Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife
Chapter 282 Shattered Fantasy
In the president's office, Jiang Chengjun's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the computer screen like a trapped beast.
On the screen, the share price of Jiang Group plummeted like a cliff, it was a horrible sight; the headlines of financial news were all about criticizing his cheating scandal, those glaring words were like sharp blades, piercing straight into his crumbling business empire.
"Ding-ling-ling——" the phone on the desk rang urgently.
"Mr. Jiang, this matter is too serious. We have to reconsider the cooperation. The legal department will contact you regarding the compensation."
With a "click", the phone was hung up, and the busy tone was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard.
Jiang Chengjun stood up suddenly and swept all the documents on the table to the ground. The documents flew wildly in the air, just like his broken and messy thoughts at the moment.
"Damn it!" he roared angrily.
In this desperate situation, the figure of Gu Fanxing suddenly flashed through Jiang Chengjun's mind.
A gleam of greed instantly ignited in his eyes, as if he had grasped the last straw of life in the darkness.
In his selfish and narrow-minded understanding, Gu Fanxing is nothing more than a chess piece that he can manipulate at will, and the last trump card to save his business failure.
He thought to himself that as long as Gu Fanxing came forward as his fiancée and said a few good words for him in front of the media, with the connections and reputation she had accumulated in the industry, she would be able to stabilize those wavering partners and bring the company back to life.
When the company overcomes the crisis, he can not only continue to enjoy the resources and benefits brought by Gu Fanxing with peace of mind, but also use her as a capital for showing off and continue to maintain his perfect personality in front of others.
As for the harm suffered by Gu Fanxing, he simply disdained it. In his opinion, Gu Fanxing, this simple-minded and stupid woman, should sacrifice everything for him.
He hurried to Gu Fanxing's residence and stood in front of the familiar door. He took a deep breath and began to weave beautiful fantasies in his mind: Gu Fanxing snuggled up to him like a little bird, and tearfully spoke about their indestructible love at the press conference, proving that the rumors of cheating were nothing but false.
Then, the media's wind direction suddenly changed, partners changed their minds one after another, Jiang's Group's stock price rebounded strongly, he could stand at the top of the business world again, continue to call the shots, and Gu Fanxing would continue to be stepped on by him and obey his orders. With such a beautiful dream, he pressed the doorbell.
The door slowly opened and Gu Fanxing appeared at the door.
The moment she saw Jiang Chengjun, her heart suddenly shrank, as if it was being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.
At this moment, the flame of hatred burned fiercely in her chest, burning her soul so much that it trembled.
But she quickly calmed down, a barely perceptible determination flashed in her eyes, and a plan quietly took shape in her mind.
She lowered her eyes to hide the hatred surging in them. When she raised her head, her eyes were already red, and her voice was choked with just the right amount of sobs: "Chengjun, you're finally here."
Jiang Chengjun was secretly pleased when he saw Gu Fanxing's expression. He immediately put on a false smile, pretending to be deeply distressed, and said anxiously, "Fanxing, I was wrong. I haven't eaten or drunk anything these days, and I have been reflecting on my mistakes. I really know that I was wrong.
You see, the company is in danger now, and only you can save me. As long as you come forward to help me clarify, we can go back to the past, back to the time when we loved each other the most, okay?
If you don't help me, I'm finished, you can't just watch me ruin my reputation." As he said this, he reached out to grab Gu Fanxing's hand, looking like a drowning man desperately grabbing a piece of driftwood.
Gu Fanxing did not dodge, letting him hold her hand, tears welling up in her eyes, sobbing, "Chengjun, do you know how I've been spending the past few days? I locked myself in the room, not eating or drinking, and my world was completely dark."
Jiang Chengjun was secretly delighted, thinking that things were going extremely smoothly, and he quickly struck while the iron was hot.
"I know you've suffered. As long as you help me this time, I will hold you in my hands and make up for all my mistakes.
I will never let you suffer any injustice again."
Gu Fanxing nodded slightly, her voice trembling slightly: "I know the company is very important to you. You must have felt bad during this period. I have also reflected on myself and wonder if I have not done something well enough that made you..." As she spoke, her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was trying her best to suppress the pain in her heart.
After listening to these words, Jiang Chengjun was almost certain that he had successfully deceived Gu Fanxing, and a smug look appeared on his face.
However, just when Jiang Chengjun was immersed in a beautiful dream and couldn't extricate himself, Gu Fanxing suddenly pulled his hand back with force. The weakness on her face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by unprecedented resolution and determination.
She straightened her back, her eyes as cold as the stars, staring straight at Jiang Chengjun, and said word by word: "Chengjun, I have thought about it for a long time, there is no going back between us."
Jiang Chengjun was like being struck by thunder. The smile on his face froze instantly, becoming twisted and funny. He stared at Gu Fanxing in disbelief with his eyes wide open.
"Fanxing, you...what nonsense are you talking about? We can start over. Don't be impulsive. This is just a momentary angry remark, right? You can't abandon me at this time. Have you forgotten our previous promise?"
There was a slight tremor in his voice, which was a reveal of his inner fear, but more of it was the anger and shame after being disobeyed.
"I decided to cancel the engagement for the sake of you and Wenwen. You love each other so much, and I can't bear to break you up. Go away, and don't come to me again. There is nothing between us anymore!" Gu Fanxing's chest heaved violently. She stared at Jiang Chengjun, making herself remember this pain forever.
Jiang Chengjun's lips trembled slightly. He wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
His hands clenched unconsciously, and the expression on his face changed from shock to anger, and then from anger to despair.
"You can't do this to me! What gives you the right? You have always listened to me, why are you resisting now?" His voice was almost a roar, with a bit of anger and shame, and in the end he even tried to use the so-called "favors" of the past to morally blackmail me.
Gu Fanxing sneered, and that laugh was like the cold wind in the cold night, which made Jiang Chengjun shudder: "Jiang Chengjun, don't you understand yet? I am not your appendage, I have my own dignity and bottom line.
You have trampled on my sincerity time and time again, and now you still want me to help you clean up the mess. You are too naive. Go away and don't come to me again. There is no connection between us anymore."
Jiang Chengjun stood at the door, his mind blank. He could never have imagined that Gu Fanxing, who used to obey him, would now be so decisive and resolute.
His heart was filled with anger, resentment and fear. He was angry at Gu Fanxing's betrayal (in his distorted cognition, this was betrayal), unwilling that his plan had completely failed, and terrified of the impending business crisis and disgrace.
Inside the house, Gu Fanxing burst into tears.
She felt sad for her past deep affection, but at the same time, she felt a sense of relief in her heart. She finally plucked up the courage to completely cut off contact with Jiang Chengjun and bid farewell to the past full of pain and betrayal.
At this moment, Gu Fanxing raised her head and looked out the window through her blurry eyes. The hustle and bustle of the city was still there, but she knew that her world had become completely different.
On this seemingly ordinary day, she completed a transformation of her soul. The road ahead may still be full of thorns, but she is no longer the girl shivering in the dark. Instead, she is a brave light seeker who walks firmly towards an unknown but hopeful new life with pain and growth.
