At noon, Guo An took out a jewelry box from his pocket, containing a gold bracelet he had bought online.
He put it on Lin Wei.
The bracelet wasn't expensive, but Guo An said he noticed Lin Wei's wrist was bare and lacked an ornament; what was valuable was the man's sentiment.
Lin Wei was touched again. She had met many men, but none of them were like Guo An. Guo An was good to her and never asked for anything in return.
The woman's eyes glistened with tears: "You noticed all of this," she said, nestled in his arms.
Guo An was still cuddling with the woman when his colleague called.
The man answered reluctantly.
On the other end of the line, a colleague's voice came urgently: "Guo An, did you have a shift last night?"
Upon hearing about work, Guo An immediately sat up. "No, what's wrong? Has something happened again?"
Lin Wei pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.
"Yes, one of our employees is missing. The dormitory for employees who live in the dormitory closes at 11 p.m. According to her other colleagues in the dormitory, she was in the dormitory at night, but she was gone when she woke up in the morning. She did not go to work in the morning."
Guo An recalled carefully that after the shift change last night, he definitely did not see anyone come out or go in.
"They're probably still at the company. Let's look for them. Maybe they're in a bad mood and have hidden somewhere away." There are hundreds of employees living in dormitories at Fu's company, and sometimes that happens—someone is in a bad mood and isn't in their dormitory.
The man hung up the phone. Lin Wei checked on the situation and thought to herself, "My employee is missing! It's like a godsend. I hope something happened to him."
Guo An rushed back to the company.
Fu Jingsheng was dealing with negative news in his office; the news of the missing employee hadn't reached him yet.
Although a press conference has been held and the test report has been made public, and those who spread rumors have been punished, the company's image has not been completely salvaged.
Someone online has started another controversy.
[The quality of Fu's clothes is fine, but why are we always being taken advantage of? It's like this all the time, so we don't feel safe buying things from them anymore. Besides, flies don't land on eggs without cracks.]
Surprisingly, most of the comments supported this view.
This is blatant victim-blaming.
Fu Jingsheng and several managers from the operations department discussed countermeasures.
Going online inevitably brings negative news, especially if you've always been offline and suddenly switch to online, becoming popular in such a short time. There will always be people who are jealous and will use Rong Bing to make trouble for themselves.
The operations manager proposed suspending the broadcast for a period of time.
Rong Yan saw the comments online while at home.
In the afternoon, she wrote an article about how the perpetrators became the victims, using her writer's pseudonym.
The young people's comments on the Fu incident indeed overshadowed other negative news about Fu.
Rong Yan is the author Qingnian, who has over four million readers, and every word she says carries significant weight.
But apart from writing books, she never paid attention to anything else.
Rong Yan addressed the issue directly, listing several examples and finally emphasizing its value. With millions of fans echoing her sentiments, it naturally overshadowed all the negative news about the Fu family.
Lin Wei was surprised that the young man stood up for the Fu family.
He Wei came over carrying his computer.
"Boss, look!"
Fu Jingsheng thought something had happened again, and he frowned: "Why are you in such a panic?"
“Young...young people have spoken up for us.” He Wei stammered with excitement.
"Who?" several people in the office asked at the same time.
"Young man?" Fu Jingsheng asked.
He Wei nodded firmly: "Yes, young man."
Fu Jingsheng took the computer; the screen was filled with news about the young people working for the Fu family.
The comments were all in favor of the young man and the Fu family.
If everyone felt wronged and sought revenge, wouldn't the world be in chaos? What makes us human is our self-control.
Yes, victim blaming, what kind of values are those? Someone was perfectly fine and was targeted, and you insist that they must have done something wrong, otherwise why would they be targeted? Don't you know that some people retaliate against others without any reason?
[If Rong Bing hadn't been forced, Rong Yan would have burned down the Fu family's house. Netizens remember how tragic Rong Yan's fate was back then.]
"Oh dear, why are we bringing up Madam as a comparison?" He Wei broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that Fu Jingsheng least wanted to recall how beautiful and terrible he was back then.
Yes, looking at it this way, Rong Yan is so admirable. She left quietly, and although she said she hated them, she never truly harmed the Fu family or any of them.
Where are those who promote victim blaming? Why isn't anyone mentioning Rong Yan?
Fu Jingsheng looked at it several times and finally recognized it as Qingnian's large account.
Why would a young man like Ke Qingnian help the Fu family?
The man was a little confused.
He called Rong Yan and asked her to watch the news.
Rong Yan pretended not to know what had happened, but after seeing herself on the trending topics, she deliberately asked, "Fu Jingsheng, not bad, even Qingnian is standing up for you."
"Don't you find it strange? This article mentions many details. How could Qingnian know them?" Fu Jingsheng wondered.
"That's a great writer. He can analyze a single sentence into an entire essay. What's so special about that? When are you coming home?" Rong Yan changed the subject.
“No overtime today, no need to suppress negative emotions, I can get home at six. Aren’t Xiao Lei and the others coming back yet? Should we go out and stay at a hotel?” Fu Jingsheng asked.
“Sure, let’s change the mood,” Rong Yan agreed.
The woman started looking for hotels online.
Lin Wei was scrolling through comments at home, watching as the Fu family's image was about to collapse, ruined by a young man. The woman was so angry that she threw down the cup in her hand.
She knew that the Fu family and Yunshang were currently vying for a contract. If she could find out the Fu family's bottom line and reveal it to Yunshang so that Yunshang could win the contract, the Fu family would definitely suffer a heavy blow.
She's going on a business trip tomorrow, accompanying a client on a trip to the south.
The plan has been suspended.
——
In the evening, after finishing his work, Fu Jingsheng navigated directly to the hotel that Rong Yan had booked.
The woman brought her laptop; she needed to reply to her fans' messages.
The hotel sits atop Sky City, over a hundred stories high, offering panoramic views of the entire city.
The afterglow of the setting sun spilled onto the ground, casting golden spots of light.
Rong Yan left a message at the front desk and let Fu Jingsheng register himself.
She sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, with a computer on the small tea table in front of her.
Fu Jingsheng brought up two cups of coffee from downstairs to refresh himself.
The elevator finally arrived at the 102nd floor, and the man found his room and swiped his card to enter.
He was momentarily lost in thought when he saw his wife bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Today, Rong Yan had her hair tied in a ponytail and was typing on the keyboard with her head down. When she heard the door open, she looked up slightly, her watery eyes meeting Fu Jingsheng's.
"You're here." Her voice was gentle, as if a force was pulling Fu Jingsheng toward her.
The man didn't even change his shoes before walking over.
His eyes were fixed on Rong Yan's face, and he automatically filtered out everything around him. He pinched her chin and kissed her.
With his other hand, he reached around her back and pulled the petite woman completely into his arms.
Their tongues intertwined.
A few soft moans escaped her lips.
