In the afternoon, Gu Yan was a little distracted while working.
Yang Min noticed from the office, frowned slightly, shook her head, sighed, and stopped paying attention to the outside.
Wang Qi always thought she was worried about the restaurant, and didn’t try to persuade her. For this kind of thing, only when you see it clearly yourself will you not be affected; what others say is useless.
Meanwhile, Lin Fei snorted disdainfully, feeling that she revealed her true colors in less than a day, and that connections were useless.
She came from the countryside, was competitive, and hated those with connections, simply out of jealousy for their better conditions.
However, she didn’t know that without Tang Yuxiu, Gu Yan was even worse off than her.
Gu Yan was just a bit luckier, having received Tang Yuxiu’s approval, but her status remained a mistress in the shadows.
By six o’clock, Gu Yan was about to leave work when You Shuyang’s call came in on time.
"Miss Gu, President Tang wants you to come up and wait for him so you can go back together after work."
Gu Yan frowned slightly and refused, "No need. I brought my keys and can go back myself today."
Hearing this, You Shuyang cautiously looked at Tang Yuxiu and whispered, "President Tang, Miss Gu said she wants to go back by herself. What should I say?"
Tang Yuxiu squinted his eyes, "Do I have to teach you how to speak?"
You Shuyang silently complained, but I need to know what you’re thinking—I’m not you and can’t read minds.
However, seeing his not-so-good expression, You Shuyang roughly knew how to respond to Gu Yan.
"Miss Gu, President Tang means you should come up first."
Gu Yan felt a bit pleased—why should she go up just because he said so? She decided not to comply.
"Tell him I’m already out of the office, catching the bus. I’ll go back myself, and he should just work at his own pace."
With that, Gu Yan decisively hung up the phone, with a hint of defiance.
Ever since hearing those comments at noon, she had been in a bad mood, particularly irritated when Tang Yuxiu was mentioned.
But she never considered why she felt that way, just thinking, I’m in a bad mood, no explanation needed, and no one should bother me.
Gu Yan packed her bag and, at Wang Qi’s invitation, left work with her.
Meanwhile, in the General Manager’s office, one man secretly swallowed his saliva, thinking about how to sneak away, while the other had a gloomy expression, nearly wanting to kill someone.
Well, Gu Yan, who was acting so servile in the morning, now dares to hang up on him!
Becoming bolder and bolder!
He couldn’t help but wonder if he had been too easygoing lately, making her think that as a mistress she could throw tantrums at her sugar daddy and refuse his requests?
He suddenly felt like the most tragic, incompetent sponsor in history—unable to even control one woman.
Tang Yuxiu suddenly stood up, his chair sliding back and spinning twice.
You Shuyang jumped in fright, ready to make a run for it at any moment.
However, Tang Yuxiu didn’t even look at him, just tossed out, "Clean up the desk for me," and left the office.
Once again, General Manager Tang left work early because of Miss Gu.
You Shuyang breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that the anger didn’t spill over onto him, however things went.
He resignedly tidied up the desk, suddenly thought of something, and immediately took out his phone to open the group chat.
Despite the last lesson from Tang Yuxiu, he really couldn’t resist sharing some gossip about the young master—that unshared gossip could cause internal damage!
