My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 17: 17 He is still denying_1

If Gu Yuanzhou cheated and murdered me in my previous life.

Then, upon knowing that I have reincarnated, he would surely plot to kill me again.

Therefore, I cannot let Gu Yuanzhou know about any of this.

If word gets out, it would pose a great risk to me.

However, I know Ding Yinuo well enough to understand that he wouldn’t do something like this.

Although this man has always been my enemy, his character and values are decent. Aside from making frequent nuisances of himself, he has not done anything unconscionable.

I said with a smile.

“l never thought I’d see the day you’d become Gu Yuanzhou’s lapdog!’

Ding Yinuo shot me a glance and snorted coldly.

“You sure are mouthy!” “Take me home. I feel a bit dizzy!’

I did feel quite unwell.

I had drunk too much and my stomach was already uncomfortable. After blacking out, I had no idea when I stumbled out of the booth and collapsed on the bench.

Being jostled around by him made me feel like vomiting, which I managed to suppress.

Ding Yinuo, who was busy driving, did not notice my discomfort and asked instead.

“What are you trying to achieve, impersonating Song Yun?”

“You’ve been stalking me?”

“Honestly, your acting is terrible! Those brainless women might not notice, but don’t think you can fool me!”

“Insane! Can you please drive properly? I’m feeling quite sick from all this swaying! t

But Ding Yinuo seemed relentless, not only driving fast but also swerving back and forth. Half an hour later when he stopped the car and 1 got out, the sight of vomit all over the seat turned his face black.

I looked at him with a smile,

“l guess we’re even now!”

“You know what? Stop pretending to be Song Yun, you’re not worthy!”

Ding Yinuo sneered and cursed at me. 1 gave him a blurry drunken gaze.

“You’re not worthy either! ”

In fact, I was quite curious. Ding Yinuo has been my competitor for so many years and I thought he would hold a deep grudge against me.

Never did I expect him to stand up for me at a time like this. It was truly surprising.

However, my mind was as muddled as mud due to the alcohol. Too lazy to handle him further, I returned to my rented room with my bag on my back.

Shut the door, time to sleep!

When I woke up the next day, I realized that I had missed several calls.

Three of them were from Gu Yuanzhou.

And seven were from Ye Mengyan!

Both of them called me around the same time.

What did they want to talk about?

It was already 9 AM. I woke up too late and had no time to ponder what they wanted to discuss.

I quickly took a shower, and after washing off the alcohol, I hurriedly rushed to the office.

Despite running most of the way, I was still three minutes late.

What was embarrassing was.

I bumped into Gu Yuanzhou at the time clock machine.

Dressed in a suave suit, he walked out of the elevator full of vigor, followed by a group of senior executives from the company.

This man naturally exuded an intense presence. Wherever he went, employees would bow and greet him.

It was like he was the emperor making a grand appearance.

I was slightly taken aback.

He suddenly left the crowd and walked towards me. He glanced at his wristwatch and seemed dissatisfied with my conduct, reprimanding me on the spot with a cold expression.

“Why are you only arriving now?”

“l, err, President Gu, I’m sorry, I got caught in traffic and arrived late!”

“You’re aware of our company’s strict regulations. You as my assistant should serve as a role model, yet deliberately break the rules.” Gu Yuanzhou’s stern tone made me hang my head in shame.

“I’m sorry, it won’t happen again!”

“Verbal promises are not enough. Write a self-reflection! Look at yourself critically. Also, write clearly about the mistakes you have made recently at work.’

I didn’t know how I had offended Gu Yuanzhou.

Early in the morning, he had already displayed his authority.

Then in the afternoon meeting, he publicly criticized me for grave mistakes in my work.

I was wondering if Gu Yuanzhou had seen me getting close with Ding Yinuo and was planning on firing me, hence all this preparation?

But what 1 absolutely didn’t expect was.

At the end of the day, he called me in alone.

By now, most employees had already left.

Gu Yuanzhou sat in his black leather swivel chair, his handsome face expressionless.

This man always had that kind of ability. When he wasn’t smiling, his serious face could be intimidating.

Particularly those probing eyes, they left you with nowhere to hide.

He looked deeply at me.

“What did you see yesterday?”

I thought quickly.

No matter what Gu Yuanzhou had previously done, I can’t confront him yet.

I need to uncover the truth about the fire, so even if I’m angry now, I have to hold it in.

“President Gu! Whatever you want me to see, I will see it and whatever you don’t want me to see, 1 will turn a blind eye to it!”

A standard answer from an experienced office worker.

After I finished speaking, Gu Yuanzhou gave me a long, scrutinizing look with slightly narrowed eyes.

“Why did you bring Ye Mengyan to me last time?”

Gu Yuanzhou also was shrewd. He was trying to test me.

“Well, I’m friends with Miss Ye. 1 saw that she had talent in design, so I wanted to introduce her to our company.”

There was no sign of reassurance in Gu Yuanzhou’s gaze. He continued to ask.

“Did she speak to you about our relation?”

“Do President Gu and her have a relationship?”

With this counter-question, Gu Yuanzhou avoided my gaze, not looking at me but diverting his eyes instead.

“That girl, I sponsored her throughout university. She does have some talent but is not suitable for our company.”

Gu Yuanzhou’s explanation was quite bland and formal. It seemed like he was just trying to placate me.

He then stood up and walked towards me.

“l value your talent very much and see a bright future for you in this company.

But sometimes, certain things better left unsaid shouldn’t be spoken.”

“Thank you for your guidance, President Gu!”

I knew this was another manipulation of Gu Yuanzhou also.

He caused trouble for me in the morning, but then dropped a sweet date now.

Using a combination of kindness and sternness.

His only goal was to keep me silent about his relationship with Ye Mengyan.

As I walked out of his office, my phone rang again.

This time, it was still a call from Ye Mengyan.

I answered the phone.

“Xiaoyun, you didn’t answer my call last night, 1 was worried about you!’ “Ah, Mengyan, sorry, something came up and I had to leave early! What do you need?”

“l want to talk to you about Gu Yuanzhou and me!”
