"What's the reason?"
"What other reason could there be?" Xi Yang was speechless. What's wrong with girls nowadays?
What kind of world is this?
"She admitted it?" Su Ruowan raised her eyebrows.
Xi Yang nodded. "Not only did she admit that she deliberately leaked Aunt Wu's privacy, she also admitted a lot of things that neither you nor I dared to think about."
"Is there any other inside story? Does she have a grudge against Aunt Wu?" Su Ruowan admired her courage to act and take responsibility, but she didn't understand why she did this?
What is the starting point?
She thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out what benefits she could gain by leaking the news that Aunt Wu had cancer.
"I have no grudge against Aunt Wu herself, but I have a grudge against her son."
“…”
Su Ruowan was confused. What was going on?
Fortunately, she has a good temper, and there is Xi Yang. Can't she just start from the beginning at once?
Do I have to let her squeeze the toothpaste bit by bit?
Su Ruowan sat down and said, "Xi Yang, start from the beginning."
"It's like this. When it was time to go to work today, Chen Meng didn't show up, and she didn't ask for leave. I called her to ask what was going on, but she got impatient and said she was quitting. She had sent me her resignation letter and asked me to check it and approve it as soon as possible."
"Then they hung up on me. I read the email, and the reason for her resignation was just four words: personal reasons. She had signed a formal employment contract, and I paid for her five social insurances. Even if she resigned, she still had to follow the procedures, right?"
"I called her again and asked her to come to the studio to go through the resignation process, but she refused to come, saying she didn't want any compensation and just wanted me to approve her application. I told her that she had violated the employment contract and I could sue her for compensation."
"She hung up on me again, and no matter how many times I called later, no one answered."
"I found the complex where she lived. I don't know if I was lucky or unlucky, but I saw her arguing with a man at the entrance of the complex. I went to try to stop them, but the security guard called the police, and they determined it was a fight, so we all went to the police station."
“Guess who I met at the police station?”
"Who is it?" Su Ruowan was listening attentively when Xi Yang suddenly kept her in suspense.
"Aunt Wu, the man who was fighting with Chen Meng is Aunt Wu's son. Chen Meng returned to China a year ago and was hired as an assistant in our studio six months ago. She has a high degree and speaks foreign languages. She's not from a medical background, so being an assistant is no problem for her."
"I did. This little girl is very scheming. She was abroad and was secretly supported by Aunt Wu's son to go to college. As soon as she graduated from college, Aunt Wu's son coaxed her back to China. After Chen Meng returned to China, she has been waiting for him to marry her."
"Before she could wait, she moved to Aunt Wu's neighborhood and kept an eye on her. It was Chen Meng who distributed our studio's flyers to the elderly in their neighborhood. Do you remember that?"
"Yeah." Su Ruowan nodded.
Xi Yang didn't need to explain the rest, Su Ruowan had guessed it.
Aunt Wu's daughter-in-law wants to divorce her son. It is not because Aunt Wu has cancer and her son wants to return to China to take care of her or take Aunt Wu abroad for treatment, which has caused marital conflicts.
They wanted a divorce because they discovered that Aunt Wu's son had betrayed their marriage.
"Ruowan, do you think Aunt Wu will withdraw the lawsuit? Chen Meng is no longer a member of our studio. If she sue us again, she won't be able to stand her ground," said Xi Yang.
"Her home is a mess right now, and she's probably not in the mood. My husband knows lawyer Mo Youwei, so I'll go ask him. It shouldn't have much to do with our studio. After all, this is a purely personal feud between the two of them."
"Our studio was just implicated."
"That's right." Xi Yang nodded. "I'll expedite Chen Meng's resignation process and suspend her social security."
"Um."
"Your Mr. Xie is really awesome. Do I have to call you Mrs. Xie from now on?"
"Mr. Yang, my husband's surname is Huo, so you have to call me Mrs. Huo." Su Ruowan corrected.
"Huh? Why is your surname Huo?" Xi Yang raised his eyebrows. He thought that Su Ruowan had waited for many years and finally achieved his goal.
"I have some gossip here too. My ex changed his mind and I married someone else. I have something else to do. I'll tell you my gossip in detail another day."
“…”
"Ruowan, if our studio doesn't have to go to court this time, then I'll find an opportunity to thank Mr. Huo. I'll treat you and your wife to dinner." Xi Yang chased after them.
He has always been very open-minded. Rather than listening to gossip, it is better to meet the gossip protagonist face to face.
"Okay, I see. I'll have to ask him about his time."
"OK."
After coming out of the studio, Su Ruowan asked Feng Yu to take her to Fushouju. On the way, they passed by a Cantonese restaurant. Su Ruowan packed a bowl of pigeon soup and a plate of pineapple sweet and sour pork as extra dishes for her grandma.
"Madam, will you accompany the old lady for dinner tonight? Should I go and pick up the boss later?" Feng Yu asked proactively.
Su Ruowan shook her head. "No need. This dish and soup are just for grandma. I'll see how much time I have tonight. If I have enough, I'll buy some food and cook it. If that's not possible, we can just go out for a meal."
"yes."
Feng Yu stopped talking and silently quickened his pace, sending Su Ruowan to Fushouju safely.
Su Ruowan brought a dish and a soup to Furongyuan where the old lady lived. Feng Yu parked the car in the parking lot of the nursing home, then got out and called Huo Shengnian to report on his work.
When Su Ruowan arrived, the old lady was pacing in the house. She had just received the news that Grandma Xie had secretly escaped from under the noses of the Xie family.
But the old guy did not return to Fushouju.
This person has been missing for several hours. The old woman hasn't had an attack for a long time, but if she has an attack, she will be confused and can't find her way home or back to Fushouju.
So, as an elderly person living alone, is she just going to wander around like this?
Ever since the old lady learned that Grandma Xie was missing, her heart has been in a knot, and she has been engaged in a fierce ideological struggle in her mind.
Should she tell Wanwan about this?
Should I say it or not?
Just when she was hesitating, Su Ruowan walked in with brisk steps and called her, "Grandma, Wanwan is here to see you."
“…”
With a snap, the glass teacup in the old lady's hand fell to the ground.
It’s over——
The old lady looked down at the broken glass on the ground, just like her heart, which was shattered into pieces.
Wanwan must have known about it, so she came to demand an explanation.
She missed the best opportunity to confess...
