Chapter 270: Business Woman

Chapter 270: Business Woman

(Lin Ruoxi perspective)

That damn womanizer!

Perverted bastard!

Fucking idiot!

I had the desire to throw my cell phone on the ground when I saw that idiot's message.

{Lu: I'll see you there, by the way, your sexy business rival knows about your meeting and is on her way to steal the talent you want to recruit.

How do I know?

Well, I got another wife~

See you there, by the way, you must pretend you don't know me, see you~}

That idiot is making fun of me!

Although knowing him, he doesn't write this way so someone else must have answered the message. It is probable that one of his lovers sent this message since he made modifications to my cell phone to avoid espionage, both technological and supernatural factors that I do not understand...

A part of me feels like that idiot did this not only to protect me but also to keep an eye on me, but as long as he doesn't interfere with my business then I can accept this level of possessiveness.

Damn, I'm accepting my husband's nonsense too easily, I'm like my mother...

I rubbed my forehead in frustration, but despite the anger, I'm thankful that my foolish husband warned me that the damn woman is going to try to steal from one of the best sales agents in the world.

Kang Xia, a talented woman at the age of 22, was able to become a legend in business circles for her ability to grow any business beyond the heavens.

Her unparalleled talent is something I need to restore the stability of my company and I must take advantage of it before that bitch surnamed Tang takes her away from me.

Come to think of it, that nasty woman is probably now part of my husband's harem...

Does that make us sisters?

I feel nauseous just thinking about it... Damn idiot husband who sleeps with any woman who gets close to him...

Although if he wasn't like that, we wouldn't have met...

Life is too complicated.

"You look tired" – My husband's new wife spoke to me with concern.

I always wanted a little sister to take care of her so I became close to Long Aoxue even though we met this morning.

I smiled. – "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired from work"

Long Aoxue sighed. – "Why don't you quit your job? A wife's duty is to take care of her husband, so it would be better if you stop working and dedicate yourself wholeheartedly to our husband"

"Em, he prefers that I follow through with my goals so focusing on work will make him happy" - I made a forced smile.

"I see" – Long Aoxue nodded. – "If it is for the good of our husband then I will support you"

...Do all cultivators think like this?

In the movies, cultivators tend to have a mentality stuck in the feudal era, so it is likely that this mentality is common among them...

In that aspect, I like that Luis has never shown bitterness or annoyance towards my dedication to work, he has supported me a lot while keeping an adequate distance so as not to invade my privacy, and he has not told me how I should manage my company and he only gives me advice when I ask...

I like that side of him as normally men feel it's an attack on pride when a woman is more successful than them. At least that's how the men who have tried to woo me have been and only want to have me as a decoration.

That reminds me that today I received a call from my father saying that tomorrow he will come back to the city to introduce me to a man, my damn father must have made a promise to give me to another man in exchange for money.

Before I met Luis, my stomach hurt every time I talked to my parents and I felt miserable, now I know that my father's nonsense doesn't matter since I can fix most of my problems, and in case something else comes up beyond my capacity, Luis will be supporting me.

I hate and love that womanizing idiot...

We are currently traveling by car in the direction of Heavenly Heaven Restaurant for my meeting with Kang Xia.

I kept texting my husband to make sure the damn woman didn't get there before me. Although the person answering the messages obviously wants to make me angry, at least she gave me accurate information.

We got to the restaurant before my husband and his new wife... Just thinking about it is unpleasant.

In the restaurant, we get a lot of stares as we are three outstanding-looking women, Long Aoxue, Xiao Bai, and myself.

(Author's Note: Long Aoxue from My Girlfriend Is Long Aotian)

(Author's Note: Xiao Bai from My Beautiful Teacher)

(Author's Note: Lin Ruoxi from My Wife is a Beautiful CEO)

Since this is a fancy restaurant there was no shortage of high-status men who wanted to approach us when we arrived, luckily Xiao Bai has a rather intimidating look so those unpleasant things didn't approach us.

Earlier today I made a reservation which is where Kang Xia is waiting for me so a waiter took us to a private room suitable for business.

As we approached Xiao Bai stepped forward to enter first which confused me a bit, but then I frowned seeing that there were two people in the room.

Kang Xia is almost my age, but the person next to her was younger, a boy the same age as my husband.

When we entered, both people saw us, but what gave me a bad feeling was that Xiao Bai seemed to be protecting me, but since she hasn't given me directions to leave, it means that the boy is not an enemy for now.

"Liquors with exclusive distilling methods, top-notch medicines that will be accessible to the general public, dietary food supplements with flavors comparable to artificially flavored desserts... These projects are very interesting" – Kang Xia mentioned some of the most eye-catching projects for sale to the public. – "Although the ideas are interesting and there are already several official certifications, I want to check the quality of the products to verify that they will be a best-seller, although I have a doubt... What is this gastronomic gift for VIP users?"

