Under Gu Yu's persuasion, Zhong Xiaoqin decided to face up to the problem with Chen Yu and have a good talk.
With Gu Yu fanning the flames, divorce is no longer an option that has not been considered.
Of course, Gu Yu didn't place any hope on Zhong Xiaoqin getting divorced this time. If he wanted her to give up completely, Chen Yu would need to work harder.
Gu Yu, who had already planted the seeds, was very patient.
Wang Manni did not ask Gu Yu for help. Gu Yu thought for a moment and roughly understood what Wang Manni was thinking.
He sent someone to learn about Wang Manni's situation these days, and learned that the other party's current situation was very bad. He also played a role in this.
When people are unlucky, their teeth become choked when they drink cold water. Things that make Wang Manni feel bad come one after another, constantly impacting her low and negative mood, slowly making her despair.
The most unacceptable thing to Wang Manni was that Zoe came to visit her at home the day before yesterday. In addition to bringing the investigation results from the Xiangjiang headquarters, there was also news about Gu Yu.
The people from the Xiangjiang headquarters were just a formality. They wanted to end the turmoil as soon as possible and reduce the risk of negative public opinion for the brand. They didn't even meet Wang Manni and quickly gave the results.
The labor contract with Wang Manni was terminated, and a gag order was issued in the store, prohibiting the clerk from discussing the matter anymore.
Zoe accidentally learned the news about Gu Yu. Yesterday, she received a pair of rich ladies who came to the store to spend money and heard their chat.
Gu Yu and the eldest daughter of the Jiang family are in love. This incident has become a hot topic in the upper circles of Shanghai. Some people are envious of Gu Yu, and some are envious of Jiang Lai. Most people think that the two are a perfect match.
This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Wang Manni. She wanted to call Gu Yu immediately to question the authenticity of the matter and ask Gu Yu to give her an explanation.
But the huge identity gap between the two made Wang Manni choose to escape and did not make the call, retaining the last possibility.
"Dong dong dong~"
In front of the rental house where Wang Manni lived in Suhewan Building, Gu Yu knocked on the door several times.
"Are you here to see the house?"
Wang Manni opened the door, her voice was weak and lacked energy.
Gu Yu looked at the other person. His face was pale and weak, his hair was tied up and a little messy. He had lost a lot of weight after not seeing each other for a few days.
She wore a long white nightgown and a pink knitted cardigan jacket.
"Gu Yu?"
Wang Manni looked a little excited when she saw the person coming. She thought of something and became disappointed again. She didn't say anything to Gu Yu. The door was opened and she turned around and entered the room.
Gu Yu closed the door and saw Wang Manni sitting on the sofa with her knees depressed, holding a glass of red wine in her left hand, raising her fair and slender neck, drinking it all in one gulp, and then poured herself another glass. On the coffee table in front of her Two bottles have been opened.
"Manni, stop drinking, it will hurt your body,"
Gu Yu sat next to Wang Manni, took the goblet from the other person's hand, and said worriedly,
"Body? Haha, who cares?" Wang Manni laughed at herself,
"I care, Manni. I heard Zoe say something about what happened recently. Why don't you come to me? I will help you solve all your troubles."
Gu Yu put his hands on Wang Manni's shoulders, his tone was soft and caring,
"Help me? In what name? Friend? Boyfriend? Who are you, Miss Jiang?"
Wang Manni looked directly into Gu Yu's eyes, feeling a little out of control.
She suffered a lot during this period. What made her frustrated was undoubtedly that Gu Yu had a girlfriend, not her.
"You know?" Gu Yu let go of Wang Manni, looking a little embarrassed.
"Gu Yu, Mr. Gu, what do you think of me? A canary who wants to be a sugar daddy? A flesh and blood that can be discarded at will to satisfy your needs?"
Wang Manni's face was expressionless, her voice was cold, and her slightly trembling hands showed that her heart was not peaceful at the moment.
Facing Gu Yu and all the bad things that happened during this period, she tried hard to maintain her dignity and dignity.
"Manni, I admit that I am a little greedy. Jiang Lai is indeed my current girlfriend.
Friend, but I still like you,
Believe it or not, I had a crush on you from the first time I saw you in your store.
I have never been in love before, I thought this was God's arrangement," Gu Yu looked into Wang Manni's eyes with a serious expression.
"Then why do you suddenly have a girlfriend, and she is also the eldest lady of ***? Are you a good match? Or is it for the development of your career?" Wang Manni asked with a sneer on her lips,
"Jiang Lai's family background is indeed better than yours, but with my current worth, money is just a number, but there were some accidents in the middle,"
Gu Yu's expression became complicated, as if he had something unspeakable. Wang Manni was angry and curious at the same time, wanting to hear Gu Yu's explanation.
The moment she saw Gu Yu, she didn't close the door directly, which explained the problem. Until now, Wang Manni was still looking forward to the ending of Gu Yu and her together.
"*** I have cooperated with me. The current president Jiang Haokun has a good relationship with me.
He wanted to match me up with his sister. I couldn't refuse directly, so I agreed to meet her. You don't know how surprised I was when I saw her."
Gu Yu adjusted his mood. As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and showed Wang Manni a photo of Jiang Lai. It was her turn to be surprised.
In the photo, Jiang Lai is dressed in a red dress, looking cool and charming, and her face and appearance are similar to Wang Manni's.
While Wang Manni was in shock, Gu Yu told the story between him and Jiang Lai, whether true or false.
"I like her and I also like you. I know this is wrong. After confirming the relationship with Jiang Lai,
I tried not to disturb your life anymore, but I heard that you have been having a hard time recently, and I miss you very much."
Gu Yu looked affectionate and held Wang Manni in his arms. Wang Manni tried to break away several times.
But feeling Gu Yu's strong arms and his undisguised nostalgia for her, Wang Manni slowly gave up her struggle and hammered Gu Yu's chest a few times. Under his warm embrace, her eyes gradually blurred with tears and she cried. Voice,
Her mind was in chaos now. The loneliness, helplessness and grievances she had suffered during this period of time made her want to find someone to rely on.
It's not that she has accepted Gu Yu's greed and passion. Wang Manni is very angry. She was not willing to be a mistress before, but recent experiences have made her feel powerless.
In addition to being fired due to false accusations, her reputation in the industry was also ruined. Others said that she had become a young lady who used her body as a sales tool and went around to seduce wealthy people.
She can no longer survive in big cities such as Shanghai, and no high-end luxury brand will hire her again.
What made her even more desperate was that Song Donghu was still spreading rumors and slandering her innocence.
He told the matchmaker that the reason why the blind date failed was that he discovered that Wang Manni was inappropriate.
This matter has spread to her hometown and reached the ears of her parents.
Her parents, who had never beaten or scolded her once since she was a child, spoke harshly to her for the first time, saying that she had brought shame to the family and asked her to go back to her hometown immediately to stop embarrassing herself outside. They also said that the money she earned was unclean.
Before Gu Yu came to find her, Wang Man
