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

Chapter 838

Feng Wenting obviously did not expect that Mr. X would convey such news through his assistant, and her emotions were aroused again.

Her pretty face turned red and white, she gritted her teeth and glared at me, then shook off Yan Dong's hand and turned around and ran out.

"Wenting!" Yan Dong subconsciously wanted to catch up, but stopped, and then continued to look at me with sad eyes, "Nan Xu, the engagement is still too sudden, I still hope you can reconsider it..."

"What are you considering? Instead of getting engaged to a sunny and sincere boy like Xiao Ye, you're considering having a love triangle with you and Feng Wenting? Professor Yan, you used to be a good person, how did you become like this? You don't have to worry about Xuxu's affairs in the future, you should just go after your girlfriend!" Wu Ling interrupted him before he could finish and urged him to leave impatiently.

Although these words are very direct and even a bit sharp, they are all facts.

I am really tired of Yan Dong and Feng Wenting's behavior. He is always like this. Even though he is already together with Feng Wenting, he always acts like he is reluctant to leave me.

I don't need him to be attached to me at all. I just hope that he and Feng Wenting can be sweet and loving and not bother me.

Moreover, his attachment to me causes me great distress. He knows it all, but still does it. He is simply trying to hurt me on purpose.

It’s good to let him be scolded like this by Wu Ling!

Yan Dong's expression became even more embarrassed, his face turned red, and he finally ran out of the meeting room.

Wu Ling rolled his eyes fiercely at his back.

I was very concerned about Mr. X's condition, so I asked the assistant, "Is Mr. X really okay? I heard he was injured before. What was the injury? Is it serious?"

"Don't worry, Manager Meng. The gentleman is fine. He asked you not to worry too much about him." The assistant was very polite. He paused for a moment and said, "Manager Meng and Director Yuan are going to get engaged the day after tomorrow?"

I feel a little relieved that Mr. X is really fine, that's good.

"Yes, I will hold an engagement party the day after tomorrow, but please rest assured, Mr. X, I will not delay the progress of the project." I reiterated, and then added, "Mr. X has always taken good care of me, and I have always regarded him as an elder in my heart. If possible, I really want to invite Mr. X to attend my and Ono's engagement party, and we will toast him with a glass of wine together."

"Cough cough!" As soon as I finished speaking, there was another violent coughing sound from the other side.

Like Mr. X's cough.

He was coughing so badly, but his assistant said he was fine?

The assistant immediately said, "No need to toast. Let's check the time later. If there is a chance, I think Mr. will go to your engagement party. Manager Meng, Mr. Wu, Mr. is not feeling well today. Let's end our conversation here."

"Okay, please have a good rest, Mr. X." I also felt that Mr. X was indeed not in a good condition today.

The video was disconnected, and the conference room returned to silence. I turned around and grabbed Wu Ling's hand: "Sister, what kind of person is Mr. X? Have you ever met him? Do you have any photos or anything? Let me see them first. The assistant said that he will come to my and Xiao Ye's engagement party. I have to prepare for this in advance..."

Although I think Mr. X is unlikely to come as he is overseas and has been unwell recently, but since he said he might come, I should prepare in advance.

However, I quickly stopped talking: "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Something is wrong with Wu Ling.

She was actually in a daze.

Although the video call had ended, she was still staring at the screen, as if she was still looking at something.

What is she looking at and what is she daydreaming about?

"Xuxu." Wu Ling came back to her senses after hearing what I said. She called me softly in a dreamy voice, her eyes a little dazed, her brows slowly furrowed, "Do you feel that this assistant's voice is familiar?"

"Ah? Of course I'm familiar with him. Didn't this assistant appear when I had my first video conversation with Mr. X?" I was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.

My memory is still pretty good. Although Mr. X and his assistant both used voice changers, I could still tell that this assistant was the same one.

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Wu Ling frowned and shook his head. "I mean, this assistant's voice is very similar to someone around us. Although he used a voice changer, the tone, feeling, and rhythm of his speech are all similar to that person..."

"Someone around us? Who?" I was puzzled. "Isn't Mr. X far away overseas? His assistant should also be overseas. How could he be someone around us?"

"It should be like this, but I just feel that the voice is very similar, inexplicably..." Wu Ling stopped talking halfway, "Forget it, maybe my feeling is wrong, you are right, Mr. X's assistant cannot be someone close to us."

She suddenly looked up and asked me, "What did you just say? What do you want to prepare?"

"Mr. X said he would come to my and Ono's engagement party, and I wanted to prepare in advance."

"No need to prepare. He can't come. People said from the beginning that this investor is a big shot. His biggest characteristic is mystery. Haven't you seen that we have been in contact for so long, and he has not only revealed his true face, but even uses a voice changer for his voice. There are so many people at your engagement party, how could he show up in such an occasion?" Wu Ling's answer was straightforward.

I froze for a moment, then realized, "Yeah, sister, you're right. There's no way he can come."

I was confused and took Mr. X's polite words seriously. I actually thought he could come to my and Ono's engagement party.

He won't come, and I don't need to prepare in advance.

But I don’t know why, I suddenly felt a sense of loss in my heart.

When I returned to my office, Xiaoya came over to deliver some information.

After I signed, she didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, she lowered her voice and asked me, "Sister Nanxu, did Feng Wenting provoke you again?"

"Huh?" Feng Wenting did make quite a noise in the conference room at that time, but it didn't last long, so only Wu Ling and Yan Dong rushed in to take a look.

So Xiaoya and the others didn’t know what exactly happened inside.

However, looking at her current appearance, Feng Wenting and Yan Dong started making trouble again after leaving the meeting room.

"When I went to the underground parking lot to deliver some information to a client, I happened to see Professor Yan and Feng Wenting arguing there. The argument was very fierce. Professor Yan told Feng Wenting to stop making trouble and come to him if she had any problems, and not to always go against her.

Feng Wenting became even angrier, questioning Professor Yan, "If he didn't like her, why did he agree to be with her? He had already met her parents, and they were about to get engaged, but he couldn't let go of another woman. What did he think of her?"

I originally didn't want to listen to people quarreling, but when Xiaoya said this, I couldn't help but be curious.

"And then? What did Professor Yan answer?"
