"But Second Master, I discovered..."

Su Chen wanted to mention the emerald ring, but halfway through his sentence, Huo Zhanhe's phone rang. His subordinate handed it to him and gave Su Chen a warning look, so Su Chen immediately shut up.

Huo Zhanhe slowly got up to answer the phone and didn't return for a while.

After returning, she gave Su Chen a cold glance and said, "You can leave now."

"Second Master?"

"Huo Zhixing is in England, Manchester!" Huo Zhanhe completely lost his patience. "He's going to London tomorrow, and flying to Paris the day after! Where the hell did you find this rubbish information?!"

He threw all the information about Gu Mang into the air, and the pages scattered like snowflakes.

Su Chen was startled, and then Huo Zhanhe's men showed him a video. The person in the video had their back to the camera, but it was not hard to tell that the person was dressed in an exceptionally noble manner.

The background of the image is Albert Square, a landmark building in Manchester.

"No...that's impossible!"

"What's impossible?" Huo Zhanhe rolled his eyes at him. "I'd recognize the back of Huo Zhixing's head even if it were flattened into a meat patty! Besides, he goes to Albert Square to feed the pigeons all the time; it's been a habit of his since he was a child!"

Su Chen swallowed back what he wanted to say, his face extremely pale.

Could it be that I really made a mistake? Well, there are countless people in this world who look alike, and besides, given Huo Zhixing's taste, how could he possibly marry Jiang Can?

But that ring is really too strange...

"If you have nothing else to say, get back to Jiangzhou!" Huo Zhanhe said impatiently. "Don't act like I've helped you so much in front of others! Remember, we don't know each other! The old man has his eye on me now, and I'm so annoyed with him. I don't even know how I'm going to solve all these problems!"

"Yes." Su Chen bowed his head respectfully.

"And another thing." Huo Zhanhe's gaze was cold. After a moment of thought, he slowly instructed, "As for this Gu Mang, keep a close eye on him and report to me immediately if anything happens."

Su Chen nodded and went out, quickly disappearing into the night.

...

With Sun Teng and Fang Jinyang gone from the company, Jiang Can's life is much better than before.

As for Cheng Xiaoxiao, without Sun Teng's support in the board of directors, her status plummeted. Colleagues who weren't on good terms with her to begin with all kicked her while she was down, just to vent their pent-up anger.

At a recent company meeting, the board of directors announced the removal of Cheng Xiaoxiao from her supervisory position and replacement by Jiang Can.

Jiang Can sat down in Cheng Xiaoxiao's old office, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She sat there in a daze, not responding even when An An knocked on the door several times, until An An walked in and stood in front of her, at which point she finally came to her senses.

"What's wrong? You look like you've lost your soul!" An'an placed the documents in front of her and chuckled, "Boss, please sign!"

Jiang Can smiled, quickly went through it, and signed her name at the end.

Since becoming a supervisor, she has received countless documents for signature every day. She also deeply feels the weight of the responsibility on her shoulders and dares not slack off for a moment.

"You don't look well," An'an said, looking at her with concern. "Have you been too tired lately?"

"Work is quite busy," Jiang Can chuckled. "I didn't realize it before, but now that I'm in Cheng Xiaoxiao's position, I understand that being a leader isn't as easy as it seems!"

"Of course, the words 'responsibility' and 'duty' go hand in hand! The higher the position, the greater the responsibility!"

"By the way, Jiang Can," An'an whispered, "don't take the rumors circulating in the company to heart..."

"What rumor?"

"You don't know?" An'an was taken aback, then told her seriously, "It's about you and President Su. Some people say that President Su is like he's possessed, he keeps getting you to sign contracts and he's pushed you into the position of sales manager."

Jiang Can was also stunned.

Thinking about it carefully, there does seem to be some rumors circulating. Moreover, Su Chen is indeed acting strangely, facilitating five orders in a row and specifically requesting to collaborate with Jiang Can.

With such a brilliant record, how could Jiang Can not be promoted?

but……

“Those collaborative projects with President Su were actually beneficial to both of us,” she murmured. “I just don’t understand why he insisted on collaborating with me.”

"That must be because they value your abilities!" An'an patted her shoulder. "Don't overthink it. I bet this rumor came from Cheng Xiaoxiao. She's lost power and doesn't have any real skills, so she's definitely jealous of you!"

"Don't worry, Jiang Can, all of us colleagues will support you in your work. Just show your true abilities and stand up to her to the end!"

Jiang Can smiled gratefully and shook her hand.

However, she knew in her heart that there were many capable people in the company, and Su Chen didn't necessarily have to sign those orders with her. Lately, Su Chen had been intentionally or unintentionally getting close to her, but it didn't seem like he had any ulterior motives.

The crux of the problem began when Su Chen saw her emerald ring.

Jiang Can carefully went through it all; every time Su Chen sent her a greeting message, he would always include Gu Mang in it.

For example, Su Chen would ask her which boxing gym Gu Mang taught at, as he was thinking of working out and learning boxing.

Or perhaps you could casually ask her how she met Gu Mang, how they dated, and how they got married...

He even said that he was driving past her company and offered to take her home.

Jiang Can became suspicious, but she couldn't figure out exactly what was suspicious about this person.

"I think that Mr. Su seems to be very interested in you."

Jiang Can was tidying up her room at home when the thumping sounds of Gu Mang practicing boxing on the balcony occasionally reached her ears.

She stopped what she was doing and stared blankly into the distance. The sun was about to set, and the last rays of the setting sun cast their golden light upon the earth.

And Gu Mang was delivering powerful punches one after another in this rosy glow.

His bare upper body was muscular and defined, and sweat dripped down his hard chest, making his already handsome features look even more fierce and heroic.

Jiang Can suddenly thought of Apollo, the god of war in Greek mythology. The god of war walking in the sunlight, it must look like this...

"Honey, what did you just say?"

Jiang Can paused for a moment, then lowered her head shyly, a blush creeping onto her face.

"Oh, it's nothing." She walked up to him gently and skillfully helped him remove his boxing gloves and change his sweat-soaked bandages.

Gu Mang gently stroked her hair, his eyes filled with tenderness. If he weren't covered in sweat, he really wanted to hug her and pin her down on the sofa again, giving her a good thrashing...

“Oh, right,” Jiang Can suddenly remembered what she wanted to tell him, “I think it would be better to tell you about what happened earlier.”

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"It's about that Su Chen." She frowned slightly. "Honey, he's been acting strange. Lately, he's been asking me about you!"

Gu Mang's eyes darkened, and he clutched the removed bandage in his hand, crumpling it into a tight ball.
