And so, the female protagonist returned to her country.
After returning, the female lead inquired about the male lead's recent situation.
Upon learning that he was already married, she frowned slightly, but quickly recovered.
Subsequently, he applied for the position of secretary to the president of Han's Group.
"President, this is the new secretary." The head of the secretarial office brought the newly recruited secretary to the male protagonist for his inspection.
Upon hearing this, the male protagonist looked up from the document and a look of astonishment flashed across his face when he saw the very familiar face in front of him.
"You can go now," the male protagonist instructed the head of the secretary's office beside him.
"Yes, boss." The head of the secretary's office realized that the two knew each other from the series of changes in the male protagonist's expression, so he tactfully left, not forgetting to close the door behind him.
"It's you? What are you doing at the Han family's?"
"You were so heartless back then, why are you showing up again now!" The male lead said, looking at the female lead with a cold expression.
“Chengxuan, I… I had my reasons back then.”
“I didn’t mean to accept that check. It’s just that I was sick and didn’t want to upset you, so I pretended to be vain and accepted the check.”
"Now that I'm better, I'm coming to see you right away."
"Chengxuan, please forgive me," the female lead pleaded, her face streaked with tears.
"Sick? What kind of illness?" The male protagonist's face showed surprise upon hearing this, followed by some worry.
After all, they had been partners for several years, so naturally there were still feelings in their hearts.
"I have problems with my spleen and lungs."
"How are you now? Are you alright?" the male protagonist asked again.
"Okay, that's why I came to find you."
After hearing the female lead say that she was alright, the male lead breathed a sigh of relief and then returned to his usual demeanor.
"Since that's the case, let's live our lives well."
“As for a secretary, you don’t quite fit the bill,” the male lead said, looking at the female lead.
His face showed no emotion whatsoever.
The female lead looked surprised upon hearing this. Just moments ago, Han Chengxuan had acted as if he cared about her, but she never expected him to be so heartless in the blink of an eye.
"Chengxuan, I can do it."
"I was hired through a recruitment process, and I'm capable of doing a good job as a secretary," the female lead said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, the male protagonist frowned slightly.
However, when I saw the female lead looking like she was about to cry, I felt a little soft-hearted.
"In that case, you may stay."
"Thank you, Chengxuan," the female lead said, her tears turning into a smile.
And so, the female protagonist entered the Han family.
When the female lead was working at the Han family, she would sometimes seduce the male lead.
However, because of Wang Yuan's presence, the male lead was somewhat uncomfortable with the female lead's touch.
However, upon seeing the female lead, one might also experience some tactile sensation.
Just when the female lead thought that with her unremitting efforts, she would get closer to the male lead again, Wang Yuanmeng's arrival shattered her beautiful dream.
Although I knew Han Chengxuan was already married, I still felt a pang of jealousy when I saw Wang Yuanmeng.
The boy who once only had her in his heart now belongs to someone else.
When Wang Yuanmeng saw the female lead in the male lead's office, she wasn't surprised, as she already knew about it before he arrived.
However, he didn't pay much attention to her.
"Chengxuan, it's noon. I've come to find you to have lunch," Wang Yuanmeng said with a slow smile as she approached the male lead.
Upon hearing this, the male protagonist showed a hint of displeasure, but considering what he would face when he returned home if he refused, he reluctantly agreed.
"Let's go." He put the documents on the table, stood up, and walked towards the door.
"Go to work," he said to the female lead as he approached her.
Then, he followed Wang Yuanmeng and walked towards the door.
The female protagonist watched the two people leave, a look of displeasure flashing across her face.
Unexpectedly, Han Chengxuan went along with the wife he married. This is not a good sign.
Her goal will not be easy to achieve.
On the other side, after the two got into the car, Wang Yuanmeng teased the male lead.
"You're so good, I'll reward you when we get back."
"Stop fooling around." Upon hearing this, the male protagonist blushed slightly, then shouted sternly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuanmeng only smiled twice.
Wang Yuanmeng had no intention of asking Han Chengxuan about the female lead.
Asking won't make any difference.
Besides, he's still here.
After having lunch with the male lead, Wang Yuanmeng went to see a movie together.
After that, the male protagonist returned to the company.
After returning to the company, he threw himself into his work and paid no attention to the female lead.
After the female lead spun around in front of the male lead a few times without attracting his attention, she felt somewhat resentful.
However, considering that she was still at the company, she did not express herself too directly.
When she was leaving get off work, the female lead was thinking of asking the male lead out.
"Chengxuan, a new restaurant has opened. Let's go try it," the female lead said to the male lead with a smile and a hint of anticipation on her face.
"No need, I have other things to do." After hearing the female lead's words, the male lead remembered that Wang Yuanmeng had told him to go back early when she left, so he declined the female lead's invitation.
"Chengxuan, we haven't had a meal together in so long, is it really not okay?"
"Let's do it another day." Upon hearing this, the male protagonist hesitated for a moment, but ultimately declined.
"Alright then." The female lead looked hurt.
Seeing this, the male protagonist raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. If he was quick, he could still make it.
"Let's go." A hint of joy flashed across the female lead's face upon hearing this.
The two then left.
During the meal, the female lead repeatedly brought up past events in an attempt to rekindle the male lead's feelings.
As the female lead recounted her story, the male lead's expression softened considerably, and a hint of nostalgia flickered in his eyes.
However, I then realized that this was not the time.
After taking a few bites, the male protagonist said goodbye.
If I don't go back soon, Wang Yuanmeng will probably cause trouble again.
After seeing the male lead's departing figure, a look of displeasure flashed across the female lead's face.
He was somewhat wary of the wife Han Chengxuan had married.
They initially thought it was just a business marriage, but after seeing Han Chengxuan's condition, they realized it was more than that.
