That was the diamond ring I pawned a few days ago to save Wenya.
As far as I’m concerned!
It no longer holds any meaning.
After all, Gu Yuanzhou has already betrayed me, betrayed his own promise.
I feel no attachment to this trinket.
“Yes, this is what I pawned! I exchanged it for money to redeem Wenya for Su Peisheng!
“So, you stole this from Song Yun?”
“Don’t make it sound so ugly, what stealing, I am Song Yun!”
Indeed, the first time I mentioned the matter of reincarnation, Ding Yinuo was there, I had no reason to hide it from him. However, Ding Yinuo did not believe it.
He redeemed that ring.
“Guess, what would happen to you if Gu Yuanzhou sees this?”
I gave Ding Yinuo a glance, “Do you think I am Song Yun?”
“You are you, how could you be her?”
“Believe it or not, I need to use the bathroom now, could you please step out?”
Ding Yinuo gritted his teeth,
“Never get drunk again! Otherwise, I’ll give this diamond ring to Gu
Yuanzhou!”
“Ding Yinuo, after all these years, can’t you change? Always confronting me, is it fun?”
I have indeed been a bit unrestrained lately.
In my past life, I often went to karaoke and drank with Wenya, but I never got drunk.
Because I had children back then, I wanted to be a good mother.
And now, I’ve lost all my beliefs in life.
If it wasn’t for the need to uncover the truth about the fire and seek justice for the children, I probably wouldn’t even have the interest to live.
I have long been indifferent to life and death.
I didn’t pay much attention to Ding Yinuo’s excessive concern.
In my view, he simply wanted to use me against Gu Yuanzhou.
At this moment, after talking a bit more, when I looked up again, Ding Yinuo was staring at me with a complicated look.
But, he said nothing, just stared at me for several more seconds and then turned and left.
My phone rang, it was a text message alert.
I picked up my phone from the bed and looked at it, it was a text from Ye Mengyan.
“Xiaoyun, do you have any free time? I want to discuss the details of the fashion week with you!’
I flatly refused her,
“Sorry, I am busy recently, no time.”
It seemed that Ye Mengyan thought of something, she was typing for a long time, then deleted it.
After a long while, she sent another text,
“Whenever you’re free, let’s meet, I have a lot to tell you!’
1 stared at the text message for a long time, without sending a word back.
If I were a man, I might enjoy Ye Mengyan’s simplicity.
But I’m not…
Ever since she said those words, I have distanced myself from her at heart.
From now on, I’m afraid I don’t want to get close to her anymore.
Just arrived at the office in the morning.
1 saw Gu Yuanzhou sitting in front of the office in his suit and shoes, his hair neatly combed, meticulous.
The faint morning light came in through the window, enveloping him.
Even when he was busy working, his presence was still very strong.
But for some reason.
Gu Yuanzhou seemed so alien and distant to me at this moment.
As though everything between him and I has become a distant dream.
1 think, from now on, I will no longer mistakenly address him as my husband.
Only when I walked closer, did I see that he was not working.
There was a picture file on his desk and it contained a photo of me from my previous life.
His deep eyes were fixated on the woman in the picture.
He even reached out to gently stroke the woman’s cheek in the photograph.
What is he thinking?
Hesitant to let go of his child?
Can’t forget me?
Perhaps sensing my approach, he nonchalantly closed the photograph and cleared his throat with a cough.
Then he opened a contract to cover up his zoning out.
1 made a cup of coffee for him.
Then casually asked him a question.
“Mrs. Gu is a very accomplished woman! She was so young, it’s such a shame!” Gu Yuanzhou glanced at me.
Perhaps because of the close proximity, I noticed for the first time how pale his face looked.
But his eyes were still deep, he said after a long silence,
“She was the most accomplished woman I have ever met!”
Since he was finally willing to talk to me about the past, I asked another question.
“It seems that you two had a good relationship?”
“Ayun was a good wife, a good mother…”
Gu Yuanzhou’s voice was low and husky, seemingly filled with endless sorrow.
“Ah, life and death are unpredictable, President Gu, it’s not worth mourning too much!”
Gu Yuanzhou gave a bitter smile.
He pinched the space between his eyebrows, “Some people, for life…”
Simple words, if you break them apart, I could understand them.
But out together, I don’t understand.
Looking at him, it seemed as if he had a deep affection for his deceased wife.
But then, thinking of Ye Mengyan’s words about how they had been together secretly for years, my heart immediately went cold again.
While I was in a daze, I heard a rush of high-heeled shoes approaching.
Then, a competent woman in a suit walked up to Gu Yuanzhou.
It was Annie.
Annie gave me a disdainful glance and then turned to Gu Yuanzhou with a smile.
“President Gu, how are you… how is your recovery coming along? Ah, when you were in the hospital, I came to visit a few times, but someone always blocked me, I couldn’t see you. Actually, a lot of the employees in the company are very concerned about you.”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t even lift his head, he replied,
“It’s just a minor injury, I’m quite alright now.”
Annie immediately laughed flirtatiously,
“President Gu indeed has divine protection, immunity to all diseases, you look very healthy now. The fact that you have recovered is a great fortune for all of us employees.”
“What’s the matter?”
Annie promptly presented a document,
“This task used to be handled by Luo Zizhou, and now that Assistant Song has taken over, do you think it’s appropriate for her to handle this?”
Although I completed a task neatly last time and won Gu Yuanzhou’s trust.
And managed to shut Annie up for the moment, but she has not given up on pushing me out.
It seems like she’s trying to pull me down from this position.
On the surface, she would greet me with a smile when she saw me, but in fact, she’s been saying quite a bit of nasty stuff about me and has been going behind my back to cause trouble.
From her expression, I can already sense that she has set a huge trap for me.
Gu Yuanzhou took the document, glanced at it, then passed it to me, “Give this project to you!’
I took a look at it, sure enough, it was a difficult task, and it’s even related to
Ding Yinuo.
I looked up at Annie, she was also looking at me triumphantly,
“If you’re not able to handle it, you can ask Assistant Luo in the security department for advice, he’ll help you!’
Just as I was considering how to respond to Annie, unexpectedly Gu Yuanzhou spoke up..
