When I returned home, I carefully put away the bracelet that Bo Lengqing had given me, but in my heart, I kept thinking that if there came a day when he loathed me, I would return this bracelet to him.

And I have a feeling that it won't be too late.

The first morning I went to the office, I was just sitting down when I heard a burst of chatter, and the women who were talking about the songs looked up at me from time to time, and their faces were filled with schadenfreude and sympathy.

I was a little puzzled. Xiao Wei carried a document and walked to my side, worriedly looking at me.

"Su Cha, are you alright?"

I was even more confused. "Should I have something going on?"

Xiao Wei held my hand and walked into the empty corridor. He looked around and said, "It seems like you don't know yet, right?"

"What's going on?"

"Today, the CEO brought a beautiful woman to work. She was talking and laughing with that woman. She's simply a person of flesh and blood!"

The Xiao Wei's description was very concrete. However, Bo Lengqing had an indifferent expression before, like he was a stranger that couldn't get close, making people feel like he was a huge block of ice from the South Pole.

"You're still laughing, are you able to feel a sense of danger?!" Su Cha, don't think that just because you married him that you would have nothing to fear. Do you know how many eyes there are on rich people like him? Just speak of our company's female staff, why do they always criticize you? They're just jealous and envious! "

"A sense of danger? What sense of crisis do I need? This is saying that there's no scent of wild flowers here. I'm just someone in a higher position, so everyone is waiting to see me become a joke! "

I don't care about the opinions of others at all. In any case, in the eyes of others, I'm just a bad woman who stole my sister's husband.

"Su Cha! So it turns out that you are also here! " Just at this moment, a familiar and pleasant voice suddenly came from behind me. Xiao Wei's expression instantly turned nervous and unsightly, she used her eyes to signal me that the female lead of today's Eight Trigrams was her.

I turned around and saw Lin Ran walking towards me with a smile, looking as if he was extremely familiar with me.

"Miss Lin." I smiled back at her. After all, she had saved my life last night and was now my savior.

"Hello, Vice-President Lin!" Xiao Wei purposely mentioned Lin Ran's title loudly, then gave me a look before leaving.

"Which department are you in?" We'll be colleagues from now on, so you need to take care of us. " Lin Ran smiled gently. I was a little embarrassed, but I couldn't tell her that I was just an ordinary clerk that couldn't be any smaller in the company, right?

"It should be hard for you to keep helping Leng Qing, right? After all, it's not easy to run such a large company … "In order to become his right-hand man, I specially went to the United States to study business and finance, but now these things are piling up on top of my head …"

The smile on her face had always been very gentle, and when she mentioned Bo Lengqing, it was even gentler.

"I don't understand what you're saying." I smiled bitterly. "I am just an ordinary clerk. I don't know much, so I am unable to help him."

"Is that so?" I don't know if it's because I heard wrongly, but Lin Ran's voice carried some meaning, and even her smile became more brilliant.

I began to feel uncomfortable, deliberately wanting to distance myself from her.

This feeling of inferiority due to being dwarfed made me wonder if she had some other motive for getting close to Bo Lengqing.

And I know that for an enemy like this, I am no match for him.

"Vice President Lin, the CEO is looking for you."

It was at this time that Black Hawk appeared and helped me resolve this embarrassing situation. Lin Ran quickly left on his high heels and I instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Good morning Madam." Black Hawk walked to my side.

I nodded.

"Miss Lin …" He seemed to want to say something to me, but stopped himself.

"What's wrong?"

"Miss Lin is the CEO's good friend. She has helped the CEO a lot, so the CEO values her a little too. Madam, please do not misunderstand."

I was stunned for a moment before laughing out loud. "I understand."

I hope that Lin Ran can quickly take away the attention that Bo Lengqing had placed on me, so that I can regain my freedom sooner.

When he went back home at night, he found that the usually cold house had suddenly been lit up and the table was filled with dishes. Bo Lengqing had never been in the habit of returning home to eat, so he felt less human.

I frowned as I walked in. I saw that Lin Ran had put his long hair up at some point and was busy working on his apron.

I was about to turn and go upstairs, but she saw me first.

"Su Cha, you're here? Just sit on the sofa and wait. When Leng Qing comes back, we'll eat together, okay? "

Her gentle and warm attitude was just right, but I felt a bit uncomfortable — compared to me, Lin Ran was more like the mistress of this room.

"I'm not hungry. I'll go up first." Raising a smile of difficulty, I walked up the stairs step by step.

I lay in bed and read for a while, my stomach growling with hunger, but when I thought of the cozy scene downstairs, I didn't want to be a light bulb that would destroy them.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. I thought it was Bo Lengqing who immediately turned over and covered himself with the blanket, pretending to be asleep.

"Su Cha, are you still sleeping? "Is your body not feeling well? Let me bring the chicken soup to you …"

Before she could finish her sentence, the chicken soup spilled all over the floor. I quickly sat up and looked at her.

"Are you all right? Have you been scalded? "

Just then, Bo Lengqing walked in.

He frowned as he looked at the ground littered with chicken soup and Lin Ran who was at a loss about what to do.

"Su Cha, is this how you treat your guest?"

I widened my eyes and looked at Bo Lengqing in disbelief. Lin Ran immediately pulled Bo Lengqing's hand and explained to him, "Leng Qing, did you misunderstand? This is not what you think, it has nothing to do with Su Cha …"

"Apologize." He spoke coldly, with no intention of listening to my explanation.

"I didn't do anything. Why should I apologize?" I stubbornly looked at Bo Lengqing.

"Leng Qing, don't be so fierce. This matter has nothing to do with Su Cha.

"Apologize!" Bo Lengqing's attitude is very unyielding, but I find it funny.

"Lin Ran has already said that this has nothing to do with me …"

With a "pa" sound, the surrounding air became completely silent.

"Leng Qing!" Bo Lengqing gasped as he covered his mouth. Looking at his hand, Bo Lengqing felt a moment of absent-mindedness, but very quickly, it returned back to being indifferent.

The side of my face burned.

He hit me.

He hit me in front of an outsider for something he didn't want to do.

My red eyes filled with tears, but I clenched my teeth to stop them.

"I'll say it again, I won't admit to anything that I haven't done!"

After saying that, I quickly got up from the bed and stomped on the broken pieces of the bowl containing the chicken soup with my bare feet. Without looking back, I ran out of the room.

I didn't run very far. The villa area was huge, and I only had one thought on my mind: I didn't want to be under the same roof as them. I just wanted to find a place where no one could see me.

What makes me sad isn't Bo Lengqing's attitude, but that he never thought of trusting me, to the point where he wouldn't listen to my explanation at all.

I suddenly felt that it was laughable. I already had a premonition that I would be quickly abandoned, but I didn't expect this premonition to come so quickly.

This way is also good. I don't want to lie to Bo Lengqing and my own feelings anymore. I was also afraid that if he was really always kind to me, I would not be able to hold on to my heart.

I didn't know where I had run off to. I only knew that there was a big rock behind me. I leaned on it and shed tears.

I was born and bred, and have lived for more than twenty years. I have suffered all sorts of grievances, and I hate being wronged by others.

I suddenly thought of Mu Chen.

Perhaps this is retribution. I let him die because of grievances, so that's why he kept punishing me.

Mu Chen, I missed you so much.

If you were still alive, you would have protected me at all costs. You wouldn't have let me suffer any grievances or harm, right?
