In the blink of an eye, Gong Mohan came out of the president's office at a speed that he didn't expect.
The people outside the office didn't realize what had happened, but they felt a gust of wind pass by.
Then, when they looked back, the door of the president's office was wide open, but there was no trace of Gong Mohan inside.
The secretaries outside were all dumbfounded. They had no idea what was going on.
They all looked at each other, but they all reached a consensus in their hearts — someone was definitely going to suffer, and a bloody storm was inevitable.
Ignoring the discussions behind him, Gong Mohan went straight to the president's elevator, went downstairs, and walked in the direction of the underground parking lot.
Along the way, there were naturally a lot of people who turned to look at Gong Mohan, who was in a hurry to leave.
After all, in their minds, they had never seen their CEO, whom they regarded as a celestial being. He had always been calm and composed. When had they ever seen him like this?
It could be said that this was the first time in his life. So, how could he not be surprised?
That's impossible.
While Gu Wan and Yoon Li-chen were walking on the road, swaying slowly back, Gong Mohan had already driven his exclusive low-key luxury black car on the way back.
Speeding all the way, Gong Mohan even ran several red lights, but he didn't even frown.
But he was always worried about Gu Wan. Gong Mohan even kept whispering, "She won't leave like this. She won't leave like this, right?"
She didn't know if Gong Mohan was asking himself or asking the heavens.
Gong Mohan's hands were gripping the steering wheel so tightly that they were turning white from excessive exertion.
"No." Gong Mohan told himself that in his heart. However, his incessant stepping on the accelerator still exposed his thoughts.
On the other side, Gu Wan probably felt the same way. Gu Wan's mood also inexplicably became gloomy all of a sudden. As she walked on the road, she didn't seem to be in high spirits.
This made Yoon Li-chen, who was traveling with Gu Wan, very nervous. "Gu Wan, are you feeling unwell?"
"No." Gu Wan shook her head. How could she not feel well?
If she really felt uncomfortable, it would be more accurate to say that her unease made Gu Wan feel uncomfortable.
"Gu Wan …" Yoon Li-chen called Gu Wan's name in a low voice. "I mean, do you have a fever?"
When Yoon Li-chen's voice fell, he even had an impulse to test the temperature of Gu Wan's forehead himself …
However, when Yoon Li-chen thought of what happened last time, he suddenly felt a little scared.
He knew that Gu Wan resisted his approach, so Yoon Li-chen played his part.
Gu Wan looked at Yoon Li-chen and couldn't help laughing. "Yoon Li-chen, I really don't feel unwell, and I don't have a fever. Why don't you believe me?"
There was some helplessness and tiredness in Gu Wan's tone.
Yoon Li-chen immediately corrected his attitude and answered Gu Wan seriously, "I believe you. I believe everything you say."
When Yoon Li-chen spoke, his eyes were fixed on Gu Wan.
Feeling Yoon Li-chen's burning gaze, Gu Wan had a bad feeling. The atmosphere seemed a little inappropriate.
So, Gu Wan chuckled and calmed herself down. "Okay, I'm tired. You must be tired too. Let's stop here. We'll arrive at the next corner."
Gu Wan looked around and found that the scene was familiar to her. Then she said to Yoon Li-chen.
Yoon Li-chen seemed to want to say something, but Gu Wan smiled and shook her head. She put her slender finger to her lips and said, "You don't have to say it."
Seeing this, Yoon Li-chen's expression was a little hard to accept. He didn't seem to understand why Gu Wan did this.
"If you want to see me again next time, you don't have to worry about it now."
Gu Wan smiled when she saw Yin Li's gloomy expression. Her voice was as cold as usual, like the ice flowing over the mountains.
Although the voice was close, it seemed to come from far away.
Just like the feeling that Gu Wan gave Yoon Li-chen, he couldn't understand her.
In Yoon Li-chen's mind, Gu Wan didn't like him, but Gu Wan was willing to take the initiative to contact him.
If Gu Wan liked him, she wouldn't let him see her. She even threatened him with seeing her in the future.
Yoon Li-chen really felt that Gu Wan was very annoying. But what could he do?
There was nothing he could do except to listen to her.
In this way, Yoon Li-chen and Gu Wan said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways.
When Gu Wan walked on the way back to the Gong Family's house alone, she had an inexplicable feeling that she didn't belong.
