C80 – Heartwarming Comfort

What?!

Wen Shuyue didn’t think it would affect the company, so she hurried to Gu Ning’s office.

Gu Ning was having a meeting with several directors in the conference room. Wen Shuyue had no choice but to wait for him in the office.

“Mr. Gu, this is really a big deal. Shall we fire Wen Shuyue?”

Footsteps were heard outside, and then came the voice of Gu Ning’s secretary.

Outside came the sound of footsteps and then the voice of Gu Ning’s secretary, which made Wen Shuyue jitter. She waited nervously for Gu Ning’s answer.

Gu Ning, however, pushed the door and walked in without saying a word. When he saw Wen Shuyue, his expression was a little complicated, and he waved to the secretary to let her go. 

“What do you think of what happened in the company?” Gu Ning said leisurely. Instead of making a pre-emptive strike as soon as he opened his mouth, he talked about the company first. 

Wen Shuyue pursed her lips and said apologetically, “Sorry, this is all my fault. No matter how you punish me, I won’t have any complaints. I hope to make up for the loss to the company. You can fire me if…”

“Do you want to leave the company so badly? Wen Shuyue, would you please stop talking about quitting? ” Before Wen Shuyue finished speaking, Gu Ning interrupted her angrily.

He hated it most when she offered to leave. To put it another way, he was afraid that she would leave the company without saying a word.

Working for the same company was the only opportunity they have. Once Wen Shuyue was gone, it was hard for him to see her again, and there was no longer any possibility between them.

Wen Shuyue didn’t expect Gu Ning to be so angry because of what she said. She was shocked, but she still said in all seriousness, “A lot of people in the company have problems with me right now. When you were in the meeting just now, many directors wanted me to go, right? Mr. Gu, I know you think a lot of me, but I really don’t want to put you on the spot.”

“Wen Shuyue, you don’t know what you are talking about. It’s your leaving that makes it so difficult for me.” Gu Ning blurted out the sentence without even thinking about it. The latter sentence always sounded ambiguous.

Whatever the decision, Gu Ning’s words made Wen Shuyue feel a little happy. At least it showed that they had had a real relationship before, though it was so subtle that no one cared.

Aware that he had said the wrong thing, Gu Ning looked a little unnatural, and hurriedly said, “now many directors have begun to keep an eye on me. If even you leave at this time, who else can help me?”

“Mr. Gu,”

“Shuyue, we have always helped each other. How can we be separated when this kind of thing happens now? Under no circumstances will I let you leave the company, and you should stop thinking about quitting. ” Gu Ning said lightly.

He looked at her, and there was a touch of unknown complex feelings in his phoenix eyes. He said to her seriously, “tell me honestly, why on earth did you go to the police station?” Why do you need a lawyer? “

While it was inevitable that she would be asked about it, Wen Shuyue still didn’t think out her answer.

She bowed her head and thought for a moment, trying to compose her words, and then said bitterly, “I went to the police station to see my father. He’s not dead, he’s in jail for something, but because he was set up, I’m looking for a lawyer to help clear his name.”

“Uncle hasn’t died yet? That’s good.” Gu Ning was really happy for her after hearing the news.

He had known Wen Shuyue for a long time. He knew how sad Wen Shuyue was at that time because of the family affair. Gu Ning was happy to know that her parents are still alive.

Wen Shuyue felt so helpless. It was a happy thing, but it turned out to be such a mess. Now everyone knew her husband was in prison before.

“Don’t worry. I will try my best to calm down this rumor. Don’t worry about the project. I will explain the situation to our partner and ask him to give us another chance.” When Wen Shuyue smiled sadly and did not speak, Gu Ning spoke again.

After a few moments of discussion, Wen Shuyue returned to her office.

She kept calling Lawyer Zhang and didn’t care what the people in the company thought. She was willing to lose anything as long as her father could come out of prison safely.

The rumor about Wen Shuyue’s husband being in prison also reached He Siming’s ears. He Siming knew what was going on and was even angrier when he heard the news.

“Guan Yue, told them to find the person who spread the rumor.” He Siming said with seriousness.

“Yes, Sir.” Guan Yue answered and hurried out.

Wen Shuyue must be badly hurt now. He Siming’s heart clenched as he thought that she was burdening everything on her own.

Under this circumstance, no matter what he did, he could not calm down, so he put all his work aside and drove to Mk to look for Wen Shuyue by himself.

Wen Shuyue just came out of the meeting room when she saw He Siming. Especially he sat on her desk, which made Wen Shuyue surprised. Apparently, she didn’t think He Siming would come to visit her. 

“Mr. He, what can I do for you? If there is nothing important, I have to work. ” Wen Shuyue said politely and awkwardly. Although she was the only one in the office, she didn’t want anyone to see her jokes.

“Stop pretending to be strong, since something so big has happened.” He Siming said indifferently, with a faint hint of concern in his low and cold voice.

At this, Wen Shuyue’s body trembled uncontrollably. She tried to speak back, but the words on her lips choked them back.

It had been known by so many people that she had nothing to refute. Wen Shuyue smiled wryly. God knew how much she hated herself now.

He Siming stood up and looked at her from above. His big hand suddenly raised her chin. “If you have held on to something so serious in those days, you must still be able to hold on to it now.”

“He Siming?” She didn’t expect him to comfort her so much. Wen Shuyue was touched beyond words.

Had he come on purpose to tell her about it? If so, did that mean that he cared about her?

Wen Shuyue suddenly felt sweet in her heart as if so many grievances were offset by his heartwarming comfort.
