Chapter 152: The gap deepens
Three days later.
Chen Liya finally came to work.
"Liya, you are finally here. I missed you so much." Yu Nian happened to meet Chen Liya downstairs in the company and pulled her upstairs.
Chen Liya said lightly, "Yeah."
"The wound on your face is almost healed, right?" Yu Nian asked with concern.
Chen Liya wore a light blue mask to cover the scars on her face.
"It's almost healed." Chen Liya responded. She didn't want to mention the injury on her face.
After clocking in for work.
Chen Liya was very silent and focused on her work.
Yu Nian sat at his workstation, glanced at her, and felt a little uncomfortable.
Leah must be very concerned about the scars on her face, right?
What woman doesn’t love beauty?
Yu Nian sent a text message to Ji Feizhi, asking, "Any news on the scar-removing ointment I asked you to find?"
A minute later, the other party replied, "I'll be there within three days."
After receiving the news, Yu Nian was delighted.
Very good!
She immediately turned around and happily shared the good news, "Liya, Ji Feizhi said there's a special scar removal medicine that will be arriving soon. The scars on your face will definitely be completely healed!"
"Really? Thank you Nian Nian." Chen Liya turned her head, forced a smile on her lips, and there was silence in her eyes.
The jealousy and resentment in my heart kept flowing like a spring.
Why?!
Why should I rely on your pity and charity when my appearance is ruined?!
Isn't this all caused by you!?
Yu Nian!
Why does Ji always fall for you?!
You get all the good things, but you are left with scars forever.
No matter how good the medicine is, this scar will always be there!
Seeing that she didn't want to talk more, Yu Nian stopped talking.
After all, no one wants to keep mentioning the scar on their face.
She can understand.
"Niannian, I brought you a cup of coffee to wake you up!" A colleague smiled enthusiastically and placed the coffee on Yu Nian's desk.
Yu Nian didn't want it, but it was hard to refuse, "Thank you."
"Niannian, I've discovered a new treasure-trove pastry shop. Their peach cakes are delicious. You should try them. I waited in line for more than an hour to buy them yesterday!" Another person came to show his courtesy.
"Niannian, try this!"
“And this!”
“Taste my…”
Yu Nian looked at the snacks piled on his desk and felt overwhelmed.
"Thanks......"
She didn't want any of these things.
But I can't refuse other people's kindness.
Someone will gossip about her being aloof.
So, this is why she wants to quit immediately!
These three days have been very difficult.
She complained to Ji Feizhi, "If I had known earlier, I should have resigned immediately."
She couldn't stand this kind of differential treatment, even if she was the one being treated preferentially.
Ji Feizhi suggested, "How about moving into my office?"
Yu Nian refused sternly.
Are you kidding? How can I still work like that?!
That's clearly walking into a wolf's den!
She might as well be suffering in the design department.
Chen Liya stared intently at the computer in front of her, pretending to be calm as she handled the work at hand.
He ignored the group of people around him who were trying to please him.
Yu Nian was a little embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Chen Liya suddenly stood up.
Yu Nian also wanted to get up, "Me too..."
Chen Liya walked away without even looking back.
Yu Nian felt a little stuffy in his chest. What happened to Liya?
At the bathroom door.
Just as Chen Liya was about to enter, she heard voices of conversation from inside.
She paused.
"Chen Liya is also pitiful. She is disfigured. I heard that the scar on her face is particularly hideous and terrifying."
"That's for sure, otherwise she wouldn't wear a mask."
"It is said that the kidnappers' target was Yu Nian, and she was just implicated."
"Yeah, that's even more pitiful. She had such a good relationship with Yu Nian, but she didn't get a promotion or a raise. She didn't get any benefits at all, and she was even kidnapped. Do you think Chen Liya was raped by the kidnappers? I saw that she looked so gloomy..."
"Let's stay away from Yu Nian. Look at those who were close to her, few of them had a good ending. Zheng Na and the others were all fired by the Ji family. I heard that they suffered quite a miserable fate."
Chen Liya's eyes were cold as she walked straight inside.
The two people who were talking changed their expressions and quickly fell silent.
Looking embarrassed, he fled out of the bathroom in a panic.
Chen Liya was the only one left in the bathroom.
She looked in the mirror and took off the mask.
The scar on her face was a faint pink, and new flesh was growing on the wound, making it a little itchy. She resisted the urge to scratch it.
Such a long scar, running diagonally across the right cheek, is indeed very scary.
She reached out and gently stroked the scar, feeling as if thousands of ants were biting her heart, causing her pain and torment.
All this was caused by Yu Nian!
Chen Liya returned to her workstation with an expressionless face.
Yu Nian whispered tentatively, "Liya, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Liya's eyes were dark, but the moment she turned her head, she smiled, "It's okay, Nian Nian, what's wrong?"
But the smile did not reach his eyes.
Yu Nian suppressed the strangeness in his heart and shook his head.
I hope she is overthinking it.
At noon, Yu Nian rejected Ji Feizhi's invitation to lunch and went to the staff cafeteria with Chen Liya.
The relationship between the two gradually became harmonious, and Yu Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Liya was the first colleague she met when she came to the company, and the two have always had a good relationship.
Yu Nian had already regarded her as a friend, and she didn't want to lose this friend.
afternoon.
The lady at the front desk came to the design department to look for Yu Nian and said that Ji Qingzhi was waiting for her downstairs at Ji's building.
Yu Nian said hello to his supervisor and went downstairs.
When I walked out of the Ji Building, I saw Ji Qingzhi holding an insulated box and standing in front of the building, looking around.
"Ji Qingzhi." Yu Nian walked closer.
When Ji Qingzhi saw Yu Nian, her face was full of smiles, "Sister-in-law, you finally came out."
She handed over the insulated box in her hand, "Sister-in-law, can you help me bring this to Qi Yan?"
Yu Nian didn't answer and looked at her, "Why don't you go by yourself?"
Ji Qingzhi pursed his lips, looking aggrieved. "It's a house arrest order. My eldest brother said that I'm not allowed to enter the Ji family again."
Yu Nian remembered the last time they had fought and pursed her lips.
I feel like I'm quite childish for arguing with a little girl.
Ji Qingzhi had just graduated from college. She was a girl in her early 20s and the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. It was normal for her to be spoiled.
Ji Qingzhi also thought of the last time they fought and smiled awkwardly.
"Sister-in-law, I was indeed at fault last time. In fact, that was the first time I hit someone. Zheng Na instigated me at that time and I thought you and Qi Yan..." Ji Qingzhi was really mad at that time, so she hit someone.
She really liked Qi Yan so much that she had a different feeling about him from the first time she met him.
Ten years.
Yu Nian smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all over."
The two of them can be said to have known each other through fighting.
Ji Qingzhi is actually quite kind at heart.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have gone to so much trouble to plead for the Wu family.
Yu Nian was a little curious for a moment, why did Ji Qingzhi like Qi Yan so much?
"Ji Qingzhi, may I ask why you like Secretary Qi so much?"
The first time Yu Nian saw Ji Qingzhi, the spoiled and arrogant girl, a look of melancholy appeared in his eyes.
“It’s a long story,” she said.
Ji Qingzhi glanced at the coffee shop downstairs and said, "Sister-in-law, how about going in for a cup of coffee?"
