Chapter 51 She Clearly Did It On Purpose
"As for President Jiang's sudden appearance, I don't know why, but he was just voting normally. If you have any objections to his vote, you can ask him directly instead of confronting me in public and deliberately saying something ambiguous."
Seeing me speaking so righteously, Xiaoyu's face instantly fell, and he looked unhappy.
"That's just your one-sided story. Who knows what's going on behind the scenes?"
Seeing that she still refused to give up, I didn't care about either of our faces and said something unpleasant.
"We are all colleagues. There is no need to complain about sour grapes. I was able to get first place because of my ability. If you are not satisfied, you can go and participate in the competition. You don't have to gossip about me in public. You have no moral integrity at all."
After Xiaoyu was retorted by me, her chest heaved violently. It was obvious that she was angry with me. She stopped arguing with me and turned around and left.
In order to improve my sales performance, I continued live streaming.
Because of the dance competition, my popularity has been rising, and the number of people in the live broadcast room has doubled.
Seeing my popularity rising, I enthusiastically interacted with netizens.
However, at this moment, the live broadcast was suddenly forced to end.
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised. When I looked up, I saw Lin Nan's angry face.
Before I could ask, Lin Nan threw a cell phone in front of me and said coldly, "Do you really want to cause trouble for the company?"
I didn't understand what she meant and subconsciously looked at my phone.
I just realized that I had inexplicably become a trending topic.
The hot search headlines criticized me for being arrogant.
My mind went blank for a moment, and I quickly clicked on the hot search to see the details.
I found several videos posted there, and the main content was all accusing me, saying that I deliberately bullied my senior Xiaoyu just because I won first place in the dance competition.
Just as I was checking, Lin Nan's dissatisfied voice sounded again. She looked at me coldly and asked, "Can you give me a satisfactory answer to this hot search?"
Looking at the comments from netizens in the comment section, I felt even gloomier.
I tried to stay calm as much as possible and explained to him quickly.
"That's not the case. It was Xiaoyu who deliberately provoked me and implied me in public. I just fought back."
Lin Nan didn't care about my answer. She said indifferently, "No matter what the reason is, this matter has affected the company now. You need to be responsible for it."
I suddenly felt aggrieved and argued with her unwillingly.
"Is Xiaoyu completely innocent in this matter? She clearly did it on purpose..."
Lin Nan didn't care what I said at all and warned me again, "Gu Mo, don't you know that your repeated troublemaking will only bring negative impact to the company?"
This one sentence just blocked me.
This is indeed the case.
But that was not my intention.
Seeing that I was silent, Lin Nan added, "This is the last time. If it happens again, you'll just get out."
Hearing this, I couldn't help feeling aggrieved.
I lowered my head and saw that Li Nan was wearing a ladies diamond ring on her finger.
Was it given by Jiang Yichen?
I felt a little chilled.
The thought of continuing to explain was immediately dispelled.
After she left, I got up and went to the tea room to calm down.
But what I didn’t expect was that the more I didn’t want to meet someone, the more likely they would appear.
When I saw Jiang Yichen, I turned around and was about to leave.
But he suddenly called me.
"Gu Mo."
I wanted to escape quickly, but before I took a few steps, he grabbed my wrist and dragged me into the tea room.
His sudden action caught me off guard for a moment, and I could only follow him passively.
He cornered me and made me unable to move.
I couldn't help but feel a little angry. I glared at him and said, "What are you doing? Let me go."
Jiang Yichen held me tighter, his hands unconsciously around my waist.
After a few seconds, he asked in a deep voice, "Why are you hiding from me?"
Looking at the close distance between me and Jiang Yichen, I didn’t know what emotion I should feel.
He seemed to care about me, but he gave Lin Nan a diamond ring.
Seeing that I didn't answer for a long time, Jiang Yichen hugged me tighter and repeated it again.
His voice brought me back to my senses, and without a second thought, I pushed him away with all my strength.
Perhaps he didn't react in time, Jiang Yichen bumped his head against the table. He frowned slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with my behavior.
But I didn't care and asked directly, "Don't you know why I ran?"
Now that he already has a fiancée, as his ex-wife, shouldn't I keep my distance from him?
Jiang Yichen's brows furrowed even more tightly, and his voice gradually became deeper.
"Gu Mo, just speak frankly."
I couldn't help but feel mocked, and I choked back, "Jiang Yichen, what are you pretending to be?"
Why didn't he seem so hypocritical before?
Seeing me retort, he approached me again, with a scrutiny in his eyes, staring at me and questioning me.
"What do you want to say?"
I couldn't help but feel a little angry, "You have Lin Nan, and now you're pestering me again, when did you become so fickle?"
I said this angrily, not noticing the change in his expression.
I don't want to be a part of his love game anymore, I just want to live my own life.
Hearing this, Jiang Yichen was silent for a few seconds, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
After a while, he looked me in the eye and suddenly said, "Gu Mo, why couldn't you see it when my heart and eyes were full of you before?"
He spoke calmly, but if you listened carefully, there seemed to be a hint of grievance rather than resentment.
My heart skipped a beat.
I know that he liked me very much in the past.
That's why I took it for granted that I did things that hurt him.
At this moment, my heart felt very heavy and I couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
If I could live my life over again, I would never abuse or insult him like I did before.
But……
I raised my head carefully and asked him, "If you could do it all over again, would you still choose to marry me?"
After saying that, I immediately regretted it.
Asking these questions now would only be asking for trouble.
But I still want to hear the answer from him.
Jiang Yichen paused for a few seconds, then laughed sarcastically and asked, "Gu Mo, do you think I will seek hardship?"
I lowered my head instantly. I should have guessed the answer long ago.
After saying that, Jiang Yichen didn't even look at me and just turned and left.
Watching him leave decisively, I actually felt a little lost.
Yes, knowing that the Gu family will fail, why would they want to be with me?
I stood in the tea room for a long time, and only left when my emotions calmed down a little.
But as soon as I walked out of the tea room, I heard a piece of news that made my blood boil.
Xiaoyu happened to be talking to others at the stairs.
Her voice was very clear and full of sarcasm.
