Chapter 304: Chapter 304: That is My Hell_1
Ye Mengyan was still doing her utmost to make herself favorable to Gu Yuanzhou.
She thought the two of them could return to the way things were before.
However, Gu Yuanzhou merely took a disinterested look at her,
“Take your own ride. I’ve called a car!”
To Ye Mengyan’s surprise, Gu Yuanzhou took my hand and got into a Rolls-Royce that had just pulled up.
At this point, even I didn’t want to have any involvement with him.
But seeing Ye Mengyan’s look of reproach, grievance, bitterness, and jealousy, I can’t help but feel vindicated.
So, I didn’t protest, just followed Gu Yuanzhou into the car.
Gu Yuanzhou led me to the back seat…
After the car door closed.
I did not expect Ye Mengyan to stage another scene.
She came up to the car window, leaned against it, tearfully pleading with Gu Yuanzhou,
“Brother Gu, can I ride with you? I promise I won’t disturb you.”
Her pitiful, pleading expression would melt any man’s heart.
Yet it seemed that Gu Yuanzhou was now resolute in his decision, he couldn’t bear to even look at her again.
“I never want to see you again!”
“Brother Gu, are you abandoning me?”
“Was I not clear enough?”
“Brother Gu, are you looking down upon me? I admit I was wrong, okay?”
Ye Mengyan thought Gu Yuanzhou would rescue her from Hong Kong just like before, that he still loved her as he once did.
However, from the moment she left the airport, his attitude towards her had changed.
This caught her off guard.
She found it hard to accept. She pressed herself against the window, sobbing uncontrollably. She thought that as long as she played the victim and acted weak as she used to, Gu Yuanzhou would forgive her.
However, this time she underestimated a man’s capacity to be ruthless.
How could a man who could be so brutal to his own wife and child be blinded by her tears!
He ignored her cries, his face darkening as he slowly rolled up the window.
Ye Mengyan was on the verge of collapse, banging on the windows with both hands.
“Brother Gu, Brother Gu, please don’t abandon me!”
Gu Yuanzhou paid her no attention and told the driver, “Go!”
“Mr. Gu, Miss Ye is still on the car, it might hurt her once we move…”
The driver was somewhat worried, as Ye Mengyan was still leaning on the car, refusing to let go.
Gu Yuanzhou closed his eyes, “Don’t worry about her!”
“Yes, sir!”
Following Gu Yuanzhou’s order, the driver stepped on the gas and sped away.
Turning my head, I saw through the window that Ye Mengyan had fallen and hit her head, blood spreading across her forehead.
She lay there on the ground, beating the floor with her fist, her expression a mixture of hatred and pain…
I slightly curved my lips into a smirk.
You’ve made your bed, now lie in it.
She truly brought this situation upon herself.
Turning back to look at Gu Yuanzhou,
“President Gu, it looks like Miss Ye is injured, aren’t you going to help?”
Gu Yuanzhou merely coldly denied me,
“Don’t mention her in front of me.”
Alright!
I only mentioned her to rub in his pain.
Upon returning from the airport.
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t take me directly to Maple Mansion.
As soon as I entered, I saw two unfamiliar faces…
They must be employees from Gu Yuanzhou’s company, called over to pack up Ye Mengyan’s things.
“President Gu, we’ve packed up all the clothing and personal items from Miss Ye’s bedroom.”
“Take them to the company! Then call her and tell her to collect them… also, pay up all her wages and terminate her employment today!”
“President Gu, what if she refuses to come and collect her stuff?”
“Give her two days to collect her things, if not, throw it all in the trash.”
“Yes, sir!”
I sat on the sofa, silently witnessing Gu Yuanzhou’s fallout with Ye Mengyan.
It was only when I rechecked my phone that I understood why Gu Yuanzhou so resolutely fired Ye Mengyan.
After the video of Ye Mengyan bribing the event organizers leaked, shrewd netizens discovered that the design products she presented for Zhenyi Company were extremely poor.
People felt that she didn’t deserve even a third place prize, and the backlash extended to Zhenyi Company as well.
To make matters worse, after Ye Mengyan’s post slandering me went viral online.
Enraged netizens began a boycott against all the products of Zhenyi Company.
At this point, hackers had infiltrated Zhenyi Company’s website, and even photos of Gu Yuanzhou, the president of Zhenyi Company, had been photoshopped into popular meme expressions.
Of course, as an onlooker, I enjoyed this entire spectacle.
After all, I had warned Gu Yuanzhou before that with Ye Mengyan, this troublemaker around, she would eventually bring Zhenyi Company down.
This mess was merely the result of his past actions.
My mood was exceptionally good.
I boiled some water and brewed myself a pot of tea.
Oh, I picked the best Longjing tea leaves, why not since Gu Yuanzhou was the one who paid for it? In such a joyful time, it felt good to celebrate.
I brewed the tea and savored it slowly.
I hadn’t felt this content in a long time.
In contrast to my leisure, Gu Yuanzhou was bustling nonstop.
He was always on the phone…
This was probably the biggest PR crisis he had encountered since he took office.
He paced back and forth in the living room, making calls to the company’s top executives…
“Find a way to get rid of the trending topic, no matter how much it costs!”
“Hire some paid trolls, haters, to whitewash our image. Can’t you do that?”
“Are you all useless? I’ve been feeding you for so many years, and now that the company is in a major crisis, can’t you think of a single solution?”
Gu Yuanzhou was raging mad.
He was so angry that he wanted to throw his phone.
After finishing my pot of tea, I stood up.
“Mr. Gu, I’m going home!”
Only then did Gu Yuanzhou pull himself out of his rage to look at me.
He turned off his phone and threw it onto the sofa, “What did you say?”
“I’m going home!!”
As I tried to leave, he stood up to block my path.
He stopped me, “Home? Where are you going?”
“Mr. Gu… You hurt my fiancé, and I need to go home to take care of him!”
“Don’t speak nonsense! You are Song Yun, Mrs. Gu. Your home is here with me!”
Gu Yuanzhou’s sudden change in attitude took me by surprise.
I gave him a ruthless smirk,
“My home is with you? Are you referring to the Golden Bay villa that was burned down?”
That place was not my home, but my hell…
Although his affair with his mistress is now in the open, every action has a reaction, and this disaster was caused by both of them.
And they both have to face the consequences.
