Just as she arrived at the company entrance, Yu Sheng happened to meet Wen Group’s chief lawyer returning from outside.
During this period, he had devoted considerable effort to her affairs.
Naturally, Yu Sheng needed to greet him and properly express her gratitude.
Upon seeing her.
The other party warmly stepped forward to greet her, “Young Madam, here to deliver lunch to Young Master Wen?”
“Mhmm!”
After exchanging a few casual words, they were about to take the elevator up together when they heard what seemed like an argument at the reception desk. Curious, Yu Sheng turned her head and saw Gu Chen holding documents, attempting to force his way in.
He had been stopped by security.
The receptionist sternly issued another warning.
“Mr. Gu, I’ve made it very clear – the executive office has rejected your appointment request and returned your cooperation proposal. Please leave!”
This was an opportunity he had fought hard to obtain.
Until yesterday.
Wen Group hadn’t been so explicitly rejecting!
Why so sudden!
Gu Chen naturally refused to give up this chance, “I want to see President Wen!”
Uh…
The reception staff found this utterly ridiculous!
President Wen was practically semi-retired and hadn’t been seen for a long time. Currently, Young Master Wen was handling all matters within the group.
You want to see President Wen?
This is just making things difficult for people!
Coincidentally, the elevator doors opened at that moment, and Gu Chen rushed over recklessly regardless of the situation.
Yu Sheng, who had been facing away from him, instinctively turned around at the noisy commotion and almost reflexively began to retreat.
After all.
She was pregnant now – if she got knocked over, how would she explain it to Wen Zhuqing!
Wen Group’s chief lawyer naturally positioned himself in front of her. Protecting the young madam was practically part of his job responsibilities.
But their actions, when seen by Gu Chen, took on an entirely different meaning.
“Yu Sheng, you!”
Gu Chen stared incredulously at the girl he had been longing for all this time.
She remained just as pure as before, as if untainted by worldly matters, her clear eyes seemingly untouched by dust, making anyone who glimpsed them feel utterly enchanted.
Her round little face shone so brightly when she smiled.
When wronged, the slight pout of her small mouth made people feel overwhelmingly protective.
Yet this very girl was now hiding behind someone else.
Blocked from going upstairs, and reminded of Yu Jiaojiao’s words, upon witnessing this scene.
The fury deep within Gu Chen’s heart completely erupted at this moment.
“Yu Sheng!”
This hysterical roar startled several security guards into freezing on the spot, momentarily unsure how to respond.
After breaking free from the security guards’ restraint, Gu Chen immediately rushed up to the chief lawyer.
Grabbing him by the collar.
“Shen Yan! Don’t you have any sense of how old you are this year? A man with a family, a wife and children – how could you still do something like this!”
Shen Yan: “…”
What had he done?
This was completely absurd!
Shen Yan naturally wouldn’t let himself be falsely accused like this, forcibly prying open the hand gripping his collar.
“Young Master Gu, if you have something to say, please say it properly!”
Yu Sheng, who had been holding the lunch box and planning to take the elevator away first, turned back only to find the elevator had somehow gone back up.
Ah!
So frustrating!
Meanwhile, Gu Chen continued relentlessly, “Yu Sheng, you’d rather be this old man’s mistress than be with me!”
“Hah, how much does he pay you per month? I’ll double it, come keep me company instead!”
The angry roar seemed about to pierce through Yu Sheng’s eardrums.
His demeanor made it abundantly clear – he intended to humiliate Yu Sheng with money.
No. To be precise, in his eyes.
Yu Sheng was exactly the kind of person who could be arbitrarily trampled upon with just a little money.
The surrounding whispers kept drifting into Yu Sheng’s ears like some kind of evil spell.
Here in this public place, without distinguishing right from wrong, he was causing such a scene.
After making this scene, he would shift all the blame onto her.
This kind of spineless, brainless man – if you dared say you didn’t like him, he’d think everything was your fault.
Meeting Yu Sheng’s angry, resentful gaze, Gu Chen suddenly pushed Shen Yan aside and rushed up to Yu Sheng.
Without a word, he snatched the two lunch boxes from her hands and threw them violently onto the floor.
Inside were the lunches Aunt Jiang had carefully prepared, now smashed across the smooth, white floor.
The next second.
Yu Sheng raised her hand and landed a fierce slap across his face.
“Gu Chen, you lunatic!”
Before Gu Chen could react, Yu Sheng immediately followed up with several more hard slaps across his face, left and right.
She used so much force that her palms went numb from the impact.
“Are you awake now?””
If not!
She wouldn’t mind giving him a good hard kick right below the belt.
This was probably the first time Yu Sheng had been so aggressive and irritable in front of him, completely opposite to her previous gentle, soft-spoken image.
Gu Chen stood there stunned by the beating, unable to regain his composure for a long time.
“You’re the lofty young master of the Gu family, while I’m just the unfavored adopted daughter of the Yu family. You were the one who told me not to compete with Yu Jiaojiao!”
“Our relationship ended completely the moment you wholeheartedly trusted Yu Jiaojiao and maliciously misjudged me!”
“No, I should say that I, Yu Sheng, never liked you in the first place!”
Yu Sheng placed a hand over her abdomen, genuinely worried this man might make her seriously ill with anger.
As she turned to leave, she still felt unsatisfied.
She turned back and gave him another slap.
The blows left Gu Chen’s cheeks reddened, with clear, visible handprints.
“Whoever I’m with has nothing to do with you!”
“Security, call the police!”
Damn it!
They’re all fucking lunatics!
Just then, the elevator arrived, and the person who stepped out was Wen Zhuqing’s secretary, who had hurried down after receiving the call about Gu Chen causing trouble downstairs.
Frustrated, Yu Sheng strode into the elevator and directly pressed the button for the top floor.
After Yu Sheng left, the onlookers downstairs silently gave thumbs-up, and some even started applauding.
“So badass, she’s really something else!”
“Holy shit, this is like a satisfying novel plot coming to life!”
Everyone discussed among themselves as they dispersed.
But no one told Gu Chen that Yu Sheng had nothing to do with Shen Yan, Wen Corporation’s chief lawyer – she was actually the young madam of the Wen family.
Why would they tell him?
If this tasteless man found out and caused trouble in front of Wen Zhuqing, what then?
Hahahahaha.
They were actually looking forward to the moment when the young madam’s true identity would be revealed, leaving this scumbag utterly dumbfounded.
Just thinking about it was satisfying!
