After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

At first, Chen Jie found it a bit boring listening to the chattering of people in the elevator.

Until he overheard Shen Yao and Chu Yao's gossip.

"A top celebrity in the entertainment industry and a cold, aloof female research professor? This doesn't sound like a couple at all."

"Whether you have chemistry or not, it doesn't matter if they're willing to be together, it's none of our business!"

"Professor Shen Yao, what a wonderful woman she is, how did she get involved with celebrities?"

“…”

Listening to the chatter of the people in the elevator, Chen Jie picked up his phone, just about to send a message to Gu Tianyou.

Just then, the elevator rang.

Many people lowered their heads and silently walked out of the elevator. Chen Jie put his phone back in his pocket and also went out.

Gu Tianyou was standing at the elevator entrance, answering a phone call.

"Okay, I'll pick her up tonight." After hanging up the phone, Gu Tianyou turned around and saw Chen Jie standing behind him.

Gu Tianyou frowned. "Why are you standing behind me for no reason?"

Chen Jie said innocently, "President Gu, I just arrived."

Gu Tianyou glanced at his watch and frowned even more deeply.

"It's past 9 o'clock, you didn't get perfect attendance this month!"

"Mr. Gu... I'll go clock in." Chen Jie had forgotten to clock in when he was hesitating about whether to tell Gu Tianyou about Shen Yao's relationship with another man.

Upon hearing that his perfect attendance record was gone, he rushed to the CEO's office door and pressed his fingerprint.

"How's the contact with Deep Space Technology Company going?" Gu Tianyou's deep voice sounded behind Chen Jie.

When Chen Jie saw that being two minutes late would result in the deduction of a month's perfect attendance bonus, he felt as if he had cut off a piece of his own flesh.

It took him a while to realize that his boss was asking him a question.

"Deep Space Technology Co., Ltd. replied that Professor Shen has been on annual leave for the past two months and will not be coming to the company."

"Take annual leave?"

Gu Tianyou frowned and looked coldly at Chen Jie, "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" He thought he could take Shen Yao back to see Old Master Gu tonight.

Chen Jie said with a pained and innocent expression, "President Gu, when I came back from the restaurant yesterday, it was already after get off work hours. Deep Space Technology's closing time is 5:30 pm."

Gu Tianyou's face grew increasingly grim. "You must contact Shen Yao before 5 p.m. today and tell her that Grandpa wants her tonight!"

Chen Jie: "......."

the other side.

Shen Yao woke up naturally after a good night's sleep, and as soon as she picked up her phone, she saw a ton of messages popping up on WeChat.

Some of them were posted by Lu Jiajia, and the other part was posted by Bo Yuxiu and Huangfu Hao.

Lu Jiajia's message was for her to quickly check Weibo.

Shen Yao opened Weibo with some trepidation.

The moment Weibo was opened, over 999 unread messages, over 999 unread likes, and over 999 unread comments popped up in red.

Last night, after Shen Yao openly rejected Chu Yao's marriage proposal, she returned home and posted a message on Weibo: "Not familiar, thank you."

The comments under this Weibo post have now exceeded 10.

Compared to the overwhelmingly positive reviews of the previous two days, this time, the comments under this post are almost entirely negative.

"In this day and age, anyone can be a professor."

"Who do you think you are? You're not even worthy to carry the prince's shoes!"

"To trample on people's good intentions so casually, with such low moral character, one should be called a beast!"

"..."

Seeing the flood of negative comments below, Shen Yao sighed helplessly as she lay on the bed. Fans these days are truly terrifying.

"Knock knock knock!" A knock suddenly came from the door. "Hello, your takeout has arrived."

Shen Yao was so startled by the sudden knocking that she almost jumped out of bed.
