his mermaid

***

"Ah... Boss, you are injured."

Yaochen came back to his senses, the blood in his palm flowed to the edge of the luxurious desk.

Just now, he casually crushed a tall glass.It was originally a glass for enjoying red wine in free time.

"It's okay, it's just a small wound." Yaochen took out a tissue with his other hand to wipe the blood on the table, "Go get the medicine kit."

Cheng Cheng took a few steps back, and hurriedly found out where the medicine box was placed, but she knew nothing about emergency treatment.

"How is it possible, it's bleeding, I'll call an ambulance right away..."

"Don't be alarmed to that point."

He wanted to call Cheng Cheng to stop, but she still went out to call someone.After that, a member who knew how to treat wounds came in to help, and a group of people were watching the situation at the door.

The wound was not too deep, and it hurt only after it was bandaged.

When he was in college, he once crushed a glass because of anger.After a while, Yueguo went out of the room and found him looking for a medicine box, and hurriedly treated his wound without saying a word.For some reason, there seemed to be tears in the corners of Yue Guo's eyes at that time, and that appearance was really pitiful.Although there was an awkward situation, Yaochen immediately forgave him, unable to lose his temper with Yueguo.

But the next day, Yue Guo quietly moved out of his home.

If he had held back something the night before, probably everything would have been different.

"How could the boss be injured?"

"What happened?"

People in the company who learned about the incident gathered around to ask Cheng Cheng about the situation. Fortunately, the boss did not hold her accountable.

Cheng Cheng's mind was in a mess, and he finally dismissed them all.

She was sure that Yaochen became very annoyed after the phone call in the morning.

When she went in to deliver the materials, Yaochen hadn't spoken to the other party yet.Afterwards, Yaochen called that number and asked if the other party was the manager of a certain company, and she also left the office.About 30 minutes later, when she went in to deliver things again, Yaochen's expression was completely different from before. Although the boss was usually indifferent, he would never show tongue-smacking or extreme irritability, and it was even more impossible for him to throw a dog for no reason. The glass was crushed, how much effort did it take to do it?

The only person who can make the boss show such an expression is probably his lover.But that call was not to Mr. Gao, but to a stranger, Cheng Cheng would inevitably be puzzled.

Yaochen didn't care about the wound on his hand, and continued to look at the computer screen and start working.Cheng Cheng couldn't help asking: "Boss, what happened? Is it the company's problem?"

"No. About my injury, don't inform other people, especially my mother. If anyone likes to talk, leave it to the personnel department."

In fact, no one would talk too much, because it was always the company's policy not to talk about any personal matters, Cheng Cheng still nodded.It seems that this matter has something to do with the feelings of the boss. I have to say that she is sometimes interested.She has been in touch with some of Yaochen's private life, especially Mr. Gao and her phone number, and she is still friends with her.In this regard, she is much superior to other employees.

"Yes."

After a few seconds, Yaochen raised his head and looked at her.

"What are you still doing here? What's the matter?"

"No, I was thinking, maybe the boss had a fight with Mr. Gao." Cheng Cheng forced a smile, and expressed his thoughts, "To be honest, I care a little bit."

Recently, Yaochen always stays at the company very late. It is said that he also stays in the hotel next door after get off work.

What will happen to Mr. Gao if he breaks up with Mr. Gao?In any case, the other party was a disabled person, and Cheng Cheng couldn't help showing sympathy.Maybe it wasn't for the boss, she wouldn't be exposed to disabled people in her life.Occasionally, she wondered how they lived at home and what was going on in their hearts.This is the so-called novelty psychology.

"There's no quarrel." Yaochen looked away, and started typing on the keyboard again.

"That's good."

Cheng Cheng was about to leave, "By the way, boss, is your dog... all right? Last time there was an explosion, I don't know what happened to the puppy."

"I don't know, he should still be alive."

Feeling that such a statement was too indifferent, and it was hard to imagine the harmonious relationship between the boss and Mr. Gao, Cheng Cheng suddenly fell silent.

"Don't you know...Mr. Gao used to send me text messages asking me about your situation in the company." She whispered, "But I didn't say anything."

