She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

That evening, I just got off work, went downstairs, and met an acquaintance at the company gate.

Zeng Zhi stopped me with a bunch of yellow roses in her hand, her face full of embarrassment: "Manager Meng."

"Assistant Zeng, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" He came to see me after so many days. I had actually guessed his purpose, but I still had to ask clearly.

"I want to apologize to Manager Meng first. It was my fault that night. I facilitated the meeting between Manager Meng and CEO Zhou, but it was Zeng Zhi who made Manager Meng unhappy." Zeng Zhi apologized to me, and his tone sounded very sincere. Then he stuffed the bouquet of yellow roses into my hand, "This is my apology, please accept it, Manager Meng."

I looked at the bouquet of yellow roses, frowned, put my hands behind my back, and refused to take it.

Yellow roses are only used to apologize to each other. Zeng Zhi and I are just alumni and friends. He shouldn't have given me this.

Besides, he often sends flowers to Wu Ling, so he should know the language of yellow roses. How could he have sent the wrong one?

I took a step back, raised the corners of my lips, and smiled politely and calmly: "It's okay, I haven't blamed Assistant Zeng, Assistant Zeng is also doing it for work, it's reasonable, I don't mind, I accept the apology, forget about the flowers, you can take them back."

Zeng Zhi looked down at the bouquet of yellow roses in his arms, and seemed to have just realized that this bouquet of flowers was not appropriate. He immediately put the flowers aside, but handed over a gift bag in his other hand, and said sincerely: "These flowers are not appropriate, but please accept the gift, Manager Meng, otherwise Zeng Zhi will not be able to sleep tonight again."

What does it matter to me whether he can sleep or not? I have no obligation to help him feel at ease.

I didn't want to accept his gift, but I was blocked by him downstairs of the company building. There were so many people coming and going, and it would not be nice to be seen. Also, if Xiao Ye heard about this, I was afraid that it would cause trouble again.

His gift bag was a common and ordinary black bag. I thought it must be a small gift, so it would be fine to accept it. I could only take it first: "Okay, I accept the gift. Assistant Zeng, can you let me go?"

"Okay, sister-in-law... Manager Meng, I'm glad you're willing to accept it." Zeng Zhi seemed very happy that I accepted the gift. He was so happy that his mouth was watering and he called me the wrong name again.

I looked at him silently and was about to leave, but he stopped me again: "Manager Meng, can I have a small request?"

He just apologized and sent me a gift, and now he's asking me for help again.

But I could guess that what he asked me for was related to Wu Ling, so I stopped and asked, "You want me to help you persuade Wu Ling?"

I originally thought that Wu Ling would be coaxed into submission by Zeng Zhi as soon as they met, but looking at Zeng Zhi's current expression, Wu Ling is very angry this time and he hasn't been coaxed even after such a long time.

I guess he wanted me to mediate and persuade Wu Ling.

"No, no, I'm not asking Manager Meng to persuade her for me. I know I did something wrong, and I know she won't forgive me so easily, and I don't want to force her to forgive me. Let this matter take its course." Unexpectedly, Zeng Zhi shook his head repeatedly, then changed the subject and whispered, "But I'm really worried about her health. When she gets angry, she tends to not eat well and drink and stay up late. It's inconvenient for me to show up now, so I want to ask Manager Meng to help me check on her and accompany her. As long as she is safe and healthy, I'll be relieved."

What he wanted was not for Zeng Zhi to forgive him and reconcile with him, but he was worried that Wu Ling would harm her own body because of her anger.

This incident surprised me a little, but when I thought about it carefully, it made sense.

Zeng Zhi really loves Wu Ling. The focus of his love is not on how to get something from love, but on taking Wu Ling as the center and hoping that Wu Ling is well.

This is true love, selfless, dedicated and fulfilling.

Unlike Zhou Hanzhi to me...

No, Zhou Hanzhi has never loved me. Before, he was touched, but now he feels possessive of me.

I have never received his love, this is the saddest thing...

"Okay, I got it." I quickly calmed down and nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Zeng Zhi thanked excitedly. He was so happy that he was confused. After a pause, he realized what was happening and quickly corrected himself, "No, thank you, Manager Meng!"

"You don't have to thank me. Wu Ling is also my good friend. She stood by me when I was in trouble. Now she is in a bad mood, and it is my duty to take care of her. It has nothing to do with Assistant Zeng." I glanced at him, my tone still flat.

Having said this, I walked around him and finally left.

Today is Friday, and I originally wanted to go home and have a good rest, but after Zeng Zhi came to me, I changed my mind.

I sent a message to Wu Ling, but I didn't mention Zeng Zhi at all. I just asked her, "Sister, today is Friday, where are you going to have fun?"

"What do you mean by being so carefree? I don't want to go anywhere. I just want to sleep." The voice message sent by Wu Ling sounded listless and sounded tired and weak.

It sounds like you're in a bad mood.

"The weekend is about to start. Sleeping is not my sister Wu's style. We have to have fun!" I glanced at Zeng Zhi who was catching up with me from behind and listening to me with his ears perked up. I rolled my eyes and deliberately raised my voice, "You haven't been to Jindis for a long time. It's time to go and take a look. The brothers there must miss you. Let's go, shall we set off now?"

Sure enough, as soon as I finished speaking, Zeng Zhi's expression became tense and he looked at me silently.

Humph, didn’t he say to just let things take their own course and not force things? I want to see if he’ll get anxious.

Unexpectedly, Wu Ling's voice message came soon: "No, I'm not in the mood to see my brother."

I was stunned. Wu Ling has really changed. Even her younger brother can't arouse her interest. It seems that this matter is a bit serious.

Without saying a word, I put away my phone, got in the car, and rushed to Wu Ling's house without stopping.

When I arrived at Wu Ling's house, I almost didn't find Wu Ling. I finally pulled her out from the messy quilt, but she looked like all the energy had been drained out of her, and her face was pale.

"How did you get yourself into this state? Are you sick?" I reached out and touched her forehead, but she didn't have a fever.

"I'm not sick, I'm just lazy and don't want to move." Wu Ling fell there limply, and indeed did not move at all.

There's no disease, it's just that the breakup has hurt me.

I put down my things and turned to the kitchen. "People with insufficient Qi and blood will be too lazy to move. You must not have eaten well these days. Just wait, I will make you something delicious."

Wu Ling's bedroom was quite messy, but the kitchen was as tidy as before, and the refrigerator was fully stocked with ingredients.

I selected a few items, made a few light and tasty side dishes, and cooked a pot of easy-to-digest egg paste. I forcibly pulled Wu Ling out of bed and said, "Even if you're heartbroken, you still have to eat well. Come on, eat!"

"He was heartbroken, but it was my sister who dumped him! I'm not sad!" Wu Ling snorted.

Did these two really break up?
