Chapter 79: line with translation of chapter title

Tushan Jiu - Tushan Jiu

When Tushan Jiu and Xu Airu came up, they saw the employees outside whispering to each other about something.

As soon as they saw Xu Airu, they immediately sat back down in their own seats.

Xu Airu - Xu Airu

Qu Chaoyang - Qu Chaoyang

They didn't know who this girl, whose arm was linked with the chairwoman's and who appeared very close to her, was.

A group of people exchanged glances and whispered for a while, and their conclusion was that this girl was very likely to be their future president's wife!

The predicted heavy rain from a couple of days ago had left many people wondering just who she was — what kind of divine being she could be!

Now that they've seen her face, all they can say is that this future president's wife is a perfect match for their president!

Project Department Director - Project Department Director

What's more, she looks gentle and tranquil, giving people a very comfortable feeling at first glance.

Tushan Jiu felt those gazes, she turned her head and gave them a polite smile.

In an instant, many more "fans" appeared.

But the next second she spoke: "There are still forty minutes until quitting time, and most of you have forty percent of your work left—let's push!"

Wow, the little fairy instantly turned into a devil.

Xu Aixru beside her, though already used to it, was still amused by her straightforward nature.

She laughed and told everyone, "She's just joking with you, stop gossiping and get back to work."

Tushan Jiu glanced at Xu Aixru, pondering a bit.

After a moment, she understood.

Then, in a generous tone, she said: "Work hard, everyone—I'll treat the whole company to afternoon tea today!"

In an instant, the tenth floor erupted in cheers: "Long live the President's wife! Thank you, President's wife!"

Tushan Jiu waved her hand, "No big deal!"

The interview room door opened, and Xie Shiyu, hearing the commotion outside, walked out.

Then he heard everyone flattering Tushan Jiu in various ways.

He chuckled softly, his Jiujiu is just too adorable!

Behind them, Chang Yaohui, brows tightly furrowed, had no mind to listen to what they were saying.

He made a call, but his mother-in-law didn't answer.

So he prepared to go to his mother-in-law's house to settle the matter.

As Xie Shiyu said, he would have to face it sooner or later; better short pain than long—while the child is still young, if the talks fall apart and can't be mended, and the other side refuses the child, at least it would lessen her hurt a bit.

Of course, these were just thoughts that popped into his own head.

He still wanted to know exactly where he fell short compared to that Chaoyang Qu!

Chang Yaohui was lost in thought, completely unaware that Tushan Jiu was staring at him.

She turned slightly toward Xie Shiyu standing beside her and asked in a not-so-loud voice: "The employee you said had some issues to handle—is that him?"

Xie Shiyu nodded, smoothing her high ponytail today, "Yeah, that's right—he's the project department director, Chang Yaohui, a personal family matter."

Tushan Jiu raised an eyebrow, "I didn't expect it, but quite a coincidence."

Upon hearing Tushan Jiu say that, Xu Aixru immediately gossiped, "What do you mean 'quite a coincidence'? Little Jiu, do you know Director Chang?"

Tushan Jiu shook her head, "No, I just happened to see a couple in a shop yesterday."

Xu Aixru and Xie Shiyu both looked at her.

What connection could there be between the two?

Suddenly Xie Shiyu thought of Qu Chaoyang, his brows relaxing a bit; he guessed there must be some fortunate misunderstanding here.

Tushan Jiu also didn't explain, took a deep breath, and muttered, "Forget it, maybe it's fate—I've met them twice now; let's wrap this up and go eat."

She called out to Chang Yaohui: "Director Chang."

Chang Yaohui lifted his head to look at her, seeming a bit unfamiliar, and glanced doubtfully at Xie Shiyu: "Mr. Xie, this person......"

Xie Shiyu introduced: "This is my fiancée, Tushan Jiu, she is a Sword Debt person."

Upon hearing him introduce her like that, Tushan Jiu couldn't help but glance at him, a warm feeling flashing in her heart.

That's right, her profession is indeed a Sword Debt person—nothing to hide.

Nowadays society views everything through tinted glasses, and it's an era when such metaphysics has declined.

Some professions look mysterious, yet are also open to much interpretation.

But Xie Shiyu introduced his profession without the slightest hesitation, making her affection for him rise almost too quickly.

She thought, Grandpa really stepped in some good luck back then!

Chang Yaohui had never heard of a Sword Debt person and didn't know what it was, but he knew this CEO's fiancée seemed to have some abilities.

Tushan Jiu took out a nail clipper from her pocket and handed it over.

Because she saw that Chang Yaohui had just looked bewildered upon hearing of a Sword Debt person, she concisely explained the rules of sword debt, and also told him that, after the prophecy is fulfilled, the compensation for the Sword Debt lies within their capacity to bear.

Chang Yaohui understood; this prophecy means divination.

Has the CEO's fiancée perceived something, prompting her to proactively offer a sword debt to him?

He hesitated a moment, then decided he still wanted to prepare himself mentally first, to see what she would say.

Thus Chang Yaohui undertook the sword debt.

"The deal is preliminarily settled; do we need to avoid each other?" Tushan Jiu asked, retracting her hand.

Chang Yaohui gave a wry smile and shook his head: "It's come to this point; there's nothing left to avoid—let's just speak plainly."

He thought, his job is probably not going to be kept; from now on they won't see each other.

It also happens to let that adulterer Qu Chaoyang not be able to hold his head up at this company!

In any case, he's the one with evidence; they're the ones who are wrong!

But the words Tushan Jiu spoke left him frozen in place.

Tushan Jiu said: "The person you just hit is your brother-in-law. Your wife has a little sister who was separated from her since childhood; they are identical twins."

After she finished speaking, the office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Not far away, the spectators who had witnessed everything today widened their eyes and gasped, but because Xie Shiyu was there, they didn't dare to comment.

Chang Yaohui remained stunned for a long moment before finally reacting.

He swallowed and stammered, "Identical, identical twins also… also can't possibly look exactly alike, right? You, you must have miscalculated."

He shared Xie Shiyu's view; after so many years as husband and wife, their builds and physiques were very familiar to him.

That woman's height and build were……

Wait, that's not right!

That night it was very dark, and he also didn't get too close.

And as they walked past him, although Qu Chaoyang was holding his arm, she also kept her largely shielded at his side.

Their exchanged gaze also felt somewhat unfamiliar.

"Don't think about it—can't you get in touch with your loved one? Go to the hospital; you'll know once you're there."

Little did they know, at the same moment Tushan Jiu finished speaking, Chang Yaohui's mother-in-law, who was far away at the Central City Hospital, was also standing dazed in the hospital hallway.

Wan Xiuqin had just seen a woman who looked almost exactly like her daughter, hurrying past her.

But her daughter was clearly in the inpatient ward receiving an IV for low blood sugar!
