Chapter 826 - Gossips (1/2)

This poor secretary, who did not know better, had taken Secretary Xiao Chen’s constant warnings as nothing. This was a classic: if one did not listen to the elder, one would then suffer. Now, her job was gone.

When the secretary heard this, she cried again. It was difficult for her to graduate from a top-tier school, and with one step at a time, she was lucky enough to hold this position. Her family members were proud of her, and so was she. If she was fired, she would never find such a great job again.

“Vice CEO, I beg you.” She extended his hand and pulled Du Jingtang’s clothes. “Please beg CEO and ask him not to chase me away. I know my mistake. I will definitely focus on my work and not talk nonsense again.”

Du Jingtang pulled his clothes away and felt goosebumps all over his body. It was better for a woman to be dignified. Also, there was no use pulling him because he was not straight.

Once the secretary saw Du Jingtang pull himself away, she covered her face and cried.

Du Jingtang felt that he had wasted his breath from all the things he said. He was simply speaking an alien language to her, and he had squatted for too long until his legs started to numb.

“I said, you should go soon.” He said it as an advice. If not, with her howling and crying, once that man got irritated…

Besides, that man was never gentle with women.

The secretary raised her face covered in tears, and there was half a fake lash on her eyelid. Du Jingtang could not help but laugh a little. Hurriedly, he stood up and called the security guard.

What was going on today? Why did he fire five employees? If this went on, everyone in the company would be fearing for their own death.

Carefully, he opened the door and pasted his face on it as if he was a thief. In the end—when he saw that Chu Lui was alone in front of the office table, he walked in; and even his footsteps started to relax. Slowly, he walked to Chu Lui.

“Is she asleep?” he asked softly.

“Mm.” Chu Lui answered, and his fingers flipped through the documents on the table speedily. He wanted to finish these earlier so he could go home.

“Brother, did you ask about Little Cutie?”

Du Jingtang found it weird. He knew that Xia Ruoxin came back, but when she did, he did not see Rainy. Was this not strange?

“She didn’t say.” Chu Lui threw the pen in his hand aside. He had asked countless times, but other than not answering, she just smiled. That type of smile gave him a weird feeling, but even so, he did not dare force it out of her.

However, she should not want to say it. If Rainy was really in trouble, it was impossible that she could still eat and drink. She would have gone crazy so Rainy was probably in someone’s care. Perhaps, it was also because she did not dare bring Rainy back in fear that his mother would snatch Rainy away.

When Du Jingtang knew about it, he was disappointed. However, after some thought, it was understandable.

Just that, his instincts told him that there was something wrong.

“I just feel that there’s something strange about Sister Ruoxin returning…” He touched his chin. Women’s intuition was accurate, but so were men’s.
