Lu Ye Bai walked over and frowned when he saw An Ran, "What are you doing here?"
The office workers who were previously watching the commotion found excuses to leave when they realized they couldn't participate in the gossip. An Ran, who was just being laughed at, was finally relieved from being the clown.
"I'm here to see Fu Leng Yu."
"This is the Emperor Group, a serious workplace. Don't think that just because you're Fu Leng Yu's wife, you can come here and show off!"
An Ran rubbed her red arm that had just been stepped on and stubbornly explained, "I'm not here to show off, I just want to see him!"
Lu Ye Bai casually draped his suit jacket over his shoulder and raised an eyebrow, coldly sneering. Looking into An Ran's eyes, there was obvious disbelief. But he didn't have the patience to argue with a woman in public.
"Follow me."
Lu Ye Bai led her to the top floor office and was about to knock on the door when the assistant at the doorawkwardly stopped them. "Sorry... Mr. Fu may not be convenient to see people right now... Mr. Lu, please wait a moment..."
Lu Ye Bai furrowed his brow slightly and saw a woman in a white dress through the half-open door. His three parts of displeasure turned into seven parts of curiosity, "Hey? This is the first time I've seen such a beauty in his office. What's going on?"
Fu Leng Yu's assistant had a look of embarrassment and glanced at An Ran, awkwardly explaining, "That is... the daughter of the CEO of the cooperating company. She came to deliver the cooperation contract and materials to Mr. Fu..."
Before they could finish their conversation, a soft and seductive voice was heard from inside the room, "Mr. Fu... why are you being so rough... you're hurting me with your roughness..."
Outside the door, both Lu Ye Bai and An Ran heard the conversation. Lu Ye Bai looked at An Ran sarcastically and lazily said, "It seems that Mr. Fu is not in the mood to see you now. You'd better leave on your own..."
Before he could finish, the sound of shattered glass was heard from inside the room.
"Get out! If you dare to seduce me again, I will make your company disappear from the capital!" followed by a seriesof scrambling and gasping sounds. The office door was pushed open rudely and a pitiful and angry beauty rushed out with a look of shame and anger on her face.
The assistant coughed awkwardly and said loudly to the office, "Mr. Fu, Mr. Lu is here to see you."
"Let him in."
The cold voice came from inside, with obvious impatience. As soon as Lu Ye Bai entered, he saw the lipstick mark on Fu Lengyu's collar and smiled, "A beautiful woman came to you and you rejected her. You're too cold and heartless, aren't you?"
An Ran didn't want to get involved in their conversation or what had just happened.
When she saw Fu Lengyu, she couldn't control her suppressed anger and excitement anymore and asked in a trembling voice, "Where is my mother? Where did you transfer her to? The doctor said that my mother's condition cannot be transferred to another hospital!
Are you trying to kill my mother by doing this? Fu Lengyu! Even if you don't like me, even if you have a grudge against me, you can't... you can't joke about my mother's life!"
Fu Lengyu glanced at An Ran as if she didn't exist. He calmly adjusted his tie and leaned back lazily on the chair, looking at Lu Ye Bai."Do you think wearing the exact same dress she wore before can seduce me? If they can raise such a ruthless daughter, there's no need for us to cooperate with their company anymore.
Arrange it so that the Emperor Group will no longer have any business dealings with them in any project."
Lu Ye Bai exclaimed, "Do you have to be so harsh?"
"Any woman who tries to seduce me using her name will not have a good ending!"
Fu Leng Yu coldly smiled and glanced meaningfully at An Ran. An Ran's fragile body trembled slightly. This was clearly a warning to her! But that night... it wasn't her fault at all! She was also a victim! Why did she have to bear this inexplicable disaster?
"You don't have to threaten me or mock me like this, Fu Leng Yu. I was foolish and did something wrong, I should be punished, but what did my mother do wrong? She didn't do anything wrong. Why are you tormenting my mother like this?"
An Ran became more and more agitated as she spoke, her nose tingling and her eyes burning as tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.
Fu Leng Yu's thin lips curved into a sarcastic smile. "Just by giving birth to a shameless daughter like you, she has committed an unforgivable mistake!"
"My mother is innocent! Don't blame others for your anger! My mother is critically ill and can't withstand this kind of torment. I beg you..."
Lu Ye Bai watched the scene and pretended to cough, reminding them that there was still someone else present. "This is a company, a place for doing business. If you have something to discuss, do it at home.
I don't want to see you now," Fu Leng Yu said coldly, looking at An Ran.
"She's critically ill now. She'll die if you keep tormenting her like this. Fu Leng Yu, I beg you..." An Ran pleaded bitterly.
"If you don't leave now... I can't guarantee that something won't happen to your mother!" An Ran's pupils dilated as she met Fu Lengyu's cold and icy gaze. She was completely frightened by the hatred in his eyes. Thinking of her mother, she couldn't help but suppress her worries and gritted her teeth, hoarsely saying, "Okay... I'll go! If something happens to my mother, then... we'll die together!" An Ran's last four words were spoken without a sound, filled with worry and suppressed fear, as she left in a sorry state.
Every minute and every second of waiting felt like an eternity of torment for An Ran. But as the night approached nine o'clock, Fu Lengyu still hadn't returned.
