Chapter 8
---
As Lu Ze’s voice fell, the expressions of several people in the team suddenly became strange, then became realization before they all looked up at Xiang Han with surprise.
Some nosy person went back and quietly checked the company's registration information and found that Xiang Han was more than just a partner, he was also one of the two founders.
As a result, rumors soon started. It was said that the new assistant was actually a founding partner of the company. That person had the right to manage the company, there were no backdoors taken at all.
As for Zhang Jia who left, he was soon forgotten by everyone.
After hearing about this incident from Lu Ze, Xiang Han was very surprised and couldn't resist asking Lu Ze: "How can my name be there?"
Lu Ze snorted and said: "The establishment of a company must have two or more shareholders. When I registered, I simply put your name down."
In fact, a one-person shareholder was possible, but the minimum registered capital would be higher. Tianchen was actually under sole proprietorship of the founding person. As for why Xiang Han appeared in the registration information, it was because Lu Ze hacked into their website and changed it. After all, the time was too short to do anything.
Xiang Han was very touched and felt that the target was really good to the original host, even giving him half of the company. Unfortunately, later on, he fell for the protagonist and suffered... Something’s wrong. After the original target became successful, how come the original host did not manage to reap any benefits at all and ended up Miserable instead?
After voicing his doubts to the system, system helplessly told him: "Mr. Xiang, he lied to you."
What?!
These few days, he had worked hard to help him do his laundry, sweep the floor, call for takeaways and even spared no effort to create opportunities for him and the protagonist to be alone. Not only was he not grateful, he even deceived him. Where did the minimum trust between people go?
He immediately felt that his grateful feelings had been wasted.
Lu Ze was very busy. After a long while, he suddenly said: "Call for takeaway. I have to work overtime tonight."
Xiang Han glared at him, and said, "My work hours are over, call it by yourself. I’m not staying."
What's wrong with him? Lu Ze looked at him in confusion then looked at the screen. He no longer had the heart to continue working and packed up to leave.
Sun Shuya had just brought a report up. Lu Ze stopped in his tracks and said: "Good work, I'll bring it back and look over it."
"Okay." Sun Shuya smiled but after Lu Ze left, his smile disappeared instantly.
Two weeks ago, Lu Ze could still be described as a workaholic. Overtime until two or three in the morning was the norm. Sun Shuya would stay with him every time. The number of times he stayed will naturally be noticed by Lu Ze. With his hard work and outstanding abilities, he quickly received praise. After becoming more familiar, it became normal to call takeaway, chat, and discuss work while working overtime.
However, everything changed once Xiang Han entered the company. Every time once Xiang Han left, Lu Ze will certainly leave within half an hour. Even if there were the occasional overtime, Xiang Han would certainly be there. In particular, after the rumors, not only was Xiang Han not pushed away, Lu Ze became even more concerned with him.
Thinking of this, Sun Shuya’s face became gloomy. If he could not force Xiang Han to leave before the company faces its crisis, it will not be him who will solve it with Lu Ze.
It seems that he needs to find out what happened in the bar that night and what happened to Zhao Handong. That man had been calm for too long, staying silent was really not his style.
That’s right, Zhao Handong always hated Lu Ze. As long as it is anything owned by Lu Ze, he will want to destroy it. If Zhao Handong knows how concerned Lu Ze was about Xiang Han, perhaps... he wouldn't even need to move his hands.
Despite knowing that after being targetted by Zhao Handong, that madman, his end will not be good, Sun Shuya can only apologize to Xiang Han in his heart. Lu Ze should have been his, he will not give up like before and give his people away.
When Lu Ze returned home, he smelt a strange ... smell after opening the door. Changing his shoes and walking into the living room, he saw Xiang Han sitting on the sofa cross-legged. He was holding an oily carton in one hand and a bamboo stick in the other. He did not know what he was eating.
Lu Ze quietly approached and when he saw the dark object inside, his face became as dark as it. He immediately took it and toss it into the trash.
Xiang Han was unprepared and stared at him in a daze. By the time he recovered, his beloved fried smelly tofu[1] had already become one with the garbage.
He flew into a rage: "Why did you throw my food away? I bought that with my own money!"
"How many times have I told you? You shouldn’t eat fried food because of your weak stomach. And look at what kind of stuff you eat. Is this something people can smell?" Lu Ze's anger was no less than his.
Xiang Han took a deep breath and then said, "There’s not much smell ah and it's delicious."
Lu Ze was simply about to collapse and gritted his teeth: "Open the window." He couldn't stay in this room for one more second.
Xiang Han felt very wronged. Obviously, it was him who threw his food away.
After opening the window, he directly returned to the room with his pillow. But after ten minutes in bed, he couldn't help but sit up again: [Little nine, don’t you think he is too much?]
System: [But sir, this is the target’s home. The food you were eating had a strong smell, it is normal for the target to be unhappy."
Xiang Han became silent and after a few moments, asked weakly: [is it really that smelly?] Even if it was unpleasant, couldn't he just tell him? Did he have to snatch it from him and throw it away?
[Mr. Xiang, you are only here to promote the feelings between him and the protagonist. Why should you care what he thinks?] The system was very puzzled.
Xiang Han was also stunned and after a short while, said: [That's right, why should I care?] After saying this, he pulled his quilt over his head and fell asleep.
For his safety, Lu Ze did not allow Xiang Han to cook. After he finished preparing the food and saw that Xiang Han was still asleep, he ate by himself.
After dinner, he directly went back into his room to work. By the time he was done, it was already early in the morning. He went into the kitchen to take a look. Seeing there was no change in the amount of porridge, he could not help but some frown.
Although he did not call Xiang Han to eat, he did not expect the other person to not eat until now. Lu Ze was a little worried and subconsciously walked towards Xiang Han room.
In the middle of the night, Xiang Han’s stomach had begun to hurt again and had wrapped himself in his quilt.
Lu Ze saw that his face was white from the pain, his forehead full of sweat that made his hair damp and felt distressed. Touching his face, Lu Ze asked, “Does it hurt badly? Have you taken your medicine? Forget it, put on something first and we’ll go to the hospital."
After he finished, he went straight to the closet to search for clothes. Xiang Han took a while to process what was just said, “No need, no need, I already took the medicine, it should stop hurting soon.” The main thing was that the system had just checked and told him that he should be fine after taking the medicine.
Lu Ze was not assured and in the end, still dragged him to the hospital. This time, he was not hospitalized, but the two men received several cold glares from the doctors.
When they went back home, Xiang Han yawned tiredly and couldn't help but complain: "I already said there was no need but you still..."
"Be Quiet." Lu Ze was also suppressing his anger. All that he had done was for whom? This heartless little white-eyed wolf[2]!

ReplyDeleteAh this cute lil mc is just doing his best.
The misunderstandings are strong in this one... The problem is that they've already discussed their feelings, but they have opposing objectives anyway. I wonder if Sun Shuya and Dhao Handong will help them straighten things out.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter♡
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter!
ReplyDeleteYay, I was excited to see an update after leaving a comment yesterday following a rereading. I wonder what exactly he was eating...
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I realized I didn't clarify what it was. Basically it was stinky tofu(It was mentioned in the text if you missed it) but if you are unfamiliar with it, it is basically a popular snack in Asia. I added in footnotes!
DeleteThanks for the information! I've eaten lots of tofu, but I don't think I've ever come across stinky tofu before. 🤔 I'll have to ask my family about it...
