Chapter 51 I Want to Quit
After Lin Rushang returned, she treated the wound on her forehead. Just as she was about to clean up, Li Wenyuan came back.
He put the keys on the table, took off his suit jacket, and gestured to Lin Rushang.
"Why are you back so early?"
Lin Rushuang simply replied, "Well, I'll go over there."
Li Wenyuan went to the refrigerator and took out a bottle of water, then walked up to Lin Rushang. Noticing that she had a bandage on her forehead, a look of worry immediately appeared on his face.
He half-knelt on the ground and went over to check.
"How did you get hurt?"
Lin Rushang saw the worry in Li Wenyuan's eyes and couldn't help but feel dazed.
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether he was really worried about her or just pretending.
If it's fake, then Li Wenyuan's acting skills are really getting better and better.
"Nothing, just a fall."
She felt that it was meaningless to tell Li Wenyuan that Lin Yuxi and Ding Xuezhen were jointly bullying her.
He was no longer the person who could hold an umbrella for her from behind.
Li Wenyuan's eyebrows were almost twisted into a "川" shape.
"How could you be so careless? Where did you fall? Did your sister or stepmother push you?"
Lin Rushuang didn't want to say anything at first, but Li Wenyuan insisted on getting to the bottom of it, so she simply didn't hide it.
"Even if they pushed me, what can you do? Are you going to stand up for me?"
Xie Hongzu insulted and bullied her like that, but Li Wenyuan never helped her get justice.
But He Tingchen gave her a different feeling. Putting aside other things, she felt that He Tingchen was the kind of person who would be bullied by anyone.
No matter who is the king or the boss, He Tingchen will never let the other party go.
Li Wenyuan is different. He wants to take everything into consideration and keep the overall situation in mind, and he can even sacrifice her, who is no longer important, for this.
After all, if he had a conflict with Xie Hongzu, he would most likely lose his position in Lide.
Li Wenyuan noticed Lin Rushang's displeasure, and he patiently pressed her shoulder to explain.
"You know, if I stand up for you and ask your sister and stepmother to hold you accountable, that's fine, but it's bound to make your relationship worse. Is that okay?"
Every word Li Wenyuan said seemed to be for Lin Rushuang's benefit.
Lin Rushang lowered her eyelids slightly to hide the emotions in her eyes, and her tone was calm.
"I was joking. It has nothing to do with them."
Li Wenyuan held Lin Rushuang's slightly cold hand and said, "I will definitely go with you next time. With me here, no one will dare to bully you again."
"Yeah." Lin Rushuang didn't want to listen to Li Wenyuan's hypocritical talk anymore, so she changed the subject. "What were you busy with today? Why do you smell like the sea?"
Li Wenyuan lifted his sleeve and brought it to his nose to smell.
"Really? I guess I picked it up today when I was passing by and meeting with a partner."
Lin Rushuang smiled but said nothing.
Li Wenyuan stood up at this time: "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes so that you won't be uncomfortable with the smell."
Lin Rushang saw him stand up and go back to the room, and the coldness in her eyes slowly emerged.
In fact, she didn't smell any fishy smell on Li Wenyuan at all, but rather a scent of Jiang Yuyan's perfume.
Lin Rushuang originally went back to her room to get her computer, but she saw Li Wenyuan's cell phone on the bedside table. She no longer had any desire to look at Li Wenyuan's cell phone.
But just then the phone flashed.
He took a look and saw that it was a WeChat message from Jiang Yuyan.
"Ah Yuan, if I accompany you to the banquet tomorrow, will Sister Rushuang be unhappy? After all, she is your wife."
Lin Rushang's breath was held. It turned out that Li Wenyuan had no intention of taking her with him. No wonder he hadn't even mentioned it just now.
He really couldn't wait to bring Jiang Yuyan with him to make himself more familiar to the public, so as to avoid being criticized if Jiang Yuyan replaced him in the future.
Li Wenyuan came out of the bathroom at this time and saw Lin Rushang standing next to the bedside table with his mobile phone in her hand. The man frowned and almost in an instant he quickly walked up to Lin Rushang and took the phone from her hand.
"Why are you checking other people's phones now?"
Lin Rushang stared at the phone that was still frozen in mid-air. She hadn't reacted yet and was startled by Li Wenyuan.
"I just saw your phone was on and wanted to help you check if there was any important news. Why are you reacting so strongly?"
After hearing this, Li Wenyuan realized that he had indeed overreacted.
He calmed down a bit.
"Nothing, there's just been a lot of stuff going on at the company lately, and I don't want to bother you too."
Li Wenyuan picked up his phone and took a look at the message.
"By the way, there's a banquet tomorrow. I see you have a forehead injury, so just rest at home. Just let Jiang Yuyan come with me, and let her see the world. If she puts in more effort at work, you can relax a little more."
Lin Rushuang didn't argue with him. After all, Li Wenyuan had already made plans, right?
She meekly agreed.
"Um."
Li Wenyuan thought that he had been a little too emotional towards Lin Rushang just now. He walked over and hugged Lin Rushang, patting her back with his warm palms.
He made gestures to Lin Rushuang to comfort her.
"Rushuang, I'm sorry. I was too emotional just now and scared you. As you know, the Oasis project has been causing unrest throughout the company lately."
Lin Rushuang had no intention of making trouble with him, and her cold and delicate facial features were calm.
"It doesn't matter, let Miss Jiang go."
Li Wenyuan rubbed Lin Rushang's head with a relaxed look.
"Have a good rest at home these few days."
"By the way, I want to resign and rest at home for a while, is that okay?"
Lin Rushuang suddenly offered to resign because she wanted to test Li Wenyuan's attitude to avoid any trouble later.
Upon hearing this, Li Wenyuan's expression, which had just improved, immediately darkened again, and his mood was like a roller coaster.
"You want to resign? If you want to rest, I can let you come back and have a good rest, but there is absolutely no need for you to resign."
"It's okay. We have Miss Jiang in the company now. She will be a great assistant to you, just like I was back then."
Lin Rushang still remembers that she studied hard, worked overtime, and looked for projects everywhere, all for the purpose of becoming Li Wenyuan's right-hand man one day.
But now, Li Wenyuan obviously no longer needs him.
Li Wenyuan rubbed his eyebrows, obviously not wanting to agree for the time being.
After a moment, he spoke again.
"How about this, I'll think about it first. If I can let you leave after discussing it with the company's shareholders, then you can rest at home and leave the rest to me."
The tone of Li Wenyuan's voice seemed to let her enjoy a peaceful life at home.
Moreover, whether she can resign or not is not something she can control. She must discuss it with the company's shareholders before she can leave.
In fact, she didn't care. She would leave regardless of whether Li Wenyuan agreed to resign or not. It was just that she could get the money she deserved by resigning normally.
"Okay, tomorrow, give me news tomorrow night."
