Chapter 8 Jiang Siyu, the Liar
8
That's why she can easily distinguish the differences in these two seemingly identical pairs of eyes.
Compared to the coldness in his eyes today, Mu Qingye's eyes were always excited and passionate when he looked at her.
Moreover, Mu Qingye has an outgoing and unrestrained personality and has never liked wearing suits that require a high degree of etiquette.
Even on formal occasions, he would still do as he pleased, simply throwing on a hoodie and jeans, which he considered a formal outfit.
Even though the computer science genius was this outrageous, the professor could only jump up and down in frustration.
Jiang Siyu couldn't help but laugh when she thought of the professor's angry yet helpless expression when he found out she was his girlfriend and told her to keep an eye on Mu Qingye.
A crisp laugh echoed in the empty room, and Jiang Siyu's smile slowly froze on her lips.
Jiang Siyu, you know the consequences if I don't see you tomorrow.
Jiang Siyu, what am I to you?
【Ayu, why can't you move me to the front of the line? Why is everything around you more important than me?】
Jiang Siyu...
Happy breakup.
"Phew~" Jiang Siyu rubbed her slightly throbbing temples, suppressing the image of the man questioning her with red eyes in her mind, and then got up and went to the study.
After turning on her computer, she saw a notification pop up in her email and clicked on it.
This is DY's electronic appointment document.
The paper documents had already been sent to the headquarters of the branch office in China before I returned home.
As she searched through the documents for information on the domestic branches, Jiang Siyu's chaotic thoughts gradually calmed down amidst her busy work.
However, she wasn't the only one who couldn't sleep that night because of that unexpected glance.
"Jiang Siyu".
“Jiang Siyu…”
"fraud."
The man's low, slow murmurs repeated themselves over and over in the darkness.
As the wine glass spilled onto the floor, the person who had been sitting on the carpet with one knee bent and leaning dejectedly against the sofa slowly got up and picked up the phone that had been tossed away.
I opened the document Song Qi sent today, scrolled down skillfully until I saw the attached image at the bottom.
The woman in the picture is wearing a silver, sequined strapless fishtail dress. Her delicate and beautiful face is adorned with a bright and generous smile, and her upturned eyebrows and eyes gaze tenderly at the man who is bending down to listen to her.
Frédéric, the newly appointed president of DY, is also the head of the Arnault family, a family that has spanned two centuries.
According to foreign media reports, Frederick was surrounded by women and was a master at manipulating emotions.
Bo Siye raised his hand to stroke the curve of the woman's lips on the screen as she smiled, and gave a self-deprecating twitch at the corner of his mouth:
"Jiang Siyu, are you blind? How could you touch such filthy things?"
What about Frederick, besides his status and position, was there that would catch her eye?
Thinking of that brief encounter today, Bo Siye's already angry eyes became even more misty.
I've become the person you like...
Mature and calm.
Are you satisfied with the me you see today?

After several days of intermittent rain, the sun finally peeked out in Haicheng on Monday, as everyone rushed to their workstations.
As the start of the workday approached, the atmosphere in the office building of DY's domestic branch—Guanjing—was more serious than usual.
While hurriedly tidying up the table, everyone discussed in hushed tones.
"I heard the new president arrived today."
"There was no prior information, and we had no idea who this new president was. He was parachuted into headquarters without any prior announcement."
"That's right. Because of this matter, Vice President Lin hasn't given anyone a pleasant look lately."
"Everyone thought Vice President Lin would be promoted smoothly this time, but his position was suddenly taken away by someone else. No wonder he looked unhappy."
"I hope the new president's inauguration goes smoothly. Vice President Lin's cold face... I..."
'Ding!'
Amidst the ticking of the clock and a chorus of deliberately hushed voices, the sudden notification sound caused everyone to tacitly stop what they were doing.
As the doors of the president's private elevator slowly opened, everyone held their breath involuntarily.
A chorus of gasps rose and fell as the woman in the white pantsuit strode out of the elevator.
She gently pinned her permed curls to the side behind her head, but the calmness and sharpness in her eyes made people panic and look away the moment they met her gaze.
"President Jiang."
Anning, who had been waiting at the elevator entrance for a long time, hurriedly went to greet her.
As the secretary initially assigned to Jiang Siyu by the company, An Ning naturally knew what Jiang Siyu looked like before anyone else.
Last night, when Anning saw the photos, she thought the new CEO was a bit too beautiful, but seeing her in person today, she immediately felt that the photos were still too conservative.
An Ning remained calm: "Your personal office is this way, please follow me."
Jiang Siyu nodded and made the arrangements as she walked towards the office:
"Notify all project managers to bring their project documents to the office for a meeting in ten minutes."
An Ning was startled, knowing that everyone was on edge today, after all, a new broom sweeps clean.
"I'll go and inform them right away." With that, An Ning immediately relayed Jiang Siyu's request.
At the same time, the project leaders of the various projects under the Guanjing project, upon receiving the news, also sprang into action.
In an office not far from Jiang Siyu, Vice President Lin, having received the news, coldly watched the bustling crowd outside, remaining seated and unmoved.
His assistant reminded him, "Mr. Lin, there's only one minute left."
"One minute is fine." Lin Sui played with his phone, completely ignoring Jiang Siyu, the newly appointed president.
He glanced at the photo on the computer and sneered, "A woman who gets ahead by relying on her face is nothing to be afraid of."
So what if she suddenly becomes the president of Guanjing? It won't be long before I can make her cry and get out of Guanjing.
As the clock struck nine, in the largest conference room of Guanjing, the project leaders were already seated on either side of the conference table according to their project level.
Besides the projects that have been completed, Guanjing is currently working on more than sixty projects, so the meeting room is almost full.
When Jiang Siyu pushed open the door, she saw a series of serious and tense faces.
She walked straight to the empty chair in the middle, sat down, and turned on the computer she had brought.
"Is everyone here?" Jiang Siyu asked.
An Ning started checking the number of people as soon as she entered the meeting room. When Jiang Siyu asked a question, she immediately replied:
“All the project leaders are here, but…”

On a side note: I recently saw some controversy saying that the male lead's appearance hasn't changed at all, but the female lead can't recognize him, which is ridiculous. But I've reread it several times and still insist on writing it this way.
1. The male and female leads had not seen each other for two years. When they suddenly reunited, they did not communicate at all. Why should the female lead go up to him and ask, "Hey, are you my ex?"
Confirming something definitely requires a confirmation process.
2. The female lead didn't actually fail to recognize the male lead. In Chapter 10, when they met for the second time, the female lead initially suspected the male lead's identity, but because the male lead's name was different from her ex's, she made other guesses.
After a brief encounter, the female protagonist was certain once again that the male protagonist was her ex-boyfriend, and the text clearly stated this.
So how could the female lead not recognize the male lead as her ex?
If it's really that hard to understand, then this book isn't suitable for you. Just quietly leave and find something more suitable. There's no need to attack my female lead to seek attention. Goodbye.
