The elegantly dressed woman stormed into the Zhou Group, her high heels clicking sharply against the floor, as if expressing her fury. "Get that bastard Pig Zhou out here!" she demanded.
She was furious!
They were just about to finalize the contract when he suddenly backed out. Rumors had started circulating outside, causing her product sales to plummet.
This was outrageous! Was it so easy for her to make a little money?!
Zhao Yixue's brows furrowed in anger, her fists clenched tightly, and her face flushed red.
Upon reaching the thirteenth floor, she found Zhou Yang in a meeting. The secretary tried to stop her, but Zhao Yixue ignored them, angrily pushing open the conference room door. "Zhou Yang, what do you mean by this?"
Her sharp voice echoed with palpable tension in the room.
Inside the oval-shaped conference room, a group of people turned to look at the door. Zhao Yixue's anger hadn't subsided; her gaze burned with fury. As she scanned the room, her eyes landed on the person at the front, and she gasped, her body stiffening slightly.
How could he be here?
"Miss Zhao, the president is still in a meeting..." the secretary spoke up, internally lamenting: President, I've done my duty; it's just that Miss Zhao's presence is too overwhelming to handle.
The secretary stood helplessly to the side.
Zhao Yixue didn't hear what the secretary said at all. She carefully scanned everyone in the room, each one of them round and plump, looking neither old nor young. Which one of them was Zhou Yang?
It was all her fault for being too lazy and leaving the company to others, to the point where she didn't even know what her partners looked like!
Zhao Yixue couldn't help but pout, silently scolding herself as she shook her head gently.
The person who made her heart race finally spoke. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "The meeting ends here. You can leave now."
As Zhao Yixue listened to him and watched the senior executives from Zhou obediently walk out, her eyes widened in shock, her mouth slightly agape.
Yet his smile grew increasingly sinister. "I believe I have something to discuss with Miss Zhao."
She wanted to escape!
Zhao Yixue's heart raced as she turned to grasp the doorknob. The secretary glanced at her, quickly stepped forward, snatched the doorknob from her hand, and before leaving, made sure to slam the door behind her with a loud bang.
Zhao Yixue couldn't help but hold her breath, her body trembling slightly. "You... are Zhou Yang?" Her voice quivered with uncertainty.
Zhou Yang's smile was warm and inviting, his face beaming with joy. "I'm so glad we meet again, Miss Zhao. Don't you think this is fate?"
More like a twisted fate.
Zhao Yixue grimaced internally, silently cursing in her heart.
Their doomed fate could simply be described as... a one-night stand.
More than a month ago, on a certain day, Zhao Yixue looked at the children of others and found them so adorable that she longed to have one to play with. However, without a boyfriend, in a fit of frustration, she went to a bar, her eyes filled with a hint of desire and impulse, and flirted with a seemingly handsome man...
Unfortunately, the flower bloomed but bore no fruit.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yixue couldn't help but feel a twinge of resentment. She lightly furrowed her brows, her eyes reflecting a touch of disappointment.
Hiding in the restroom, Zhao Yixue pressed her hands against her chest to soothe her frightened little heart, gasping for breath.
Once she calmed down, she realized how useless she had been. Why did she think Zhou Yang's gaze was so wicked that she had to escape to the restroom?
Outside the door, she heard her secretary struggling to hold back laughter: "Miss Zhao, the president said if you're not feeling well, he has medicine..."
"…"
She never wanted to come out!
Zhao Yixue's face turned crimson as she felt an overwhelming sense of regret.
How embarrassing! How could the the Zhao Family have someone like her who was so disappointing? She would be scorned by the entire family!
