27 Why is it become like this?

Naruto stopped his step and looked at the scene in front of him.

Outside the office's room, there were a man and woman, the man wore expensive suits and should belong to the higher management in the company, he had a fat figure with a bald head, normal height, and a pair of small eyes.

As for the woman, Naruto certainly knew her, wasn't she his fellow senior, Liu Mingyu? With a light purple suit and several streaks of purplish-red dyed hair, she appeared graceful and seductive like always.

Right now, Liu Mingyu had a bitter expression on her face, "Department Head Ma, I'm sorry because I really can't, I have something to do this day, maybe we can go in another day?"

The one called as Department Head Ma smiled, he said: "Mingyu, this is always a reason you use to reject my invitation to get a couple of drinks together, why? You don't want to go with an old man like me? Aren't you belittle me a bit?"

Liu Mingyu became more depressed, "I wasn't mean to be like that Department Head Ma, I'm really busy at the moment, even tomorrow I still have a client, so I honestly don't have a time."

Department Head Ma smiling face replaced with a sneer and he mockingly said, "Liu Mingyu, don't pretend to be pure and virtuous, I know what you did to gain an attraction of your clients, hell, most of the people in the company knows about it!"

Liu Mingyu now really distressed as her eyes turned moist, with a slightly cold tone, she said, " Department Head Ma, please mind your words, I'm not the kind of woman from rumors and slanders people accused!"

"Hahaha, said every people whose guilty, who are you trying to fool Mingyu?! Number one person in performance every year, clearly you give an extra performance to those of your client, you are a flower within companies that only allowed outsiders to pluck..." Department Head Ma laughed wretchedly, he then added, "Mingyu, if you take on my offer, I guaranteed that your life would be easy, I can give you anything you want, so long you give me something in return, how is it? Isn't this what we call a win-win situation?"

"Department Head Ma, please stop talking now! I have other things to do," Liu Mingyu turned away, tears started dropping from her eyes as she tried to leave the spot.

But Department Head Ma seemed unwilling to let her go, he grabbed her hands tightly, "You think you just can walk away like that?!" Department Head Ma hideously said.

"Department Head Ma please! You have crossover the line!" Liu Mingyu tried to shake off his hold.

"You-" before Department Head Ma manage to said anything, someone's voice suddenly resounded.

"Sister Mingyu? What are you doing here?"

The man's voice surprised both of them, Department Head Ma quickly released Liu Mingyu's hand, he glanced at the unfamiliar man that appeared in front of him.

"Y-You, who are you? What are you doing here?!"Department Head Ma anxiously asked.

Naruto with an innocent expression, doubtful looked at both of them before he answered Department Head Ma with a respectful tone, "I am the new male employee of PR Department, nice to meet you err, sorry I don't think I know your name, surely you wouldn't mind we knowing each other right?"

"Male employee?" Department Head Ma revealed a pondering looks, he remembered that yesterday PR was indeed had an open spot for new employee, but he didn't know that the one got accepted is a male employee. isn't the requirement and test are very harsh and difficult for a male applicant? Either this man got in through backing in the company or he had astounding quality. Of course, for a man like Department Head Ma who looked down upon this ordinary employee, he refused to admit the later.

With an arrogant tone, he said, "I'm Ma, Department Head of finance, now that you know me, you better not act unreasonably, or I can guarantee your exit door!"

Naruto showed an afraid and scared look, "Of course! Of course! Turn out is Department Head Ma, I'm sorry that I didn't recognize you before, I heard you are an extremely capable person, many persons spoke well about you, even I got overwhelmed by it, oh! What an honor to meet you, sir!"

Since Naruto showed a humble and respective behavior, Department Head Ma who previously got annoyed by him slowly turned better as he gave an appreciative look to Naruto.

"Hahaha! it's nothing, it's nothing! Young people are supposed to be like you, know they own limitation, wahahaha!"

Naruto kept giving him praises and flatteries, the nose on Department Head Ma kept getting higher to the air.

