She hid her pregnancy and faked her death, and the CEO turned gray overnight

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. He shouldn't have been so surprised.

It's really scary to see the boss looking like he wants to eat people.

Several senior executives behind him also saw Wenqing lying in John's arms. The two of them were whispering closely together, and they all began to defend Zhou Gu:

"Mr. Zhou, Miss Wen is too heartless. You offended Hua for her and were retaliated by Mr. Hua. You are so busy that you are so busy, but she is behaving intimately with other men, talking and laughing."

"Yes, [-]% of the construction project in the east of the city is caused by the Fahrenheit family. The reason why the Zhou family is in trouble today is all because you are too affectionate, but that woman is really not worthy of your love."

"Yes, she was entangled with Mr. Qin a few days ago. Just now, she has climbed onto a new branch. Such a free-spirited woman is not worthy of you making an enemy of the entire Fahrenheit family for her."

"If you ask me, you'd better give in to Mr. Hua. If we join forces in the future, the Zhou family will be able to establish a firm foothold in the world."

Zhou Gu looked back at a few people and asked lightly, "Did you eat too much salt this morning?"

After saying that, he walked towards the elevator entrance with a sullen face.

Several high-level officials looked at each other and did not react.

One of them asked curiously: "Assistant Xu, what do you mean by Mr. Zhou's words?"

Xu Yang glanced sideways at him and uttered two words coldly, "Salty."

"..."

John actually saw Zhou Gu, but not only did he not remind her of the warmth in his arms, he also turned slightly sideways to block her view.

"You look very bad. Let me take you to my friend's place to have a look."

Wenqing saw that he suddenly became gentle, and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.

This man's face is really like the sky in midsummer, it changes at every turn.

"what ever."

It would be a good idea to let his friend take a look. After he learns that she is terminally ill, maybe he can completely stop thinking about her.

She had failed this man once five years ago, and she did not want to fail him twice, let alone waste his time.

To him, she was just a passer-by, and he shouldn't waste too much emotion and energy on a passer-by.

Emergency room on the third floor.

Xu Yang and several senior executives were comforting the emotional families of the injured in the corridor.

In front of the window sill not far away, Zhou Gu stood there like a sculpture.

The man held a cigarette between his sharp-jointed fingertips and puffed away, the hazy smoke blurring the outline of his facial features.

He quietly stared at a corner of the open-air parking lot, watching as she was gently put into the car by other men.

Even from such a distance, he could still clearly see every expression on her face.

No forcing.

There was no forced smile either.

She was so well-behaved and docile, letting the man wrap his arms around her and walk away.

Thinking back to the moments when she got along with him, she felt instinctive rejection, heartfelt disgust, sometimes distracted, sometimes in a trance.

He could no longer see his shadow in her eyes.

Once upon a time, her whole body and heart were filled with him, and she smiled brightly and openly in his arms, making him feel that the years were peaceful.

But now...

A pinprick-like pain spread from his heart and soon choked his throat. A strong sense of suffocation hit him, and he coughed twice violently.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou..."

Xu Yang's anxious voice came to his ears, pulling him back from his wandering thoughts.

He slowly stretched out his hand to hold his throbbing heart, and asked in a hoarse voice: "What's the matter?"

Xu Yang took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "There was something wrong with the contract signed with Tiansheng two days ago. The other party made a small mistake and threatened to terminate the cooperation."

It was a multi-billion-dollar project. Once it failed, it would be a huge blow to the Zhou family.

At the least, a stock drop will affect performance, but at worst, internal turmoil will harm the fundamentals.

No need to guess, this must be Mr. Hua’s handiwork again.

In order to force Mr. Zhou to submit, he really spent a lot of money this time.

Zhou Gu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a flash of cold anger in his eyes.

He was not afraid of Fahrenheit's retaliation, he was just afraid that there would be no trace of him in her eyes.

For her, he was willing to be the enemy of the entire business world, but she was intimately entangled with his old lover during his most difficult time. How could he bear this?

Anger and jealousy kept boiling in his chest, ruthlessly tearing at his internal organs, causing intense pain.

The image of her meekly leaning into the arms of another man appeared in front of him again. That intimate behavior almost swallowed up his sanity.

"Send someone to check their whereabouts."

Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he sighed in his heart.

If I knew today, why bother?

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now. Where is Tiansheng?"

"Let him terminate the contract and remember to claim triple liquidated damages from them."

"..."

Private clinic.

John stood in front of the window with a sullen face, still digesting the news that Wen Qing was terminally ill.

Wenqing was much calmer than him. She looked at the male doctor opposite with a smile and asked the question that she had been thinking about for a while:

"Professor Zheng, can three-month-old embryos be taken out and made into specimens?"

She wanted to give Zhou Gu a big gift after her death.
