Chapter 119 Scandal
Chapter 119 Scandal
He stared at her motionless, like a sculpture, his dark, deep eyes like twinkling stars in the night sky, with points of light flowing endlessly within them.
Deep within those pupils lies a tender affection that is rarely revealed in ordinary times.
He walked steadily and slowly toward her, each step feeling as if it were treading on her heart.
The distance between them grew shorter and shorter, so close that they could clearly feel each other's warm breath gently brushing against their cheeks.
She felt her heart suddenly lose control and begin to pound wildly, like a runaway horse that was impossible to tame.
Just then, a deep and magnetic voice, like heavenly music, gently rang in her ear: "Why are you always so easily embarrassed?"
The voice seemed to possess some kind of magic, captivating her completely and making her unable to extricate herself.
However, a sense of doubt and unease arose in her heart.
So he asked, "Mr. Fu... do you often treat other girls like this?"
After all, someone like Fu Shiyue, who knows how to charm people and is also a rich second-generation, must have had quite a few romantic experiences in the past.
Otherwise, how could he so skillfully and perfectly touch her heartstrings?
Ye Xingran mustn't get caught up in it...
Suddenly, at that moment, the lights came on.
They just looked at each other like that.
Realizing she had done something wrong, Ye Xingran immediately turned her head away.
"Mr. Fu, you seem to have overstepped your bounds."
Fu Shiyue raised an eyebrow slightly, a faint smile playing at the corners of his lips.
"Really? I've crossed the line..."
Ye Xingran calmly turned to look at him again, her gaze unwavering.
"Doesn't President Fu realize what he's doing right now?"
He himself didn't know what he was doing; perhaps things were different from the very first moment he saw this woman.
He just didn't know it...
"Mr. Fu, it's time to leave work now, according to regulations."
Ye Xingran said softly, her tone revealing a hint of weariness and determination.
Upon hearing these words, Fu Shiyue felt a sudden surge of intense reluctance.
But when he opened his mouth, he found that he didn't know what reason to use to keep the woman in front of him.
Ye Xingran quickly lifted her skirt and walked briskly and firmly toward the door.
Just as her hand touched the cold doorknob, Fu Shiyue's deep and magnetic voice suddenly came from behind her: "Ye Xingran."
The call seemed to have some kind of magic, causing Ye Xingran, who was about to open the door and leave, to freeze instantly.
She turned slightly to the side, a hint of doubt flashing across her beautiful face, and asked, "Mr. Fu, is there anything else you need me to do?"
Fu Shiyue slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on Ye Xingran's graceful back, and a slight ripple stirred in his heart.
When exactly did he begin to develop unusual feelings for this woman? Was it at their first meeting, when he was attracted by her captivating beauty?
Was it when he happened to see her completely absorbed and earnestly working on a task, her focused and captivating expression stunning him? Or perhaps it was in countless unintentional moments...
Gazing at her from afar, an indescribable warmth and peace welled up within me...
However, before Fu Shiyue could speak, Ye Xingran broke the silence first.
"Mr. Fu, if there's nothing else, I'll be going." With that, he pushed open the door and left.
After saying this, Ye Xingran no longer hesitated, resolutely opened the door, and disappeared outside. Fu Shiyue was left standing alone, staring blankly at the closed door, unable to recover for a long time.
She bit her lip lightly, "Fu Shiyue, from the moment I deliberately approached you with an ulterior motive, it was destined that there would be no happy ending between us. Because I have always been the one living in the darkness."
And so, the night passed. In the long, dark night, both harbored complex thoughts, cautiously probing each other, yet neither dared to take that crucial step...
The next day, when Ye Xingran stepped into the company...
Just then, the people around seemed to have suddenly discovered something new and interesting.
All eyes turned to Ye Xingran's direction. Their eyes revealed curiosity and surprise, and they occasionally whispered to each other, seemingly discussing her in hushed tones.
Ye Xingran couldn't help but feel a surge of doubt. She didn't understand why these strangers who came and went were looking at her with such attention.
Could it be because my outfit is different today? Or did I accidentally get something on my face?
She subconsciously looked down and examined herself, but found nothing unusual.
However, their gazes remained fixed on her, as if she possessed some irresistible allure. This made Ye Xingran, who was already somewhat sensitive, even more uneasy.
Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer, "What are you all looking at me for?"
Someone in the crowd snorted coldly.
"Secretary Ye, you really are a hidden talent."
Ye Xingran looked bewildered and was about to ask further when someone handed her a cell phone. The screen displayed several photos. The photos showed a strange man entering Ye Xingran's home.
She recognized the figure all too well; it was Lu Fei.
It was when Lu Fei brought her the antidote that day when she had her attack.
That day, she came out to open the door for Lu Fei.
But Eileen took the photos.
It gave her the opportunity to cause trouble!
The headline was even more jarring—"A senior secretary of the Fu Group had a late-night rendezvous at home with a strange man."
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect Secretary Ye to be like this..."
Her colleagues around her all shook their heads.
How could such a decent girl be so indecent?
At this moment, Fu Shiyue walked into the company and saw everyone surrounding Ye Xingran.
Seeing the anger on her face, I walked over, picked up her phone, and frowned.
Who posted this?
The crowd looked at each other, none daring to respond.
Fu Shiyue said coldly, "No matter who posted it, we will never tolerate those who spread rumors and cause trouble."
He looked at Ye Xingran with a hint of trust in his eyes, "Secretary Ye, come to my office."
Those nearby watched as President Fu and Ye Xingran entered the office together.
"Do you think Secretary Ye is really that kind of person? You can't judge a book by its cover..."
"Secretary Ye is doomed now."
They spoke one word at a time
After saying that, they dispersed and returned to their respective posts.
Meanwhile, Eileen, who was sitting quietly in her own spot, watched the scene unfolding before her with great interest.
Her already somewhat sinister and cunning face now revealed a smug and slightly mocking smile.
Eileen narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze fixed on Ye Xingran not far away, and thought to herself:
"Ye Xingran, Ye Xingran, now that President Fu knows your true colors, let's see if he'll still favor a woman like you! Humph..."
Thinking of this, Eileen couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, a laugh filled with schadenfreude and contempt.
After entering the office,
Fu Shiyue closed the door and said softly, "I believe you."
