Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Hao Jian, you jackass, sleeping on the job again!" As soon as Xiao Qiang walked into the office, she saw Hao Jian sprawled out on the sofa, snoring away with drool at the corner of his mouth.

"Hmm." Hao Jian frowned, turned over, and muttered discontentedly, "Loud voice, bad temper, those are signs of 'excessive vigor'."

"You. Get up!" Xiao Qiang was furious, reaching out to shake Hao Jian awake. The nerve of this guy, daring to say such things about her, and she's still a pure maiden, okay?

But she tugged too hard, and ripped off the buttons of Hao Jian's shirt, revealing half of his chest in front of her.

Xiao Qiang immediately withdrew her hand shyly, looking somewhat at a loss.

Hao Jian looked at her gloomily and disdainfully said, "You sly hooligan!"

"Bastard, you really want to piss me off, don't you?" Xiao Qiang felt like strangling Hao Jian right there and then. First thing in the morning and already so annoying, how could her temper be good with him ticking her off all the time?

"What does it have to do with me? It's clearly you harboring an unrequited crush on me, and now you're taking it out on me, mixing business with personal vendetta!"

"Have a crush on you? Oh please, how can you be so full of yourself? Even if it were the last thing on Earth, I wouldn't choose you over any random cat or dog on the street!" Xiao Qiang roared.

Hearing this, Hao Jian immediately moved away from Xiao Qiang as if avoiding a plague, with a bizarre expression, he said, "I had no idea you're into such hobbies, liking to get frisky with animals? That's just evil, oh my goodness, my pure little heart aches."

"I'm gonna fight you!" Xiao Qiang lunged at him, raining down a flurry of punches on Hao Jian.

That asshole, always talking about R-rated stuff. If you're gonna say it, just say it, why always use yourself as an example?

"Move it! If you don't, I'm gonna lose my temper!" Hao Jian threatened fiercely.

"Lose your temper? Sure, show me what you got!" Xiao Qiang huffed, her punches still pelted Hao Jian's chest like raindrops.

"Alright, you asked for this!" Hao Jian roared, suddenly grabbed Xiao Qiang's hands, and found a specific spot on her waist to press down!

"You!" Xiao Qiang's cheeks flushed red, her body instantly went limp.

In that moment, she felt an unprecedented sensation spreading throughout her body.

With a weak, breathless voice, Xiao Qiang asked, "What... what did you just do to me?"

"I pressed an acupoint on you." Hao Jian said with a sly smirk.

"Which acupoint?" Xiao Qiang thought she'd heard wrong.

"An acupoint that can't be spoken of in our country." Hao Jian laughed. He had learned it from a secret book he found on a flower-thief he captured. Hao Jian reckoned it might come in handy someday, so he remembered it, never expecting Xiao Qiang to be his first test subject.

"Bullshit! There's no such disgusting acupoint, I've never even heard of it." Xiao Qiang's face was crimson as she retorted, both embarrassed and angry.

"No? Then what was that expression just now?" Hao Jian sneered.

"I didn't, I only screamed because you pinched me hard!" Xiao Qiang flatly denied, too embarrassed to admit it.

"Fine, let's just say it didn't happen, alright?" Hao Jian said.

Just as Xiao Qiang was about to get off him, the door, unfortunately, swung open at that very moment.

Both Hao Jian and Xiao Qiang's faces darkened; if someone saw them now, jumping into the Yellow River wouldn't wash them clean.

Then, a woman incredibly enchanting and beautiful appeared before them.

And as she caught sight of Hao Jian and Xiao Qiang in such a compromising position, her face froze.

Hao Jian and Xiao Qiang were petrified on the spot as well.

After about five seconds of awkward silence, Gao Jiping finally snapped back to reality, somewhat embarrassed, she said, "I'm sorry, is this a bad time? If so, I can come back later."

"No need, no need." Hao Jian quickly separated from Xiao Qiang and hurried over to Gao Jiping.

"How did you know I was here?" Hao Jian asked Gao Jiping, feeling extremely awkward. He hadn't expected Gao Jiping to come looking for him.

"Do you think it would be difficult for someone with my resources to find you?" Gao Jiping said with a smile. With her network and connections, finding someone in Hua City was easier than easy.

"Not really, so, what brings you here? If it's just to say thanks, forget it. I already said that I only acted that day because I couldn't stand those guys, it wasn't really to save you." Hao Jian explained.

"I'm here for two reasons today. The first is indeed to say thank you, and the second is to discuss some matters with you." Gao Jiping said with a smile.

"What matters?" Hao Jian was puzzled; he couldn't imagine what he had to discuss with Gao Jiping.

"It's almost lunchtime, how about we talk over a meal?" Gao Jiping took the initiative to invite.

Hao Jian looked back to see Xiao Qiang with her back to him, appearing mortified. He thought it best to keep away from Xiao Qiang at the moment to avoid further awkwardness.

"Lead the way." Hao Jian said.

Gao Jiping glanced at Xiao Qiang, and seeing that Hao Jian hadn't invited her, she didn't speak up either.

Only after Gao Jiping and Hao Jian had left did Xiao Qiang grumble resentfully, "Heartbreaker, close to getting married and still entangled with some shady woman!"

At that moment, as if she discovered something, her face suddenly became as red as if she had a high fever, and she hurried into the restroom.