It was after so long that Department Head Ma seemed like satisfied of being praised, he said, "Alright, you keep work harder, even if it takes forever for you to reach my position, don't get disheartened." With that said, he swaggered away from the young man and woman. He even seemed like forgot about the woman he supposed to be harassed.

Liu Mingyu already recovered, when Naruto appeared before she felt a little happy but feared that Department Head Ma would give him a hard time, but upon saw how Naruto flawlessly praises Department Head Ma, she turned relief and somehow admired Naruto who would lay down his pride just not to get troubled.

Of course, unknown to Liu Mingyu, Naruto did not just say a normal word, he had been tweak his voice so it becomes more effective than usual when he praised Department Head Ma, if not, how can he just swaggering from here without even remember Liu Mingyu.

"Naruto, thank you and sorry that you have to lower your face just for the sake of me," Liu Mingyu express both gratitude and apologize at the same time.

Naruto once again adopted confusion look, he innocently said, "Sister Mingyu? What are you talking about? Is department Head Ma gave you any trouble?"

Liu Mingyu rolled her eyes, "Alright, alright! Pretend I didn't say anything."

"No! If he did give you any sort of trouble, I would fight with him!" Naruto retorted, he lifted up both his arm and made a stance ready to fight.

"Ah? don't! You would get a trouble if a fight truly happen," Liu Mingyu worriedly grabbed his arm.

"Eh, for Sister Mingyu, even I have to fight Jim Carrey, I am fearless!" Naruto confidently said.

"Jim Carrey? isn't he one of those comedians?" Liu Mingyu pondered before she giggled.

"H-huh, you know?! T-then, uuuh... Eddie Murphy! I fight to the death with Eddie Murphy!" Naruto nervously said.

"He also comedians you know!" Liu Mingyu now laughed.

"Aah you blew my lie sister Mingyu, you are no fun," Naruto grumbled.

Liu Mingyu really laughed now even tears come out from her side of eyes, her previous once graceful image change into unrestraint one.

Naruto smiled, but he hurriedly grabbed Liu Mingyu's hand and whispered softly,"sister Mingyu we should get away quickly from here."

Liu Mingyu who still trying to regain her bearing startled, she didn't drop her hand from Naruto grasp and let him dragged her away from their previous spot.

"Um? What happened?" Liu Mingyu titled her head, but before she got the answer, a sound of women screams and man curses came from the elevator direction,

"Ahhhhh! Pervert!"

"Fuck! my pants! Why it suddenly drop down?! Ah, my belt has been cut off?! How? When?!"

"Call securities! There is a pervert here!"

"No! I'm not a pervert! This...this...!"

"Ahhhhhh!"

Liu Mingyu was shocked when heard the commotions, she looked for an answer from Naruto but the opposite party only gave her a wink.

Since Naruto didn't intended to give any proper explanation, Liu Mingyu also not inquired further, she only smiled gratefully to the man who helped her in his own way.

There was nothing else happen after the previous uproar from a certain pervert, also the joyful Mo Qianni no longer bothering Naruto with more paperwork, all in all, Naruto had a quite peaceful time now.

(***)

Finally, work time was over as Naruto humming and prepared his stuff to get back home, he bid goodbyes to other colleagues before his phone ringing.

Naruto checked the Id of the caller, 'Wang Yulan?'

He quickly accepted the call and answered it, "Auntie Wang? What hap-"

"Young Master! Quickly get back home! It's Master! He comes back with a large number of people!" a panic voice of Wang Ma could be heard on the opposite line.

Every muscle in Naruto's body became tense, he quickly tapped his feet to the ground and disappeared from his spot. If other people would see this they will certainly get shocked because they never see such a bizarre scene before except in television or magic shows.

On the way, Naruto asked further, "Auntie Wang, calm down! I'm on my way, tell me what happened, it's everything OK?"

