Tang Jun walked over to me and comforted me softly, "It's over. Don't take it to heart."
Her words of comfort made my heart ache and my eyes slightly warm.
I nodded and apologized to her with guilt in my eyes: "I'm sorry, I didn't handle my personal affairs well and ruined your party."
"No." Tang Jun glanced at everyone and whispered in my ear, "It's just some small talk, don't take it seriously."
Tang Jun is gentle and generous, giving people a sunshine-like feeling. It is very comfortable to get along with her.
The cruise ship was about to dock, and everyone dispersed and returned to the cabin one after another.
I stood on the deck, holding onto the waist-high railing beside me, and thought of Yuan Yaxin's false accusation, which I found ridiculous.
If it was really me who made Yuan Yaxin fall into the sea, then given the height of the railing, I would not be able to push her down unless I lifted her legs and flipped her over.
But Lu Zhiyuan only believed Yuan Yaxin's words.
I originally wanted to stand on the deck to feel the breeze and calm myself down, but I didn't expect this to happen. Now standing on the deck, my mind is full of random thoughts.
I simply went back to the cabin and bumped into Yan Meng who was about to come out.
He looked at me with a smile, "I heard that you pushed Yuan Yaxin into the sea?"
My eyes darkened a little.
Yan Meng continued to tease, "I didn't expect you to be so strong despite looking so frail! You were actually able to push Yuan Yaxin, who's about the same height as you, into the sea?!"
I was filled with displeasure and looked up at Yan Meng: "Do you also believe what Yuan Yaxin said? Do you believe that I pushed her into the sea?"
I don’t know why I asked Yan Meng these questions. Maybe I really needed comfort.
If everyone else believed it, then it wouldn't be Lu Zhiyuan's problem.
Yan Meng chuckled. "Why would you believe her? The railing is so high, did you throw her into the sea? Unless she is the apple of my eye and I can trust her without a doubt, who would believe such a ridiculous explanation?"
My heart felt like it was stabbed with a knife, and the pain was so severe that I couldn't breathe.
Yes, only those who hold Yuan Yaxin dear to their hearts would believe her words without hesitation.
Lu Zhiyuan did not question it.
I lowered my head, twitched the corners of my mouth in self-mockery, and felt that I was really ridiculous.
After a while, the cruise ship docked smoothly and the guests got off the ship one after another.
I stood at the dock and watched Lu Zhiyuan personally help Yuan Yaxin into the car as it sped away.
I couldn't help but feel sour in my heart.
A concerned voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"It's already late at night. It's not safe for you to go back alone. Can I take you home?"
Unsafe?
I secretly sneered in my heart, letting Yan Meng know where I live would be unsafe.
I immediately declined Yan Meng's offer: "No, I've already troubled you enough with the party. I don't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings."
Yan Meng respected my idea and did not insist.
I hailed a taxi, got in and left.
The next day, as soon as I arrived at the company, Gu Rui came over to me with eager eyes and asked me questions.
"Boss Lan, you must have met Tang Jun last night, right? How was it? Was there any drama?"
Looking at Gu Rui's expectant eyes, I felt like a thorn in my back and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Looking back at the farce that happened last night, Tang Jun must have been deeply impressed by me.
It's just a bad impression.
Although Tang Jun comforted me on the surface, he was being respectful enough.
A great party almost ended in a fatality. Tang Jun must have had a terrible impression of me.
