“Dad, don’t be angry. If you want to scold me, you should just do it.” Bai Xin begged for mercy with teary eyes.
This trick was very effective toward Bai Wei, who had always doted on his son. Bai Wei patted his son lightly in disappointment, then he stood up and glared at Su Jun again as he said, “You owe me this time, Mr. Su.”
Su Jun raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement.
Bai Wei then carried the bruised up Bai Xin and strode away.
After making such a big misjudgment, Su Jun became emotionally drained, especially when it came to Su Qiao. Su Jun should’ve listened to his little brother’s words as a big brother.
Thinking of this, Su Jun silently shook his head, picked up Su Su, and was about to leave when Su Su leaned into his arms and reminded him worriedly, “Should we go and look for Fifth Brother?”
Su Su knew that her fifth brother was sad because Su Jun did not trust him. She thought that Su Qiao might do something drastic.
However, after Su Jun heard this, he only said indifferently, “Don’t worry about him. You should return to class, Su Su.”
‘That little brat is just going to run away for a few days and hang out with his troublesome friends again. He’ll come running home when he runs out of money.’
After sending Su Su back to her classroom, Su Jun received a phone call from Lu Liang. “Mr. Su, the chauffeur you asked for, has already arrived at the office. She has been waiting here for twenty minutes.”
“Okay, I’m on my way over now. Send her résumé over to me right now,” Su Jun said as he walked toward his car.
He tapped on his phone and read Lu Liang’s message about the driver he had chosen for Su Su. The woman’s name was Wan Shuang. She was twenty-seven years old and unmarried. She had been specially recruited into the army at the age of twelve. She also started training with the Special Forces at twenty and retired at twenty-six.
If Su Jun had not explicitly requested for a woman, he would have almost mistaken Wan Shuang for a man because she had a crew cut and an expressionless face.
After spending fourteen years in the military and six years in the Special Forces, Wan Shuang was indeed worthy of protecting Su Su.
Su Jun looked at Wan Shuang’s résumé and was very satisfied. He then quickly drove to the Su Corporation’s building.
When Su Jun strode into the office, Lu Liang was already waiting at the door. Seeing that Su Jun had finally arrived, Lu Liang had an indifferent expression on his face.
Sensing that something was wrong with Lu Liang, Su Jun tilted his head and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you not get enough sleep last night?”
Lu Liang scratched the back of his head and said nervously, “I-I think you should come back later.”
“What’s wrong?” Su Jun didn’t take it to heart. He stood at the reception room’s entrance and put his hand on the doorknob.
Lu Liang’s expression worsened. With a sad face, he said, “Miss Wan has a bad temper. She has been waiting for you for about forty minutes now. She kept cursing at me, asking me when you would arrive.”
However, before Lu Liang could finish his sentence, Su Jun had already pushed open the door and entered. He immediately heard the woman yelling angrily, “I’m here for a f*cking job interview. I didn’t come here to screw around. You made me wait for so long. You’ve made a horrible impression already.”
Su Jun remained calm. He then looked at the short-haired woman sitting on the sofa with her back facing him and asked, “Are you disappointed in me, Miss Wan?”
However, when the short-haired woman turned around, both of them became stunned.
Wan Shuang’s voice instantly rose a notch as she said in surprise, “Why are you here?”
Su Jun sized up Wan Shuang’s appearance. She was the woman who had helped the old lady with her schemes this morning and threatened to drag Su Jun to the police station.
Su Jun’s face immediately darkened when he thought of what Wan Shuang had done.
Ignoring Wan Shuang’s surprised cries, Su Jun frowned and turned to ask Lu Liang, “Didn’t she have a crew cut in the photo you gave me?”
If Su Jun had recognized this silly woman in the résumé, he would have never let her into the building.
Wan Shuang was stunned for a moment and was very dissatisfied with Su Jun’s attitude. She said, “That picture was taken when I just retired from the army. That was a year ago, and my hair has grown out a little bit. Is there a problem?”
Su Jun sneered and replied, “Of course, there’s a problem. Alright, Miss Wan, you can leave now. I am not interested in hiring you.”
He would not accept such a woman who could not distinguish right from wrong.
Wan Shuang widened her eyes and glared at Su Jun. She then snarled, “So be it! I didn’t want to work for you anyway!”
After saying that, Wan Shuang rushed toward the exit and proceeded to walk out. She suddenly thought of something as she brushed past Su Jun. Wan Shuang then paused and said, “Hey, I misunderstood the situation this morning. I thought that you hurt that old lady.. But I soon realized that I was wrong.”
