Congratulations, You Hit the Jackpot! 1

Leng Yejin stood at the stairway entrance and drank the coffee in a relaxed manner. “You want to work for the president’s office?”

“Um, I’m about to graduate. This is a good opportunity. I want to work hard for it.”

Leng Yejin straightened up. His aura was domineering. “Um,” he said and continued coldly, “I’m not going to pull some strings for you.”

Tong Lu’s cheeks flushed and became so red that blood was threatening to seep out of her skin. “I don’t want you to pull some strings for me. I just want to know the standard of the ideal candidate as a reference.”

Leng Yejin raised his eyebrow and studied her with his inscrutable gaze. “You are quite confident with yourself.”

“I’m not bad at all!” Tong Lu said. She was frustrated and embarrassed. “I did quite well with all the courses I took in college. Although I don’t have an excellent memory like you, I always woke up at five thirty to study. I studied hard to make up for my lack of natural talent!”

‘Five thirty? How dare she mention that!’

“Work hard, then. Do your best.”

Leng Yejin sneaked a glance at her. His tone of voice sounded displeased. He took another sip of the coffee and handed the cup to her before turning around and walking away.

Tong Lu thought that he was being rather cold-hearted. He did not even bother to help her gather some information. She chased after him. “By the way, brother-in-law, have you noticed that the scratch on my face has already healed? I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but the wounds on my body have healed particularly quickly.”

“Even though Ji Yiming is always spewing nonsense, his medical skills are incomparable. Did you apply the ointment he gave you last night?”

“I did. Still, it healed way too soon. Is there a steroid hormone in the ointment?”

Leng Yejin did not stop walking. “Don’t ever say that in front of Ji Yiming. He’d disfigure you without a beat.”

Tong Lu immediately covered her mouth. ‘Is it really because how super effective the ointment is?’ She had a feeling that it was because of something else, and that she did not know what it could be because she had not found the clues.

While she was deep in thought, Leng Yejin had already strode right into the meeting hall. There was an idea on his mind, that he must kill her to protect his secret!

Now the only question was — should he do it via erotic asphyxiation or simply strangle her?

Tong Lu shuddered and felt alarmed for no reason. She felt as if she just narrowly escaped death. She looked around and made sure that she was not in danger. Taking a deep breath, she subconsciously took a sip of the coffee to calm her nerves.

She felt her throat tighten and nearly spat out the coffee.

Her brother-in-law had drunk from this cup. His lips had touched the rim earlier on. As it seemed… she had just taken advantage of her brother-in-law again.

She was incredibly nervous and quickly ran away. She wanted to flush the remaining coffee down the toilet, but she heard a thud from the men’s bathroom. It was loud. ‘What’s going on?’

But the sound came from the men’s bathroom. It was inappropriate for her to walk in.

Tong Lu stood at the entrance of the men’s bathroom. “Pardon me, is anyone in there? I heard a noise. What’s happening inside? I’m a female volunteer…”

“Come… come in…” The voice sounded as if the person was in great pain.

Tong Lu hesitated for a moment before entering the men’s bathroom and suddenly saw a man lying on the floor. ‘Oh my god, it’s the Mr. Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.’ Tong Lu ran over hurriedly. “Mr. Prime Minister, are you alright?”

The British prime minister was suffering from angina. Unfortunately, Tong Lu did not have Instant Cardio Reliever Pills on her. She quickly pressed on the inside of his wrist with her fingers and started performing emergency treatment.

A few minutes later, Leng Yejin received the news. A female volunteer was found assaulting the British prime minister in the men’s bathroom. The prime minister’s bodyguard had already subdued her. This was a delicate matter. If something bad happened to Mr. Prime Minister, this fiasco might escalate into a war between two nations. Mr. President had already left the meeting venue. Leng Yejin furrowed his brows.

“How’s the British prime minister?”

“He became unconscious. We have already sent him to the hospital. The prime minister’s bodyguard found him lying on the floor in the men’s bathroom while one of our female volunteers was unbuttoning his collar… She is not just a random volunteer. It was Miss Tong.”
