The people coming in and out of this club were basically people in the same circle. Qu Yiming felt somewhat uneasy, so he tugged at Shutong’s hand and dragged her toward the car.
He wanted to have a good talk with her and find out what was driving her crazy!
Shutong swung her bag chain and hit Qu Yiming’s arm directly, making him frown and subconsciously let go of her.
The next second, Shutong pulled back her bag, quickly hailed a taxi on the roadside, and left.
As soon as she got in the car, Shutong heard the stern system voice.
[Destiny modification progress 3%!]
[Warning, Host, do not act rashly. You will be wiped out if your progress reaches 0!]
The system’s voice calmed Shutong down.
After a while, she responded, “You said I’ve awakened and I’m free, but you still want me to continue doing things I don’t like? Then what’s the difference between me and a tool man?”
System: [The system will analyze the risks of each of the host’s choices based on the current situation. The host shouldn’t anger the protagonists right now. The host should not provoke the hero and heroine right now. The best solution is to promote the relationship between the hero and heroine, and then consider improving your own situation.]
“So I have to continue being a tool for those two, waiting for their relationships and careers to get on track before I can start my own life? Are you sure you can handle everything? If they ever have a fight and need a peacemaker, do I have to obediently run over to them and help them? Isn’t this just the difference between being active and passive, compared to when I was controlled by the character setting before?”
The system remained silent, as if it were speechless.
At the entrance of the club, Chen Zhuo withdrew his gaze from the taxi and walked a few steps to Qu Yiming.
“Mr. Qu, what happened?”
How dare Shen Shutong treat Mr. Qu like that?
Does she want to stop working in the company?
Qu Yiming sneered, gnashing his teeth. After a moment, he glanced at the red marks on his arm from the bag chain and ordered, “Don’t let her appear in front of me again!”
Does this mean that Shen Shutong will be fired?
Chen Zhuo was a little confused, but he didn’t dare to speak and offend him, so he just nodded.
On the other side, Ji Chu and the other two also returned to the car, but given his gloomy expression, no one spoke.
Looking at the scene just now, it was obvious that Qu Yiming and Shen Shutong were arguing, and Qu Yiming was so petty that he wanted to fire her?
But they also really hope that the boss will wake up a little and stop being so soft-hearted and meddling in the troubles of that little troublemaker!
Ji Chu lowered his eyes and clicked on his phone, but he saw no notification.
Shen Shutong was a delicate person. Normally, whether she was stepped on by a passerby or bitten by an ant, she would call him, send him a message, and act spoiled at the same time. But now…
He let out a slow breath, put his phone away, and didn’t glance at it again.
***
Shutong got out of the taxi and didn’t expect that someone was waiting for her at home.
“Tongtong, where have you been? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
Lin Lanlan came up to her, a hint of worry on her pretty face.
Shutong glanced at the electronic clock on the wall. It was just past three o’clock. She had been away for not long. When had Lin Lanlan arrived?
Lin Lanlan was Ji Chu’s classmate. As a fan of trendy toys, when Ji Chu started his own business and established a trendy toy company, she took the initiative to help the company. She has always had a good relationship with Ji Chu and Shutong.
However, if Shutong remembered correctly, the plot of the novel briefly mentioned that after her death from falling from a building, during Ji Chu’s devastated period, Lin Lanlan offered herself to him, but failed.
Later, out of hatred for him, she slandered him for violating her, which ruined his reputation. Consumers and people in the industry jointly boycotted the company, so the company subsequently collapsed.
Shutong knew how self-disciplined Ji Chu was and never thought that he would have any affair with other women. So even though Lin Lanlan was always in the company, Shutong never thought much about it and even treated her as a good friend with the same hobby.
But who knew that Lin Lanlan was jealous of her to the point of madness?
“I’m out running errands.” Shutong replied casually, mentally deciding to change the door password.
Lin Lanlan had come here several times before. Shutong had even told her the password, and she had never been on guard against her.