In the past, Gu Wan had wishfully thought that the Gu family was her home, but she realized that there was only coldness left without her mother.
There was a time when Gu Wan had nowhere to go and no one took her in. At that time, Gu Wan didn't know where her home was at all.
This was also the reason why Gu Wan softened her heart when she knew that Mo Xuerong had nowhere to go.
It was because Gu Wan had experienced it that she knew how sad it was. So she wanted to give as much warmth to others as possible.
However, Gu Wan seemed to forget how to give what she lacked to others.
So, when two people who were both cold met, it would only be colder — bone-piercing coldness, heart-piercing coldness.
But she didn't know whose bone was piercing, whose heart was being pierced, or whether it was hurting one's enemy a thousand times while hurting oneself eight hundred times.
It seemed that she occasionally heard warm words like "Let's go home" or "Come home with me" from Gong Mohan. But so what?
It was just a word from Gong Mohan's mouth, casual, casual, without any real meaning.
Otherwise, how could he let another person occupy this "home"?
It was probably because the speaker was just saying it, and the listener accidentally took it seriously.
Thinking of this, Gu Wan walked on the lonely road and suddenly had a feeling of sadness.
She smiled sarcastically. She didn't know whether she was laughing at her naivety and simplicity or at the man's words that couldn't be trusted.
Gu Wan walked alone. Although she was lonely, she felt the taste of freedom from the whistling wind.
Speaking of which, it seemed that Gu Wan had been used to a life of carrying a heavy burden all these years. It was rare for her to have such a leisure time, as if the world had slowed down.
This was also one of the reasons why Gu Wan asked Yoon Li-chen to leave and didn't need to see her off. She wanted to feel what it was like to be alone.
Therefore, it took Gu Wan a long time to reach the place which could be reached after turning a corner.
When Gu Wan saw the Gong Family's mansion in front of her, she let out a deep breath and murmured silently, "I will be here eventually."
When Gu Wan walked in, she didn't know whether it was an illusion or not, but she felt that the housekeeper looked at her with a strange feeling.
It seemed that there was some resentment in his eyes.
Gu Wan didn't understand. She didn't think she had offended the housekeeper.
What was more unusual was that Mo Xuerong was waiting for Gu Wan to come in at the door. Seeing Mo Xuerong's welcoming posture, Gu Wan even had a feeling that she was doubting her life.
"You're finally back. You know …"
Before Mo Xuerong finished, Gu Wan interrupted him coldly. Looking at Mo Xuerong's exultant expression, Gu Wan felt disgusted.
How to describe that feeling? It was as if he had swallowed a fly.
"Don't." Gu Wan said, "You don't need to be so warm to me. Anyway, I don't want you to stay."
Gu Wan's straightforward words made Mo Xuerong speechless.
If it was in the past, Mo Xuerong would definitely fight back, or at least take the opportunity to pretend to be innocent and weak.
After all, this was what Mo Xuerong was best at.
However, unexpectedly, this time Mo Xuerong didn't respond.
Gu Wan didn't ask more. She didn't care about Mo Xuerong's affairs and even felt a little disgusted.
But soon, Gu Wan knew why.
Sometimes the world was really strange. If you deliberately looked for something, you might not find it.
But if you didn't look for it, it would appear naturally.
For example, at this moment, Gu Wan didn't look for the reason, but she already knew.
Just when Gu Wan wanted to climb the stairs and go directly to the room on the second floor, Gu Wan heard the sound of leather shoes suddenly landing.
It should have been a crisp sound, but at this moment, there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Gu Wan stopped but didn't turn around.
Because Gu Wan knew that even if she didn't turn around, what would come would come.
Just as expected …/p
Gu Wan heard a voice coming from behind, "You still know to come back?"
There was no doubt that this was Gong Mohan's voice.
Gu Wan smiled and turned around. "Is there a problem?"
When Gong Mohan heard this, he raised his eyebrows out of habit. Gu Wan, you've made me worry all the way here, and yet you're still so nonchalant about asking if there's a problem.
Were all the people who had done wrong so arrogantly and righteously these days?
Gong Mohan was so angry that he laughed. "Don't you think it's immoral for a married woman to take a walk and go on a date with another man?"
"You followed me?" Hearing Gong Mohan's words, Gu Wan realized it immediately.
"I'm not interested in following a woman with bad morals." Gong Mohan curled his lips and looked disdainful.
