Chapter 62: Making things difficult for her
It was already late autumn, and the sun was shining through the car window.
Shen Qinghuan was sitting next to the car door, her little face facing the warm sun, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. She felt that every pore in her body was relaxed, and even the gloom from seeing Li Mingzhu in the company was dispelled.
"Shen Qinghuan, why didn't you make the coffee this morning?"
The man's cold and distant voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Shen Qinghuan's comfortable thoughts.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Yu beside her, her soft red lips curled up slightly. She said, "She seemed very anxious to see you at the time. You know, I've always been kind-hearted. I couldn't bear to see a beautiful woman sad, so I gave her a chance."
"What? Is the coffee she makes not tasty? Or... you don't want her to dare to do this kind of waitressing job?"
"Actually, she just serves you, and she gets paid for it!"
Shen Qinghuan looked at him and smiled, her eyebrows curved, and her almond-shaped eyes were as bright as the waves.
Jiang Yu choked and couldn't utter a word for a long time. His brows were tightly furrowed, and a trace of anger inexplicably surged in his heart.
Seeing that he was sulking and not saying anything, Shen Qinghuan secretly rolled her eyes, but the smile on her face was still gentle, and the dimples at the corners of her mouth were still faint, as if she really didn't care about Li Mingzhu's appearance and didn't take it to heart.
"Okay! It's working hours now. I shouldn't talk about personal matters. This is my fault. I apologize to you."
Admit your mistakes readily and reflect on your own errors.
Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at her coldly, "Didn't you say last time that you wouldn't let me be with her? What? You changed your mind so quickly? Shen Qinghuan, your mind changes too quickly!"
Uh, Shen Qinghuan was stunned, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly.
She subconsciously wanted to mock him, but when she remembered that she still had something to ask of him, she immediately put on a flattering smile on her face, "If you don't like me being like this, then I'll change! I'll go and make things difficult for Miss Li and make her work overtime tonight."
Jiang Yu: "...Shen Qinghuan!"
Shen Qinghuan curled her lips helplessly, then sighed heavily and said, "See! I knew you would feel sorry for her."
After a pause, she suppressed all her emotions and added seriously, "Jiang Yu, don't let Grandpa and Grandma know that she works at Jiang's. Grandpa's health is already very poor, and he can't stand the stimulation right now."
Jiang Yu turned his head and looked at Shen Qinghuan coldly, "Do you think I was the one who brought her to work at Jiang Corporation?"
"What do you mean?" Shen Qinghuan stared at him without blinking, her eyes filled with suspicion. "Didn't you let her come to work at Jiang's? You just fired Cao Xinyi yesterday afternoon, and today you let Li Mingzhu come to work, but you said it wasn't your idea?! Jiang Yu, do you think I'm a three-year-old child who's so easy to fool?"
Jiang Yu sneered disdainfully and said, "What good will it do me if I fool you?"
Shen Qinghuan scoffed, "How would I know what good it would do you! I'm not a worm in your stomach!"
Jiang Yu opened his mouth slightly and decided not to say another word.
Shen Qinghuan also fell silent and continued to look out the car window.
But when she thought about having to face the fake Li Mingzhu every day for a long time from now on, the depression in her heart could not be dispelled! It even made her chest feel stuffy.
However, she probably also figured out one thing: Li Mingzhu was not brought to work at Jiang's by Jiang Yu.
If it wasn't Jiang Yu, then it could only be Jiang Lan Ya, and she had enough reasons and motivations.
Jiang Lan Ya has always disliked her, both before and now. She suddenly brought Li Ming Zhu into Jiang Corporation, simply to make things difficult for her, and by the way, to allow Li Ming Zhu to get the upper hand.
Thinking of this, Shen Qinghuan secretly glanced at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu leaned against the back of the chair with his eyes closed. There was a very obvious blue color on his eyelids, which was obviously caused by poor sleep.
Did he stay up late last night?
Before she could think further, the cell phone in her bag suddenly rang. Someone sent her a message.
Shen Qinghuan picked up the phone and took a look.
Li Meng: [This thing is yours! Photo.ipg]
Looking at the photo that appeared in the dialog box, Shen Qinghuan put her hand on her forehead and belatedly remembered that when she left 1900 last night, she actually left the golden rose that Li Bin gave her in the private room.
Before she could reply, another message popped up in the chat box: [Huanhuan, tell me the truth, who gave you this shiny yellow thing? You have quite a discerning eye, doesn't it suit your taste? Smirk.ipg]
Shen Qinghuan: [A supplier gave it to me.]
Li Meng: [So generous!]
Shen Qinghuan: [Before meeting you last night, he asked me out for dinner. I wanted to return it to him, but he refused. I even told him I was married, but he probably didn't believe it.]
Li Meng: [Wouldn't that be a hot potato?]
Shen Qinghuan: [It's quite hot.]
Shen Qinghuan: [Meng, let me ask you something. You were the one who sent me home last night, right?]
She clicked send and stared at the phone screen intently, not wanting to blink, for fear of missing the message sent by Li Meng.
Soon, Li Meng's message came: [Did Jiang Yu tell you nothing? ]
Shen Qinghuan was stunned. She subconsciously looked up at Jiang Yu, a flicker of suspicion in her eyes. Did he need to tell her something? Was he the one who picked her up last night? Uh, shouldn't he be with Li Mingzhu?
Perhaps because Shen Qinghuan hadn't responded for a long time, Li Meng's message came again, "He was the one who carried you away."
Shen Qinghuan: [I understand. That’s it for now. I’ll get busy.]
After finishing the chat with Li Meng, Shen Qinghuan quickly put the phone back into her bag, and then held the bag tightly in her arms, fearing that Li Meng would say something that would embarrass her. After all, she knew very well that her drinking behavior was just so-so, and it was very likely that she would say something outrageous.
Thinking this in her heart, she secretly glanced at Jiang Yu again.
When Jiang Yu saw her last night, she should have fallen asleep, so she should not have said anything?
Perhaps Shen Qinghuan's gaze was too intense, Jiang Yu's eyelids moved slightly, his thin lips curled slightly, and his cold voice fell: "Shen Qinghuan, even if you continue to look at me like this, it won't change the fact that you have grown in size."
“…”
He was saying that she had gained weight, which was an indirect admission that he was the one who brought her home from 1900 last night.
Shen Qinghuan suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart, and her thoughts unconsciously drifted into memories. He used to always say that she was too thin, and whenever there was something delicious, he would try to save some for her. Later, when he went abroad to study, he would bring her her favorite chocolate every Chinese New Year when he came back.
They were once very close, so since when did they become increasingly distant?
