After returning to the company, the first sentence Xue Zhan said was: "Notify the personnel department that from today on, Zhao Yu will officially be my assistant."
Although everyone was surprised, they did not dare to show anything on their faces. Xue Zi'ang's face was unprecedentedly darkened, Zhao Yu even noticed the trace of panic in his eyes.
Before that, no matter how she ignored him, or how she used Xue Zhan to stimulate revenge on him, he firmly believed that she would not develop any real affection, and even more convinced that his uncle would not rob his woman. But now, Zhao Yu knew that his confidence was beginning to collapse.
Loosening his fist that had been clenched for awhile, Xue Zi'ang strode forward, grabbing Zhao Yu's wrist, and was about to bring her to his office. Zhao Yu struggled, but his grip became tighter and tighter, his anger and fear almost made him lose his mind. But before he could drag her into the office, a tall figure had already blocked him.
Xue Zhan looked at him coldly: "Let go."
Xue Zi'ang glared at him and took Zhao Yu into his arms forcefully in front of him: "She is my girlfriend."
"You have broken up." Xue Zhan's gaze fell on Zhao Yu's wrist, which was held tight by him, "Let her go."
Xue Zi'ang strenghtened his grip, his eyes full of provocation and hostility.
"Xue Zi'ang, let me go!" Zhao Yu continued to struggle, "You're hurting me."
Because his grip was too hard, the blue veins on the back of her hand were already prominent.
Xue Zhan glanced at it, his eyes got even colder: "Apart from bullying her, hurt her, what else can you do?"
These words were like a sharp blade, stabbed against Xue Zi'ang's weak point, he trembled, looked down at her red wrist and her tearful eyes.
He suddenly let go, before he could utter a word, Zhao Yu said coldly, "You want to say something to me? Okay, we'll talk after I get off work."

Sometime later at the same private room in the same restaurant, but the person opposite Zhao Yu has changed from Xue Zhan to Xue Zi'ang, and the restless person has also changed from Zhao Yu to the current Xue Zi'ang.
Looking at her indifferent appearance, Xue Zi'ang hesitated a few times before he finally said: "Zhao Yu, I... fell in love with you."
He has been chasing after her and apologizing to her these past few days. He has said sorry countless times, but this sentence has never been made public.
However, such a serious and sincere confession only gain a slight smile from Zhao Yu: "I know, it should be... before you hired me as an assistant, you fell in love with me, right? Otherwise? Why would you suddenly do those things to me? It's a pity that I'm so slow-witted, I thought it was just like you said, you couldn't bear to watch me get bullied by others, so you was just lending me a hand."
He heard the irony in her words. Xue Zi'ang rubbed his eyebrows frustatedly: "Zhao Yu, I admit that I was wrong before. I did it because I saw her shadow in you, that's why I...but not anymore, later on I..."
"I don't believe it." Zhao Yu looked at him blankly, "Xue Zi'ang, no matter what you say now, I won't believe you anymore."
"Zhao Yu..."
"If you really loved me, you won't left me alone in Xue's house for Xu Miao, if you really loved me, you wouldn't let me encounter such danger at the annual meeting. You loved Xu Miao, not me."
"She has canceled her wedding, and I knew that she hasn't forgotten me all these years. If I still liked her, I would have gone to her long ago, why would I sit here and tell you all of this?"
"Because you are not willing to accept my reason." Zhao Yu stared at him calmly, she raised her lips and smiled, "You don't love me, you just couldn't bear to accept that someone like me didn't want you anymore."
Xue Zi'ang was speechless.
He knew that what she said was not the truth, he believed in his own feelings, but at this moment, facing her like this, he realized how powerless his explanation was.
He had done so many wrong doings that broke her heart and shattered all her trust in him.
"Xue Zi'ang, let me go. I'm really tired, I don't want to play this game with you anymore, I can't afford it."
Her tone was full of helplessness and self-deprecation, "You and I have never been in the same world. I was too naive before and had an unrealistic dream, but now, I finally woke up and everything must come to an end."
Fingertips firmly grasped the spoon in his hand, Xue Zi'ang steadily and silently looked at her .
Zhao Yu got up, took her bag and walked out. As soon as she opened the door, she was greeted by a group of men in suits and leather shoes, they were walking toward the next room. Among these people, there was Ji Sui, whom she hadn't seen for awhile.
Ji Sui also saw her at the same moment. In addition to being surprised, he seemed to be a little overwhelmed. Then he subconsciously glanced inside the room, and happened to peek at Xue Zi'ang sitting on the sofa.
The fluster on his face gradually turned into gloom, while he, who was still hesitating to say hello, finally passed her slowly without saying a word.
Zhao Yu initially wanted to leave right away, but she unexpectedly met Ji Sui, upon noticing his reaction, she suddenly changed her mind.
Such a coincidence, she didn't need to deliberately arranged it, now that it naturally happened, she has to make a good use of it.
Before Xue Zi'ang came out, she went out from the current restaurant and entered the restaurant at the opposite building, found an easy-to-observe position to seat on, stealthly on guard using the sofa as a cover.
It didn't take long for her to notice Xue Zi'ang came out with his head down, even if she couldn't see his expression clearly, she could still sense his loss and despair.
It's a pity that she is so selfish that she has no empathy and no signs of guilt.

After waiting for more than an hour, Zhao Yu finally saw Ji Sui and the group of people came out of the restaurant, turned a corner to the left and walked towards the elevator.
She quickly checked out and left, took the escalator from the right to the first floor, then went out of the gate. She hugged her arms and huddled close, slowly walked on the road with bright street lights while facing the raging snow.
Ji Sui definitely will be driving out of the basement parking lot, and his speed would not be as fast as her. The road she was taking now was a one-way street that he had to go through to get out of the basement.
He had seen her just now, he should still remember her clothes, and could recognize her back-a very abrupt and conspicuous sorry figure on such a windy and snowy night.
Sure enough, not long after walking along the street, a car stopped beside her.
When she heard the claxon, she pretended to appear startled, but when she looked at the car more clearly, she was really surprised.
It wasn't Ji Sui's car, instead it was an unfamiliar black sedan, however the person in the driver's seat, she did recognized.
She never thought that after coincidentally meeting Ji Sui here, she would accidentally encounter Shang Lu as well.
Since she didn't get in the car, Shang Lu could only open the car door and get out. He picked up the coat that was placed on the passenger seat on the way out. When he came to her, he wrapped the coat around her, pulled her arm and shoved her into the shotgun seat.
Shang Lu didn't speak, Zhao Yu also kept silent, she just stared out the window blankly, and soon she saw Ji Sui's car in the rearview mirror.
So, just now, did he saw them?
Did he recognized Shang Lu? Was he going to check this car's plate number?
Did her plan got screwed up?
