Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 608: Hand Up, Knife Down
"He, he..."
Lin Ruoxue pointed at that Huiteng Investment Group's President Chen, saying indignantly:
"He insulted me! He made unwelcome advances and even said he wanted me to accompany him..."
At this point, Lin Ruoxue was too embarrassed to continue. She hadn't expected that what started as a proper negotiation, especially since the man had proposed a cooperative plan that, of course, was beneficial for both sides.
However, it was quite clear that this scheme was hugely advantageous for Belle Group's recently initiated internet finance business.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxue naturally became very interested and wanted to discuss the matter of cooperation in more depth with the other party.
But unexpectedly, at this point, his gaze began to stray, yet Lin Ruoxue still maintained exceptional composure and continued negotiating with him.
However, this president of Huiteng Investment Group overstepped his bounds, insinuating that for cooperation to happen, Lin Ruoxue needed to show some "sincerity," all the while incessantly praising Lin Ruoxue for being beautiful and having a nice figure.
Although Lin Ruoxue was inexperienced in matters between men and women, she had, after all, been in the business world for many years and immediately understood his intentions, which caused her expression to darken.
As if oblivious, he continued to express his affection for Lin Ruoxue, even going so far as to say that he would make even greater concessions if she pleased him!
Meanwhile, his hand even reached towards Lin Ruoxue's slender waist—she had already been trying very hard to control herself, after all, this was a financial summit!
However, at this moment, she could no longer bear this man's shamelessness. Anger surged in her heart, and instantly, she slapped his face!
Although Su Chen did not know the specifics of what happened, to make Lin Ruoxue this angry, the guy must have gone too far.
Moreover, from what Lin Ruoxue had insinuated, it was clear this man had designs on her!
Su Chen's expression immediately turned cold, and the look he directed at the man was filled with chilling severity—so much so that the air temperature around seemed to drop several degrees!
People around, having heard Lin Ruoxue's few sentences in succession, also had a general understanding of the situation, and their gazes toward the president brimmed with disdain!
"Don't listen to her nonsense, she misunderstood me!"

President Chen, seeing everyone's gaze turn toward him, quickly said.
At that moment, he naturally tried to clear his name; he couldn't admit that he truly had indecent intentions towards Lin Ruoxue or that he harbored other thoughts.
He hadn't expected this woman to be so fierce, to slap him in public and even curse him for being shameless!
In his view, as businesspeople, what mattered was mutual benefit. He presented terms and conditions, so naturally, they should discuss!
Moreover, the cooperation terms he offered were so generous, he believed she would definitely be tempted!
Even if not tempted, at most, she would politely decline so as not to create an embarrassing situation for either side!
This was partly because of the occasion and partly because his group was much larger than Belle Group!
Any slightly rational person would know what to do, at the very least, they would not burn their bridges.
But he never imagined that the result would be like this...
He also did not understand Lin Ruoxue. On other matters, she might endure, but this was something she could not tolerate!
"Pei Man, this matter probably isn't simple, right?"
Pei Jian said, looking in Su Chen's direction.
"Of course it's not simple. Chen Jianxiong isn't the kind of man who can't walk straight when he sees a woman, and besides, even if he was, he wouldn't propose such a thing in this kind of setting. If he really had any designs, there would be plenty of opportunities to speak in private."
Pei Man scoffed coldly, looking in a certain direction:
"It seems like someone has made a serious miscalculation."
Chen Jianxiong's gaze toward Su Chen was as if he were looking at a ferocious beast, ready to tear him apart any moment!
Other people were also watching this man, curious as to what he would do next, considering Chen Jianxiong was no ordinary person!
"What do you want to do?"
Even though Su Chen's gaze was frightening, making Chen Jianxiong feel an immense pressure,
rationally, Chen Jianxiong didn't take Su Chen too seriously. In his mind, this was just a man living off a woman!
"I'm telling you, this is slander," Chen Jianxiong spat out haughtily, "What evidence does she have for anything she said?"
Indeed, although the incident just now was real, what could they do to him without evidence?
Even if there was evidence, he hadn't actually done anything yet. What then?
Su Chen glanced at him, completely ignoring his words, and asked icily,
"Whose hand was misbehaving just now?"
His face was devoid of color, the only thing present was bone-chilling coldness!
"I, I..."
Chen Jianxiong trembled all over at the sight of that gaze.
However, before he could finish his sentence, a sudden flash of cold light appeared, and blood immediately spurted out, like a gushing spring!
"Ahh~~~!"
A terribly miserable scream echoed through the hall as Chen Jianxiong instinctively grabbed his severed arm and began to jump around.
Everyone was shocked, and upon closer inspection, they saw that Chen Jianxiong's left hand had been cleanly cut off at the wrist, falling to the ground!
At the sight of this scene, everyone gasped in shock!
Was this young man too ruthless?
Chen Jianxiong hadn't even finished speaking when his wrist was abruptly severed!
Some of the more faint-hearted women even screamed, having never witnessed such a gruesome scene.
The young lords and ladies huddled together also felt their hearts skip a beat at this sight!
They hadn't expected this young man to be so merciless!
Especially those who had been humiliated by Su Chen, they were trembling with fear!
You must understand, this was occurring at a financial summit. Even though they were dying to lay hands on this fellow, they had to be mindful of their rep.
But this guy, he seemed not to care at all!
In an instant, they looked at his expressionless face and seemed to remember that night!
Shen Shao and Situ Lei also narrowed their eyes. They hadn't expected that Su Chen would strike with such ferocity!
This guy appeared to play by no one's rules and acted without restraint!
Not only these people were shaken, but even the elders of the Five Great Families, who were gathered together chatting, stiffened after seeing Su Chen's action!
"This kid, so vicious!"
An elder exclaimed.
"He shows no mercy in his moves, and with no emotional fluctuation, remarkable!"
Another elder also revealed a look of admiration.
"He has the makings of a hero!"
A nearby elder nodded in agreement.
"But in the end, we'll have to see what follows."
The others nodded in concurrence upon hearing this.
While they admired the young man somewhat, it didn't significantly stir their emotions.
They had seen too many revolutions of time, and witnessed countless heroes rise and fall; such a matter was far from astounding to them!
Su Chen wouldn't mind what others thought or how they judged him; he just did what he wanted and needed to do!
This so-called CEO who dared to covet Lin Ruoxue had to be prepared to suffer his wrath!
