On Thursday, Jiang Ci received a WeChat message from Lu Yudong: "Take Monday off to pick up Grandpa."
"Monday?" Jiang Ci disliked always taking leave, so she asked specifically.
"Is there a problem?"
Lu Yudong''s rhetorical question left Jiang Ci with no room to argue.
"What time?"
"Three in the afternoon. We''ll be back Tuesday morning."
Just as Jiang Ci was happily thinking she only needed to take two hours off, she received another WeChat message: "Little Ci, there''s another diary from Shao Zheng. Do you want it?"
The message was from Wang Xuan, Shao Zheng''s mother.
"Of course, I want it. Where is it?" Jiang Ci was very excited.
"It''s at the place where Shao Zheng was volunteering. We brought back all of Shao Zheng''s belongings earlier, but this diary was found later. I thought you might want it, so you should contact the principal of the school where you and Shao Zheng volunteered."
After Wang Xuan finished speaking, she sent Jiang Ci the principal''s contact card.
The principal said their place was too poor to have courier services, so Jiang Ci had to pick it up herself.
Jiang Ci had previously agreed with Dr. Fu to visit her mom over the weekend, so she definitely wouldn''t be free then.
Since Lu Yudong wanted Jiang Ci to return to Grandpa''s house by three on Monday afternoon, Jiang Ci decided to take the whole day off on Monday and go to Ningxiang County in the morning.This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
She thought it would be easy to take leave this time too, but unexpectedly, Xing Baohua wasn''t as easygoing this time.
"Little Jiang, you just got confirmed, and you''re always taking leave. Does that make sense? Mondays are busy, and every time you take leave on Monday, how much work do others have to do for you? Don''t you have any idea?"
Jiang Ci thought: Ever since Yin Xuemo arrived, even Xing Baohua''s attitude has changed.
Seeing that she might not get the leave, Jiang Ci said, "Mr. Lu asked me to."
After a long time, Xing Baohua replied, "Make it quick."
As expected, Lu Yudong''s name worked best.
In the past couple of days, Jiang Ci even saw Lu Yudong once, quite coincidentally, at the first training conference of "New East Star."
Jiang Ci''s good friend Han Lan was selected for "New East Star," and after work on Friday, she had to attend an hour-long employee training.
After work, Jiang Ci was in the room next to the training room, scrolling through her phone and waiting for Han Lan.
Lu Yudong came in; he was there to retrieve some documents he had forgotten.
Seeing Jiang Ci, he seemed a bit surprised, and Jiang Ci was also taken aback.
"Still here?" Lu Yudong asked her.
Jiang Ci hurriedly stood up, looking like an employee respectfully greeting a leader, "Yes, still here."
"New East Star" was training for Lu Yudong''s management team, and he had to attend the first training conference.
"About last time, you''d better explain it clearly to me." Just as Lu Yudong was about to leave, he suddenly turned back and said to Jiang Ci.
After all, last time was left unresolved, and Lu Yudong was still angry and hadn''t listened.
"Then Mr. Lu, shouldn''t you explain your matter with Yin Xuemo to me?" Jiang Ci raised her head, looking directly at Lu Yudong.
The corners of Lu Yudong''s lips slightly lifted, seemingly with a hint of sarcasm, "To you?"
His meaning was clear: Do I owe you an explanation?
"Spouses should have a duty to be faithful to each other, Mr. Lu. You don''t think our marriage certificate is fake, do you? We did sleep together, after all! Why is it that only officials are allowed to set fires, but commoners can''t light lamps? If there''s an explanation needed, it should be you explaining first," Jiang Ci said.
Lu Yudong only intended to remind Jiang Ci not to be too flirtatious, but he didn''t expect to be countered by her.
"Jealous?" Lu Yudong lowered his head, calmly adjusting his cufflinks.
Jiang Ci smiled, "Not really. But ever since Yin Xuemo arrived, my situation in the company has changed, and I''m standing up for myself. Let''s not have it come out in the future that we already have a marriage certificate, and everyone says I''m wearing a cuckold''s hat. Moreover, Mr. Lu, having a reputation for two-timing isn''t pleasant. Any ambiguity with your ex-girlfriend during the marriage could affect the company''s stock price. You''d better be careful."
Lu Yudong paused his hand on his cufflinks.
Jiang Ci''s words hit the mark.
However, Lu Yudong''s expression didn''t linger too long, "So, in the future, try to avoid wearing another man''s coat at the hotel entrance."
Probably recalling that day''s events, Lu Yudong was a bit angry again, and his tone was heavier.
"I assure you, I conduct myself with integrity. I won''t embarrass you, Mr. Lu, but you shouldn''t bring me any unwanted attention either."
Lu Yudong left, his face dark with anger.
She probably forgot that he spent five million.
