C64 Shear Cut Cut Cut
The mood that was originally very calm suddenly rose up once again due to Ou Jia Rui's concern. My nose started to sour once again.
I don't know why, but I suddenly really wanted to know what kind of relationship Ou Jia Rui had towards Ou Jingyi. If the two of them were really as close as Ou Jingyi had said, then why would he carry another man's child with him?
Thinking this, I actually pulled on Ou Jia Rui's sleeve. "Ou Jia Rui."
As soon as I opened my mouth, my voice was cut off except for my sobbing.
Seeing my tears, Ou Jia Rui instantly became flustered. She sat back down by my side. "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
I shook my head with all my might, the words that were buried in my heart rolled three times in my throat before I finally managed to ask, "What is your relationship with Ou Jingyi? If it's really like you guys told me, and it's only a relationship between an adoptive father and a foster daughter, then why did she hug you that day in the company's teahouse?"
I didn't realize that my inquiry now was very much like the interrogation of a proper palace official about a husband who had committed a crime outside. There was a trace of regret in Ou Jia Rui's eyes, but it didn't break the panic and shame in her eyes.
"You're saying that when you came to eat with me at Ou Family the other day, I told you why you suddenly became so depressed." While taking a tissue box from a nearby table to wipe my tears, O'Jia Rui continued to explain, "That day, Jingjing wanted to take the things in the fridge. Plus, she lived with me since she was young, it was such a free habit."
Seeing that I was still in disbelief, Ou Jia Rui continued to add, "Moreover, you should have gone to look for me that day, but I didn't expect to see Jingjing hug me, so you probably just left. You didn't see me avoid her later, and the reason I didn't immediately push you away is because there are a lot of hot water and glasses in the tea room.
I still frowned, "I know my words are hard for you to believe, but I can assure you with my character and the future of the Ou family that I'm already married to you. Even if I'm not married to you, I can only take care of Jingjing by my elders, can you believe me?"
The guilt in my heart towards Ou Jia Rui deepened. He treated me with such care, but my existence continued to bring him trouble.
"So it was because of this that you were so angry these past few days. Why didn't you ask me earlier? Otherwise, why would you be so bored of yourself for so many days?" O'Jia Rui dotingly scratched the bridge of my nose.
I sniffed. "Actually, that's not what I want to tell you, I want to say …"
Before I could finish what I wanted to say, I was overshadowed by the noise coming from the CEO's office outside the lounge. It was once again Ou Jingyi, and I had no idea which performance she was singing.
Actually, the next thing I wanted to say was that I should leave when I gave birth to the baby. I couldn't let a father who was Lin Qian's child give a responsibility that wasn't his to begin with. It wouldn't be fair to Ou Jia Rui, and it wouldn't be fair to the baby either. However, it was interrupted by the arrival of Ou Jingyi.
Since it was so noisy outside, I couldn't continue to rest. Thus, I decided to go out and check with Ou Jia Rui to see what had happened to Ou Jingyi.
It was Lin Qian who made a ruckus in the CEO's office. I wanted to turn around and wait for them in the resting room before leaving, but was stopped by Ou Jia Rui who was a bit domineering: "You can't never face them, moreover, the one who did the wrong thing was never you."
However, Lin Qian's gaze turned to look at me. Due to the fact that I just cried, my eyes were still glowing red. The tears in my eyes were in stark contrast to the violent and unreasonable Ou Jingyi.
I subconsciously looked towards Ou Jia Rui to avoid Lin Qian's gaze. Perhaps I was mistaken, when Lin Qian looked at me just now, I had the same feeling as when we were in love, but I couldn't find my heart and sweetness.
"What happened to the two of you?" When he stared at Ou Jingyi, he really felt like a parent looking at a child during the rebellious phase.
Lin Qian recovered from his daze and said, "Hello CEO Ou, I'm here to pick up Jingjing for lunch."
"Then what are you doing?" This question was asked to Ou Jingyi.
I don't want to go back with him. It's not like I don't have a house myself, and living at home is fine too. It's also convenient for me to live and work with you. Ou Jingyi said willfully, completely disregarding Lin Qian's feelings.
But Lin Qian wasn't someone who was easy to deal with, "CEO Ou, it's like this, ever since Jingjing came to work, almost every day after work, I've either gone out to meet my little sister for a meal, or I've gone to a bar. It's already been some time since I've gone back to eat with my family's old man, my parents aren't good either, they love to talk, and then they pestered Jingjing."
