Chapter 314: Hatred Deepens

~6 min read 1,022 words

What? How could this be like this? Just now, wasn't it already said? Said that you were already out of mortal danger?

That's right, so I, I also don't know what to do, Dad, how should we handle this? This document, should I sign it or not?

Sign, you must sign; moreover, if you don't sign, the following emergency measures simply cannot proceed. I'm heading to the hospital right now.

Okay, I understand, Dad, take it slow on the road.

After saying that, he hung up the phone, then took the critical condition notice and signed his name on it directly.

Although he didn't know if this was correct, he also knew it was the only way out.

Just after he finished signing, his phone rang; Xiao Yunzhe glanced at it—it was Geng Jing Shu calling—but at this moment, what mood did he have to talk to her about these things?

He simply, annoyed, hung up directly, and even after hanging up, he actually still felt a sense of panic.

He didn't expect that, just a minute later, Geng Jing Shu's phone called again.

What are you doing? I just hung up your call because I had urgent matters; what are you up to?

He answered the call, and Geng Jing Shu hadn't even managed to utter a sound before Xiao Yunzhe let out a roar into the phone.

Geng Jing Shu on the other end of the line was truly dumbfounded.

He actually just wanted to show concern, to see where Xiao Yunzhe was having lunch and whether he should join him, but Geng Jing Shu never expected Xiao Yunzhe's attitude toward her to be like this.

I, I just wanted to see how you're having lunch at noon.

Whether you eat or not, what's the big deal? Every day besides this, you have nothing else? Fine, don't call me.

After saying that, Xiao Yunzhe hung up the phone directly.

Geng Jing Shu held her phone here, simply dazed for a long while.

Why is he treating me, or rather, why this attitude?

Moreover, this morning it wasn't like this; in the blink of an eye, just half a day later, what else happened?

Inside, he still felt a sense of anxiety rising.

At this moment, he remained in the office, unsure whether to leave or stay.

The data he should have obtained by now, Geng Jing Shu had already copied onto a USB drive; she just called him here to see if he'd return at noon and whether to wait for him to eat.

But she never expected this man to direct such temper at her, making it impossible for Geng Jing Shu to accept it from the heart.

He, frustrated and angry, shoved everything on the desk aside, and his inner feeling was that he had to vent all of this.

That inner feeling of agitation, in fact, no one could possibly understand.

Suddenly, he recalled something: he remembered that Xiao Yunzhe had previously handled phone service, and the account and password were still recorded on his phone.

After thinking of this, Geng Jing Shu hurriedly pulled out her phone, found the record inside, and entered the account and password.

That way, she could see who he had contacted this morning, or rather, where he had been.

After checking through, Geng Jing Shu discovered that from this morning when he entered the company until now, he had made a total of two outgoing calls.

The first phone number was naturally very familiar—it was Xiao Ming's phone—so this call basically had nothing suspicious about it.

The second phone number, however, Geng Jing Shu indeed felt somewhat unfamiliar, and she had never seen this number before.

Thus, Geng Jing Shu copied down the phone number and entered it into the computer.

She never expected that Zong Mengni's name would pop up on the network.

It turned out this phone belonged to Song Mengni; it seems Xiao Yunzhe was indeed still contacting that woman this morning.

After realizing this, Geng Jing Shu continued to review the call records and found that the number of calls Xiao Yunzhe had made to that Zong Mengni was truly not few.

Moreover, many of those calls occurred at night.

One might ask, if they had any work-related contact, they would likely call during the day, so why do they always choose to talk at night?

One call was even made around eleven at night.

Geng Jing Shu truly didn't know how to face all of this.

Basically, it can be confirmed that this man has already gone astray.

Moreover, it should be emotional infidelity first, but whether there is physical infidelity, he dares not lightly judge.

If a man were physically unfaithful, this would still be somewhat easier to talk about.

But if it truly is emotional infidelity, then perhaps all of this is truly irredeemable.

She felt somewhat disheartened; having been by this man's side for so many years, she never expected to end up in such a situation.

She felt guilty toward Xiao Yunzhe before, but now looking at it, she thinks he doesn't owe him anything at all.

Geng Jing Shu even felt that the timing of her betrayal of Xiao Yunzhe was too late; she should have betrayed this man earlier, to make him wear a big hat firmly.

After thinking this through, Geng Jing Shu took out her phone and dialed Zhao Yixuan's number directly.

Jing Shu, what's up, you're calling me now?

Where are you?

Ah, I'm at the company, what's up?

I want to see you now; do you have time?

Hehe, of course I have time; even if I didn't, I'd make time to see you. Tell me, where shall we meet?

I've already obtained some data here; I'm coming over right away—you verify these data, see if they're useful; if not, I'll go steal other data.

Okay, I got it; are we still meeting at that Bin Guan as last time?

Good, you make the arrangements; I'll head over to find you right away.

Before, whenever Geng Jing Shu met Zhao Yixuan, she still felt some hesitation.
