Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

Chapter 80 Stand Up for Me



The only thing out of place about Tang Yun was a patch of gauze stuck on her forehead.

It had been applied by a nurse while they were waiting just a while ago.

"What are you staring at me for?"

Tang Yun had noticed that Su Chen had been staring at her and couldn't help feeling a bit puzzled.

"Beautiful!" Su Chen said involuntarily.

"You..."

Tang Yun's face turned red, and she started to get a little angry. If it weren't for the fact that he had just saved her mother, she would have shoved this scoundrel to the ground already.

"Sorry, just a little joke."

At that moment, Su Chen also realized what he had said and hurriedly explained, although his face did not show much embarrassment.

"Mr. Su, one does not thank their savior with mere words!" Tang Mingji also hurriedly came over, supporting Su Chen on the other side, "Mr. Su, you are our family's lifesaver. This weekend, I'm hosting a banquet at my home in your honor, and I insist you must not decline."

"That's really not necessary, it was just a small effort on my part."

Su Chen declined, explaining that his act of rescue was purely a result of the sorrowful look on Tang Yun's face, which had reminded him of his own mother, not for any reward.

Tang Mingji, seeing his refusal, discreetly gave Tang Yun a look.

"Mr. Su, this might have been a small effort for you, but for our family, it was a great deed of kindness. Please honor us with your presence; otherwise, we'd feel terribly guilty."

Although Tang Yun was somewhat displeased with Su Chen's earlier action, he had after all saved her mother.

Compared to that, the offense was trivial.

"We'll see."

Su Chen intended to brush it off, but Tang Mingji seemed to sense this too, persistently took his number, and also gave him his own.

Upon stepping outside the hospital, Su Chen took a deep breath of fresh air, finally feeling his body's functions gradually returning.

When Su Chen circulated his Cultivation Technique to look inside himself, he found that the True Yuan inside him was almost exhausted, and it would probably take several days of cultivation to fully recover.

Remembering that his car was still at the accident scene, he hailed a taxi there, then drove to work at the security department of the Belle Building.

Just after he entered the security room, poured a cup of tea, and sat down, Cao Kun came in with a dark face and walked straight up to Su Chen.

"Don't you have any sense of discipline? Look at the time now!"

Cao Kun chastised him with a displeased expression. His act seemed insincere, and his rat-like face just made it more annoying.

Su Chen picked up a newspaper, covered his face with it, then swiveled his chair around, giving Cao Kun his back.

Seeing Su Chen disregard him like that made Cao Kun furious. The others in the security department seemed to enjoy Cao Kun's discomfort, which made him feel even more humiliated.

"Bang!"

"What kind of attitude is that? Stand up!"

Cao Kun slammed the table and yelled with a gloomy face.

Su Chen acted as if he hadn't heard, fiddled with his ears, and continued reading the paper.

The others, seeing this, couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker, pointing fingers at Cao Kun.

"What are you looking at? Don't you have anything better to do?"

Cao Kun's face darkened as he scolded the crowd.

The others merely smirked and then pretended to be busy. Although they didn't like looking at him and didn't respect him, he did, after all, have the title of deputy director.

The key point was that he had Zhang Mingyu backing him up, so they still had to perform some surface-level duties.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Cao Kun's face slightly improved, fulfilling his vanity just a bit.

"Su Chen, I'm telling you one last time, stand up, or face the consequences!

Clenching his teeth and seething with anger, Cao Kun signaled to Pang San, the leader of the driver division.

"Su Chen, I'm not one to criticize, but your attitude has a problem," Pang San chimed in, nodding like a leader, "The deputy director is speaking for your benefit. Can't you just listen properly?"

"Who do you think you are?"

Su Chen gave Pang San a disdainful glance, well aware that these two had long harbored dislike toward him and were looking for trouble now.

Indeed, as Su Chen had anticipated, Cao Kun and Pang San had been seeking chances to get rid of him for days, ideally throwing him out of the company.

Whenever Presidents Lin and Xia needed a car for official business in recent days, they had specifically asked for Su Chen, which certainly meant he had become more familiar with these two high-ranking female leaders than they were.

All they needed was to make a few comments in front of these two, then replacing him would be a simple matter.

Both felt a genuine threat, so they had long agreed to push this kid out of the corporation at the first chance they got.

The trouble was that this kid always clocked in on time for work, clocked out on time, and unless directed otherwise by his superiors, did nothing else at the company—nothing done meant nothing wrong, which was why they hadn't found an opportunity yet.

Today, half an hour into the work day, the usually punctual Su Chen had still not arrived. Pang San quickly realized this was an opportunity and sent a message to Cao Kun about it.

Immediately, Cao Kun was alert. In fact, before Su Chen had arrived, Cao Kun had been hiding in a corner, watching the main entrance. He followed as soon as Su Chen entered, leading to the scene now unfolding.

"Su Chen, you really think too highly of yourself. I'm at least supposed to be your direct supervisor," Pang San said, lengthening his face and speaking coldly, "You don't respect me, fine, but do you dare to ignore what Minister Cao says?"

"Are you two flies buzzing in an outhouse? Just buzzing and buzzing nonstop!"

Disgusted, Su Chen waved his hand as if he were shooing away flies.

"Su Chen, I'm giving you three seconds to stand up!"

A surge of anger welled up in Cao Kun, who slammed his hand down on the table, making the teacup lid jump.

Su Chen seemed not to hear him. He picked up the teacup, blew on the tea leaves floating on top, and leisurely sipped.

Cao Kun, after all, was a deputy director, used to strutting around his patch in the security department. He couldn't stand being ignored like this.

Moreover, with so many people watching, if he couldn't handle this guy, who would listen to him in the future?

"You damn well stand up."

Since this guy wasn't giving him any face, Cao Kun wasn't going to be gentle anymore. He reached out and grabbed Su Chen by the collar, trying to pull him up.

But despite using all his strength, going red in the face, Su Chen remained as immovable as a rock in his chair.

Su Chen, though currently almost devoid of True Yuan, wasn't someone Cao Kun could just pull around.

It wasn't just him—unless it was a cultivator, no ordinary person could budge him an inch if he just used a bit of the Thousand Weight Drop technique!
