Chapter 122 Li Ruochu resigns in Shenggu
Jiang Mu suddenly raised his head, his face full of disbelief, as if he was struck by a sudden bolt of lightning.
But he still pursed his lips and said nothing.
However, the subtle change in his expression did not escape Li Ruchu's sharp eyes.
Seeing Jiang Mu's surprise, which he tried hard to conceal, Li Ruochu already had some guesses in his mind.
"I understand!" Li Ruochu's voice was calm and firm.
Jiang Mu's face suddenly changed and he was secretly shocked. He clearly didn't say anything, so how could she know?
"What do you know!" he asked anxiously, his eyes full of confusion and vigilance.
"Is Feng Yizhou's injury this time related to Zhong Tingyan?" Li Ruochu asked directly, his eyes fixed on Jiang Mu's face.
The expression on Jiang Mu's face changed slightly again, and the stiffness at that moment could not be concealed.
Although he remained silent, Li Ruochu had already gotten the answer from his reaction.
She smiled faintly, with wisdom glittering in her eyes: "Well, I know it too!"
Jiang Mu stood up suddenly, a little excited, "Secretary Li, stop guessing, your guess is not right at all!"
He tried to deny it, but couldn't quite hide the panic in his voice.
"Then why are you panicking!" Li Ruochu's tone remained calm. In comparison, she seemed more steady and composed.
"I'm not panicked. Am I panicked? I'm not panicked at all." Jiang Mu was a little incoherent. He glanced at Nan Zhiyu who was sitting next to him, as if he wanted to get support from her to prove his calmness.
However, Nan Zhiyu lowered her head and did not dare to speak at all, because she had already seen the dense beads of sweat on Jiang Mu's forehead.
"One last question!" Li Ruochu paused and continued, "Does Feng Yizhou have another identity?"
This question was like a bombshell, causing Jiang Mu to stand up straight instantly.
There was no expression on his face, as if he was trying hard to think of how to respond.
After a long while, Jiang Mu's face suddenly changed. He pretended to be serious and said quickly, "You should read less novels. Mr. Feng is Mr. Feng!"
He tried to dodge the sensitive question in a light-hearted tone.
"Okay, I understand!" Li Ruochu nodded.
After asking the three questions, her eyes revealed a kind of confidence that she knew everything, as if she really knew something.
"Secretary Li, what do you know? I didn't say anything!" Jiang Mu asked anxiously, his heart full of confusion and worry.
"You don't have to say anything, I understand!" Li Ruochu smiled slightly, and there was a deep meaning in her eyes.
No wonder Shen Yubai and Chu Yanzhen both said that Feng Yizhou was in danger. It turned out that they could also guess something.
"Don't worry, I won't say anything, and I won't do anything to seek death." Li Ruochu said calmly.
There was a hint of fatigue and helplessness in her eyes.
Since Feng Yizhou doesn't want to say it, what would it matter even if she knew about it from Jiang Mu?
Feng Yizhou had his reasons, but perhaps he had not considered their future when he deceived them like this!
Thinking of this, Li Ruochu felt a slight sense of loss in his heart.
Therefore, she didn't dare to touch the defense line in her heart!
Jiang Mu looked at Li Ruochu with a questioning look on his face: "Secretary Li, what's wrong with you?"
He always felt that Li Ruochu was too calm, almost abnormally so.
"Jiang Mu, from now on just follow Zhizhi and call me Chuchu. I don't plan to be a secretary anymore!" Li Ruochu said with a smile, with a hint of determination in her tone.
"But, aren't you doing very well in Shenggu? I may travel abroad often in the future, so I feel more at ease having you, President Feng, in the company!" Jiang Mu explained.
Li Ruochu shook his head: "I've been a secretary for ten years, I'm tired, let's just give up!"
There was a hint of weariness in her voice, as if she had exhausted all her enthusiasm and energy in her ten years of secretarial career.
"Then what about Mr. Feng?" Jiang Mu asked. He was a little worried that Feng Yizhou would be unhappy about this.
"With such a big company, Mr. Feng, are you still worried about not being able to find a secretary?" Li Ruochu said lightly, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone.
"Chu Chu! The secretary position in the company is yours, and no one else can take it away!" At this time, Feng Yizhou walked out of the room.
Li Ruochu looked back and saw that Feng Yizhou had rested for a night, but his face was still pale.
A complex emotion surged in her heart.
"Why did you get up?" Li Ruochu walked over with a concerned look on her face, gently helped Feng Yizhou sit down, then carefully brought the cooked porridge and placed it in front of him, and asked softly, "How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
Feng Yizhou frowned slightly, looked at the porridge in front of him, and did not respond immediately.
He seemed to have something hidden in his mind. He hesitated for a moment before raising his head and asking, "Do you want to resign?"
There was a barely perceptible hint of nervousness and worry in his tone.
"Well, I'm tired after working for so long!" Li Ruochu responded calmly, glanced at Feng Yizhou, then lowered his head to continue eating, with a hint of fatigue in his tone, "I want to go out for a walk and change the environment."
Feng Yizhou was silent for a while, without saying much, and just nodded gently, "Well, it's okay to go out for a walk!"
His eyes were somewhat complicated, as if he was thinking about something.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense, with a faint sense of depression in the air.
Nan Zhiyu couldn't stand such a depressing atmosphere, so she ate something and found an excuse to run out.
Jiang Mu also left tactfully, leaving only Li Ruochu and Feng Yizhou in the living room.
Li Ruochu ate quietly at the dining table. After a while, she slowly raised her head and her eyes fell on Feng Yizhou. After hesitating for a moment, she called out softly, "Feng Yizhou!"
"Hmm?" Feng Yizhou looked up.
"You..." Li Ruochu originally wanted to ask Feng Yizhou if he was hiding something from him, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
She didn't know what identity she should have to ask this question, and she felt conflicted.
She hated her awkward personality and hated that she was always caught up in such tangled emotions.
Thinking of this, she shook her head and changed the subject, "Eat more!"
"Chu Chu, I know what you want to ask. Some things are not yet ready, so I can't tell you!" Feng Yizhou looked at Li Ruchu, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
He did have his own difficulties, and he didn't want Li Ruchu to worry.
"Well, I don't really want to know." A gloomy look flashed across Li Ruochu's face, and he looked a little lost.
Feng Yizhou didn't say anything, but there was a hint of helplessness on his face.
He looked at Li Ruochu, with a complex emotion welling up in his heart.
After dinner, Feng Yizhou went back upstairs.
Jiang Mu was already waiting upstairs with a folder in his hand. "Boss Feng, I did a simple investigation on Secretary Li's background, and it seems there is nothing wrong!"
Jiang Mu handed the folder to Feng Yizhou.
Feng Yizhou sat in the president's chair in the study, opened the folder, and carefully looked at the story of Li Ruochu from the time he was five years old to the orphanage.
The document stated that her parents died in an accident and her relatives were unwilling to adopt her, so they sent her to an orphanage.
However, Feng Yizhou always felt that things were not that simple.
Why would such a coincidence happen?
