Lu Jingchen’s face beca even gloomier, his thin lips pressed tightly, especially the pen in his hand, which seed slightly deford. Faintly visible on the back of his tightly clenched fist, veins were bulging. In those deep eyes, it seed as if emotions were being forcefully suppressed, unable to be released.
Upon seeing his boss like this, Assistant Xue was instantly startled, feeling an urge to imdiately flee the office.
He wondered what if the boss couldn’t control his anger and killed him to silence him?
After a long while, Lu Jingchen seed to have finally suppressed the rage in his heart. He stood up, picked up the suit jacket on the desk, and said with barely any emotional fluctuation in his voice, "Cancel all arrangents for today, call the driver, go to the Mu Mansion."
Assistant Xue was initially startled but soon understood his boss’ aning and nodded, "Okay."
However, just as they stepped out of the office, they encountered Murong Rui, who had just co from the elevator and was walking towards them. Upon seeing Lu Jingchen, her eyes lit up. She quickly walked up to him in her high heels, reached out both hands to clasp his arm, and with a wide smile said, "Jingchen brother, where are you going? I haven’t had lunch yet, can you accompany ?"
Seeing Murong Rui, Lu Jingchen involuntarily furrowed his eyebrows. The incidents at the wedding were still vivid in his mind, and he couldn’t help but bla Murong Rui for exposing those things at the wedding. After all, if it hadn’t been for Murong Rui revealing those issues, he and Song Qiao wouldn’t have reached this point.
After all, he didn’t even know when it started, but he had already fallen in love with Song Qiao. Especially today at the villa, when Song Qiao straightforwardly asked for a divorce, he felt as if his heart was viciously cut out.
With no trace of a smile on his face, maintaining a seemingly indifferent deanor throughout, he withdrew his arm from the girl’s grasp. The man’s thin lips parted slightly as he softly said, "I have other matters to attend to. If you want to have a al, Assistant Xue can accompany you."
Saying this, he stepped forward with his suit-clad legs and headed towards the CEO’s exclusive elevator, exuding an aura of ’keep away’.
Assistant Xue froze, inwardly crying out, ’President, spare , please. I don’t want to have a al with Miss Murong. I’d rather you assign more work, even if it ans working overti.’
Murong Rui didn’t even glance at Assistant Xue; instead, she stared at Lu Jingchen’s departing figure, dazed for a mont. Then, reacting quickly, she followed him in her high heels. Just as the elevator arrived, she entered with Lu Jingchen and urgently spoke, "Jingchen brother, I’ve been back for over a week now, and you haven’t had a al with . Did I do sothing that upset you?"
Lu Jingchen’s expression remained unchanged, but his look towards Murong Rui turned colder, his voice now tinged with a chill, "Shouldn’t you still be finishing your studies? Returning for so long could delay your academics. Tomorrow, I’ll have Assistant Xue book a flight back to England for you?"
Murong Rui’s face turned pale, staring blankly at the man in front of her. She initially wanted to reach out again to hold onto his arm, but because of his words, her hand froze mid-air, maintaining that position. After a long while, she seed on the verge of crying, her voice soaked in endless grievances, "Jingchen brother, are you so unwilling to see ? It’s been over three years since I last saw you. Going to England, I’ve always been there all alone. Don’t you know how lonely I am there?"
Seemingly recalling sothing particularly heartbreaking, her tears suddenly began to fall from her eyes. She really started crying, her voice now filled with sobs, "Both my parents already don’t want anymore. Jingchen brother, are you also planning to abandon ? If that’s really the case, it’d be better to let just die. If I die, maybe I can be with my parents again, otherwise what’s the point of living alone in this world?"
