Shen Jia suppressed the curse that was about to escape his lips, but the anger on his face just wouldn't dissipate.
"Gu Tingmo, how did you even get into my house?!"
Gu Tingmo squinted at her red lips as they opened and closed, thinking regretfully, "Why didn't she continue cursing?"
Upon hearing Shen Jia's words, Gu Tingmo pulled out one hand and waved a bunch of keys in front of her.
Shen Jia's face darkened.
There was a small yellow duck plush toy hanging on the keychain. Could it be her eldest son's?
She was only taken to the Gu family by Gu Tingmo a few days ago, and she betrayed him so quickly, even handing over the keys to this man?
“Shen Zhixia…”
Her face darkened, and she gritted her teeth as she called out her eldest son's name.
Gu Tingmo raised an eyebrow, his handsome face exuding a roguish charm; "Shen Jia, the little guy misses you a lot and wants me to take you to the Gu family home for a couple of days."
Shen Jiaxin felt a tightness in her chest. Xiaxia was her son, and he had never been away from her for more than three days in all these years. It would be a lie to say she didn't miss him, but she also didn't want Xiaxia to become a reason for Gu Tingmo to threaten her.
"I'm not going."
She turned her face to the side, and the emotions in her eyes were impossible to discern.
A hint of disbelief flashed in Gu Tingmo's eyes; "Shen Jia, are you even human? Your son misses you, and you don't even go to see him. Aren't you afraid of hurting him?"
Shen Jia showed no change in expression, but instead smiled at him with a slight upturn of her lips.
"If you're really worried that my eldest son will be sad because he can't see me, then you'd better send him back to me obediently."
Gu Tingmo had never met a woman as difficult as Shen Jiaxing before. As a mother, isn't her child the most important thing?
Why is Shen Jia so different? She hasn't seen her child for so long, does she really not miss him at all?
"Shen Jia, I really want to open your chest and see if your heart is made of stone."
Shen Jia raised an eyebrow and, taking advantage of the man's inattention, shoved him away.
"The person who can threaten me, Shen Jia, hasn't even been born yet. Gu Tingmo, let me tell you, if you forcibly lock Xia Xia up and prevent him from seeing me, you can forget about ever hearing him call you 'Dad' for the rest of your life."
She knows her own son well; the little guy she raised undoubtedly loves her the most.
Looking at her confident, bright, and exceptionally vibrant face, Gu Tingmo's heart skipped a beat for a moment.
But the thought of Shen Jia being unthreatened made his face darken.
Does he really have no way to deal with women?
Shen Jia ignored him and got up to go to her room to find her pajamas so she could take a shower.
She had just entered the room when she heard the door slam shut outside.
Shen Jia immediately lost her strength and leaned against the wall, letting out a heavy sigh of relief.
It's not that she doesn't miss Xiaxia, nor that she feels entitled just because Xiaxia loves her.
She knew that Gu Tingmo wouldn't hurt Xia Xia, and would even take good care of her.
Xia Xia really likes Gu Tingmo, that's for sure. Otherwise, she would have already tried to sneak back to find her. How could Gu Tingmo have the audacity to threaten her?
...
The next day.
Su Yaoyao ignored the online discussions and focused on preparing for negotiations with WED. However, she never expected that the severity of the situation would exceed everyone's expectations.
The Huo family convened a board meeting early in the morning.
Huo Xiting sat at the head of the conference table, his usually gentle and handsome face now appearing unusually cold, as if covered in millennia of snow.
"You convened this board meeting just to get Su Yaoyao to leave the Huo family, instead of thinking about how to solve the problem."
The meeting was quiet, and his cold tone was particularly clear.
Su Yaoyao paused as she was about to push the door open, and her steps also stopped.
“President Huo, we can’t just stand by and watch Huo Corporation fall into crisis because of Su Yaoyao. It’s not worth it.”
The speaker was Chairman An, a veteran member of the Huo family.
"Yes, Mr. Huo, at first you said this matter could be resolved, and we believed you and gave you time and Su Yaoyao a chance. But now? The entire Huo Group has suffered a sharp decline in reputation because of Su Yaoyao, and is being rejected and resisted by the general public. This morning alone, three companies have called to say they want to terminate their contracts, and the people who terminated their contracts with us before have immediately signed with Huangting."
Soon someone agreed with Chairman An and dropped an even more shocking bombshell.
Huo Xiting's hand under the table tightened slightly; "I said, once WED Group officially settles in Nancheng, Su Yaoyao will be of use."
Upon hearing this, Chairman An sneered, "I'm afraid that before that time comes, the Huo family will collapse because of Su Yaoyao. President Huo, this company doesn't just belong to you!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao understood the main purpose of today's meeting.
“Su Yaoyao must get out of the Huo family.”
As soon as Director An finished speaking, Su Yaoyao pushed open the door and entered.
Upon seeing Su Yaoyao, no one present was surprised except for Huo Xiting.
"Yaoyao, what brings you here?"
Su Yaoyao smiled, her face somewhat pale. "The HR department notified me to come to a meeting."
Huo Xiting's slightly cold gaze swept over Director An.
He's definitely up to something.
Chairman An was not afraid of Huo Xiting's gaze at all, and said coldly, "Su Yaoyao, you must have heard it outside just now. I hope you can take the initiative to apologize to Su Qingqing and write a resignation letter to leave Huo's Group."
No one spoke, but the cold expressions on their faces were enough to show that they all agreed with Chairman An's words. It was also possible that they had already discussed it in private, and that today's board meeting was just to force her to leave.
It would be very simple for these people to make her leave, but now they're going to all this trouble to make her leave on her own, all for the sake of that 30 million yuan penalty for breach of contract.
