Outside the door, Chu Yichen stopped in his tracks. His eyes were dark and murky and his lips curled into a dangerous smile.
Li Cheng pretended that he had heard nothing. Indeed, only Li An’an dared to be so presumptuous before CEO Chu.
Chu Yichen pushed the door open and walked in. The office fell silent.
Li An’an felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She was not sure if Chu Yichen had overheard what she just said.
“Shopping during the day and sleeping with me at night?” Chu Yichen sat back in his chair and said sinisterly. “Are you sure?”
Chu Yichen seemed to have completely forgotten that Gu Na was in the office. He locked his gaze on Li An’an.
Li An’an was stumped. Damn it, he actually heard that?
Li Cheng walked in again. “CEO, I’ve already checked. There are no triplets in the village.”
Gu Na was shocked. “That’s impossible. By the way, the three children said that their father was going to take them to work overseas!”
At this point, she covered her mouth. Previously she had said that she suspected that the child was Chu Yichen’s. Now, she was saying that the child’s father was taking them to where he worked. Wasn’t this contradictory?!
Chu Yichen’s gaze became even more dangerous as he passed the ruthless order, “Cut off our investment in the Gu family’s resort! Cancel the current collaboration project! We won’t be working together in the future.”
Gu Na cried out in fear. “Yichen, I had only been asking around for information relating to the hospital. Your punishment is too severe! You can’t treat me like this.”
Li Cheng immediately acted and called the relevant departments. Butler Chu entered. “Young Master, Madam has returned. She already knows about Miss Gu and wants you to bring her over!”
Butler Chu waited respectfully outside the door. He looked at Li An’an with a complicated gaze. Madam already knew about Li An’an and might also meet her.
Li An’an panicked. Chu Yichen’s mother was back. She was here to protect Gu Na, so Gu Na would be fine!
Chu Yichen got up from his chair, walked past Li An’an and left the office.
Gu Na smiled and hurriedly wiped her tears. She took out her cosmetics from her bag to touch up her makeup. She must not leave a bad impression on Auntie!
After Chu Yichen left, the atmosphere in the office became much more relaxed. Li An’an was at a loss. The three kids had not been discovered for the time being, but Chu Yichen’s glance at her before he left made her uneasy.
Why not just run away and take the three babies somewhere else?
Suddenly, she thought of Li Xinyi and Liu Luhua. No, she was not willing to leave just like that. Previously, she saw them going to the orphanage. What if they adopted another child? Another child would end up with fate like hers.
“An’an, you’re back. That’s great. I was worried that you’d be scolded by the CEO so badly that you’d go into hiding.” Xiao Zhang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Li An’an.
The latter asked, “Have you seen Bess?”
“I think she’s in her office. Why are you looking for her? Hey, let me tell you, don’t go. She’s very arrogant! Don’t look for her unless you have to.”
“I need to.”
“Hey, I can help you if you need it. Don’t go and be bullied by her.” Everyone in the company knew that Bess was arrogant because she was favored.
Before Xiao Zhang could finish, Li An’an had already rushed into Bess’s office. Bess was changing her clothes. She was going to the Chu residence too. A smug expression appeared on her face when she saw Li An’an entering. She knew that Li An’an was here to take revenge. She had pushed her into Chu Yichen’s office earlier on. Judging from her disheveled state, she must have been taught a lesson by the CEO.
“I’m accompanying CEO Chu to see Madam and Sir. You have the guts to attack me?” Before she could finish her sentence, Li An’an had thrown the content of a bottle of iodine over her, splashing the liquid over her suit. She had taken it out of the first aid kit earlier on. Initially she had wanted to give an eye for an eye, but it didn’t look good when women fought! She decided this was more refined..
