Yi Shu’s face showed a hint of awkwardness: "Understood."
Xiong Yao was a very dedicated worker. Due to an important family ergency, he needed to return ho for a few days. Knowing how busy Chi Yu’s schedule was, he didn’t want Yi Shu to worry about the assistant duties, so he arranged for a reliable person to replace him for a few days.
It was Yi Shu’s mistake to mistakenly take Li Yan as the temporary assistant replacing Xiong Yao, letting Li Yan take advantage of this opportunity.
Additionally, Yi Shu had never t Li Yan before, so naturally, he didn’t recognize her. He was extrely busy that day and didn’t think much about it.
Bringing Li Yan into Yujing No.1, Yi Shu, with a dry mouth, laid out a lot of rules. Li Yan appeared obedient, ek, and was dressed formally, but who knew she would reveal her true self once she got inside.
First, she entered Chi Yu’s master bedroom without permission. After being pulled out by Yi Shu and scolded a few tis, she started clinging to Chi Yu.
Where was the ekness in her coquettish deanor?
She not only took off her coat to reveal her figure, trying to seduce Chi Yu, but also claid to be an artist under Weng Lan of Juhua dia, and that she had admired Chi Yu for a long ti...
Yi Shu, in his thirty-odd years, had never been so at a loss for words.
Oh my God, let a bolt of lightning strike this foolish woman dead.
Chi Yu was truly furious. Yi Shu realized it was his major oversight, and hurriedly led Li Yan away in disgrace.
Who knew they would run into President Gu halfway.
Life just kept dealing one bad hand after another.
Yi Shu thought Chi Yu already knew that last night Li Yan had intentionally left behind an intimate piece of clothing to create ambiguity, yet little did he know Chi Yu was completely unaware, purely thinking Li Yan had only entered that master bedroom.
Until the cleaning staff took out an intimate piece of clothing, thinking it belonged to the mistress of the house, and asked where it should be placed. At that mont, Chi Yu’s face was covered with frost...
"Chi Yu, where are you going?"
Seeing Chi Yu suddenly get up and leave, Yi Shu also panicked.
...
The night before
The vast and cold Gu Mansion.
Though brightly lit, the coldness and solitude could not be dispelled.
No one knew how Gu Yuan spent that night...
Early this morning, Gu Yuan dialed a number to Sheng Yi.
When Sheng Yi hurried over to the Gu Mansion upon receiving the call, Gu Yuan was standing in the front yard drinking coffee, looking at the new quarter’s financial report. Her face was calm and serene, focused intently.
Sheng Yi approached with light footsteps, feeling that the peaceful scene before her was a reflection in water, ready to be shattered by a single stone.
"Yuanyuan." Sheng Yi walked to her side.
Gu Yuan turned her head upon hearing the voice, showing a faint smile: "You’re here."
"Are you okay?" Sheng Yi was full of concern.
Even though she knew Gu Yuan was not easily defeated, the source of trouble this ti was Chi Yu. If Chi Yu were any more ruthless, it could quite literally cost Gu Yuan half her life.
"I’m fine, nothing to worry about."
Gu Yuan said this with a smile, but that smile was filled with helplessness, mingled with a lot of bitterness, leaving even her tongue with a bitter taste.
Seeing this, Sheng Yi felt bitter inside, cursing angrily: "Damn it—he really puts scumbags to sha!"
Such a scumbag should never even think of stepping back into the entertainnt industry.
But Sheng Yi knew that even after being hurt so badly, Gu Yuan wouldn’t retaliate against Chi Yu. It wasn’t just about keeping her dignity intact but also because... of Gu Yuan’s original family.
Gu Yuan’s mother was a heartless and cold-blooded woman. Even when Gu Yuan’s father committed suicide in front of her, her mother was unmoved, watching coldly.
Back then, Gu Yuan was only seven years old, and she watched her father die right before her eyes.
It was a shadow she could never erase...
Gu Yuan had sworn that she would never beco like her cold-blooded mother, so she chose to end it gracefully, not seeking revenge against Chi Yu, and from now on, each walking their own separate path.
"I’m planning to go to Sydney, and with twenty minutes left, I wanted to say goodbye to you." Gu Yuan called Sheng Yi over not only to give a few instructions but also to bid farewell.
Sheng Yi closed her eyes for a mont, and when she opened them again, her eyes were red: "... Are you not coming back once you leave?"
"Not coming back. Who’s going to run such a big Gu Group?" Gu Yuan put away the quarterly financial report and set down the coffee, "This is just a process of self-healing, it won’t take long."
