“Is he gone?”

Gu Huai came out of the inner room, wiping his hair with a white bath towel, his soft forehead hair wetly attached to his temples, and lined with his fair face, he looked very handsome.

Yan Chen didn’t reply, went over and stroked his hair. His deep eyes showed a hint of tenderness, “Blow dry before coming out, otherwise you can catch a cold.”

Gu Huai tilted his head and raised his eyes to look at him calmly, “Ye Mu has been with you for so long and has accompanied you through so many hardships. Doing this to him, do you not have any feelings?”

Yan Chen’s expression turned cold, “It has always been his wishful thinking. I only agreed to live with him out of sympathy and pity. You must know that I have been sick and tired of him in the past few years.”

Gu Huai looked at him, his eyebrows slightly raised, “Aren’t there any other feelings, like…”

Yan Chen sneered indifferently and interrupted him, “Like what, love? This is not a good joke, Gu Huai. You should know, from beginning to end, I only like you alone. If you didn’t willfully leave the country that year, we would still be the same as we were before and there won’t be such unworthy and someone who insists on sucking up to others as Ye Mu appearing.”

Gu Huai lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Yan Chen fixed his gaze on him for a moment and said, “Are you defending him against injustice now?”

Gu Huai shook his head and spoke gently, “No, I was just thinking how to make up for the gap we’ve had for the past eight years.”

Yan Chen gently caressed his cheek, stepped over and embraced him, his voice magnetic, “Don’t think too much.”

The unique texture of the black sweater and the warm touch between the man’s chests gradually calmed the person’s anxiety. Gu Huai unconsciously nodded his head.

Yan Chen pursed his lower lip slightly, wrapped his arms around him, and dropped an affectionate kiss between his soft hair.

Gu Huai silently closed his eyes. At that moment it felt like time hadn’t washed everything away, Yan Chen still loved him deeply.

…

Ye Mu went to the company early the next morning and submitted his resignation application form. Xu Yang, the director of the HR department, was somewhat surprised when he saw his resignation letter.

“Why is it so sudden? Didn’t you just take on a very important business?”

Ye Mu lowered his gaze and didn’t look at him, his voice undulating and said, “It’s nothing, just tired.”

Xu Yang shrugged, “If that’s the case, I can file an application to Yan Chen to give you an annual leave. With your friendship, it’s not a problem to let you have ten days or half a month.”

Ye Mu was silent for a while. He moved his lips, his tone was calm and composed, “No need, he’s the one who let me go.”

Xu Yang paused, and in just a few seconds, he had most likely already guessed the whole story of the matter, and couldn’t help but persuade patiently, “This is sometimes the case between lovers. They tend to quarrel a lot and always let emotions affect their decisions. How about you take back this resignation application form first and wait until both of you have calmed down before you process it?”

Ye Mu didn’t move a muscle, “We’re all calm.”

As the HR director, Xu Yang had always attached great importance to the work ability of employees. He really didn’t want to let go of such an outstanding talent like Ye Mu, “Actually, you can still think it over.”

Ye Mu saw that he was trying to stop him from leaving, and pushed the application form to him, “I’m quite in a hurry.” Meaning, sign it as soon as possible.

Xu Yang no longer forced him, with a somewhat helpless sigh, he got up to handle his resignation.

Ye Mu’s relationship with everyone in the company wasn’t very good, and no one was there to see him off when he left.

Xu Yang felt a bit of sympathy when he saw him alone, and escorted him all the way to the entrance of the company.

Ye Mu said his thanks and entered the elevator.

As the automatic door closed, he saw pity in Xu Yang’s eyes.

Yes, the employees in the company knew about his relationship with Yan Chen. Xu Yang was so smart, he should have guessed it.

He was dumped by Yan Chen.

And also was dumped very uglily. Leaving no trace of affection behind.

“Ding dong”

The elevator slowly opened on the first floor, Ye Mu raised his eyes and saw Yan Chen.

Yan Chen also saw him, still with the same face as before, the indifference cannot be further indifferent.

Ye Mu looked at him and didn’t say anything.

Yan Chen didn’t stop, directly brushed past him, and entered the elevator, just like a stranger.

Ye Mu smiled wryly and walked out with the cardboard box in his arms.

While waiting at the bus stop, he lit a cigarette.

The cigarette of a different brand was a bit strong. Ye Mu choked before taking a few sips, and couldn’t stop coughing for a while.

There was a tearing pain in his throat, but he was oblivious to it and silently continued smoking without stopping.

The cigarette butts, one after the other, piled up into a small mountain.

As the sky gradually darkened, Ye Mu got up and wiped his face, the depression in his heart was hard to bear.

At that time, Yan Chen experienced a double blow to his emotions and career and once suffered from severe depression, it was he who took him to see a psychiatrist day and night, secretly arranged for people to invest funds in Yan Chen’s company, and used his contacts year after year to pull business for Yan Chen’s company.

When outsiders hear the name of Lotto, they only know how outstanding and capable Yan Chen was, but they never know that Ye Mu was actually the ultimate operator behind the scenes.

For so many years, for Yan Chen, he had hidden all his abilities. He could no longer keep a low profile. He had lived as humble as an ant. He never thought he would have anything in return, but today Yan Chen’s approach was excessively scum and outrageous.

The gray sky suddenly poured down a heavy rain. Ye Mu tiredly slumped in the chair. He felt that he had really raised a white-eyed wolf in the past few years.