It's not surprising that Gao Yueguo hasn't used a mobile phone recently.

She felt that she was talking too much, and when she was about to leave the office, Yaochen called her to stop.

"What did he ask you?"

Cheng Cheng made an "ah" sound of doubt.

"May I understand?"

***

Is this unfair to Mr. Gao? Cheng Cheng, who was suddenly stunned, hesitated.Actually, as a middleman, she shouldn't let Yaochen know.

She believes that the content of the text message will affect the relationship between the two and violate Mr. Gao's privacy.

"Is it something that I can't let me know?" Yaochen gave up his office, turned his office chair to Cheng Cheng, "We are considering breaking up. If there is any secret, it's okay to say it."

Cheng Cheng answered the question in his heart.It turned out that they really had a fight, maybe not a fight, but a peaceful breakup.

Opening up the text message records, luckily the phone has a search function, she searched for Yue Guo's name, and immediately saw the content of the text messages she had with him.

"He asked...how much did you spend for him and so on. From the time he was hospitalized to later, he often asked..."

Cheng Cheng relayed.

"I told him that these things cannot be measured by money. He always cares about this issue and doesn't understand the boss's intentions at all."

Perhaps the scene of forcing his mother to pay back the money in the hospital had shocked him too much, Gao Yueguo couldn't get out of the shadow of that incident, Cheng Cheng was trying to defend Yaochen, but Yaochen's next words made her dumbfounded in surprise.

"How much did I spend for him? You should have detailed records." Yaochen asked accurately, "In addition to gifts and home expenses, only medical expenses, follow-up rehabilitation expenses, and funeral arrangements for his family are included." Expenses. The cost of raising a dog is also included, and it cost seven to eighty thousand."

"Yes..." Cheng Cheng lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yaochen turned the black pen, showing a relieved expression.

"After the calculation, you will inform him. Since we want to break up, these are the expenses that should be paid. This is the home phone number."

Cheng Cheng stood where he was.

"Yes……"

She nodded formulaically, and at the same time couldn't believe Yaochen's decision.

Just when she realized something, Yaochen said again: "There is still that money."

"what?"

"Just to send his mother's money, let him handle it by himself, don't help him."

"Ah, that 300 million."

Cheng Cheng reacted, "Tell him about this too? How could he..." How could he have so much money?

Forced to be Yaochen's subordinate, Cheng Cheng could only promise to inform.She had a hunch that this matter would hurt Gao Yueguo.

Maybe the boss doesn't really want to break up, but just uses this opportunity to stimulate the other party so that he doesn't dare to mention breaking up again. In this case, why not talk about it?There are many reasons why you don't want to break up. As long as you make it clear, the other party will definitely understand that doing so is simply a threat.Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the boss got tired of playing, got angry, and deliberately retaliated, not to mention letting Gao Yueguo know about this, he would undoubtedly feel that Yaochen's image is bad, and the chance of reconciliation is very slim.

Yaochen didn't care at all what Cheng Cheng would think of his actions.Because this is revenge, she better understand his intentions sooner.

Today he contacted Shan Zefeng's assistant. He is currently working in the investment industry, and he is not as down and out as Ban Nian and the others said. After the call, he immediately mentioned that Yueguo and himself are dating, and he wanted to know about Yueguo's past. thing.The other party also brazenly admitted that he had pursued Yueguo, but Yaochen didn't ask further, and proposed to have a chance to meet and consider cooperation, and Shan Zefeng readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Yueguo's cute and pitiful appearance annoyed him again.

He couldn't help being angry, so he broke the glass.

He had exhausted his benevolence and righteousness, and he really wanted to see what it would be like to continue to persecute the Yue Kingdom.

I have never felt such joy in controlling a person's destiny.

"The itinerary for going abroad has been set, the plane will be tomorrow afternoon. Remember to report the situation of Gao Yueguo on time, and I trouble you to keep everything secret."

"Ok."

"Also, arrange for me to meet with this person after returning home."

He wrote a note with the contact information of a man named Shan Zefeng.

"It's work."

