Chapter 490 Indecision_1
"Sure, how should I address the two of you?" Su Yun said this with poise. When she was in school, she held a high position, and the school had high hopes for her. However, due to some reasons, she was wrongfully dismissed and had to return home. And now, just as she was about to get married to her boyfriend, this had happened.
Sometimes Su Yun wondered if the heavens simply disliked her. It seemed as though they opened a window for her only to shut it again, as if playing a cruel joke on her by giving her a glimpse of hope before plunging her into despair again. Were these two people going to be the same?
Giving her a little hope before leading her to despair, there wasn’t that much left to hope for. Things would play out as they were meant to, and if in the end it didn’t work out, she thought she might as well jump off a building and end it all. It would surely be quicker than living through this agony.
"My name is Kang Yue, and this is my boss, Shen Dong." After introducing herself, Kang Yue looked at Shen Dong with a bit of hesitation, not sure how to introduce him. Should she directly say he was her boyfriend? That didn’t seem quite right. Forget it, a simple introduction would suffice. They probably wouldn’t cross paths at work in the future, so there was no need for details. Thus, she merely said, "My boss, Shen Dong."
But then she thought, that wasn’t right. The woman was in dire need of money, and Shen Dong was known for making good money. What if she set her sights on Shen Dong?
This wouldn’t do; she had to make a move, but the words were already out there. If she were to add now that he was her boyfriend, it would seem rather odd. Well, the other woman didn’t seem to bear any malice, so never mind that for now. She had to make a little subconscious gesture.
She stretched out her hand and lightly hooked his arm to let the other woman know he was taken and off-limits.
Shen Dong was a bit dumbfounded. Initially unmentioned, he was suddenly introduced and sat there, only to find this little lady not behaving herself, reaching out and hooking his arm so boldly.
They were at work, and she dared to be so impudent. Earlier, she even seemed reluctant to speak more with him. Who would have thought that she’d become so bold after coming out? Anyway, let it be; let’s wait and see.
Su Yun originally had no interest in understanding the relationship between the two, assuming it was simply a typical boss-subordinate dynamic. However, the scene before her suddenly became intriguing. She realized that Kang Yue was trying to intimidate her.
Telling her not to overthink things or engage in inappropriate actions, Su Yun was not that concerned. This man was not her type, why should she compete for someone else’s man?
All she wanted now was to make enough money to support her younger brother and her family. That was all. Her illusions about other things had faded since her boyfriend gave up on her upon discovering she came from the slums and had a burdensome younger brother. Her heart had already shattered, and she no longer had much faith in love.
