Chapter 700 - 687
Fu Xianlin came to the hospital after work and brought news to Le Zhengsheng.
"A Sheng, can you attend the event I mentioned before?"
"Hmm?" Le Zhengsheng was taken aback, confusion written on his pale face, "Master, can I go?"
Over the years, even though he has been following Fu Xianlin closely, he is unable to take charge like Fu Xianlin does. He wasn’t initially trained in economics, so achieving the progress he has today is certainly not easy.
Fu Xianlin nodded, but his brows slightly furrowed, "Yes, you can go..."
He didn’t mention that this was specifically suggested by Helian Si.
"Master," Le Zhengsheng smiled, feeling happy about such an opportunity, "But in my current state..."
His body hasn’t healed yet, which is indeed inconvenient.
Fu Xianlin considered for him, "Maybe you could spare a few hours? Such opportunities don’t come often, and I can formally introduce you to everyone... After all, you’re still new in this field, and in today’s information explosion era, connections are very important."
Le Zhengsheng understood this principle and made up his mind, "Master, I’ll definitely go."
Yu Sangwan listened to their conversation and sighed, "Can’t stay still even when sick."
"I’ll be careful," Le Zhengsheng smiled, "Wanwan, I’ve been following the Master for so many years."
"I know, I’m not stopping you," Yu Sangwan shook her head with a smile, "Remember to take your medicine, no drinking... Don’t overwork yourself, don’t wait until the end to come back, it’s enough to do what’s necessary."
Le Zhengsheng raised his hand in a salute, "Yes!"
In the evening, Fu Xianlin and Yu Sangwan went home together.
In the car, Fu Xianlin asked his daughter, "Taotao, with A Sheng like this now, what are your plans for the future?"
"..." Yu Sangwan was slightly startled, lowered her eyes, and sighed, "Dad, I regard A Sheng as family."
Fu Xianlin paused silently, "Dad gets it, Dad won’t force you to make any decision... If there’s really no fate, Dad will spend the rest of his life with you and little Mantou."
"Dad," Yu Sangwan held her father’s hand, thinking of Tu Shanni, "You’ve been alone for so many years; won’t you feel lonely? Actually, I wouldn’t mind having a stepmother."
"Hehe," Fu Xianlin laughed, "Silly child, having you and little Mantou is enough for Dad this lifetime."
Unexpectedly, Yu Sangwan felt somewhat guilty... This lifetime, her father was deeply hurt by Tu Shanni!
She must keep the fact that she’s supporting Tu Shanni hidden from her father forever. The next day, Yu Sangwan went back to work.
As usual, she arrived relatively early.
While swiping her card, she ran into Chen Ke.
"Yu Sangwan," Chen Ke greeted with a gentle smile, "Good morning!"
Yu Sangwan smiled back, "Morning."
"Hey..." Chen Ke leaned closer and whispered, "I heard you resigned? Seems like another rumor! I was even wondering if I might have a chance..."
Yu Sangwan was taken aback and looked at Chen Ke, "Are you interested in becoming a Cabinet spokesperson?"
"Of course," Chen Ke raised his hand and rubbed the back of his head, smiling, "Is it strange? I think anyone with some ambition has this idea, right?"
Yu Sangwan shrugged and pointed to her wristwatch, "I need to get to work..."
"Okay, let’s stay in touch."
"Hmm."
Watching Yu Sangwan walk inside, the smile on Chen Ke’s face faded. A spark flickered in his deep eyes... Yu Sangwan’s resignation is surely settled! His information can’t be wrong. But why is she back again?
What should he do to replace her position? Only then can he get closer to Helian Si!
As he thought about these things, Chen Ke turned and walked out.
Leaving the administrative building, Chen Ke exited through the side door. Halfway there, he ran into Helian Shuang who was heading out.
Chen Ke wanted to change direction, but it was too late, so he stood respectfully to the side, waiting for Helian Shuang to pass by first. "Miss."
Helian Shuang nodded coldly, completely ignoring Chen Ke, not even glancing at him from the corner of her eye... She walked straight ahead.
Behind her, Chen Ke clenched his fists tightly, the hatred in his eyes intensified, as if he had a deep-seated grudge against Helian Shuang!
...
Helian Si’s office.
Yu Sangwan worked as usual, barely exchanging glances with Helian Si.
After delivering the morning tea, she was about to leave when Helian Si spoke.
"Are you resigning?"
Yu Sangwan was startled, she initially had this thought, but... if Helian Si doesn’t mind their awkward relationship, she’d fight alongside him. However, after what happened at that press conference, Yu Sangwan felt doubtful.
"Hmph."
Seeing her silent, Helian Si smirked, "Rest assured, since you want to leave, I won’t force you to stay... The reason you’re back is because we haven’t found a suitable person yet. Once we do, you’ll naturally be let go."
"..."
Yu Sangwan opened her mouth, "Ah..."
"Get back to work." Helian Si didn’t look at her, using an entirely business-like tone.
Blocking all the words Yu Sangwan wanted to explain, she could only nod, "Yes, I’ll get back to work."
As soon as Yu Sangwan left, Helian Si raised the pen in his hand and violently threw it at the wall!
Helian Si felt stifled, tugged at his tie. What’s this?
Coming back to work was something he coerced! After arriving, she didn’t even give a single explanation about that day? Truly doesn’t care! How little must she think of him to deal with it so calmly?
Suddenly, he thought of Le Zhengsheng. Is she gentle with that Le Zhengsheng? She took care of him in the hospital for several days; what exactly did she do?
The more he thought, the more chaotic it became. Helian Si felt... he was about to explode!
...
Chen Ke was out on a field assignment, responsible for social news, which tended to be more scattered.
However, upon receiving such a task today, he couldn’t help but complain, "Please get your insider sources right, we journalists at Guan Chao don’t cover these entertainment gossip..."
A sharp voice suddenly rose in the hotel suite.
"Hey, what are you saying?"
Chen Ke froze, seeing a tall young girl walk straight towards him. Although she wore heavy makeup, it wasn’t unappealing; that’s the advantage of high looks. As long as someone is pretty, they look good however they’re styled.
Chen Ke had some impression of this beauty; she was a fairly popular model online.
Faced with the beauty, Chen Ke naturally showed some courtesy, "Sorry, I’m not targeting you."
This girl was none other than Yu Sangwan’s old best friend... Pei Pei.
Pei Pei crossed her arms and pointed to the corner, "Tch! I don’t care if you’re targeting me or not! Since you’re here, quickly take more photos of that bastard! This freak... daring to make a move on me! Unspoken rules? Not even for jerks like him! Even his hair is barely there!"
"..."
Listening to her rant, Chen Ke couldn’t help but smile.
What a beautiful girl, what a lively personality.
He was used to being gloomy and lacked vigor; this girl’s exuberant nature stood in stark contrast... It indeed aroused his favor.
