The north wind was whistling. The atmosphere was desolate.

Yi Duanfang sighed and said, “Sorry, I shouldn’t mention Weixi.”

Chen Kexin shook her head, saying, “You know, I can’t help thinking about… but…”

Yi Duanfang nodded and said, “I got it…”

They walked slowly along a path with green pine trees. The scent of flowers assailed the nostrils. The atmosphere was unspeakably dull.

“How is he? When was he demoted?” Chen Kexin asked nervously after thinking carefully.

Yi Duanfang looked up at the blue sky, saying casually, “It’s not very long. It’s the next day after you moved back home. Until now, ho-ho… it’s been 12 days?”

Chen Kexin spoke nothing. She never thought that Wang Weixi would get into an awkward position because of her. She suddenly understood why Wang Weixi was unhappy when he was promoted. “He knew he was promoted because of me. From the beginning, he has never thought to depend on me. However, I just increase trouble for him.”

“Do you know that Weixi comes here every day?” Yi Duanfang bent to pick up a leaf and asked Chen Kexin without looking at her.

Chen Kexin kept silent.

“That’ll explain it. I guess you know that too. Then, I have nothing to say. Perhaps Keren is right. If there is really someone who can make you happy, as your friend, I’ll be happy too,” said Yi Duanfang frustratedly.

Chen Kexin stopped there.

Yi Duanfang turned to look at her.

Chen Kexin shook her head and said coldly, “He is irreplaceable in my eyes… No one can give me that happiness. Lan Xiao can’t, and no one else can. I just can’t forgive him…” With this, she went on walking.

Yi Duanfang shook his head helplessly, followed her up, and said, “Even if you don’t need a husband, your baby needs a father, right?”

“Mother is enough…” Chen Kexin said stubbornly.

Yi Duanfang sighed deeply and said with mixed feelings, “Kexin, I never knew you could be so stubborn.”

Chen Kexin turned away and playfully stuck her tongue out, saying, “I never thought you would be so serious.”

Yi Duanfang coughed twice and said awkwardly, “Sometimes, people need to be serious. Hehe…”

Chen Kexin laughed and turned back. They continued moving on.

…

“Unexpectedly, you can lie.” In the hall, Chen Keren sat opposite to Lan Xiao. Two cups of hot tea were put on a tea table.

Lan Xiao said with a smile, “I can’t do anything about it.”

“Actually, I know what you’re thinking. I only hope Yi Duanfang not to speak something strange.” Chen Keren took a sip of tea and said in a bad mood.

Lan Xiao smiled faintly. “I never thought that you and he would be together.”

Chen Keren glared at him. “What’s there to be surprised at?”

“Are you shy? Ho-ho…”

…

Another two calm days passed.

Everybody was busy.

In the morning, Chen Kexin walked inside the villa and felt somewhat lonely.

It was said that Chen Derong would come back one week later. Chen Keren got busy with her own work.

“Good morning, miss.” Out of the hall, Chen Kexin looked up at the grey sky. The atmosphere was very dull. She turned back and smiled gently at Little Six, who stood there, saying, “Good Morning!”

Seeing someone watering flowers, she went over and asked with a smile, “Uncle Li, can I water the flowers?”

Uncle Li looked at Chen Kexin with some surprise. She took over his sprinkler and watered the flowers carefully. Her infant face beamed with satisfaction.

Little Six stood there and looked at Chen Kexin lovingly.

The housekeeper walked up and looked at Chen Kexin, saying helplessly, “Since the lady came back, she hasn’t been herself lately. She never left the room. But now, she not only comes out to have a walk but also help servants to do things. She even cleans up the room. Alas… I don’t know if she developed these habits in that family.” After saying this, he turned away.

Little Six lowered his head and thought. He frowned slightly and left silently.

In this city, someone’s feelings were doomed to be buried in the heart.

…

“Bang!” Yi Duanfang angrily slammed a stack of papers down on the desk. He pounded the table and stood up, “Lan Ling, go to tell the despicable president that I quit! Why do you send all the papers to me?”

Lan Ling stood there and said contemptuously with her mouth lifting slightly upward, “Director Yi, when will you change your temper?”

Yi Duanfang snorted and thought, “She’s only a president assistant. How can she be so arrogant today? Every time she sees me, she puts on a fierce look, as if I owe her family. It’s… so annoying!”

