Chapter 12: Investigating Assistant Shen

这个小公寓只有林依瑶经常来访,虽然很小,但她和依瑶已经把它弄得舒适温馨.沈玉婉坐在小沙发上,环顾着公寓.她注意到房间里现在有更多的装饰品.自从成为顾千云的情妇后,她已经很久没有回过这里了.她认为 Yiyao 一定是周末装饰的人.沈玉婉的心中突然充满了一股温暖,她接受了这些变化.但就在这时,她电话的刺耳声音打断了她的思绪.看着屏幕,她的好心情瞬间烟消云散."你在哪?"顾千云低沉而威严的声音从电话里传来."在办公室,加班到很晚,"沈雨婉撒谎,试图掩饰她感到的不安."完美.我的桌子上有一份文件.你能把它拿过来给我吗?听到这话,沈玉婉皱起了眉头."顾先生,已经很晚了.我应该让司机把它带给你吗?"沈助理."沈玉婉通过电话能感觉到他的不耐烦.她重重地叹了口气,勉强同意了.顾千云看着手机的黑屏,嘴角浮现出一丝得意的笑容.奇怪的是,他的情绪似乎有所改善."顾先生,我能帮什么忙吗?"顾千云又打了个电话."看看沈玉婉.""没问题,顾先生."当沈玉婉离开她的公寓时,她瞥了一眼灯光昏暗的街区.几盏路灯只会增加她胸口开始沉淀的不安感."如果我知道,我就不会骗顾千云了.他就像一只水蛭,即使在下班后也会耗尽他的员工,"她低声咕哝道.一盏黄色的车灯突然照亮了她的路,她突然想到了一个想法.沈玉婉加快了脚步,去办公室拿文件.她把电话递给楼下的送货员,提供了顾千云家的地址,然后叫了一辆出租车.顾家的别墅里,顾千云站在窗边,眉头紧锁,凝视着夜色.他的手指上挂着一根香烟.

叮咚,叮咚.

门铃响了,顾千云将香烟扔进烟灰缸,然后走向开门."顾先生,你好.这是沈小姐让我递的文件.请签字.签完后,顾千云给沈玉婉发了一条简短的短信:收到了.沈玉婉若有所思地盯着这条信息.她没想到顾千云竟然没有训斥她.他通常非常讲究,文件几乎总是由她亲自交付.But tonight, Shen Yuwan was exhausted.The next morning, as Shen Yuwan arrived at the office, she ran into Song Yuan.Song Yuan gave her a quick glance before walking into Gu Qianyun's office in her high heels.Shen Yuwan looked at the sleek figure of Song Yuan and then glanced at herself—just a basic blouse and pants—feeling a pang of bitterness in her chest."Assistant Shen, Mr. Gu asked you to go downstairs and bring him a caramel latte," her colleague told her."Alright," Shen Yuwan responded, putting down the files in her hands."Qianyun, when can I start working at the company? I'm getting so eager," Song Yuan said, draping herself across Gu Qianyun's arm as she sat next to him, her voice full of sweetness."Wait a bit. I'll have Assistant Shen arrange things for you. Don't worry," Gu Qianyun replied as he lightly tapped her arm, still focused on his computer screen.

Knock-knock...

Shen Yuwan, carrying the coffee, knocked on the door of Gu Qianyun's office, out of breath."Come in."As she opened the door, she immediately saw Song Yuan sitting next to Gu Qianyun. Shen Yuwan took a deep breath and adjusted her expression before entering."Mr. Gu, here's the coffee you asked for.""This is for Miss Song. You can give it to her," Gu Qianyun said without even looking up.Seeing Gu Qianyun's indifference, Shen Yuwan felt a tightening in her chest. She walked over and handed the coffee to Song Yuan."Ah, it's so hot!" Song Yuan cried out in surprise, spilling some of the coffee on her clothes.Gu Qianyun looked up at the commotion."What happened?" he asked, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the coffee stains on Song Yuan's dress."I—I didn't hold it properly, Mr. Gu," Shen Yuwan stammered, quickly hiding her hands behind her back, feeling flustered."Qianyun, Assistant Shen can't even bring me a coffee properly. This is a new dress!" Song Yuan said, her voice slightly sharp.