"The moment Young Miss got off work and returned home, Master came, and they're quarreling outside..." Wang Ma spoke with a sobbing tone,"Young Master, please get back soon, I'm afraid Master and other people would bring harm to Young Miss, Young Master-"

Before Wang Ma finished speaking, a knocking noise came from the other side of the line. Next, a familiar male voice entered Naruto's ears...

"Where are you leecher?! I'm here right now, come if you have the guts!"

Naruto's face suddenly turned cold, he could hear Wang Ma voice while she was wailing.

"Do you have to go this far?" Naruto darkly said

"It was you and that unfilial sluts that force me! I already said that I would give you payback for what you have done, let's see if you actually dare to show up!"

"I'm warning you, I already said that I won't be relentless anymore if you spoke like that again."

"Like what? Calling her a slut? That's what she is right? For sleeping around with men and get addicted with it, if not a slut then what she is?!" Lin Kun taunted.

Naruto's face getting darker as vein popped out from his temple, if this phone wasn't Lin Ruoxi's gift, he might already crushing it with his bare hand. Naruto didn't say any further, he cut off the line, and focused on getting back as fast as he can.

Back in the home, Lin Kun laughed contemptuously, "He must be annoyed so much that he may already die along the way here!"

Not far away from him, Wang Ma was laying on Lin Ruoxi's embrace, both of them was so pale that maybe all the blood in their body already left them, tears had flown uncontrollably from Lin Ruoxi's eyes, as for Wang Ma, there was a red palm mark over her face, which is could be seen clearly since she was devoid from other colors besides white.

Lin Kun looked at them without mercies in his eyes, he threw Wang Ma's phone to their side and looked for a couch to sit.

Lin Ruoxi hatefully glared at him, but she also felt powerless at the same time, why? Why she can't just feel happy for a while? Why they don't give her any room to breathe freely? Why must they persistently like this?

Lin Kun noticed her glare, he smirked, "What? You hate me now? Hump! With all pretending to be a good and nice daughter, you certainly good at acting!"

"Father, you have gone too far! Don't you realize that you just a pawn to Xu Zhihong, what do you think you would get by doing these?! Wake up father!" Lin Ruoxi sobbed.

"Shut up! What do you know?! If you just obeyed me nothing like this would happen! Besides, Young Master Xu already promises that he would share some of the company stocks with me!" Lin Kun said with a crazed expression.

"Father... please... just... heard me OK? Lets settled this down now, you want company shares? I give it you, just... please... father..." Lin Ruoxi said with red eyes, her tone filled with an entreaty.

Lin Kun brows knitted, he nodded, "Sure, lets settled this down."

He smiled wickedly while added, "But you have to leave that shit dog and married Young Master Xu!"

Lin Ruoxi closed her eyes as her tears poured down, she felt really hopeless this time, "Father why must you be like this? What I have done to you that made you hate me so much?"

"You want to know? Then you should asked your grandmother about that!" Lin Kun hatefully said.

"Is it because of the inheritance? Is that it? Is it money so important to you, father? More than your daughter?"

Lin Kun suddenly laughed out loud, his laughter was eerie and sinister but if you listened closely there was a hint of hurt inside of them.

"Ooh, soo stupid, my idiotic and stupid daughter!"

"You would never understand me."

"Never..."

(***)

Naruto arrived at the Dragon's villa as he like a shadow, quickly passed by the front gate and headed to his home.

At this moment, it was already dusk. The waning golden light scattered across the spacious and top-grade villa area of Dragon Garden. This caused the trees to reflect a hint of red, while causing the grass to appear like a river of gold, and the landscape to be exceptionally beautiful.

If this was the normal situation, Naruto would spend hours just to sit on the yard, enjoying the scene that appears on his eyes. But sadly, circumstances didn't allow it now.

Naruto landed on his own lawn, he scanned the entire house, besides three familiar auras, there was another five and all of them seemed a little bit special.

Naruto took a deep breath before he shouted, "Alright! I'm here!"

