Chapter 2 — I am no longer anyone's ladder

"Thua Chu told me before. You two are just normal classmates. You keep using the excuse that the two elders know each other, forcing him to eat with you, forcing him to return to Van Chau, and saying that if he doesn't agree with you, the project will not be approved."

Someone asked in a low voice:

"Really or fake? Isn't she a member of Headquarters?"

The curly haired woman took out her phone.

"Of course it's true. General Director Luc said it himself."

She held up the chat for the people next to her to see. 【Nam Chi took out documents to make things difficult for him again. She doesn't want me to stand firmly in Nam Thanh.】 【Nien An, I'm afraid she will harm you. Don't meet her alone.】 【I've already told her clearly. The person I love is you.】 【Her family has some relationship, I can't turn back for now.】 Every sentence and every word is like a pre-prepared dialogue. I looked at the phone screen. Suddenly I understood why Luc Thua Chu always tried to keep me in Van Chau. He is not temporarily confused. He had been preparing for a long time. Preparing to turn our six-year engagement into one-sided stalking of me. Hua Niem An took half a step back. It looked like he had just suffered an injustice as big as the sky.

"Miss Wen, I know you're not willing."

"But feelings cannot be forced."

I asked her:

"Luc Thua Chu told you that he doesn't have a fiancee?"

She bit her lip.

"He said he was forced into every way by her."

"She always uses her elders to pressure him."

I looked at Hua Niem An.

"So did he tell you..."

"Who helped him win Truong Dieu's Nam Thanh branch?"

The curly haired woman immediately smirked.

"You should stop painting your face with gold."

"The Nam Thanh project was won by General Director Luc who stayed up all night."

"Ms. Niem An even followed him around the venue until midnight."

"What does it have to do with you?"

I haven't had time to speak yet. The elevator door opened. Luc Thua Chu walked out. Behind is a team in charge of the project. Just saw me. His steps clearly stopped. Hua Niem An immediately ran over and grabbed his sleeve.

"Thua Chu, I didn't mean to cause trouble."

"Miss On suddenly came here and said you stole her things."

Luc Thua Chu looked at me. Then looked at the people standing there watching. A few seconds later. He pulled Hua Niem An behind him.

"Why did you come here?"

I calmly replied:

"Coming to see the project you mentioned requires staying up all night."

He lowered his voice.

"There's a lot of people here."

"Don't make a fuss."

"If anything happens, go back to the hotel and talk."

I pointed to the photo hanging in the hall.

"And these..."

"Is it also because of work?"

Luc Thua Chu frowned slightly.

"It's just propaganda."

"Don't bring the temperament of the young lady from Van Chau here to scare people."

Hua Niem An's hand still clutched his sleeve.

"Thua Chu..."

"Forget it."

"If Ms. On wants to scold you, just scold me."

Luc Thua Chu immediately turned to look at me. The tone is heavy.

"On Nam Chi."

"Sorry Niem An."

The whole hall was so quiet that only the sound of the lantern tassels swaying could be heard. I looked at him.

"You told me..."

"Excuse her?"

"She's new to the company and doesn't understand the complicated things between you guys."

"Don't rely on yourself as a member of the General Office and then bully her."

I looked at the man I had been waiting for waited for six years. Six years ago. In the tea room of the Wen family in Van Chau. He once said. Although not based on the Luc family. He will also give me a worthy answer. Yet today. Standing in front of another woman. He asked me to apologize again... For my own blatant betrayal. I bent down. Pick up the candy box from the ground. Put it back neatly on the front desk.

"Luc Thua Chu."

"I hope you will remember today's words well."

His face immediately darkened.

"What do you mean?"

I don't answer. Just turned around and walked into the guest rest area next door. The curly haired woman smirked.

"What's the point of pretending anymore?"

"In the end, I still couldn't bear to leave."

Hua Niem An's voice is very small.

"Thua Chu..."

"Did she come to tell Chairman Luc?"

Luc Thua Chu replied without hesitation.

"No."

"She can't leave you."

That sentence fell on my ears. It's clearer than the romantic photo on the LED screen. I sat down at the rest area. Send your mom a text message again.

"Return all additional documents of Truong Dieu."

"The reason stated is..."

"The person in charge of the project has serious personal ethics problems."

Mom quickly responded. 【Are you sure?】 I looked at Luc Thua Chu who was surrounded by everyone not far away.

"I'm sure."

Afternoon. The temporary meeting room of the Nam Thanh branch was full of people. Luc Thua Chu held rehearsals for the announcement at the Light Festival tomorrow night. He deliberately told the administrative department to seat me in the last row. Hua Niem An sat next to the chairman's table. There is also a nameplate in front. There are two words clearly written on it... Fiancee. I just sat down. The curly haired woman threw a stack of script cards on my desk.
