After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

Ruifeng Group.

The once magnificent and brightly lit office building appeared particularly gloomy and desolate on a weekend evening.

After all, being treated like a beast of burden is already enough for them.

On weekends, unless absolutely necessary, no one wants to step into the company.

But Lu Shuyao was an exception.

Her life now revolves around work for 80 percent of the time.

To others, a company may be a cold and impersonal place.

But for her, it was the only place where she could find peace and forget her sorrows and troubles.

Here, she only needs to tell herself that as long as she keeps working, working tirelessly, working without thinking, the troubles of life will have to take a backseat and will never bother her.

Therefore, after getting Li Haokai drunk and sending a series of messages using his phone, she went directly to the company.

From darkness to darkness.

From dawn until night.

She wouldn't eat if she wasn't hungry during the meal.

If I really can't take it anymore, I'll buy a pack of instant noodles from the vending machine in the break room to fill my stomach and then continue working.

She wasn't deliberately abusing or punishing herself.

I just follow my heart.

They don't care what others think.

For example, Zeng Ruijie, who also came to the company to work overtime in the afternoon.

If she weren't worried that the smell of instant noodles would bother her boss, she would have liked to eat instant noodles and read documents right at her workstation.

It wasn't until nearly 10 p.m. that the two of them left the company one after the other.

Specifically, Lu Shuyao was kicked out of the company by her boss, Zeng Ruijie.

She's such a workaholic, she's gone so far that even another workaholic can't stand it anymore.

This shows just how outrageous it is.

Zeng Ruijie was never a boss who cared about his subordinates.

His life experiences have long since turned him into an extremely indifferent person.

Seeing Lu Shuyao working so hard, he still spoke up to stop her.

Although the words were harsh, the intention was good.

Although, no boss would not want their employees to work overtime like this!

But he still stopped him.

Perhaps, he saw a reflection of himself in Lu Shuyao.

As she walked out of the company gate, Lu Shuyao turned her head and glanced behind her at the office building that stood in the dark night, with a few lights shining through.

Before I knew it, the day was over.

As soon as she turned around, a heavy slap landed on her face.

Li Haokai suddenly appeared from some dark corner, glaring fiercely at Lu Shuyao.

"You bitch, how come I never knew you were so vicious? Are you trying to drive me to my death?"

Lu Shuyao covered her face and slowly turned her head away.

Without saying a word, he kicked Li Haokai in the groin.

"what……"

Caught off guard, Li Haokai's face contorted in pain.

He bent over, clutching his groin, and wailed.

He stopped cursing and started spinning in place.

Only after Lu Shuyao walked past him, and he saw that she was about to leave, did he endure the pain and struggle to block her way.

At that moment, Zeng Ruijie, who was following behind as he walked out of the company gate, was on the phone and only saw Lu Shuyao kick the man in the groin.

He thought his assistant had actually encountered a pervert at the entrance of his company.

So, the moment Li Haokai bent over, enduring the pain, to block Lu Shuyao's path, he delivered a flying kick, knocking the half-hunched man to the ground.

Immediately following was a beating and kicking.

He only stopped when he was sure the pervert had no chance to fight back.

Lu Shuyao, standing to the side, just watched quietly.

From surprise to eventual composure.

She even went up and kicked Zeng Ruijie a few more times after he finished.

After Zeng Ruijie finished making the call, he took out his phone to call the police.

But then they heard the man on the ground groaning and cursing, "Lu Shuyao, you bitch, you dare hit me, believe it or not..."

As Li Haokai cursed, his gaze gradually shifted to Zeng Ruijie beside him, and he glared at him fiercely.

"Damn it, they call me a scumbag and keep bringing up my cheating, but you yourself still found another man?"

Zeng Ruijie, who had just dialed 110 and was about to make the call, stopped what he was doing upon hearing this and turned to look at his assistant, Lu Shuyao.

"Do you know?"

Lu Shuyao hummed in agreement and replied, "Thank you, President Zeng. Remember to wash your hands properly when you get back."

Zeng Ruijie smiled faintly, then turned to leave.

Anyone with a normal ear can tell they are a couple.

Since it's a family matter, he doesn't need to get involved.

Zeng Ruijie lifted his foot, just about to take a step, when Li Haokai suddenly crawled over and grabbed his leg.

"You think you can just leave after hitting someone? Weren't you going to call the police? Go ahead and call them!"

Li Haokai lay on the ground like a dog, clinging tightly to Zeng Ruijie's leg.

He looks like a mad dog right now, biting anyone he sees.

He was too ashamed to face anyone. That bitch Lu Shuyao made him the laughingstock of the company overnight. He lost his dignity, his face, and everything else.

So he decided to go all out.

Upon seeing this, Lu Shuyao immediately went over to pull him away.

"Li Haokai, what's between us has nothing to do with President Zeng. What's wrong with you?"

"It has nothing to do with it?"

Li Haokai raised his head, gritting his teeth, and said, "He's your boss, so he's involved. He dared to hit me, and I'll make him pay the price!"

As he spoke, he let go of her hand, took out his phone, and started calling the police.

At the same time, he was verbally threatening, "I'll call the police right now. You wanted to leave, didn't you? Go ahead and try leaving again."

Zeng Ruijie stood there, looking at the man on the ground with disdain.

Since he's going to call the police, I'll play along to the end.

Lu Shuyao, who was standing to the side, originally wanted Zeng Ruijie to leave quickly while Li Haokai let go of her hand.

She didn't want her boss to get involved or cause him trouble.

But Li Haokai actually called the police, and on the phone he specifically pointed out that he was beaten by a stranger surnamed Zeng while dealing with family matters.

Even if Zeng Ruijie leaves now, he will still be summoned for questioning later.

Before the police arrived.

Li Haokai just sat there on the ground, swearing at Lu Shuyao.

He would also occasionally include Zeng Ruijie, who was some distance away from him.

"If you make my life difficult, then none of you will have an easy time either."

"You think you've won by taking away my dignity, making me lose face, and losing my job? You think you've completely crushed me? Let me tell you, Lu Shuyao, I will repay you a thousandfold for all the pain you've inflicted on me!"

……

Lu Shuyao glared at him but ignored him.

When others are in pain, you can completely ignore it, but when you are in pain yourself, you realize what pain is.

Li Haokai bombarded Lu Shuyao with his words for a long time, only to be met with a glare in return.

I can't even be bothered to talk to him.

Enraged, Li Haokai began to attack her weaknesses.

“You Lu family members are all the same, not a single one of you is a good person. You and your sister Lu Shiyi are no good either, and your parents are even worse. They’ve raised both of their daughters to be vicious and crazy women. Don’t they feel ashamed of their old age? They’re always talking about their sons-in-law this and that. It makes me sick to my stomach…”
