My Villain Is Super Sweet (GL) - CHAPTER 25

“Then you can discuss it with Lin Lang,” Gu Minglan replied casually.

Originally, when she poached Lin Lang, a significant part of her intention was to cultivate a capable assistant for her daughter.

Everyone had smoothed over their relationships, so even if Lin Lang decided to start her own business in a few years, they could still look out for each other.

I just didn’t expect it to happen so quickly; my own daughter took the initiative to ask for someone.

However, she wasn’t surprised; the two of them seemed to get along quite well, and their relationship was quite good. Every time Qingci came back, Lin Lang was always there to accompany her.

Since they have a good relationship on their own, they can just figure it out themselves.

She shouldn’t get involved in the affairs of the young people.

Lin Lang naturally had no problem with it; after all, it was all about President Gu. Of course, the most important thing is that over here with the young CEO, there might be extra benefits!

Her intentions are impure; she is always thinking about how to create opportunities for kisses and hugs. It’s obvious which side to choose.

Just as she was about to agree, it suddenly occurred to her that in her dreams, Gu Qingci and Lin Yao were a golden duo. The two of them teamed up, unstoppable by gods or Buddha, their cooperation seamless.

So, she blurted out without thinking, “I know someone who would definitely work great with you.” “I know someone who would definitely work great with you.”

Gu Qingci was momentarily stunned, unable to believe it—Lin Lang rejected her?!

Because she was too shocked, she didn’t even have time to feel angry and asked in surprise, “You don’t want to?” “You’re not willing?”

Lin Lang instantly reacted, responding reflexively, “Yes, yes, I agree!” “Yes, yes, I do!”

Hey! Who wouldn’t want such a good deal?!

“Really? You just said you were going to recommend someone else to me.” Gu Qingci looked at her suspiciously, his tone gentle and particularly democratic: “If you don’t want to, I can’t force you, right?”

Lin Lang imitated Gu Qingci’s phrasing, implying, “How could I not be willing? The conditions are good, the benefits are great, and so many people can’t even get this opportunity. You choosing me is a huge honor for me, and I should seize it well and serve you well, right?”

This sounds nice, and the young lady is satisfied.

After a moment, she realized there was a hidden meaning in those words! As she pondered it more deeply, her face slowly turned red.

She was both embarrassed and angry, and she stomped on Lin Lang’s foot hard, even grinding it in!

What does it mean to have good conditions and benefits? And what does it mean to serve you well?

So, you mean I hired you as my assistant, and now I have to offer my body in return?

This is called verbal harassment, do you know that?!

Lin Lang would certainly not admit it.

Insist that what you say is just the literal meaning, with no extended meaning at all.

Still teasing the young lady: “If you want it to be like you imagine, I can do that too!”

The words are a bit roundabout, but those who understand get it.

“Heh!” After the young lady calmed down from her embarrassment and anger, she couldn’t just let Lin Lang tease her all the time, right?

She crossed her arms and looked down at Lin Lang from a superior position, “No way, how could I let you suffer? I have another…”

Tsk, went too far, the young lady is angry.

Lin Lang was particularly astute and decisively backed down. With a lowered head and a submissive demeanor, he pleaded, “Please, I really hope to be Assistant Gu’s aide. Don’t abandon me, I’m begging you!”

Gu Qingci: ……

You really know how to bend and stretch!

She let out a light snort, too late!

You made me tease you, bully people.

Can’t just let it slide without a little payback, right?

“I just remembered, President Lin, you can’t just leave your company and move to Beijing permanently.”

Lin Lang angrily tried to assert his presence, weakly saying, “I can do it.”

Gu Qingci pretended not to hear and continued his own, “Let me think… there are quite a few suitable candidates at Huada…”

“Not suitable.” Lin Lang reached out and grabbed the young lady’s hand, giving it a gentle shake. His eyes sparkled, filled with “Choose me, choose me!”

Not only can you gain a capable assistant, but you also get a buy-one-get-one-free deal with a girlfriend included!

