Lan Hui gathered her outstretched thorns and decided to treat the President a little better. 0
 
The next day, the company encountered problems. First, several payments could not be collected, then the promised bank loan did not come through, which directly caused the company's stock to plummet, putting its future in jeopardy. 0
 
President Gu was running around tirelessly every day, and Lan Hui noticed he was losing weight. It felt like something was poking her heart, causing a faint pain. 0
 
In the evening, all the colleagues had left, and only the light in the President's office remained on. 0
 
Lan Hui gently knocked on the door and entered, only to find him lying back in his executive chair in despair. 0
 
"Weren't you supposed to not disturb me?" His voice clearly carried impatience. 0
 
"It's me." Her voice was as soft as a whisper. Seeing him slowly relax his furrowed brow, Lan Hui poured him a cup of coffee. 0
 
"Hui'er, can you let me have some peace?" At some point, his way of addressing her had shifted from Lan Hui to Hui'er. 0
 
In truth, she just wanted to be the girl who stayed by his side during his tough times. Observing President Gu's determination, she silently closed the door behind her. 0
 
A woman with extraordinary charm and dazzling jewelry walked by, exuding an irresistible allure from her hair tips to her eyes. 0
 
Lan Hui watched as she entered the President's office... 0
 
" Qingyan, it's you! Come in!" His voice was filled with surprise. 0
 
It turned out that he didn't want to be alone; he simply wished for someone else to be by his side instead of Lan Hui. 0
 
 
From Lan Hui's perspective, she could just see the two of them embracing each other. 0
 
Lan Hui felt a heaviness in her chest, feeling very uncomfortable, with tears welling up in her eyes and her nose tingling. 0
 
She pouted, her feet not idle as she jogged into the elevator. 0
 
The next day, the woman's background was thoroughly investigated by the company. 0
 
Her name was Qiao Qingyan. Besides being the largest shareholder of the city's biggest company, Tengxiang Company, she was also President Gu's ex-girlfriend. 0
 
In no time, there were eight versions of the story about President Gu and Qiao Qingyan getting back together. 0
 
Ever since President Gu got close to Qiao Qingyan, Lan Hui's mind seemed to short-circuit, making mistakes frequently. 0
 
The manager, who had originally held high hopes for her, was increasingly displeased, and her status in the company plummeted. 0
 
"If you don't take action soon, President Gu's love fortress will be completely occupied by the mistress," her senior Zhang Jie reminded her at a critical moment. 0
 
Privately, they referred to Qiao Qingyan as the mistress. 0
 
"The problem is, how do I take action?" 0
 
Lan Hui gritted her teeth and struck a fierce pose in front of the mirror, only to find it lacked any intimidation. 0
 
Before she figured out a strategy, she decided to follow President Gu for 24 hours and look for an opportunity to sabotage. 0
 
 
All day long, President Gu had been cooped up in his office, staring intently at the computer screen without blinking. 0
 
There must be something going on, Lan Hui thought as she tiptoed over with a document in hand. 0
 
"President Gu, there's a document here for you to sign." She said this while her eyes drifted toward the computer screen. 0
 
Seeing that he was just browsing a few websites, Lan Hui's anxious heart finally settled down. 0
 
"Are you sure it's this document?" 0
 
"Yes, yes!" Lan Hui nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at grain. 0
 
"Are you sure it's this document?" 0
 
President Gu's voice rose an octave, laced with barely contained anger. 0
 
Gathering all her courage, she stepped forward to get a better look at the document. 0
 
In that moment of looking down, her bright red lips accidentally met his! 0
 
Oh no, she had fallen for it again. 0
 
The kiss was intricate and lingering. 0
 
"Hey! It's over." She must have been too caught up in the moment to even hear her colleague knocking on the door. 0
 
 
Fortunately, President Gu timely pulled his mouth away from the Gentle Embrace and kindly reminded her. 0
 
She grabbed the document and fled in a panic. 0
 
Back at her cubicle, she inadvertently glanced at the document and couldn't help but smile. 0
 
What was this document? 0
 
It was a portrait she had drawn of President Gu out of boredom. 0
 
She was glad she ran fast; otherwise, if President Gu saw that she had turned his handsome, extraordinary face into a bun, he would surely tear her apart. 0
 
All afternoon, Lan Hui was lost in that kiss, as if she and President Gu were holding paws and walking into the sacred wedding hall together. 0
 
"Hey! Wake up, it's time to leave work." 0
 
Drooling all over the desk, Lan Hui grabbed her bag and rushed downstairs. 0
 
She dashed to the parking lot and saw President Gu's car speeding out of it. 0
 
Lan Hui caught sight of Qiao Qingyan's face in the passenger seat—the face she dreamed of tearing apart. 0
 
With a sprint, she quickly flagged down a taxi. 0
