Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 716: A Man’s Pride
Over the next few days, Su Chen still passed the time in the usual routine of going to work, practicing cultivation, and sleeping, without anything special happening.
If something had to be mentioned as special, it was that Lin Ruoxue had just scolded him, which resulted in him not visiting the PR department in the past few days and he only visited Xia Qiuru once!
After all, nothing is more important than one's wife!
That morning, while Su Chen was in his office playing "Fight the Landlord," his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Yunlong calling, he answered the call.
It turned out Yunyao was leaving in a couple of days and Yunlong was free that evening, planning to go out and have some fun with Yunyao, asking if he wanted to come along.
Su Chen certainly understood what Yunlong, the rascal, was implying—without a doubt, it was still about matchmaking them!
He was also speechless about Yunlong's blatant betrayal by selling out his own sister!
So he made an excuse about being busy and declined, to avoid unnecessary trouble!
But this time, he was wrong because it was not Yunlong's idea, but Yunyao's.
"Sister, big bro said he's busy."
Yunlong reluctantly told Yunyao as he hung up the phone and looked at her on the sofa.
"If he's busy, then let it be."
Yunyao said nonchalantly, yet a hint of disappointment flickered in her eyes.
"Sis, not to criticize you, but I had told you earlier to secure a good man like big bro! But you…"
Yunlong sighed.
"What are you thinking? I asked you to call him just so he would look after you properly!"
Yunyao said somewhat sheepishly.
"Keep denying it, sis, but you know exactly what you're thinking!"
Yunlong retorted with a twist of his mouth, showing a hint of frustration!
He knew that previously, it truly was him forcefully trying to pair them up, and it seemed like neither big bro nor his sister were interested in that way.
All he did was feel that big bro was a man his sister shouldn't miss out on.
But recently, he noticed some changes.
Becuase Yunyao kept bringing up big bro recently, although each time she pretended it was unintentional.
Yet the more she pretended it was unintentional, the more Yunlong felt there was something fishy—don't forget, Yunlong used to be an ace among special forces, naturally exceptional in observation.
"I'm well aware of my own thoughts, I'm telling you, you're overthinking it!"
Yunyao declared, her tone clearly lacking in confidence.
To be honest, she herself was not quite sure of her feelings currently.
Ever since the last time Su Chen had protected her with no regard for his own life during the bomb explosion, she felt a subtle change about this man in her heart!
Even she didn't know what this subtle change was or what it meant…
"Sis, I'll advise you once more, happiness is something you need to grasp for yourself!"
Yunlong said lightly as he watched Yunyao, who seemed insincere.
His words made Yunyao's heart quiver as if it had been struck by something.
Seeing Yunyao's waver, Yunlong quickly sat down beside her and said with a suggestive tone:
"Sis, you are so beautiful and have such a great figure, just take the initiative and wouldn't big bro fall obediently at your feet?"
After speaking, Yunlong gave Yunyao a mischievous wink...
"Yunlong, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Yunyao instantly became infuriated upon hearing Yunlong's words, grabbing a cushion nearby and hurling it at him fiercely!
She seriously doubted whether this guy was truly her own brother—if he was, how could he suggest such a ridiculous idea!
Actually suggesting that she seduce their big brother, what a thought!
Seeing Yunyao lose her temper, Yunlong quickly dodged.
"Sis, I'm just looking out for you!"
Yunlong still didn't give up and added:
"Don't fail to recognize someone with good intentions!"
"I don't need your false kindness, feed it to the dog!"
Yunyao impatiently said, throwing another pillow at him...
"Big brother!"
Yunlong suddenly shouted towards the door!

Upon hearing this, Yunyao's face changed drastically, first thinking about whether he had heard those indecent words she had just uttered.
If he had heard them, that would be so embarrassing!
She quickly looked back, but the space outside the door was empty; there was no one there.
"You dare to trick me!"
Yunyao roared, poised to pounce on Yunlong!
How could Yunyao possibly catch Yunlong with her moves? He dodged nimbly.
"Sis, wasn't your reaction just now enough to prove my point?"
Yunlong chuckled and said:
"Sis, stop deceiving yourself!"
With those words, Yunyao's mix of shame and anger intensified, and she chased after Yunlong again!
At that moment, she wished she could sew his mouth shut!
......
Su Chen, of course, was oblivious to what was happening between Yunlong and Yunyao.
At that time, he was leisurely reading the latest issue of "Men's Wear" magazine!
He had flipped through the magazine four times already. He couldn't go to the PR department or to Xia Qiuru, so that was all he could do.
So, he stayed in the office until noon, then he went downstairs to eat.
Luckily, just as he walked into the little restaurant, his eyes lit up because he noticed that Xia Qiuru was also there.
"Director Xia, you don't mind sharing a table, do you?"
Su Chen smiled as he walked up to Xia Qiuru's table.
Xia Qiuru looked up and saw him; a flicker of joy flashed in her eyes, but she quickly hid it.
"You've got legs of your own, it's your call where to sit!"
Xia Qiuru said indifferently, her tone carrying a hint of resentment.
Actually, Xia Qiuru's remark about having his own legs was somewhat a reproach for his recent absence from her side, but Su Chen was cluelessly unable to grasp the deeper meaning.
"Is this all you're having, these light dishes?"
Su Chen commented looking at Xia Qiuru's table, then waved over a waiter and ordered two more substantial dishes.
"Has your wife been keeping a tight leash on you lately, is that why you haven't dared to come my way?"
Xia Qiuru, after all a woman, couldn't help but ask.
"How could that be? Would she dare to control me?"
How could he admit to being henpecked in front of Xia Qiuru?
"Isn't it just that I've been really busy lately?"
Su Chen said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xia Qiuru almost blurted out, "Busy my ass!"
Who doesn't know, in all of Belle Corporation, you're the one who's least busy?
But she never said those words, only gave a meaningful smile instead.
Actually, Su Chen felt somewhat embarrassed saying that, feeling as though he was mocking himself.
But what else could he say?
He couldn't possibly admit that his wife had laid down the law recently, telling him not to flirt around, could he?
Where would that leave his face as a man...