The catalog of future products is to be suitable for all public since until now I have sold jewelry and makeup for the upper class so I want to enter the business of products for the middle class.

In addition to cheap products, I also made a catalog for the upper class with medicines that are not totally essential for ordinary people, such as medicines for insomnia and migraines, there are also some artisan liqueurs that are much more expensive since they are made personally by my husband and everything he prepares is more than delicious.

The VIP user system consists of a membership to have purchase priority every time the best products come out, in addition, each month the person will receive a dish prepared by my husband.

I had to push a lot for him to agree to participate in this and in the end, I managed to convince him to give me a warehouse full of food that is frozen in time so it will taste like it was freshly made.

My husband hates fame and since this will increase his reputation as one of the best chefs in the world I had to sacrifice a lot to convince him to help me.

I had to wear a Playboy bunny costume and do a lot of indecent things... It's something I want to forget.

"As the description says, it will be a dish prepared by one of the best chefs in the world" - I smiled with slight pride. – "Although the name of the chef is not yet recognized, the prestigious Tōtsuki Culinary Academy has given this chef its seal of approval"

The Tōtsuki Culinary Academy is the best cooking school in the world and it is in Japan.

Although Luis has not attended that academy, shortly before we left Japan he received an honorary degree from that academy since the patriarch Ichijo is a friend of the director and sent him a dish made by my husband.

I feel proud that my husband is recognized even if he says that things will become troublesome.

"I will need to check the quality of the food, if the taste is good enough then we can organize a publicity event where the chef can challenge other top chefs, even if your chef doesn't win it will be an excellent publicity" – Kang Xia has great ideas interesting.

"So we have an agreement?" – I smiled.

"First I want to confirm the quality of the products and see the facilities you will use, but I assure you that I will not sign with other companies until I see everything you offer" – Kang Xia smiled at first, but then she seemed to be worried. – "About the Pang family..."

Kang Xia studied in the United States where she gained recognition on Wall Street, returned to China 3 years ago, and was hired by the Pang Group, a conglomerate belonging to the Pang family which is a subordinate of one of the Four Great Families.

Publicly Kang Xia was fired for embezzlement so other companies are unwilling to hire her despite her high abilities, but the truth is that she rejected Young Master Pang's courtships and harassment which caused this smear.

I smiled empathetically. – "I understand the injustices you have faced and you do not have to worry, even if you reject my job offer I am willing to help you as much as possible, I know the feeling of helplessness when facing the tyranny of someone with higher status"

I understand how exhausting it is to have a stalker with a lot of status and authority. I am really grateful to my silly husband, his presence helps me breathe in peace without feeling overwhelmed.

"Thank you" – Kang Xia smiled gratefully.

I was about to offer her a meal to talk amicably, but the door was suddenly opened. - "One moment!"

Tch, that woman is here.

Tang Wan hurriedly entered as a plain-looking man walked behind her with an innocent smile.

Although that man is nothing special, I'm sure he is Luis doing one of his usual silly things.

I tried to form the telepathic link, but I still can't control this ability, fortunately or unfortunately, my stupid husband opened the mental link.

"In case you're wondering, yes, I'm the smiling idiot" - My husband's voice sounded ironic and tired.

"It's good that you recognize that you're an idiot" - I snorted with disgust. – "Where were you?... Did you get into trouble?"

I was worried about his safety since he was left home alone surrounded by possible enemies.

Now I feel like a fool because he was wasting his time with another woman while I was feeling anxious... Idiot.

"Well, a lot of things happened" – Luis sighed. – "I will tell you everything at night"

"Hmph, you must have been just being a perverted idiot with this woman" – I couldn't hide my anger. – "Now are you going to support her while you forget about me?"

"I will be neutral" – My silly husband replied with irony. – "You resolve your differences, I will be a spectator"

Idiot... Although I appreciate that he does not intervene in my company's affairs, I like the sense of autonomy that I have in my company.

"Okay ladies, you chat, I'll be outside so try not to fight" - The smiling idiot that is my husband smiled and left the room.

"I'm going for water" – Long Aoxue stood up and went out too.

Tang Wan started to bargain fiercely with Kang Xia, but unfortunately for her, Miss Xia already made a deal with me causing the idiot surnamed Tang to look at me resentfully.

This is nice.

Come to think of it, the boy surnamed Tang was no longer in the room. I didn't notice when he left...

... Did my husband do something?...

That boy was arrogant, but he wasn't a complete idiot either so I hope he doesn't do too much of a bad thing...

Who am I kidding, possibly my husband will take care of the boy with the methods of a yakuza.

I'm surprised and worried that I can accept this in stride...

Well, right now I have to concentrate on business, the rest is irrelevant.
