Chapter 544: Chapter 544: Scrambling

The work in Yunzhou was proceeding relatively smoothly under Xu Ke’s iron-fisted suppression. Several times during this period, Chairman Sun tried to cause trouble, but Xu Ke managed to fend it off without any obvious traces.

Ariel had been living a blissful life in Yunzhou these days, seeing Xu Ke every day after work and having him accompany her doing things she loved, leading an almost fairy-tale-like existence.

That day, after finishing work, Xu Ke found Ariel waiting at the bottom of the company building again.

"Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you not to come to pick me up? What if you get sunburned in this big sun?" Xu Ke looked up at the reasonably bright sun and said.

Although it was afternoon already, the sun wasn’t as dazzling as it was at noon, but it still packed quite some heat.

Xu Ke looked at Ariel’s nose, still beaded with sweat, with a hint of distress in his eyes.

Ariel, carefree and happy, wrapped her arms around Xu Ke’s waist and coquettishly said, "No, no, I just want to come to pick you up. Picking you up from work makes me very happy, and I don’t think this bit of sun is anything to worry about."

Ariel revealed her snow-white teeth with a mischievous smile and looked at Xu Ke, her eyes sparkling with an indescribable playfulness.

Xu Ke was utterly defeated by Ariel’s demeanor, showing indulgent helplessness in his eyes while his heart felt as if it had been fed honey, sweet and luscious.

Yet, still putting on a stern face, he pretended to be fierce, saying to Ariel, "If you don’t care for yourself, I care for you. If you want to see me next time, remember to bring an umbrella to shade yourself. If you don’t listen to me, see how I’ll punish you when we get back."
