When Shuyao walked into the office, Ji Linchuan was still buried in the pile of documents. He thought she was here to make peace, but she opened her mouth with: "Manager Ji, I'm here to pay back the card." Ji Linchuan frowned, "Why, you're bringing up that matter again?" Wen Yuxi understood immediately when she heard the words "pay back the card". She looked Shuyao up and down and sneered: "Shuyao, I've taken a closer look these past few days. You and I really look alike. No wonder the director always asked you to be my stand-in." "But, a fake is still a fake." She smiled brightly, but every word hurt Shuyao's heart. "Shut up!" Ji Linchuan shouted. Wen Yuxi was not to be outdone and continued: "Today I know that Brother Linchuan is so affectionate to me." She still put on the posture of a young lady and refused to give in. Shuyao repeated: "Please Manager Jigive me my contract." Although the contract was terminated, she insisted on having the contract, which meant that she and him could break up completely. "Are you ordering me?" Ji Linchuan looked very unhappy. "You are an 18th-tier actor. You should be content to stay in the Ji Family for so many years!" Shuyao glanced at Ji Linchuan's expression and said coldly: "Miss Wen, you are a famous Best Actress, so you naturally can't compare with a small person like me. But I want to tell you that all these years, I have earned my money by myself!" "Although I am not as good as you, my status is humble, and I am even just a stand-in, but I am much better than those who rely on family background!" "You..." Wen Yuxi was shaking with anger, and Ji Linchuan's voice came faintly: "When did you become so sharp-tongued?" He was surprised at her recent resistance, no longer as gentle and submissive as before. He was very annoyed. No woman had ever dared to treat him like this.
His gaze fell on the suitcase beside her.
"Are you leaving?" His anger surged even higher.
"Good riddance. This position, Mrs. Ji, was originally mine."
Wen Yuxi carried herself like a spoiled heiress.
"Lin Secretary, if you don't get Miss Wen out of here in five minutes, you'll pack your things and leave too!"
Lin Secretary approached cautiously, his voice trembling with visible humility as he said,
"Miss Wen, please step outside to rest."
They were all ancestors; he couldn't afford to offend any of them.
Miss Wen's gaze was like a knife, almost piercing him. He broke out in a cold sweat.
As soon as Wen Yuxi stepped out and closed the door behind her, he let out a sigh of relief.
Ji Linchuan reached out and pulled Shuyao into his embrace, pressing her onto his lap.
Shuyao felt extremely uncomfortable and tried to get up, but he held her tightly.
"You're not allowed to leave without my permission."
" manager Ji, have you forgotten? I'm just a substitute."
"Be more confident; you've been a substitute for quite some time now."
He intentionally provoked her.
She fell for it, her breathing quickening, her face flushed red, fists clenched tightly.
"Is that all you've got?"
Seeing her puffed-up expression made him both angry and amused.
In the next moment, Shuyao suddenly swayed and fainted in Ji Linchuan's arms, her face pale and devoid of color.
A pang of alarm shot through Ji Linchuan, realizing he had spoken too harshly.
Shuyao felt her head heavy, as if someone was calling her name in the distance.
In the car, Ji Linchuan grew flustered and didn't dare to delay as he rushed her to the nearest hospital.
Secretary Lin was driving the car.
" manager Ji, there are some things I'm not sure whether I should say."
"When did you become so talkative?"
Secretary Lin glanced out the window, confirming that Wen Yuxi had walked far away.
"I heard that Miss Shuyao has been acting a bit strangely these days; she threw away all the photos of you from her home."
Ji Linchuan steadied himself, adjusting Shuyao's position in his arms to make her more comfortable.
Secretary Lin paused for a moment, observing Ji Linchuan's expression in the rearview mirror.
"Go on."
"Aunt Liu said she's been crying a lot lately, often waking up in the middle of the night, talking nonsense."
"It might... it might be because of you and Miss Wen."
Secretary Lin's voice lowered; he was uncertain about his master's feelings.
"With Miss Shuyao's personality, you need to pay more attention. If you're too indifferent, be careful she might leave."
"You’re really chatty today!" Ji Linchuan interrupted impatiently.
Secretary Lin had no choice but to fall silent.
