Chapter 124 - Lying on the Couch

The next day, the person who knocked the door was Yu Cen Ran's assistant. In her hand was a piece of kraft paper containing a document. Needless to say, even South Bridge knew what it was.

Without saying anything, South Bridge took the document. With his eyes lowered, his gaze lightly rested on the document, and then he suddenly frowned. She asked him to go back and correct it, so why did he take it back without changing a single word.

Nanqiao raised her eyes and quietly sized up the assistant. Thinking of something, she asked, "Where is Lawyer Chen?"

Thinking about it carefully, it was a divorce agreement that had been modified by Lawyer Chen. How could it have been sent over again as an assistant by Yu Cen Ran?

With some doubts in his mind, he heard the assistant say, "Lawyer Chen is not feeling well today. The CEO asked me to come."

Actually, the divorce agreement that Lawyer Chen revised had already been torn apart by his own CEO. With just a glance, his expression changed. Even now, it was still frightening. How could Lawyer Chen dare to come?

The assistant did not dare to say these words out loud. In fact, the South Bridge already saw them and faintly guessed a few things.

South Bridge's eyelashes trembled slightly. Without saying anything, he handed the documents over to the assistant, then walked to the car and opened the door. He turned around and gently smiled at the assistant. "Come, take me to see your CEO."

"Alright."

The car soon stopped in front of the Yu Group. In less than half an hour, the assistant's palm was covered with a thin layer of sweat. He quietly wiped it on his suit pants and turned around to ask, "Miss Nanqiao."

Why don't we sign it, he wanted to say.

Lawyer Chen's fate was clear to all, it was just a proposal to amend the agreement. Before he could take action, he was immediately expelled by Yu Cen Ran. The lawyer's office was also forced to stop all work with the Yu Group.

The assistant raised her hand and wiped off a layer of sweat from her forehead. It was sticky. She carefully observed the person in the back seat through the rearview mirror and said cautiously, "Otherwise, you …"

She knew that her assistant was making things difficult for her. Taking a deep breath, she stood up from her chair and said, "Relax, it was my own request, I won't implicate you."

They took the elevator all the way to the 30th floor. The South Bridge reached the president's office very quickly. Although it was a glass door, people outside couldn't see what was going on inside clearly. Special glass materials couldn't be easily broken.

Nanqiao knew that he was inside, and clenched his fists tightly. He thought of how he was going to see Yu Cen Ran soon. He exhaled, inhaled, and was a bit worried. He also felt nervous as he raised his hand and punched in the password.

The glass door opened with a click. The password was her birthday. It didn't change.

Holding his palm, South Bridge walked in with large strides. His line of sight fell on the room and inadvertently knocked someone's back into his eyes. He stood in front of the French window, smoking and puffing out smoke, very suffocating.

"The divorce agreement was authorized by you, so why don't you amend it according to my requirements? Actually, it won't harm you in any way. Yu Cen Ran, you're a businessman, you can't possibly not know how to judge the pros and cons, right?" South Bridge used his hands to brush away the smoke and could not help but cough.

With a slight movement of his long finger, Yu Cen Ran flicked the burned-out banquet table. Without turning around, she opened her mouth and her voice suddenly turned cold. "In your eyes, when have I ever had a fight with you?"

There was anger in his words, but South Bridge did not dare to refute. He only refused, "You've given too much. Yu Cen Ran, I can't accept this."

Nanqiao rejected the compensation suggested by Yu Cen Ran. She wasn't stupid, and she knew that signing a contract would bring her wealth and prosperity. However, she didn't think that she could do it.

Yu Cen Ran's voice was as cold as ice, and the temperature of her voice dropped by a few degrees, "You have no job, no income, and no acceptance. Can you live?"

Nanqiao straightened his neck, not willing to show any weakness. Being poked by Yu Cen Ran's words, he angrily glared at him and said, "I don't need your care. I have hands and feet, so I will do as I see fit."

Hearing this, Yu Cen Ran finally moved. She turned around and her pair of sharp eyes suddenly swept over. Her gaze was solemn as it fixated itself on South Bridge's face. She didn't look away for a long time.

The South Bridge also did not shift its gaze away. It stared straight at the other party, staring at each other. It was a competition of momentum, and it could not afford to lose.

The fine Cuban cigars were still burning slowly, turning into wisps of smoke that lingered over the room. South Bridge and Yu Cen Ran stood facing each other, not saying a word. The room was so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of a needle dropping.

After a long while, Yu Cen Ran gave up. He rubbed the corner of his eyes with his long fingers as his temples throbbed. He looked at her helplessly and said, "You can't just let people have some snacks."

Seeing that Nanqiao was still stubborn, Yu Cen Ran's chest heaved up and down as his adam's apple rolled up and down. She felt infuriated as well. She suddenly put out her cigarette and threw it into the ashtray.

Pausing for a moment, Yu Cen Ran controlled his emotions and calmed himself down: "South Bridge, if you don't accept the terms I proposed, it would be equivalent to giving up your divorce. Your only chance, don't you want it? "

Your only chance, your only chance to escape from me

With that, Yu Cen Ran's long legs moved as he walked to the South Bridge. He brushed past the bridge, bringing a gust of cold wind with him. Without picking up his coat, he walked out of the room.

