Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shangguan Ning had no idea that Tang Yun had been visiting the enterprise, every single day.
It was the busiest ti of the year, at Jingsheng Enterprise. Everyone was busy focusing on work. Tang Yun had attracted a great deal of attention by standing there. Shangguan Ning could imagine how all the employees must be gossiping about this, behind closed doors.
This was beginning to affect the day to day working of the enterprise, especially the won, who wouldn’t stop discussing it. Just like Mi Xiaoxiao.
She turned to Mi Xiaoxiao and said with a smile, “It is alright. I’ll handle it. You get back to work. What are you worried about? It’s not as if she’s eyeing your husband.”
“Forget . It’s you I’m worried about. When are you getting divorced? Get divorced as soon as possible and just marry the President. I’ve had enough of this woman. She’s beginning to irritate .”
Shangguan Ning didn’t have ti to argue with her. She walked to the front desk.
She didn’t talk with Tang Yun, but spoke with Anna, the receptionist, directly. “Why is the guest not made to sit in the guestroom? What is the point of making her stand here?”
Anna was startled. Shangguan Ning usually spoke with her in a friendly tone, but she sounded quite serious today, even a bit formidable.
She thought for a mont and understood what Shangguan Ning ant. Shangguan Ning had made an indirect jibe at Tang Yun and wanted her to leave.
Anna looked at Ning helplessly. She spoke with Shangguan Ning softly, but was audible enough for Tang Yun to be able to listen in.
“Assistant Shangguan, Ms. Tang doesn’t want to be seated in the guest room. She only wants to wait here. My repeated requests to her have yielded no result.”
Only now did Shangguan Ning turn to Tang Yun and say politely, “Ms. Tang, please wait in the guest room if you are waiting for soone. Jingsheng always treats special guests with utmost respect. You shouldn’t be standing at the reception, otherwise soone would think you are a random saleswoman.”
Tang Yun flushed with embarrassnt, but she didn’t want to lose her cool in front of the staff. She wouldn’t give up so easily.
“Assistant Shangguan, I am your President’s fiancée. He asked
to co here today. You have the cheek to talk with
in this way? You’d better watch out. My husband might just give you a pay cut.”
Tang Yun was good-looking and had a good personality. Even her anger added to her beauty. Anyone would fall for her charms.
Shangguan Ning’s heart felt rather uncomfortable, hearing Tang Yun use the word ‘husband’ for Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen was her husband. Only she could call him “husband”. Tang Yun’s way of addressing him made her shiver.
She scolded Jing Yichen a thousand tis, in her heart – he was responsible for all this ss, why should she be the one to clean it up. How unreasonable!
But Shangguan Ning would not allow Tang Yun to have the last word.
“I am so sorry, Ms. Tang. I didn’t get any such instructions from the President. So you may please leave now.”
She said as she turned to Anna, “Get the security, and see Ms. Tang out. We don’t want any more sales people just walking in here.”
Four tall and strong security personnel arrived imdiately. They held Tang Yun by her arms and were about to lead her out. It didn’t matter if she was the President’s fiancée.
Tang Yun was livid with anger.
She wouldn’t let all her effort go to waste. She refused to be driven off by so random security staff.
After showing up at the Enterprise, every single day, for the past week, she had finally managed to et Shangguan Ning. She mustn’t waste this opportunity.
Just as the security guards were leading her out, she said to Shangguan Ning, “I need to talk with you. Get them off !”
Shangguan Ning waved her hands and stopped the security guards.
She hadn’t wanted to pay any attention to her, but there were so many bystanders watching them. Apparently, Tang Yun’s repeated visits at the Enterprise had seriously distracted the staff from their work.
This was Jing Yichen’s family business. She didn’t want Tang Yun to ruin it by creating a scene, so she nodded in acknowledgent and turned away.
Tang Yun glared at the security personnel. She then adjusted her outfit and followed Shangguan Ning into the guest room.
When they entered the guest room, Shangguan Ning poured a glass of water for herself, but didn’t offer one to Tang Yun. Instead, she said, “Ms. Tang, just say what you need to say. Let’s not waste ti.”
Before Tang Yun ca here, she had imagined various scenarios in her head, about her first eting with Shangguan Ning. What she didn’t expect was that Shanguan Ning would be so calm and unaffected by Tang Yun’s behaviour. She wasn’t the least bit threatened by Tang Yun.
She felt challenged by Shangguan Ning’s indifference attitude. Ning appeared overconfident, as if she had already won. Tang Yun sat down on the sofa and said provokingly, “You have been avoiding
for the last few days. It seems as though you know about . I’m so sorry that I don’t know you. Jing Yichen has never ntioned you whenever we et. I apologise.”
“How did you know of , if he didn’t ntion ?” Shangguan Ning asked, calmly.
Tang Yun was speechless. She didn’t care that she had ssed up. Instead, she continued confidently, “Do you know why he treats
so nicely? He has been looking for
for the past ten years. He didn’t want to be with any other woman, because of . Do you think he has no feelings for ? Do you think that what he felt for
was transient?”
Her words hit Shangguan Ning with such force that her face paled.
Tang Yun noticed her reaction. She smiled proudly.
“If both of us were drowning, whom do you think he would rescue first? There’s no doubt that it would definitely be .”
Tang Yun laughed at Shangguan Ning, mockingly. She seed quite satisfied with the effect that here words were having on Ning.
Shangguan Ning didn’t believe Tang Yun, but her body language showed her discomfort.
She had never asked Jing Yichen why Tang Yun was so special to him.
Every ti she asked him about his past, he had said that his past was too complicated and he would tell her about everything at the right ti..
She had been waiting for the right ti, patiently.
Lately, both of them had been so caught up with their own responsibilities, that they had been unable to discuss all this.
“I got to know him when I was sixteen. He was Prince Charming and all the girls swooned over him. He didn’t care about anyone else except for .”
“I know him like the back of my hands. He has many small habits and quirks, which only I know well.”
“Do you know why he always carries a white handkerchief with him?”
Shangguan Ning looked up instantly, hearing these words. Her eyes were full of anger and hatred. Her calm deanour vanished.
She recollected that Jing Yichen had a habit of carrying a handkerchief with him, at all tis. She had even asked him about this before. Most people, especially n these days, hardly ever carried a handkerchief.
Did this habit have sothing to do with Tang Yun?
