Chapter 53: How to Defeat the Overbearing CEO

Lu Ye had returned.

No one knew exactly when he came back.

From the moment she woke up that morning, he was blatantly present before her eyes.

Yet he managed to perfectly avoid the live stream camera.

For example, right now, he was sitting directly across from her, but the camera captured nothing of him.

Though his presence there was certainly pleasing to the eye—charming, debonair, his brows and eyes painted in poetic elegance...

Now and then, he would lift his gaze to look at her, lingering for quite some time each glance.

...

Yet Jiang Sui found it all rather strange.

Though she couldn’t quite say where the strangeness lay.

“Alright, then I’ll recite it now. Does that mean I don’t have to recite it again tonight?” Lu Xuanxuan asked.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye lifted his head slightly, his brows gently knit.

Jiang Sui was just about to say, no, no, hold on—we’re live.

But Lu Xuanxuan had already begun her recitation...

“Woman, you’ve succeeded in catching my attention.”

“Woman, don’t challenge me.”

“Woman, you can’t escape.”

“Woman, don’t play with fire.”

“Woman, you brought this upon yourself.”

“Woman, you are the first who dared speak to me this way.”

“Damn it, I think I’m falling for you.”

“I want the whole world to know this fish pond has been contracted by you.”

...

Lu Ye: “…”

He had long since said these were nothing but ridiculous nonsense.

Jiang Sui: “…” It seemed she was already too late to cover Xuanxuan’s mouth.

Lu Xuanxuan finished in one breath, then looked at Jiang Sui with teary eyes and a pout. “Mommy Jiang Sui, I finished reciting.”

Jiang Sui cleared her throat softly. “Good, continue tomorrow.”

Lu Xuanxuan protested, cheeks puffed in frustration. “Mommy Jiang Sui! But I think these lines are so silly!”

Jiang Sui raised an eyebrow. “Silly or not, you have to recite them. Once you’re used to them, if anyone ever says these things to you, you’ll be accustomed.”

Lu Xuanxuan gritted her teeth. “Hmph! Whoever says these things to me must be a colossal fool!”

Lu Xuanxuan had already decided: if anyone ever uttered such lines in front of her, she’d slap them so hard they wouldn’t recognize their own mother!

Jiang Sui was quite satisfied with Lu Xuanxuan’s reaction.

Yes, this was exactly the outcome she wanted.

The way to defeat the domineering CEO was to be even more domineering.

As long as Xuanxuan became familiar with this style of speech—

Either she would detest anyone who spoke to her in such a manner,

Or she would become the one who uttered these catchphrases herself.

And whichever way it went, it would ensure she avoided the fate of being entangled and tormented by second-generation domineering CEOs in both body and soul.

From the moment Lu Xuanxuan started reciting the very first line, the live stream’s chat exploded.

[??????????]

[What is this? What even is this??]

[Why do these lines sound more and more familiar the longer I hear them?]

[Hahahaha, I’m dying, these are CEO catchphrases! Of course you recognize them! Hahaha!]

[Oh my god, I’m laughing so hard I need an oxygen tank!]

[I was honestly expecting Xuanxuan to recite some ancient poetry, but instead???]

[Hahahahahaha, absolutely unexpected]

[Why is this so awkward ahhh, usually I don’t notice, but now my toes are curling so hard they’ve carved out an entire three-bedroom apartment]

[Is this to get Xuanxuan to recite CEO catchphrases from a young age so she won’t get tricked by men later? Ahhh, what a goddess of a mother! By the way, to the person above, how are your toes? I could use a basement in my house]

And so, the topic of Jiang Sui making Xuanxuan recite CEO catchphrases once again trended online.

It didn’t just spark a wave of laughter—it also prompted heated discussions about whether girls should be taught about relationships from an early age.

When Bai Xixue saw the trending topic and the CEO catchphrases recited by Lu Xuanxuan, her brows suddenly furrowed.

“These lines... why do they sound so familiar…”