This is a personal matter of feelings, and Cheng Cheng is always asked to help, Yaochen feels sorry.

"Shall we meet immediately after returning home?"

"Yes."

"I understand."

Cheng Cheng finally exited his office and heaved a sigh of relief.

Working for such a so-called cold-blooded boss, sometimes I really feel like I have become a demon.Now she is about to carry out the trial of Gao Yueguo, I hope he will not faint from fright.

Cheng Cheng bumped into Huang Yuhan who was delivering the materials in the elevator, and she deliberately avoided her eyes.

"Why are you frowning? Did Brother Yaochen arrange any errands for you?"

They strike up a conversation in the elevator.Cheng Cheng asked nonsensically, "Do you think Mr. Gao likes the boss?"

She knew that Yuhan was also very aware of this matter, but she never mentioned it in the company, and they would occasionally have a conversation in private.

"Why do you ask that? Isn't it obvious? He really likes brother Yaochen."

"Why are you so sure?"

"I do not know."

Maybe it's because he and I are orphans. ——Yuhan wanted to say so.She had actually felt that painful feeling herself.

"Brother Yaochen treats him so well, why doesn't he like it?"

This is what her mother said to her, and Yuhan intends to use this sentence to prevaricate.

From the attitude of getting along with Yueguo, she felt that his attachment to Brother Yaochen was real, and the feeling of loneliness, helplessness, and despair hidden deep in her heart was also real. Therefore, it was impossible for him to leave Yaochen. Brother Chen.

The elevator doors opened.Yuhan walked out of the elevator room first, which was her floor.

After verifying all the amount items, Cheng Cheng sorted out a list, and she was going to print it out and send it to Yaochen's home.

After Yaochen got on the plane the next day, Cheng Cheng took this "big gift" and went to their home.

She was really afraid to face Gao Yueguo.What she is afraid of is herself who bullies the weak and fears the hard.When I went to threaten Aunt Lin last time, I didn't feel this kind of guilt.After all, Lin Yalei took so much money and left.This time, it was a completely different situation.She had to make a phone call to confirm that Gao Yueguo was at home and that he could accept the matter. If he could not accept it, she would just leave the letter at the door.

After getting out of the car, a burst of cold hit.Cheng Cheng tightened the buttons of his coat.Still some distance away from the villa, she started making phone calls.

Hearing Gao Yueguo's voice, she explained the ins and outs.Not only have to pay off all expenses before breaking up, but also pay the 300 million that the boss sent Aunt Lin before.

Not 30, but 300.

It is impossible for ordinary people to have so much money in their lifetime.She knew Gao Yueguo was so shocked that he was speechless.

"Are you listening to me?"

Cheng Cheng took a deep breath.

"300 million?" Gao Yueguo's voice trembled.

"Yes, 300 million." Cheng Cheng said, "Why don't you try to contact Aunt Lin, maybe it's useless for her to keep it."

"Do you have her contact information?"

"I don't know how to contact her, I'm really sorry..."

When she thought of the boss telling her to "don't help him", she couldn't give Lin Yalei's contact information.

Cheng Cheng said words that she couldn't believe, she never thought that she would have such a cold day, obviously a few months ago, she took Mr. Gao to buy a puppy.

"I want to talk to Yaochen..."

"The boss is already on the plane."

"When are you coming back?"

"They say they're going for a week."

"One week...he never told me about the 300 million things..."

"Maybe there is a turnaround when you come back. You should think about what to do."

Hearing crying on the phone, Cheng Cheng hoped that Yueguo would realize that he was actually trying to comfort her.

At the entrance of the villa, another Porsche car that I had never seen before was parked, and the driver in a suit and overcoat just got out of the car. He looked like a nobleman no less than the boss.

Cheng Cheng stepped forward and asked:

"Excuse me, are you..."

"I'm a classmate of Gao Yueguo University. I heard that he lives here. Let me come and see him."

"Ah... by the way, can you give him this document for me? I won't go in. I'm Jiang Yaochen's assistant secretary."

