After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

After confirming that Mr. Li had signed the contract, I immediately handed it to Mr. Chen.

Only after securing this cooperation did I feel relieved.

I felt really uncomfortable after drinking this wine, so I stood up and swayed as I said goodbye to Mr. Chen.

"Mr. Chen, I have taken care of your matter. I hope you will not go back on your word."

Seeing the cooperation I had secured, General Manager Chen repeatedly replied, "Don't worry, everything will be done as you said."

Only after receiving his assurance did I dare to leave the private room.

I struggled to find my way and stumbled away from the party.

Right now, I just feel a churning in my stomach, and I feel really uncomfortable.

After I went outside, I hugged a trash can by the roadside and vomited violently.

I didn't care how disheveled I looked; all I wanted was to empty my stomach as much as possible.

I was vomiting so badly that I felt dizzy and disoriented, but I could vaguely see Jiang Yichen's figure out of the corner of my eye.

I don't know if it was my imagination, but when I looked up again, I found that the figure was gone.

After securing the cooperation, General Manager Chen also came out.

Seeing me vomiting by the trash can, he asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

I shook my head, trying to stand up as much as possible, and said casually, "It's alright, Mr. Chen."

Just then, Jiang Yichen walked over.

When President Chen saw him, he couldn't help but sigh, "President Jiang, I really envy you for having such a good employee as Gu Mo."

I said with a self-deprecating laugh, "I'm nothing in his eyes, Mr. Chen, please stop joking."

Mr. Chen just smiled and didn't say anything more.

And in the next second, I felt myself being lifted into the air.

Before I could react, Jiang Yichen had already carried me into the car.

He roughly threw me onto the back seat, sat down next to me, gripped my chin tightly, and spoke with an air of accusation.

"Gu Mo, why do you have to make yourself like this?"

My vision blurred, and I mumbled, "This partnership was lost because of me... I need to find a way... to get it back."

Jiang Yichen frowned slightly and continued in a cold voice, "I don't lack this money, so why are you doing this?"

His voice was surprisingly gentle.

Are you feeling sorry for me?

Do not!impossible!

"This is the mess I made, and I have to take responsibility for it."

As I spoke, I tentatively touched his furrowed brows and couldn't help but mutter, "He always has such a long face, it's really unsightly."

Upon my touch, Jiang Yichen's throat bobbed slightly, and he warned in a deep voice, "Do you know what you're doing?"

I don't know if it was the alcohol or what, but seeing his cold face, I became bolder.

How could this be the real Jiang Yichen? It's just a dream.

Normally, I wouldn't dare to do that.

I rubbed his face hard until I felt the real touch, and then I realized that the person in front of me was real.

The atmosphere gradually became more ambiguous.

Jiang Yichen's gaze was fixed on my face. After a long while, he suddenly asked, "Gu Mo, if I were to marry you now, would you agree to marry me?"

Upon hearing this, my eyes were filled with disbelief.

Having just finished drinking, I couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.

I tried to calm myself down and tentatively asked, "What about Lin Nan?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yichen fell silent.

My head was throbbing badly, and I soon fell asleep leaning against the car window.

When I woke up again, Jiang Yichen had already taken me home.

My brother opened the door.

I vaguely heard their conversation.

"Do you still have feelings for my sister?"

Upon hearing this, I forced myself to cheer up.

But the next second, Jiang Yichen's mocking voice rang out.

"What? You want me to help the Gu family?"

My brother didn't say anything.

I chuckled self-deprecatingly.

The next day.

I went back to the company.

I had just finished clocking in when I saw Mr. Chen suddenly arrive.

Without time to think too much, I quickly greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Chen, you've arrived. This way, please."

Mr. Chen said with a smile, "Gu Mo, you were so kind to me yesterday. Today I'm here to fulfill my promise."

"Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Chen, and for giving me another opportunity to cooperate."

I responded with a smile.

After signing the contract, we chatted for a while before he left, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as I was about to go back to my workspace, Xiaoyu suddenly blocked my way, her words dripping with sarcasm.

"Gu Mo, how did you secure this partnership? You didn't use any underhanded methods, did you?"

Hearing her malicious judgment made me angry, and I retorted directly, "People with filthy minds see everything as filthy."

I couldn't be bothered to argue with her, so after saying those words, I wanted to leave immediately.

Unfortunately, Xiaoyu wasn't going to give up so easily. She continued, "If you hadn't done those things, why would this manufacturer suddenly change their mind and even come to our door in person?"

"I salvaged the situation through my own abilities. If you don't have those abilities, then don't spread rumors and cause trouble. If you really can't stand me, you can sign a bigger deal to crush me."

I stared at the little fish, my tone laced with disdain.

I'm already used to her sarcasm.

Xiaoyu was furious, stomping her feet repeatedly, trying to get back at him verbally, "This is all your fault. You only managed to save one manufacturer, what's there to be proud of?"

Seeing how anxious Xiaoyu was, I felt inexplicably pleased.

I glanced at her disdainfully and deliberately raised my voice a few decibels, "If it were you, you might not have the ability to do that. Since you can't do it, stop being a sour grapes."

The expression on Xiaoyu's face after I teased her was quite interesting.

Seeing the little fish get its comeuppance gave me a sense of triumph.

Before I could even feel smug, Lin Nan suddenly appeared from the doorway.

After hearing our conversation, she sneered and said to me, "Since you're so capable, then call back all the manufacturers you've lost."

After saying that, Lin Nan left immediately.

Knowing she was just trying to embarrass me, I ignored her.

But as soon as Xiaoyu saw Lin Nan speak, she couldn't help but feel smug.

"What's so great about it? You only managed to win back one manufacturer. If you were really that capable, you could have won back all of them."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After the two left, I went to Jiang Yichen's office.

He was looking through documents at that moment.

Upon seeing me, Jiang Yichen stopped what he was doing and said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

Ignoring his emotions, I asked him, "If I agree to marry you, will you still marry me as you said last night?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yichen stiffened for a moment. After realizing what he meant, his eyes darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

I had anticipated his reaction, so I promptly extracted a recording from my phone.

Jiang Yichen's voice was clearly audible.
