Chapter 6 - Shattered Illusions

When Su Yiran thought of Li Chengyan, a trace of regret flashed through her heart. She regretted that she had spoken too harshly that day and said that he would never be able to reach Gu Zeyan's level in his life.

Looking back on those words now, they were quite hurtful to men's self-esteem.

Especially comparing him with another man and criticizing him would make anyone feel uncomfortable.

Su Yiran took out her cell phone from under the pillow. She thought Li Chengyan would send her an apology message, but the phone was as silent as a chicken.

How is that possible? Is it down?

She checked her phone bill and found that there was still a balance.

Li Chengyan actually didn't send her a message or call her.

Su Yiran inexplicably felt aggrieved, her nose felt sore, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

She suddenly wanted to find Li Chengyan and question him. Why did he just leave and ignore her like that? He knew she was afraid of thunder but he didn't send her a message to comfort her.

After three years of relationship, he let go just like that. If it was another woman who was greedy for his money and made him pay more, would he not be so determined to leave?

Su Yiran felt that her best friend was right. She asked too little from Li Chengyan, which resulted in her having no weight in his heart.

She huddled in bed, wiping her tears, and finally couldn't help but dial the familiar number, but all she got in response was a busy tone.

Su Yiran suddenly remembered that when they broke up yesterday, Li Chengyan blocked her contact information in front of her.

Su Yiran felt that if she continued like this, she would soon develop breast hyperplasia, and Li Chengyan was really going to piss her off to death.

She decided not to forgive him easily, even if he gave her expensive jade earrings, she would not turn back easily!

Su Yiran hardly slept in the middle of the night as she listened to the rain and thunder. The next day, she came to the company with big dark circles under her eyes.

She had just turned on the computer when the CEO's special assistant Xu Li called her from the internal line.

"Su Yiran, yesterday I asked you to organize the information that Ms. Mu would use for his business trip. What did you organize?"

Su Yiran was confused. Did she organize it wrong?

"Assistant Xu, is there any problem?"

"How dare you ask? President Mu is very angry. Go to the CEO's office and explain yourself!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Yiran felt like a mountain was pressing down on her head. She was most afraid of going to the president's office because every time she went there she would be scolded by that female devil.

Su Yiran recalled yesterday's work and couldn't figure out anything.

She came to the CEO's office on the top floor with a nervous mood. After knocking on the door a few times, she heard a voice.

"Enter!"

When Su Yiran entered the room, she was hit by a pile of documents.

"Did you submit this garbage?"

Su Yiran squatted down and picked up the papers scattered on the floor, and replied guiltily,

"Yes."

Mu Shiyu, the president of Gu Corporation, is a well-known female devil in the industry. She is cold and aloof in character, but decisive in the business world. Since taking over Gu Corporation, she has led the company into the top 50 of the Fortune Global 500 in just three years.

All entrepreneurs in the circle are afraid of her, let alone Su Yiran, a small secretary.

Su Yiran felt a strong sense of oppression at this moment.

Mu Shiyu was flipping through the documents in her hand and asked without even looking up,

"What's your name? How much does the company pay you per month?"

Su Yiran answered with a breath,

"Su Yiran, six thousand five hundred after tax."

Mu Shiyu glanced at her special assistant Xu Li and said concisely,

"You can't get good products at a low price. Even the ready-made documents can be printed incorrectly. It seems that they can't do anything well. Just fire them! Recruit a capable person. Salary is not a problem. Don't save me money on hiring people."

Su Yiran's heart choked and she was about to cry. In the current employment environment, it is not easy to find a job, let alone one in such a large company.

" Ms Mu, I will do my job well, please give me another chance!"

Mu Shiyu signed the document without looking up.

"Why should I trust you?"

Su Yiran bit her lip, unable to think of any advantages she had for a long time, so she looked at Xu Li for help.

Xu Li spoke up.

"Ms. Mu, there is still an hour and a half left before the flight takes off. It takes 35 minutes for our company to drive to the airport, and we have to reserve time for traffic jams on the road. You now have at most five minutes to handle your work."

Mu Shiyu finally put down the documents in her hand and looked up at the person standing on the ground, then changed her words.

"Let's talk about it when we get back. Please put these plans away for me to look at on the way. Let's set off now."

Su Yiran breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little scared when she returned to her workstation. She silently prayed that the evil woman would forget about this incident when she returned from her business trip.

The more Su Yiran thought about it, the more scared she became. Ifit weren't for Special Assistant Xu speaking up for her, she would have been fired on the spot!

She couldn't help but want to find someone to complain to, she urgently needed comfort.

Su Yiran hid in the stairwell and subconsciously found Li Chengyan'snumber in her mobile phone. Only then did she react and find Gu Zeyan's number and dial it.

She called once, twice, and three times, but the only response she got was a cold, robotic voice.

Su Yiran felt aggrieved, but Li Chengyan would never ignore her calls, and he would give her enough emotional value when she needed it.

Thinking of this, Su Yiran missed Li Chengyan a little. She wondered what he was busy with. Was he so anxious about their breakup that he couldn't continue writing code?

She opened Li Chengyan's chat room on WeChat, hesitated for a long time, and then edited a message and sent it.

[Li Chengyan, can you come pick me up after get off work today? And bring me a cup of milk tea from the shop near your company!]

After sending the message, Su Yiran suddenly felt a little regretful. Would it be too easy for Li Chengyan if she compromised first?

After all, he failed to apologize formally.

Su Yiran thought of her best friend's words. If she bowed her head first, Li Chengyan would think that she was a woman who was easy to manipulate. She would always be the weaker one in front of him and would never be taken seriously.

But now the information cannot be withdrawn.

Forget it, I'll just take Li Chengyan's car once and give him a discount.

At night, make him kneel at the head of the bed and recite the moral ethics of a man!

On the other hand, Li Chengyan did feel a little more anxious, but it was not because of his breakup with Su Yiran.

Today is the eighth day of the wedding countdown!

Where would he find a woman to marry?

Li Chengyan analyzed all the single women in his address book but couldn't find any suitable candidate for a quick marriage.

He couldn't just conjure up a woman out of thin air. His mother called him and asked him to go home after get off work, and specifically asked him to bring his fiancée with him.

Li Chengyan felt overwhelmed.

As he was hesitating, he received a WeChat reminder on his phone.

Li Chengyan opened WeChat and saw that the message was from Su Yiran, with a face full of question marks.

What is this young lady looking forward to?

Li Chengyan was editing the information in the dialog box. He had to make it clear.
