As they were talking, Li ngru’s phone suddenly rang. She took it out and said, "Lu Beiyao, let’s talk next ti. I need to take this call first."
She turned to answer the phone and stumbled away, leaning against the wall around a corner before asking, "Why did you suddenly call ?"
"I don’t think Lu Beiyao has any good intentions in seeking you out. Since we’re both down on our luck, it’s only natural for to help you," Zhou Ju’an said seriously.
"Help ?" Li ngru seed to be talking to herself, "You definitely helped ."
She knew why he drank, but to hear that reason from his mouth was unbearably cruel.
"Thank you." Li ngru said softly, then hung up. She leaned against the wall deep in thought for a long ti. It really was pathetic, but by running away like this, she could pretend nothing had happened and continue to like Lu Beiyao, couldn’t she?
Once Lu Beiyao got in the car, he received a text from Li Siru, "Where exactly did you lose my pendant yesterday? Tell where you’ve been, and I’ll go look for it myself."
"Oh, you do have my number?" Lu Beiyao replied directly, "I’ll help you find it."
He drove straight to the bar, thinking it must have fallen there, but everyone at the bar said they hadn’t seen it, so...
Lu Beiyao sighed slightly. He’d better visit the Li Family tonight...
As soon as he arrived at the office, the manager ca up and said, "President Lu, Sisi ssaged early this morning saying she wants to resign and that she won’t be coming in anymore."
Lu Beiyao frowned slightly; it was indeed a swift move, "Tell her we won’t approve her resignation. Unreasoned absence is a breach of contract, and she needs to compensate for it."
The manager was a bit incredulous and confird again, "President Lu, are you sure you want to do this?"
Isn’t she your future sister-in-law?
"Any problem?" Lu Beiyao asked as he turned around.
The manager shook his head and complied as instructed.
Li Siru was almost going crazy. Lu Beiyao wouldn’t tell her where he lost the item, and she didn’t want to see Lu Beiyao anyway. Now, resigning would even require paying for breaching the contract.
It seed like Lu Beiyao was stirring things up, with nothing else to say, she directly asked the manager, "How much is the breach of contract penalty?"
The manager was a bit stunned. Had the two families’ marriage negotiations fallen through? But the Lu Family wouldn’t be so petty, would they?
Li Siru hadn’t been working there long, but she was always diligent, and the manager didn’t dislike her. He said directly, "Let calculate it first."
"Okay, tell Lu Beiyao, however much the penalty is, I still want to resign." She sent the ssage and then tossed her phone aside.
While lying in bed sulking, there was suddenly a knock on the door. She got up to open it and saw Li ngru standing at the door with red eyes.
"Sister, did you... cry?" Li Siru’s heart was extrely anxious.
Li ngru wiped her eyes, confird there were no tears, and said, "Not at all, maybe so sand blew in from outside." She walked in and asked, "I noticed you haven’t been going to work, so I ca to check on you."
"Why didn’t you go to the tea house, sister?" Li Siru asked, also explaining, "I’m thinking of resigning, so I didn’t go."
"Why do you want to resign? Is it because of Lu Beiyao?" Li ngru directly turned her head and asked.
