I don't know if it was ten seconds, half a minute or longer, but Tong Jiangxin seemed to be dazzled in an instant. She said, "I'll go up and take a look."
Zhang Tong watched Tong Jiangxin turn around and walk towards the elevator entrance. She paused and then followed.
The two returned to the negotiation department. At this time, there was no one in the room. Everyone was hurriedly using the only hour to get lunch.
Tong Jiangxin sat in her seat, stretched out her hand to pull out the computer keyboard, and quickly typed the words "LU Chengxi" on the keyboard with her slender fingers.
The news banner filled the screen, with large red characters listed one by one.
I randomly clicked on one and what I saw was a somewhat blurry picture. The picture showed a man and a woman. They had just gotten out of the car. The man was holding a lot of white shopping bags in his hands. Although it was a side view,
Although the face is still visible, it is Lu Chengxi’s appearance, while the woman’s back is turned to the camera, so her appearance cannot be clearly seen.
The sign on the back of the car was deliberately mosaic, but the title of the report clearly read: President Lu's suspected breakup with superstar Han Bing, Macau held hands with a new love, and the two went to the supermarket intimately and returned to their love nest.
It was just a blurry picture. Within a few hours, it made headlines in major newspapers and magazines. There were hundreds of thousands of replies below, and someone even searched for the name of the community.
Tong Jiangxin's heart was about to sink to the bottom. She looked at the time and saw that the photo was posted this morning. At that time, it was still more than an hour before she and Lu Chengxi left home. She was really afraid of a coincidence.
Yes, someone took a frontal photo of them together.
Quickly scrolling through the comments below, everyone is guessing who the new rumored heroine is. Some people say it's Han Bing, but some Han Bing fans firmly say it's not because Han Bing has been filming abroad recently.
Among the hundreds of thousands of messages, Tong Jiangxin got a glimpse for the first time. When she saw her name appearing among them, she trembled all over.
Someone in the message mentioned whether it could be Tong Jiangxin, the daughter of the Tong family. After all, Lu Chengxi had also been involved in scandals with her.
Zhang Tong saw Tong Jiangxin's face pale, and she whispered, "Sister Jiang Xin, don't read what these people write randomly on the Internet. What do they know? It's just speculation!"
Tong Jiangxin used all her self-control to hold on to her trembling legs. She didn't want to look into Zhang Tong's eyes because she was afraid that the doubt in her eyes would cause her to collapse.
Not knowing how she got such a long mouth, Tong Jiangxin said, "No wonder everyone looked at me like that just now. That's what happened."
Zhang Tong said out loud, "These people are all like this, sister Jiang Xin, don't take it to heart."
Tong Jiangxin looked at Zhang Tong's expression of eagerness to comfort herself. In fact, she wanted to ask, do you believe that person is not me?
But when the words came to her lips, Tong Jiangxin finally didn't want to say them anymore. What did it matter whether she believed it or not? The key person was her.
Secretly adjusting her mood, Tong Jiangxin forced out a faint smile and said, "Okay, as long as I know what's going on, let's go down and eat."
Zhang Tong looked at Tong Jiangxin's face, nodded and said, "Yeah, okay."
Avoiding the restaurants with good reputations that Evergrande people often go to, Tong Jiangxin took Zhang Tong to a nearby Western restaurant. They had eaten at this restaurant before, and except for being a little expensive, everything else was good.
Tong Jiangxin and Zhang Tong found a seat to the side and sat down. After ordering their food, Zhang Tong deliberately changed the subject and said, "Sister Jiang Xin, you were not here a few days ago about the cooperation case with Asia Pacific. Minister Liu took a look at it and also
I have modified a few things and said that I will wait until you come back to read it before finalizing it."
Tong Jiangxin nodded, and then said, "Well, I know, Minister Liu told me today."
Zhang Tong took advantage of the situation and said, "Hey, Sister Jiang Xin, what did you tell her? She didn't make things difficult for you?"
Tong Jiangxin asked, "Why did you expect that she would make things difficult for me?"
Zhang Tong curled his lips and looked like it was natural.
Tong Jiangxin took a breath and then said, "I told her that I will only stay at Evergrande for half a year at most."
Zhang Tong was particularly surprised and said subconsciously, "What?!"
Tong Jiangxin knew that she would have to tell Zhang Tong about this matter sooner or later. It would be the same if she said it earlier. She simply thought that Zhang Tong was a good person and did not treat her as an outsider, so she said, "I have wanted to find a time to tell you. Today
It’s okay to say it.”
Zhang Tong said anxiously, "Sister Jiang Xin, why are you leaving? Is it because those people said something behind your back? You really shouldn't listen to them. People in the company like to gossip, and they can be found everywhere."
Tong Jiangxin shook his head and explained, "It is my own decision to not care about other people's affairs."
Zhang Tong frowned and said, "Sister Jiang Xin, can you not leave? I can't live without you now, what will I do after you leave?"
Tong Jiangxin smiled and replied, "Who can stay with someone for a lifetime? Besides, I won't leave right away. I can stay for half a year anyway. If you work hard in these six months, it will be enough to gain a foothold in Evergrande. Even if I'm not with you then,
You can also take the lead yourself."
Zhang Tong's face completely darkened, looking listless and hopeless.
Tong Jiangxin's mood was mixed with sadness and joy. In fact, Zhang Tong was right. People in the company gossiped openly and secretly. This would happen everywhere, but she really couldn't stay here anymore, especially after something like today, she
I no longer have any hope.
Just as she was thinking about it, her cell phone vibrated in her bag. Tong Jiangxin took it out and looked at it. Her face changed slightly when she saw the familiar phone number but without a name.
Standing up with the phone in hand, Tong Jiangxin said to Zhang Tong, "I'm going to answer the phone."
Zhang Tong was lost in his thoughts about the future and didn't pay attention. He just nodded casually.
Tong Jiangxin took her cell phone out of the restaurant and stood in a corner with few people. Then she answered the phone.
Lu Chengxi's deep voice came from the phone, and he said, "Have you seen what happened online?"
Tong Jiangxin caught a glimpse of the crowds of people on the street from the corner of her eye. She suppressed the anger and sadness in her heart, but her anger calmed down. She calmly replied, "I saw it."
The phone was silent for more than five seconds, and then Lu Chengxi's voice came, "I didn't do it."
To be honest, Tong Jiangxin didn't expect Lu Chengxi to say this. Although she didn't know what he wanted, she had definitely determined that it was him and thought he had called. There were only two possibilities. One was to blackmail her or let her
Whatever she did, the frontal photos would be exposed; secondly, he would call to mock her and see what kind of life she was living now.