Even though these words were spoken politely, the blame was placed entirely on Ou Jingyi, "I was thinking that she would come home at 12 o'clock every day, and I'm worried too. I'll either pick her up or accompany her out to relax." Lin Qian's attitude was extremely humble.
Ou Jingyi didn't seem to care about Lin Qian at all. She just sat in my seat and looked at her phone, clearly wanting to hand over this mess to Ou Jia Rui to finish up.
"Jingjing, come with me for a bit." Ou Jia Rui was the first to enter the resting room. Even though she was still angry, she still followed me obediently. She was afraid that I would be embarrassed while facing Lin Qian alone, so she brought me along. Lin Qian was the only one left in the CEO's office.
Ou Jia Rui's words were very concise and concise. The main idea was that if Ou Jingyi continued to mess around like this, then she should stop working at the Ou Family and not go to the Ou Family.
I vaguely felt that part of the reason why Ou Jia Rui did this was because she knew that the existence of Ou Jingyi was affecting my condition every day. Of course, I would rather that it was just my imagination.
Ou Jingyi obviously couldn't accept this kind of threat from Ou Jia Rui: "What do you mean, you really want me to marry Lin Qian like this?"
"It's no big deal. You're already an adult, you should learn how to take responsibility for what you've done. Otherwise, our Ou Family might not have such a daughter." Ou Jia Rui pulled me up from the side, who was already in a daze. "Let's go. Yaoyao, let's go home."
Ou Jingyi, who was following behind me, almost wanted to kill me with her eyes, so she blamed everything that had happened to me. Although she was unwilling, she still followed Lin Qian home as she was still afraid of Ou Jia Rui.
Until I went to bed at night, I was still uneasy. It was due to the gentleness and sacrifice of Ou Jia Rui, as well as Lin Qian's baffled gaze.
While she lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, the quiet Ou Jia Rui also spoke up, "Yao Yao, can't you sleep?"
"Yeah." My voice was muffled.
I simply sat up on the bed. "Ou Jia Rui, I haven't finished talking to you this afternoon."
"Hmm?" Ou Jia Rui turned on the bedside light and motioned for me to wait. "I'll go pour you a glass of water and milk."
He was wearing pajamas at home, and didn't look any sharper than usual. Even his eyebrows softened under the dim light at the head of the bed. I feel that this kind of Ou Jia Rui's most earthly scent of fireworks is best approached.
When O'Jia Rui came back with the milk, I had already prepared a draft in my mind, trying to express my intentions as tactfully as possible.
"Ou Jia Rui, I think it's pretty good right now. There's nothing bad about you treating me, but you and I both know that the child in my stomach belongs to Lin Qian. Even if you don't mind, I can't be selfish and drag you down for your entire life, so …"
This time, it was Ou Jia Rui who interrupted me. He seemed to have already predicted what I was going to say next, "Go to sleep, don't think too much. I guarantee you that after this child is born, no trouble or problem will happen to you. I promise."
She took my glass of milk and set it on the table to one side. I waited until I was completely flat on the bed before turning off the light in the bedroom.
"Zhou Xinyao, don't be afraid. Those bad things won't happen. Good night." You tell me.
Even though I had already made up my mind to leave right after giving birth to my baby, I started to covet the warm atmosphere. I didn't want to break it at this moment and even wanted to indulge in it, hoping that the day of my departure would never come.
Perhaps it was due to the effect of Ou Jia Rui's warning, but in the next few days, nothing happened to Ou Jingyi. The number of times she came to the CEO's office also decreased.
After taking care of my condition, the work submitted by the secretariat was basically done. I couldn't help but protest to Ou Jia Rui, "Hey, CEO Ou, I can't just keep doing nothing with my salary, can I?"
"So, in the past few days, I have been sending you an important mission. Go pick out a birthday present suitable for a middle-aged woman. There is no limit to the number of gifts and the price is no limit. As long as it suits your desire, it will be fine."
"What? Is it for some special customer?" I'm a little curious.
"You little fool, I need you to choose if you want to gift this to the customers. I can just hand it over to the PR Department, it's my mom's birthday. It's only once a year, I'm usually not around, so come with me when the time comes." Ochira rubbed my head.
I was very nervous, and the image of the elegant but somewhat cold and unkind woman surfaced in my mind. But as the wife of Ou Jia Rui, I understood that it was my duty and duty to attend such an occasion.
"Alright. As for the specific time, I will prepare them." I asked, grinding my teeth.
"This weekend."
