A dreamless night.
The next day, at the restaurant
After the birthday, Venus Mu had not said a word to Kerry Ye and she would like to see Kerry be like
this for the rest of his life, as if she didn’t exist. However, Kerry seemed to be in a very bad mood,
always finding fault with her during the meal, complaining that the salt was too much or the sugar,
causing Mrs. Qin to tremble, and she even cried in the kitchen.
After her meal, she said to him for the first time during these days, “I’m going to work today.”
Kerry glanced at the wound on her neck, which was still obvious, and his tone was unpleasant, “Don’t
forget the silk scarf.”
Venus put down the chopsticks in her hand and sneered, “Is Mr. Ye also afraid of people gossiping?”
After all, Venus’s injury was too special for people not to think much about it.
“If you still want to be in the company, don’t challenge my bottom line, because I can let you go at any
time.”
Venus pushed her chair away, standing up to look down at him with a smile, “ok, you’re the boss.”
…
The weather was getting colder, so there was nothing strange about a scarf around the neck, but
wearing it all day in the office was not normal at all.
During the break time, Lina walked to Venus’s desk. Looking at her scarf, she snickered, “Venus, where
did you buy this scarf? Is it the new one this year?”
Venus shook her head, “No, I bought it this time last year.”
“It’s beautiful!” Lina said enviously, “But you’ve been wearing it all day, don’t you feel hot?”
“No! Not at all. I had a fever the other day, didn’t I? And I still feel a little cold.” Venus was talking
nonsense in a serious way.
Lina smiled wryly and looked like she knew what she was doing, “I don’t believe you.”
Venus’s eyelids twitched as she covered the silk scarf and said, “There’s no such thing. Don’t think too
much.”
“Hey, what are you nervous about? It’s not just some marks made by Mr. Ye. There’s nothing to be shy,
we’re all adults now.” After she said so, the laughter sounded all around.
But Venus was so embarrassed, but she couldn’t retort anything.
But if they knew this was a scar, she wondered what kind of expression they would have.
“Lina!” Venus pretended to scold petulantly.
Lina said, “Alright, alright, what a naïve girl. Goodbye.”
Venus was only relieved.
During lunch time, Venus, Xiaozhang, Lina and a few others went out to eat. On the way, she always
felt that someone was following her, and when she turned back, she couldn’t see anyone.
“Venus, what are you always looking back?” Xiaozhang asked.
Venus shook her head, “Nothing. Maybe I haven’t been out for too long.”
Lina held her arm and said pleasingly, “Venus, I’m telling you something. Be careful.”
“What is it?”
“It’s that last time when Mr. Ye invited everyone to dinner, you were drunk and Mr. Ye sent you back,
but Xinyou said something at the table.”
Venus got interested, “What?”
“She said she’s trying to take Mr. Ye away. And you weren’t there for the past few days and I saw her
out several times, but I don’t know if she went to Mr. Ye’ s office.”
Xiaozhang added, “Yes, this woman is scheming. Venus, you are just too kind and still treat her as a
good friend. You must hold on to a good man like Mr. Ye, or you’ll be regret.”
Venus thanked them, but inside, she was hoping that Xinyou could quickly snatch Kerry away, for she
didn’t want to hold on to that bastard at all.
“Well, thank you guys, I will.” Venus said politely.
Xiaozhang and Lina looked at each other, for their goal of today’s meal had been achieved, who were
mainly just to be friendly.
Venus had talent and there was also Kerry supporting her, so she must be useful in the future. There
was no harm getting close to her.
…
Yehuang Group
Henry reported on Venus’s day, who went out for lunch with colleagues, bought a dress at a nearby
mall and bought a cupcake on the way home from work, but there was no contact with any people.
“Keep an eye on her.”
“Yes, young master.”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door from outside.
Kerry frowned, now that everyone’s off duty at this time, who else was there?
He told Henry to open the door. Outside stood Xinyou, who was still carrying the hotel’s lunch box in
her hand.
“Is Kerry…Mr. Ye here?” Xinyou asked.
Henry turned his head to look at Kerry, who nodded. Then Henry let her in.
“What are you doing here?” Kerry was cold. And he didn’t know why he had lost interest in this woman,
with only that one night’s love holding him up.
