Stop There, Daddy

Qin Weiwei and Lu Junhan? How did they get together?

Wen Shuyue looked slightly sullen. The scene of the two nuzzling each other’s ears only became more offending. Her sharp nails buried into the palm of her hand, and the old dark memories came back one after another.

Four years ago, everything that Lu Junhan had done to her had been engraved on her heart.

She hated it so much that she would eat this man’s flesh and drink his blood if possible!

And Qin Weiwei.

Wen Shuyue took a deep breath. Once Qin Weiwei and her were inseparable. Wen Shuyue truly treated Qin Weimei as her best friend, but five years later, here she saw her best friend cuddling intimately with her ex-husband.

Wen Shuyue thought for a second, quickly flipped open her phone and began scanning through information of those days.

Good for them.

On the day she left Yong City, the news of Qin Weiwei and Lu Junhan’s wedding spread throughout the city, at one time becoming the hottest story in Yong City.

Lu Junhan even went so far as to transfer Wen Group’s shares to Qin Weiwei, and his devotion to love was the envy of all- this fairytale love.

Wen Shuyue felt all of her blood froze. She never thought Lu Junhan could use her father’s inheritance as a wedding gift for someone else, as soon as he abandoned her like a pile of dirt.

And this person, was Qin Weiwei, her best friend.

It all made sense.

No wonder Qin Weiwei didn’t speak a word for her after the incident.

No wonder nothing had been heard from her best friend in the past five years, who once told her she wanted to be her lifelong confidant.

Wen Shuyue took a deep breath and tried her best to keep her sanity, watching the man and woman who didn’t notice her walking away. A trace of firmness appeared on her indifferent face.

“Xiaolu.”

“Miss Wen, what can I do for you?”

Xiaolu was Wen Shuyue’s assistant. She worked for her for two years and regarded her as her role model.

In her opinion, Wen Shuyue’s capability helped her rise from a single mother to the CEO of MK China Office. She has a lot to learn from Wen Shuyue, so she always treated her with great respect.

“Anything news about what I asked you to look into last time?”

“Well…” Xiaolu paused and said, rather stumped, “I investigated all the nursing homes in Yong City, but there’s no trace of Lady Wen. I don’t know where Lu Hanjun had placed Lady Wen…”

Xiaolu paused again and reassured eagerly, “I will continue to pursue it. I’ll find Lady Wen even if I have to turn Yongcheng upside down.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Only in the investigation did Xiaolu learn about the grudge between Wen Shuyue and Lu Junhan. Gossip reached her ears, and she couldn’t help feeling outraged by the injustice done to Wen Shuyue.

Lu Junhan is a modern version of Chen Shimei (TN: a Chinese opera character and a byword in China for a heartless and unfaithful man), a merciless scum!

“Okay, investigate ASAP.”

Wen Shuyue urged her before hanging up the phone. She frowned and her heart sank.

When she left back then, she had no other choice but to leave her mother behind in Yong City, but now it had become her weakness. If she couldn’t find her mother’s whereabouts, she wouldn’t have the confidence to deal with Lu Junhan unrestrictedly.

As her eyes were closed, Wen Shuyue’s phone rang again. This time it was her boss from the headquarter calling her personally. After a few words of pleasantries, he went straight to the point, urging her to go all out to get He Siming’s business.

“We’ve got competition?” Wen Shuyue couldn’t help frowning as she heard it.

“This time, our competitor is a local powerhouse, the Lu Group. This man Lu Junhan, notorious in the industry for stopping at nothing to attain his goal, plus his local advantage, is a big threat.”

Lu Junhan was involved?

Wen Shuyue pinched the cell phone harder and paused. Her tone fell cold instantly, “Don’t worry. I will get the deal. I won’t let you down. ”

“Mr. Vincent, we won’t let you down.”

Just as she hung up the phone, Wen baobao’s voice suddenly arose beside Wen Shuyue, catching her by surprise.

“Baobao?”

“Mommy, so you’re going to the office. How can you not take me with you? I’m your loyal little bodyguard.” with a straight face, Wen baobao patted his chest and pouted, “Mommy, you should take me with you on your first day of work. I promise I won’t let you down. ”

Wen Shuyue tried not to laugh, crouched in front of Wen Baobao and patiently coaxed him, “Baobao, it’s mommy’s first day of work, if I take you….”

Though she used to take Wen Baobao to work from time to time when she was in the headquarter, today would be her first day at work after all, and it didn’t seem appropriate to take Baobao there.

But Wen Baobao was a resolved kid. He had made up his mind to go with Wen Shuyue. Arms crossed in front of his chest, he said in all seriousness,” Mommy, I’m following you. I got your back.”

“Stop picking up those boring lines from idol dramas.” Wen Shuyue put her hand on her forehead helplessly, not sure how Wen Baobao learned all these languages. He was unlike a five-year-old at all.

No idea who he inherited it from…

In the end, at Wen Baobao’s strong request, Wen Shuyue could only have said yes, and took him to the branch office.

Only she didn’t expect to walk into the office to see the woman who should have been fired.

“Amy, are you serious? The new president is fierce?”

“More than fierce, completely domineering, and unbearable. Look at that stuck-up attitude. She doesn’t treat people like human beings.” Amy was recklessly badmouthing Wen Shuyue.

The thought of that woman firing her made Amy completely mad.

Lucky for her that she had already made the vice president her sugar daddy, otherwise this time she could really have been kicked out of the company, at the request of Wen Shuyue.

Feeling backed up by the vice president, Amy had no scruples, maliciously distorting her first impression of Wen Shuyue–

“She can get this promotion out of thin air because of her connections. Good for her. An affair with our big boss bought her power to flaunt over our heads. ”

Amy said angrily as if she was telling the truth, and almost rolled her eyes to the sky.

Thinking of Wen Shuyue’s proud appearance, she felt jealous and a little scared.

And the next second, a chilly female voice arose unexpectedly across the air, “Vice President Chen, please come.”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and turned their heads around at the same time. They saw Wen Shuyue standing behind them with a calm face and having dialed the internal line straight up. Not long after, a middle-aged man hurried over, said respectfully, “Miss Wen, you came so soon.”

“I have only one thing to ask. When did our security get so bad that any riff-raff can come inside our company? It makes me wonder about your ability to do your job.”

This made both Amy and Vice President Chen Lai panic.

“Miss Wen, I let Amy stay. She’s my secretary. It was a short notice for a personnel change… It’s hard for me to coordinate my work. Cut her some slack if you would, out of respect for me.”

Out of respect for him?

The corner of Wen Shuyue’s lips lifted slightly, “Mr. Chen, since you like this secretary so much that you can’t even work without her, why don’t you leave with her as well, so as not to affect your work efficiency?”

Chen Lai’s face darkened intensely. After all, he was one of the senior members in the company, and had worked hard for so many years, waiting for the opportunity to be promoted to the top. He did not expect an eye candy would get in the line ahead of him, right before he could score a goal.

“Miss Wen, if you say so, you’re not giving me respect.”
