Jiang Xiaoling glanced at Xu Yi, her meaning clear.
He probably knows about what happened between them!
Xu Yi took her hand: "I'll go with you."
"No need, he definitely doesn't want you to go. Don't worry, I know how to adapt to different situations."
After saying that, she smiled and gently removed his hand, then turned and left the office with a smile.
Jiang Xiaoling took a deep breath and knocked softly on the door. Xu Haicang inside told her to come in.
As soon as she entered, Xu Haicang gave her a cold look and threw a bunch of photos at her.
He roared in fury, "Look at the mess you've made!"
Jiang Xiaoling picked it up and looked closely; it turned out to be a photo of Xu Yi carrying her into the hotel last night.
She instinctively began to explain, "Actually, we..."
"You don't need to explain. Luckily, the person who took this photo is someone I know. I gave him some money and that's how we kept this quiet."
Jiang Xiaoling lowered her head in shame.
Xu Haicang, sitting on top, pointed at her and scolded, "Do you know that this will harm him? Not only will it harm him, but it may also damage the image of the entire Xu family! Why don't you consider the consequences of your actions?"
Consequences? She had considered them, which was why she had repeatedly refused Xu Yi. But Xu Yi's words yesterday had truly moved her, so she stopped worrying about the consequences.
“Mr. Xu, I think feelings and work can be separated. We both like each other, so why can't we be together? Can't you put aside your prejudice against me?”
"No!" He seemed quite angry, then added, "You'll never get a foothold in the Xu family!"
Jiang Xiaoling frowned: "Why are you so stubborn?"
With a "thud," he threw all the documents in front of him away.
She practically stood up and roared, "Listen up! As long as I'm alive, I will never allow you to be with Xu Yi! And don't even think about becoming a phoenix! My Xu family's daughter-in-law can only be Liu Yunqi!"
He roared it out as if he had used all his strength, and then sat down abruptly, his face twitching, looking extremely angry.
"I'll give you two choices: either get out of here and sever all ties with my son."
Jiang Xiaoling sneered and asked him sarcastically, "And the second one?"
"Resign yourself, and I will give you a dignified explanation so that you can leave here with dignity."
Given her character, how could Xu Haicang possibly let her continue to work here?
Being kicked out of the house? And then having people criticize her at will? She definitely doesn't want that, after all, who wants people gossiping about them?
Since there was no difference between the two choices, she decided not to say anything more to Xu Haicang and turned to leave.
As soon as he entered the room, Xu Yi noticed that her expression was off.
She rushed forward and asked anxiously, "What did he say to you?"
Jiang Xiaoling just kept her head down and didn't say anything, showing no reaction whatsoever; even her eyes were so empty.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Yi impulsively said angrily, "I'm going to find him!"
"That's fine then."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yi, who was about to take a step forward, stopped in his tracks.
He turned his head and looked at her in disbelief, his expression suddenly blank.
He asked slowly, "What did you say?"
Jiang Xiaoling looked up, her double eyelids very obvious. She repeated, "That's fine."
He turned his head and looked into Xu Yi's eyes: "I said, let's leave it at that."
That's it? It's over?
Xu Yi shook her shoulders and asked, "Are you kidding me? Didn't you just say this morning that you wouldn't push me away? Why did you change your mind? What did he say to you?"