Gu Qingci shook vigorously but couldn’t shake him off. Instead, Lin Lang, who had stood up, closed the distance and pulled him into an embrace.

Lin Lang hugged Gu Qingci from behind, almost whispering in her ear, his voice gentle yet firm: “No one is more suitable than me, do you think so, hmm?”

Being held like this by Lin Lang, Gu Qingci bit her lip, trying to push away Lin Lang’s hand that was around her waist, but her little strength couldn’t budge Lin Lang at all.

Struggling to turn his face, Gu Qingci’s voice sounded weak and helpless: “Lin Lang, don’t…”

If you keep mooching like this, the window paper will never stick again, you bastard!

“Don’t what?” Lin Lang asked with great interest.

“Don’t, don’t do that,” Gu Qingci replied shyly and timidly.
“What do you mean by ‘this’?”

The young lady was annoyed by the teasing and called out her name emphatically: “Lin Lang!”

Lin Lang really wanted to just hug and kiss like this.

But it’s not the right time yet, don’t push the young lady too hard.

If she gets angry and decides to leave, it won’t be worth the loss.

She reluctantly pulled back a bit, no longer being so close that it was almost like a kiss. Persistently, she asked again, “Am I the
only one who fits, hmm?”

Gu Qingci’s face turned crimson, and suppressing her embarrassment, she said, “Yes.”

If we don’t say she’s the most suitable, I can’t even imagine what else this bastard might do!

Saying that I need to consider other candidates was just to make her mad, but who knew this bastard would take advantage of his strength and act like a thug.

Being a rogue comes with a price.

For the next two days, Gu Qingci refused to give Lin Lang any opportunity to be alone with him.

Keep your distance for safety.

He even accused her through a video call, saying, “We clearly agreed to get along like before!”

How can you be unreasonable and act like a thug?

Lin Lang sincerely reflected on herself, saying, “You said there are many suitable candidates, and I couldn’t stand it.” As she spoke, she became more assertive, “I was jealous!”

Are you still being reasonable?

Gu Qingci was both angry and amused, muttering, “Who made you angry first? The way you talk…”

Who told you to say those suggestive things to me? You get teased and still expect me not to be angry?

This Lin Lang didn’t bother to deny it and straightforwardly admitted it. However, she still stubbornly teased Gu Qingci, saying,

“Isn’t it allowed for someone to have a beautiful vision for the future?”

“Who doesn’t like to be the first to benefit from the situation?”

Then, with a hint of grievance, they muttered, “Clearly, I’m the only one who’s suitable, right?”

When it comes to talking dirty, ten Gu Qingci combined can’t compare to her.

The two of them exchanged barbs from a distance, going back and forth for two days. In the end, Lin Lang threw a straight ball: “So, do you dislike me treating you like that day?”

Separated by the screen, without being enveloped by Lin Lang’s presence, Gu Qingci was much more open and candid: “Well, it’s not that I particularly dislike it.”

It feels pretty good.

She thought for a moment and added, “I just need a little more time.
I don’t want to rush into making a decision.”

Let’s take it slow, get to know each other better, and not rush things, okay?

“Okay.” Lin Lang readily agreed. She wasn’t in a hurry anyway; she just couldn’t resist teasing her. Whenever she teased her too much, the usually reserved and composed person would become charmingly seductive out of embarrassment, her demeanor utterly captivating.

Gu Qingci looked at Lin Lang with eyes full of suspicion.

This guy’s credit is about to go bankrupt!

Clearly, we agreed to interact like before, but recently she has taken to hugging me whenever she gets the chance.

Saying “If you feel uncomfortable, you can stop at any time,” didn’t she stop that day? Didn’t she refuse? Didn’t she almost end up with a kiss and a hug anyway?

Talking is sweeter than singing, but in the end, it’s all a lie!
Verbal promises have already been proven unreliable through personal experience.

Then we can only resort to physical isolation!