She pressed her hand to her chest, knowing how to restrain her expression. The corner of her mouth hooked into a bitter smile, thinking, just what is the matter with me? It was clearly me who asked for a divorce.

Yu Cen Ran agreed to anything, and even offered a generous reward that didn't make her feel even the slightest bit wronged. South Bridge thought, just what is she doing?

Thinking of this, Nanqiao withdrew her expression and followed him out the door. Yu Cen Ran entered a room. Without hesitation, she pushed open the door, closed her eyes and mustered her courage to shout, "I accept!"

Closing his eyes tightly, his hearing was abnormally sharp. South Bridge did not hear the answer it wanted to hear. Instead, it felt as if the surrounding sound had suddenly retreated like the tide. It was absolutely silent.

He slowly opened his eyes and narrowed them into a slit. The South Bridge: "… …"

The people below: "…"

Ah, South Bridge was simply too ashamed. She even wanted to immediately burrow into the hole and leave. What? Why did this man say half of his words? He ignored everyone and actually came to a meeting!

He silently cursed in his heart. Nan Qiao fiercely threw over a ball of hygiene, then pulled away a wisp of a smile and closed the door. His embarrassed smile was incomparably dry.

Yu Cen Ran stood in the middle of the main seat and loosely rolled up half of her sleeves. She had the temperament and aura of a mature man. It was obvious that she was stunned for a moment and had yet to recover.

The assistant beside him coughed and reminded him, "CEO, everyone is waiting."

"Yes."

Sitting down, Yu Cen Ran's fingers that were holding the pen suddenly tightened as her strength increased bit by bit. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. It didn't feel good, she just couldn't wait to get rid of him!

The meeting went on for almost forty minutes. South Bridge was squatting at a corner, and his legs were almost completely numb. At this moment, the door was pushed open from the inside, and people came out one after another.

She raised her head and saw Yu Cen Ran's tall and strong figure surrounded by a group of executives and executives. Yu Cen Ran did not even look at South Bridge at all.

"Director Yu, since our company and representatives from overseas have finished their work, can we start a new project soon?"

"Director Yu, I think …"

"Boss Yu!"

There were so many people around him. Nanqiao stood awkwardly at the side, not even able to squeeze a fingernail in. Previously, he didn't feel it, but now, he felt that a person like Yu Cen Ran was too high up in the sky to reach.

Yu Cen Ran's hand was in the pocket of her suit pants. Her mood was sluggish and cold, and she often used a simple single tone to answer all of the questions of the people around her.

Yu Jiao's eyes swept across the woman's petite figure. Yu Cen Ran's footsteps paused, but her interest was piqued. She patiently answered everyone's questions. After answering them all, more than ten minutes had passed.

The South Bridge leaned against the wall, drowsy. These past few nights, it was always difficult to sleep well, and since it was early in the morning, he came to find someone to make a ruckus. Now that everything was quiet, he couldn't help but feel like fighting his way up and down.

Covering, closing, opening with willpower, closing again, opening again, going back and forth a few rounds, the South Bridge really couldn't take it anymore. His fingers pinched the softness of his palm, and when he opened his eyes, he discovered that the man was standing in front of him, scaring him.

The shadow cast by her tall body completely enveloped her. Yu Cen's face was expressionless as he looked at her from high up in the air. It was unknown how long he stood there for.

Unexpectedly, he did not call out to her. Instead, he stared fixedly at her facial features. Every part of her face, Nanqiao's eyes opened so suddenly that he did not even have the time to retract his gaze.

It was deep and carried a faint light. That kind of feeling was too deep. She didn't know how to describe it, but she had to assume that Yu Cen Ran would suddenly lower her head and kiss her as naturally as before.

"Yu Cen Ran, you …" murmured Nan Qiao. Her lower lip was somewhat dry.

Yu Cen Ran cast a sidelong glance at her before biting her lips and interrupting, "Let's go."

"Huh?"

"Didn't you accept it?" His tone was light, and if it wasn't for the sudden glimpse of someone looking at him from the corner of his eye, no one would have guessed his mood.

Without reaching out to help her, Yu Cen Ran walked in front with her long legs and followed with her head lowered, like a frustrated wife. When she arrived at the familiar Rolls Royce, Yu Cen Ran didn't help her open the door and instead got into the driver's seat.

After some thought, he reached for the back seat's handlebars. Before he could open it, the passenger door was suddenly pushed open. Yu Cen Ran turned around and said impatiently, "What are you dawdling for? Get in."

Nanqiao nodded and said, "Yes."

The car drove steadily at a steady speed. From time to time, South Bridge would hold the bag with its hands and turn its head to look at the scenery outside the window. They were speechless, and soon arrived at their destination.

The limousine stopped in front of an ordinary building. It was late in the morning, and the long queue outside the door had all arrived. The South Bridge thought to itself about how it could be so lively, so when it got off the car and approached, it turned out to be the Civil Administration Bureau.
