Chapter 10 Have You Ever Doubted Me?
Yan Ruo was speechless at this moment.
"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I just hope that Madam Xu won't say such inexplicable things to me again!"
Lin Shuyun snorted softly.
"Whether you have any ill intentions or not, you know it well enough!"
"I know that a woman with your background will naturally work hard to climb up the social ladder, but some people are definitely not something you can dream of."
As she spoke, she took out a emerald green bracelet.
"Did you see it? I bought this bracelet from an auction specifically as a gift for Zhinian."
"Do you know how much a pair of bracelets like this would cost?"
As he spoke, he held the bracelet in front of Yan Ruo, as if to broaden her horizons.
"With your current salary, even if you work as a secretary at Xu's for your whole life, you still can't afford it!"
Yan Ruo didn't understand why she suddenly started showing off.
"Whether I can afford it or not is my own business, so don't worry about it."
After saying that, he prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shuyun stuffed the bracelet directly into her hand and let go without waiting for her to hold it firmly.
“Bang!!”
This bracelet, which she was said to have been unable to afford even if she worked her entire life for Xu's company, suddenly broke into several pieces.
Lin Shuyun immediately screamed.
"Secretary Yan, this is the gift I prepared for my future daughter-in-law. Even if you are jealous, you can't smash it, right?"
Looking at the face-changing performance of the person in front of him, Yan Ru was a little stunned.
I've watched too many palace dramas! Why are they still using this frame-up trick?
She turned around as if she had sensed something, and sure enough, Xu Shaoyu was standing not far away.
Lin Shuyun seemed angry and sad.
"Shao Yu, look at your secretary. I told you she has bad intentions!"
"I thought young people had similar tastes, so I wanted her to help me take a look. But when she heard I was going to give it to my future daughter-in-law, she actually smashed it on purpose!"
What a big pot!
Yan Ruo looked at Lin Shuyun, then at Xu Shaoyu, her tone flat.
"I didn't fall!"
Lin Shuyun exploded instantly, "If it wasn't you who dropped it, could it be me?"
Yan Ruo looked at her calmly.
"Mrs. Xu, are you really going to insist that I broke this bracelet on purpose?"
Lin Shuyun, "There are only two of us here. If it's not you, then it must be me."
Yan Ruo wanted to say something else, but Xu Shaoyu spoke up.
"Secretary Yan, please leave first!"
Yan Ruo suddenly turned to look at him, "What do you mean, Mr. Xu? Don't I even have the right to defend myself?"
"That's not what I meant." Xu Shaoyu looked at her soothingly. "Don't worry! I'll take care of this!"
Before Yan Ruo could refute, Lin Shuyun started yelling first.
"What do you mean? You handle it! Shaoyu! Are you trying to protect this woman? Do you know how much this bracelet cost? I'm going to make her pay for it today!"
You can insult me, but you absolutely cannot cheat me out of my money!
Yan Ruo sneered, "If you insist on saying that I broke it on purpose, then call the police!"
Lin Shuyun's eyes widened. "What did you say? Call the police?"
Yan Ruo, "That's right! Since this bracelet is so valuable, it's enough to call the police!"
Lin Shuyun disagreed, "Our Xu family can't afford to lose this person!"
Seeing that the quarrel here had attracted the attention of other members of the Xu family, Xu Shaoyu walked over to Yan Ruo and whispered.
"Go wait for me in the car first!"
Yan Ruo just pretended not to hear.
"Really? This bracelet is worth a fortune! Is Madam Xu afraid of embarrassment or the truth being discovered?"
Lin Shuyun's face was gloomy, but she still said stubbornly:
"What a joke! Am I wrongly accusing you?"
I saw other people in the room looking over as well.
Yan Ruo glanced at Xu Shaoyu, who looked unhappy, and sneered in her heart.
"Whether it's an injustice or not is not something anyone can just say casually."
She raised her hand and pointed at the Cullinan parked not far away, facing them.
