The hand that was tightly holding mine slowly let go.

Gu Yuanzhou slightly curled his lips,

“Woman, be content!”

“Thank you, President Gu!”

“For what?”

I did not answer him.

I simply picked up my wine glass, gently clinked his glass, and then drained it all down in one swig.

Among the men bantering happily, Gu Yuanzhou seemed like a king. At this moment, my emotions had hit rock bottom.

I finally understood that seeking fairness from him was impossible.

He was always making excuses for Ye Mengyan.

The so-called search for truth was nothing more than a well-crafted illusion meant to befuddle me so that Ye Mengyan could escape.

“Thank you, President Gu, for helping me see the truth about my own heart and your true character!”

Upon finishing this sentence, I put down my glass and walked away.

Gu Yuanzhou stood up and called out to me,

“Where are you going?”

“I think it’s time for me to leave.”

“What do you mean by ‘leave’?”

Gu Yuanzhou became a little irritated. After all, in front of so many friends, I didn’t give him any face. This made it hard for him to keep his dignity.

In the past, I cared about his mood, his face, his thoughts.

Every time there was a banquet or business social event, I would help him plan, create strategies, do research, and understand the preferences of clientele.

I prepared everything for him

From now on, I would no longer care about these things.

Facing his irritation, I remained calm and indifferent.

“I mean exactly what I said!”

“Are you leaving this dinner party, or leaving the company?”

“Both!”

I straightened my back. When I answered him, it was decisive and resolute.

“I offer you such good conditions, and you still want to leave?”

I glanced at him calmly, then turned and walked away resolutely.

He continued, “As for the proposal against the Ding Family, if you’re unwilling to do it, I’ve already found someone else who can. Trust me, within half a year, the Ding Family will be gone. Think it over.”

I could feel Gu Yuanzhou’s sharp gaze piercing my back like a knife.

But I did not stop walking.

As soon as I stepped out the door, my phone started to ring. Looking closely, it was a call from Ding Yinuo.

“Are you not answering my calls again?”

“Sorry, I didn’t see it! I was busy.”

“Come back, someone is waiting for you!”

Ding Yinuo’s voice came out from the phone, deep and warm.

It was as if a beam of warm sunlight was shining down from the clouds, dispelling much of the unhappiness in my heart.

“Return where?”

“Xishan Residence!”

“Alright, I’ll be right there!”

“Do you have any luggage? Do you need me to pick you up?”

I was taken aback by his words for a few seconds and immediately started to tear up.

How did this man know that I was going to leave Gu Yuanzhou and even bring my suitcase?

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

His voice was filled with a touch of anxious worry.

“Uh, no need, I can come by myself.”

After hanging up, I hailed a taxi to Xishan Residence.

Along the way, I watched the scenery retreat behind the car window.

It felt like the past between Gu Yuanzhou and me. I knew, whether it was love or hate, all of this would become the past forever.

Half an hour later, the car slowly arrived at the entrance of Xishan Residence.

From afar, I saw a slender figure lingering by the door.
