Chapter 40: The Unspoken Truth

  Taking a stroll in the gentle breeze and light rain to update a chapter, thank you for your support all along.

  "Is this your attitude towards work?"

  An Le's face suddenly turned red, she wasn't someone who easily backed down when faced with something.

  "With an attitude like yours, you still want to be in politics? You'd better just do housework, I think that's the most suitable job for you." Jingyang's smile was so sarcastic.

  An Le's eyebrows furrowed, her lips tightly pursed. She couldn't say anything to him, although she was unhappy, but she wouldn't use language to attack him. Maybe after today, she would never come to work here again. She didn't want to leave a bad impression on him anymore.

  She turned around and walked out, Jingyang looked at her back and said: "I'll give you one more night to think about it."

  "It's okay, I've thought it through."

  "Is it? Remember to leave room for yourself when speaking."

  An Le's heart skipped a beat.

  "If you need to calm down, you don't have to tutor Messi tonight."

  An Lele ignored him and walked out of the office.

  As she walked out of the Far Sun Building, she felt much brighter. Working under such a boss, she would get mental illness.

  As soon as I entered the house, I saw my mother busy running around, and even the old luggage that had not been used for a long time was taken out. What's going on? Are we going to travel? But what about Grandpa?

  Her grandfather sat in his wheelchair, a relieved smile on his face, and beckoned her over as he saw her return.

  "What's going on?" Lele asked.

  Her grandfather patted her hand, just smiled, with tears in his eyes.

  Her mother came over and sat beside her, tidying up her hair, with sparkling tears in her eyes.

  "Le Le, thank you, Mom and Grandpa both thank you."

  "Huh? Mom, what's wrong?"

  Mom handed over a contract and said: "Look at this."

  An Le brought it over and read it carefully, only to find that it was a "Consent Form for Admission to the Far Sun Sanatorium and Treatment".

  "What is this?"

  "This is what Jiang Zong from your company brought over, Lele. You know that in this life, Mom's only wish was to send your grandfather to a sanatorium overseas for treatment, but our family's situation never allowed it. Now that wish has finally come true, and it's free! How could I not be happy? But Mom's words made An Lele's heart fall, and shatter into pieces."

  A conspiracy, this is a conspiracy, a carefully crafted plot by the evil demon Jing. No wonder when she resigned in the afternoon, he said to give her one night's thinking time, it turned out that at that time he had already...

  ……

  Lè Lè felt like she was going crazy, this time she really couldn't escape the clutches of the evil demon. Looking at her mother and grandfather's joyful expressions, she didn't have the heart to disappoint them, but what could she do?

  "Le Le, you must work hard, so your grandfather can continue to enjoy this benefit." Mom said with a bitter tone.

  Lele bit her lip and nodded, she couldn't speak the truth, no!

  In fact, the little joy in her heart has already cried out loud, now she seems to have signed a lifelong contract with Jingyang, letting him oppress her for ten thousand years, alas, her life is really more bitter than rhubarb...

  Just then, her phone rang with the tune of "Reflections on a Moonlit Night", she almost burst into tears, but in the next moment, she rushed into her bedroom, locked the door and answered the call. How dare he still call!

  The call was connected, and Jingyang's overbearing voice came: "How is the consideration going? Do you want to quit?"

  "I'm going to kill you!" An Lele said furiously.

  "Okay, I'm downstairs at your place."

  Lele looked out of the window and indeed Jingyang's car was parked there.

  She stormed out of the door.

  When she pulled open the car door of Jingyang with a fierce momentum and looked into his deep eyes, her accumulated anger and momentum were all sucked away by his eyes.

  Soft on those who feed you, short with those whose hands you take; now she's already a cripple!! Combat power is zero!!

  "After holding it in for half a day, she finally said: 'How could you do this?'"

  "You won't be able to quit now."

  "How can you always bully me!" An Lele really burst into tears, she knew the minimum medical expenses of Yuanyang Sanatorium for a day, and this money was probably not enough to pay off in a year or two, plus the ones owed before, it's simply a huge debt...

  "You just work hard and all this will be offset."

  "What a wonderful thing! You can deceive my mom and my grandfather, but I won't believe it." An Lele sobbed.

  "I have it right here." Jingyang said with certainty as he looked at her, originally thinking that she would be grateful, but unexpectedly this little money lover thought of...

  An Le continued to cry.

  "Alright, stop crying!" Jingyang couldn't bear to see her cry blindly.

  "How can you be so overbearing? You've already driven me to desperation, and now you won't even let me cry. Is this a working hour?" An Lele spoke out of turn.

  "Alright, hurry up and cry. I'll give you half an hour to finish crying. After that, don't let me see you cry again. Once you're done, focus on your work!"

  An Le's eyes welled up with tears, his overbearing attitude was really everywhere, the intimidating posture made her feel repulsed.

  She rubbed away her tears on her cheeks with her hands and said: "Alright, what do you want me to do?"

  Jing Yang knew that with this girl's unyielding personality, she would definitely react like this.

  "You just need to be at my beck and call." Jingyang stretched out his hand and gently tapped her red nose.

  "I'm not 110, I can't just arrive at a moment's notice!" She leaned back in her chair, with an air of "do your worst" nonchalance.

  "Oh? If you can't do it, I'll have your grandfather kicked out of the nursing home, think carefully!"

  "You!"

  "I mean what I say!"

  Jingyang had long thought of various strategies to deal with her, but unfortunately, Lele stepped into his carefully designed "trap" step by step.

  Lele knew she couldn't outdo him, so she had to compromise. She didn't even know how many times she had made this kind of unprincipled compromise. She felt that her bottom line was getting lower and lower. "I understand."

  "Bad attitude!" Jingyang coldly said with a hint of dissatisfaction, staring at her emptily.

  Lè Lè had already imagined Jǐng Yáng being beaten to a pulp in her heart, but she suppressed the anger burning within her and forced out a smile that was even uglier than crying. She said in a sugary tone: "I know."

  "Alright, I know. Tomorrow morning, I'll be at the company at 6 o'clock, so you need to come to my place at 5 o'clock to help me prepare for work."

  "Huh?"

  "Assistant, goodbye!"

  Jingyang opened the car door and pushed her out of the car. She stood alone there in disarray, while he drove away and disappeared.

  "What a monster, what a scoundrel!" she bellowed, startling the elderly ladies dancing in the square nearby, who instantly turned their gaze on her, piercing her with a thousand holes!

  She had no choice but to return home and saw her mother still happily tidying up things. She couldn't tell her about all this no matter what.
