Just as Gu Hai walked out of the office building and headed towards the parking lot, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Bai Luo Yin's car.

As expected, he was unable to remain calm......

Although a touch of self-satisfaction welled up in Gu Hai's heart, the expression on his face did not reveal anything as he maintained a withdrawn facade of a President and expressionlessly walked toward Bai Luo Yin.

As a result, the next scene caused his face to become completely paralyzed.

This was happening right in front of his company, and under such a rigorous and strict system of rules and regulation, his own staff member was not trying to avoid any arousing suspicious at all as she openly flirted with a man. But this was not even the main point. The main point was, this man was Bai Luo Yin, and this staff member was the person who was rumored to be dating a few days ago.

Step by step, Gu Hai made his way towards them which caused the conversation between the two to end.

When Di Shuang turned around to look at Gu Hai, not only was she not panic-stricken, she excitedly faced him and said, "Gu Zong, this is my boyfriend, Bai Luo Yin. There's no need for me to introduce him, right? He is the person in charge of the project that our company is currently collaborating with. It shouldn't be considered breaking protocol if I date him, right?"

The entire time, Gu Hai's gaze was glued on Bai Luo Yin, and the hidden energy that lie beneath this piercing gaze was more than enough to level the entire office building to the ground.

"Is what she said true?"

"What do you think?" Bai Luo Yin's gloomy eyes shot back at Gu Hai, "Have I, Bai Luo Yin, ever said anything irresponsible?"

In the blink of an eye, Gu Hai took a step forward and plastered his entire body just centimeters away from Bai Luo Yin. That ruthless glare was like a sharp blade carving into Bai Luo Yin's face before Gu Hai rigidly extrude three words from the tight spaces between his teeth.

"You – Are – Dead!"

Unperturbed, both of Bai Luo Yin's hands shot out and pressed hard onto Gu Hai's shoulders, controlling the distance between them before he revealed a malicious smile.

"Aren't I just being considerate for your sake? As my little brother, I'm saving you the trouble of worrying about me all day long. It's all good now. I'm not a bachelor anymore so you don't need to trouble yourself with helping me learn about your company. I've discovered that your company is a truly rich and resourceful place. Aside from President and Vice President, the rest of the staffs are all rather suitable for me."

That being said, he pulled Di Shuang's hand over and dragged it in front of Gu Hai.

"From now on, she is your sister-in-law. I'll be depending on you to look after her at work."

With a bright blush charming her cheeks, Di Shuang gave Gu Hai a glance, "Gu Zong, I'm a bit embarrassed."

Gu Hai stubbornly forced their interlocked hands apart. But to say it more precisely, he sternly cleaved it apart with so much force that it caused Di Shuang to grimace with pain and provoked Bai Luo Yin's expression to immediately change.

"Gu Hai, you need to take responsibilities for your words and actions!"

With darkened face, Gu Hai spoke with a pause between each word, "I don't know what responsibilities mean, I only know what heartless means!" [1]
