Before I could come to a conclusion, Lu Chen was already in front of me.
"Why did you come out now?" he asked in a cold voice, as if trying to repress his anger.
He was still angry at me. I took a step back and put some distance between me and him. I looked up into his eyes and said sarcastically, "What does it have to do with you when I come out?"
Both of Lu Chen's eyes turned red as his suppressed anger gushed out, "You're determined to divorce me?"
It was the first time I saw him so angry. I was a little scared and subconsciously took a step back. This inadvertent act of mine had completely infuriated Lu Chen.
He grabbed my wrist and pulled me back so hard that I felt like my bones were going to break. "Divorce, I'm telling you, it's impossible, it's impossible in this lifetime."
"I was joking in the car. I made it clear to you." I twisted my wrist to free myself from his grip. The more I struggled, the harder he worked.
"Are you kidding?" He coldly snorted and said with extreme disdain, "What do you take me for? Leave if you want to end things? Because I like you, and you're spoiling my feelings like this? "
"When did I spoil your feelings?" He kept saying he liked me, but in front of outsiders, he didn't even give me a chance to explain myself, "Besides, do I have a request that you like me? You forced me to marry, you forced me to marry you, and you also forced me to be together. "
Lu Chen was stunned. He let go of my hand, and the anger on his face vanished. Ye Zichen frowned, but he didn't hear what I just said clearly. He had a look of disbelief on his face, and only after a long while did he speak with a wounded look.
"Mu Yan, you have no conscience."
After staying in the hotel for three days, I couldn't help thinking back to his words. I couldn't help but remember his injured expression.
He gave so much that if I were him, I would feel like I had no conscience when I heard him say that.
Under the control of my emotions, I am no longer myself. I am a puppet of anger. I don't know why I said what I did.
I tossed and turned in bed, unable to figure it out.
"Wu wu." The phone vibrated.
"Ten o'clock, to open the board of directors." It was from Lu Chen.
The last time we talked on WeChat was half a month ago, because we were together all the time and didn't need social software.
I have no investment as an empty board member, and I have no contribution to make to the United States, so I don't have to go to the board every month.
It was already 9.30 a.m. and I still hadn't changed clothes to wash my face and brush my teeth. It took her less than ten minutes to get out of bed and clear everything up. He sprinted down the mountain and took a taxi to Jumei.
When he arrived at the meeting room, Lu Yulin was already sitting inside. He was always the last one, you know. Lu Chen gave me an indifferent look before flipping through the documents in front of him.
I walked over to my seat and sat down, feeling helpless. I didn't know how long this fight would last. After all, it was a little more my fault, but I couldn't find a chance to apologize to him.
Lu Chen cleared his throat and began to speak.
"The original Zhou's prosecution had a very negative impact on the reputation of the group. The design department's director, Lu Yulin, is not well regulated and has to bear the primary responsibility. In addition, the Zhou prosecution is suspected of being instigated by Lu Yulin. I propose that you resign as director of Lu Yulin's design department, and raise your hands in disagreement. "
Other than Zhou Zijie, no one else raised a hand.
"Not more than half have resigned from the position of director of Lu Yulin's design department, as decided by the board of directors."
Lu Yulin snorted disdainfully at his words, openly expressing his disdain for Lu Chen's decision. Lu Chen did not even spare him a glance.
"Mu Yan, director of the design department, has been involved in related work. I propose that Director Mu Yan be the temporary director of the design department. "Raise your hands in disagreement."
I'm acting as the director of the design department? Was Lu Chen insane? Didn't he say that he couldn't rely on me? The design department was a company's reputation, and it directly related to the company's image.
I don't agree. Zhou Zijie raised her hand. The other three directors also raised their hands. There were a total of eleven members on the board of directors. Was the rest of them made a ruckus by Lu Chen?
"Not more than half of them have been decided by the board of directors …"
I interrupted him, "Lu..." CEO, I have something to say. "
"Speak." Lu Chen only said a simple word.
"Looking at his current state, I feel that my heart is empty and I am forcefully stabilizing my mind to speak." Everyone, I am young and inexperienced, so I really can't take on such a task. You don't have to think highly of me just because of my relationship with CEO Lu. "
"You're done?" Lu Chen looked at me, and I nodded. " "Vote again. Those who disagree, raise your hands."
There were two other people who raised their hands before, but now there's only one other person.
"In accordance with the resolution of the board of directors, the director of the design department will temporarily replace Mu Yan."
I was in despair, "CEO Lu..." I also want to appeal.
"I've already decided. Talk to me after the meeting if you have anything."
I put my head down on the table and waited for the meeting to end.
Lu Chen's monthly report, as well as the group's planning and financial report by the end of the year, made me drowsy, but luckily it ended before I could fall asleep.
I followed him back to his office, yawned, and sat down at his desk.
Lu Chen said as he flipped through the minutes handed to him by his secretary, "If you have any questions, feel free to tell me."
"I can't be the director of this design department."
Lu Chen put on a businesslike front, "Give me a reasonable excuse that I can't accept."
"Because I can't even be a designer, much less a director."
"Not enough. The director is more important in managing and making a department work well, and you don't have to do the design yourself. "
"Then I'm even more out of line. I've never been a manager before." The biggest officer I ever was was the team leader.
"You are a director of the group. You must have the ability to manage the group. You have no experience, so I'll give you a chance to practice right now. " Then he looked down at his secretary and told her where the minutes of the meeting were going to go and what they were going to be, and I didn't like the way he was multitasking.
Angry, Lu Chen blurted out before his words even left his mouth, "Lu Chen, why do you always make me do things I don't like."
Lu Chen looked over, his voice filled with an eerie aura that sent chills down one's spine. He did not reply immediately. He looked back at the document, and after finishing his orders with a few words, he let the secretary go out.
We were alone in the room.
Lu Chen threw the pen in his hand onto the table and leaned back in his chair, hugging his shoulder. He sneered, "You're saying I'm forcing you again?"
His tone was terrifyingly cold. I was unfamiliar and familiar with this kind of Lu Chen, as I had initially remembered him. But this kind of Lu Chen had already left me for a long time.
