Chapter 291 The Beauty and the Boss's Love and Career (44 words)
Yun Suisi sat in the large chair in the study, his posture upright but unable to hide his exhaustion.
His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the smooth tabletop, producing a rhythmic sound.
Each blow felt like a blow to the heart, filling the entire study with a sense of oppression.
He closed his eyes slightly, his brow furrowed, as if sorting through a thousand and one matters in his mind, or perhaps weighing how to deal with the people in front of him.
At the same time, Changsheng, Rancang, and Lique stood on one side of the study as if facing a formidable enemy.
They exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a hint of tension and unease.
Their posture was stiff and reserved.
His hands unconsciously clasped together and then released in front of him, repeating this meaningless action, as if he were waiting for a final judgment of fate.
My heart was filled with trepidation and fear.
Yun Sui stood alone on the other side, his expression calm, his gaze quietly fixed on Yun Suisi, as if trying to figure out his thoughts.
The group thought to themselves in unison: It's finally here!
Yun Suisi coughed lightly, breaking the silence.
Without any unnecessary preamble, he went straight to the point, cutting to the chase.
However, his tone carried a strong sense of sarcasm, with a slight upward inflection, making it difficult to tell whether he was teasing or genuinely angry.
"You guys seem to have a very leisurely life, doing nothing all day long."
I'm swamped with work here, while you all seem to be having a great time.
His gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Changsheng, his eyes seeming to see right through him.
Changsheng felt a little flustered under that gaze. He swallowed hard and quickly explained:
"Boss, please don't misunderstand."
We've been working hard, but we haven't encountered any suitable tasks lately, so..."
His voice grew softer and softer, his confidence clearly waning. By the last few words, it was almost like a mosquito buzzing. Even he himself felt that his explanation was too weak and feeble.
Yun Suisi listened to Changsheng's explanation but did not respond immediately.
Instead, he slowly closed his eyes and gently pressed his temples with his fingers, trying to relieve the fatigue of the past few days.
His face looked slightly tired, and his brows were still furrowed, as if these worries were a heavy burden, making it hard for him to breathe.
Yun Sui watched from the side, her heart filled with heartache.
He stepped forward gently, stood behind Yun Suisi, and reached out his hands to gently massage his shoulders.
His movements were gentle and skillful, each one perfectly timed, as he tried to help Yun Suisi shake off his fatigue.
Feeling Yun Sui's concern, Yun Sui's anger subsided slightly.
He slightly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Changsheng and the other two again, his tone still carrying a hint of dissatisfaction:
"You guys are really something, turning the underground city upside down just to catch one person."
Do you know how much trouble this has caused?
Various forces are stirring, all waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves!
Upon hearing this, Changsheng hurriedly began to defend himself:
"Isn't this to help the boss get rid of the 'enemy forces'?"
We thought that as long as we caught that person, we could get rid of a major threat to you, but we never expected things to turn out like this..."
His face was filled with anxiety, as if he wanted to tear his heart out and show it to Yun Suisi to prove his loyalty.
Ran Cang then added:
"Yeah, boss."
We just wanted to take advantage of the dungeon's power, thinking that with more people there would be more strength and we could complete the mission faster.
Who knew it would escalate like this? We really didn't mean to.
Her voice carried a hint of ingratiation, and her face was full of smiles, hoping to appease Yun Suisi.
Li Que scratched his head and said helplessly:
"We didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion."
We really did follow the plan, but some unexpected things happened in the middle, and we just couldn't control the situation..."
A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes as he lowered his head, not daring to look Yun Suisi in the eye.
Yun Suisi snorted coldly and continued speaking in a sarcastic tone:
"Should I praise you as geniuses who come up with such a 'good' idea, since you are a once-in-a-century genius?"
"You make a mess of things, then just leave me to clean it up?"
His tone was full of sarcasm, which made the three of them lower their heads even further, like wilted eggplants.
None of the three dared to utter another sound, for fear of further angering Yun Suisi.
After Yun Sui finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Yun Sui, her tone carrying a hint of reproach:
"And you, Yun Sui, how could you join them in their nonsense?"
Where has your usual calmness and rationality gone?
Upon hearing this, Yun Sui paused slightly, her lips moved, but she didn't know how to respond.
He thought to himself: Although my main purpose in joining was for my wife, that's definitely not a reason to make a big fuss.
He could only stand there obediently, silently accepting Yun Suisi's reprimand, secretly vowing that he would never act so rashly again.
Yun Suisi sighed deeply, his sigh filled with exhaustion and helplessness.
He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping over everyone in front of him. His eyes held less of the sternness they had shown before, and more of a earnest meaning.
“You guys,” he said calmly, “you need to think things through more carefully in the future, and never be so reckless again.”
He paused slightly, as if giving everyone time to think, or perhaps organizing his own thoughts.
"What may seem like a small mistake could have had a serious chain reaction, do you know how serious that could be?"
His gaze fell on Changsheng, who unconsciously shrank back, as if he had returned to the moment when he was caught making a mistake.
“Every decision, every action, is like walking a tightrope; one wrong step leads to another.”
Yun Suisi's tone grew increasingly solemn.
"The environment we live in is complex and ever-changing, with various forces intertwined. If we are not careful, we may fall into an abyss of no return."
"Take this underground city incident, for example. I understand your desire to help me, and I'm very grateful for that."
His gaze softened slightly.
"But you can't do things just because you're enthusiastic; you also need a comprehensive plan and a prediction of the consequences."
He looked at Ran Cang, who had his head down and his face full of guilt.
"The forces in the underground city are deeply entrenched."
If we intervene rashly, even a slight misstep could trigger suspicion and conflict among all parties.
We could have solved the problem in a gentler, more subtle way.
Instead of making such a scene and embarrassing everyone.
Li Que secretly glanced at Yun Suisi, then quickly lowered his head again.
Yun Suisi continued:
“Li Que, you too, can’t always follow their impulsive actions.”
When you encounter problems, think things through and use your brain.
We are not a small, lone-wolf group; our every move affects the stability of the entire situation.
Finally, his gaze fell on Yun Sui, his eyes filled with complex emotions—love and expectation.
“Ah Sui, you are different from them. I have higher expectations for you.”
I know you're trying to help me, but next time, no matter the reason, please act calmly.
We must be responsible for each other's future and for our shared cause.
Yun Suisi paused, softening his tone:
"I don't want this to happen again, and I hope you all remember this lesson."
In the future, when you encounter problems, discuss them more, weigh the pros and cons more carefully, understand?
His voice carried an undeniable firmness, yet also a hint of anticipation.
He was waiting for everyone to give him a satisfactory answer.
Changsheng was the first to raise his head, his face filled with sincerity and determination, his tone brimming with regret and resolve:
"Boss, don't worry, we will definitely keep your words in mind."