Lin Lang immediately became obedient.

It’s not because the young lady took physical isolation measures; even if the two went to the capital together again, they wouldn’t be alone together all the time.

This time, they even opened two rooms.

It’s because she has already tested the young lady’s bottom line and true attitude, achieving the phased results she wanted. There’s no need to keep provoking the young lady and dancing around in her sensitive zone anymore.

That’s not worth the cost!

After all, Gu Qingci’s vacation is about to end, and at most she can stay for another three or four days before flying back to school. If things go too far, once the young lady goes abroad, her cooling-off period could be as short as half a year or as long as a year. People might repeatedly ponder and mistakenly think that she is so eager, under the illusion that she just wants to do everything possible to get someone into bed…

Then decisively abandon it!

That was like a bolt from the blue, a tragedy on earth!

This time coming to Beijing, the main purpose is to carry out the equity transfer and the delivery of the EF8 independent laboratory.

After several attempts, Mr. Luo finally made up his mind—mainly because Gu Qingci was about to fly abroad, and he really couldn’t afford to delay for a year or so. He could only cut through the mess quickly, taking advantage of Gu Qingci still being in the country, to resolve the matter swiftly and get it done as soon as possible.

This opportunity is truly too good to pass up; he can’t bear to give it up.

Moreover, exchanging the EF8 independent laboratory is not a loss for him. The main R&D project of this laboratory has been established for almost two years now, and no results have come out, with repeated experiments and constant failures.

To put it bluntly, it’s just a gold-swallowing beast.

For the past six months, he has been withholding funds, no longer allocating research and development funds to the lab, merely keeping the staff on payroll, with the original intention of rendering them useless.

Do the people inside want to leave?

How can researchers who have produced no results afford to pay huge breach of contract and confidentiality fees?

Even though he was wary of Yuan Ying, fearing that this would be like letting a tiger return to the mountain and leaving himself with a hidden danger, he thought to himself that as long as he seized this opportunity and used equity to connect with this line, the road ahead would at least be smooth for a large part.

He is confident in himself; if he gets connected and paves the way, in two or three years, he can completely develop the company to a level that Yuan Ying might never reach in his lifetime.

The elephant’s hatred and resentment towards the ant, how could it ever be taken to heart?

If he remains above her, he has nothing to fear from any potential future retaliation.

This time, Gu Qingci and Lin Lang didn’t have it as easy and pleasant as last time.

Gu Qingci had his own hired team dedicated to managing and following up on investment projects. At this moment, lawyers, accountants, and specialists handling various business affairs were all brought over.

They meticulously reviewed all the documents, files, and equipment to be delivered, as well as the “contracts of servitude” of the lab team members, while simultaneously processing numerous new procedures to ensure the lab was officially under Gu Qingci’s name.

The two of them were so busy they were working day and night.

Don’t even talk about romance; we barely have time to share a few private words.

Busy until January 12th, Gu Qingci finally left.

Before leaving, the laboratory affairs had already been mostly sorted out, and the procedures that Gu Qingci needed to handle personally were also nearly completed. The remaining task was to slowly go through the processes with the relevant departments, step by step.

Gu Qingci signed the necessary documents and granted the required authorizations, while casually leaving Lin Lang in the capital to keep an eye on things.

On the day Gu Qingci left, Lin Lang made time to take her to the airport. It was a rare occasion for the two to be alone together, even though it was in a crowded public place.

Lin Lang pushed the suitcase with one hand, accompanying Gu Qingci to check in and check the luggage. Just as they were about to enter the security check area, she shook the hand they were holding and asked, “Don’t you have anything you want to say to me?”

“Hmm?” Gu Qingci seemed to be thinking seriously. After a while, she opened her arms, took the initiative to hug Lin Lang, buried her face in her shoulder, gently rubbed against her, and softly said,
“I’ll work hard to come back early?”

Lin Lang also lowered his voice, softly coaxing in her ear, “I mean, shouldn’t we kiss goodbye?”