Eventually, the door was vigorously opened. The figure of Lin Kun, with an upright posture and in a suit came walking out, his face that originally looked smart and mature instead seemed shady and excited at this moment. It was as if he could foresee that he would be able to finally take his revenge.

Behind him, were 5 young men that wore identical clothing: black tight short-sleeved shirts. From their bulging muscles, it wasn't difficult to tell that they had unordinary combat skills.

"Haha, you here! You really have the guts to come back here, here I thought you are too afraid to return," Lin Kun slanted his head, raising the corner of his eye. His eyes revealed deep hatred from within.

Naruto didn't respond toward his provocation, he asked: "How's Auntie Wang and your daughter?"

Lin Kun brows twitched a little, doesn't know whether because Naruto ignored him or because he uses 'your daughter' instead 'my wife' or 'Lin Ruoxi" when he was inquiry their information from him.

The moment those words were spoken, two figures walked out from the villa's door.

Wang Ma was supporting Lin Ruoxi, both of them looked so miserable that made Naruto heart's feeling ache. They just looked happy and laughed merrily this morning, a small celebration for welcoming him into their house. Lin Ruoxi who was giggle mischievously after her prank and Wang Ma who smiled gently after made him a ramen.

"Naruto... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry," Lin Ruoxi sobbed. This is not another prank or surprises. Those tears are genuinely coming out from her eyes.

"Young master be careful!" Wang Ma warned him, her previous gentle smile replaces with a worried look, she also twitched a little, clearly the red palm mark on her face was hurting her.

Naruto was feeling too much right now, it's so complicated, there were heartache, sickness, sadness, anger, sorrow, and many other. It made him too hard to breathe as his eyes changed slowly turned red. He opened several buttons of his shirt so he could breath more easily, he closed his eyes to regains his calmness.

"Leecher brat! Let me tell you since you returned here today, you asked for it. My brother's fists and kicks have no eyes, if you wish to receive less of a beating, then kneel on the ground and kowtow to me dozens of times, then lick my leather shoes clean, and obediently walk away from here," Lin Kun Laughed weirdly, his voice seemed to include traces of madness.

"Mr. Lin," Naruto spoke hardly, he still trying to control himself at this time, with a cold eye he stared at Lin Kun, "If I did what you told me, will you leave them alone?"

"Noo!" Lin Ruoxi suddenly lost it, she still could bear it when everything happens to her, but she couldn't let Naruto being humiliated like that, "father please! Just go away! Don't come here anymore! Naruto, don't do this! I beg you, please!"

"Ahahahah! Seriously you gonna do what I'm saying, what a coward! I know you scared of my bros," Lin Kun laughed in disdain. The five young man behind him also seems sneered as they mocked Naruto's spineless attitude.

"Mr. Lin, you don't have to say any more nonsense, tell me straight in the eye, if I did everything you just told me, would you leave both of them alone?" Naruto kept ignoring Lin Kun taunted as he stared deeply into his eyes.

"Naruto..."

*sobs* *sobs*

Lin Ruoxi sat on the ground, her legs couldn't hold the pressure she was feeling anymore.

'Why does it become like this?'

'Why?'

Lin Kun felt his back turned cold when Naruto stared at him, if Lin Kun still in his sober condition, perhaps he would be thought deeply regarding Naruto's word, but, unfortunately, he already consumed by vengeance and his hatred for Lin Ruoxi and Naruto was clouded his mind.

Without any seriousness or conviction on his tone, he laughed maniacally and saidm "Yes, yes, I promise! Quickly lick my shoes, wahahahahah!"

Even a stupid person would know that he's not being serious in his promises, Naruto sighed, he glanced at Lin Ruoxi who already wept, "Sorry Ruoxi, I made you cry again, I'm a bad person didn't I?" Naruto said while smiling.

He turned back to Lin Kun, his cold eyes swept the five-person behind him. His next word could make every person feeling like being thrown into the deepest abyss.

"Sorry you guys, Lin Kun just buy you all ticket straight to hell. Soo, which one first?"
