PA Wen quickly rushed to the bank after the call.

In the meeting room, Cheng Jie looked at Ye Yuwei as if he was enjoying the drama.

Ye Yuwei looked up from her documents after hearing her name and looked at Gu Juexi.

“Can’t you see that Manager Ouyang is already doingthe introductions?” Ye Yuwei answering back calmly.

“What do I pay you for if Manager Ouyang is doing everything?” said Gu Juexi who was leaning back on the chair. Gu Juexi felt lucky that he actually paid Ye Yuwei her salary.

‘Pay? He has the audacity to bring this up?’

Ouyang Xianxin held Ye Yuwei who was on the verge of breaking down.

Just when Ye Yuwei was going to flip out, Ouyang Xianxin calmed her down and whispered to her, “The head office informed that Mr. Gu has approved your claim, you can expect to receive the money this afternoon.”

Ye Yuwei looked at the man who obviously knew about this, took a deep breath, and swallowed her words.

Knowing Gu Juexi, she was very well aware that he could take back his approval any time before the money reached her if she upsets him.

“So, anything else that Mr. Gu would like me to explain?” asked Ye Yuwei after taking another deep breath.

“No,” Gu Juexi answered while fidgeting with his phone.

Ye Yuwei looked away, holding in her urge to slap this man in his face. She suddenly missed the cold, quiet Gu Juexi.

Cheng Jie looked at the two of them with a faint smile on his face. “Mr and Mrs. Gu have a different kind of spice for life… that is quite appealing.”

Gu Juexi squinted, not knowing if it was because of his current mood or because he disagreed with what Cheng Jie said.

Ye Yuwei’s hand trembled for a second and then looked up and said, “I won’t climb this social ladder.”

“Says the one who has been on it for the past three years.” Annoyed by what Ye Yuwei said, Gu Juexi retorted.

“I had a hard time climbing the ladder, so I am coming down now,” said Ye Yuwei emotionlessly, with very subtle resignation and bitterness in her tone.

Gu Juexi threw his phone onto the table after what Ye Yuwei said, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Ye Yuwei held her breath subconsciously and began to tap her fingers on the document to calm her nerves.

Gu Juexi stared at Ye Yuwei who was looking down.

Ye Yuwei can feel her heart pounding and herself suffocating.
