As the figure left the office, he suddenly stood up and strode out with long steps.
The secretary, noticing his darkened expression as he ca out, had no idea what had happened.
It wasn’t until Gu Annan’s steps ca to a halt that he saw Lu Wanwan throwing a card into the trash can as she left through the glass doors of the office.
In that instant, the secretary swore that in her five years of working there, she had never seen Gu’s face look so terrible.
After a long, suppressed silence, the secretary heard Gu Annan’s restrained voice, "Change my business trip schedule from the day after tomorrow to tonight, and then go directly to Xigang from there."
He had originally planned to go to Xigang a day later, to allow her to relax for a day without any pressure with the two kids, and he had other business matters as well.
Since it was like this...
Then don’t bla him for not leaving any ti, he would go that very night!

After throwing away the card, Lu Wanwan felt a peculiar sense of relief.
Even though it was just a card, it was as if she had thrown Gu Annan out with it.
After discarding it, she even elegantly dusted off her hands, a gesture of contempt and disdain.
Stepping out from Gu Corporation, Lu Wanwan understood the situation at a glance when she saw Shuman waiting for her not far from the main entrance.
Lu Wanwan glanced at her, intending to ignore her.
Last ti, angered by Gu Annan, she had deliberately spoken so untrue words, maliciously hoping to cause misunderstandings between the two of them.
Now, well, it seed too childish.
If they were so inseparable, why shouldn’t she generously wish them well?
"Miss Lu," Shuman hurried forward to catch up.
Lu Wanwan detested her own sharp eyes, which caught sight of the red marks on Shuman’s neck at a glance.
"Nice to see you, Miss Shu, and farewell," she replied perfunctorily with a smile, quickening her pace, preparing to hail a taxi at the intersection.
"Miss Lu, please wait for a mont," Shuman pleaded, following behind in high heels, which clearly troubled her.
She even stumbled slightly.
The sidewalk was crowded, and soon, Lu Wanwan saw Shuman persisting in following her, limping onto the main road.
If an accident happened, she, as the ex-wife present at the scene, would find it hard to explain.
"Miss Shu, as I recall, we aren’t close, and there really isn’t much to talk about," Lu Wanwan said patiently, stopping by the side of the road and glancing at Shuman’s slightly disheveled appearance, "Why are you following with a sprained foot? Go have your driver take you back."
"Miss Lu, may I just say a few words?" Shuman’s voice even sounded pleading.
She was completely different from the high-society lady who had condescended to approach her, a lesser reporter, with the intention of spending money to help Gu Annan screen news.
"Go ahead," she thought with a cold huff, cursing the trouble Gu Annan caused.
"I want to apologize first for last ti; I didn’t know you were his ex-wife..."
"Skip the apologies; whether you knew who I was or not, there’s no need for you to apologize to . Get to the point," Lu Wanwan said, glancing at the ti, her mind preoccupied with clocking back into MG and then rushing ho to cook dinner for Little Momo and Little Youyou.
"Miss Lu, I didn’t an to interfere with you two getting close recently... I just..." Shuman struggled for a bit, then made up her mind and said, "Actually, I’m willing to step aside if Gu Annan likes you. You don’t need to worry about as an obstacle; I won’t stand in your way."
Lu Wanwan looked scornfully at the marks on Shuman’s neck, " and him getting close recently? Miss Shu, your concerns are unnecessary. You should take this up with Gu Annan and tell him not to show up in front of when it’s not needed. I don’t have the slightest other feeling for him; I only wish he would stay far away from ."
