"It's not that I'm generous, it's that I'm tired, Lu Jiyuan."
She had taken precautions and fought back against Wenren Yangyang.
But until now, it's nothing.
Her efforts seemed like a joke.
She seems to be wishful thinking.
"Lu Jiyuan, I'm very grateful for your defense of me tonight, but... what I want is not that... not just that."
She has become greedy.
What she wants is Lu Jiyuan's love.
Not just the respect and rights that Mrs. Lu deserves.
Sheng Wantang didn't want to admit it, but at this moment, she had to face her heart.
She doesn't like Wenren Yangyang, not because of her request for marriage, but because of her request for Lu Jiyuan.
But, does she really have the right to ask him, who was originally engaged to be engaged?
——Tired.
Lu Jiyuan only heard these two harsh words.
Is she tired of him?
"Because of who?" Lu Jiyuan gently touched Sheng Wantang's temples, but sneered, "Chen Yi'an?"
"What does it have to do with him?" Sheng Wantang didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned Chen Yi'an.
"Have you defended him?" But to Lu Jiyuan's ears, these words sounded like he was defending Chen Yi'an.
Youthful spirit, admiration for many years, divided from abroad to China, and they are peers...
He is indeed more interesting than an 'old' man like him.
"Why did I defend him? It was obviously you who mentioned him first!" Sheng Wantang was furious, "When it comes to defending, isn't it you who defended Wen..."
She didn't want to mention Wenren Yangyang.
As soon as she said it, she seemed like a jealous woman.
"Forget it, there's nothing to argue about!"
Sheng Wantang turned her face away and looked out the window.
She was afraid that she would lose control if she continued to confront him.
Sheng Wantang had to admit that Lu Jiyuan's handling of the scandal and engagement for Wenren Yangyang had affected her.
The back of the woman's head revealed stubbornness and indifference, and Lu Jiyuan was so angry that he puffed out his sleeves.
The sound of the bedroom door opening was particularly clear to Sheng Wantang's ears, like a knock on her heart.
Sheng Wantang subconsciously turned around to look.
The man who had left suddenly came back quickly.
Before Sheng Wantang had time to react, the man had already stopped in front of her and pushed forward so hard that she had to lean back after she had just sat up, and she managed to stabilize herself with one hand behind her back.
The man's face was as dark as water, with hidden anger.
He pinched Sheng Wantang's chin, forcefully as if he was forcing her, but also with a hint of coaxing.
"Sheng Wantang, be good, if you say a few nice words, tonight's matter will be settled by me."
He doesn't care if he finds other women!
Lu Jiyuan never thought that he would do such a stupid thing that he would be so angry that he left the room and came back within half a minute.
It’s crazy!
"Lu Jiyuan, this is not the way to solve the problem." Sheng Wantang felt sad.
Picking it up again and again and putting it down gently never solves the problem fundamentally, but only allows conflicts to accumulate.
Just like they are now.
Old illnesses accumulate and are about to break out.
I don’t even know how to sort out this nonsense.
The man laughed softly, as if mocking.
Lu Jiyuan let go of Sheng Wantang and left again with windy footsteps.
Sheng Wantang saw that his shirt, which was half wet in the bathroom, was stuck to his body, showing the outline of his muscles.
After Sheng Wantang sat on the bed for a few seconds, she stood up and walked to the bed.
She hid behind the curtains and hesitated whether to stand on the balcony.
Standing there, he would definitely be able to see her.
Just then, the cell phone rang.
It was a news push sent by Ruan Jishi: [Wenren Yangyang parachuted into the top fashion company Mingshan Mandrill executive! Congratulations! ]
Comes with an emoticon of watching a good show.
Sheng Wantang took a step back suddenly, away from the balcony.
The guess she was worried about actually happened.
Although she rejected Mingshan Mandrill, now that she saw Wenren Yangyang becoming a senior executive of Mingshan Mandrill, she still felt heartbroken. It was obviously expected, but she was still very disappointed.
The sour feeling in her eyes made Sheng Wantang blink, bend her legs, and bury her face in her arms.
She opened the mailbox on her mobile phone and found an email from her tutor two days ago - the Art School of Teito University had extended an invitation to her, hoping that she could return to school as an off-campus tutor to give lectures to the junior students for two weeks.
It is very common in the society to invite seniors in professional fields to take professional courses in schools.
Sheng Wantang called her tutor:
"Teacher Zheng, I will be free tomorrow and can come to school for classes, but I have a request - can the school help me arrange on-campus accommodation?"
-
Half past ten in the evening.
The top management of gt Group received notices from Yi Teshu one after another - the president asked them to return to the company immediately for a meeting!
Everyone thought that something important had happened to the company that was related to their livelihood, but when they arrived at the office, Mr. Lu just asked them to report on the status of each department.
After the report was over, at two o'clock in the morning, we started to solve the problems of various departments.
Executives:???
The aroma of coffee in the conference room never stopped, and the efficient late night and overtime work allowed everyone to solve the work problems that had been backlogged for half a month in various departments of the company in one night, and by the way, make plans for each department for the next half month.
The senior executives' eyelids were so sleepy that even Yi Jiu was yawning silently.
Only Lu Jiyuan in the main seat was expressionless and emotionless, like a cold working machine.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the CEO is not in a good mood!
"Assistant Yi, is the president's... uncle here?" A senior executive couldn't help but quietly asked Yi Jiu.
Yi Jiu sighed tiredly: "Mr. Lu said tonight's salary will be tripled."
I guess I had another quarrel with the boss lady!
The CEO and the CEO's wife are not living in harmony, and it is they, the workers, who are to blame!
Executive: "..." looked at his watch.
Yes, it's eight o'clock.
It's almost time to go to work again.
Three times the salary is better than just sleeping!
-
As soon as it dawned, Sheng Wantang packed up a few necessities and went to school.
When I got downstairs, I thought of bringing the clothes I bought for Mrs. Sheng.
The alumni hotel arranged by Royal Capital University for Sheng Wan Tang was right next to the student dormitory. Seeing these youthful faces, Sheng Wan Tang felt a little better.
However, this good mood did not last long.
Sheng Wantang received a call from Lin Zhi.
"Sheng Wantang, get back here immediately!" Lin Zhi scolded angrily, "The old lady is sitting on the sofa waiting for you!"
Some things cannot be avoided.
Sheng Mengyue is best at complaining.
It only takes ten minutes to drive from Imperial University to Shengjia.
The whole Sheng family was sitting neatly on the sofa, and even Sheng Kun didn't go to the company.
Sheng Mengyue was crying aggrievedly in Lin Zhi's arms. When she saw Sheng Wantang coming, she cried even louder.
"Mom, she insulted me so much that I didn't want to live anymore! She forced me to kneel down in public, how could I have the face to see others?"
Lin Zhi glared at Sheng Wantang and said to Mrs. Sheng, "Look at the good granddaughter you taught!"
Sheng Wantang seemed not to have heard what Sheng Mengyue and Lin Zhi said, and took out the leather coat from the shopping bag: "Grandma, I bought you a dress, do you like it?"
"Get away!"
Mrs. Sheng pushed Sheng Wantang's hand away with a straight face.
Sheng Wantang was unprepared, and the leather coat slipped from her fingertips and fell to the ground.
The atmosphere solidified.
Sheng Mengyue smiled and watched the show proudly.
Sheng Wantang was not angry and just said: "Grandma..."
"Don't call me grandma!"
Mrs. Sheng suddenly raised her voice and stared at Sheng Wantang with her cloudy eyes, which cut through the previous kindness with the sharpness of her age.
