Chapter 1575 - 1557
"Lady Chu, the person has been brought." One of the men said.
"It’s not your concern anymore, all of you can leave." A woman’s voice, judging by the tone, she must be from some prestigious family.
After the group of men left, the view became clear, sitting on the sofa, isn’t that Chu Ge’s mother!
Stunned for a moment, "Hello, Auntie."
Oh my, if I had known it was her, I wouldn’t have run. It must be that stranger who reported that he couldn’t catch her, and that’s why Chu Ge’s mother sent so many black-clothed men. I guess my impression score just took a dive, probably no score left.
"Come over and sit."
"Oh," obediently sitting on the sofa, "I wonder what brings Auntie to request me?" Act—must act all soft and delicate.
"Ah, it seems Lady Mu doesn’t appreciate the invitation."
"No, no, I didn’t know it was you. Had I known, I wouldn’t have fought back."
Chu Ge’s mother glanced at her, "I just wanted to see, what kind of girl could captivate Chu Ge to the point he won’t even listen to me."
"Chu Ge listens to you the most," continued the act.
"I’ve arranged a marriage for Chu Ge, yet he’s adamantly refusing. Later, I found out that you came to Z City. I know Miss An is a straightforward person. So, go ahead, name your price, how much?"
"What?"
She looked at her, puzzled, not understanding what she meant.
"Leave Chu Ge! Name your price! I know girls nowadays love money." Chu Ge’s mother shook the goblet in her hand, elegantly taking a sip of wine.
Deep breath! "Auntie, I think you misunderstood."
"There’s no misunderstanding, in this society, money rules!" Chu Ge’s mother said arrogantly.
Beyond tolerance! There’s no need to tolerate!
She suddenly stood up, causing Chu Ge’s mother to be visibly startled.
"Auntie, I think you misunderstood. When I liked Chu Ge, I had no idea he was your group’s Eldest Young Master! My feelings for him aren’t something that can be measured with money!
Back in high school, I liked Chu Ge. For him, I sacrificed my parents’ expectations, gave up the chance to go to Stanford University, and came alone to F University!
For Chu Ge, I learned to wear dresses and high heels! Everything I did wasn’t because he is your son, it’s simply because he is Chu Ge!" Said it all in one breath, completely forgetting who was sitting in front of her—Chu Ge’s mother.
After speaking, she realized her tone was too excited!
Oh no, this impression score is probably in the negatives.
Chu Ge’s mother looked at her for a long time, so long that she felt she should apologize for her earlier words.
"Auntie, I’m sorry, I got too excited just now." Flexibility is strength; a simple sorry is nothing.
"I’ll have the driver take you home." Chu Ge’s mother said, seemingly lost in thought.
She walked out of Chu Ge’s house, head down, waiting at the doorway for the driver. Occasionally glancing back, the life of the wealthy is indeed different. Though her family isn’t considered wealthy, they are comfortably middle-class. She always thought Chu Ge’s family was just running a small company that could afford such a house, but such a house can’t simply be afforded by a small company; Chu Ge, the gap between us is growing ever larger.
A black car stopped in front of me; rich families have big houses, and many cars...
Everything tonight felt like a scene from a novel: Cinderella wishing to marry the white horse prince, only for the prince’s mother to tear them apart. Her feelings for Chu Ge can’t be weighed with money! She pulls out her phone, hesitating whether to call Chu Ge, when suddenly the phone rings...
"Hello, Lin Yu," she said weakly.
"What’s up?" Lin Yu noticed something was off in her voice.
"It’s nothing, where are you?"
"I’m at home. Do you want to come over?"
Done with the call, she told the driver, "Sir, can you take me to Rainbow District?"
"Alright."
...
Lin Yu held a plushie, looking at her, "From the moment you walked in, I’ve seen your face elongated, what’s up? Getting bullied at work again?"
What does he mean "again," although at the company she often gets bullied—being a newcomer without connections, it’s quite normal.
She shook her head, "I feel like there’s no chance between Chu Ge and me."
"What!!" Lin Yu stared with wide eyes, surprised.
She told Lin Yu what happened today, and Lin Yu furiously said, "So what if they’re rich, does having money mean you can bully people like this? And what about Chu Ge?"
"I didn’t see him."
"He doesn’t know about this either?"
"I don’t know." He probably doesn’t know, right? If he did know, would he stop this?
For several days she’s been having meals with Chu Ge every day, and judging from Chu Ge’s reaction, he probably doesn’t know. Perhaps it’s better not to tell him.
What’s more puzzling is that their boss suddenly changed his attitude towards her, smiling from ear to ear, leaving her puzzled, could it be that the boss noticed her hard work?
Today she arrived at work earlier than usual. With the boss favoring her, everything seemed smoother at work, and naturally, her mood brightened. Walking into the office, previously no one would greet her, now everyone nodded and smiled at her; her future looks bright...
Huh? Someone came even earlier than her, is it the boss? Since when did the boss become so diligent? He usually shows up around eight or nine, is that a female voice???
Oh no. They’re coming out, can’t let the boss discover she knows about the meeting in the office, or else her bright future would be ruined.
Where to hide? Run out of the office, take the stairs! The boss never takes the stairs! Hide at the staircase corner, that woman’s voice sounds so familiar.
"Lady Chu, take care!"
Lady Chu?? Chu Ge’s mother! What is she doing at our company?
She was just focused on running with her head down, exerting too much force, causing a collision like Mars crashing into Earth!
"Ouch," the other person fell backward.
"Mu Bingtong!!" The boss roared, "Lady Chu, are you alright? Lady Chu, let me help you up."
What?
"I’m sorry, I’m so sorry," she apologized quickly, seeing the boss’s face turning green, she thought to herself, ’This is bad.’
And looking at Chu Ge’s mother, her expression wasn’t looking much better! She gave her a fierce glare and said to the boss, "Make it happen quickly, the sooner the better!" Then she stepped down the stairs in heels.
She stood like a child who did something wrong before the boss’s desk, "Boss, I’m sorry, it wasn’t intentional."
"Mu Bingtong, how is it that I can’t see a shred of femininity in you?" The boss said helplessly.
Where does she lack femininity? She has everything that other girls have!
"Um, boss, I didn’t expect you to take the stairs."
