When Shen Yu returned, he found that the office, which had been clean and tidy before he left, had become a mess: magazines and snacks were scattered on the sofa and coffee table, along with someone's bag and high heels.
As for herself, she leisurely nestled on the sofa, munching on snacks, looking completely lost in thought.
Shen Yu's eyes darkened, and he walked over:
"What are you thinking about?"
Unexpectedly, his words startled Jing Weiyang.
She suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes misty with surprise as she looked at him, like a frightened fledgling bird, so beautiful.
Her long eyelashes trembled rapidly before she found her voice: "You're back~"
She just remembered a plot point from the original story: the original owner of this body came to the company and encountered the female lead. Feeling guilty, she deliberately picked a fight with the female lead, but the male lead saw it and the two had a big argument.
After this incident, everyone in the company knew that the president's wife was out of favor, and they gossiped about her behind her back.
To make matters worse, not long after, news broke that the new product design drawings had been leaked, causing significant losses to the Shen family. Rumors then spread that the original owner of this body was jealous of the female lead and deliberately leaked the drawings, since the only people in the company who had access to the design drawings at the time, besides the male and female leads, were the president's wife who came to cause trouble.
Everyone believed that the president's wife did it, calling her petty, selfish, and stupid, no matter how the original owner explained it.
This incident was only exposed much later, and it was done by a corporate spy. However, by then, the original owner had already divorced the male protagonist and been sent to a mental hospital, so it was no use in clearing her name.
Jing Weiyang was initially eager to explain the matter to Shen Yu, but she gradually calmed down halfway there.
Nothing has happened yet, and there's no evidence that the female lead is framing her. If she were to make such a rash statement, wouldn't that be considered slander? Would she be looking for trouble and starting a fight with Shen Yu?
But if she doesn't speak up, and there really is a mole, she'll be the one who suffers when the truth comes out...
Jing Weiyang struggled with how to start the conversation, staring at Shen Yu intently, her expression a mixture of distress and grievance.
In Shen Yu's eyes, it looked exactly like the way she cried when she was bullied at night.
His mouth went dry from being stared at, and just as he was about to do something...
A certain drama queen suddenly made her move.
He was caught completely off guard, and all his expressions froze on his face.
Jing Weiyang suddenly let out a loud scream, and then began to cry in a fake manner.
"Honey, there's something I don't know if I should tell you... But if I do, I'm afraid you'll get angry... I'm so conflicted, so incredibly conflicted... Waaah..."
While dramatically covering her face and pretending to cry, she secretly opened one eye to peek at Shen Yu's expression, and then... she got caught.
Shen Yu looked coldly at Jing Weiyang, gave a cryptic sneer, and spoke:
"After insulting my intelligence, are you trying to blind me now?"
Jing Weiyang was dumbfounded.
What did Shen Yu mean by that?
But then, someone, fearless of death, added insult to injury: "You probably have no idea how awful your acting is."
Jing Weiyang's expression froze, as if something was choking her.
What a brilliant strategy!
Why don't I deserve your recognition after putting on such a great performance?!
She sat up angrily, gave Chen Yu a hard "humph," and turned the back of her head to him.
My baby is angry, and I can't soothe him/her!
Seeing Jing Weiyang's sullen expression, Shen Yu couldn't help but lower his head and chuckle.
He walked over, ignoring Jing Weiyang's struggles, and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.
"What's wrong? Who offended you, my lady?"
The man's voice was both seductive and sexy. Jing Weiyang, despite being angry, couldn't help but blush as she listened.
