After Erwa and his friends came back from their trip, everyone had gotten a bit darker in color.
Even though Xiaoduo and Yuxiang took appropriate sun protection measures, they still got a little tanned because of the rough and unpleasant conditions during their road trip.
Xiaoduo came to her parents' home to pick up her child, and Xingxing was reluctant to leave.
When Xiaoduo saw the funny photos her mother had taken of her son and Jin'er, she laughed so hard she wanted to print an extra copy to take home and keep.
Xiao Duo didn't want to go home while looking at the stars, so she left her son behind and went back with her husband.
Zhou Yunting was quite pleased that his son wasn't coming home, as this meant he could once again enjoy some time alone with his wife.
Yu Xiang's road trip was unpredictable, and she didn't return until several days after her annual leave.
Although she had called her superiors in advance to explain, some people still felt uncomfortable knowing this.
Even though Yu Xiang followed all the rules, her salary was deducted for the work she missed. Her boss knew her true background.
The entire company belongs to her in-laws. She was going on a low-key trip for a few days, and he dared not refuse. The HR department even helped her handle it.
After visiting many places, Yu Xiang brought back local specialties and souvenirs for everyone when they returned to the office.
She jokingly calls her tanned skin a healthy color.
Since Zhuo Changfeng no longer confronts her, their department is generally quite harmonious.
Lu Yanyan naturally knew that Yu Xiang had been away for several days, and even inquired about how long Yu Xiang had been on leave.
When Yu Xiang returned late, Lu Yanyan felt that it was because Yu Xiang had a close relationship with his superior and was being protected, which made her quite resentful.
She's now getting along really well with that Mr. Ding from the public relations department, and can't help but complain to him.
"Hey, marketing department, why are you complaining? Did you have a grudge before?" Young Master Ding is quite successful; his emotional intelligence is definitely not low.
Lu Yanyan didn't want to bring up her ex-husband, so she only vaguely said that she and Yu Xiang did not get along well in the past and that she didn't like Yu Xiang.
Young Master Ding smiled. "You want me to stand up for you?"
Lu Yanyan leaned closer and acted coquettishly. "She made me angry, can't you help me get revenge?"
Young Master Ding did not agree directly. "In official matters, unless she makes a mistake, don't expect me to target her. As for private matters, if there's an opportunity to help you get back at her, that's fine."
He won't get carried away by a woman's sweet talk.
People see that he comes from a well-off family and assume that he has no worries about food and clothing and doesn't have to worry about anything.
But with his outstanding older brother in the family, it seemed unlikely that he would inherit the family business.
He doesn't consider himself a particularly hard-working person, so he simply left home and found a job he liked. He doesn't know how far he can go in the future, but he won't easily ruin his future.
Lanxin is a great platform, and he hopes to climb higher in the future and see if he can meet more influential people.
It's a pity that the second young master is no longer with the company, otherwise he could have found a way to become friends with him.
If he could become friends with Lan Xin's second son, even his elder brother wouldn't dare to underestimate him.
As for privately standing up for his girlfriend, she's his woman after all, and he wouldn't be so petty.
Lu Yanyan wasn't particularly satisfied with what she heard, but she knew what her current husband had made up his mind, and she couldn't easily change it.
Therefore, she felt even more regretful that she broke up with her ex-boyfriend who had treated her very well.
Without anyone's help, even at the company, Lu Yanyan couldn't do anything to Yu Xiang.
But her mind had already gone astray.
So, he deliberately pretended to be on the phone with someone in the bathroom and talked about Yu Xiang's "gossip".
"Yes, yes, I'll tell you secretly, but don't tell anyone else. Yes, that girl in the marketing department who hasn't been here long has a special relationship with her boss."
"How is he unusual? I can't really say. Didn't you see how long he was absent before, but when he came back, he acted like nothing had happened and was directly appointed to a position?"
"Alas, how can people like us compare?"
After a while of ambiguity, Lu Yanyan pretended to finish her call and left.
As soon as she left, two people came out of the bathroom.
This kind of gossip spreads the fastest in the workplace.
When Lu Yanyan heard people talking about Yu Xiang from the marketing department, she also revealed a smug smile.
Damn woman, you dare offend me.
Upon hearing this rumor, the well-informed girl realized something was wrong and quickly went to inform Yu Xiang.
"How did such a thing suddenly come out? You should think of something to do right away."
Another married dinner companion couldn't help but start cursing.
"What kind of person is this, so despicable as to spread such rumors?"
This kind of thing is especially unfriendly to lesbians.
Regardless of whether it's true or not, or even if it's clarified later, some people will still think that the woman who was rumored to be involved is the one with the problem. Otherwise, why would they spread the rumors about her and not others? That's their opinion.
Yu Xiang went on blind dates before, and she dated Erwa for a long time without getting married. I wonder how long she suffered from rumors and gossip.
Now, when I hear these rumors, I'm actually the calmest.
Knowing that they were both worried about her, she felt grateful. "Thank you, but don't worry, the important thing is to find out where this rumor came from."
She found it strange too.
Zhuo Changfeng, upon hearing this rumor, immediately thought of Lu Yanyan.
He went to see his ex-girlfriend during his off-duty hours.
Taking advantage of his time off work, Zhuo Changfeng waited for his ex-girlfriend on her usual route home.
Upon seeing Zhuo Changfeng, Lu Yanyan thought he had regretted his decision and was secretly pleased, but she still maintained a composed demeanor.
What do you want from me?
"Lu Yanyan, did you deliberately spread the rumors about Yu Xiang in the company?"
Lu Yanyan's expression immediately darkened when she realized that the woman was the reason for her visit.
"I don't understand what you're saying."
“People from other departments don’t know people from our department, so they certainly wouldn’t spread such unfounded rumors. But you are, because of me before.” Zhuo Changfeng regretted it when he mentioned this.
“Team Leader Yu and our leader have a clean relationship. I’ve even seen them having meals together as a couple. Don’t assume that I’m the same just because you’ve done something wrong.”
Hearing her ex say that made Lu Yanyan even angrier. "What does this have to do with me? If you're so capable, go and shut everyone in the company up."
Yu Xiang used to avoid talking to Erwa about things at the company, but this time things have gotten a bit out of hand.
If she doesn't say anything, her husband will find out sooner or later through other means, so she might as well speak up first.
"You and your boss?" Erwa asked in surprise.
"Yes, that's how it's been passed down."
"What is all this nonsense? You, do you need to have an improper relationship with your boss to make things easier for yourself? If it's that complicated, you might as well just say you're Mom's daughter-in-law."
"Who says otherwise?" Yu Xiang said helplessly. This was truly an unexpected disaster.
"How about I pick you up from your company a few times?"
There should still be quite a few people in the company who remember me.
