Zhao Yu and Xue Zhan walked out of the office together. Zhao Yu whispered that she would not eat with them, thus Wang Qi and Xia Nan's eyes lit up instantly.
Xue Zi'ang's face was even more unsightly, but after a few seconds, he suddenly grinned again and showed a smile: "Going to lunch? Add me in."
Before Zhao Yu made any statement, Xue Zhan gave him a cold look: "None of your business."

 

The smile on his face vanished, Xue Zi'ang stared straight at Xue Zhan: "Uncle, don't you remember what you promised me?"
Xue Zhan didn't say anything, but suddenly reached out and hugged Zhao Yu's waist as an answer.
Zhao Yu was startled by his behavior, but she didn't show it on her face, she just stood next to him cooperatively. She clearly saw Xue Zi'ang clenched his fists.
The atmosphere in the entire office was extremely cold in an instant, no one dared to make a sound. Even Wang Qi and Xia Nan, who had been waiting for this drama for a long time, couldn't help but felt anxious. The other secretaries were thinking, if the two bosses start fighting, what does it takes to seperate them.
But Xue Zhan was obviously not going to have too much entanglement with Xue Zi'ang, so he hugged Zhao Yu and walked to the elevator.
Although Xue Zi'ang still clenching his fists, he didn't catch up even half a step.

 

It was not until they entered the elevator and watched the elevator door closed that Xue Zhan took his hand away from Zhao Yu's waist.
He didn't speak, and Zhao Yu could only stand quietly, silently speculating on what was in his mind.
She was self-conscious, so she didn't think that Xue Zhan suddenly fell in love with her, but his behavior today is really surprising and confusing.

 

The restaurant that Xue Zhan chose was near the company, the private room was reserved, and the dishes were already prepared.
When the waiter finished serving the dishes and left, he said, "I promised him that I won't have anything to do with you."
Zhao Yu was not surprised. In fact, since she chose to approach Xue Zhan through Xue Zi'ang as shortcut, she had already considered this issue.
For her, their uncle-nephew relationship was both a benefit and a disadvantage. After all, under normal circumstances, no uncle would snatch his own nephew's woman.
Zhao Yu didn't speak, waiting for him to continue.

 

Xue Zhan slowly ate two mouthfuls of dishes and then said again: "You can observe his state of mind during this period of time, because of you, it is not very good. His mother and grandfather have come to me and told me that if you keep on wavering. It'll be all messed up."
Zhao Yu understood, it was nothing more than that the Xue family didn't want she and Xue Zi'ang to continue on unclear relationship, even if Xue Zi'ang had always been one-sidedly seeking reconciliation, so Xue Zhan came to settle this matter.

 

Glancing at her lightly, he continued: "It was Xue Zi'ang's mistake after all, so I'll respect your choice. You can think about it and carefully make a decision."
To put it bluntly, it was the Xue family who forced Xue Zi'ang to ask her for a closure.
Her anger towards Xue Zi'ang, her revenge against Xue Zi'ang, did she just want to teach him a lesson and get back together, or did she just plainly hate him, and even if her revenge was over, she wasn't going to be with him anymore?
If it was the former, the Xue family was willing to accept her; if it was the latter, the Xue family will not allow her to continue tossing Xue Zi'ang like this.

 

Zhao Yu smiled: "I made it very clear in President Xue's office just now. In the future, whether President Xue wants me to leave Hua Can or do something else, please tell me directly."
Xue Zhan asked, "You really want to leave Hua Can?"
Zhao Yu was silent with hesitation appeared on her face. At first, she didn't leave Hua Can because of Xue Zi'ang.
After she passed the days when she was angry and has calmed down, if she really wanted to leave Hua Can, she could go to Xue Zhan for help, or even Xue Zi'ang's grandfather or his mother. They were not as naive as Xue Zi'ang, forcing a mere employee who wants to resign to keep working at the company. After all, she was not the best candidate for Mrs. Xue in the future.
So in the following days, Zhao Yu gradually revealed her hesitation to Wang Qi and the others.
Same as what she told Ji Sui, Hua Can is a very good company, don't know how many people want to join in. Not only her position now, but the three years she has survived there was even more precious. Aside her relationship with Xue Zi'ang, judging purely based on the perspective of her own career development, she has only been in the workplace for more than three years, and she can be considered a newcomer. This is her first job after graduating from college. She ought to be ambitious for everything she has now, which is normal and fits her personality.
Xue Zhan already knew what she was thinking, otherwise he would not have asked her this question.

 

Looking at her hesitating, he was even more aware: "Then you don't have to leave, just continue with today's acting."
"President Xue's meaning..."
"Long pain is worse than short pain."
"Aren't you afraid he will find out?"
Xue Zhan slowly took a sip of tea: "My own nephew, naturally I understand him, but he doesn't understand me, and it seems that he doesn't understand you well enough too. It just so happens that I can help you to get revenge on him as you wish."
So that Xue Zi'ang won't realize that they were acting, make Xue Zi'ang can't stand it and will give up on her voluntarily.
It sounded like he was helping her to get revenge on Xue Zi'ang and got rid of Xue Zi'ang's entanglement, but in fact, it was for his nephew's own good. From the beginning to the end, he's on the side of the Xue family.

 

Peering at the leisurely and indifferent man opposite her, Zhao Yu had a very strong feeling for the first time, perhaps she had chosen the wrong target from the beginning.
Because she really didn't have the confidence to seduce this man and let him do what she wanted him to do for her.
Even if she won the bet on Xu Miao's wedding day last time, even if Xue Zi'ang really cared about her, it would be impossible to get revenge through Xue Zi'ang.
After all, Xue Zhan is the one who really holds all the power. No matter how important Xue Zi'ang was in the Xue family, without Xue Zhan's permission, there were a lot of things that Xue Zi'ang couldn't afford to do.
