Chapter 77: You Did That On Purpose, Right?

  "General Manager, I can vouch for Xiaoyue's character, she would never do such a thing. I think there must be some misunderstanding here," Minister Yang continued to say. "Maybe this is ak7's conspiracy, they have always wanted to dig up Xiaoyue's past but were rejected every time, so they harbored resentment and stole Xiaoyue's experimental data to apply for a patent! This would create the illusion that Xiaoyue betrayed the company, striking both our company and driving Xiaoyue away! General Manager, we can't fall into their trap!"

  Director Yang recited the dog-blood plot written by Yang Liu in one breath, even though he himself knew that such an excuse was far-fetched. As a director, he couldn't just watch his subordinates suffer unjustly.

  After finishing speaking, Director Yang gritted his teeth and lowered his head, preparing to face the general manager's roar.

  Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, Gu Wangchuan spoke in a calm and unhurried tone, "Makes sense."

  Director Yang was stunned, no way, did the general manager actually agree with him?!

  He plucked up his courage and hastily pleaded for Lin Yue'er, "General Manager, won't Little Yue have to take a long vacation? Our R&D department really can't do without this girl..."

  Gu Wangchuan put down the pen in his hand, and his thick eyebrows slightly raised, "Let her take the initiative to resign."

  Director Yang's excited glow on his face vanished in an instant, and he looked dull, "General Manager!"

  Gu Wangchuan obviously didn't want to talk about it anymore, waved his hand and said, "Get out."

  "Director Yang was anxious, "General Manager, please reconsider this matter! It has nothing to do with Xiao Yue! Moreover, dismissing her would be a loss for the company! In terms of professional achievements, no one in the company can surpass Xiao Yue's accomplishments! General Manager, you must think thrice!"

  "I've made up my mind, I'm going out." Gu Wangchuan's face darkened.

  "General Manager..." Minister Yang refused to give up and wanted to persuade again, but Gu Wangchuan suddenly slapped the table, "Didn't you hear what I said? Get out!"

  Seeing Xiao Zong's display of authority, Director Yang, no matter how many words he had left to say, could only swallow them and retreat from the office with a sigh.

  Gu forgot the river, suppressing his anger in his chest. He picked up the documents on the table and wanted to continue reading, but he couldn't get a single word in. Irritated, he swept everything off the table onto the floor, stood up abruptly, walked to the window, pushed it open, and let the cool autumn wind blow in.

  As her superior, Lin Yueer's importance was clearer to him than anyone else. However, he couldn't just leave her at the company as if nothing had happened after all this! Moreover, once she underwent an abortion, her body would definitely be weakened...

  He muttered a curse under his breath, thinking about her pregnancy, Gu Wangchuan couldn't relax, all the troubles, hatred and disgust were all because of her! That woman had the ability to affect him, making him become irritable and short-tempered!

  At dinner time, Hua Yi deliberately made a few more dishes that Lin Yueer liked. In order not to disappoint Hua Yi's good intentions, Lin Yueer reluctantly ate a few bites.

  Seeing her pale face, Hua Yi anxiously said, "Young Mistress, are you ill? I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow to take a look."

  Gu Xi Cen sat across from her, looking up at her with a glance.

  "Flower Auntie, I'm fine, really! It's just that I've been working too late recently and feeling a bit overwhelmed."

  "Miss, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but locking yourself in the lab for a whole day without eating or drinking, how can your body take it? You're still young, you can't treat your body like that!"

  "Aunt Hua, I know, I'll be more careful next time."

  "It's fine as long as you know." Flower Aunt refilled the bowl with chicken soup, "Young Mistress, you've lost a lot of weight recently, you need to nourish yourself more."

  "Thank you, Aunt Hua."

  Lin Yue took over, the chicken soup was cooked just right, with no greasiness and a light delicious flavor. But Lin Yue could smell it, her stomach still couldn't stop churning. Afraid that Hua Niang would suspect something, she forced herself to hold back and took a small sip.

  "Flower Auntie," Gu Xi Cen suddenly spoke up, "help me pour a cup of water."

  "Good." As soon as Hua Yi turned around and left the dining room, Gu Xi Cen took over the chicken soup in her hand, tilted her head to drink it all up, and then handed the empty bowl back.

  Lin Yue'er was taken aback, took over the empty bowl, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

  Hua Yi poured a cup of water and saw Lin Yue'er drink all the soup. She was so happy that she praised her directly.

  At this time, the sound of a sports car roaring outside was heard.

  Lin Yue's hand trembled and the chopsticks almost slipped out.

  She took a deep breath, pretending to be calm, and continued sitting there, lowering her head to eat.

  Gu Xi Cen had indeed calculated correctly that her big brother would return tonight and didn't find it unexpected.

  "Big young master, where have you been for the past two days? You didn't even call home?"

  Gu Wangchuan didn't say a word, and walked straight into the dining room. His gaze passed over his younger brother and landed directly on Lin Yue. In a cold tone, he said, "Go upstairs, I have something to say." After that, he turned around and went upstairs.

  Hua Yi frowned and her eyes darted back and forth between the two, it was clear that Young Master and Young Madam were at odds again.

  Lin Yue'er bit her lip and was about to put down her chopsticks when the usually quiet Gu Xi Cen spoke up, "Finish eating before going up."

  "Right, right, right! No matter what, we have to finish dinner first!"

  Lin Yue'er shook her head and forced a smile, "I'm full."

  She didn't have much of an appetite to begin with, and seeing Gu Wangchuan made her even less able to eat. It's better to just talk it out, anyway, it's inevitable.

  She stood up and left the dining room, going upstairs.

  "Aunt Hua sighed, "Alas, what's wrong with these two again? The young master is also like this, he doesn't know how to cherish such a good wife, and in the future, he'll probably regret it."

  Gu Xi Cen slowly raised her eyes, gazing at her back, and slightly furrowed her brow.

  Arriving upstairs and standing in front of the door, Lin Yueer's mood was unlike her usual self at the company. The events that had occurred within a day seemed to have lasted an eternity, weighing heavily on her heart.

  She closed her eyes, slowly opened them again, and pushed open the door to walk in.

  Gu Wangchuan sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for her. As soon as she came in, his gaze was fixed on her belly, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and his voice was full of questioning, "Why didn't you take your medicine?"

  Lin Yue'er didn't react in time, "What?"

  Gu Wangchuan raised his cold eyes and stared at her, "After making love, you need to take post-coital medicine, this is common sense, don't you understand?"

  Lin Yue'er's face was usually pale, but now it looked even more unsightly.

  How did he know?!

  Gu Wangchuan saw her reaction and suddenly sneered, "Or should I say, you deliberately wanted to get pregnant with this child?"

  Lin Yue'er's mind suddenly went blank, she didn't dare believe it and didn't want to believe that he would say such a thing.