Since he is a classmate, he should be more considerate of Gao Yueguo than his own identity.She didn't want to say something that would hurt Mr. Gao after entering the door. She had already irritated the other party on the phone just now. She was afraid that saying it in person would have a more terrible impact, so she chose to call first to confirm that Mr. Gao would not be emotionally overwhelmed.

"I will."

"thanks……"

Cheng Cheng also bowed, and the folder was transferred from Cheng Cheng to Pan Nian's hands.

***

Someone is ringing the doorbell.

Seeing Pan Nian's visit at the video doorbell, Yue Guo panicked.

"Is there a problem?"

"Gao Yueguo, I'm here to deliver materials."

"Give it to me?"

"Yes. And Yaochen has gone abroad, I will find something for him."

Thinking about the previous events, Bannian and Yaochen might rekindle their old relationship, and Yueguo had to open the door to let him in. Anyway, this is Yaochen's home.

After Pan Nian entered the house, Yue Guo found that he was also dressed very delicately today, which was obviously different from the unkempt self who was staying at home at this time.

"What happened to your eyes?" Pan Nian asked in pretended surprise.

"Accidentally bumped into the table, nothing."

Yueguo's right eye was swollen into purple, which was caused by Yaochen's violence two days ago. Originally, he just wanted to force him to shangchuang, but because of resistance, he hit the bedside table. He didn't want others to know about it.

Pan Nian took off his coat and hung it at the entrance.With a smug look, it's not difficult to imagine that he came to demonstrate, or wanted to announce his relationship with Yaochen through his expression.

"It's a nice house."

"Yeah..." Yue Guo forced a smile.

After coming to the living room, Ban Nian handed out the document. Yue Guo was sitting in a wheelchair and was about to reach out to take it, but Ban Nian withdrew his hand again.

"It's inconvenient for you to sit in a wheelchair, may I help you?"

"No...let me see for myself." Yue Guo's hand was empty, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Oh, what's going on with these lists? Could it be Yaochen's medical expenses for you?"

Pan Nian opened the file bag, took out the documents inside, and showed an expression of interest. There was no need to interpret it too much, and he understood its meaning with just a glance, because Cheng Cheng marked it clearly.

"How did he spend so much money for you. The cost of the dog?"

"Even the cost of keeping the dog is included..." Yue Guo muttered to himself.It was raised by them together, isn't it... I don't know what part Yaochen will let him return, and the inexplicable 300 million, he feels a little desperate.

Pan Nian didn't finish reading all the content, so the information was thrown into Yue Guo's hands.

"What kind of dog is it? Why haven't I seen it?"

"It's Xiaoxue."

Yueguo called out, and the puppy that was sleeping on the warm pillow on the sofa got out.

It's really a very petite toy dog. Yaochen would never keep such a dog. It seems that it is Gao Yueguo's toy alone, so it's no wonder that the cost is all on his head.

Pan Nian couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" Yue Guo suddenly became hostile.

"It's nothing, I just think this dog really matches you."

He refers to Xiaoxue's legs...

Yue Guo opened his eyes wide, and his already weak face became even paler.

This moment is definitely not the time for conflict, he silently suppressed his anger.

Afterwards, Pan Nian was about to step up the stairs.

"Are you looking for something?" Yue Guo's wheelchair followed, "Yao Chen said that no one is allowed to enter his study, and it is locked."

"Then you've never been in there?"

"I've never been in."

"You are really obedient."

From the moment Yue Guo let him into the house, he had already succeeded.Is it still difficult to get into the study?Yaochen used to put the spare key under the carpet when entering the room, he knew this very well.

Pan Nian entered the study smoothly, as if he was looking for some information, Yue Guo only dared to wait outside the door.

After a while, Ban Nian left the study, he didn't look like he had returned empty-handed, and Yue Guo didn't understand what he was looking for, and it no longer belonged to the category he should care about.

When he was about to leave, Pan Nian asked him.

"Are you planning to break up?"

"Hmm..." Just uttering one syllable is extremely difficult.

"Then you have to pack up your things quickly and move away. After being kept in custody for so long, you should be a little self-conscious."

Being said to have hit the thorn in his heart, Yue Guo looked embarrassed.