“Whether I change my temper or not is not your business.” Yi Duanfang sat down angrily and looked at her scornfully.

Lan Ling shook her head helplessly and said, “You really don’t know? How could you be so calm?”

Yi Duanfang asked with curiosity, “What are you talking about?”

Lan Ling held the forehead and said seriously, “He’s resigned.”

…

He instantly stopped thinking as if there were a void around him.

“In the President Office this morning.”

…

There seemed to be a buzz in his head.

“The President has agreed. His wage is settled. Now, he is about to leave.”

…

Yi Duanfang bounced off his office chair and asked eagerly, “Now?!”

Lan Ling nodded. “Now. Oh no, he may have gone.”

…

Yi Duanfang was dumbfounded for a while before rushing out.

Now in the company, no one seemed to be concentrated on their work. Everyone was whispering.

Wang Weixi’s original position was vacant.

“Damn!” Yi Duanfang fiercely glared at those people and rushed out of the company.

However, there was no sign of Wang Weixi.

Yi Duanfang took out his mobile phone and called Wang Weixi. As expected, his phone was turned off.

Yi Duanfang was very anxious. On second thoughts, he turned back and entered the company.

“Wang Weixi, an eyesore, finally left. At the sight of him, I feel uncomfortable.” As he entered the hall, a sharp voice came through.

Yi Duanfang frowned and stood there.

Another golden-haired woman said while wearing perfume, “Right, I hate good-for-nothing gigolos most. Hum, Wang Weixi not only lived off a woman but also fooled around with another woman. Alas, have you heard that Tong Siqi was released? It’s said that it’s Miss Chen’s idea. How good a woman she is! How can she have a crush on the jerk Wang Weixi?” Without noticing the quiet atmosphere around her, the woman chattered without stop.

Everyone was scared and looked at the overheated Yi Duanfang, who clenched his fists.

The golden-haired woman seemingly had not said enough. She smelt her arms and said, “I guess Miss Chen is stupid. How was she unable to perceive that her husband was cheating? She foolishly did the wedding dress for others. She hanged around that woman every day. Now, she let that woman go. Alas, I doubt if she is a lesbian.”

After she said this, she unfolded the mirror and looked into the mirror. As a result… She saw Yi Duanfang who stood behind her with a long face.

Her hands suddenly trembled, and the mirror almost fell to the ground. She turned away in fear and said, shuddering. “Director Yi… When did you come back?”

Yi Duanfang knitted his eyebrows and asked severely, “Did you say these words by yourself, or is there someone who taught you that?”

Everybody went back to their seats and pretended to work carefully. However, they looked at the irate Yi Duanfang with fear. At least they had never seen him like this.

The golden-haired woman looked pale and watched Yi Duanfang in panic.

“Hadn’t your parents told you that you should think before speaking when they gave birth to you? Hadn’t your teacher told you that speaking and acting was different from eating and shiting? No wonder that you haven’t married. What a disgusting woman!” After Yi Duanfang said this in one shot, the woman cried and dared not retort.

Yi Duanfang looked around all the people and said unpleasantly. “You should bear in mind. You should ask yourself Weixi’s capacity. Don’t gossip it. If you’re capable, you can take the seat! Why is this position still empty? You should know that, right? You’re just jealous. Do your job honestly.”

Everyone was silent.

Yi Duanfang felt annoyed and glared at the golden-haired woman. “You, keep in mind that if I hear you gossip again, I’ll beat you into Luo Yufeng.”

Then he turned back to leave.

As he turned back, he saw the President.

He gave a contemptuous look at the President and ignored his attentive smile. He was ready to go back to the office and pack up. Then, he would look for Wang Weixi.

The President blocked him and grinned, “Duanfang, are you in a bad mood?”

Yi Duanfang said nothing and thought if he was blind.

“Never mind. I came here to tell you that our executive board unanimously recommends you to be the general manager.”

Everyone was stunned. Although everyone expected it, they never thought that the President would tell him personally, instead of delivering him the notification of personnel department.

Yi Duanfang snorted, “Sorry, I’m not interested in the position. Oh, no. I’m wrong. I’m disappointed in the company. Sorry, I quit!”

Wow!

Suddenly, a heated public discussion was created in the whole company.

The President was petrified. Before him, Yi Duanfang left with vigorous strides.
