced at her and then entered his bedroom.

After a shower, just as he was getting dressed, someone suddenly rushed in—Xu Shuman ran in, tears in her eyes, and threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly.

"My love, I was wrong, I know I was wrong—scold me, hit me if you like, as long as you’re not angry, do whatever you want to me."

"I just ask for your forgiveness, please forgive me, I’m begging you."

"Woo woo woo, I really know I was wrong, I won’t do it again, please..."

Xu Shuman was sobbing and begging Xu Qianli for forgiveness, appearing utterly pitiful.

Facing such a person, Xu Qianli felt no ripple in his heart; he calmly pushed her away.

"I’ve just taken a shower; don’t dirty me!"

"As for apologizing and asking for forgiveness, forget it, I’m not angry, so there’s no question of forgiving you."

Xu Shuman said, "You’re not angry? Are you serious? My parents and brother went to the City Disciplinary Inspection Committee to falsely accuse you of coercing me, and I stupidly listened to their coaxing and kept silent, not clarifying for you; you’re really not blaming me, not angry with me?"

Xu Qianli gave a self-deprecating laugh and pointed to his own nose.

"I, Xu Qianli, may be foolish, but having been betrayed by you once, I already know what kind of person you are."

"I have never had any expectations for someone like you."

"Or rather, I’ve given up on you a long time ago."

"The only reason I let you be my plaything is simply that after dating you for three years, I’ve been quite satisfied with your performance in bed, and I just wanted to keep enjoying your body," he said.

"Don’t think that just because your parents and younger brother falsely accused me, and you stayed silent, making others believe I actually forced myself on you, that I’d be surprised or even disappointed if you had personally accused me," he continued.

"Because you are a woman who would do anything for profit!"

"Previously, you could kick me aside for profit, your boyfriend who had been heart-and-soul devoted to you for three years, and now for profit, you can stay silent even knowing I was falsely accused, burdening me with injustice; tomorrow, you could do something even more outrageous."

"But I must remind you that everyone’s patience has its limits; just because I’ve let it go today doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten what happened."

"If you follow me obediently in the future, and help me with my needs when I have them, I won’t shortchange you on the benefits I promised."

"But if you stir up any more trouble, I guarantee I’ll make you regret coming into this world!"

Having spoken with utter indifference, Xu Qianli picked out clothes to change into. After dressing without giving Xu Shuman a single glance, he quickly left.

He couldn’t be bothered to waste any more time on such a woman.

"Xu Qianli, you stop right there!"

Xu Shuman suddenly cried out and rushed over, tightly embracing him from behind.

"I was wrong, I’m truly sorry, but I didn’t mean to harm you maliciously."

"When Dad, Mom, and Qiangqiang went to wrongly accuse you, my silence wasn’t because I wanted to hurt you or I was greedy for benefits; it was just because I wanted to pressure you. I wanted you to come to me to force a reconciliation. I wanted to get back together with you, to be your girlfriend again."

"Darling, I know I made a terrible mistake, and you must be so disappointed and angry with me."

"You can hit me or scold me, but please don’t be so cold to me."

"You know, the way you were so calm just now really scared me from the bottom of my heart. I don’t like it when you treat me this way."

"When we broke up before, you were angry and frustrated, but at least you weren’t so aloof. This really scares me now."

"Please, even if you slap me, kick me, anything would be better than this."

"Wuwuwu..."

Xu Shuman started crying as she spoke.

Xu Qianli roughly peeled off her hands and vigorously pushed her away.

"I just put on these clothes, and you almost dirtied them!"

"Xu Shuman, I don’t have time to waste on you, nor am I interested in hearing your excuses."

"You’re well aware of what you’ve done; and you should be clear that my attitude towards you actually depends on what you’ve done to me!"

"Begging me for forgiveness, wanting me to treat you better, do you think you deserve it?"

With that said, Xu Qianli walked away, leaving with decisive steps.

After Xu Qianli had left, Xu Shuman couldn’t cry anymore and squatted on the ground, hugging her legs.

She regretted it. If she had known it would come to this, why did she ever do such things?

Now she had completely broken Xu Qianli’s heart, and he couldn’t even be bothered to lose his temper at her anymore; Xu Shuman knew there was no chance of winning back Xu Qianli’s heart.

Just then, Xu Lele’s room door opened, and she came out.

"Sis, I warned you before, but you wouldn’t listen. Regret is no use now," she said.

"But at least you’re still by Brother Xu’s side. Everyone has a heart made of flesh. If you truly treat him well and sincerely, would you worry that he won’t forgive you after one year, two years, three years, or five years?"

Hearing this, Xu Shuman’s eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, that’s all she could do now.
