"What's got into the CEO? He's like a ruthless work machine!
He wants to work, and we office workers have to accompany him to work overtime!
Although the overtime pay is pretty good, it’s been almost a month! I can’t add any more overtime this time!”
“Overtime pay is good.
I heard that the president was indeed stimulated, otherwise he wouldn't have become a work machine."
"What? What melon? Tell me about it!"
When Fu Ziqi heard this, he took a few steps closer out of curiosity and pricked up his ears.
"I heard the CEO's fiancée ran away! It's been almost a month.
That is, after the CEO's fiancée ran off, he started to numb himself with work, as if he had been shocked."
"Is the president's fiancée the fair, tender, and pretty girl we met before?
Why would she run away? She has a boyfriend like the CEO who is rich, handsome, and has a great figure, and she still wants to run away?!
"Who knows? Anyway, the little girl is no longer with the president, so the president has become like this.
Maybe we have to wait until the president finds his fiancée and reconciles with him, or starts a new relationship before things can return to normal.
By then, we, the oxen and horses, won’t have to work so hard overtime.”
"How long do I have to wait? I really can't stand it anymore..."
Fu Ziqi walked away with a complicated expression.
Ying Xixi ran away?
Left Lin Huaye?
About a month ago...
That was the time when the mermaid Ying Yuanyuan appeared at the door of their research institute.
It seems that Ying Xixi had already left on the day Ying Yuanyuan appeared at the door of the institute and the day Lin Huaye hurried to the institute.
Is it such a coincidence?
Fu Ziqi went to the president's office thoughtfully.
Fu Ziqi looked at Lin Huaye, who had lost weight, looked more gloomy, and exuded a low pressure. He realized later that he hadn't seen him for at least a month.
That is, from the day Lin Huaiye came to the research institute until now.
"Director, we've made some progress in our research on mermaids. Here's the information. Take a look."
Fu Ziqi handled his official duties impartially, so he naturally addressed him in the official manner.
Lin Huaiye took the information and took a look at it. His voice was a little hoarse and nasal.
"Well, let's continue researching."
It was the first time that Fu Ziqi saw Lin Huaiye like this, and he suddenly became angry, not knowing where it came from.
"Lin Huaiye, are you so sad and upset just because Ying Xixi left?!
You weren’t like this before!”
Lin Huaye's expression, which was already not in a good mood, became even gloomier after hearing Fu Ziqi's words.
"You have no right to say such things to me. You can leave now."
Not only did Fu Ziqi not leave, he started talking as if he had opened a chatterbox.
"Aye, it's been almost a month since Ying Xixi left, right?
Even with your ability, you can't find any clues about her. Where do you think she went?
Also, don't you think Ying Xixi has some connection with Ying Yuanyuan, the mermaid?"
Fu Ziqi's last words made Lin Huaiye's eyelids jump, and he suddenly looked up at him.
"What do you know?!"
Fu Ziqi pulled over a chair and sat down, crossing his legs in a somewhat nonchalant manner.
“I don’t know anything, I just suspect.
The surname Ying is not common, but Ying Xixi and Ying Yuanyuan have the same surname and know each other.
Why did Ying Yuanyuan drug Ying Xixi shortly after they met?
Also, on the day Ying Xixi disappeared, Ying Yuanyuan was knocked unconscious and poisoned, then placed in a sack at the door of our institute.
Why did Ying Xixi leave you on that day?
Aye, don’t you think this is a bit of a coincidence?
I first met Ying Yuanyuan at the beach in the suburbs. She left with me with nothing.
Turns out she's a mermaid!
If you should...”
"etc!"
Lin Huaiye suddenly interrupted Fu Ziqi in a hurried tone.
"You said you met Ying Yuanyuan at the beach in the suburbs?!"
Fu Ziqi nodded, "Yes, it's the beach where you built the villa."
Lin Huaiye's breath was caught, and all the information in his mind connected together to form a guess.
He and Xixi met for the first time in his seaside villa.
At that time, Xixi's clothes were dirty and she also had nothing, but Xixi said that she only had the little pearl on her and she wanted to give it to him as a gift!
pearl......
The tears shed by mermaids will turn into pearls...
This sentence was written on the information sent by Fu Ziqi!
Xixi knows the mermaid Ying Yuanyuan, Xixi also has pearls, and Xixi also appeared at the seaside!
Then Xixi's identity is also obvious!
No wonder he couldn't find out about Xixi's past no matter how hard he investigated.
I'm afraid it's because Xixi has never been ashore in the past and has never lived in human society!
That's why there's not even a trace!
Lin Huaye's heart was pounding. He took a deep breath, took out a round and shiny pearl from the drawer and handed it to Fu Ziqi.
"Look at this pearl."
Fu Ziqi took it and looked at the pearl carefully, not understanding what was going on. His eyes widened as he looked at it.
“These are pearls formed from mermaid’s tears!
Ah Ye, you from... "
Fu Ziqi paused as if he had thought of something. "Is this what Ying Xixi left behind? It seems my guess is right."
Ah Ye, what are you going to do?"
Lin Huaiye stroked the remaining pearls and looked at Fu Ziqi with a warning in his eyes.
"I hope you can keep it a secret. It's enough for me to have Ying Yuanyuan as my mermaid in this world."
Fu Ziqi agreed immediately without thinking too much.
"I know, I'll keep it a secret."
Fu Ziqi's expression was calm, because he really intended to keep it a secret.
Lin Huaiye was very angry because he had previously stolen Lin Huaiye's girl, and Ying Yuanyuan, who was his girlfriend at the time, had drugged Ying Xixi. He said he would take action against the Fu family.
But in the end, Lin Huaye only casually took over the two small businesses of their Fu family and did not cause them any serious damage.
He knew that this was a warning from Lin Huaye because they were childhood friends.
If this time he really made public the fact that Ying Xixi was a mermaid.
Given Lin Huaiye's madness and Xixi's corresponding level of care.
Maybe their Fu family will not only face bankruptcy, but even the family will be broken up!
Lin Huaye is capable of doing such a thing.
He can't afford to offend.
"Keep watching over the research institute, and let me know if there's any news.
Is it possible for Ying Yuanyuan's voice to recover?
Lin Huaye thought for a moment and asked.
Fu Ziqi shook his head. "It's impossible. She's completely mute."
