Chapter 142 I am Gu Mo's ex-husband
Although I know that his dismissal was not entirely my fault, I still couldn't help but feel a pang of self-blame.
“Actually, you shouldn’t have been fired. It’s my fault that you lost your job,” I said in a low voice.
Zhao Ning shook her head and looked at me with a determined gaze: "It's not your fault, it's just those bored people spreading rumors. Besides, this job isn't something I truly love. Maybe this is a chance to start over."
I looked at Zhao Ning and suddenly had an idea: "Why don't you come with me to do live streaming? That way you can have a temporary job, and once you're more familiar with it, you can start your own live stream."
Zhao Ning was clearly surprised, but then smiled gratefully: "Okay, thank you for giving me this opportunity."
So I took Zhao Ning back to the office and turned on the live streaming equipment.
Shortly after the broadcast started, fans quickly flooded into the live stream room. They immediately recognized Zhao Ning, who had been trending on social media with me.
"Wow, isn't this the person who was trending on Weibo with XX?"
"What exactly is their relationship? Tell me!"
"The two of them look quite well-matched standing together."
……
Fans immediately started gossiping, and all sorts of questions came flooding in.
I smiled and explained, "Don't misunderstand, everyone. We just collaborated on an advertisement. He was drunk that day, and I just took him to the hotel. There's nothing like the messy stuff being said online."
Zhao Ning nodded in agreement, "Yes, I believe everyone encounters similar situations in life. If you have any good ways to deal with rumors, please tell us so that we don't have to be so troubled."
His warm and sincere smile quickly won the hearts of his fans.
“I’ve experienced that too. Once, when my dad was taking me to work, someone said I was being kept by a sugar daddy.”
"Me too. My brother gave me a car for my birthday, and some people said I was going to sell it."
……
The question Zhao Ning raised quickly received many responses, and many people were able to understand us.
After reading the comments, Zhao Ning said gratefully, "Thank you all for your understanding. I'd like to perform a dance for you to express my gratitude."
I covered my mouth and looked at him in disbelief. Was he really going to go this far?
I discovered that Zhao Ning is a very good dancer. His dance moves are fluid and charming, and he quickly attracted the attention of a large number of female fans.
They showered Zhao Ning with gifts, asking her to dance.
Zhao Ning was having a blast, dancing and interacting with his fans, creating an exceptionally lively atmosphere.
When Jiang Yichen returned from the meeting, he had just reached the office door when he saw Zhao Ning and me dancing happily. His face instantly darkened.
He was about to rush in and yell at people when Lin Nan stopped him with a pile of documents.
"President Jiang, these documents require your signature." Lin Nan's calm and firm voice interrupted Jiang Yichen's anger.
Jiang Yichen had no choice but to take the documents and follow Lin Nan back to the office.
As he signed the document, he kept thinking about how intimate Zhao Ning and I were, and the fire in his heart burned brighter and brighter.
When he finally finished his work and came out of the office, he saw Zhao Ning and me chatting and laughing as we waited at the elevator.
Jiang Yichen strode over and said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, didn't you say you were leaving? Why are you back again?"
I looked at Jiang Yichen with a faint smile on my face: "Who wouldn't want to make money? Besides, I'm just doing my job."
Jiang Yichen snorted coldly: "So, your way of making money is dancing with men?"
My expression changed slightly, but I quickly regained my composure: "I'm just doing a live stream and interacting with my fans. If you don't like it, you don't have to watch."
Jiang Yichen was speechless. He glared at me, then turned and walked into the elevator.
Zhao Ning and I exchanged a glance and both gave each other helpless smiles.
They knew the turmoil was not over yet, but they were prepared to face anything.
Zhao Ning was clearly still confused about the situation. He politely greeted Jiang Yichen and introduced himself, "Hello, I am Zhao Ning, Gu Mo's partner."
It was only then that I realized Zhao Ning didn't know about her relationship with Jiang Yichen. But then, Jiang Yichen's answer almost made me choke on my own saliva.
Jiang Yichen coldly replied, "Hello, I am Gu Mo's ex-husband!"
This sudden self-introduction almost scared me to death. She choked on her own saliva and coughed violently.
Seeing this, Zhao Ning immediately and considerately handed over a tissue.
Jiang Yichen slowly handed me a tissue, but he didn't say anything. He just raised an eyebrow at me, as if to say: You're dead if you dare take his tissue!
I waved my hand awkwardly, "No need, I'm fine."
I inwardly groaned; this scene was even more unbearable than shooting an advertisement.
I glanced at the time discreetly, swallowed hard, and pointed to the clock: "It's time to get off work. How about... we go home separately?"
"I send you."
The two people said in unison.
I stood up abruptly, keeping my eyes straight ahead: "No need, it's not like I can't find my way home."
With that, I quickly left the live stream room.
The two of them hurriedly followed.
I entered the elevator, and the elevator doors slowly closed. The three of us entered the elevator at the same time.
The atmosphere was terribly awkward; I felt like I'd never been in an elevator for so long in my entire life.
It was only a few minutes, but it felt like an eternity.
I stole a glance at Jiang Yichen and saw that he had a cold expression on his face, as if he wanted to lower the temperature of the entire elevator to freezing point.
Zhao Ning looked completely bewildered, unsure of what he was thinking.
I silently prayed that the elevator would reach the first floor quickly so I could escape this awkward situation as soon as possible.
However, the elevator seemed to be deliberately working against me, moving at an unusually slow pace.
After finally reaching the first floor, Zhao Ning tactfully said goodbye and left first.
I also wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but Jiang Yichen stopped me.
"Why did you add a live-streaming partner without my permission?" Jiang Yichen's tone was accusatory and dissatisfied.
I calmly replied, "I'll consider it as long as it enhances the live stream's entertainment value. Besides, there's no company rule against hiring outside help."
Jiang Yichen was speechless for a moment after being choked by my words. He stared at me with wide eyes, as if trying to find a reason to refute me, but to no avail.
Looking at Jiang Yichen's frustrated expression, I suddenly burst out laughing, feeling incredibly satisfied.
It's rare for me to see Jiang Yichen get his comeuppance; it feels so good.
Jiang Yichen's face darkened further, and he questioned me, "What are you laughing at?"
I put away my smile and said seriously, "I'm just happy to have won back a point. Besides, I didn't violate any company rules, and even President Jiang himself can't interfere with my normal work."
