Chapter 29: Like Winning a Prize (1)

After satisfying himself, he immediately left as usual, but this time, he did not even go to the study and directly stormed down the stairs, before she heard the sounds of the door slamming shut. Then she could hear the engines roaring, as his car went further and further until there was no more noise.

When he finally left, Lu Weixi heaved a sigh of relief, as she laid on the bed in exhaustion, not even wanting to move an inch.

However, it was good. Perhaps her previous sentence had some effect, so Qin Zhiyou did not treat her too harshly. The most painful place in her entire body was probably still her arm that he had dragged her with. Of course, it was not that she was not worried. For Xiao Qian and Xiao Chen, she had called for a car to take them back, after they were drunk, but she did not know if they had reached home safely yet. Also, Qin Zhiyou had hit CEO Liu, but CEO Liu would definitely not blame it on him, so she would have to take responsibility for this.

Previously, she had paid close to thirty thousand for Liu Yiyi’s case, and CEO Liu’s case would end there. Besides, he was still injured. In addition to his injuries, she did not know how much she had to compensate him. Paying money was still secondary, as she was more afraid of being chased out of the company.

What would she do then?

However, there was no use worrying about it as things had already gotten to this state. She had made mental preparations for both giving compensation and getting fired. She would cross the bridge when she came to it, and at most, she would just change to another company and start all over again.

There was no use crying over spilled milk.

In a daze, she slept until morning and came down listlessly. When she was eating breakfast, Auntie Hao was standing beside her and she had asked the rest to leave. She coughed and started to announce, “Young Master said that initially, as he did not come back a single day this month, he should only pay you fifty thousand dollars for your living expenses, but because you were ‘passionate’ last night, he’ll take it as if he’s helping the needy. However, though he’s helping the poor, it was agreed that he would pay you ten thousand a night, but he’s in a good mood today, so he showed extra kindness and gave you thirty thousand.”

His words were filled with twists and turns and it was difficult for Auntie Hao to remember them. As she recited it, she kept looking at the hints in her small booklet. Lu Weixi waited for Auntie Hao to finish her words before nodding in acknowledgment. As her car was still at STAR, she took the train to the office.

The moment she entered the office, Xiao Chen ran toward her with red eyes. “Lu Gong!”

Lu Weixi’s face froze once she saw her expression. Did CEO Liu come to cause trouble? However, she heard Xiao Chen wailing, “Lu Gong, I drank too much last night and left you alone. Are you okay?”

Listening to her say that, at least it meant that CEO Liu had not come to lodge a complaint, which made Lu Weixi heave a sigh of relief. “It’s okay. Can’t you see that I’m doing fine? CEO Liu…”

“We haven’t heard anything from him yet.”

Since he did not say anything, she had to first strike while the iron was hot. She hurriedly ran to her superior’s office and reported that the deal would most likely be off, as there was some unhappiness during the business talks. Although her superior was not pleased, he also knew CEO Liu’s character, so he just let her off after some light scolding.

After waiting for another week in anxiety, CEO Liu still had not come up and caused trouble, which finally reassured Lu Weixi.
