My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy - Chapter 219
Chapter 219: Chapter 219: This is a Double-Edged Sword _1
Wenya came over with Baoling!
During the interview, Wenya was there the whole time by my side.
When Baoling asked me questions, I didn’t hesitate at all, even if it’s like adding insult to injury, I was determined.
Just like when I had devotedly and tirelessly built up Zhenyi Company, now, I’m going to slowly destroy it.
After the interview, my face was calm.
But Baoling seemed very excited.
“After all these years, someone finally dares to tackle Gu Yuanzhou! Honestly, I’ve heard from many people in the industry that Gu Yuanzhou, the man in charge of Zhenyi Company, is a formidable character, no one can upset him. Plus, this guy is nitpicking in his work, and you can hardly find any flaw in his business. Now he has a soft spot, let’s see how he bounces back.”
Wenya got up and asked,
“Baoling, when will this news be broadcast?”
“We’ll review it when we get back. I think we should be able to make it onto the prime-time slot at 7 pm tonight! Hehe, I have to go!”
Baoling was all smiles as she got ready to leave.
For her, landing such hot news means she could become famous from it. This is a rare opportunity indeed.
I also reminded her,
“Baoling, be careful. If something goes wrong, I’m worried that Gu Yuanzhou will send someone after you.”
Baoling took out a wolf-repellent spray from her bag and also showed me the necklace around her neck,
“See this, it’s a micro camera. If he dare messes with me, it will be broadcast live. I tell you, us entertainment journalists, we’re not much different from spies, if not mastering all skills, we can manage at least one. Rest assured, the thrill is exactly what our job is about. I have to go, bye!”
“Wait a moment!”
Although Baoling was very confident, to be on the safe side, I still had my driver take her home.
To prevent any mishaps on the road.
By the time I finished everything, it was already past five o’clock.
Wenya was on the phone with Su Peisheng, discussing Ye Mengyan’s case.
I walked over to the window and looked down.
My phone rang again, it was Ding Yinuo.
“Have you taken your medication?”
“Um, yes, I did!”
In fact, the pills were still in my bag, I hadn’t even had time to open it yet.
And these are post-meal pills, I haven’t even had time to eat yet.
But I didn’t want him to worry.
“You’re lying to me again… You haven’t had dinner yet, I’ve already ordered takeaway to be sent over. It will be there in ten minutes, remember to eat your meals and take your medication after.”
I held the phone and laughed,
“Ding Yinuo, how did you know I hadn’t taken my medication?”
“Um, I did a little calculation!”
“If you can calculate so well, then can you calculate when I’ll become rich?”
I was deliberately joking with him, trying to divert his attention, or perhaps this conversational style could help him to temporarily relax.
He laughed lightly on the other side of the phone.
“Does this even need calculating? The day you hooked up with me was the day you got rich!”
“You, cheeky!”
“Does your stomach still hurt, do you have a fever again?”
“I didn’t take my temperature, but I don’t feel like I have a fever, I feel quite spirited.”
“I heard you had a meeting this afternoon, and you invited some bosses over and signed a lot of orders for us?”
“You’re incredibly well-informed!”
“Of course, don’t forget whose turf this is! Don’t I have any informers, I wouldn’t know it if my company is taken over, wouldn’t I be a fool then?”
“Really, you have someone watching me?”
“No, not that, but my office has surveillance, so I can see you…”
“What?”
I wondered, how did he know every single move of mine.
Looking around with my phone, I noticed indeed there was a surveillance camera facing my office.
I waved towards the camera.
Ding Yinuo laughed, “So, make sure to eat well later and take your medication, otherwise I might just have to send someone to keep an eye on you.”
“Mm, got it!”
After hanging up the phone, sure enough, Ding Yinuo’s assistant came in with a takeout order.
He smiled at me and said,
“Miss Song, Manager Ding instructed me to make sure you eat well, or else my pay will be docked!”
I was like, “…”
I really hadn’t expected, Ding Yinuo had actually sent someone over to monitor my meal.
The takeout was more than ample.
Two large plastic bags contained eight takeout boxes, filled with different dishes and soup.
I spread it all out on the table. Thankfully, Wenya was here, and even both of us together couldn’t finish it all, so in the end, we called the assistant over to eat with us.
Wenya looked at the spread and gave me a thumbs-up,
“Manager Ding really cares about you! You must not disappoint him.”
I took a sip of chicken soup, falling into a thoughtful silence.
“What did you say to Su Peisheng?”
“Ah, all unpleasant stuff. Better not to bring it up.”
“I heard it, about Ye Mengyan?”
“Oh, her… Gu Yuanzhou bailed her out for three million. I heard the trial for this case won’t start until next year! Gu Yuanzhou pulled some strings, I guess.”
“So, he’s willing to do anything to protect Ye Mengyan?”
“Exactly, true love!”
I was eating dinner, popping meds in my mouth,
“He won’t get away with this for long!”
The assistant was quite efficient. After we finished eating, he cleaned up the trash and took it out.
Wenya suggested, “How about we make a trip to the Zhenyi Company?”
“What for?”
“I just want to see Gu Yuanzhou take a hit!”
“No!”
I didn’t want to go to Zhenyi Company. I didn’t even want to see Gu Yuanzhou.
But Wenya insisted persistently.
Saying something about witnessing this miraculous moment, I finally gave in, realizing it was already past work hours, and decided to go.
The night was falling slowly.
We didn’t go directly to the company, instead, along with Wenya, I chose a café opposite to the company.
Back in the days, Wenya and I often came here to have coffee. The hand-made coffee was very flavorful. The owner was a handsome young man with curly hair.
He was a strange one, sold only a hundred cups of coffee each day. After that, he’d close up shop without making another cent.
When the coffee was served, Wenya asked him laughing,
“Boss, your business is going well, why don’t you sell more and make more money?”
The boss just chuckled,
“Money is endless, but I need to go home and take care of my wife!”
“Oh, married! Congratulations!”
“Yeah, my wife is super cute, look…”
He seemed to enjoy sharing about his wife, even showing us her picture.
It was their wedding photo. The girl in it was indeed smiling brightly, sweet and lovely. However, the bride was in a wheelchair…
Wenya and I, once again, congratulated him.
“Ah, I do believe in love again!” Wenya got touched.
I was holding my coffee cup, looking out through the window at the entrance of Zhenyi Company. Gu Yuanzhou, dressed in a suit, was walking out.
He probably was done for the day and was going home.
The café owner seemed to have noticed Gu Yuanzhou too, he sighed, “They say, he is the most devoted man in A City. After his wife passed away, he has never been with anyone else.”
I was left speechless. It appeared Gu Yuanzhou’s public image was quite successful, as everyone had been deceived by him.
Suddenly, after taking a call, Gu Yuanzhou made a U-turn and retreated back inside.
Wenya tugged at my arm, “Look, look quick!”
