Chapter 4 I Don't Want to Hear Your Excuses
"Financial statement analysis for Xinding should be completed before the end of the workday at noon."
Rong Shu returned to her workstation.
Although she was transferred to a junior position in the secretariat, Zhou Shan assigned her many tasks that were not her responsibility.
And she accepted them all.
Her continued hard work at the company was nothing but self-deception; Sheng Tingchen wouldn't even glance at her.
After Rong Shu finished the report analysis, she handed it to Zhou Shan along with both the electronic and paper versions, and then ordered takeout.
Although the company has a cafeteria, she always brings her own lunch. She doesn't want to go to crowded places, doesn't want other people's eyes to be on her, doesn't want to interact with people, and just wants to be alone in peace and quiet.
I didn't prepare lunch this morning, so I just ordered takeout.
The time spent waiting for takeout.
A colleague came into the office after lunch, chatting excitedly as they walked.
"Mr. Sheng's girlfriend is so young, she must be a college student!"
"It must be, she's just so beautiful, like a porcelain doll."
"The way the CEO looked at her was so tender, it was almost dripping with affection. I never expected the usually serious CEO to have such a loving side. It's like a real-life version of a domineering CEO and his sweet little wife!"
"..."
Two colleagues were chatting when they walked into the office and noticed Rong Shu sitting at her workstation. She really looked like a bandit leader.
Since being transferred to the secretariat, she has not interacted with anyone except for work-related matters. Now she has become increasingly withdrawn, wearing a mask all day as if she is ashamed to be seen by others.
It's really hard to imagine that just over half a year ago she was a high-profile president's assistant.
After receiving a call from the deliveryman, Rong Shu got up.
When she got downstairs to pick up her takeout...
Just then, two hotel staff members carrying food asked the front desk for help, and the front desk swiped their elevator cards for the president's private elevator.
Rong Shu saw a bottle of red wine in the hand of a staff member. That bottle cost around two million. Two million was just money that Sheng Tingchen could earn in less than a minute.
She took her takeout pork trotter rice upstairs.
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Shan found her and said, "The president is looking for you."
Rong Shu was startled, a strange sense of unease creeping into her heart.
as predicted.
When Rong Shu entered the president's office, a tense atmosphere enveloped her. She walked to the desk and called out, "President Sheng."
When Sheng Tingchen looked up at her, his handsome face was cold and stern. He tossed the document in his hand towards Rong Shu's face, saying, "This is the analysis report you prepared?"
The sharp A4 paper slid across Rong Shu's cheek, and she felt a stinging pain. Looking at the scattered documents at her feet, she saw the report she had prepared that morning.
She held her stomach with one hand and bent down with difficulty to pick up the documents on the ground.
The man's dark eyes stared coldly at her as she slowly squatted down, supporting her stomach.
Rong Shu carefully examined the analysis report in her hand and immediately noticed several discrepancies in the numbers. She protested, "President Sheng, this is not the report I prepared."
"Alright, I don't want to hear your excuses."
Rong Shu gripped the document in her hand tightly.
Sheng Tingchen was not unaware of her abilities, nor did he refuse to listen to her excuses; he simply tacitly accepted that she was being wronged.
To be hated to this extent by the man she deeply loves is truly both pathetic and laughable.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, she mustered her courage and said, "I have a backup. I can send it to you, Mr. Sheng, for your review now. You can scold me then."
Sheng Tingchen narrowed his dark eyes, displeasure evident in them.
Rong Shu was on edge. Deep down, she felt a fear of Sheng Tingchen, a fear of authority, especially when he was cold-faced. She didn't dare to say a word in his defense.
At this moment, she tried to calm herself down. Anyway, they were getting a divorce soon, and she would do as he wished. She would never set foot here again, and she would no longer have any expectations of him. What was there to be afraid of?
"You feel wronged?" The man's voice was like icy shards, laced with sarcasm.
Rong Shu met Leng Rui's cold, dark eyes, her fingertips digging deeply into her palms. Her voice grew heavier as she said, "President Sheng wrongly accused me without asking why. Shouldn't I prove myself?"
Sheng Tingchen's face turned completely cold. "That's what you deserve."
Rong Shu felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her face turned deathly pale.
At this time.
The door to the lounge opened.
A girl wearing a pink silk slip dress walked out, with long, glossy black hair, fair skin that seemed to glow, and exquisite features that made her so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.
"Brother Chen!"
The girl's voice was as gentle and delicate as a spring breeze and rain.
Rong Shu finally saw the girl's face clearly, and she was indeed so beautiful that it made her feel ashamed of herself.
She only glanced at him before hearing the man's stern voice, "Get out!"
Rong Shu withdrew her gaze, suppressed her surging emotions, and turned to walk outside.
I just stepped out of the office.
Hearing the girl's gentle, comforting voice, the man quickly calmed down.
"..."
Rong Shu raised her head, forcing back the tears welling up in her eyes.
She went to a deserted corner of the stairwell, leaned on the railing with one hand, and finally couldn't hold back her emotions any longer. Tears streamed down her face, and her stomach churned with angina.
To completely eradicate a man she had loved for eight years from her heart was like tearing out her flesh and bones, but it's okay, everything will be alright, she will forget him completely.
I don't know how much time has passed.
She finally calmed down and went upstairs to her workstation. She encountered a girl walking towards her. The girl was dressed in custom-made designer clothes, exquisite from head to toe. She was obviously a girl who had been raised in a wealthy and pampered environment.
Zhou Mu personally escorted her; Zhou Mu was Sheng Tingchen's special assistant.
When the girl saw Rong Shu, she smiled and walked towards her. She stopped and said gently, "It's all alright now. Brother Chen won't blame you anymore."
talking.
She reached into her bag and took out a pearl, then took Rong Shu's hand and placed the pearl in her palm. "This is for you. Don't be sad. Remember to take care of the injury on your face. It's not nice for a girl to have scars on her face."
What a beautiful and kind girl.
Compared to the vibrant girl, she seemed like a clown living in a dark world.
Seeing that Rong Shu did not react.
Zhou Mu frowned and coldly reminded her, "Aren't you going to thank Miss An yet?"
It turns out her surname is An.
An Qingyue withdrew her hand and said, "It's alright, let's go!"
The two left.
Rong Shu stood there, looking at the silver-blue Australian white pearl in her palm. Its texture was flawless, as pure as that of a young girl.
It's just unknown whether this Miss An knows that Sheng Tingchen is already married.
Back at my workstation.
She printed out another copy of the original document and presented it to Zhou Shan. When Zhou Shan saw her, she showed no shame whatsoever; on the contrary, she was quite pleased with herself.
"You've seen clearly what kind of girl is worthy of a CEO."
Rong Shu threw the documents heavily in front of her, "So I'm not worthy, and neither are you. All you can do is resort to these low-class tricks. You'll never have a future. You're over thirty, you should hurry up and find someone to marry, stop daydreaming."