"It just so happens that Mr. Xu's car has parking surveillance turned on. What's the truth? Just take a look at the surveillance and you'll know!"
Xu Shaoyu glanced at her, took out his phone and said:
"I'll call Xiao Zhang over to check the surveillance camera in the car!"
Lin Shuyun didn't believe it at first, but when she heard him say that, her eyes flickered and her expression instantly became flustered!
He immediately changed his words and said:
"Forget it! Considering Secretary Yan has worked at Xu's for many years, I don't want to make a scene! There's no need to mobilize so many people and call this and that over! I call it bad luck, and I don't want you to pay for it!"
The words sound nice, but seeing this scene, the three of them know the truth.
Yan Ruo sneered, he was determined to put the blame on her!
Just as she was about to say something, her wrist felt tight, and Xu Shaoyu pulled her behind him. Then he looked at Lin Zui with a gloomy face. After a long while, he turned his head and said.
"Go call Xiao Zhang, we're ready to leave!"
Only after watching her figure walk away did Xu Shaoyu look at Lin Shuyun again.
"Mom! What on earth do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do? She broke the bracelet I bought at a high price, and I didn't ask her to compensate me. What can I do?" Lin Shuyun became more and more excited as she spoke.
"I want you to marry a wife who is of equal status and can help you in times of crisis. Not a woman like Yan Ruo who relies on her looks to cling to you!"
"She didn't try to get close to me!" Xu Shaoyu's deep eyes were filled with a bit of coldness as he spoke word by word.
"Even if he really did cling to me, I allowed it!"
Lin Shuyun was a little bit unbelievable.
"So, you brought her here on purpose today?"
"Don't worry about my affairs anymore!" Xu Shaoyu's expression was cold, and his tone was even colder, without a trace of emotion.
Even when facing his own mother, the aura of the superior remained undiminished.
"If I want something, I'll go get it myself! Isn't that what you taught me since I was a child?"
Hearing these words, the anger on Lin Shuyun's face instantly disappeared, and instead it turned a little pale.
"Are you blaming me? Blaming me for being too harsh on you?"
"Strict?" Xu Shaoyu sneered.
"I just want to tell you, don't do unnecessary things!"
Before turning to leave, he stopped and said, "More!"
He turned his head to look at Lin Shuyun, who was standing there with an extremely ugly expression, and said with a cold expression.
"If you need money, you can come to me instead of blackmailing people with fake goods! If you have this time, you might as well manage the Lin family and make sure they don't get too greedy or overreach!"
Seeing Xu Shaoyu walking further and further away, and thinking of the methods Xu Shaoyu had used to deal with Mr. Xu Erye in the past, Lin Shuyun, whose face was pale, suddenly woke up as if from a dream.
"I'm really doing this for your own good, Shaoyu! The Lin family is your uncle's family!"
On the way back, no one spoke in the car.
Back at the house where they lived, Yan Ruo opened the door, changed her shoes and washed her hands.
Just as she was about to go to the kitchen to boil water, Xu Shaoyu hugged her from behind.
"Yan Ruo, are you angry?"
Yan Ruo lowered her head and looked at the arms that were tightly wrapped around her. She couldn't help but raise her hand, wanting to cover the hands with well-defined muscles and bones that had fascinated her so much.
But the moment he touched it, he withdrew his hand.
She didn't answer but asked, "Just now, did you doubt me?"
"No!" Xu Shaoyu leaned his head on her shoulder, breathing in her scent, and said with a sigh, "How could I possibly doubt you!"
If you don't doubt me, why do you keep asking me to leave?
Yan Ruo didn't ask this question that had been on his mind all the way.
"That's good!" Yan Ruo patted his arm!
"Okay, I didn't eat enough just now. I'm going to cook a bowl of noodles. Do you want to eat?"
"eat!"
"Then I'll cook more!"
Xu Shaoyu let go of his arm and saw Yan Ruo walking towards the kitchen without looking back. His eyes couldn't help but darken a little.
