NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 14 – Something’s Missing
Wang Yixue's eyes sparkled with even more amusement.
She said happily, "Since you think it's a good idea, I'll invest in this project. But I'm still hesitant. The partner I'm considering is the French Fars Company, and I just don't trust them."
"You're overthinking it. I've dealt with them before. They're top-notch in new energy research. Partnering with them to get the latest technology will guarantee profits," Tang Yu said earnestly.
[Is this silly girl's intuition a bit too sharp? The Fars Company does have issues, but Ye Chen has covered them up.]
[Their fake accounting and tax evasion won't be exposed for a while.]
[As for their hyped new energy technology, it's far from mature and has major safety issues. In short, it's a damn scam company.]
[Ye Chen is really vicious, spending tens of billions to buy into this lousy company just to trap the Wang Family.]
Wang Yixue could barely contain her laughter.
She felt like she had completely mastered Tang Yu, as if she had a remote control in her hand.
As long as she pressed the button, this guy would react!
"Alright, since you're so sure, there shouldn't be a problem. I'm planning to let Rulong handle this project. Do you think he's capable of managing it?" she asked Tang Yu again.
"Rulong is known as a genius in Suzhou and Hangzhou. With his talent, there's no problem at all," Tang Yu praised enthusiastically, feeling thrilled inside.
[It's back, everything's finally back to normal!]
[Letting Wang Rulong take over this lousy project will seal the deal. If he doesn't handle it, how can he cover up the project's issues?]
[If I remember correctly, your company's Vice President Li is in cahoots with Wang Rulong. He knows about this too and has taken a billion in bribes from Wang Rulong to deliberately create a smokescreen.]
Wang Yixue squinted her eyes. Vice President Li?
The only Vice President Li in the company was Li Deshen, who had been with the company for thirty years.
Because of his competence and loyalty to the Wang Family, he was deeply trusted.
He had been strongly advocating for this new energy project and had discussed it with her several times, saying it could support the Wang Family's development for twenty years!
After arranging the cosmetics on the table, Tang Yu said coldly, "I've cleaned up everything. Can I go now?"
"Not bad, you can go," Wang Yixue said with a happy smile.
Tang Yu didn't rush to leave but looked at her phone, indicating that she should delete the videos and photos.
"Why are you looking at me? I've already deleted the photos and videos. You can check if you don't believe me. Do you think keeping them would make me proud?" Wang Yixue pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Yes, you must delete them. I can't allow a beauty like you to have your reputation ruined by a scumbag like me," Tang Yu nodded vigorously and then turned to run.
Damn it, he finally escaped Wang Yixue's clutches!
After quickly running out of the Wang Family's residence, the first thing Tang Yu did when he got back to his car was play some celebratory music.
"The most beautiful flower on the prairie, the fiery red Sarilang!"
Tang Yu hummed along, feeling incredibly happy.
After a whole day's effort, he finally got the plot back on track!
This way, Wang Yixue would definitely follow the storyline and end up with Ye Chen!
Although Jiang Xiaoyue seemed a bit off.
But Ye Chen had already said he would go to the Jiang Family to challenge her grandfather, so their storyline should start from there.
As for Su Muyue.
That woman was damn close to Ye Chen!
No wonder she's the main female lead! To protect Ye Chen, she even pretended to be engaged to me!
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!
But compared to me, the king of survival, she's still a bit lacking.
My wise eyes have seen through everything!
Once Ye Chen wins them over, won't the misunderstandings between us be resolved?
"Okay, it's time to clock out. The villain should return to his own life."
Tang Yu stepped on the gas, and the car sped onto the road. It was time to enjoy the life of a rich man!
...
Donghai Group.
CEO's Office.
Su Muyue was sitting at her desk, reviewing a document.
It was a new real estate project the company was investing in, requiring about a hundred billion. For the Su Family, it was considered a medium-scale project.
Her female secretary stood beside her, occasionally glancing at Su Muyue's stunning profile.
As a beauty herself, standing next to Su Muyue always made her feel inferior.
Why can some women be so perfect?
Just like her name, Muyue.
"It's already six o'clock. Aren't you leaving?" Su Muyue suddenly looked up and asked her secretary.
"Huh?"
The secretary was caught off guard and smiled awkwardly, "I didn't hear the knock, so I thought it was still early."
Usually, at six o'clock, the young master of the Tang Family would knock on the door to pick up Su Muyue for dinner.
For three years, as long as they weren't on holiday, Young Master Tang would always come.
Of course, Su Muyue never agreed.
Her casual remark made Su Muyue feel a bit lost.
She glanced at the office door.
Yes, according to routine, that man should be knocking on the door by now.
She usually found his persistence annoying.
But today, not hearing it made her feel uneasy, like something was missing.
"Su, I heard you and Young Master Tang got engaged? Congratulations on finally being together. I'll be heading out now," the secretary said with a smile as she packed up her things.
Su Muyue responded with a hum, suddenly losing the mood to continue working, feeling a tightness in her chest.
An engagement? What a joke. She already knew what that guy was thinking.
He liked her for three years, and now he suddenly didn't?
It made her feel a bit wronged.
Of course, she knew she couldn't blame him. After all, she had ignored him for three years.
"What's wrong with me?" Su Muyue rubbed her head, grabbed her bag, and left the office.
As she walked out, the remaining staff in the company greeted her.
"Hello, Su."
"Thank you for your hard work, Su."
"Leaving for the day, Su? Congratulations on being with Young Master Tang."
Seeing all these enthusiastic faces made her feel even more stifled.
She knew that these people secretly disliked her and had even given her the nickname "Iceberg."
"Isn't it tiring to wear masks all the time?" she thought.
She remembered Tang Yu.
At least she could hear his true thoughts.
In this world where everyone wore masks, he was practically running around naked.
