In the afternoon, Di Mingjue was busy with work, sitting at his desk without looking up. Jiang Ziyu, seizing the opportunity while he was occupied and had no time to pay attention to her, quietly left the office.
In the public office area, employees were energetic and busy with their work in the morning, but in the afternoon, they sat listlessly at their desks, slacking off.
Wandering aimlessly in the corridor outside the office area, Jiang Ziyu heard voices coming from the communal pantry before she even reached it.
"President Di truly loves his current wife, I'm so envious of her!"
"Sigh, she's not even pretty. It must be because she was born into a good family. Who wouldn't be the eldest daughter of the Jiang family?"
"There's no point in thinking about becoming Mrs. Di. Let's focus on earning money. But those two today were really unlucky. Who did they have to provoke but Madam Di?"
Did Di Mingjue love her? This was perhaps the funniest thing she had heard all day.
She was well aware of what had happened in the restaurant. Di Mingjue was acting, after all, there were many people present at the time, and he had to put on a show of being a loving couple.
She shook her head helplessly, dismissing these thoughts from her mind.
Turning to leave, the voices from ahead reached her again.
"That was so embarrassing. Those two will probably have a hard time finding jobs in the future. Unless they leave the capital, they won't be able to live a normal life."
"I finally understand why the rumored President Di is so fearsome. He's even more terrifying than the King of Hell."
Curiosity piqued, Jiang Ziyu took out her phone from her pocket. She saw that a video was being reposted on Weibo. xxs 1
The figures in the video were from Di Jue Group, and the protagonists were the same two who had provoked her at the restaurant.
In the video, the two stood side by side, timidly avoiding the camera. Their lips seemed unable to part, and their voices came out softly and weakly.
Upon hearing the opening sentence, Jiang Ziyu scrolled down to the comment section.
The comments ranged from confusion to sympathy, and then to anger. This was all because of the official Weibo account of Di Jue Group's comment below.
Everyone learned that the two were not as kind as they appeared, and there was no sympathy in the words, only endless mockery.
Following the comments, she navigated to the official Weibo account of Di Jue Group. It was better not to have gone in, but upon entering, she discovered that the large screen in front of the Di Jue Group building was endlessly replaying this video.
Had Di Mingjue gone mad?
The large screens outside the company had always displayed positive product endorsements. Displaying such content now would severely affect the company's external image.
Jiang Ziyu hurried back. On her way, she encountered Shen Lin, who was returning after finishing his tasks.
"Madam," Shen Lin greeted her first.
Glancing at the office, Jiang Ziyu pulled Shen Lin aside. "What's going on with the video? Weren't those two fired? How did such a video get out?"
"President Di ordered it," Shen Lin replied. "President Di cares a lot about Madam. He felt that your unhappiness was due to these matters, and therefore, the punishment for them was insufficient."
Because of her?
Jiang Ziyu's heart was deeply struck. After only a few seconds of doubt, she immediately dismissed the thought.
"Assistant Shen, you've misunderstood. Others may not know the reason, but don't you? Your President Di only cares about external perceptions, not because of me. Please don't misunderstand," Jiang Ziyu explained.
As the saying goes, the bystander sees more clearly than the person involved. This perfectly described their current situation.
Di Mingjue had stopped searching for the woman from years ago, wasn't this precisely because he had developed feelings for her? Shen Lin sighed inwardly but could not rashly voice his thoughts.
He listened to her words and remained silent.
"Come here!"
From the office doorway behind them, Di Mingjue appeared at some unknown time.
