C8

The company suddenly quieted down. At this time, a woman who was usually at odds with Su Nian'ann stood up and looked at her with disdain, "Tsk tsk, Su Nian'ann, I really don't know how you got the face to say that. Your dad came to the company and told us everything, but you still want to deny it? That's your dad, and you're asking someone to beat him up! Tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me scared. You can even act against your own father, so we don't dare to be in the same room as you … If you don't like someone, who wouldn't be in trouble? "

"Yes!" We wouldn't dare work with people like that. "

"It's practically a sin! Her father had a daughter like her! I really can't tell from her way of doing things in the company. Just get the hell out of the company! "

"Right, get out of the company!"

"…"

The human heart is the most easily incited, those who boast of justice, always stand on the moral high ground, the so-called kindness and compassion to the weak people, thus to their own psychological comfort.

As for the 'bad guys' that they thought they were, they would be harshly condemned and criticized, even if that wasn't the truth. This type of cathartic justice made them more satisfied.

Su Nian'ann spent the entire morning in the midst of the curses of her 'indignant' colleagues.

Around 12 am, the department manager arrived at Su Nian'ann's desk.

When Su Nian'ann saw the department manager's hesitant manner, she had already guessed what she wanted to say.

"Manager, do you believe in me as well?"

Su Nian'ann stared straight at the department manager. She was looking forward to the department giving her a word. Even if it was just one sentence, the company would keep its silence.

What made Su Nian'ann disappointed was that after hesitating for a while, the manager said in a deep voice, "Nian'ann, I know there might be some misunderstanding, but at this point, the internal harmony and unity of the company has been affected too much, so I hope you can understand …"

Before the manager could finish, Su Nian'ann already understood what she meant.

It was as if the string that had been tensed all this time had snapped. She felt as if all the fatigue in her body had disappeared.

Her mother, who doted on her, was killed, but her honest father was just a heartless scum. Now … He was even going to lose his job he liked?

In a short half a month, it was as if half a lifetime had passed, and she had tasted the bitterness, sweetness, and bitterness of life. Su Nian'ann forcefully wiped away her tears. Just as she was about to argue, Lee Xiaoxiao stopped her.

"An'an!"

Su Nian'ann turned her head to look at her anxious friend. She bit her lips tightly and resisted the urge to cry as she said, "Why? Why should I leave?!" What did I do wrong? I... "There's nothing left …"

Lee Xiaoxiao saw Su Nian'ann's sorrowful expression and felt her heart ache. She pulled Su Nian'ann along and said, "An An, you know that it's useless even if you argue now. You …" Go home and rest for a few days, and let yourself get some peace and quiet, okay? "

Su Nian'ann listened to her friend's comforting words with a bitter smile as she wiped the corners of her eyes. She understood that Lee Xiaoxiao was still worried about her feelings, so she didn't say it out loud.

Her hands were trembling nonstop and a deep feeling of powerlessness flooded into Su Nian'ann's heart. She felt as if she was standing on a cliff that was tens of thousands of feet high, with not even a small vine in her hands. The mountain breeze was blowing urgently, yet she could only sway along with it, in danger of falling at any time.

After she tidied up the things on the table, Su Nian'ann followed Lee Xiaoxiao downstairs.

At the gate, Gao Ruizhou's driver was waiting. When he saw Su Nian'ann, he immediately came to greet her.

"Miss Su, are you going back?"

Lee Xiaoxiao looked at Su Nian'ann with a bit of sadness. She took a deep breath and said a few words of consolation before turning around and leaving.

The driver noticed that Su Nian'ann's expression was abnormal, so he didn't say anything else. He respectfully took the two boxes from Su Nian'ann and put them in the trunk.

At noon, there weren't any cars, so the time to drive back was much faster than when they first arrived.

In less than 20 minutes, Su Nian'ann saw Gao Ruizhou's villa. This was the place that made her scared, but was also her last resting place.

After entering the villa, he found that the living room was empty. He probably hadn't returned yet.

Su Nian'ann heaved a sigh of relief. Carrying her stuff, she went straight upstairs.

Aunt Suun heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen holding a cloth: "Miss Su?! "Why did you come back so early?"

When Su Nian'ann heard the voice, she turned around and looked at Aunt Suun, smiling bitterly, "I've resigned."

"He resigned?" Seeing that Su Nian'ann was not in a good mood, Aunt Suun did not ask further and only said with concern, "I can just rest well now. Are you hungry? "

"I'm not hungry." Su Nian'ann shook her head. "I'll be going upstairs first."

"Alright, then I'll call you for dinner tonight."

"Yes."

Su Nian'ann sat on the couch in her bedroom for four hours, lost in her own thoughts and unsure of what to do.

'Knock! Knock! '

There was a knock on the door, and Aunt Suun's voice rang out right after: "Miss Su, it's time to eat. Young Master is back."

Su Nian'ann finally reacted when she heard Gao Ruizhou had returned.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself, and went out.

In the living room, Gao Ruizhou probably just came back not long ago.

When he heard the commotion, he raised his head and glanced at Su Nian'ann. His eyes were cold and devoid of emotion.

Su Nian'ann, on the other hand, was a little apprehensive. She braced herself and moved towards the dining table. It was extremely difficult for Su Nian'ann to move within a few meters.

After sitting down with his head down, Aunt Suun finished serving the two and left, leaving Gao Ruizhou and Su Nian'ann behind.

The two of them did not speak. The silence was broken only by the sound of the chopsticks and the faint sound of chewing. The atmosphere was inexplicably subtle.

After dinner, Su Nian'ann gathered up her courage and said to Gao Ruizhou, "Gao Ruizhou, I have something to tell you."

Gao Ruizhou cast a sidelong glance at her. "About your resignation?"

Su Nian'ann's eyes widened in surprise. "You …" How do you know? "

Gao Ruizhou did not answer and sneered.

Su Nian'ann instantly understood that it was an easy thing for him to know about her movements, and it was also good this way. There was no need for her to explain it again.

"I want to find another job." she said flatly.

"Sure."

Gao Ruizhou's thin lips carelessly said two words. Su Nian'ann's face was filled with joy when she heard it. However, her happiness was broken by Gao Ruizhou's next words before it lasted for long.

"But the work has to be done by me."
