Chapter 15 Secretary Li has paranoid delusions
Shen Yubai stood tall and straight, gazing down at Li Ruchu with a complex look in his eyes.
The air in the office seemed to freeze in an instant, and the silence was somewhat depressing.
After a long time, Li Ruochu slowly raised his head, his eyes met Shen Yubai's gaze, and said with a somewhat irritated tone: "I haven't eaten yet, if you have to fart, please fart quickly, okay!"
"I know you blame Qiu Ying for the project, but this is not something I can decide alone." Shen Yubai frowned slightly, with a helpless look on his face. He leaned forward slightly, trying to make his tone sound more sincere, "Next time, I will definitely give you important projects of the company."
"No, no," Li Ruochu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, pulling out a mocking smile, supporting his chin with one hand, tilting his head, looking at Shen Yubai with a teasing look, "If Mr. Shen can divorce me earlier, I can hand over all the projects to Gu Qiuying."
When Shen Yubai heard this, his face instantly darkened, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
He took a step forward, his movements somewhat hasty, and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Li Ruochu's arm: "Li Ruochu, I told you not to mention the word divorce to me in the future. Don't you understand? Or are you attracted to another man?"
As he spoke, he moved closer to Li Ruochu, his breathing became a little rapid, and the breath sprayed on Li Ruochu's face, bringing a sense of oppression.
Thinking of the seemingly intimate interaction between Li Ruochu and Feng Yizhou in the office that morning, his eyes grew colder and jealousy burned in his heart.
"Ha!" Li Ruochu couldn't help but laugh, and that laughter was full of sarcasm and sadness.
She struggled hard, trying to break free from Shen Yubai's grip, but failed: "When you went to bed with Gu Qiuying, did you ever think about the consequences?"
When Shen Yubai heard this, the hand holding Li Ruochu's arm loosened slightly, his expression relaxed, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face.
He looked away and then explained, "I said, the Gu family has done me a favor."
"So, use your body to repay your kindness. Chen Yubai, I'm tired and don't want to deal with you and your feelings anymore." Li Ruochu gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.
She used all her strength to break free from Shen Yubai's hand. When she turned around, the chair made a harsh sound as it rubbed against the ground.
She hurried out of her office without looking back, leaving Shen Yubai standing there alone, with complicated emotions in her eyes.
When I arrived downstairs of the company, the street was busy with cars and people coming and going, and it was noisy and lively.
Li Ruochu went to a restaurant and ordered lunch.
She found a seat in a corner and sat down. Looking at the food in front of her, she suddenly lost her appetite.
She picked up the chopsticks, mechanically picked up a mouthful of food and put it into her mouth. After chewing it a few times, tears burst out uncontrollably.
She cried and sobbed, "Damn it, the boss's cooking skills are getting worse and worse!"
"Why, you didn't take over the project, so you come here crying?" A familiar and somewhat teasing voice came from the front.
Li Ruchu knew it was Feng Yizhou without even looking up.
Her heart tightened and she hurriedly wiped the tears from her face with the back of her hand, then quickly picked up a tissue and wiped the tears vigorously.
"Then I have to thank President Feng for his 'care' for me." Li Ruochu raised his head, looked at Feng Yizhou, and forced a smile on his face.
She never thought that she would meet this guy just when she went out for a meal.
If he wasn't powerful and influential in the industry, he would have already...
But then she changed her mind and realized sadly that she was just an insignificant little person and could do nothing in this world where the strong prey on the weak.
"Secretary Li, stop laughing. This smile is really ugly!" Feng Yizhou crossed his arms in front of his chest, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
Although he expressed disgust mercilessly with his mouth, his body was honest enough to reach out and pick up a tissue and hand it to Li Ruochu.
"Jiang Mu told me everything about you," Feng Yizhou leaned over slightly, approaching Li Ruochu, with a faint smile on his face and a hint of temptation in his tone, "Are you interested in developing in my company?"
"Mr. Feng, please stop joking." Li Ruochu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Jiang Mu, who is beside Feng Yizhou, is extremely capable and is a mainstay in the company. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the second-in-command of the company.
And he has been working in the business world for many years, and his strength should not be underestimated.
But Feng Yizhou suddenly proposed to poach him. Was he trying to make the two of them equally successful, or was he planning to fire Jiang Mu and let himself take the position of special assistant?
"Do I look like I'm kidding?" Feng Yizhou raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Doesn't President Feng hate me very much?" Li Ruochu raised his head, looked directly at Feng Yizhou, and asked back with a hint of stubbornness in his eyes.
"It seems that I have been really wronged. When did I say that I hate you, Secretary Li?" Feng Yizhou spread out his hands, with an innocent expression on his face, but a hint of imperceptible cunning flashed in his eyes.
"Didn't you say in the president's office that Gu Qiuying is very capable and I can't compare to her?" Li Ruochu frowned, a look of grievance emerging on his face.
"Secretary Li, I think you are suffering from paranoid delusions!" Feng Yizhou couldn't help laughing out loud.
He looked at Li Ruochu, his eyes full of teasing, "Saying that Gu Qiuying is capable, does that mean that you are not capable?"
This woman's ability to understand really forced him to reconsider the invitation he had just made.
After hearing what Feng Yizhou said, Li Ruochu's face turned red. He smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
She lowered her head, picked up the chopsticks silently, and continued to eat the lunch in front of her.
Perhaps because her attention was diverted, she suddenly found that the food that was originally difficult to swallow did not seem so bad at this moment.
Seeing that Li Ruchu seemed to be in a better mood, Feng Yizhou raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
He stood up slowly and straightened his suit: "Secretary Li, don't worry, Gu Qiuying can't do this project!"
"Huh?" When Li Ruochu heard this, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of confusion.
She looked at Feng Yizhou's departing back, her brows slightly furrowed, and she wondered in her heart, what on earth does this man mean?
He was the one who decided on the project candidates, and now he suddenly said this. Has he changed his mind again?
When I returned to the company, the office was a busy scene and my colleagues were working in an orderly manner in their respective positions.
Li Ruochu looked at everything in front of him and felt a sense of loss.
She knew that what Feng Yizhou had just said was just to cheer herself up.
He must still be brooding over the last time I went to see him in a disheveled manner.
What a petty man!
