His temptation made me feel that all my anxieties today were a joke.
I loosened my grip on the bottle of wine, and my uneasy heart finally settled down. I even felt a little empty.
Even though I have explained to him countless times that there is really nothing between Yan Meng and me, he is still testing my feelings towards Yan Meng.
I took a deep breath and said calmly, "Lu Zhiyuan, I'm telling you one last time, there has never been any relationship between Yan Meng and me."
"My relationship with Yan Meng started out as a collaboration. Later, it was because he was an old friend of my grandparents. That's all."
I remained calm and made my stance clear to him: "If he is truly the murderer behind your father's death, you don't need to do anything. The law will not forgive him. He deserves it."
Lu Zhiyuan's eyes flickered, and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
I stood up, placed the bottle back in front of him, and said in a cold voice, "If you want to vent, drink as much as you want. There's no need to resort to such self-torture. Between the two of you, I only stand for justice."
After I finished speaking, I turned around and walked out of the private room, no longer having the worry and heartache I had when I first entered.
He is clearly in a clear head and there is no need for me to worry.
The only thing he has to do now is to find out the truth about the manuscript incident.
Either clear Lu Jing's name, or give Lou Xiaoyun a belated explanation.
February came in a blink of an eye, and with Valentine's Day approaching, many employees of Huake were secretly discussing the company's arrangements.
Huake is a company with an open corporate culture. In the past, it held some lively activities every Valentine's Day to enhance the sense of integration of new and old employees.
This year's Valentine's Day coincides with the opening of a high-tech real estate project, which is a good opportunity for publicity. We can promote it by holding a social gathering.
We had a brief discussion at the meeting and decided on the general direction.
After the meeting, I called Gu Rui to my office.
I handed him a list and said, "Please pay more attention to the Valentine's Day social. I will give you full responsibility for this event."
"Me?" Gu Rui was a little surprised. He glanced at the information and scratched his head in distress. "I'm a grown man, I really don't understand romance. I'm afraid of messing it up."
"It's okay, I believe you." I gave Gu Rui a look, which made Gu Rui flattered.
He reluctantly accepted the activity and walked out the door while looking at the information.
After taking two steps, he suddenly saw something and turned to ask for my opinion: "We need to prepare gifts for Valentine's Day, right? What gifts should we give everyone?"
There was a clear stupidity in his inquiring eyes.
How did he win over Chen Ting when he even asked me what gift to prepare for Valentine's Day?
I looked at him speechlessly and teased him deliberately: "If you can't make up your mind, you can ask Chen Ting for any ideas."
As soon as the name "Chen Ting" was mentioned, Gu Rui's face immediately turned red.
He looked guilty, and he hesitantly explained to me, "Sister Lan, I didn't mean to hide it from you. She and I haven't gotten together yet. She didn't agree to it..."
His incoherent speech was somewhat endearing, so I smiled and reassured him, "Why are you panicking? I'm not blaming you, and Huake doesn't object to office romances."
Gu Rui scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "We have just been in contact more frequently at work recently. I don't know what she is thinking yet."
Gu Rui is very smart at work, but when it comes to talking about feelings, he becomes silly.
