My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1017 Promise Three

A thunderous roar exploded in the sky.

On rainy summer days, thunder is like a unique symphony, always appearing between the raindrops. After lunch, Song Lan wiped the place where the plates were placed clean with a napkin before carrying the plates away.

The weather in the city has been quite bad these past few days.

Because of the low-lying terrain of her current residential area, she has to wade through water to get out of the house in the morning. After leaving the residential area, she walks to the next residential area and takes off her sandals and socks in her car, then changes into a new pair of socks and high heels before driving to the company.

That's why she wants to buy a new house.

This happens every summer, the only difference is how long it lasts. The garage in the community is even worse, because it's located in a lower area. Even during heavy rains, the garage floods, let alone in the summer. In the summer, you can even raise fish in it. And yet, the property management fee is a thousand yuan a year. I don't know what all that money is used for.

The landscaping is not done well.

The roads in the community are damaged but not repaired, and when the elevator occasionally breaks down, they don't come to check it immediately.

In fact, things like elevators, which are of great importance to personal safety, should be maintained every year even if they are not broken. However, the property management company just doesn't do it. Apart from being relatively proactive in collecting property fees, they will postpone everything else as long as possible. When they really can't delay any longer, they will reluctantly come over.

Unfortunately, she was powerless to do anything about her dissatisfaction and could only protest by not paying the property management fees. She hadn't paid them last year, and the property management staff came several times, but she cursed them away each time.

She sold all her stocks this morning, and with the principal, she now has 540,000 yuan. She also has over a million yuan in savings. If she sells her current house, she could easily buy a small villa.

then.

While Chairman Lin and Director Zhang were discussing business after lunch, Song Lan quietly pushed open the door to a conference room. She estimated that Chairman Lin and Director Zhang's business might take a while to discuss, so she could look at houses online first.

Song Lan opened an app and began searching seriously. She first looked at areas close to the company, and there were quite a few residential communities still for sale, but she wanted to buy a small villa, so she naturally excluded commercial housing.

Time passed little by little.

Until about one o'clock.

Song Lan realized that Chairman Lin and Director Zhang had been discussing serious matters for quite a while today. When a certain thought popped into her mind, Song Lan was startled and quickly suppressed the damned idea.

If she remembered correctly, Director Zhang arrived at the company close to noon, and now almost an hour and a half had passed, and neither Chairman Lin nor Director Zhang had appeared.

of course.

It's possible she's left, but the probability is low. If she were to leave, even if the restaurant had already closed for lunch, Chairman Lin would have asked her to order takeout. But now there's no phone call or text message, which means... the important business they're discussing is far more important than eating.

Turning my head to look out the window, I saw that the rain had lessened and would probably stop soon. The previously gloomy sky was gradually brightening.

Just then, a message appeared on her phone.

"Your takeout has arrived at the front desk, please go and pick it up."

This is Chairman Lin's information.

"it is good"

Song Lan composed herself and quickly left the conference room. She only dared to slack off like this because Director Zhang was here today. If Director Zhang wasn't around, she wouldn't dare to do this. Even if there was nothing wrong, she would still have to walk around in front of Chairman Lin a couple of times and pretend that something was wrong.

That's how it is in the workplace.

You don't necessarily have to do anything wrong, but you must pretend to be very busy.

That way, the boss will feel comfortable. Otherwise... no matter how capable she is, if the boss sees nothing wrong, she'll feel that it makes no difference whether the company has her or not.

She has already found a house and saved a screenshot of the real estate agent's number on her phone. She will go and take a look this Sunday. It is only because the real estate market has been sluggish in the last two years that she has the courage to buy a small villa. A few years ago, she would not have dared to even glance at it.

After receiving the takeout ordered by Chairman Lin from the front desk, Song Lan quickly appeared in Chairman Lin's office. She saw Chairman Lin sitting in a chair with his eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking quite uncomfortable.

Song Lan didn't dare to ask any questions.

Even though she had some doubts... after all, Chairman Lin had had several abortions for Director Zhang, and the two of them had done *that* countless times. Now, she was actually acting very uncomfortable. Could it be that Director Zhang was taking an unusual approach today...? Song Lan wanted to slap herself.

"Go ahead!"

Lin Bao'er said.

Song Lan turned and left.

She didn't see Director Zhang, but even if the two were old acquaintances, this was, after all, a company, and they definitely needed to avoid suspicion.

Open the lid of the takeout container.

Lin Bao'er tore open the plastic packaging of the disposable chopsticks, eating with her head down while secretly cursing Zhang Xiaoyou in her heart.

He ignored her warnings, especially after she repeatedly reminded him not to go inside. But he just wouldn't listen. Later, when she mentioned wanting to buy a comedy script from him...

After glancing at her, he turned around and pinned himself to the bed...

The end.

The guy glanced outside and then hurriedly ran away. Clearly, after getting his bet, he had no intention of discussing anything else with me.

In the past, Lin Bao'er would only eat half of a takeout meal at most, not because she was dieting, but mainly because she had a small appetite. But today she was probably really hungry, and she ate all the rice and vegetables, and even ate two-thirds of the fruit.

After finishing her meal, Lin Bao'er threw the lunchbox into the trash can, then stood up and walked to the French windows. Subconsciously, she reached out and rubbed her lower abdomen. Even though Zhang Xiaoyou was a bit of a bastard, it felt really good. She was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but once she got used to it, it was quite pleasant.

There's quite a big difference between the real and the fake.

Anyway, today counts as one time, and there will be many more to come. As for letting Zhang You... obviously impossible. This guy hasn't become a world superstar yet. The key is that even if she wanted to fulfill all the agreements, she wouldn't have the time, and that kind of thing can't be kept secret at all.

Rubbing her lower abdomen, Lin Bao'er, who is nearly 1.7 meters tall, rubbed her buttocks through her jeans. Putting aside the various abilities she has shown, Zhang Xiaoyou's behavior in some aspects is particularly despicable.

He complained that her buttocks were too small, but when he got physical, he pinched them until they hurt.

After standing for a while, Lin Bao'er sat back down in her office chair. Now... she didn't even dare to see Jiang Yi, the pop star under her company. Pushing these thoughts out of her mind, Lin Bao'er quickly got back to work.

She had only ever made a bet with Zhang Xiaoyou in her life.

What was originally a sure win turned into a complete loss, so Lin Bao'er made up her mind that this was her first and last bet. She would never sign another bet, not even one like the box office betting agreement with Feitian Entertainment for "The Vanished She".

Can't afford to lose.

Let's make a bet with Zhang Xiaoyou.

Not only did she lose, she also suffered excruciating pain. Even without looking at the camera, Lin Bao'er knew that she must have been pinched until she was left with red marks.
