Ling Chen turned a deaf ear to him, he did not even blink while staring at the screen, let alone change his posture.

An Nan secretly sighed, and tried to think of a way to let Ling Chen rest for half an hour.

Du Zetang raised his eyebrows and glanced at An Nan teasingly, "I was wondering why Secretary An was being so friendly with me this year, so you were worried about your CEO."

"Look at you now." He looked at the several coffee cups on the table and the ashtray that was filled with cigarette butts. "Even if I drag you out now, no one will believe that you're Ling Chen."

"What are you trying to say?" Taking away his stiff fingers from the keyboard, Ling Chen rubbed his forehead, as though he wanted to habitually go and feel for his cigarettes, "We won't have time." Last night, Ling Guoyuan was already unable to sit still and forced him to come out. If he could not control the remaining two percentage points in the press conference, then everything that his mother had prepared for him over the years would be in ruins.

He couldn't sit still, so he left the villa in the middle of the night and came to the company.

Du Zetang snatched the cigarette from him and threw it into the trash can, "If you keep smoking like this, then we won't have to wait for Ling Guoyuan, that bastard, to deal with us.

He sat down on the sofa and looked at himself as if he was forced into a corner. His eyes gradually became gloomy and he spoke again with a more serious tone, "If you don't think about it for yourself, think about it for that girl. She's worried sick about you. If something really happens to you, no one will be able to protect her like you did. "

"What do you mean?" Ling Chen immediately grabbed hold of the traces of his words, his gaze becoming sharp, "What happened to Xiao Xiao?"

"Don't you care about nothing?" Other people might be afraid of Ling Chen's coldness and anger, but he was not afraid. He had long ago figured out the temperament of his old friend, the friend that they had been friends for so many years.

"Du Zetang, do you want me to kick you out?" Ling Chen frowned, and stared straight at the other party. "If you dare to joke around, from today onwards, don't appear in front of me."

An Nan took the opportunity to take a glance at Ling Chen while he was serving the coffee. Seeing that the other party was staring at him as if he wanted to eat someone, An Nan thought that Du Zetang had his ways.

Secretly giving Du Zetang a thumbs up, he left satisfied.

Du Zetang coughed dryly, to cover up the awkwardness of being threatened by Ling Chen earlier, "Whether I'm joking or not, you can just ask your subordinates."

"One of my classmates seems to be involved with usury. Last night, she followed someone into a nightclub and almost had an accident." When he received the news, Zhang Xiao Xiao had already left with Su Ze. Even so, he was still scared to the point that he was covered in cold sweat, while at the same time, he was deeply moved towards that girl Zhang Xiao Xiao.

Ling Chen's hands which were hanging by the side of the armrest suddenly tightened. He naturally would not actually verify this with his own subordinates, because he knew that Du Zetang would not use such a matter to make fun of him.

Therefore, something really happened to Xiao Xiao last night. Worried, angry, and self-reproaching, complicated emotions surged in his chest. In the end, he could only close her eyes and suppress all of her emotions.

"Is she hurt?" Only a few minutes later, when Ling Chen opened his mouth again, his voice was already hoarse.

Du Zetang replied indifferently, "I didn't receive any injuries. I have Su Ze to protect me. However, I heard that the commotion is quite bad, especially with that classmate of hers who seems to have been drugged. "

As he spoke, he supported his lower jaw with his hands, looking at Ling Chen's reaction with interest. He didn't understand. He was clearly so worried, but why was his old friend still trying to force him? In his eyes, it was impossible for him to protect something like this behind his back.

If it was him, as long as that person still loved him. No matter what happened, he would do everything he could to keep that person by his side.

Unfortunately, when he finally understood what was going on, that person had already gone to someone else's side.

Her beautiful peach blossom eyes dimmed for a split-second before they quickly returned to their usual lustre. "Go and see her. I'm guessing that girl is also scared. As resourceful as Ling Guoyuan is, I don't believe that he can cover it up for the entire world. I'll think of a way for you to meet up with me once. " These words sounded like Du Zetang was speaking up for Zhang Xiao Xiao, but only he himself knew that it was all for Ling Chen.

It was already unknown when Zhang Xiao Xiao had become the only medicine that could cure Ling Chen.

Ling Chen wavered for a moment. Of course he wanted to see Zhang Xiao Xiao and hug the little girl in his arms to comfort her and teach her a lesson.

Comforting her had frightened him and taught her to worry about going to a place like that despite her own comfort.
