Hey! The CEO who just scolded me met someone on a blind date.

"The car is in front." Jiang Huaizhou answered casually.

Su Zimu nodded, "It's nice to go for a walk together."

Unexpectedly, the person next to her suddenly let go of her hand, turned his back to her, and bent in front of her with his back hunched.

She was confused by him, "What are you doing?"

"Aren't you tired from walking? I'll carry you." He turned around and looked at her.

Su Zimu: “???”

"Didn't I say I was tired?"

"Isn't your subtext that you're tired and don't want to leave?" He still hunched over.

"I really didn't." Su Zimu stepped forward and pulled him up, "I didn't have any subtext."

Jiang Huaizhou straightened his back and said, "I over-interpreted it."

She was amused by his sudden reaction, "As your secretary, do I often have to read the subtext of your words?"

Noticing her smile, he returned to his cold expression, "Those who are not smart are not worthy to follow me."

……

Work is going smoothly, life is sweet, and everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

However, Ye Chongli came to Su Zimu's house several times, but he didn't see him.

After work that day, he went straight down to the company building.

"Miss Su." Ye Chongli kept a certain distance from her.

When Su Zimu turned around and saw him, he felt like his heart was pulled. It had only been a short time, but Ye Chongli's hair had turned a lot whiter and his complexion didn't seem to be very well.

"Why are you here?" She stood there without moving.

Ye Chongli smiled and said, "I went to your house to look for you many times, but you refused to see me. That's why I came here."

"looking for me?"

"I want to talk to you."

Su Zimu sneered, "What are you talking about? We've already said everything that needed to be said that day."

Ye Chongli opened and closed his lips several times before he said, "Let's find a place to sit down? Or, I'll treat you to a meal!"

His eyes moved slightly, and Su Zimu lowered his eyes, "There is a coffee shop in front, let's go there."

"Good good."

Su Zimu ordered a cappuccino, and she noticed that Ye Chongli only asked for a glass of water.

"I'm old now, and I can't take any caffeine at all." He smiled, "otherwise, I'll be able to stay awake until dawn."

Hearing him say that, Su Zimu almost felt compassion and pinched the handle of the cup with his fingers, "What do you want to ask?"

Ye Chongli didn't expect her to be so direct, and he didn't know how to start the conversation.

"If you have nothing to say, I'll leave first."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Ye Chongli quickly stood up and grabbed her.

"Ms. Su, I know you hate me. Although I don't know whether you are Wanqiu's daughter or any other relationship, I want to know her situation. Where is she now? Is she doing well?"

Su Zimu felt disgusted, and he suppressed his anger, "Why do you have to be so hypocritical? Since you've abandoned her, why do you still care about her life or death?"

"I didn't abandon her," Ye Chongli explained, "she abandoned me."

Su Zimu: “…”

Too lazy to talk to him anymore, she said coldly: "She's dead."

I don’t know if it was because this result was hard for him to accept, or if he was just acting, but Ye Chongli didn’t say a word for a long time, his expression was dull.

"died?"

"Yes, dead."

"When did it happen?" he murmured.

“More than 20 years ago.”

Perhaps this result was even more difficult to accept. Tears welled up in Ye Chongli's eyes. "How could it be, how could he be gone at such a young age?"

Su Zimu sneered, "Isn't this better? It will prevent your ugly deeds from being known to others."

He didn't argue, "Does she have any children?"

"What? You still want to harm someone else's child?" Su Zimu said mercilessly, "I don't have any children."

Ye Chongli sobbed, "This doesn't even give me a chance to make amends!"

"You did nothing wrong, what compensation do you have?" She said with sarcasm on her face.

He wiped his tears and said, "Ms. Su, you are right. I shouldn't have concealed my marital status. I was wrong. Wanqiu is such a simple girl. She would trust me unconditionally."

Belated affection is worse than grass.

"Okay, stop crying." Su Zimu said, looking around and handed him another tissue. "People around me will think I'm bullying an elderly person."

Seeing that he had calmed down, she stood up and said, "I'm leaving now. Is it okay for you to go back alone?"

Ye Chongli nodded slightly.

Ye Chongli let go of his hand only after she left. There was a slightly curly long hair in it, which he had taken from her sleeve when he pulled her just now.

He carefully put the hair into the pocket he had prepared in advance, and put away the coffee cup used by Su Zimu.

If she is really Xu Wanqiu's daughter, then this age is exactly the same as when he and Xu Wanqiu were together...

Having said that, sometimes when I look at her carefully, I always feel that there is a bit of my own shadow in her eyebrows and eyes.

Soon, the mystery will be revealed.

*

That morning, when Su Zimu was checking the report, there was a rapid sound of high heels. Just as she looked up, a cup of liquid was splashed at her from the front.

She was caught off guard and her face suddenly felt burning with pain.

If she hadn't seen the cup that belonged to her in the other person's hand, she would even suspect that sulfuric acid had been thrown on her face.

She had left the cup of coffee for about ten minutes and hadn't even taken a sip yet.

The people around were also in a state of confusion, and no one spoke for a while.

Su Zimu raised her hand and wiped her face. She didn't recognize the elegantly dressed woman opposite her at all!

"Ma'am," she said calmly, "can you find someone to throw it at? I don't even know you."

The woman opposite loosened her grip, and with a snap, Su Zimu's cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Are you Su Zimu?"

Su Zimu frowned, "Yes."

"Then I didn't make a mistake."

Someone reacted and handed over a tissue. Su Zimu wiped his face and said, "I don't know you."

"Humph." The woman sneered, "You vixen, you're so young, and you like being someone's mistress, but you want to find an old man who can be your father. Shame on you!"

As soon as these words were spoken, people around began to talk.

"I've never seen a wife catch a mistress."

"Yes, it's so fucking exciting."

"But maybe the other party has recognized the wrong person? Manager Su doesn't look like someone who would do such a thing."

"Yes, she has a ring on her hand."

"Who knows where the other ring is? Besides, has any of you seen her husband?"

The crowd shook their heads.

"Oh, I never expected that."

……

Su Zimu heard all the discussions around her. She secretly clenched her fists, but her face remained calm. "Who are you talking about? You are just talking nonsense. I am going to sue you for defamation."

"I didn't expect you to have such courage." The woman threw out a photo, "Is it you?!"

Someone who was nearby leaned over to take a look and saw that the person in the photo was Su Zimu. There was an old man sitting opposite her, holding her hand.
