Going Wrong as a Wife: Young Master Gu, Don't Be Arrogant

Chapter 10
Xia Shu subconsciously took a step back, her black and white eyes were filled with cold snow for a moment.

The man in the middle of the conference room lowered his head slightly and flipped through a document. At this moment, everyone's eyes were attracted by Xia Shu.

Ye Jieche raised his long and narrow eyes, and raised the corners of his lips slightly at her, "Xia Shu?"

He didn't ignore the sudden dimming of the brightness in her eyes, and because of this, he found things more interesting.

Xia Shu straightened her back and replied stiffly, "I am."

Her face was as if she had been slapped with hyaluronic acid and could no longer make any expressions at will, she laughed awkwardly.

She cursed secretly in her heart, clenched her hands into fists, and tried hard to restrain the surging emotions.

Why didn't she think of it? When she submitted her resume to Yichen Company, she was just trying to fill her dreams. When she was suddenly told that she was accepted, she couldn't think anymore, so she just believed it.

This man is here to humiliate her.

Sitting in such a prominent place, it is not difficult for people to guess his identity.

Ye Jieche turned the Parker pen in his hand, and amidst the surprised expressions of everyone, he said, "It happens that I still need a secretary, and you are the only one."

He raised his head to meet Xia Shu's puzzled gaze, and gave a smothered smile, "Of course you can refuse."

The gesture was casual and careless, which frightened the working staff for a long time.

This is definitely not their brutal president.

There was a coldness in the man's dark eyes, as if he could push him down the ninth floor mercilessly when she refused.

Xia Shu smiled wryly and shook her head, staggering her eyes from him, with a humble expression, "How could I refuse, I feel very honored to be able to work for you."

What an honor to go.

As if teased by her holding her breath and not speaking, Ye Jieche approached her, lowered her head and whispered in her ear: "Are you aggrieved now?"

With the distance at her fingertips, she could smell the strong mint fragrance from the man and the faint smell of tobacco.

This is a dangerous distance.

Xia Shu bit her head and lowered her eyes, her light and long eyelashes trembled slightly, and there was a deliberate smile in her voice, "How could it be, I really..."

A slender white finger was suddenly touched on her lips, she raised her head and bumped into the man's deep eyes, "Then hold it back."

He said this mercilessly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he walked past her to the door of the conference room.

As soon as the man who dominated the audience left, the meeting room suddenly exploded, and those monkey-like eyes fell on Xia Shu without hesitation.

Xia Shu pursed her lips tightly, not knowing whether to follow that man or stay here for others to appreciate.

A slim figure suddenly appeared in front of the wide-open door of the conference room behind him, and his not-so-loud voice successfully contained all the noise.

The woman had a mean expression on her face, and she still imitated Ye Jieche's bone-chilling tone when she spoke, "The CEO said that if the creative department can't hand over the pictures before get off work, you can wait to go home and eat yourself."

Amid the wailing, Xia Shu was taken away by the woman to the secretary's office. After seeing all her colleagues with long legs and thin waists, she blurted out: "Isn't it rumored that President Yichen is not a womanizer?"

The woman raised her glasses, glanced sharply at her, curled her lips with a half-smile and did not answer.

"Your desk is there, and you will officially start working tomorrow."

After explaining, the woman left straight away, and the young and beautiful secretaries in the office all cast curious eyes on her.

She really didn't want to face that man too quickly, so she smiled awkwardly and left.

In the crowded elevator, Xia Shu covered her stomach with one hand, and suddenly heard two women discussing herself.

The woman fiddled with her curly hair, with a contemptuous smile on her face, "Heh, have you heard that my head was seduced by a vixen."

"Tsk, you must be really good at bedtime, you actually managed to get rid of a man like that."

The two didn't shy away from it at all, and their voices were neither too loud nor too soft for Xia Shu to hear clearly.

She lowered her head, her face suddenly turned pale, her breathing was difficult in the closed iron space, and the hand stroking her stomach suddenly became stiff.

……Baby.

For the sake of the child in her womb, she should be patient.

The elevator descended to the first floor, and she escaped from the narrow space. Just as she let out a faint breath, she saw a group of people coming out of another elevator.

Ye Jieche fastened the buttons of his shirt cuffs, and seemed to have a chilly aura around him, which made people dare not pay too much attention to him.

Xia Shu leaned against the wall, and when she lowered her head, she didn't see Ye Jieche's eyes.

In President Yichen's office, Ye Jieche pressed the center of his eyebrows and dialed someone's phone, "Send me someone to watch her carefully, if something happens to the child, you should go with her too."

After threatening people, he opened a side drawer and started to smoke. The gray dust almost overflowed the ashtray, and the clean and cold office was filled with smoke.

It was a little early for Xia Shu to return to the rented house. After digesting the facts on the road, she felt inexplicably tired from the bottom of her heart.

Xia's father and Xia's mother have been calling her to ask her to go home for dinner, no matter how coquettish she wants to refuse, she has not compromised.

Lying on the bed, she opened her eyes and looked at the pure white ceiling, and suddenly smiled wryly.

Her hoarse voice was weak, and she laughed at herself, "Xia Shu, you really failed."

The former lover suddenly became her brother-in-law, and she was pregnant with a dangerous man's child.

This life is in dire straits, but it just makes her helpless.

After tidying herself up briefly, she returned home. Xia Xinjie and Xue Chexiao hadn't been seen by then, so she didn't intend to ask more questions.

With those two people away, she might feel better.

Xia's mother waited outside the villa, waiting for her to come back, but when Xia Shu embraced her waist enthusiastically, she laughed and scolded: "You have no heart, you have to be forced to come back once."

Xia Shu, who was wronged, stuck out her tongue embarrassingly, and finally had the livelyness that Si should have at this age, but her nimble eyes dimmed when she heard an intimate call from behind.

The woman with gorgeous make-up put her arms around the man beside her, "Mom, Ah Shu is back, my sister just bought you a dress, why don't you try it on?"

Xia Xinjie looked at the thin back suddenly stiffened, a smug look flashed across her eyes, but her tone became even more eager.

Heh, no matter in which aspect, she is better than this woman, her man will grab it, and she will grab it if she likes it.

After a period of precipitation, Xia Shu no longer felt too much discomfort. When she turned around, she smiled brightly, "Thank you, sister."

After all, she still didn't dare to meet the man beside her.

She just wants cowardly people to shrink in the turtle shell, not to feel the changes in the world, not to feel the sadness and separation, but there are always people who want to open her wounds.

Watching it fester and pus never recover.
