Ye Mengyan had completely lost control at this point.
She was devoid of her usual grace.
She was grabbing tightly onto my sleeve, yelling hysterically like a shrew,
“Did you deliberately seduce Gu Yuanzhou?”
I pulled her hand off, smiling gently,
“Miss Ye, Gu Yuanzhou is single. Let’s not use the word ‘seduce’, it sounds so unpleasant. Could you please pull yourself together? People are watching.”
Upon my reminder, Ye Mengyan snapped back to reality and let go of my sleeve.
Several coworkers had already formed small clusters, observing the spectacle from the distance.
Ye Mengyan bit her lower lip and turned to leave.
At noon, I still invited Xu Yun and Old Ma to have lunch outside, my treat.
“Sorry, Old Ma. President Gu got horribly drunk last night, and I forgot to let you know. I kept you waiting, so this meal is on me.”
“No worries, it’s nothing!”
Old Ma didn’t take it personally. After being around Gu Yuanzhou for so many years, Old Ma got used to his habits.
If he was not informed by eleven o’clock, he would naturally go home to sleep instead of waiting all night…
However, the situation was far from ideal for Ye Mengyan.
After returning to the company from lunch,
I saw Old Ma being beckoned to the break room by Ye Mengyan, to which I quietly followed.
“Old Ma, what do you mean by this? Last night, that little vixen Song stayed overnight with President Gu. Why didn’t you report it to me?”
“Miss Ye, I didn’t know anything about it!”
“How could you not? Isn’t it you who drove President Gu to the hotel?”
“It was me who drove him, but I didn’t know where they went afterward.”
Old Ma started to explain, but Ye Mengyan was livid, her voice becoming increasingly shrill, and began to loudly berate and accuse him.
“Old Ma, you’re doing this on purpose. You’ve clearly accepted benefits from that vixen. How much money did she give you to betray me?”
“Miss Ye, I am not that kind of person!”
“You are exactly that kind of person. If you can take money from me, you can take money from Song Xiaoyun. I had you wrong, you’re a disgrace, you deserve to be a driver for the rest of your life. You know what, cross me again and I’ll have President Gu fire you!”
My lips curled slightly, the day had finally come when Ye Mengyan would call me a vixen. Funny.
At this Outburst, Old Ma was startled,
“Miss Ye, you can’t fire me! You have to be reasonable, my whole family depends on this job! Folk has it that taking people’s livelihood is akin to grave robbery. If you do that, I’ll expose all the bad things you’ve done!”
“You dare threaten me? How dare you, a subordinate, threaten me?”
“Miss Ye, don’t forget. Earlier this year, the batch of poisonous health products was delivered by me following your orders. If I tell the police, you’ll be the real criminal.”
At these words, my heart clenched up suddenly.
Even though I had suspicions previously, the shock was still considerable when I heard Old Ma confirming them.
It actually was Ye Mengyan.
She tried to poison the Song family all along?
