Chapter 744 Leaving Tianya Group
"This... that..." Ye Shikai trembled all over, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured from his head to his feet. His eyes scanned the female colleagues around him, and somehow, they had all stepped aside, eating cake as if nobody was there...
Why must it be like this? Weren't they just reluctant to part moments ago? Now, they seem to desperately want to sever ties, Ye Shikai looked left and right, silently complaining in his heart.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. At this time, whoever comes over to mediate might be labeled by Su Qingyu as "seducing the president's husband," which is like playing with fire. In their eyes, Ye Shikai is just handsome and capable, after all, they don't know Ye Shikai's real identity. They must think this way, Su Qingyu is the president, accustomed to being strong, Ye Shikai might be just a son-in-law.
"Where are your eyes looking? And you all, get back to work after lunch break." An Lan feigned anger, and with those words, all the women scattered, burying their heads in their desks, not daring to raise their heads.
"I didn't… look." Ye Shikai said aggrievedly, then offered the cake with both hands, "There's a big piece left, do you want it?"
"Come with me." Su Qingyu said coldly, and after speaking, she walked out of the PR department, Ye Shikai stood up, like a primary student who had made a mistake, called out by the teacher, Ye Shikai just walked a few steps and glanced back, unintentionally making eye contact with Wanna standing aside, she even showed a smile, as if to say, fend for yourself.
Presidential Office.
"You're impressive, just coming back and you can't wait to see a flock of swallows, pigeons?" Su Qingyu sat in the boss chair, staring at Ye Shikai, the feeling was like when they first met.
"Qingyu, the cake was their treat, I really didn't know there was a surprise party." Ye Shikai, as if greatly wronged, was nearly in tears, truly more wrongful than Dou E.
"Hmph, I think you want to juggle multiple women, being a rapist, even under my watch." Su Qingyu seemed not willing to let it go, still serious, making Ye Shikai start to wonder, wouldn't she really be jealous and angry, knowing that women's jealousy is unreasonable, the more explanation, the guiltier it appears. Also, no one knew they were back in the country, even An Lan didn't know, so how could the female colleagues in the PR department have prepared in advance?
At this thought, Ye Shikai also became curious, yeah, how did they know? While thinking, Ye Shikai became absent-minded, naturally not paying attention to what Su Qingyu was saying, which made Su Qingyu explode, being ignored.
"Jerk." Su Qingyu threw the box of tissues on the table, hitting Ye Shikai's face directly.
"Qingyu, you... don't be mad." Ye Shikai stepped forward to comfort, "You know what I think of you, those women are just colleagues at most."
"But now you are my husband, everyone in the company is watching, huh, if it weren't for Lanlan and me going there today, perhaps you would have flirted with some other little butterflies." Su Qingyu snorted coldly, always showing an icy face in the company, it wasn't that she meant to be angry, but it was a performance for others.
"When I originally went to the PR department, you didn't oppose either ..." Ye Shikai murmured.
"Starting tomorrow, stop staying at the PR department." That remark from Su Qingyu shocked Ye Shikai even more.
"Why."
"I am the president, I don't need a reason to let someone go." Su Qingyu said lightly.
"So I'm just fired like that." Ye Shikai felt very wronged, just over such a trivial matter, did Su Qingyu really get that jealous, just over a cake from female colleagues.
"There are too many people in the company, and I'm worried they will gossip about us." Su Qingyu quickly explained, and with that, Ye Shikai finally understood. He hadn't considered this, perhaps because they had concealed their marriage news before, so he was used to staying in the PR department. Now that the entire company knew about this, if Ye Shikai stayed, people would gossip, and as the president and his wife, Su Qingyu would attract a lot of idle talk.
"Qingyu, did you hear some idle gossip?" Seeing Su Qingyu so resolute, Ye Shikai also guessed it. When he returned to the company today, the employees seemed to have all changed their attitudes toward him and were secretly talking about something.
Su Qingyu was probably upset by hearing people behind slander Ye Shikai; since she loved Ye Shikai, hearing someone talk ill of him was harder to endure than a stab to the heart.
"Did they say I'm a gigolo, or a so-called phoenix man?" Ye Shikai said lightly.
"You don't need to speak." Su Qingyu firmly said, "It's my decision, none of your concern."
"Okay then, if that's the case, I respect your decision." Ye Shikai nodded and poured a cup of fragrant tea, handing it to Su Qingyu.
"Actually, you shouldn't care so much about others' words, I'm thick-skinned anyway, they are just a bunch of onlookers." Ye Shikai said with a smile.
"I am now your wife, protecting your reputation is also my responsibility." Su Qingyu slams the table, making Ye Shikai jump.
"When you originally joined the company, it was just a nominal position, it might be better to take this opportunity to leave." After calming down, Su Qingyu said lightly, "Netherworld Palace still needs you."
"Yes, Qingyu, I'll listen to you on this." Ye Shikai nodded his head. Indeed, since they both knew each other thoroughly, some things need not be hidden anymore.
....................................
"What, you are leaving." When he returned to the department, Ye Shikai first went to find An Lan and told her about the decision.
"Yes, Qingyu and I have agreed." Ye Shikai nodded, An Lan did not understand the thing about him being the Netherworld King, nor did she understand Su Qingyu's intentions. Actually, the reason why she insisted on Ye Shikai leaving Tianya Group was to take care of his self-esteem. Since their trip to France, Su Qingyu finally understood how powerful and influential her "phoenix man" husband was. Compared to that, Tianya Group was like "a small store" in the eyes of Netherworld Palace. Being accustomed to the lofty status of Netherworld King, how could he face the employees' gossip and even insults? Even if Ye Shikai didn't mind, she did care deeply.
"Then... will you... come back from time to time?" An Lan's eyes flashed with sorrow, her lips quivering slightly.
