Wan Fang pointed at Su Ding's face, cursing in a gloomy tone, "When did you get here! Get out!"
Fearing Jin Ye's presence in the office, she could only lower her voice.
Su Ding blinked, "But I still have something to discuss with CEO Jin. Assistant Wan, your clothes are wet, and it's windy at night. You're wearing such thin clothes; you should go back and change quickly."
This remark made Wan Fang's expression even uglier. It was clearly an insinuation about her having just seduced CEO Jin!
Wan Fang's face contorted with hatred as she gritted her teeth, "Why are you being so nosy! Which department are you from, and what's your name! I'll arrange for your dismissal tomorrow!"
"Ah, Assistant Wan, but I haven't done anything wrong," Su Ding said innocently.
"You're still not leaving, are you? Fine, don't blame me for not warning you!"
Wan Fang said with a ferocious expression, pointing her nail-polished finger at Su Ding, "A young girl like you isn't CEO Jin's type at all. Going in there would only be self-humiliation!"
"If you can keep tonight's business a secret, I can give you benefits at the company later. But if you insist on going in and ruining my reputation..."
Wan Fang gradually moved closer to Su Ding, her eyes glinting sinisterly, "I will make it impossible for you to survive in Jiang City! If you don't believe me, we'll see!"
"..."
Su Ding automatically ignored the threatening part and asked about what interested her most, "Sister Wan Fang, do you know what CEO Jin's type is?"
Seeing her ask this, Wan Fang was even more certain of Su Ding's intentions for the night.
She squinted at Su Ding, looking down on her condescendingly, "If you can keep tonight's business a secret, I'll tell you."
"Okay, I promise not to say a word."
Su Ding nodded, looking docile.
Wan Fang then let out a confident snort and lowered her voice, "CEO Jin likes married women."
"What?"
Su Ding was so surprised her jaw nearly dropped.
Wan Fang shot her a fierce glance, warning, "Shut your mouth. A pure young girl like you isn't CEO Jin's type at all, so don't waste your time."
"Sister... Sister Wan Fang, how do you know, uh, that CEO Jin likes married women?" Su Ding's forehead was covered in black lines.
"Hmph!"
Wan Fang pulled her collar up higher and hunched her neck. She had to admit, it was quite cold at night.
Seeing Su Ding's naive and innocent demeanor, she felt a sense of satisfaction in her desire to be a mentor, and lowered her voice to continue, "Have you heard about CEO Jin's ex-wife?"
"I... I've heard of her," Su Ding nodded, thinking to herself: What does that have to do with me?
"His ex-wife, Su Ding, is an artist under our company. Before meeting CEO Jin, she was a single mother. And CEO Jin had a rumored girlfriend of five years, who was very attractive, but she was never officially recognized."
Wan Fang revealed her gossipy side, speaking with great interest, "Until CEO Jin met Su Ding. You say that Su Ding is beautiful, but with CEO Jin's status, aren't all the women he meets beautiful? He specifically took a liking to a woman with a child. What does that tell you?"
"What does it tell me?" Su Ding asked along.
"Silly! It means he's into that kind of thing." Wan Fang's deduction was logical and well-reasoned, even impressing Su Ding, who had to admit, "Impressive."
Seeing Su Ding's bewildered state, Wan Fang snorted again, "So, are you still going in?"
She was prepared to hear Su Ding say no.
However, in the next moment, Su Ding spoke, "Thank you, Sister Fang. I'm going."
"Hey, I'm telling you..."
Wan Fang was furious. Had she just been talking for nothing? In her haste, she reached out to grab Su Ding's arm.
But then, a gloomy and displeased voice sounded from behind.
"Scram!"
Oh no! It was Jin Ye's enraged voice.
Wan Fang's body froze as if time had stopped, her mind plunging into endless panic and regret.
Gradually, her head began to move.
She saw the tall, straight, handsome, yet cold and gloomy face behind her.
Buzz!
Her mind buzzed. In a panic, she started apologizing frantically, "I'm sorry, CEO Jin, I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have spoken ill of you behind your back, I'll leave now!"
She backed away as she spoke, but then she noticed Su Ding hadn't moved, standing there as if nothing had happened.
"Go!"
Wan Fang was speechless. Was this woman brainless? Why was she still standing there when CEO Jin was furious?!
She kindly reminded Su Ding to leave, but Su Ding slowly raised her head.
Then she pulled off her mask.
She took off her hat.
Su Ding smiled faintly at her and apologized, "Sorry, I'm Su Ding."
"I'm here to find my husband."
She pointed at Jin Ye, who was so handsome even when angry, standing beside her, "It's him."
Wan Fang was stunned, staring blankly at the scene before her.
This woman...
She, she... this woman was Su Ding?!
CEO Jin's wife, the madam of Huang Qi Group, her boss's wife?!
They weren't divorced?!
Oh my god!
What had she just been doing?
She had tried to seduce her boss in front of his wife and gossiped about her boss behind his back!
She had just accidentally indulged her gossipy nature, only to have the person herself right in front of her without realizing it?!
"Miss... Miss Su... so you are Miss Su..."
After her stupor, Wan Fang's body began to tremble. She rushed forward and grabbed Su Ding's hand, "I'm sorry, I just... I just... I..."
"I'm shameless! I'm despicable!"
Wan Fang cursed herself while slapping her own face, her voice filled with panic.
She didn't want to be fired! Huang Qi was such a good company with such excellent benefits; she really didn't want to leave!
It was all her fault for being blinded by greed!
"Miss Su, please forgive me, I will never do anything so foolish again..."
Wan Fang cried, her grip on Su Ding's hand growing tighter.
