Chapter 318: Chapter 208: A Green Glow on Xia Bin’s Forehead

Underneath, she wore a white cashmere top.

Her chest was magnificent, and Chen Xiao couldn’t help but sneak a few more glances. Lin Ya pretended not to notice.

’He’s a young man, after all,’ she thought. ’It’s understandable if he gets a little impulsive!’

Besides, it just proved she was charming.

She wore a pair of black pencil pants that perfectly accentuated her slender, curvaceous figure—big in all the right places and slim where it counted.

The pants were a bit low-rise, so when she sat down and leaned forward, a small sliver of her pale lower back was revealed.

Chen Xiao couldn’t resist sneaking a few glances. He knew his Endurance Value was acting up again.

’Are you serious, making me lose face in front of my female subordinate? But then again,’ he thought, ’this isn’t the first time. It was even more ridiculous with Gao Yue yesterday.’

Thinking of Gao Yue reminded him of her fight with Xiao Si over the "number three" position. He remembered they had even talked about getting in line.

’Forget the line. You can all come at once,’ he mused.

Chen Xiao took a sip of cool water, trying to clear his head.

The situation at Lin Ya’s office was simple. She didn’t usually drink tea, and the tea she kept for guests was terrible, so Chen Xiao had just asked for a glass of cool water.

"Once the headquarters building is finished, you should move over there as soon as possible. This place is just too small; you can’t fit anything in here!"

Chen Xiao was just making small talk to distract himself from the frustration caused by his Endurance Value, but he had no idea Lin Ya was thinking, ’Does he really want to put a bed in here?’

Then Chen Xiao continued, "If I wanted to come over and play cards sometime, there’s no room to even spread them out!"

Chen Xiao was talking about Guandan, a type of card game, but Lin Ya’s mind went to *that* kind of "playing cards."

Even though she had no personal experience, short-form video was so popular these days that she’d heard all the jokes.

’Is President Chen already hinting at it so blatantly?’ She lowered her head, her face flushing, unsure how to respond.

’He looks like such a refined gentleman. How can he be so straightforward about something like this?’

"Alright, I won’t keep you from your work. I’m going to go see if Xu is done with his call. If anything comes up later, you can text or call me directly!"

He and Lin Ya exchanged contact information. Lin Ya got up to open the door for him. The office was so narrow that when Chen Xiao stood up, he was right behind her. There wasn’t even enough room to walk side by side.

Suddenly, there was the sound of an argument outside. "President Xia, President Lin’s office really has a guest. You can’t go in right now!"

"I just want to take a look! I’ll just say a few quick words to President Lin!"

Just as Lin Ya was pulling the door open, Xia Bin pushed it from the outside.

Caught off guard, Lin Ya was struck by the door and stumbled back into Chen Xiao. It all happened so fast. Chen Xiao tripped and fell, landing in a sitting position with his back against the wall.

As for Lin Ya, she landed with her bottom sitting squarely in Chen Xiao’s lap. And that damn Endurance Value flared up again.

The fabric of her pants was soft, and to keep the lines of the pants smooth, her choice of underwear underneath was usually very particular.

The impact of the landing had one of them pressed down tight, and the other jabbing up hard.

Lin Ya let out a cry, because just then, Xia Bin was standing at the door, gawking at the scene.

Lin Ya tried to get up, which meant she first had to shift into a crouch. To help her, Chen Xiao put his hands on her waist.

Ignoring Xia Bin’s beet-red face, he was still savoring the exquisite sensation from a moment ago.

"Fuck! I’ll kill you!"

Like a madman, Xia Bin grabbed a nearby pen holder and hurled it at Chen Xiao. It was a familiar motion—he had a habit of throwing things in his own office.

Lin Ya gasped. Thinking of nothing else, she threw herself on top of Chen Xiao, trying to shield him.

Afraid it would hit Chen Xiao’s head, she covered his head with her entire upper body.

This all happened in the blink of an eye. Xia Bin was already enraged seeing Lin Ya shield Chen Xiao, but when he saw the look of lingering enjoyment on Chen Xiao’s face, he was ready to explode.

’Cuckolding me right to my face? This is the last straw!’

Luckily, hearing the noise, a few employees from outside rushed in and held Xia Bin back.

A curious one peeked inside. ’Holy crap, my eyes!’

’Why is President Lin straddling a man who’s sitting against the wall in the corner, and why does he have that look of lingering enjoyment on his face? What a scene!’

’Did we just walk in on them in the act... against the wall?’

’It’s better not to know about this kind of thing, lest we get "silenced"!’

They dragged Xia Bin away, not forgetting to close the door behind them. Xia Bin was still trying to break free and go after Chen Xiao, but his scrawny frame was pinned, unable to move an inch.

"President Xia, please don’t disrupt our work environment, or we’ll have security escort you out!"

"Are you okay, President Lin?"

Chen Xiao asked, one hand stroking her back. He had seen that the pen holder was plastic, so she should be fine.

Lin Ya was so red in the face she couldn’t lift her head. ’You’re asking if I’m okay? Then let go so I can get up! I’m sitting on... *that thing*... my whole body is tingling so much I can’t move!’

The crucial part was that Chen Xiao shifted subconsciously, and Lin Ya’s body went limp. ’This President Chen... how can he be so wicked!’

Chen Xiao really wasn’t doing it on purpose. In his mind, he was busy pleading his own innocence. ’It was the Endurance Value! If you’re going to curse someone, curse it!’

"President Chen, can I get up now?"

"Go ahead, but how am I supposed to get up like this?"

’She can feel it anyway, so I might as well not hide it,’ he thought. ’I’m getting more and more shameless these days.’

’How *you’re* supposed to get up is not a problem I can solve! Even if you want to "play cards," you can’t possibly mean right now! Xia Bin is right outside, and Xu Jun could be back any minute!’

She was overthinking it. Chen Xiao was just waiting for it to go down on its own. If he had to rely on her for... relief, he’d be stuck here for at least three hours.

He released his hands. Lin Ya pushed up with all her strength, pressing down hard as she did. The motion elicited a reaction from both of them. Her body went limp, and she fell right back down.

As she slammed down hard, Chen Xiao let out a grunt, and Lin Ya also let out a strange shriek.
