Chapter 22 Jiang Xue Confronts Herself? Through a Video Call?
Rumble!
boom!
Lin Wanguo's words struck her like a dragon descending from the sky, hitting her heart hard.
Tension and panic swept over her, and even this seasoned female CEO, who had fought countless business battles, couldn't help but feel afraid.
Damn it!
Why would he think of calling the company receptionist?
Does that mean they already had suspicions?
Why is Lin Wanguo investigating her in such an unusual way today?
Didn't she always pretend so well before?
It's that little bastard Su Nan!
If he hadn't deliberately caused trouble by turning the game volume up so loud, making Lin Wanguo suspicious that she was secretly playing the game, how could such a big incident have happened?
Moreover, Lin Wanguo's implication was quite clear: he suspected that the problem wasn't caused by the heel of the high heel!
Faced with Lin Wanguo's questioning, Jiang Xue suddenly became somewhat incoherent.
Guilt overwhelmed her reason, leaving her without the confidence to refute, only hesitation remained.
It was precisely this hesitation that gave Lin Wanguo immense confidence and fueled his doubts.
"Xiaoxue, I'm asking you one last time, what are you doing? If you don't tell the truth, I'll have to call the police!"
Call the police?!
Jiang Xue's heart skipped a beat.
She had never encountered this situation before, and for a moment she was truly at a loss.
She subconsciously looked at Su Nan, hoping he would give her some advice.
however.
Su Nan, however, leaned against the headboard, looking like she was watching a show, which infuriated her.
The crucial phone was still in Su Nan's hands; she had no way of getting it back!
Faced with her warning look, Su Nan shrugged, clearly indicating that he wanted her to figure out the solution herself.
what--!
That bastard!
He caused the trouble, and now he's just washing his hands of it?
Jiang Xue was so angry that her face turned red, and her chest heaved up and down.
But she forced herself to suppress her anger, quickly calmed down, and spoke coldly into the phone.
"Lin Wanguo, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Xiaoxue, don't you know what I mean? You told me you were working overtime, but you weren't! And you made that weird noise. Do you really think I'm easy to fool? You're trying to fool a ghost."
How many years have we been together? How many years has it been since I last heard you hum like that? And then I heard it on the phone. Do you think I shouldn't have doubts about you? Besides, you know perfectly well how dissatisfied you've been with me all these years!
now.
In a fit of anger, Lin Wanguo spoke of the humiliations he had been unwilling to mention for years.
He admitted it.
He had long passed his prime, and the youthful passion he once possessed was gone.
Especially in the last two years, for the sake of the so-called second child, he really pushed the limits of his resources even when the sky was about to collapse.
Traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, acupuncture, massage, physical therapy, sentiment, mood...
In what way did he not contribute?
And the sacrifices were far more than just a little!
But can we blame him?
If anyone's to blame, it's Jiang Xue in her youth who was just too stunning.
Now they've crossed the river and burned the bridge, telling him, "You're old and useless." How can he tolerate that?
Upon hearing this...
Jiang Xue showed no mercy either.
"Enough! Lin Wanguo! You know perfectly well what's going on! What? You're not as capable as others, but you can't allow others to be better than you?"
This world is a dog-eat-dog world. If you can't compete with others, then you deserve to fall behind and be beaten! Also, you keep saying that all these years you've become like this because of me.
Then I'd like to ask, when you go out to discuss cooperation with businesses, do you try to reach eight mountains with both hands? Hehe, I'm afraid you don't know that.
Otherwise, why would you suggest going on a trip and camping with your friends? Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking, being a woman myself?
"Yes, I'm out there fooling around, so what can you do about it? You've had it all, and now other people have it too. Do you think you can be tough with me now?"
That's all.
Jiang Xue's face turned bright red, clearly indicating that she was genuinely angry.
Su Nan, who was standing to the side, was stunned.
What the hell!
Niubi!
really!
This society is not lacking in bad people, but it lacks men who can maintain their original intentions and not become bad after they have money.
Suddenly.
He became quite interested in the story of these two!
Two hands, eight mountains.
Gee!
Lin Wanguo's ambitions are quite large!
Su Nan couldn't help but click his tongue and shake his head.
Pity.
If we let him go, we'll need at least two more seats.
For no other reason than being young, enjoying adventure, rock climbing and such, which can improve core endurance and maximize self-training.
Today, he must transform into a badger in the melon patch and thoroughly enjoy the juicy gossip between them!
After all, he also got to know quite a bit of gossip from one side of the story today.
but.
Is it really a bad idea for Jiang Xue to just lay everything out like this?
His current task progress is at level 1. He hasn't completed the task, so he can't use his cheat ability.
Lin Wanguo's current status and position far surpass his, making it easy for him to target him.
Unless... he grabs Jiang Xue's leg tightly!
If Jiang Xue protects him, then everything will definitely be alright.
but.
What if it can't be guaranteed?
Then he can only resort to the Mother River's advanced technology, just like in Journey to the West!
I thought the two would have another big argument on the phone, but it was here that he got into a fight with Jiang Xue, making things even more dramatic.
however.
Silence quickly fell on the other end of the phone.
Two breaths later.
To his even greater surprise, Lin Wanguo's tone on the other end of the phone was much better.
"Xiaoxue, it's not that I don't trust you, but you're acting too strangely. As a man, it's only natural for me to react this way."
I know that with your qualifications, it would be effortless for you to look down on me all these years and look for someone else.
"Sorry, I spoke too loudly just now. I apologize. Please don't be angry. When are you coming back? I'll make you some late-night snacks."
What the hell!
No!
Wow!
Isn't he incredibly self-controlled?
We were already on the verge of suspicion, and then it just disappeared like that?
This self-prank is top-notch!
Still making late-night snacks?
I don't know.
Jiang Xue has already eaten two meals!
however.
Jiang Xue was not surprised by this. Over the years, she had come to know Lin Wanguo very well and knew his temperament and character.
As long as you act more assertive than him, all his doubts and dissatisfaction will vanish.
Because she had always acted very assertively over the years, Lin Wanguo had become accustomed to this way of getting along.
However, in her opinion, Lin Wanguo is a typical masochist!
She definitely doesn't like him like that!
Even the strongest woman has a little woman inside, longing to be cared for, loved, and for a sense of security that is almost overflowing.
result.
Lin Wanguo has absolutely nothing!
On the contrary, she saw the kind of personality that Su Nan longed for.
This is also why she was half-hearted in her acceptance.
"Alright, I don't have time to waste with you. You can keep the late-night snack for yourself. I'll be back in a bit."
Jiang Xue had lost all patience and good mood, and didn't want to waste any more words with Lin Wanguo.
however.
Just as she was about to reach out and hang up the phone.
Southern Jiangsu has made its move!
A mischievous smile inexplicably appeared on his face, clearly indicating that he was not satisfied with the result just now.
Jiang Xue's expression changed drastically, and her heart skipped a beat.
broken!
That little rascal is up to no good again!
I was about to stop them.
Su Nan's finger landed precisely on the video call invitation on the call interface.
Moreover, the call has already been successfully made...
A camera suddenly appeared on the phone screen, capturing the ornately decorated ceiling above.
"Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring—!"
The notification tone for making a video call rang out instantly, like a death knell, giving her goosebumps all over her body.
And the next second.
She clearly saw several large words appear on the phone screen!
"The other party has accepted the video call invitation and is connecting..."
