Tang Yung chuckled, "You're such a bad person."
......
After returning from overseas, Song Ming did not imdiately head to the City Committee; instead, he returned to his villa in the East River District.
Lin Chuan drove Tang Yung to the City Committee.
When the security guards at the entrance saw Lin Chuan's jeep approaching, they initially intended to give Lin Chuan a hard ti. However, once they saw that Tang Yung was also in the car, they dared not trouble Lin Chuan and hurriedly opened the gate to let them through.
Upon entering the City Committee, Tang Yung imdiately got busy.
Xiao Xue, seeing Tang Yung again, exclaid, "Secretary Tang, you're back?"
"How do you feel, happy?" Tang Yung seed to be in a good mood.
"Yes, happy!" Xiao Xue nodded excitedly.
"By the way, has anything happened recently?" After sitting down, Tang Yung started sorting through the paperwork on her desk. While reviewing files, she inquired, "Everything has been alright during the ti I was away, right?"
"It's been alright... just..." Xiao Xue stamred.
This response made Tang Yung a bit puzzled, causing her to look up at Xiao Xue and say, "If there's sothing, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."
"Yes!" Xiao Xue nodded.
She told Tang Yung about the incidents that occurred in Linjiang after she had left, causing Tang Yung to frown deeply.
Outside the room, a rapid knocking on the door was heard.
"Go open the door." Tang Yung glanced at Xiao Xue.
"Yes!" Xiao Xue nodded.
Once the door was opened, a man in a white suit holding a large bunch of blue roses squeezed in.
"Mr. Bai?" Xiao Xue was taken aback.
"Sorry." Bai Yifan smiled, "I bumped into you. I heard Xiao Yu ca back, so I was a bit excited and rushed over here. I hope you don't mind."
"Ah, no... It's fine!" Xiao Xue quickly shook her head, "Please have a seat, Mr. Bai, I'll pour you so tea."
"Sure." Bai Yifan nodded.
Despite Xiao Xue's enthusiasm, Tang Yung felt rather gloomy. The last person she wanted to see upon returning to the country was Bai Yifan. Bai Yifan had deceived her ti and ti again. She had always treated him as her best friend, yet he treated her like a fool. Moreover, during a confrontation with Lin Chuan, she had almost accepted Bai Yifan's courtship.
At this mont, Tang Yung felt extrely fortunate. She was glad that she hadn't accepted Bai Yifan's advances; otherwise, she would have regretted it her whole life.
"You're here?" Tang Yung's gaze towards Bai Yifan was neither warm nor cold.
"Yes." Bai Yifan nodded, his tone warm as he said, "Xiao Yu, I've been so worried about you these past few days, I almost felt sick. Do you know how much I've missed you? I wished I could fly to the United States to look for you, only to be upset that you wouldn't let accompany you."
"Is that so?" Tang Yung gave Bai Yifan a disdainful glance, her tone icy as she said, "Bai Yifan, your ability to deceive has improved quite a bit."
"Xiao Yu, what... what do you an by that?" Bai Yifan looked shocked.
"Don't you understand?" Tang Yung stared at Bai Yifan and said, "What I an is simple. You are a liar."
"Uh..." Bai Yifan racked his brain, trying to figure out what went wrong and where the mistake happened.
Fortunately, he was clever. He rembered the incident with Lin Chuan. Bai Yifan quickly admitted his fault, "Xiao Yu, you must forgive for that matter. I indeed did not help with Lin Chuan's issue. Back then you were pressing hard for answers, so... I implicitly agreed, but never expressly admitted it. I thought since Lin Chuan had been rescued, why should it matter who exactly rescued him? As long as Lin Chuan was released, you would be happy. So, I didn't dare say it wasn't who helped through my connections."
Bai Yifan's cleverness indeed made Tang Yung's resentnt towards him subside to the minimum.
From his words, it seed that every phrase was considering Tang Yung's feelings, evidently showing no selfish motives.