He was already raising money, except for the other 300 million in the deposit, he was at a loss, and he didn't know where to find Lin Yalei's contact information. He heard that she would not be in S City after getting Yaochen's money.Since the day Yaochen left the country, he no longer contacted him, and Yueguo could only worry about that document.

The next day was the weekend, just like the previous weekends, Shu Yan would come to learn the piano, and finally entered the right track of "learning". He began to become interested in the piano, but Yueguo had to terminate the course.After welcoming Shu Yan into the house, it was Yu Han who sent him here.Knowing that she can't teach piano lessons today, Yuhan suggested to drink tea outside. Seeing Yueguo's eyes hurt, she just went out to relax.

Yu Han and Shu Yan warmly invited her, Yue Guo didn't want her to see his emotions, so he could only agree to them.

When he came to a dessert shop in a shopping mall, Yue Guo cooperated with them and showed a smile. This is an acting skill he tried his best to show.Thinking that he will leave Yaochen soon and still owes his debts, it is impossible to be happy.If he made reconciliation with Yaochen at this time, Yaochen would definitely think that he was reluctant to act because he didn't want to pay back the money. In this case, he could only collect money to pay him back.

What about after repaying the money?How to live on?The matter of work has not yet settled, and everything has returned to the original point when the accident happened. The original pain has subsided, and new pains have followed one after another.

"Can I borrow your mobile phone?" Yue Guo asked at the dining table.

"Okay." Yuhan closed her address book and handed it out.

Yueguo started to type, and it was the first time to use a mobile phone with this system, which seemed very clumsy.The screen reflected Yue Guo's cheek, and Yu Han felt that he had something on his mind.

"Are you looking for something?"

"nothing……"

Yueguo returned the phone to her, and the screen was already a desktop.

She guessed that Yueguo was using a browser to search. She opened the browser to view the history interface, and the search keyword turned out to be the lethal dose of sleeping pills. Is there a pharmacy nearby.She was shocked.

Yueguo wouldn't want to buy sleeping pills to commit suicide, would he?Judging by the terms he searched the web for, it's likely he did.

"Is your relationship with Brother Yaochen okay?"

"It's okay." Yue Guo's voice was normal, and there was nothing wrong with it.

But no matter how much he pretended, it was useless. The web search just now had already connected him with death.

"Really?" Yuhan stared at him and asked seriously, "What do you mean by searching on my phone just now? Did Brother Yaochen quarrel with you?"

She dismissed Shu Yan and asked him to choose desserts over there.

The only person sitting opposite was Yu Han, and it seemed that she had already noticed that, anyway, she had to face it after all. Yue Guo told her the truth and told her that their relationship had broken down.But he didn't say anything about Yaochen asking him to pay back the money.

"Why? It's getting to the point of breaking up..." Yuhan pulled him to a corner of the living room to talk, "Do you really want to break up?"

Yue Guo shook his head vigorously, but said, "Really."

The reason why he doesn't want to break up is just because he is afraid of bearing the money that needs to be paid for breaking up, not because of the reluctance of love. Even if it is really because he likes Yaochen, he can't convince himself, let alone Yaochen. in sight.

In fact, he has already lived an unhappy life, and he hopes to get out of the current painful situation as soon as possible.

"Brother Yaochen is not in city S right now, can we make a decision after he comes back?" Yuhan comforted him.

"Actually... I have already packed my luggage."

"Where are you going?"

"Going back to my previous home, but I have to find a friend for help first, and I want to order a prosthetic."

Seeing Yueguo's words were like calling for help, Yuhan's heart softened for a moment.

"Brother Yaochen definitely doesn't want you to leave, it must be out of anger. Why don't you go and stay with me for two days, your old house hasn't been cleaned yet, right?"

"No. This is too much trouble for you..."

"It's okay, I'll tell Brother Yaochen. You must wait for him to come back before making a good decision. Where can you go like this?"

Yueguo should need company, Yuhan thought on her own.If Yue Guo was left alone today, something might happen to him.Yueguo wanted to reject her, but Yuhan insisted on doing so. In the end, he went to Yuhan's apartment to spend that night.
