Lu Weixi immediately hung up her phone. She knew that Qin Zhiyou had nothing good to say and that most of his words would definitely be related to him!
Upon closer thought, excluding this recent period of ease, throughout these five long years of marriage, it seemed as though Qin Zhiyou only showed interest in her at times like this.
At the start, it didn’t matter much, they didn’t have any feelings for each other and they weren’t thinking about the long run.
But recently, there had been a thaw in her relationship with Qin Zhiyou and they had reached this point where it would be extremely hard to get a divorce. Since they cannot separate, it seemed natural to foster good relations.
Their current relationship is somewhat similar to when they first started dating and first got married.
Looking back, Qin Zhiyou was not cold-hearted from the start. In their early days together, although Qin Zhiyou was not totally subservient, he cooperated quite well, which is why she agreed to marry him. Shortly after their marriage, although Qin Zhigu had left, Qin Zhiyou remained the same towards her as if nothing had happened…
Lu Weixi furrowed her brows as she stared at the distant moon. Not saying anything for a long time.
Lu Weixi’s haze persisted over the next few days at work. Even Xiaochen, who worked with her, noticed. She sat in the conference room, slightly furrowing her brows, one hand propping up her chin as if deep in thought. Yet, it wasn’t until Xiaochen waved his palm in front of her for quite a while that she finally reacted. The whole room was watching her, you could hear a pin drop in the quiet conference room.
She remained calm and collected, as the team leader for the entire Lulu project team. She picked up her documents and asked directly, “Where did we leave off? Recap it for me.”
After the meeting, she held a cup of coffee in one hand, standing at her workstation staring at her computer screen for a long time, just unable to type anything. She knew her current state was a bit off, especially after seeing the news the next day, seeing Bai Changyou at the event that Qin Zhiyou attended.
No matter how much mental preparation she had made, the shocking news that Bai Changyou had indeed returned was difficult for her to accept.
She shook her head, put down her coffee cup, and originally intended to open a document, but for some reason, she opened Yan City TV’s news channel instead.
The news from Yan City TV also reported on this conference, and Bai Changyou was there in the fleeting group photo. She hit the pause button and clicked zoom. Five years had passed, and Bai Changyou’s upkeep was at its best. He still displayed the image of a charming and successful middle-aged man. If she didn’t know about the things he had done, Lu Weixi would also comment: the charm of a mature man.
Now she realized that behind such mature men, rather than a supportive woman, it could be a woman whose body he had climbed over to reach his position.
After watching with cold eyes and picking up her coffee cup ready to drink, near the end of the broadcast, the presenter added “This report was brought to you by our journalist Liu Yiyi from XX City.”
Her hand, holding the coffee cup, instantly tilted, spilling the coffee. The black liquid spread all over the table.
“Oh my, Manager Lu, what happened?”
Xiaochen, who was sorting out the meeting summary to give to her, saw this scene. He immediately stepped forward to help Lu Weixi clean her desk. Lu Weixi was still standing at her station, staring at the computer screen, not moving an inch..
