Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle - Chapter 289 Handsome Asshole

The meeting was heated and two employees were fired in the process. This was nothing unusual when hotheaded director Lu was involved in the process.

“Here, black coffee just as you like, “Shen Yue said and passed him the cup when only two of them were left in the meeting room. “Drink. You will have a more heated meeting with the Board of Directors later.”

Lu Xuan nodded and drank the coffee, facing the tall skyscraper in front of him. “Thanks for the coffee.”

Shen Yue scoffed. “Don’t thank me. I just made you coffee to cool you down. Our departments are interlinked and when you fire an employee in your team, it affects mine too.”

“I’m pretty sure the fired employees are sent to your department, “Lu Xuan said, curtly. He was the director of the planning and operations department while she headed the marketing department. They had to work hand in hand on many projects.

“That’s not your headache, “Shen Yue pursed her lips. “See you after the meeting, Director Lu.”

“Likewise, “Lu Xuan stared at her retiring back. Shen Yue was a force to be reckoned with in the office and pissing her off meant the death of his mental health. Instead of directly heading to the meeting, he entered his office as his calendar had suggested that he had to make an urgent call today.

Sitting on his chair, he facetimed the person. “Hey, stranger.”

“Lu Xuan, if you are here to tell me how miserable I’m, then scram, “The woman from the other side said as soon as her face became clear. “I’m hungry. Tired. Annoyed. Oh yeah, I haven’t slept in three days. And I have a meeting in five minutes. I might kill anyone. Don’t let it be you.”

“Come on, Xueyun, “Lu Xuan said as he made a face. “You are always busy at your shitty company. Why not join us? We can fix you in our finance department. I am sure you will do a better job than those old geezers who are always after my life.”

He didn’t mention that he had been looking for qualified candidates to remove the old geezers from the spot. Those people had been misusing their authority a lot lately and he didn’t know why his mom didn’t say a word about it.

“Mr cruel capitalist, I’m sure you have fired some poor souls today, “Song Xueyun sarcastically said.

“That’s why I’m giving you a job, “Lu Xuan winked at her.

“Spare me, “She huffed. “Anyways, why did you call me?”

“Woman, you haven’t called your best friend in a week and you dare to ask me why? You know I set a timer on my phone to call you frequently because I don’t wanna give you a chance to complain that I ignore you, “Lu Xuan gaped at her. “Don’t tell me you are dating a tool again and he demands you can’t have a male best friend.”

Song Xueyun rolled her eyes at the overdramatic male. “Who will date a woman who works one hundred and twenty hours a week? No, I’m not dating a tool who puts this condition.”

“Or you can accept that you have a crush on me, “Lu Xuan winked.

Song Xueyun gasped at his audacity. She turned red in embarrassment, “Asshole. That was forever ago. I never met any handsome and good guys. So, I thought you were my one and only. Ugh, I curse the day I had a crush on you.”

Lu Xuan burst into a wide smile. “Seriously, you are the best girl in our circle and I can’t believe that someone as great as you can like an asshole like me. You are right that I’m an asshole. But thank you for calling me handsome. I take pride in being called a handsome asshole.”

“Still an asshole, “Song Xueyun muttered. “So, what’s up?”

“Nothing special just thought of saying hello, “Lu Xuan said with a sigh. He looked at her dark circles and asked, “Seriously, can’t you think of changing your job? You look like a seventy years old woman. Those people are killing you.”

“Thank you for the compliment, “She gave him an ugly look. “But I make half a million a year. So, I would rather be a seventy years old unattractive woman than an unemployed bimbo!”

With this, she hung up the phone.

“Woah, someone is edgy today. But she seriously needs to change her job because the way her firm treats her isn’t worth that half million.”

Lu Xuan sighed and attended the meeting after the call. Just as Shen Yue said, the meeting with the board of directors was heated and even though he was ready for it, he wanted to punch each single of them and throw them down the building. He agreed that two people died but it was not her fault. He asked them to change the construction company because lately they had been doing a shitty job but to give a face to the chairman of the construction company, they went to sign another extension project.

When the meeting ended, Miss Shen Qiao, his mother’s assistant, asked him to go to her office. Another round of sermons. Welcome to hell, Lu Xuan.

“I will handle the matter, mother, “Lu Xuan said as soon as he entered the office.

“I’m not worried about that, “An Qinyan replied, her hands folded on her desk. Behind her, the Skyscraper looked even more gorgeous. She added, “You created the mess, you will clean it. I had no interest in that land but you wanted to do something big in that dirty area. Now deal with the consequences.”

“Thank you, mom, “Lu Xuan said. Someone had to dig in that dirty land to make it profitable and beautiful. He happened to be that person. “I assume that’s not why you called me here.”

A/N: It took us lots of mistakes to realise something. Lu Xuan and Song Xueyun understood the dynamic of relationship and they are doing better than ever. Maybe, some bonds are just meant to be like this.
