Chapter 348: Yu Guangping Got Badly Trapped
"That's good, I thought Mr. Yu couldn't even come up with a mere 5 million," Su Mo chuckled and said, "Qiuru, come here for a moment."
"What for?"

Xia Qiuru walked over with an enchanting stride.
"Just give Mr. Yu your account number so he can transfer the money."
Before Xia Qiuru could refuse, Su Chen continued:
"This time you're not allowed to refuse and say you don't want it"
"No, I'm definitely not taking this money."
Xia Qiuru still refused to accept it, as after all, it was money that Su Chen had won fair and square.
"If you're polite with me again, I'll really get angry. Do you still consider me your boyfriend?"
Su Chen pretended to pull a long face, expressing his displeasure.
He knew Xia Qiuru's salary was decent, but taking care of her family and renting an apartment put a lot of pressure on her, so he wanted to help her out.
The 5 million meant little to him, but for Xia Qiuru, it would definitely make her life much easier.
The others, hearing them insistently refusing the 5 million, were utterly astonished.
5 million! And both of them were so generous to this extent!
It seemed it was indeed true love!
Many thought, "If you don't want it, I'll take it!"
Yu Guangping, seeing the two push it back and forth, his face darkened even more.
Could you please spare a thought for my feelings?
Flaunting your love with my money, is this really okay?
"Then let's split it, I definitely won't take it all,"
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Xia Qiuru's cheeks tinted slightly red, and finally, she nodded.
"Alright, then transfer it to my card first, I'll give it to you later."
Saying this, Su Chen handed his bank card to Yu Guangping.
Yu Guangping, with great pain, transferred that huge amount of money.
Shortly after, Su Chen's phone pinged with a notification confirming the receipt of the payment. After verifying it was correct, he waved his hand tauntingly and said:
"Goodbye, Mr. Yu, sorry to trouble you to settle the bill as well!"
Then Su Chen also casually took 3 unopened bottles of '82 Lafite with him.
Seeing Su Chen's shameless behavior, Yu Guangping nearly choked on his own blood.
When Yu Guangping was paying the bill, his face darkened again because the meal had cost him over a million.
"Why so much money?"
Yu Guangping shouted at the waiter, his tone harsh as he now had only about 3 million in cash.
What in the world did they eat to spend so much!?
"You see, your friends ordered the most top-tier ingredients in our restaurant, such as the White Truffle, they ordered a whole kilogram, and just this one item costs 300,000. Then there's the caviar, as it's from wild sturgeons from the Caspian Sea, costing hundreds per gram. And also..."
The waiter rambled on and on, and the darker Yu Guangping's face became, the bigger the fire in his heart grew.
This asshole, is he really such a bumpkin, or is he doing this on purpose to mess with me!?
"Alright, that's enough, swipe the card!"
Yu Guangping, running out of patience, cut off the waiter, tossing a bank card over.
Having already spent 5 million, why bother fussing over this additional million?
Yu Guangping could only comfort himself...
As soon as they left the restaurant, Xia Qiuru couldn't hold it in anymore and covered her stomach, laughing nonstop, seeming very happy.
"Director Xia, I was a decent fake boyfriend today, wasn't I?"
After today's incident, the barriers between them seemed to have lessened considerably, and Su Chen reverted to his cheeky self.
"Hmm, not bad."
Xia Qiuru patted Su Mo's shoulder and said heartily.
Perhaps maintaining such a relationship was also not a bad thing...
Late, the two of them drove together in Xia Qiuru's Ford back to Belle Corporation. Since it was lunch break, many people were still out and about.
Seeing Su Chen and Xia Qiuru in the same car, people's eyes widened in disbelief!
Had Su Chen already won the favor of Director Lin and now he was hooking up with Director Xia?
The two most beautiful women in the company were both closely associated with him; did these guys stand a chance?
Could it be just because this guy was a bit handsome?
To be honest, there were still many men at Belle Corporation who had thoughts about the beautiful and gentle Xia Qiuru.
Furthermore, some men even thought Xia Qiuru was more suitable for a wife than Lin Ruoxue because Lin Ruoxue was too lofty and cold, seemingly out of reach.
While Xia Qiuru was not only beautiful but also had a great personality, gentle as jade—truly a perfect choice for a wife!
However, Xia Qiuru and Su Chen didn't realize they had become the subject of so much gossip, they simply drove past the front of Belle Building and into the parking lot on the other side.
It had been a happy day for Xia Qiuru, and though they were pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend, Xia Qiuru still felt an inexplicable joy.
Especially Su Chen's piano playing for her made her feel that maybe Su Chen did have feelings for her.
That was enough for her, she didn't dare to ask for more!
After parking the car, the two went back to work, Su Chen naturally returning to the public relations department.
But as soon as he entered, he saw that group of women huddled together, excitedly discussing something.
"What's the happy news? Share it with your department head."
Su Chen walked up behind Ran Ting and playfully slapped her buttocks.
Ran Ting felt violated and immediately turned around furiously, wanting to see who dared to be so bold.
However, when she saw it was Su Chen, that angry glare in her beautiful eyes briefly flashed with shyness:
"Director, you're taking advantage of me again!"
"Don't you like it when the director takes advantage of you?"
A woman nearby laughed, and such trivial matters had become almost daily occurrences, so they were used to it.
"By the way, Director, we just received news that to reward our hard work recently, the company has arranged a trip for our department in two weeks!"
Zhao Lin also didn't want to fall behind and approached Su Chen, her soft body almost pressing tightly against him:
"Director, where do you think we should go?"
"Yeah, Director, what do you think?"
The others also looked towards Su Chen, and although he was the head, he didn't seem to carry much authority in their eyes.
"What do you all think?"
Su Chen asked with a smile; he didn't feel much about traveling since he had visited most countries in the world.
"We only have five days, everyone thinks it's better to stay domestic. Going abroad is too troublesome with all the passports and visas."
Zhao Lin pouted, saying she actually preferred shopping paradises like Hong Kong, Paris, and Milan...
