After Zhao Chuning returned to the company, he found out that the entire logistics department, no, probably the entire company, knew about the incident in which Tang Yi dragged him into the car at noon.
It is true that good news never travels far, but bad news travels a thousand miles!
She took the cup, ignored everyone's gazes, and walked into the tea room to pour herself some water as if nothing had happened. Before she entered, she heard someone talking inside.
"This woman is really capable! I heard that Mr. Cheng from CZ came over this afternoon. And now she's getting along with Mr. Tang again."
"Hey, you tell me, how come her method of hooking up with a rich husband is so amazing? She betrayed the company and suffered such a huge loss, but she still has someone to protect her and can't get away. We, who dress up and flaunt ourselves every day, still have a hard time hooking up a department manager. I think we really need to learn from her."
"What skills do you want to learn? The skills in bed? That's his unique skill. If I give it to you, won't the master starve to death?"
“Hahaha~” a burst of laughter.
"You seem to be having a good time chatting!" Zhao Chuning walked in with a cup in hand, as if she was not the one being mocked just now, and her expression was always smiling. She calmly poured herself a glass of water, and as if she suddenly realized that the situation was a bit awkward, she took a sip of the water and looked around innocently, "Why are you all silent? It doesn't matter, you guys continue chatting, don't bother me."
Everyone looked at each other, coughed awkwardly, and hurried out of the tea room. Someone muttered, "Look at how arrogant she is. She really thinks she is the future president's wife. Who doesn't know that Mr. Tang has a fiancée? He was just playing with her, but she took it seriously. It will be a shame if she is kicked away by Mr. Tang."
"Okay, stop talking. We are all colleagues. We will see each other sooner or later."
Several women hurried out of the tea room. Zhao Chuning only heard their whispers in bits and pieces, but he still heard some of them.
He took a deep breath, looked straight ahead, and his eyes fell on a point not far away, feeling melancholy.
When Zhao Chuning was about to get off work, her cell phone suddenly rang. The words "Tang Yi" flashed on the screen. She hesitated for a moment before answering the call, but did not take the initiative to speak, just quietly waiting to hear the voice on the other end.
"I'm going on a business trip for ten days." After a while, Tang Yi's voice came from the other end of the phone. It was still cold and clear, but sounded very peaceful.
Zhao Chuning was slightly startled. She was a little nervous about him suddenly reporting his whereabouts to her. But she just asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"What?"
Zhao Chuning put his free hand into the hot water bottle on the table and said, "I am no longer your secretary, so you don't have to tell me about your business trip, Mr. Tang."
"..." Tang Yi's breathing became heavier, and then, with a 'click', he hung up the phone. He hung up the phone so hard and decisively that she could even feel his rage. Zhao Chuning held the phone, listening to the beeping sound, and couldn't help but smile.
She wins this round!
Upstairs, Tang Yi threw his phone on the sofa with a cold face. It was unnecessary to call her to report his whereabouts.
———
Tang Yi was on a business trip. He brought his assistant, secretary, and a group of senior executives with him. He was gone for a full ten days.
Zhao Chuning had a very easy time during this period. The work in the logistics department was completely different from the work in the secretarial office. With her ability, she had an easy time in the logistics department. She didn't have to worry about Tang Yi all the time, and she finally lived a peaceful life.
Ten days later.
evening.
A luxury car was parked at the entrance of the community. The man stood by the car, playing with a brocade box in his hand. He had never bought gifts for anyone before, but when he went to Country S and passed by a famous watch shop and saw a white watch, her shadow flashed in his mind.
However, he had never done anything as pretentious as giving gifts, which made him feel awkward.
Tang Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally threw the brocade box back into the car.
He opened the car door and prepared to get in and drive away. However, just as he raised his leg, a small figure carrying a schoolbag was pushed and rolled to his feet like a dumpling.
Tang Yi looked down and saw a very cute and lively little girl. She was pushed by a fat boy and fell down. She rolled directly to his feet and sat on his feet.
Tang Yi didn't like children, no, he even hated them. However, when he looked down and saw the little girl's face flushed red, his expression softened a little, and he bent over to pick the child up. But the little girl supported herself on the ground and stood up by herself. She glared at the boy who pushed her with her big watery eyes, "You pushed someone, Mommy said that a real man would not fight with a woman! You are not a man!"
"I did it! What's wrong? Humph! You don't even have a father, how can you say you are a man?" The little boy put his hands on his hips and taunted. He found the little girl's painful expression when he said she had no father, and he became even more proud, repeating again and again: "You have no father! No father! No father!"
Tang Yi stood aside, his expression cold. For a long time, the laughter from childhood filled his mind.
—Tang Yi, you don’t have a father!
-Your father doesn't want you! Your mother has slept with someone else and doesn't want you anymore!
—Tang Yi, you are just an unwanted annoying person!
On the side, the little girl was about to cry, tears welling up in her eyes. But the next moment, she didn't cry, but raised her chin coldly and stared at the boy opposite, "Who said I don't have a father?"
The childish and stubborn voice brought Tang Yi back to his senses. He looked down and saw the little guy's unyielding look, which distracted him for a moment.
He actually felt... somewhat similar to Zhao Chuning.
The little girl looked up at him, tugged at his trouser legs with her little hands, and then shouted to the little boy, "He is my daddy!"
Tang Yi raised his eyebrows. Was he being used as a shield by this little thing
The boy obviously didn't believe it and sneered, "How pitiful! Anyone caught on the street can call him daddy."
Little Yimi was so angry that she almost jumped up. She turned her little face and called out to Tang Yi, "Daddy."
That sweet, soft, sticky voice shocked Tang Yi. As if something had hit his heart, he stood there looking at the little girl for a while without moving.
"Haha, people just ignore you." The little boy laughed at her.
Little Yimi was so frustrated that he wanted to let go of the hand that was pulling the other person's trouser leg. Didn't the teacher say that when you see injustice, you should help others? This uncle is good-looking, but he doesn't have the heart to help others. So disappointed.
At this moment, little Yimi was suddenly picked up by a big hand. She was stunned and surprised. Her beautiful big eyes blinked and stared at the handsome uncle.
