Chapter 41 Girl’s Heart

Ji An curled his lips, "What else could it be? It must be that they don't want to work with you anymore."

Gu Moyang later told him that on the day Jiang Jibai came to coordinate, he rejected her plan in person. When he heard that she was sad, he said that the plan was approved. Who wouldn't be angry?

This is not a joke.

Gu Moyang said with a cold face: "I always feel that there are other reasons for this matter, go and find out."

Jiang Jibai knew that she would not resign just because of a personal conflict with him.

What else could it be? In his opinion, the dog was just making excuses for his mistakes.

"What is this?" Ji An noticed a small figurine on Gu Moyang's desk. "It's quite cute. Did you bring it back from abroad?"

As Ji An was about to take it, Gu Moyang snatched it away quickly.

Ji An missed the target and raised his eyebrows. "Look at what's wrong. I didn't say I wouldn't return it to you, stingy guy."

Gu Moyang opened his suit jacket and put the figurine into the inside pocket. "You can't even look at it or touch it."

Ji An looked like he saw through everything. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Why do you, a straight man, always buy these kawaii things? Tell me the truth, do you have any special fetish?"

"Or maybe our seemingly cold and aloof Mr. Gu also has a girly heart!"

Gu Moyang glanced at him and threw a ball of waste paper at him, "Get out of here!"

After Ji An left, the office returned to silence.

The silent oppression enveloped him like a giant net. Gu Moyang took out the little figurine from his pocket. It was a big orange cat wearing a bee costume, with a naive smile on its face.

When he passed by the boutique and saw this little ornament for the first time, he was sure that she would like it.

Gu Moyang stared at the small ornament for a long time, then his gaze moved to the place where Jiang Jibai had sat, his eyes dim.

—

Just walked out of the dormitory door.

Gu Moyang was startled by the girl who bumped into him.

"Ouch!" The girl in front of him raised her head and rubbed her nose, "It hurts."

Gu Moyang lowered his eyes to see the face of the girl in front of him clearly.

A baby face with a bit of baby fat, and fair, delicate skin, which reminded him of a fruit, a peeled mangosteen. The air bangs on his forehead were messed up by the previous action.

Those lively and pure almond-shaped eyes were staring at him brightly.

"Sorry." Gu Moyang said to the girl in front of him.

After saying that, Gu Moyang took a long step forward as he was rushing to class.

"Hey!" The girl in front of her reached out to stop her, looking up without a trace of guilt. "You bumped into someone, and you want to leave just by saying sorry?"

Gu Moyang was helplessly amused. How could he not see that she bumped into him on purpose?

Every day he would encounter a few people who deliberately poured water, drinks or coffee on him.

She was squatting at the door of his dormitory, and this was the first time she had bumped into his arms so blatantly.

"Miss, if I'm not mistaken, it was you who bumped into me. I'm not holding you responsible, but you're trying to turn the tables on me?"

The girl coughed twice, a little embarrassed. "Since you've figured it out, I won't hide it anymore. My name is Jiang Jibai, and I'm a student in the Art Department of Jinghuai University."

Gu Moyang's face showed no expression. "I don't know you."

Jiang Jibai was not embarrassed. She raised her head and walked to a distance of only a fist from him. Gu Moyang could smell the faint fragrance of flowers on her body. She smiled generously and said, "It's okay, but I know you."

She opened her big, twinkling eyes and said, "Handsome boy, can I have a date?"

Gu Moyang was so choked by the girl's boldness and straightforwardness that he was speechless.

Then the girl's face in front of him suddenly became cold and thin, with tears on her face, and she looked at him in despair.

In a cold and ruthless voice, he said: "Gu Moyang, there will no longer be you in my future."

A feeling of suffocation came over me.

"Jiang Nuannuan!"

Gu Moyang woke up in shock and found that what had just happened was just a dream.

Fine beads of sweat covered his forehead. Gu Moyang sat up from the sofa, and the blanket covering him slipped off.

The office was dark. He glanced out the window and saw that the lights outside were already on.

Gu Moyang turned on the light, poured himself a glass of water, and pinched his throbbing temples.

He just picked up the phone when Secretary Shen came in to remind him, "Mr. Gu, there is a meeting in ten minutes."

Gu Moyang nodded at him, "Got it."

—

It was already ten o'clock in the evening when the meeting ended.

Ji An walked into Gu Moyang's office with a serious expression.

He was a little hesitant about whether to say this.

Once the matter is made public, Gu Moyang will definitely suffer a greater blow.

But if some things are not said out loud, the problems between them may never be resolved peacefully.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke, "We've found out the reason why Jiang Jibai resigned."

Gu Moyang raised his eyes to look at him and motioned him to continue.

"She did resign because you rejected her proposal, but your rejection of her proposal that day was the final straw that broke the camel's back."

"I checked her situation at the company and found that Jiang Jibai was not well-received there. She was bullied by her superiors, ridiculed by her colleagues, and isolated. She had been suppressed by her superiors and colleagues for a long time."

Gu Moyang's heart tightened and even his breathing stopped.

No wonder she was the one who did the hardest and most tiring work in the company's team-building event.

He recalled the scene of her carrying water from the bus alone that day, her red hands from being strangled, her sitting quietly by the river painting, out of tune with the noisy crowd, and her loneliness and helplessness when she was ridiculed and mocked.

He felt an inexplicable pain where his heart was, and his throat was dry and bitter.

Seeing the expression on Gu Moyang's face, Ji An couldn't bear to continue.

But if I don't speak out, how can I speak up for Jiang Jibai?

This time he stands on Jiang Jibai's side and wants to torture this dog to death!

"Jiang Jibai originally didn't want to take on the project you gave Chu Xin. You should know the reason why he didn't want to take it."

Gu Moyang glared at him, and Ji An felt a chill on his back and quickly continued.

"But the boss of their company was jealous of the profits from this project and threatened to resign to force Jiang Jibai to take on the project. Jiang Jibai must have been short of money and couldn't resign, so he was forced to take it."

"Oh!" Ji An sighed.

Gu Moyang glanced at him irritably: "Can you breathe less loudly? Keep talking."

"Her situation at the company will be even more difficult after accepting this. Who wouldn't be jealous? This has offended most of the company, making her situation even more difficult. I don't need to explain the rest."

Ji An glanced at him, and Gu Moyang's face looked frighteningly bad.

Although Gu Moyang's words were not pleasant in the past, at least his emotions were relatively stable.

Ever since Gu Moyang and Jiang Jibai broke up, his temper has become unpredictable, like a work machine without any human touch. His temper has also become more serious.

Ji An didn't want to hurt any innocent person, and that innocent person was himself.

"It's okay, I'll leave first."

The most important thing for him now is to protect himself.

Seeing that Gu Moyang didn't say anything, he took it as a tacit agreement and quickly slipped away.

Gu Moyang opened his phone and clicked on Jiang Nuannuan's column with trembling fingertips.

Let’s talk.

【I'll go to your house to find you.】

【We'll be there in half an hour.】

None of the three messages were sent, and there was a striking red exclamation mark on the left side of the message.
