In those fleeting moments, Lan Qingqing contemplated resigning from Zong Shi Yan Tuan, yearning to escape her current work environment and the torment of Wu Youyou, that wretched woman. But after much deliberation, she realized she couldn't do it. She had worked hard to get into Zong Shi Yan Tuan and had finally secured her current salary. Zong was one of the top companies in the country; leaving because of Wu Youyou's harassment would be sheer foolishness.
She clenched her fists and pounded them against the floor. She absolutely could not back down now; she had to fight Wu Youyou to the bitter end!
Picking up her phone again, she steeled herself and replied in the group chat, thanking everyone for their concern and expressing gratitude to Wu Youyou for her "care." She added that she would work even harder in the future!
Immediately after, she sent a private message to Wu Youyou, biting her lip as she asked, "Wu Youyou, how did you find out about my family situation? I never discussed it with anyone at work since it's private. It's a bit rude of you to bring my personal matters into the public group."
Wu Youyou replied, "Rude? I'm just looking out for you! Only when everyone knows your true family situation can they help you. What? You don't like what I did? Should I apologize? I thought when you interviewed me earlier, you were also considering things from the leadership's perspective, assuming I was just an inexperienced newcomer. I figured your habit of thinking about the company was something worth learning from. So, I thought I'd consider you this once."
Wu Youyou sent a cute emoji, adding playfully, "Sorry about that! It won't happen again."
Lan Qingqing felt like she was about to explode with anger. If it weren't for the fact that she had just bought this phone recently, she would have thrown it out the window! Wu Youyou was doing this on purpose—deliberately exposing her weaknesses and making her look foolish in front of everyone at the company!
She silently vowed to make Wu Youyou pay for this! Of course, she also wanted to make Tong Le pay! After all, Tong Le was the one who had rejected her request—both Tong Le and Wu Youyou were no good!
The next day, at the cemetery.
Zong Jin stood before his wife Wu Yutong's gravestone while Wu Youyou knelt beside him, arranging a fresh bouquet of flowers.
Wu Youyou spoke up, "Sister loved white roses the most. I remember every time you went to see her after work, you would bring a bouquet of white roses."
Zong Jin gazed at his wife's photo on the gravestone, her sweet and gentle smile reminding him of their days together when they embraced and loved each other. Now they were separated by death.
His eyes turned red; a man who rarely cried found himself unable to overcome the grief of losing his wife. He had loved Wu Yutong deeply since high school and continued to love her even seven years after her passing.
He wasn't happy; it seemed impossible for him to escape the shadow of his wife's death. It felt as if she was his lifeline—without her, he couldn't survive.
Wu Youyou pulled out a tissue from her pocket and handed it to Zong Jin. "I knew you'd cry; I prepared this for you. You're usually so cold-hearted, but every time it's Sister's memorial day, you end up crying."
She tilted her head and looked at him playfully. "Brother-in-law, let's not cry anymore; Sister would feel heartbroken seeing this."
Zong Jin smiled at Wu Youyou's mischievous demeanor. Perhaps this lively girl was what kept him going. If he hadn't promised his wife to take good care of Wu Youyou, he might have followed her into death on that very day.
As the weather turned gloomy, Zong Jin lingered reluctantly at the grave when suddenly a butterfly landed on his shoulder.
Wu Youyou exclaimed in delight, "Look! It's Sister! It must be Sister!"
Zong Jin turned his head to see the beautiful white butterfly resting on him—so pure and lovely.
He looked back at Wu Yutong's gravestone and murmured softly, "I wonder how you're doing in another world—or if you've been reincarnated. Perhaps this life is meant for me to live alone in solitude until Wu Youyou matures enough to choose a suitable partner. Then I can finally rest easy."
Wu Youyou chimed in confidently, "My romantic life doesn't need your concern! If you insist on living alone forever, then I'll keep you company."
"Stop messing around," Zong Jin said. "When you really meet someone who captures your heart, not even ten bulls could pull you back."
Wu Youyou reached out her hand. "Give me your phone; I need to check something."
Zong Jin handed the phone to Wu Youyou, saying, "The password is my wife's birthday." He had always been open with Wu Youyou, with no secrets between them—even when it came to his phone.
