The two of them returned to their apartment in silence. Fu Jinchen's phone rang and he discovered that it was an unfamiliar number.
He opened the text message and took a look. It was a photo of Yang Duoduo taking a selfie. The person beside her was Fu Jinchen.
Below, Yang Duoduo wrote: Director Fu, your blessings today were very good. I hope that you can come along next time if there is a chance.
Fu Jinchen knitted his brows, not knowing when he had given his cell phone number to Yang Duoduo.
Fu Jinchen raised his head and looked at Chu Liang doubtfully, "Did you give my cell phone number to Yang Duoduo?"
Chu Liang's action of opening the refrigerator door paused for a moment before he acknowledged with a "En", "She has always been pestering me. I'm sorry, Boss Fu."
Fu Jinchen took a deep breath and kneaded his temple with his slender fingers before he sat down on the sofa.
"Chu Liang, come over."
Chu Liang looked at Fu Jinchen and noticed that his expression had turned slightly more serious. She immediately walked over and stood upright in front of him.
Fu Jinchen raised his head and looked at Chu Liang. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I seem to have indulged you a little too much during this period of time. It caused more and more people to find out about my secret."
Chu Liang pursed her lips, not saying anything. Regarding today's accident, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start.
It was obvious that Fu Jinchen had taken the initiative to ask to go to the Museum of Literature with her, so why did he want to settle this matter with her now that it had been exposed?
"Because the one who knows the secret is your friend." Fu Jinchen stared at Chu Liang as his knuckles cracked. In this silent atmosphere, it made one's hair stand on end.
"That's why I didn't take care of her."
When Chu Liang heard this, he immediately raised his head. His pupils dilated and for a moment, he felt as if he had misheard something.
There was no trace of a smile on Fu Jinchen's face. His gaze turned slightly colder as he said, "I've been enduring for a whole ten years, waiting for the best time to strike."
"If I fall into hell …" Fu Jinchen stood up slowly and pinched Chu Liang's chin. He stared into her eyes, "You won't be able to live peacefully either."
Chu Liang looked at Fu Jinchen's emotionless eyes and felt his heart stop for a few seconds. After he let go of his hand, he took a few deep breaths.
Ever since Chu Liang became strong, this was the first time he felt such a strong sense of oppression.
Fu Jinchen turned around and returned to his room. Chu Liang watched as the door was closed and felt all the strength in his body drained out. He then fell onto the sofa.
The night passed quietly. The next day, Chu Liang and Fu Jinchen arrived at the company during business hours. Just as they were about to press the 25 button for the elevator, Fu Jinchen made a gesture of pause.
Chu Liang looked at Fu Jinchen suspiciously. With a peculiar glint in his eyes, he said, "Let's go to the second floor first."
Chu Liang nodded and pressed the button for the elevator on the second floor. Soon, they arrived at the second floor.
On the second floor was the Fu Yi Group's advertising department. When he looked up, he saw all sorts of promotional posters. Chu Liang was not surprised by the decorations. She had seen the interior building of the Jane Xin Group before, so its style seemed similar.
After all, they were all airlines.
"Hello, Director Fu." When the staff saw Fu Jinchen, they greeted him in unison. Fu Jinchen nodded slightly as he looked around.
"Third floor." After giving out the order, Chu Liang pushed Fu Jinchen to the third floor. This time, the department that appeared was the Propaganda Department.
Fu Jinchen continued to look around. Although Chu Liang was following him, he didn't understand what Fu Jinchen was trying to do.
Feeling Chu Liang's doubt, Fu Jinchen turned his head and glanced at him, "I have a habit of visiting the company when I'm in a good mood and the company when I'm in a bad mood."
Chu Liang's movements paused for a moment before he nodded his head in understanding, "Yes."
"Let's continue."
Just like this, Chu Liang pushed Fu Jinchen through the dozen floors. When he arrived at the Ministry of Economy, Fu Jinchen was still passing by. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a female voice from behind him.
"Director Fu, please wait."
Chu Liang turned his head and was slightly surprised to see Yang Duoduo. However, Yang Duoduo took out a small box and handed it to Fu Jinchen, "I made this dessert personally. I hope you like it."
He raised his head and saw the curious gazes of the others. Just as he was about to reject them, Yang Duoduo added, "I ate with you yesterday. I realized that you seem to like Macaron very much, so …"
"Thank you." Fu Jinchen accepted the box and threw it to Chu Liang, "Help me carry it."
Chu Liang looked at the box and subconsciously grabbed it. He glanced at Yang Duoduo, who returned to the office with a bashful smile on her face.
Chu Liang and Fu Jinchen returned to the CEO's office and placed the dessert box on his table.
Fu Jinchen felt a little annoyed as he looked at the box. He waved his hand and said, "You can take care of it."
Chu Liang spoke with some hesitation, "After all, it's only Duo Duo's heart, I think it's better to open it and take a look."
"Will?" Fu Jinchen frowned. Chu Liang pursed his lips and lowered his head without a word.
Fu Jinchen unhurriedly opened the dessert box and saw the exquisite Makaron inside. He picked one up and looked at it.
In the next second, Fu Jinchen's expression changed. He immediately threw away Ma Kailong and frowned, "Throw away this box of snacks. Quickly!"
Chu Liang was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he picked up a macaron and took a bite. The sweet taste of chocolate wafted into his mouth. He immediately packed the box and walked out of the office.
Fu Jinchen took a deep breath before lying down on the table. He felt as if his stomach was in a mess.
Chu Liang ran back after he was done with his work. When he saw Fu Jinchen leaning back in his chair with a pale face, he immediately walked over and asked worriedly, "Boss Fu, are you alright?"
Fu Jinchen's entire face scrunched up into a frown. He reached out his hand to grab Chu Liang's wrist and said hoarsely, "Help me to the lounge."
Behind the screen in the CEO's office, there was a secret resting room that most people wouldn't know about.
It was also Chu Liang's first time seeing it. After pressing the button, another space appeared in front of him.
She immediately supported Fu Jinchen onto the bed. Seeing his still uncomfortable appearance, Chu Liang felt somewhat helpless.
The last time the allergy was caused by drinking coffee with chocolate, what was the cause of the symptoms this time?
"So cold." Fu Jinchen's entire body trembled as he spoke with a trembling voice. Chu Liang didn't hear it clearly, but Fu Jinchen pulled her wrist with all his might.
Chu Liang wasn't prepared for Fu Jinchen pulling her onto the bed. Just as she was about to get up, she heard Fu Jinchen mumbling to himself.
"Mommy …" A soft call, but it was filled with years of longing.
While Chu Liang was still in a daze, Fu Jinchen stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly. When he felt the warmth of her embrace, he then closed his eyes in relief.
