Chapter 476: Mother

Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Luo Yuan bumped into Chen Xinjie on his way back to the City Hall. She had stacks of documents in her hands as she walked towards him. The ugly work uniform became very sexy on her attractive body. Glancing at her neck, down to her chest, he could almost see the shape of her perky boobs in his mind.

Looking at Luo Yuan’s eyes, she started feeling uncomfortable. She wanted to avoid him but it was too late. The only thing she could do was pretend that she did not see him.

Soon they were passing by each other, Luo Yuan stopped walking. He whispered in a deep voice into Chen Xinjie’s ear, ”Drop by my office later!”

Chen Xinjie was stunned, she was mad and bit her lips. What does that even mean?

She was just a clerk in the City Hall, even her superiors did not have the right to enter Luo Yuan’s office. Many people were watching the scene take place, she as the beauty she was would definitely be the topic of gossip if she ever did enter Luo Yuan’s office.

…

Back at his office, Luo Yuan sat on his chair and read the documents that he had for the day. Soon his secretary was there with a cup of hot tea. The heat did not bother him, he had a gulp straight away and said to Cheng Guanghui, ”Chen Xinjie from the Organization Department will drop by later. Just send her in when she’s here.”

The strange request did not surprise Cheng Guanghui, ”Yes, Mayor! Is there anything else?” She said.

”No, you’re dismissed!” He replied.

”Yes, Mayor. Let me know if you need me,” Cheng Guanghui said as left the office and closed the door softly behind her.

Luo Yuan glanced at him and proceeded with the documents. Now that he was the mayor, what people thought of him did not bother him anymore. He had a bad reputation for being promiscuous anyway and everyone in the management department knew it. The women he had at home was a prove to the rumor.

He would never be a clean leader. Although everybody knew about his behavior, nobody would dare say anything. As long as he was alive, he was still a godlike being to people, and that was what they published. In the eye of politics, this was nothing.

Luo Yuan waited for more than 10 minutes. He had gone through all the documents that he had for the day and had a couple of tea but Chen Xinjie was not there.

He forced a smile. His smile had the power to make everyone obey him but that did not seem to work on women. He looked at the time and was ready to head out for lunch. He could sense that Chen Xinjie was near.

She held her head down while she walked swiftly towards his office. She hesitated at the door for awhile before she decided to step into his office.

”Mayor Luo, what can I do for you?” She looked away while she talked to him, her face expressionless.

”What took you so long? I have been waiting for a long time!” Luo Yuan grumbled, genuinely upset with the delay.

”I’m busy working!” Chen Xinjie said without making eye contact with Luo Yuan.

”Look at me when you talk to me. Where did your courage to seduce me go?” Luo Yuan scoffed.

”I was just doing my job!” Chen Xinjie said and bit her lips. Her eyes were red with anger. She could not hold the wall that she put up any longer. An intense shame overwhelmed her. She was tearing up. She was never a flirtatious person but her job had made her do things that she did not want to do, one of them placing her in this awkward predicament.

Between the benefit of the country and her personal relationship, her choice was the first one. But what was wrong with that? It was all over, why would he want to bring it up?

Luo Yuan stood up and said in all seriousness, ”Who instructed you to do that? The director of the Firearms Bureau? Some information department that despises evolved humans? Or was it the high committee?”

”None of them exist anymore, what’s the point of saying all that,” Chen Xinjie said, shocked and panicked with his hostile questioning. She looked at Luo Yuan innocently hoping that he could stop asking her about it.

Her status at the Firearms Bureau was not a simple affair. Apart from the status that she held, she was secretly one of the members of the Special Information Department and she was quite highly ranked too.

Although the organization was destroyed in the disaster, there were some of the members who remained in Hope City and were absorbed into the governmental department. If the investigation persisted, there would be much more people involved.

Worse, the person who was investigating it all would hold the fate of mankind in his or her hands!

”If those organizations don’t exist anymore, then which organization do you belong to right now?” Luo Yuan asked, as he walked closer to her and whispered into her ear.

”Be… belong…” she mumbled. Feeling Luo Yuan’s breath, she felt extremely uncomfortable and slightly aroused against her better judgment. She composed herself and cleared her throat, saying ”I belong to the Hope City’s Organization Department!”

”Then who do you report to in the department?” Luo Yuan leaned closer to her, his tone becoming more and more menacing.

”Stand… standing committee!” she stuttered. As Luo Yuan got closer to her, Chen Xinjie felt something was wrong. She had no idea what he was up to.

”And who does the standing committee report to?” Luo Yuan was now behind her. His fingers lightly touched her body, caressing her ample curves.

Now, even an idiot knew what Luo Yuan was up to. She was furious, she looked away but did not say a thing.

”It’s okay if you don’t tell me, as long as you know that you are to adhere to my instructions,” Luo Yuan said, as he took his hand off her body and patted her shoulder. He continued, and said in a serious tone, ”Stay back at night, that’s an order!”

She was shocked to hear such a shameless request. She stepped on the back of Luo Yuan’s foot but not only he did not feel a thing, she almost twisted her leg. Looking at his handsome face, she suddenly had the urge to scratch his face.

”Shameless! That will never happen!” She snarled between pursed lips. She stared at Luo Yuan and said while biting her lips.

She was worried that people would gossip if she stayed any longer. She right herself, adjusted her uniform and left his office immediately.
