Chapter 523: Chapter 523: I Just Like You, Handsome Man!

President Li, who was pursuing Xia Chenyu, was the second son of Li Chongshan, the Family Head of Li Family in Donghai. His name was Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang currently held the position of Vice President of "Heavenly Daughter" Group, while his elder brother, Li Donghai, steered the company.

The two brothers jointly controlled this major company, which was second in annual sales in the Huaxia beauty industry.

Not long ago, at a reception held by the Huaxia beauty industry, Li Dongyang met Xia Chenyu. He was mesmerized by her peerless grace and later, upon learning that Xia Chenyu was still single, he was ecstatic and began to pursue her.

Starting with a business dinner under the pretense of talking shop, Li Dongyang invited Xia Chenyu to eat. After meeting him once, Xia Chenyu recognized this guy’s improper intentions toward her, and from then on, she never paid him any attention again. Unexpectedly, he would show up at a time like this.

Considering Li Dongyang’s background and the rather peculiar circumstances of this incident, Xia Chenyu couldn’t help but be a bit suspicious of him, her gaze towards him now laced with some Killing Qi.

Li Dongyang felt uneasy under Xia Chenyu’s penetrating gaze, gave a few dry laughs, and said, "Chenyu, I just heard some about the ins and outs of this matter. Actually, it’s not difficult to solve..."

"Oh? I wonder what President Li’s esteemed advice is..."

Xia Chenyu narrowed her eyes at Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang said earnestly, "I suggest you immediately hold a press conference, admit the problems with your own products, propose a tangible and feasible rectification plan, and offer compensation to the victims. This way, you might be able to keep the impact of the situation to a minimum."

Xia Chenyu chuckled and said, "Our products have no problems, why should we admit to any?"

Li Dongyang sighed and said, "Chenyu, the incident has already occurred, and blindly covering up the truth and resisting senselessly won’t do any good. It will only lead to even worse consequences. You must think this through! Your ’Beauty Company’ has just risen, and its development momentum is strong. If this is not handled well, it may end in utter failure, and you’ll regret it too late..."

"Wouldn’t that be exactly what some people wish for?"

Xia Chenyu sneered, "Some people just can’t stand to see me do well, wanting to punish me to death... Haha, but I, Xia Chenyu, won’t be so easily defeated!"

"Chenyu, you..."

Li Dongyang was about to say something more when suddenly his left shoulder was lightly tapped. He turned around to see a young man around twenty standing behind him with a smile.

"What are you doing?"

Li Dongyang glanced at the young man, certain he didn’t recognize him.

"If you want to pursue President Xia, go home and take a good look in the mirror, look at your own face first!"

The young man said to Li Dongyang with a chuckle.

"What do you mean?"

Li Dongyang frowned and said somewhat angrily.

"You are both fat and ugly, President Xia won’t fancy you! When you become as handsome as me, maybe then you’ll have a chance to win President Xia’s favor... I’m right, aren’t I, President Xia?"

The young man said, turning his gaze to Xia Chenyu with an even brighter smile.

"Hmm. I do like a handsome man like you!"

Xia Chenyu hurried over in a couple of steps and threw herself into the arms of the young man like a swallow returning to the forest, tightly wrapping her arms around his waist and pressing her cheek against his chest, her eyes slightly closed, a look of utter intoxication on her face.

"Chenyu, am I not too late?"

At Xia Chenyu’s affectionate act in full view of everyone, the young man was initially taken aback, then smiled, lightly patting her back and softly asked.

"Fang Bai, there’s been a little incident. I’m feeling a bit panicky and didn’t know how to resolve it, so I called you..."

"Don’t worry, no matter what happens, as long as I am here, everything will be fine!"

"Yeah. My heart settled down the moment you arrived."

The young man was indeed Fang Bai. He had rushed to Beauty Company immediately after receiving Xia Chenyu’s call and then witnessed the scene unfolding before him.

Fang Bai knew that Xia Chenyu’s insistence on his coming must mean something very serious had occurred. Otherwise, given her character, she would not have bothered him.

Xia Chenyu always projected an image of strength and capability, but at this moment, in front of Fang Bai, she seemed as delicate as water. Hearing Fang Bai’s comforting voice, her eyes involuntarily reddened.

Li Dongyang stood by, dumbfounded, watching Fang Bai and Xia Chenyu embracing tightly, his face alternating between red and white.

In his opinion, a company president like Xia Chenyu should be extremely conscious of her own image. Yet, here she was, in full view, initiating an embrace with a man, seemingly unafraid of exposure—a clear sign of the man’s importance to her.

But aside from being taller than himself and having better looks, this man wore plain clothes and lacked any aura of wealth. How could he compare to himself, the Vice President of the prestigious Heavenly Daughter Group?

Could Xia Chenyu, this woman, actually be throwing herself into his arms? Was she blind?

"Chenyu, who is this gentleman... Could you introduce us?"

Li Dongyang forced a smile and asked looking at Fang Bai.

Xia Chenyu stepped out of Fang Bai’s embrace, but still held his hand, happily saying, "He is my man!"

Those five words struck Li Dongyang’s chest like a series of heavy hammers, making his blood boil with a rising jealousy.

"Chenyu, you’re joking, right?"

Li Dongyang chuckled dryly, his gaze towards Fang Bai now filled with hostility.

"Fang Bai, let’s go inside!"

Xia Chenyu did not pay any more attention to Li Dongyang, holding Fang Bai’s hand, they walked side by side into the entrance of Beauty Company.

"This despicable woman, always acting like an untouchable saintess, scorning every man, yet she has sneaked around finding a man... heh heh, I want to see how you’ll get through this situation! The day will come when you kneel before me and beg!"

Li Dongyang watched the backs of Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai, his gaze dark and icy.

He turned and gestured to the two bodyguards who had accompanied him. Understanding the signal, the bodyguards slipped into the crowd and whispered something in the ears of several of the most boisterous men and women, who then became even more raucous in their clamors.

"Mr. Fang!"

Seeing President Xia and Fang Bai walking hand in hand, Zhao Xiaomeng and Wu Xiuyun exchanged glances, stepped forward and respectfully greeted him.

"Sister Zhao, Sister Wu, hello! I haven’t seen you in days, and you’ve both become even more beautiful!"

Fang Bai greeted Zhao Xiaomeng and Wu Xiuyun with a smile, then joked with them.

Xia Chenyu chuckled and said, "Xiao Meng and Xiuyun both have boyfriends now. With the nourishment of love, of course they’re getting prettier!"

"President Xia, you’re the most beautiful one!"

"We’re far behind you!"

Zhao Xiaomeng and Wu Xiuyun both complimented her with a smile in return.
