Gu Xin was always so innocent.
Lu Manman did not want to expose him either. She sighed. “Why don’t you consider marrying Di An?”
“Why would I consider it?!” Gu Xin’s eyes widened. “I don’t love him at all.”
“Or perhaps you once did?” Lu Manman asked.
“Impossible!” Gu Xin said directly. “I only hate Di An now! I hate him!”
Lu Manman pursed her lips and looked at the deserted streets of Wen City. “Forget it. Don’t think too much.”
“I don’t want to. I’m getting married to Di Yi in two days anyway. I don’t care what happens to Di An. I don’t care!” Gu Xin was still that heartless woman.
After all that had happened, this woman had thought things through so quickly.
The car arrived at Mo Yuanxiu’s villa.
Gu Xin followed Lu Manman in.
It was already very late, and everyone was in no mood to do anything else. They headed upstairs.
Gu Xin watched as Mo Yuanxiu and Lu Manman headed to their respective rooms. She asked Lu Manman, “Aren’t you guys sleeping together?”
Stunned, she pulled Gu Xin to her room. “Didn’t I want to accompany you?”
“I don’t need you to affect your married life because of me.”
“It doesn’t matter at this point,” Lu Manman said. “I’ll help you find a clean shirt. Go take a shower. You’re covered in blood.”
Gu Xin looked down at the bloodstains on her body.
She could not put her finger on how she felt. The image of Di An covered in blood appeared in her head…
Lu Manman looked at her expression.
This girl was just being stubborn.
She sighed and handed her new pajamas and underwear. “Go take a shower.”
Gu Xin snapped out of her daze.
She looked at Lu Manman and asked softly, “What do you think will happen if Di An loses his sight in the future?”
“You’ll know in the future.” Lu Manman held her hand. “Go take a shower. Don’t think about it anymore.”
“Mm-hm.”
Gu Xin entered the bathroom.
Lu Manman looked in the direction of the bathroom.
Gu Xin, you’ll be accompanying him in the future. You’ll know exactly what happens to him!
…
The following day.
She only fell asleep at four in the morning, having comforted Gu Xin a little before falling asleep.
When the alarm went off, she hurriedly closed it and forced herself to get out of bed.
She looked at Gu Xin, who was sound asleep, and got out of bed quietly. She washed up and then left, closing the door behind her.
Then, she went downstairs.
Butler Wang was cleaning up in the living room. He looked at Lu Manman and respectfully said, “Madam Mo, you’re up so early? Didn’t you come back very late last night?”
“Mm-hm, I have something on, so I have to go to the company.” Lu Manman sounded tired and did not look too good. “My friend is resting in my room. Don’t disturb her. She usually wakes up at noon, and when she does, tell her not to leave the villa and wait for me to come back! Then, you can make her some fried duck with a sauce that she likes. Her taste is a little heavy, so you can add some chili.”
“Yes, Madam Mo,” Wang Zhong said respectfully.
Lu Manman nodded and left.
Qin Ao was already waiting at the door.
Lu Manman looked at Qin Ao and remembered that they had been drinking last night. She casually asked, “What time did you drink until last night?”
“It ended very early. After Mr. Mo left with you, Mr. Ye dismissed everyone,” Qin Ao answered.
“Oh.” Lu Manman nodded and then asked, “Ye Heng knows Di An, right?”
Qin Ao was stunned.
Lu Manman looked at his expression.
Qin Ao respectfully said, “Mr. Mo has instructed me not to say what I shouldn’t.”
Mo Yuanxiu!
Qin Ao kept quiet.
Lu Manman did not say anything else. Soon, the car arrived at the Lu Firm building.
When Lu Manman returned to the office, Zhang Cui followed her respectfully.
Lu Manman said, “I’ll go through the amended proposal yesterday at eleven. You and the two central managers can decide on the time. I won’t be in the company in the afternoon, so get them to hurry up.”
“Yes.” Zhang Cui nodded and was ready to leave.
“Oh right, make me a cup of coffee with no sugar.” Lu Manman had already turned on her computer.
Zhang Cui looked at her in shock.
She rarely drank coffee, not to mention without sugar.
Lu Manman said calmly, “I’m a little tired. I need to focus.”
“Oh.” Zhang Cui nodded and left.
Lu Manman got to work.
Zhang Cui sent her coffee and confirmed the meeting time was at ten-thirty.
It was time.
Lu Manman got up and headed to the meeting room.
The two central managers and the others were already waiting in the conference room.
Lu Manman sat down and said directly, “Let’s begin.”
With that, the door was pushed open.
Lu Manman narrowed her eyes as she watched Lu Xuanran appear in the meeting room.
“What’s the matter?” Lu Manman did not look too good.
“Director Lu.” Lu Xuanran addressed her casually. “The chairman has just passed a notice. From today onward, I’ll be working in the Marketing Department and will be learning marketing from you. So I’ll start with your meeting today.”
Lu Manman’s expression darkened.
She did not think that Lu Xuanran would be so motivated.
She turned around.
“Find a seat.”
Lu Xuanran smiled.
Someday, Lu Manman would know the consequences of looking down on him!
