Chapter 102 - Showing up at Work

Yu Huiyin woke up the following day feeling rested. She was not tired or overthinking about what she had been told the day before; instead, she was calm and collected.

She understood Xie Jingyu well and knew that he had merely acted without a care in the world, and while she was somewhat uncomfortable about him having made that agreement, she could not change the past.

She also did not doubt him, and since he had promised that he did not love this Lu Changying, she did not fear that they would end up divorcing for her sake.

Since this woman could not come between them, why should she care about an old agreement that would never come true anyway?

Yu Huiyin felt much more at ease after thinking through the whole situation. She found her clothes and moved to the bathroom to wash up, and after she was done, she walked downstairs only to see that Xie Jingyu was seated at the dining table, waiting for her to come down.

"Did you sleep well?" Xie Jingyu asked gently, and Yu Huiyin nodded her head with a brilliant smile on her face.

"Are we going to work today?" Yu Huiyin asked, and Xie Jingyu nodded his head. "We are going to the office today. We have invested in a project that has been offered by the government. We are not sure who will win the contract yet, and today is when they announce it, so we have to be there, just in case we will win the bid."

Yu Huiyin had been working with Xie Jingyu for some time now, and she knew which project he was talking about.

"It is Emperor's Entertainment City, right?" she asked, and he nodded.

"You did a lot for this contract," Yu Huiyin frowned. "But you don't sound very confident about winning it?"

Xie Jingyu raised his head and looked at Yu Huiyin. He could see that she was nervous for him, and he could not help but chuckle. "We have a lot of projects every year," he said.

"Although we do our best, we cannot win every time. We will indeed earn a lot if we win the bid Emperor's Entertainment City, but there are so many companies out there that want to work with our company. If we lose one project, we can always earn it back with another."

Yu Huiyin was silent while thinking about what Xie Jingyu said, and she understood the reasoning in what she said, however, she still felt that it would be better to get every project.

"I hope you win today's bidding for the contract," she said while puffing up her cheeks. She understood that he would not lose much if he did not win, but he would still stand to gain quite a bit.

Seeing her acting so stubborn, Xie Jingyu shook his head, but he was much happier than before. He knew that she was thinking for him, and wanted him to have the best. Hence, she wanted everything he fought for to become his, but both of them knew that the world was cruel, and fairness did not exist.

While she wanted him to get the best, she knew that it was impossible to get everything you wanted, sometimes you had to learn how to let go.

Yu Huiyin did not mention it any longer. She sat down next to Xie Jingyu and reached for breakfast dishes.

A smile was present on her lips as she felt at peace next to Xie Jingyu. The two of them were not always talking, but the sense of comfort they got from one another was simply amazing.

Like this, they finished their breakfast, got ready, and drove towards the group's office.

As they arrived, many looked curiously at both Yu Huiyin and Xie Jingyu. It was clear that they wanted to gossip about their relationship, but dared not.

It was very different from the usual. Although they had been previously gossiping about Yu Huiyin, this time, they were observing her as if looking at some drama that was about to unfold.

Yu Huiyin could not help but feel a little confused as to what was happening as she looked around, but no one came up to tell her anything, and Xie Jingyu was not in the mood to care about what the ordinary workers of his company though, or how they looked at them.

And precisely because of this, he was shocked when he reached the upper floor where his office was located.

He arrived holding Yu Huiyin's hand gently in his broad palm, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks as he saw Lu Changying standing before his office door.

Lu Changying was very different from Yu Huiyin. Where Changying was mature and looked like a successful businesswoman, Huiyin, on the other hand, looked like a breath of fresh air. She was extremely attractive and youthful.

Lu Changying had heard about Yu Huiyin before, but upon seeing the real person, the feeling of threat in her heart exploded.

This Yu Huiyin was simply too beautiful! If she allowed for this woman to stay by Xie Jingyu's side, it was no doubt that she would steal his heart away and she could not afford that, so she already began plotting about how to get rid of Yu Huiyin, but her expression was gentle and refined, showing none of her thoughts.

But Yu Huiyin could feel the hostility wafting from her body, and her eyes displayed malice when looking at the interlocked hands of Xie Jingyu and Yu Huiyin.

Although Yu Huiyin had reached a point where she did not blame Xie Jingyu for the agreement in the past, she was still quite displeased with seeing Lu Changying appearing in front of her at the office.
