Chapter 70 - 70 70 Extortion

70: Chapter 70 Extortion 70: Chapter 70 Extortion “Huh?

Who are you?

Why are you here?” Sun Dongming saw Song Xiaodong and immediately furrowed his brows, scanning the room with an unfriendly tone.

At that moment, Song Xiaodong was truly speechless.

Li Sijie was taking things too far, hiding and leaving him out here in the open.

It was as if she was forcing him to cover for her, because if Sun Dongming saw her under the table, an issue that didn’t exist would suddenly arise.

“Hello, you must be Director Sun, I am Song Xiaodong, just recruited by President Li to be the martial arts coach here.”

Sun Dongming sized up Song Xiaodong again and said, “Oh, a coach, huh?

What are you doing here?

Where’s President Li?”

“President Li just stepped out for a moment, should be on another floor by now.

He asked me to get the ad copy ready quickly, the hiring is about to begin,” Song Xiaodong replied as he pulled a chair over to sit down.

Song Xiaodong sat down, with his chest still a First Stage distance away from the table, and didn’t stretch his legs in too much.

But just as he sat down properly, he felt his leg being grabbed by Li Sijie’s hand, pulling forcefully inwards.

With the chair on wheels, such a pull made Song Xiaodong’s body involuntarily slide forward, chest pressed against the table edge.

Li Sijie was clearly very afraid of being discovered by Sun Dongming, so not only did she pull Song Xiaodong’s shins in, but she also tightened her arms and actually clutched Song Xiaodong’s legs tightly against her chest.

Feeling the softness pressing against his shins, Song Xiaodong couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly, although such contact was not normally intense, it was stimulating nonetheless.

The unique sensation in his heart was indescribably delightful for Song Xiaodong.

“Why are you sitting here?

Go work on it over there.” Sun Dongming frowned and glared.

Song Xiaodong hadn’t spoken yet, but he immediately felt Li Sijie’s grip on his legs tighten, clearly not letting him leave.

This left Song Xiaodong with a mix of laughter and tears.

Was there really a need for Li Sijie to act like this?

However, given the circumstances, combined with the delightful feeling on his legs, he had no choice but to say, “Oh, just a moment, I’ll be done very soon.”

Sun Dongming immediately said uncompromisingly, “Is this a place for you to sit?

Move aside at once.

I’ve never seen anyone so clueless as you.

Sitting even in the boss’s chair, don’t you know what you’re supposed to be doing?”

Song Xiaodong looked at Sun Dongming, his face growing stern, and replied, “President Li asked me to sit here and work on this.”

Sun Dongming impatiently responded, “Get it done later, go find your President Li for me right now.”

Song Xiaodong shook his head, “President Li didn’t give me such instructions.

He just asked me to get this thing done as quickly as possible.”

Sun Dongming grew even more annoyed.

“Are you out of your mind?

I am your President Li’s husband.

If I tell you to find her, you find her.

If she blames you later, I’ll back you up.”

“Even if you are President Li’s husband, that has nothing to do with me.

I’m just here to work at this company, and President Li is my boss.

As for President Li’s relatives, they have nothing to do with me whatsoever.”

Sun Dongming had truly never met someone so clueless.

In this club, who didn’t respectfully address him as Director Sun?

Even if they didn’t take him seriously behind his back, they wouldn’t dare show it to his face, would they?

But this guy, right in front of him, was contradicting him like this, and it really ticked him off.

He stood up with a slap on the table and walked directly towards Song Xiaodong’s side, fuming, “Are you going to move or not, kid?”

Hearing Sun Dongming’s footsteps, Li Sijie’s soul was nearly scared away, her hands clutching Song Xiaodong’s legs for dear life, terrified that he would stand up.

She had completely lost her usual confidence and authority as a President, and become a timid little woman, frightened over small matters.

Song Xiaodong looked at the fuming Sun Dongming, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouth, and said, “Director Sun, congratulations, you’re going to be a daddy.”

“What?” Sun Dongming’s footsteps halted abruptly.

Song Xiaodong’s smile grew even brighter as he said, “I’m saying, Director Sun is going to be a dad, so why is he still so hot-tempered?”

“What…

be a dad?

What nonsense are you talking about?

President Li isn’t pregnant yet.” Sun Dongming’s heart raced as Song Xiaodong spoke, the words clearly making him nervous.

“Director Sun, let’s not beat around the bush.

I’ve seen you with a woman at the hospital for a checkup, you know.

She had long hair, was wearing a light yellow top, beige trousers, and a pair of light blue flat sandals.”

Sun Dongming’s face turned deathly pale, his bravado vanishing without a trace.

He glanced back, then forced a smile and said, “Brother, you can’t just say things like that.”

Song Xiaodong grinned and said, “I’m tight-lipped, you know.

I haven’t told President Li about this.”

Though he was smiling on the outside, he was secretly complaining inside, as Li Sijie’s fingers were pinching the back of his calf hard, and it was quite unbearable.

Sun Dongming’s eyes darted around as he said, “Alright, alright, I know you’re a sensible man, thank you.

This…

as long as you keep this secret for me, I definitely won’t let you down.”

Song Xiaodong asked with a beaming smile, “Well then…

what kind of benefits will you give me, Director Sun?”

“This…

I’ll give you ten thousand yuan.”

“Ten thousand yuan…

Is this news really worth only ten thousand yuan?

That day, I heard you plan to swindle all of President Li’s money and then run off with that woman, living the high life.

If the club goes under because you’ve taken all the money, I’ll lose my job.

Just ten thousand for me?

Wouldn’t that be a terrible loss?”

“This…

this…” Sun Dongming’s face became even uglier.

Song Xiaodong flashed a grin and said, “When I came over yesterday, I just happened to hear President Li talking about you using the club as collateral for a loan, apparently for ten million.

You’re about to become a multimillionaire, and you’re only giving me ten thousand?

Isn’t that a bit stingy?”

Sun Dongming’s face grew even more unsightly, his eyes fixed on Song Xiaodong, he said, “So what do you want?”

Composed, Song Xiaodong replied, “You should be very clear, if I tell President Li about this, you won’t get a single cent, and in the end, it’ll be nothing but trouble.”

Grinding his teeth, Sun Dongming said, “How much do you want then?”

“Three million!

Not a penny less.”

“Damn it!

Why don’t you just rob me?”

“That’s up to you to consider.

If you don’t want to give, no objections from me, but then you won’t even have seven million.”

“You…

you…” Sun Dongming pointed at Song Xiaodong, his face turning green with rage, after a long pause he said, “Fine!

I agree, but if you dare leak this, I swear I’ll kill you!”

“Deal!” Song Xiaodong waved his hand and said, “You go on ahead, I need to finish up early and go home to wait for my money.”
